Ji Nianqin felt strange. The two children looked like people she had known before.
"I'm just guessing, it should be you two. Cao Haoyu and Cao Hanhui's childhood?"
"Sister, how do you know our mother and your uncle?"
"Huh? Could it be that you two are Cao Hanhui's children?"
"Yes, we are twins, a boy and a girl."
"That's not right. How could Cao Hanhui have a child when she's not even married?"
"They are indeed Aunt Cao Hanhui's children. We can prove it, but they have been with us since they were young and are now little beggars."
"I don't understand. Why is this happening? How could Cao Hanhui have a child? Then who is your father?"
"We don't know either, sister."
"It seems you all call me Auntie, because the word 'sister' doesn't fit our relationship. You should know that I have a very good relationship with your mother, Cao Hanhui. But why are you here? What's going on?"
"Of course it's because we don't want to cause trouble for Mama Tian."
"Brother, we have never seen our mother since we were born. Why didn't you tell us?"
"Hush, it's not that Mom doesn't want you to talk about it, it's just that you haven't seen Mom. I saw her once, when you were little."
The more Ji Nianqin listened to the children's stories, the more incredible it seemed to her. How could a grown-up girl get pregnant before marriage? This was extremely difficult to understand in ancient times, and it could even drive an unmarried girl to death.
"Your father is so irresponsible."
Unexpectedly, the prince spoke for the man, "What if the man doesn't even know about these two children? If he's drunk, it's very likely."
"What do you mean? Can you give birth to two children just by drinking too much? Of course, you need love to have children, but Ji Nianqin never told me that."
The prince seemed to be about to say something, but Ji Nianqin changed the subject and looked at the prince carefully.
"Don't you think these two kids look quite similar to you?"
"impossible."
"Why not? You often leave the palace, and appear as a woman. No wonder Cao Hanhui asked me to stay away from you when I first saw you. Also, she seemed particularly fond of you, but she didn't interact with you that much. So, the only thing that can make me completely understand is that these two children are yours, so Cao Hanhui had no choice but to send them away because you didn't want them."
"Have you watched too many modern dramas? How could something like that happen? Besides, the counselor is always by my side. Why don't you just ask him when you get back, if he's still around?"
"Yeah, I don't know how the counselor's research on the time-travel aircraft is going. If I really ask you about it when you get back, you'll be dead."
"Am I doomed? Even if these two children are mine, or even if all these unwanted children are mine, what does it matter? Because I'm a man, this is just a romantic affair at best. But women are different. They are often cursed by the world with worse words, so..."
"So Cao Hanhui is coming to Modern Times? Is she planning to explore the road for her children first? If she feels this place is good, she'll find a way to send them here?"
"It seems that earth-shaking changes must have taken place in ancient times, and she doesn't want the children to suffer..."
