Ni Sitian took the letter and looked down at the envelope with a puzzled expression. She had only moved here a few days ago, so not many people probably knew.
Furthermore, letters without a postmark are not delivered by the postman; they must have been simply stuffed into the mailbox.
"Let's take it apart and see," Xu Jiayue said casually, while still tidying up the yarn basket.
Ni Sitian cut open the seal and peeked inside; it looked like a photograph.
She poured them out, and the photos scattered on the table, seven or eight in total, all of them showing Xiang Zhilan and the child!
"It's Zhilan and the baby!" Xu Jiayue exclaimed in surprise as she picked up the photo. "They're so cute! Zhilan looks great too. She's only just finished her postpartum period, and she looks so radiant. She doesn't look like a mother at all."
When Ni Sitian saw these photos, she was deeply moved. She picked up two of them, and her eyes reddened slightly.
These photos are all close-ups and indoor shots, so you can't tell where the place is or even the interior decoration. But as Jia Yue said, Xiang Zhilan looks great, and the two children are fair-skinned and tender. One of them is a little chubby, and the other has a smaller face. They are both very good-looking, with big, bright, and sparkling eyes. You can tell they are doing very well.
"That's great." Ni Sitian sniffed. She could finally put her worries to rest after all this time. Such a lovely child, such a bright and beautiful Zhi Lan. The decision she made back then was definitely the right one.
Leaving Shen Muzhi was like a rebirth for Zhi Lan. She was free to soar like a bird in the sky, becoming better and happier with each passing year.
"Yes, sister-in-law, don't cry. Zhilan is definitely doing well." Xu Jiayue was also happy for them.
"Yes, this is a good thing, I won't cry." Ni Sitian wiped her eyes, smiled broadly, and looked down at the twins that Zhi Lan was holding in each arm. The twins were incredibly exquisite, even more adorable than New Year picture dolls.
"Sister-in-law, look, there are words on the back." Xu Jiayue turned it over and handed it to Ni Sitian.
Ni Sitian looked closely and saw that it was Zhi Lan's handwriting. There were only a few words, saying things like "don't worry" and mentioning the names of the two children, but nothing else. It didn't even mention where they were now.
"As long as we're doing well, it doesn't matter where we are." Ni Sitian flipped back to look at the photos of Bao Bao and Zhi Lan, her heart pounding with joy. She thought the three of them looked better and better the more she looked at them.
"Is Zhi Lan still in Yihai? Otherwise, how could she have sent a letter?" Xu Jiayue suddenly realized this and picked up the envelope to examine it carefully.
“Definitely not. The handwriting on this envelope isn’t Zhi Lan’s. Zhi Lan must have had someone bring the photos back first, and then had someone put them in an envelope and deliver them to me here.” Ni Sitian was in a very good mood and didn’t care too much about how it was delivered. Anyway, Zhi Lan must have a way. She happily held the photos and said, “I wonder if she showed them to Mr. and Mrs. Xiang. I have to call and ask.”
"Yes, it's good to inform the two elders so they can feel at ease." Xu Jiayue was infected by Zhi Lan's smile in the photo, and now her lips were also smiling.
This is probably the best thing that happened at the beginning of the new year. However, she heard a few days ago that Shen Mu was ill, and it seemed to be quite serious. He spent the whole New Year in the hospital.
Because he had caused his wife to run away, Shen's parents blamed him and stopped caring about him. It was quite a miserable situation, a stark contrast to Xiang Zhilan's radiant and happy appearance.
