"I feel relieved as long as you are in good health. When I get older, I worry about accidents happening to people around me." In front of her brothers and sisters-in-law, Zhou Qiongyue did not want to hide her vulnerability.
Zhou Zhiyi reached out and rubbed his sister's head like he did when they were little. "So Yue'er, be a good boy. Remember that you still have us when things go wrong! Don't let us worry!"
Zhou Qiongyue was stubborn and said, "Big brother is still worried about me, my little sister. I'm in good health! What could possibly happen?"
In front of them, Zhou Zhiquan seemed to be the same impulsive teenager as before, actively trying to undermine Zhou Qiongyue. "It's pretty good, but every time I get sick, I have to pay monthly. I don't know who is so scary."
Zhou Qiongyue clenched her fist and shook it in front of Zhou Zhiquan, her eyes full of threats, "Fifth Brother..."
Zhou Zhiquan looked at his elder brother and younger sister and quickly changed his words, "It's me, it's me, okay?"
When Zhou Qiongyue saw her fifth brother like this, she instantly felt extremely happy. She even held her head higher than usual, like a victorious rooster.
Zhou Zhiyi and Zhou Zhiquan were in a good mood seeing their little sister like this. They felt that everyone had not changed much after so many years. They even felt like they were back to their childhood.
It is not long after the Chinese New Year and the snow outside has not melted yet. It is icy and snowy outside and very cold.
They were a group of elderly people, so Zhou Qiongyue and the other three just strolled around for a while and then went back.
Yuan Bohua was quite surprised to see Zhou Qiongyue and the others come back so soon, "How come you came back so soon?"
As Yuan Bohua spoke, he put the hand warmer in Zhou Qiongyue's hand and asked her to hold it.
Zhou Zhiyi placed Cheng's hand on the stove and explained, "It was too cold outside, so we went to the greenhouse to check out the vegetables my younger sister planted herself and then came back."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Bohua quickly ordered someone to serve hot tea, then turned around and asked Zhou Qiongyue in a low voice, "Are you cold? Are you feeling unwell?"
Zhou Qiongyue smiled and shook her head, while Zhou Zhiyi and the other two pretended they didn't exist, determined not to be the one to ruin the atmosphere.
Zhou Zhiyi and the other two only stayed here for three days before Zhou Yirong and his men came to pick them up.
Fortunately, Zhou Zhiyi and his friends left, and Yuan Chaochang and Yuan Chaokang came with their families. The entire hot spring villa instantly went from quiet to noisy.
Zhou Qiongyue and Yuan Bohua are surrounded by a bunch of grandchildren every day, and Zhou Qiongyue actually finds it noisy.
But when she saw the prince smiling every day, she knew that he liked the days when he was surrounded by his children and grandchildren.
Zhou Qiongyue also smiles every day and tries to be gentler with her grandchildren.
This lively day did not last long. Yuan Chaochang and Yuan Chaokang left with their people, and this time Yuan Hantao also left.
After all, the Chinese New Year is over, and young people all have their own things to do, so it is impossible for them to always revolve around her and Yuan Bohua.
Even Yuan Yixuan and Zhou Qiongyue were not kept. For a seven-year-old child, it was time for him to accompany Ren Xiyu to various occasions and meet various noble ladies.
Zhou Qiongyue and Yuan Bohua were reluctant to keep such a sensible granddaughter with them.
In the huge hot spring manor, Zhou Qiongyue and Yuan Bohua were the only owners left. Looking at the deserted manor, Yuan Bohua began to doubt whether the bustle of the past few days was just an illusion.
Zhou Qiongyue watched Yuan Bohua staring blankly at the courtyard gate. She placed a small hand warmer in Yuan Bohua's hand and asked, "What is the prince thinking about?"
Yuan Bohua took Zhou Qiongyue's hand and asked her to sit next to him. "I just miss the palace a little bit."
When Zhou Qiongyue heard Yuan Bohua say this, she actually wanted to go back now. But she was thinking about the prince's health, so she could only hold Yuan Bohua's hand and comfort him, saying: "We will go back to live when the weather warms up."
Yuan Bohua looked towards the gate of the courtyard with a very lonely look.
Zhou Qiongyue was right next to Yuan Bohua, so of course she saw Yuan Bohua's look, and she felt very uncomfortable.
She sat with Yuan Bohua outside for a while, and then persuaded Yuan Bohua to go into the house.
After Yuan Bohua had his lunch and dozed off, Zhou Qiongyue sent someone to deliver her handwritten letter to Yuan Chaokang. In the letter, she asked Yuan Chaokang to go to the courtyard where she and the prince lived in the palace to build a kang, which she had heard of in her previous life.
However, Zhou Qiongyue was not a girl from the north in her previous life, so she didn't know how it was made specifically. She just knew that this thing existed and wanted Yuan Chaokang to ask a craftsman to study it.
Zhou Qiongyue wanted to give Yuan Bohua a surprise and fulfill his little wish of returning to the palace to live.
In the letter, Zhou Qiongyue also specifically instructed Yuan Chaokang to spare no expense and to write to her as soon as possible when the work was done.
After receiving the letter, Yuan Chaokang immediately summoned craftsmen with a large sum of money. He first tested it in the Prince's Mansion for ten days. Finally, when it was successful, he personally took the craftsmen to the Prince's Mansion to build a kang in the courtyard where Zhou Qiongyue and Yuan Bohua lived.
Yuan Chaokang was worried, so he asked Yuan Chaochang to stay there for two nights. Then he went to the hot spring villa with his elder brother who had taken leave and the imperial physician to pick up his father and mother.
When the servant came to report that the Crown Prince and Prince Yi had arrived, Yuan Bohua silently calculated in his mind that today was not a day off.
Yuan Bohua was confused. Today was not a day off, so why were his two sons here?
Zhou Qiongyue felt that it must be her youngest son who got the job done. She turned to look at Yuan Bohua, her eyes full of smiles.
But at this moment, Yuan Bohua was wondering if something had happened to Yuan An, and did not see Zhou Qiongyue's eyes.
Brothers Yuan Chaochang and Yuan Chaokang were all smiles when they came in. As soon as they entered the door, they both spoke at the same time, "Father, Mother, your sons are here to take you back to Yuan'an."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Bohua looked at his princess immediately.
Zhou Qiongyue took Yuan Bohua's hand and said, "Your Highness, don't you miss the palace? Let's go back and live there. Are you happy?"
It was a happy thing that his opinions were taken seriously, not to mention that this person was his princess. Yuan Bohua was so happy that he exclaimed, "Happy!"
Yuan Bohua held Zhou Qiongyue's hand tightly, not wanting to let go for a moment.
Yuan Bohua really wanted to go back. If he hadn't been afraid that Yue'er would worry about his health, he would have suggested returning to the palace long ago. Now that he knew he could go back, he was as happy as a child, "Then when are we leaving?"
Yuan Bohua's tone was full of impatience.
Seeing his father in good spirits, Yuan Chaokang was in the mood to joke, "Father, please let my brother and I have breakfast before we leave! We're hungry."
Yuan Bohua immediately ordered the people around him to prepare breakfast for the two of them. Turning to Zhou Qiongyue, he asked, "Yue'er, do you want to have some with your sons?"
Zhou Qiongyue had already spent quite a bit with Yuan Bohua just now, and she was still holding on! So she simply shook her head.
