Chapter 482 Returning Home
The next day was the day when Yuan Ziyu returned home after three days.
Early in the morning, Huo Xifei brought the return gift and accompanied Yuan Ziyu back to the Yuan family.
Yuan Zian and Yuan Zining had been waiting at the gate of the Yuan Mansion since early in the morning. When they saw Huo Xifei riding a tall horse, guarding Yuan Ziyou's carriage, Yuan Zian couldn't help but smile and nodded, while Yuan Zining went to greet him with a smile and proudly called out to Huo Xifei, "Brother-in-law."
Huo Xifei raised his eyebrows. Yuan Zining was really getting cocky. Looking at his smug look, it was not the time for him to be beaten to a pulp by him. However, he really had to call him "Second Brother" now, and he would have a sparring match with him later when he had time.
"Second brother." Huo Xifei raised the corner of his mouth and shouted at Yuan Zining.
Yuan Zining didn't know why, but she suddenly shuddered, blinked, and quickly changed her focus. She said to Yuan Ziyu in the carriage, "Little sister, grandma and my parents are always thinking about you. They've been waiting for you to come back today."
"Second brother." Yuan Ziyu opened the curtain and looked at Yuan Zining with a smile: "Did you miss me?"
"Of course!" Yuan Zining said hurriedly, "Little sister, look, my brother and I have been waiting for you at the gate since early this morning."
As they were talking, the carriage arrived at the gate and several people greeted each other.
Looking at the generous return gifts unloaded from the carriage, Yuan Zian and Yuan Zining couldn't help but smile. It seemed that the Huo family really valued their little sister. The two Yuan brothers felt completely relieved.
The group of four went to the elder lady's Shousong Hall.
In Shousong Hall, Liu looked at the door anxiously. She had been looking forward to Yuan Ziyu's return since last night. To be honest, this was the first time she hadn't seen her daughter for such a long time, and she was really a little uncomfortable.
Cui Ruxun smiled and said to Liu: "Mother, don't worry, my little sister will be here soon."
"That's right. An'er and Ning'er have already gone to the gate to greet them. I think they will be here soon." The elder lady also said with a smile.
Even Yuan Qifeng smiled and said, "Don't worry, Yun'er."
Liu was a little embarrassed and smiled, "Well, no rush."
Although he said that, his eyes kept glancing towards the door.
Not long after, a maid came to report that the second young lady and her husband were on their way to Shousong Hall. Liu was delighted and hurried out to greet them. Cui Ruxun also hurriedly followed Liu to greet them.
"Mother." Before Yuan Ziyu even reached Shousong Hall, he saw Liu waiting at the gate. He immediately rushed over and snuggled into Liu's arms: "You'er misses you so much."
"My dear Yu'er." Liu happily hugged Yuan Ziyu and caressed him for a long time. She then looked at Yuan Ziyu's face carefully. Seeing that his face was rosy and very shiny, she knew that Yuan Ziyu was living well in the Huo family, and she felt relieved.
"Mother-in-law." Huo Xifei also hurried forward and saluted Liu, then nodded to Cui Ruxun and said, "Sister-in-law."
"Hey." Cui Ruxun smiled and said, "Let's go into the house."
After entering the house, Yuan Ziyu and Huo Xifei met Madam Yuan and Yuan Qifeng again. After they talked for a while, the Yuan brothers and Huo Xifei followed Yuan Qifeng to the study.
After Huo Xifei left, Yuan Ziyu asked Qingying to give the list of return gifts to Liu.
Liu looked at the generous return gifts on the list and said with a smile, "Sister Meng is so kind to give such a large return gift."
"That means our in-laws value our girl You." The elder lady said with a smile.
"That's true." Liu also responded with a smile, and then said to Yuan Ziyu, "Needless to say, the old lady of the Huo family and your parents-in-law are very kind to you. As for the people from the second and third branches of the Huo family, have they given you any trouble?"
Everyone in the Yuan family knew about Yu Fangyin's previous plot against Yuan Ziyu. They also knew that the people from the third branch of the Huo family were quite hostile to Yuan Ziyu. Therefore, Liu was more worried that the people from the third branch would make things difficult for Yuan Ziyu.
"Mother, don't worry." Yuan Ziyou smiled and said, "The old lady and my parents-in-law are very protective of me. Brother Xi is also very protective of me. I won't be bullied. Besides, in terms of status and position, the third branch of the Huo family wouldn't dare to do anything. Even if they want to make trouble, mother, are you still worried about your daughter? Who can bully me?"
"That's true." Cui Ruxun smiled and said, "Mother, don't worry. I'm a skilled martial artist, and I have the Crown Prince protecting me. Who would dare not be careful?"
Liu smiled and said, "That's good."
Madam Yuan smiled faintly, and when she saw the happy faces of Liu and Yuan Ziyu, mother and daughter, she thought of Yuan Qilei. In the past two years, Yuan Qilei had only sent back letters, but had never returned to Beijing. To be honest, Madam Yuan missed him very much. Originally, when the new emperor ascended the throne, Madam Yuan wanted Yuan Qifeng to take the opportunity to plead with the current emperor to transfer Yuan Qilei back to Beijing, but when she thought about what Yuan Qilei had done in the past, she gave up the idea.
Madam Yuan often wondered if the Yuan Qilei family had not treated Yuan Ziyu in that way, would the outcome have been different? Now her eldest son's family is getting better and better. How great it would have been if the two brothers had supported each other and been friendly and respectful to each other!
It’s a pity that there are no ifs in this world.
While Yuan Ziyu was listening to Liu's various instructions, he secretly noticed that Madam Yuan looked a little lonely.
She knew that the Elder Lady must have thought of Yuan Qilei's family. Although Yuan Qilei's later actions disappointed the Elder Lady, she had doted on her youngest son for decades. How could she let go so easily?
Yuan Ziyu knew all of this.
However, Yuan Ziyou smiled faintly in his heart. Now Yuan Qilei's family has received the retribution they deserved, and as long as Yuan Qilei's family did not instigate, Madam Yuan would not do anything foolish again. Yuan Qifeng and Liu were also doing their best to respect Madam Yuan.
Come to think of it, everything now can really be considered perfect.
"Grandma." Yuan Ziyu was also willing to show more filial piety to the current Madam Yuan: "Now the flowers in my farm are in full bloom. When you, my mother, and my eldest sister-in-law are free, you can stay in the farm and escape the summer heat."
"Oh, okay." The elder lady threw away the messy thoughts in her mind and responded with a smile.
Aunt Bai also smiled and said, "Old lady, look how filial the second young lady is to you."
"Yes, You girl is a filial child." The elder lady nodded with a smile.
After chatting for a while, the family had lunch together.
This time, in order to welcome Yuan Ziyu back home, Mrs. Liu made a big fuss and asked the kitchen to prepare a table of excellent food, and the whole family had a happy meal.
After staying at the Yuan family for a whole day, Yuan Ziyu reluctantly said goodbye to her family. At the same time, she also told Liu and others that she and Huo Xifei were about to go on a long journey.
When Liu heard the news, she did not stop it, but only ordered Huo Xifei to protect Yuan Ziyu.
Huo Xifei naturally agreed to all of them.
