Even after getting into the carriage, Mo Zhiyuan and Mo Junye still clung tightly to Yun Qingluo's clothes.

Seeing this, Mo Beichen said, "Mother must be tired from traveling. Would it be alright if Father carried you? Let Mother rest."

He was actually feeling bitter inside; the little ingrate wouldn't even let him hug her.

Upon hearing this, Mo Junye quickly released Yun Qingluo's clothes and struggled to get off Yun Qingluo's legs.

Mo Beichen then pulled the person into his arms.

"Yes, he's grown up." Mo Beichen said with a smile.

Mo Junye was a little embarrassed and wanted to get down, but Mo Beichen held him back. "Don't move. When you're ten years older, your father will be able to carry you."

Watching the interaction between Mo Junye and Mo Beichen, Mo Zhiyuan called out softly, "Father."

After shouting, she started crying, as if she had suffered some injustice.

Mo Beichen and Yun Qingluo were startled. Mo Beichen wondered to himself: Could it be that I look too scary? Did I scare you to tears?

Yun Qingluo quickly comforted Mo Zhiyuan, "Don't cry, my dear, don't cry. Tell your mother what happened? Why are you crying as soon as you see your father?"

Mo Zhiyuan cried and stretched out her hands, wanting her father to hug her.

Mo Beichen was flattered and picked her up, placing her on his other lap. "Why are you crying so sadly? Did Father make Zhiyuan cry? Father apologizes to you. Don't cry anymore, okay?"

Mo Beichen gently coaxed Mo Zhiyuan, but he felt relieved.

He was still willing to let me hold him, so it seems he wasn't scared into crying.

Mo Zhiyuan tilted her head up and kissed Mo Beichen on the cheek. "Father is so good. It's Zhiyuan's fault. Zhiyuan should apologize to Father. Waaaaah."

Yun Qingluo felt a pang of envy; indeed, a daughter is a father's warm little cotton-padded jacket.

Mo Beichen coaxed the little one for a long time before she finally choked out the reason, "I, sob sob sob, I forgot what Father looks like, sob sob sob, it's Zhiyuan's fault, Father, please don't blame Zhiyuan, okay?"

The little guy cried so hard, but Mo Beichen couldn't bear to scold him.

"It's not my fault, it's not my fault. Zhiyuan is the best. Zhiyuan forgot her father because her father didn't spend much time with her. It's not Zhiyuan's fault. From now on, her father will play with her more often, and she won't forget what her father looks like. Don't cry anymore, okay? Her father will teach you martial arts from now on." Mo Beichen pulled out his trump card.

Upon hearing this, Mo Zhiyuan stopped crying and looked at Mo Beichen with bright eyes, "Father, will you teach me martial arts?"

Mo Beichen nodded, "As long as you like it, I'll teach you."

'Thank you, Daddy, I like it, hehe. Daddy is so good.'

After appeasing Mo Zhiyuan, both of them breathed a sigh of relief.

Mo Junye looked at Yun Qingluo, "Mother, are you completely cured?"

Upon hearing Mo Junye's question, Mo Zhiyuan immediately looked nervously at Yun Qingluo.

Yun Qingluo touched her two children's faces and said with a smile, "Mother's illness is completely cured. Mother is very healthy now and will always be with you two from now on."

"Oh yeah, that's awesome!" Mo Zhiyuan couldn't hide her emotions and cheered with a smile when she heard Yun Qingluo's words.

Mo Junye pursed his lips, trying to suppress his laughter, but he couldn't bring himself to do it.

Mo Beichen smiled and ruffled Mo Junye's hair. "Laugh when you're happy, cry when you're sad. Don't hold back. Do whatever you want from now on."

Mo Junye looked up in shock; his father had changed.

"Father..." Mo Junye thought that he had done something wrong and his father was not satisfied.

Mo Beichen patted his head and said with a smile, "It's your father's fault. Your father will take responsibility in the future and make sure you have a happy childhood. Even if you are born into the imperial family, you can still be happy. Just be yourself as you please. We'll talk about it after you turn ten."

Yun Qingluo looked at Mo Beichen in surprise. He hadn't informed her about this beforehand, so why did things suddenly change so much?

They traveled all the way to the General's Mansion.

Yun Qingluo and Mo Beichen carried the two children out of the carriage.

Yun Ziheng and another familiar-looking woman were standing at the entrance of the General's Mansion.

Yun Qingluo looked closely and realized it was Yuan Qingling. Touching her slightly protruding belly, Yun Qingluo couldn't hide her surprise and joy.

It seems a lot has happened while I was away.

"Big brother, is this your sister-in-law?" Yun Qingluo stepped forward, smiling with tears in her eyes as she greeted Yun Ziheng.

Yun Ziheng's eyes were also a little red. "Yes, your sister-in-law, she always wanted to wait for you at the city gate, but I managed to persuade her not to."

Yun Qingluo smiled and said, "Big brother did the right thing. It's cold, snowing, and the ground is slippery. Sister-in-law, you must be careful."

Yuan Qingling's eyes glistened, and as she listened to Yun Qingluo's concern, tears finally fell. "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."

Yunmu and her party also got off the carriage behind them.

Yun Ziyu supported Yun's mother the whole time.

As soon as Yunmu stepped out of the carriage, her eyes remained fixed on Yun Qingluo.

Yun Qingluo turned around, smiled, and walked forward to hug her mother tightly. "Mother, I'm back. Your daughter is unfilial and has made you worry for so long."

She had noticed Yunmu's white hair long ago, and as a doctor, she could tell at a glance that Yunmu was not in good health.

It must have been from all the stress and worry she was going through, taking care of her two grandsons, that took a toll on her health.

Yunmu burst into tears again, "I was so worried about you, child, you didn't even send a message back."

Seeing his wife crying so hard, Yun's father looked worried and said, "Alright, alright, Luo Luo is back safely, that's something to be happy about. Stop crying, it'll only make you sad. They have a lot to do now that they're back, let's not cause them any more trouble."

Yun Qingluo stepped out of her mother's arms, took out a handkerchief to wipe her mother's tears, and said, "Mother, I'm not afraid of trouble. I'll take care of your health. Don't think about being lazy. You still have to help my elder brother and sister-in-law take care of their children."
