Chapter 232 Meeting the Parents

Although the city outside had changed a lot, the residence of Su's parents remained unchanged, allowing Su Yao and her companions to find it easily.

In front of the mansion gate, two demons and two people stood with seemingly deep expressions, neither of them moving.

So, who will knock on the door?

Su Yu looked at Su Yao and felt that Su Yao had spent a considerable amount of time with her parents after finding them early on, and that she was close to them, so it would be suitable for her to go.

Su Yao looked at You Fujun and Su Yu. She thought that Xiao Jun was practically a goddaughter to her parents, and her brother was their biological son. They would go first and then she would go later.

You Fujun tried to deduce Feng Huaijin's identity with her eyes. As long as this demon mentioned marriage at the beginning, her uncle and aunt's attention would definitely be diverted.

Feng Huaijin remained unmoved. Although he was very eager, his parents' good first impression of him was also very important. How could someone knock on the door on behalf of someone else's son or daughter on the first meeting?

Of course, both demons and humans were still somewhat nervous.

As the situation reached a stalemate, a group of passing women glanced at them strangely: "What are those four kids standing there for?"

"I don't know, are you looking for someone or coming to visit?"

"Hey, let's send the seeds first."

Then, one of the aunties knocked on the door very naturally and called out, "Master Mu, we're on our way today, so we've brought you some new seeds."

Aunt's good friends followed along, waiting excitedly for the door to open, while Su Yu and her friends were slowly pushed aside, looking completely bewildered.

The aunt who knocked on the door was kind enough to turn around and glance at them, then added, "There are also four handsome young men, who seem to be looking for your family."

"You've arrived, thank you, Yu Niang. Which handsome young man has come to our place?" A cheerful female voice came from inside the door, and the door opened.

The two demons on the farthest edge immediately stood up straight.

Yu Niang handed the basket containing the spiritual plant seeds to Mu Wei and pointed behind her, saying, "Those four. I saw them standing at your door for quite a while without making a sound. Master Mu, take a look and see if you recognize them?"

Mu Wei followed the direction, her hand trembling slightly, but thankfully the basket was still in her elbow and hadn't fallen. She hurriedly straightened her clothes, waved to the children in the distance, and then said to the villagers around her, "I know them, I know them, it's my child who's back..."

Yu Niang said happily, "Oh, that's great! Okay, we won't disturb Master Mu any longer."

She left in a hurry with her people, making sure to call away the other onlookers.

What remains is a family and the family that will eventually become one.

Su Yao glanced at Su Yu, then grabbed his wrist and ran forward, beaming, "Mother! Look who I brought back!"

She acted so quickly and without warning that Su Yu was completely unprepared and was easily pulled away.

Mu Wei's eyes immediately reddened: "Hey! Let me see, let me see everything."

“My baby Zhenzhen is back.”

Mu Wei touched her daughter's face for a while, and then rubbed her son's cheeks, showing that she was quite fond of them.

Su Yu and Su Yao let themselves be rubbed and kneaded.

Under her mother's expectant gaze, Su Yu hesitated for a moment, mentally preparing herself, and slowly uttered a word that already felt very unfamiliar: "...Mother."

After that, everything went smoothly.

"I'm back."

"It's good that you're back. Ah, I'll have your dad cook a big meal tonight to help you recover," Mu Wei said softly. She didn't ask what he and Su Yao had been doing all these years. She simply took the arms of the two children on either side and called the other two into the house. "Xiao Jun, come on in too, and that other child too."

Su Yu turned to look at Feng Huaijin, composed herself slightly, and introduced him to Mu Wei: "Mother, this is Feng Huaijin. We became sworn brothers when we were young and supported each other. Now, he is my prospective partner."

Since you've already met and are going to introduce your partner, there's no need to hide their identity; just be who you are.

After saying that, he quickly pulled his sister into the conversation, adding, "Xiao Jun and A Yao too."

"!" Su Yao looked at him in shock and reproach.

Su Yu shifted her gaze slightly.

He said, "None of them will escape."

Mu Wei: ...? ? ?

She had been listening attentively, giving Zhenzhen—no, Zhenzhen's—familiar brother a friendly, elder-like smile, but that smile now froze.

"Ha, haha, is that so?" Mu Wei didn't know what she was saying; it was probably just a meaningless echo.

The baby's father is in grave danger!!!

Feng Huaijin politely stepped forward to greet her. With Su Yu's words as a foundation, he did not hesitate to use the identity he did not have now, since it was all him anyway: "Greetings, Godmother. This junior greets Godmother."

Following closely behind, You Fujun greeted her with a delicate, shy, and slightly uneasy look in her eyes, "Auntie, hello! Auntie, it's been so long! How are you?"

"Okay, all good, you all too," Mu Wei nodded in response, slightly dazed. "Don't stand outside, come in, come inside."

Su Yu and Su Yao exchanged a glance, then led their mother into the house on either side. Feng Huaijin and You Fujun followed behind after closing the door.

After entering the house, Su Yao looked around and asked curiously, "Where's Dad?"

Mu Wei said, "He went to reinforce the formation on the left city wall. He will be back before mealtime, not long. You sit down first, and I will go get you some snacks."

Even though they were long past the age of snacking, none of them objected. Those who wanted to go along were stopped by Mu Wei, who told them to stay put.

Mu Wei took the opportunity to grab some snacks and went outside, quickly taking out her communication stone to send a message to Su Hengqing:

After dropping the bombshell message, Mu Wei put away the communication stone, took a deep breath, smiled, and carried the snack plate back to the main room.

Those two wretches, they didn't even give a heads-up about something this big.

They really do come and go like the wind, leaving people scrambling around.

Su Yu and Su Yao originally wanted to ask their biological mother and father how they had been all these years, but after Mu Wei calmed down from her initial excitement, she stopped responding to them and instead focused on chatting with You Fujun and Feng Huaijin, or rather, trying to get information out of them.

You know your own children best. Asking Su Yu and Su Yao will only leave them speechless for ages, saying they know what they're doing and there's nothing to worry about.

But if you ask You Fujun and Feng Huaijin, not to mention that they would answer out of courtesy, Su Yu and Su Yao would probably rush to protect each other and blurt out the truth.

Mu Wei thought that since she and her husband hadn't been able to participate in their two children's growth, they shouldn't interfere too much with their children's choice of partners. However, they still needed to get to know the chosen partners well, just in case something went wrong, so they could be on guard in advance.

"Xiao Jun, when did this thing between you and A Yao start? I don't mean anything by it, I'm just curious. Tell me quietly, I won't tell anyone else."

“Xiao Jin, right? Your name is so lucky to be associated with my child. You should also tell your godmother that you thank her for being by Xiao Yu’s side all these years.”

Su Yu and Su Yao exchanged another glance. Su Yao took a break while Su Yu took her turn, since You Fujun had memories but Feng Huaijin did not.

Amidst the chaotic yet lively atmosphere, Su Hengqing, the father, returned.

He couldn't hide his excitement as he hugged his two children and wife, but he was speechless when talking to Feng Huaijin and You Fujun. He hadn't figured out how to respond, whether to say "welcome and thank you," or to warn them to be good to their children, or to say something like "please be more understanding," before Mu Wei pushed him into the kitchen.

Mu Wei transmitted her voice to him:
