Mu Run smiled and said, "Yes."
Tuantuan: "I want to eat chicken soup with bamboo shoots noodles."
Mu Run replied, "Yes, there are."
Zhuangzhuang had never eaten anything made by Murun, but there was one thing he wanted to eat: "Lotus seeds... lotus seed soup."
Mu Run looked at him and replied softly, "Yes."
Zhuangzhuang smiled shyly, her eyes sparkling like the morning star that had risen early in the sky.
...
After dinner, Mu Run took her three chubby children to the Imperial Garden to digest and play.
Zhuangzhuang used to come to the Imperial Garden to play by himself or with Hongmi. Huanhuan and Tuantuan rarely played with him because they had a lot of homework and he was still young.
I never even imagined playing hide-and-seek with Huanhuan and Tuantuan, with my mother by my side.
Looking at the happy Tuantuan, Mu Run said to Hongmi who was standing beside him, "He's quite well-behaved. You've worked hard."
Hongmi replied, "It's all my duty, and Zhuangzhuang is also very easy to take care of. He's been very obedient, smart and sensible since he was little."
"Yes, I can tell. They don't need anyone to worry about them when they eat. Before, I had to urge Huanhuan and Tuantuan to eat, and sometimes I even had to chase after them with their bowls of food to feed them." Mu Run thought of Huanhuan and Tuantuan when they were little, and then looked at Zhuangzhuang. There was so much missing.
"From now on, sister-in-law, please take good care of Zhuangzhuang. My mother's love is different from others and is irreplaceable."
"Yes." Mu Run looked at the little boy with gentle eyes as he looked around for a place to hide. Finally, he hid behind a rock, but only his head was covered and his bottom was exposed.
Fu Yunchen learned that they were in the Imperial Garden, so he came here as well.
When Hongmi saw him coming, she showed no fear at all, and respectfully curtsied as if she had not complained to Murun about him during the day.
Fu Yunchen already knew what she had said to Mu Run, and he also had the real answer as to why Mu Run suddenly asked him about Long Qian and Yun Ruji's whereabouts.
"You may leave now," Fu Yunchen said to Hongmi.
Hongmi glanced at Murun, and seeing that she nodded, she left.
Now that only she and Fu Yunchen were left, Mu Run's emotions were not as calm as they appeared, and she did not speak up.
Fu Yunchen looked at Zhuangzhuang, who was being held by Huanhuan, and said to Murun, "Anything you want to know, you can ask me."
"Isn't it something you should have told me, but didn't?" Mu Run didn't even look at him, her gaze fixed on Zhuang Zhuang, her eyes filled with tenderness and affection.
After a moment of silence, Fu Yunchen said, "He is the reincarnation of the Corpse King Wei Chengzhang. He killed our child and possessed his body."
He didn't want to tell her about it so soon, but if he didn't, she would misunderstand and cause a rift between them.
Mu Run was stunned!
Wei Chengzhang's reincarnation? That's like her... no, not the same. She was born after her unborn child died. Wei Chengzhang, however, killed her child!
I suddenly closed my eyes, finding it hard to accept the truth.
Fu Yunchen continued to ask Mu Run, "If it were you, what would you do to him? If Wei Chengzhang were like you, with a memory bead storing memories, waiting to replace the current Zhuangzhuang and return, how would you treat him?"
Mu Run opened her eyes very slowly, her mind filled with the image of the unborn baby she had been intimately interacting with. "Does Wei Chengzhang still have any surviving confidants?"
