After Dugu Xin agreed to Ye Xiaoxiao's help, everyone discussed the follow-up matters.
Afterwards, Dugu Xin personally took his family of four to visit the capital of Dayu for a few days, and bought many small items that the two children liked.
After spending a few days together, the two children have become very fond of him, especially Shangguan Yang.
He knew that this man was his future father-in-law and a good friend of his mother, so he became a little more curious about him.
Over the past few days, he has been observing Dugu Xin's every move from time to time.
Dugu Xin was not as strict with him as Shangguan Lingyun, and he would not be jealous of him or scheme against him.
Shangguan Yang felt that he got along very well with Dugu Xin, and Shangguan Nuan also liked Dugu Xin very much.
Knowing that Shangguan Nuan liked weapons, Dugu Xin specially collected many weapons suitable for girls for her.
Looking at the rows of exquisite weapons, as well as various toys, books and other items, Ye Xiaoxiao couldn't help laughing.
"You're spoiling them too much. Besides, how are we going to carry so many things back?"
Dugu Xin chuckled, "Tomorrow I'll have the people from the Number One Village in the World send these things back first."
"By the time you return from your travels, I'm sure all these things will have arrived."
Ye Xiaoxiao actually wanted to say that there was no need to go through so much trouble, but when she thought that Ye Sheng and the others were going to come to Dayu, she did not refuse.
"That's fine. When Fourth Brother and the others come, they'll need to bring a lot of things with them. We can ask them to help transport the things back."
Dugu Xin smiled and nodded, while Ye Xiaoxiao took the two children by the hand.
"All good things must come to an end. We've been bothering you for so long, it's time for us to go back."
Dugu Xin and Qin Yuan nodded, and then personally escorted them to the palace gate.
"We'll meet again soon. See you later."
"See you later."
The family of four got on the carriage. Tianxuan and Wang Xiao took turns driving, and everyone set out on the journey back to the city again.
However, unlike the time they came here, this time they went to Cangwu Mountain and then to Lincheng to meet Wang Lin.
Wang Lin had already risen through the ranks from the magistrate of Lincheng County to become the city defender of Lincheng.
They turned again and went to the foot of Nanshan Mountain, looking at the village which was not beautiful before but was the place where they met.
They traveled around, visiting various places where they had once collected herbs for the children.
For example, Luancheng, Maoshan, Xichengshan, and other places that the couple had never been to.
It took them four months to make the journey. When they came back, their little daughter Yueyue had already started babbling and wanted to communicate with others.
"Oh my, my dear great-grandson and great-granddaughter, how come you've been gone for so long? I missed you so much."
Shangguan Yang and Shangguan Nuan have grown much stronger than before and can speak much more fluently.
"Grandmother, we miss you so much."
"Grandma Toffee, we miss you too."
The two little guys were like young swallows flying into the arms of the empress dowager, one threw himself into the arms of the empress dowager, and the other threw himself into the arms of Concubine Jing.
They hugged and kissed each other, then swapped places, hugged and kissed each other again, which made the two old people very happy.
"Oh my, Yangyang and Nuannuan have grown taller and prettier. Did you have fun outing this time?"
The two little guys chattered with the two of them. Shangguan Lingyun and Ye Xiaoxiao looked at the two old people with some embarrassment as they only talked to the children but ignored them.
After a long time, Ye Xiaoxiao spoke awkwardly.
"Yangyang, Nuannuan, where are the gifts you brought for the two grandmothers? Why don't you show them to them quickly?"
Upon hearing this, the two little guys ran to get the gifts. Ye Xiaoxiao and Shangguan Lingyun then saluted them.
The two of them snorted coldly, and then the Queen Mother spoke first.
"You still remember to come back? I have never seen an emperor or empress like you."
The two of them smiled awkwardly, and Shangguan Lingyun said a few nice words to coax them into silence.
"Forget it, you won't leave again this time, right?"
Ye Xiaoxiao quickly assured, "I'm not leaving, I'm not leaving."
The Empress Dowager and Concubine Jing nodded in satisfaction and handed Shangguan Yue to them.
"If you don't come back, this kid won't recognize you."
The two men took their daughter in, held her and coaxed her for a while, then talked with the Queen Mother and the other two for a while, and then took their daughter back.
Seeing the bedroom she hadn't seen for a long time, Ye Xiaoxiao couldn't help feeling emotional, while Shangguan Lingyun held her in his arms and spent the whole night in the bedroom.
The next morning, Shangguan Lingyun went to the morning court, while Ye Xiaoxiao met with all the female relatives.
There was nothing major happening in the morning court session, except for a brief mention of the transfer of Ye Sheng and others.
Then he announced the engagement between the crown prince and Princess Dayu to all the ministers.
In the evening, everyone met again and the children were brought over.
Ye Xiaoxiao met them one by one and chatted with them about family matters. When she learned that Qin Xue was pregnant again, Ye Xiaoxiao was very happy.
"You all should work hard to have both sons and daughters. Then, you can marry your children to each other, which will make the relationship even closer."
Everyone was reunited after a long separation, and the atmosphere was naturally joyful.
The palace banquet lasted until late at night, and everyone left reluctantly.
"There's nothing to be sad about. Bring your children to the palace more often in the future. When they grow up, they can come and accompany Yangyang as study companions."
Everyone agreed with a smile and then left.
The days that followed were relaxing and comfortable. Every day I either accompanied my children as they grew up or accompanied them in their studies.
Pleasant days always pass quickly, and in the blink of an eye, Shangguan Yang has reached adulthood.
