Chapter 229 An Family Brothers and Sisters
The next day, the Qin Mansion was bustling early.
Qin Shu was so excited that she didn't sleep much all night.
For her, the return of Xiao Si and Xiao Wu was one of the few things worth looking forward to in recent days.
When the sky was bright, Qin Shu couldn't wait to ask the second brother to go to the city gate to pick up the two younger brothers.
Qin Qixuan understood his mother's anxiety, so he simply packed up and prepared to set off.
"Mom, the second brother and I are going to pick them up!"
Qin Xixi also got up early today. As soon as she opened her eyes, she heard the noise outside. She hurriedly walked out trembling and babbling and was about to go forward.
[Take Xixi with you! Xixi also wants to pick up the fourth and fifth brothers! ]
Xixi's little face wrinkled up, making people look pitiful.
The third child originally got up because he had to go to school later. When he heard that the fourth and fifth children were coming back, he also wanted to go with them.
"Mother, I haven't seen the fourth and fifth children for a long time. I almost forgot what they look like. Please let me go too!"
If it was only the third child who begged, Qin Shu would definitely refuse without blinking an eye.
But little Xixi also begged for mercy, wanting to see the fourth and fifth brothers very much.
Qin Shu sighed and explained.
"The fourth and fifth children are almost at the city gate. Your eldest and second brothers can ride horses and are fast. If we take you two with us, I'm afraid we will have to drag another carriage. You just wait quietly in the mansion and don't cause any trouble."
This sentence tacitly allowed the third child to stay in the mansion and wait for the fourth and fifth children to come home. The third child immediately happily hugged Xixi and spun around.
Qin Shu asked Qin Qiting if they wanted to take a day off to get to know the two brothers.
Qin Qiting thought for a while and decided to let the four brothers catch up first, and he would come back after school.
So the second brother and Qin Qixuan went to the city gate to pick up the fourth and fifth children, while Qin Qiting took Yang Haixin to school.
Qin Qixuan and the others were really fast.
After a while, they brought the fourth and fifth children back home.
Qin Shu was excited, but she noticed that there was a carriage behind them, which didn't seem to be with the fourth and fifth children.
Qin Xixi looked at the two familiar yet unfamiliar faces in front of her, and was very curious.
Although she had a headache before about these two brothers coming home, but now when she really saw them, she couldn't help but feel a little excited because blood is thicker than water.
These two brothers and the third brother are twins. Although the three of them don't look exactly the same, they have many similarities, so Xixi can recognize them at a glance.
Although the fourth and fifth brothers were born later than the third brother, maybe it's because they have experienced life outside, the two of them look much more mature than the third brother.
No wonder people say that those who have been to school look clear and stupid!
Several people giggled at Xixi, thinking that she had met two new brothers and laughed happily.
Qin Shu watched the four brothers reminiscing and couldn't help showing a relieved expression on her face.
But she knew there were some things that she couldn't talk about with them here, so she made an excuse to go to the kitchen and took Xixi away.
Xixi protested when she was taken away.
She hadn't seen clearly what the person her brother brought back looked like, and she couldn't listen to all the gossip. No!
Xiao Si and Xiao Wu were still reluctant to see Xixi leave.
Xiao Wu muttered to himself again.
"Oh, you're curious about your sister too!"
But they didn't talk for long, because everyone was curious about who Xiao Si and Xiao Wu brought.
Xiao Si then began to introduce the people he brought.
"They are a family we met on the road. By chance, something happened and we decided to go back with them."
"The elder brother is An Yuesheng and the younger sister is An Yueya. They are the legitimate sons and daughters of the An family."
An Yuesheng had been silent and lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking. It was not until Xiao Si mentioned him that he came forward to introduce himself.
"I am An Yuesheng, the legitimate son of the An family."
He explained it for fear that some people did not know which family the An family was.
"The An family is the mother's family of the current Concubine An in the palace."
Qin Qixuan suddenly realized it.
The surname An is not a rare surname in Daliang, so he did not react for a while.
In fact, the An family itself is not a noble family. Concubine An's father is a general stationed at the border, but his military performance is mediocre and not as famous as Helian Shi and Fu Yan.
The reason why the An family came to power was because of Concubine An.
If Xiao Xixi was still alive, she would definitely remember that Concubine An was one of the concubines who had competed for favor in the palace before, but she was only a concubine at that time. This time, she became a concubine.
The last time Concubine An offended the emperor, she saved the emperor at the cost of her life, which earned the emperor's forgiveness.
After a night of favor, Concubine An became pregnant, and now she has a prince. When the baby was born, the emperor took him away for a blood test. After confirming that it was indeed his own prince, the emperor promoted Concubine An to the position of concubine. The emperor, in consideration of Concubine
An's hard work in giving birth to a prince, allowed General An's two children to enter the palace to accompany Concubine An during the New Year.
Qin Qixuan was in the court, keeping an eye on everything. This time, when he heard the two people say that they were from the An family, he understood.
But...
he looked at the An brothers and sisters with suspicion in his eyes.
He always felt that he seemed to have seen the two there...
Not to mention Qin Qixuan, even the third child felt that the two had a strong sense of déjà vu, but he didn't know where this feeling came from.
Before the two of them thought about it, the fourth child added.
"These two people are very dull. The reason we traveled together was because we met them on the road. The two of them stood up for a young lady, but they were too weak and were bullied by the group of bullies. I couldn't stand it, so I saved them."
The fifth child muttered in confusion after hearing this.
"I don't know what the An family was thinking. They just let them come by themselves without even equipping them with guards."
Xiao Si nodded in agreement.
"We heard that their destination this time was also the capital, so we let them go with us."
Xiao Si and Xiao Wu have been in contact with people from the underworld since they were young, so they are chivalrous and courageous. Saving a family while traveling is not a strange thing.
Qin Qixuan pondered for a while, and still asked hesitantly.
"You two really look familiar. I wonder if we have seen you there?"
An Yuesheng was a little surprised, but still answered politely.
"My brother and I have always lived outside the country. If Young Master Qin has been to the border, we may have seen him."
