607 Father and Daughter, Divination (1)
Yan Jiuchao, Yu Wan, and the others returned to the Helian Manor.
It had been a few days since the Old Madam last saw her little grandson and great-grandchildren. She was almost listless when she played cards. The moment she heard from the servants that the Eldest Young Master, Young Madam, and the Little Masters had returned to the manor, the Old Madam threw away the leaf card in her hand and walked out with her walking stick.
The first to rush into the courtyard was Dabao. In terms of stamina, his two younger brothers had never caught up to him.
However, Xiaobao was more scheming than him. Before he arrived, his voice was already raised. “Great-grandma! I miss you so much—”
The three little fellows looked alike. The old madam heard Xiaobao’s voice first before she saw Dabao, causing her to almost mistake Dabao for Xiaobao.
Fortunately, Dabao had some hair. Old Madam counted the hair whorl on his head.
One.
Yes, this was Dabao.
“Great-grandma’s little great-grandson!” The Old Madam hugged Dabao and looked at him.
“Great-grandma! Great-grandma!”
“Great-grandma! Great-grandma!”
Er’bao and Xiaobao rushed into the courtyard one after another. Unfortunately, Dabao had already filled the old madam’s arms with his chubby little body. There was no room for his two tortoise brothers to invite favor.
When the Old Madam saw her great-grandchildren, her mood improved and she breathed better. It was as if the air in the manor had become fresher.
Soon, Yan Jiuchao and Yu Wan also entered the courtyard. The Old Madam let go of her great-grandchildren and went to welcome her obedient grandson with a smile. After not seeing him for a few days, his great-grandchildren had become even darker and his little good grandson had become even fairer. How did this happen?
Of course, no matter what they looked like, Old Madam liked them.
Naturally, Old Madam did not know that they had gone to the Queen Manor to take care of the Prince Consort. When they left home back then, they said that their in-laws had come to the Capital and had brought the children to visit him.
Actually, it had only been a few days since they left, but the old madam felt that it had been a few years. She had missed them so much.
The Old Madam pinched her grandson’s face and said happily, “It’s good that you’re all back. How is the in-law? Why didn’t he come back with you?”
It was not wrong to say that Yan Jiuchao’s biological father was the in-law of the Helian family.
The Prince Consort had his own plans. Back then, there were still some truths that he needed to carefully investigate. Since the Emperor could not remember him for the time being, he could do his own things in peace.
Yan Jiuchao sent Shadow Thirteen and Shadow Six to follow him.
“Grandma, look at me too.” Yu Wan squeezed her little head in front of the Old Madam.
The Old Madam looked at her reluctantly. It was really just a glance. Then, she snorted and turned her face away. What was so good about an ugly granddaughter-in-law? She’s not her biological child~
Of course, although the Old Madam despised the “ugly granddaughter-in-law”, she was impeccable with her treatment. When Yu Wan returned to the room, she found that she had seventeen to eighteen more sets of good-looking clothes. The jewelry that she had only worn once was all thrown into the storeroom by the Old Madam and changed to new ones.
In the old madam’s original words, “She’s so ugly. If she doesn’t dress up well, I’m afraid my little grandson won’t want her anymore.”
Yu Wan was about to cry.
After greeting the Old Madam, the group went to Helian Beiming’s courtyard to greet Uncle. The three little black eggs were hung on the wheelchair without a word.
“Big Grandpa, Big Grandpa, Xiaobao has been gone for so long. Did you miss Xiaobao?” Xiaobao loved to hear people say that they liked him and missed him.
Helian Beiming said dotingly, “Of course I do.”
“Then does that mean you miss Xiaobao the most?” Xiaobao asked cutely.
Helian Beiming laughed. “I missed all of you.”
“Aiya.” Xiaobao sighed in disappointment. “But I miss Big Grandpa the most.”
Yu Wan smiled. “You’ve said this to Great-Grandma too.”
Xiaobao felt terrible after his mother exposed him.
Xiaobao always liked to fight for the best in everything: The most obedient baby, the youngest baby, the most likable baby, the smartest baby… Er’bao knew how to pretend to be obedient better than him. In the end, he was the one who was praised the most.
Moreover, compared to Xiaobao, who always asked if they missed him, Er’bao’s greetings were much richer. “Big Grandpa, are you alright? How did you eat? Did you sleep well? The weather is turning cold, you need to put on more clothes…”
Listen, listen, this was the most sensible baby.
After his mother exposed him, Xiaobao let his scheming second brother steal the limelight.
Dabao still did not speak.
Yu Wan was puzzled from time to time what this kid would say.
… .
On the other hand, the matter of deposing the Queen had become more and more unresolved in the commoners and the court. The Emperor could not really ignore it. After Nangong Yan moved out of the Queen Manor, he returned to the palace to attend court.
