Han Luoxue looked intently at her, her expression serious and earnest: "Mengmeng, don't worry, Mom will never leave you for such a long time again! Even if Mom has important things to do, Mom will never leave you alone. Mom promises that she will never leave you again!"

I don't know if Mengmeng understood or not, but her little hand never let go.

Han Luoxue then realized that the four- or five-month-old baby had surprisingly strong hands.

Yunniang watched with heartache, saying, "Xue, don't worry too much. Mengmeng and Zhuangzhuang are just feeling insecure. They'll be fine in a couple of days!"

"They'll probably be even more clingy to you after they wake up from their nap!"

Han Luoxue sighed: "When I left, I just felt that they were both too young and it would be inconvenient to take them with me! Besides, I didn't know where we were going or if we would encounter any dangers on the way... Otherwise, I would have wanted to take them with me!"

She can temporarily put children in her space, but that's at a high price.

Although she has quite a few points now, she still needs to be careful with them. Who knows when the system shop will refresh with items she really needs, or things she might use in the future? Han Luoxue will definitely grab those items in advance. After all, many of them don't exist in this world and are highly sought after.

Like some detoxifying pills or antidote pills, they are very versatile and all-purpose.

This time, if it weren't for the antidote pill, who knows what would have happened.

Yunniang nodded approvingly. There were some things she didn't understand, but she grasped the underlying principles. Her daughter was right; all she had to do was listen carefully and follow her instructions.

"How are Madam Chi and the others?"

While playing with the child, Han Luoxue asked, seemingly casually.

"It's going well. I've been trying to use an embroidery needle recently."

Han Luoxue was taken aback: "She's so old, can she still hold an embroidery needle?"

The golden age for women to do embroidery is generally not long; many women start to decline in their skills in their thirties.

However, Madam Chi is well over thirty years old.

"Sure, she's at home anyway, so let her do it if she likes it!"

Yunniang was quite open-minded and even wanted to bring Sixiu Pavilion back. When she was little, Old Madam Chi and the others had treated her very well, and the place held too many beautiful memories for her. Not for anyone else's sake, Yunniang didn't want Sixiu Pavilion to fall into obscurity.

However, she knew her daughter was quite busy, and there were already many troubles in the palace. She was no longer the peasant woman she used to be, and she wanted to solve the problems with her own courage.

In fact, the General's Mansion also wanted to help her take over that shop, but Yunniang refused.

"Whatever. Mother, please let me know if there's anything you need me to do. I'm not good at embroidery, but I can do other things!"

Han Luoxue didn't forget to give a word of advice, and Yunniang smiled gently: "Mother knows!"

"Xue'er, actually, your mother has grown up now, and she can do many things. If there's anything you need, you can tell me, and maybe I can help you in some way."

Yunniang smiled gently, and Han Luoxue looked at her confident mother, her heart filled with mixed emotions.

I suddenly remembered that when I first arrived, my mother's mental state was really bad; anyone who didn't know better would think she was about to die at any moment.

Back then, my mother was frighteningly thin, her pale face devoid of color, and she was listless. Sometimes, she wouldn't even recognize someone passing by.

She was already emaciated, and she had to feed her younger brother with her own blood every day. If she hadn't come in time, her mother might have died long ago.

Han Luoxue shook her head; in the past, she didn't want to think about it too much. Actually, she still had to blame her dear aunt.

If it weren't for her, how could my mother have suffered so much?

It's been so long, and we still don't know where Chi Ling'er is hiding. We still haven't caught her.

No, she had to tell her men to hurry up.

Han Luoxue's plan was good, but she didn't tell Yunniang about it. She decided to wait until they found the person before making a decision.

We should also find Chi Qingqing so that she and her daughter can meet.

"I knew Mom was the best to me!" Han Luoxue smiled happily. "Let them bring my younger brother and sister over later, and Dad too. Let's have a meal together today!"

Yunniang hurriedly shook her head: "Xue girl, listen to me, this is not appropriate!"

Ouyang Zhen hasn't returned to the palace yet, and his family members can't stand the restrictions. Even though there are no outsiders, they don't enjoy their meals here.

"Why don't we go out to eat? Let's go to our little courtyard and take Zhuangzhuang and Mengmeng with us! They haven't left the palace in a long time!"

I don't know if the two little ones understood what the adults were saying, but they were kicking their little feet hard, and you could tell they were extremely happy.

Seeing their excited expressions, Han Luoxue shook her head helplessly and told her subordinates to pack up and prepare to take them out together.

...

"I can't believe you actually went to the border!" Even now, when she heard the news, Madam Chi still couldn't believe it.

There's a war going on at the border. Yunniang's children actually went to help fight the war; if someone else had told her this, she definitely wouldn't have believed it.

Can……

And then there was her son-in-law, who was originally an official, which shocked her greatly. Now that she was told that her son-in-law had also gone to fight in the war, Old Madam Chi felt that everything was unreal.

What happened to the promise of a simple, uneducated man from the countryside? Wasn't he supposed to be completely unacceptable? Now, the son she painstakingly raised is locked up, with no end in sight. And her son-in-law is not only an official, but he's even fighting on the front lines! The old lady felt a bit exhausted.

She had complained to her husband more than once about the problems with their parenting, but unfortunately, the two children were already grown up and could no longer be relied upon. Even if she regretted it, there was no way to make up for it.

Now, all we can rely on is our youngest daughter.

"Yeah, I didn't expect that at first either! I knew Brother Yuan would amount to something, but I never thought he would actually go to war!"

Although Yunniang was worried, she spoke of it with a face full of pride.

"And then there's Yu'er and Mengze. They're still just kids, yet they go out to fight without the slightest fear. Sometimes I feel they're much stronger than me. As their mother, I'm always worrying about this and that at home, and I'm not as good as my children!"

If she had known earlier, she definitely would have gone with them. Yunniang secretly made up her mind; everyone in her family was making progress, and she wanted to work hard too.

Even if you can't be a support for your children, you absolutely cannot hold them back.

"Yunniang, I'm so sorry!" Old Madam Chi felt terrible. If she hadn't lost Yunniang back then, Yunniang wouldn't have suffered so much.

"Mother, it's all in the past, don't think about it anymore! Let's hurry up and pack up. Xue'er and the child are coming over, there's still a lot to pack!"

Madam Chi nodded hurriedly, "There are two dishes that you especially loved to eat when you were little. I'll go to the kitchen myself in a bit, and maybe Xue'er and the others will like them too!"
