General's Mansion.
After lunch, the family all stayed in Nangong Yunxue's Ruixueyuan, chatting and talking.
"I'm back!
Where is my aunt? Where is my aunt..."
A burst of cheers reached everyone's ears.
"The little troublemaker is back!"
Chu Ruoyan smiled and said, "Xue'er, it's your sister-in-law and her son."
Nangong Yunxue wanted to get out of bed when she heard this, but was stopped by Chu Ruoyan.
"Just sit still on the bed and don't move around. Be careful not to get caught in the wind and get sick."
As soon as he finished speaking, a boy about four or five years old rushed into the room.
"Aunt, aunt, guess what Zhier brought for her sister?"
Nangong Yunxue looked at the little guy carefully. The boy had a chubby face and a smart look.
"Zhi'er? Your name is Zhi'er?"
"Yes, my name is Nangong Zhi, and you are my aunt?"
Nangong Yunxue smiled and nodded: "Yes, I am your aunt."
Nangong Yunsheng patted Nangong Zhi's little butt: "Why don't you salute quickly?"
Nangong Zhi quickly put away his impulsive look and saluted politely: "Zhi'er greets auntie, welcome home!"
Nangong Yunxue waved her hand: "Zhi'er, be good, come here and let your aunt take a good look."
Nangong Zhi rushed forward, and Nangong Yunxue touched Nangong Zhi's head: "Zhi'er is so good-looking, and you can tell at first glance that he is a lovely child.
Come, tell your aunt, how old are you?"
"Four years old."
"Are you the only one back?"
"Mom and brother are still behind, Zhier runs faster. Aunt, look, Zhier brought some goodies for his sister."
As the little fellow spoke, he took out a bulging handkerchief from his bosom as if presenting a treasure, unfolding it layer by layer to reveal what was inside.
In the middle of the handkerchief lay a few candies and cakes.
"I heard that my aunt brought back a younger sister, so I secretly pretended to be a girl and brought her back when no one was paying attention.
Don’t worry, I guarantee no one will see it.”
As soon as Zhi'er said something sneaky, everyone couldn't help laughing.
"Ha ha……"
"Everyone is laughing so happily, is Zhi'er up to something weird again?"
A gentle woman with a peaceful smile on her face walked in gently, holding the hand of a slightly older boy.
The people who came were none other than Xu Taifu's daughter, Nangong Yunsheng's wife Xu Feiyan, and their six-year-old eldest son Nangong Rui.
Compared to Nangong Zhi's liveliness, Nangong Rui seems much more calm.
After greeting everyone like a little adult, he took his mother's hand and walked to the bed.
The two brothers leaned over the bed and looked at the sleeping Nangong Jiu: "Sister!"
Xu Feiyan sat on the edge of the bed and said, "Sister, I've been waiting for you for a long time, and I finally have you home."
Nangong Yunxue bowed slightly.
"I'm sorry to have caused my sister-in-law to worry!"
"Sister, we are a family, and we should not have different opinions.
Come, let sister-in-law hold the child."
Xu Feiyan picked up Nangong Jiu and said, "This child looks like his sister. He inherited his sister's good looks. The newborn is so beautiful."
Nangong Zhi tugged at Xu Feiyan's sleeve anxiously: "Mom, sister, my sister looks different from us."
"All newborn babies are like this. When you were born, you looked like a little old man, with a wrinkled face."
Nangong Zhi shook his head like a rattle: "Zhi'er doesn't look like an old man. My great-grandfather said Zhi'er looks very energetic."
Then he stretched out his hand and said, "Zhi'er, you want to hug your sister too."
"No, your sister is too small. You can only hold her when you are older."
"Tomorrow?"
"When you grow up to be as big as your brother, you can hold me."
Six-year-old Nangong Rui looked expectant after hearing this.
Xu Feiyan glanced at her sensible eldest son and said, "Rui'er, do you want to hug your sister?"
"Is Rui'er okay?"
"Okay, come and sit here." Xu Feiyan patted the seat next to her gently.
Nangong Rui sat down obediently. Xu Feiyan put Nangong Jiu in her son's arms and taught him the correct way to hold a baby.
"Hold on tight, don't fall!"
Nangong Rui held Nangong Jiu carefully.
Xu Feiyan taught her two sons: "You are the older brothers. You must take care of your younger sister and protect her in the future."
"Okay, I remember. If there are any delicious or fun things, give them to my sister first." Nangong Rui looked at Nangong Jiu and promised with a smile.
"Me too!"
The whole family looked at the two sensible brothers and nodded with satisfaction.
Nangong Yunxue looked at Nangong Yunsheng and Xu Feiyan: "Big brother and sister-in-law have taught our two nephews very well!"
Nangong Honglie nodded in agreement.
"The eldest's two children are indeed sensible."
Soon, two more children rushed in, and a woman followed them into the house with big strides.
Chu Ruoyan smiled and introduced: "This is your second sister-in-law Zhou Yuyao, the daughter of a thousand-household chief under your second brother.
The two siblings are Nangong Jing and Nangong Ting, twins, four and a half years old.
Another round of greetings.
Nangong Jiu, who was sleeping, was taken over by Zhou Yuyao, and he was surprised for a while.
Nangong Ting touched Nangong Jiu's little feet through the swaddling clothes.
"My sister's feet are so small!"
Nangong Jiu's feet are very ticklish, and he woke up after moving them.
Several children gathered around and shouted happily: "Sister is awake! Sister is awake..."
Nangong Jiu stared at the enlarged little faces, stretched out his little arms happily and scratched around, finally grabbing a little finger.
"My sister grabbed my hand." Nangong Zhi shouted with joy.
Xu Feiyan hurriedly reminded: "Don't move, be careful not to hurt your sister, just let her hold on."
The children were happy and the adults had endless things to say. The whole family was talking and laughing, and they were having a great time.
