"Only two days?"
The little ones spoke almost at the same time, lowered their heads, and the light in their eyes seemed to dim.
"But..."
When Yuan saw the little guys were dejected and reluctant, he couldn't bear to tease them anymore and said truthfully,
"Let me tell you the truth! Uncle Master came here specifically to pick you up!
"Master, the old man, misses you! Would you like to go with your uncle to live in the mountains for a while and meet your handsome, elegant, lovely, kind, and powerful master?"
"Really? Can we really go into the mountains to see Master?"
When he heard that he could go into the mountains, Xiaolie's eyes lit up with excitement as he thought of the mountains in Heilongjiang Province and Xiaohong.
Xiao Nuan and Xiao Ling also blinked their bright black eyes and looked at him with an expectant look.
"Of course it's true!" Yuan nodded at Xiaolie's nose and replied affirmatively.
"How could my uncle lie to you? Besides, this is something your mother had discussed with my uncle before. If you don't believe me, you can go ask your mother."
"But......"
Xiao Nuan frowned and was about to say that her mother had not been at home these days, but when she looked up, she saw a car driving towards the entrance of the alley.
"Mom, it's mom who's back!"
Xiao Nuan kicked her legs and slid off Yuan Yi, clapping her hands and cheering until the car stopped in front of her.
Xiao Lie couldn't wait to run to the driver's door and wait for his old mother to get out of the car!
"Mom, you're finally back! Lie hasn't seen you for a few days, and I missed you so much that I lost weight."
As soon as Lan Guoer got out of the car, her son gave her a bowl of love potion!
She squatted down and kissed her son's little face happily, "Mom misses my baby too~"
"Senior Sister, Yuan Yi misses you too!"
At this time, Yuan Yi grinned and shouted from the opposite side.
Only then did Lan Guoer notice her junior brother in the doorway!
It has been more than half a year since we last met, and I haven't even written her a letter during that time.
If she didn't know that he and Yuan Lanxi were both hermits, she would have worried that something had happened to them.
"I see you're missing my delicious food, right?"
Lan Guoer glanced at him and pretended to be angry, "Did you use up all the things you took away last time, and now you remember that you have me, your senior sister?"
"Hehe~"
Yuan Yi touched the back of his head embarrassedly.
"Senior sister really understands me! I had already eaten all the food I took away last time!
However, Junior Brother, I am not here just for food this time. I am here on a mission, following Master's orders!"
"Mission? Still obeying the master's orders?"
Lan Guoer glanced at him suspiciously, her eyes full of disapproval.
"Then tell me! What mission did Master give you this time?"
"Master is here to pick up Nuannuan!"
Xiao Nuan listened to their conversation and couldn't help but reply for him!
"Master misses Nuannuan and my brothers, and has asked Master's uncle to pick us up! Mom, Mom! Can we go see Master now?"
Lan Guoer then remembered the agreement she had made with Yuan Lanxi, that they would let the children go to the mountains to live with him for a while every summer vacation.
But what he didn’t expect was that before the kids even went to school, he couldn’t wait to fulfill his promise and even asked Yuan Yi to come and pick them up!
However, when he thought about the fact that he was about to go to Guangdong Province and had no time to accompany the children, he thought it would be a good idea to leave them in the care of Yuan Lanxi and Yuan Yi for a while.
After all, the grandfather in his previous life was very meticulous and thoughtful in taking care of children.
"That's right! You can go and see your master now!" Lan Guoer tapped her little daughter's forehead and replied.
"However, when you see Master, you must listen to him obediently! You can't run around everywhere, and you can't make Master angry, understand?"
No matter how young Yuan Lanxi is now, in Lan Guoer's heart, he is still the white-haired grandfather who loved her very much in her previous life.
"Nuannuan must listen to Master's words and not make him angry! Nuannuan will also massage Master's back, Master will definitely be very happy."
"Lie will also massage Master's legs and arms, and can even be Master's walking stick to help him walk! Lie promises! And he will definitely not make Master angry."
"Don't worry, Mom. I will take good care of my brother and sister!"
Xiao Nuan, Xiao Lie, and Xiao Ling all promised one after another, as if their mother wouldn't let them go if they didn't promise.
Lan Guoer was very pleased with the children's understanding. She looked at Yuan Yi and asked,
"When are you planning to leave? I can book your tickets in advance! But, can you take care of the three of them on the train by yourself?"
Thinking about the situation on the train, Lan Guoer was still very worried about Yuan Yi taking the train alone with three children.
"Senior Sister, have you forgotten our abilities?"
Yuan Yi looked at her as if she was a fool, "Besides, before I came here, our master specifically told us not to take any means of transportation!
I think he also wants to check how well his junior apprentice nephews have mastered the Qinggong."
Lan Guoer: “…”
How could she not know their abilities?
But even if she knew, she couldn't bear to let the little ones suffer that torture!
Thousands of miles of trekking through mountains and rivers! All relying on their short legs, which are only half a foot long? Wouldn't that just cause sparks to fly?!
"Senior Sister, don't worry! Since Master has said so, he must have his reasons.
And I'm here, I won't let anything happen to them."
Lan Guoer looked at the three children sympathetically and nodded helplessly.
She had to admit that Yuan Lanxi was capable!
Since he has said so, he must have his considerations.
Listen to advice and eat your fill! She certainly wouldn't be so arrogant as to go against him!
When they got home, Tang's mother and Old Lady Lan were overjoyed to see Yuan Yi. Who could blame this kid for having such a sweet mouth? His little mouth opened and closed, making the two old ladies so happy.
Qinghe even started chopping the meat directly into fillings and started making his favorite braised pork and meat buns.
During the meal, Lan Guoer told her family the purpose of Yuan Yi's trip and that she was going to Guangdong Province.
"You said you were going to the Fourth Brother's place? The children...are also going to your master with Yuan Yi?"
Tang's mother's speech was not as clear as usual! She looked at the three children eagerly, obviously not wanting them to leave.
"Grandma, be good at home! I'll wait for Nuannuan to come back and bring you a gift! Uncle Yuan Yi said that Master has a lot of treasures!"
"Then Nuannuan must come back soon! Don't let grandma wait too long!"
Even though she was reluctant, thinking that her grandchildren might go to learn some skills again, Tang's mother forced herself to hold back.
