Yun Qingluo was slightly taken aback. No wonder her second brother was always afraid of their father. Whenever he saw their father, he would run away as far away as possible, like a mouse seeing a cat.
It turns out it was a trauma left over from my childhood.
"Father has never held my eldest brother?" Yun Qingluo asked curiously as she helped her mother walk into the mansion.
Mica stiffened slightly, then resumed her normal steps without uttering a sound.
Yun's father followed behind, took two steps forward, sighed and said, "I'm sorry to your mother. When your mother gave birth to Ziheng, I was at the border. By the time I came back, Ziheng could already recite the Three Character Classic."
Upon hearing this, Yun Qingluo fell silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "Father doesn't know how to hold him, so Mother, you can teach him. Look, Zeyan and Qianyue keep looking at Father; they clearly want their maternal grandfather to hold them too."
Upon hearing this, Yun's father excitedly looked at Qian Yue in Yun's mother's arms, then turned to look at Ze Yan behind him.
Sure enough, when he saw the two little ones staring at him intently, Yun's father was immediately thrilled.
"My dear grandson recognizes his maternal grandfather! Hahaha, I'm a grandfather now! This is a joyous occasion! I must boast about it properly when I go to court tomorrow..."
As Yun's father spoke, his voice weakened, and Yun's mother's body trembled slightly.
Yun Qingluo's heart sank; something was clearly wrong.
Seeing that Yun's mother and father were pretending to be nonchalant, Yun Qingluo knew they didn't want her to worry, so she didn't ask any further questions, but just glanced back at Qiushui.
Qiu Shui nodded almost imperceptibly, then slowly retreated to the very back, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Yun Qingluo turned around with a smile on her face, "Speaking of which, it's time for my eldest brother to get married. Do Father and Mother have any suitable families in mind?"
Yun's father, who had been feeling a little guilty, breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Yun Qingluo's words, and his furrowed brows slowly relaxed.
Yun Qingluo pretended not to see it, but after turning her head away, her eyes stung terribly.
She secretly cheered herself up and didn't cry.
In her parents' eyes, she will always be a child. Since they hope she can live a carefree life, she cannot let their wishes be dashed.
"You'll have to ask your mother. How would I, a grown man, know about these things?" Yun's father turned his head away, looking somewhat uncomfortable.
The floor heating had been turned on inside, making the room quite warm.
The maids and servants waiting at the door rushed to greet Yun Qingluo and her entourage as they entered.
With a beaming smile, Granny Feng greeted, "Greetings, Your Highness! Your Highness..."
Yun Qingluo stepped forward and hurriedly pulled up Granny Feng, "Granny, please get up quickly. We're at home, there's no need for so much formality. I'd like to stay a little longer, so please don't find me troublesome."
Granny Feng had always been kind to her. During the days when she was wronged by the scheming sister and misunderstood by her parents, Granny Feng gave her a lot of warmth.
"The princess can stay as long as she wishes. Madam has already prepared a room for the princess and all the necessities for the young master."
Granny Feng had assumed that Yun Qingluo had only given birth to one child, but when she saw the other child in Yun Tao's arms, her smile deepened.
"Our Princess is truly amazing! It's twins, a boy and a girl! This is such a joyous occasion!" said Granny Feng happily.
Several maids stepped forward to remove the cloaks of their masters, and then served them hot tea and hand warmers.
Yun Qingluo hugged the hand warmer and watched as her father sat next to her mother, begging to hold the child.
Granny Feng has already led a group of people to the kitchen to prepare dinner.
As Yun Qingluo listened to the child's babbling and the joyful sounds of Yunmu playing with the child, she couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips into a smile.
I'm finally home! Every cell in my body feels relaxed.
My tense nerves were relieved along the way, and I was relieved that my parents were alright.
Father turned around and saw Yun Qingluo in a daze. He reached out and touched Yun's mother, signaling her not to focus solely on the child.
Yun Qingluo noticed her father's subtle actions, pretending not to see them, but she was puzzled.
When she came back this time, she felt that her father had changed, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what was different.
It seemed that her father was more cautious and attentive towards her.
Yun Qingluo still couldn't figure it out.
Yun's father asked, "Why are you alone? Haven't those two brats come back?"
Yunmu chimed in, "I told them to take good care of you. How come you've lost so much weight? It's so dangerous for you to travel alone. If you want to come back, you can send a message to the manor first so your father can come and pick you up."
Yun Qingluo slowly shook her head and said with a smile, "I just missed my father and mother too much. The five lines of defense haven't been set up yet, so it will take some time, and that's why I came back early."
"Father and Mother, don't worry. I brought a lot of guards with me, and the journey has been safe. My two older brothers have also worked very hard. When they come back, Father, please don't scold them. They have always taken good care of me at the border."
Yun Qingluo added.
Yun's father snorted, "Hmph, look how thin you've become, and you call that good?"
Now that you're back, stay in the manor for a while longer. Let your mother cook you some good food to help you recover. We'll take you back when the prince returns to the capital.
I entrusted my daughter to her, and she's turned her into this wretched, inhuman mess. I need to settle this score with her.
As Yun's father was talking, he suddenly got angry.
Yun Qingluo felt a warm glow in her heart. The feeling of having her family backing her up was so comforting, and she suddenly felt empowered.
"Ah Chen is busy with battlefield matters at the border. He's having a tough time. I heard that the Tianlang Kingdom has been destroyed?" Yunmu said, then suddenly remembered the news she had heard on the street not long ago and asked in confusion.
Yun's father pressed on, "I'm also puzzled. How could the country have been destroyed so suddenly? What did they do to anger the prince? Does Luo Luo know?"
When Yun Qingluo met the curious gazes of her parents, she immediately felt a little guilty.
She was willing to tell them the truth, but she didn't dare to.
If he told his father, his father would probably be so angry that he would rush to Tianlang Kingdom to kill the surrendered emperor and then beat up Mo Beichen.
Yun Qingluo lowered her head, fiddling with her fingers, and calmly replied, "Things on the battlefield can change in an instant. Perhaps she said something she shouldn't have said or did something she shouldn't have done, which angered A-Chen and led to this end."
Yun's father didn't suspect much, only saying that he would ask the prince in detail when he returned.
After a long silence, Mica suddenly spoke up, "Is it related to you?"
Yun Qingluo met Yunmu's sharp gaze and was startled. Indeed, no one knows a daughter better than her mother.
Is this the telepathic connection between mother and daughter?
But Yun Qingluo absolutely refused to admit it, after all, her mother's body was too weak, and she had already fainted once, so she couldn't upset her again.
