Looking at Hongzheng and Minyan who rushed to her side, Jiang Ranli was filled with mixed emotions. The two children were much taller than they were back then, but they were as pleasing to the eye as ever, and were as affectionate to her as ever.
"How did you get here? Does anyone in the mansion know? It's so cold, why are you wearing so little?" Jiang Ranli looked at the two children happily, and while speaking, he ordered someone to bring clothes and hand warmers.
Hongzheng and Minyan listened to Jiang Ranli's words, and hesitation appeared on their delicate faces. They had sneaked out of the house today, and no one knew they had sneaked out. As for why they were wearing so little, it was because they were too nervous when they sneaked out and did not think it through.
Seeing their reactions, Jiang Ranli immediately realized that they might have sneaked out, and then he felt a little amused. The children have grown up, and there are some things that are really beyond the control of the elders.
Min Yan was very smart. Seeing the awkward smile on Jiang Ranli's lips, she knew that her and Hong Zheng's plan to sneak out had been exposed. So she lowered her head and said sullenly, "Hong Zheng and I missed you. We couldn't leave the house on weekdays, but today everyone was busy with the New Year celebrations and no one noticed us, so we sneaked out."
Hong Zheng nodded like a chick pecking at rice, trying hard to agree with Min Yan's words. Ever since Jiang Ran left, he and Min Yan have been thinking about her all the time.
The two children's eyes full of grievance and hope made Jiang Ranli very sad. He raised his hand to wipe the tears from the corners of the two children's eyes, and then gently kissed them on the forehead.
"You two came at the right time. Here, this is the New Year's money. I wish you grow one year older. From now on, Hongzheng will be a man and Minyan will be a girl." Jiang Ranli changed the subject. She didn't want to make the two children sad and cry.
Hongzheng and Minyan finally met Jiang Ranli. They didn't want to leave for even a minute, so they just stayed around Jiang Ranli. The scene was very warm and beautiful.
This was the scene Yinzhen saw when he came. His deep eyes couldn't help but show some surprise. He was not surprised that Hongzheng, Minyan and Jiang Ranli were so close, but he was surprised why they were here.
Seeing Yinzhen, Hongzheng and Minyan hurriedly stood up, performed the standard greetings respectively, and then hid beside Jiang Ranli anxiously.
"Why are you here?" Yinzhen asked, but his tone was too flat and cold, making the already frightened child even more frightened.
"To answer Father, my sister and I missed Aunt Wan so much, so we came here." Hong Zheng always remembered that Jiang Ranli said that he would be a man in the future, so he would stand in front of his sister to protect her.
Yinzhen frowned and looked at Jiang Ranli, worried that she would be unhappy about this, but the situation he worried about did not happen. Jiang Ranli looked like a hen protecting her chicks, while he was like a poisonous snake about to eat the chicks.
"I heard that Master Jiu got a new beauty. Why don't you accompany that fairy-like girl today, but come to us instead? You're here, but it's New Year's Day, can you please not be so icy when you speak to me?" Jiang Ranli stared at Yinzhen with starry eyes.
Hearing this, Yinzhen was immediately frightened and turned his gaze to the Tenth Prince standing beside him.
"Nine, nine brother, don't look at me with those murderous eyes, I didn't say anything," the tenth prince said, feeling wronged. He had never said anything to Jiang Ranli at all.
You are glaring at the Tenth Prince so anxiously, you must be feeling guilty!
Jiang Ranli clenched his fists and said angrily, "It's getting late now, we won't keep you for dinner, Master Jiu. Someone, show us out."
