As far as the eye can see, this is a quaint and elegant boudoir.

The mosquito net swayed gently in the breeze, creating soft ripples. The air carried a faint fragrance, and sparrows chirped merrily as they hopped on the branches outside the window.

He got out of bed peacefully, pushed open the window, and golden sunlight streamed in. Outside, there were birds singing and flowers fragrant.

It is spring now.

From the original owner's memory ball, it can be known that the original owner seemed to have been betrothed to the son of Marquis Yong'an this spring.

Three days ago, Anran accidentally obtained a transmigration system. The system displayed that although she could live to the average lifespan, her beloved grandfather, who had been in pain all his life, would not live past a year. And this transmigration system rewarded with life expectancy. The awarded life expectancy could also be gifted to others.

Anran didn't want her grandfather to die, so she agreed to the quick travel system's proposal, entering a mission world to help some people whose wishes were granted to fulfill their last wishes and gain life expectancy rewards.

System tasks are classified into five levels: white, green, blue, purple, and orange, based on their difficulty. As a newcomer, you can only accept white tasks. After completing a white task, you will be rewarded with ten days of lifespan. Although the number of days may seem small, the difficulty is low, and it allows you to learn and practice various things in this low-difficulty environment. Once you have accumulated enough experience, you can tackle more challenging tasks. Therefore, Anran did not mind and accepted the system's recommended beginner task, which was said to be particularly easy.

After receiving the wisher's memories, I have to say, the system-recommended task is indeed simple.

Originally named Xu Anran, at the age of fifteen, she became betrothed to the son of the Duke of Yong'an and soon married into the Duke of Yong'an's mansion.

The Crown Prince of Yong'an was unrestrained and indulged in pleasure at Qinlou Chu Guan, to the point that he contracted a venereal disease within a few years. He also infected Xu Anran, causing him to contract the same debilitating illness and die young from its torment.

The pain of death was pitiful, and life wasn't happy either. This made Xu Anran, who had died, reflect on his life, naturally giving rise to resentment. Later, by chance, he encountered a fast-travel system that claimed to fulfill wishes. The person who obtained the system would help fulfill the wisher's desire, so Xu Anran wished for someone to help him live a peaceful and safe life until old age. This eased some of his resentment, allowing him to reincarnate without regrets.

As long as she doesn't marry the son of Duke Yong'an, she lives a peaceful life until she grows old. This can fulfill her wish for peace and quiet, and more importantly, since the original host hasn't been betrothed yet, it's very easy to change her fate. Even if she was betrothed, it wouldn't be until after she got married that he would come over. Look, this mission is so simple, no wonder it's a beginner task.

After learning the situation, An Ran felt relieved. She thought as long as she hadn't agreed to the marriage proposal from Yong'an Houfu, this matter should be easy to resolve.

Just as she was thinking this, the maid Xiao Que entered and said, "Miss, madam is calling for you."

Anran nodded and said, "Understood."

Then, she followed the magpie to see Mrs. Xu.

Mrs. Xu was a woman in her late thirties, well-preserved with a slightly plump face. When she saw Anran enter, she broke into a smile and said, "Child, the day after tomorrow is the flower banquet at Yong'an Houfu. I've had some clothes and jewelry sent over for you to choose from. Pick out whichever you like."

The Xu family has fallen on hard times these years. They can't even afford to keep a seamstress. The needlework done by the maids and servant women is enough for everyday wear, but if they need to go out in fine clothes, the work isn't up to par. They have to go to a tailor shop to get it done.

"Alright," An Ran said happily, nodding.

This joy is not put on, but modern times are popular in retro styles. Many people want to buy a set of ancient costumes and accessories to wear, but this costs money. Inferior products don't look good; good ones are expensive and unaffordable. Now that there are these high-quality ancient costumes and accessories right here, allowing An Ran to choose at will, how could she not be happy?

As for going to the Yong'an Hou Mansion, I don't worry at all. After all, it's not yet time for the betrothal ceremony, and I don't have to treat the Yong'an Hou Mansion as a den of tigers and dragons just yet.

At this moment, Anran followed Madam Xu's instructions and chose a beautiful outfit and jewelry. Seeing that Anran had chosen well, Madam Xu instructed again: "In two days, go to the Duke of Yong'an's mansion. You must perform well and try to make the young master like you, understand?"

Anran thought about her own mission and began to probe the mistress's opinion, saying: "Mother, I don't want to marry that Prince Yong'an. I heard he sleeps with flowers and willows all day long, indulging excessively. Such a man, how can he be a good husband?"

Mrs. Xu heard her daughter say this and couldn't help but laugh, "Silly girl, which man isn't flawed? Whether it's one person or a group, what difference does it make? As long as your legal wife status is secure, when you give birth to a child who inherits the title, what difference would others make?"

Anran listened to Madam Xu's words and was speechless.

It should have occurred to me earlier.

From Xu Anran's memories, it can be seen that the Xu family has always wanted to marry into the Yong'an Houfu, so wanting their daughter to climb high is very normal. But Anran originally thought, she couldn't think too badly of people, maybe Madam Xu didn't know the character of the Eldest Son of Yong'an Hou, she just wanted to climb high, so she wanted to marry Xu Anran into Yong'an Houfu. That way, it wouldn't be a big mistake, at most it would be considered not discerning people. Now it seems, it's not as simple as not discerning people, it's clearly for climbing high, knowing that the other party is not a good thing, but also wants to push their daughter into the fire pit, and they don't even care about whether their daughter lives well or not.

Knowing this, An Ran's view of Xu's wife plummeted to the bottom.

However, if the original parents are truly depraved and regardless of the man's character, they only want to associate with the wealthy and powerful for social climbing, then it seems difficult to call off this marriage.

I thought it was a simple task, saying they wouldn't agree. But looking at this, the original parents, in order to climb up to the Yong'an Hou's family, are a thousand times ten thousand willing. They want their daughter to marry the son of the Yong'an Hou.

This is a bit difficult.

Even such a simple task has its difficulties, it seems that I need to be more careful in the future and not be too confident.

Anran knew why the Xu family wanted to marry into Yong'an Houfu. After all, the Xu family was going downhill and needed connections.

The Xu family wasn't newly rich, but they weren't an old established family either—they rose to prominence with their great-grandfather's generation.

Xu Anran's great-grandfather was a top scholar in his time, ranking second on the list. After that, he did very well, rising all the way to become a Grand Councilor.

It is a pity that the son of a tiger is not necessarily a tiger. Xu Anran's grandfather and father were not scholarly men, and the Xu family gradually declined. Fortunately, Xu Anran's brother is quite capable and is now a juren (a degree awarded in imperial examinations). The entire family has placed their hopes on his elder brother, Xu Jiang, hoping that he will soar to success and bring back the glory of the Xu family.

—Although Xu Jiaming knew that the Yong'an Marquis's son was unrestrained, he still insisted on marrying his daughter Xu Anran to him. This was because he had seen the influence of the Yong'an Marquis's family.

The sister of the Prince of Yong'an could be a noble concubine in the palace. If they were to marry into the Yong'an Houfu, it would be extremely beneficial for Xu Jiang's future.

An Ran looked at Madam Xu's words, thinking that it would be difficult to directly refuse this marriage proposal. But it didn't matter, there were other ways.
