In the carriage, Yue Jiao asked, "Sir, will your family like us?"
Qibao smiled and said, "Don't worry, my grandparents, uncles and aunts will all like you. They are all very kind, so you don't have to worry."
"The young master is a good man, and his family must be good people too!" Yue Xue said.
"Yes, I think so too!"
Everyone started discussing this topic immediately.
Qibao chuckled, looked at them and shook her head. Children are just children, their thoughts are somewhat simple. Few other families are as harmonious as hers. It is not necessarily the case that all the people in a good person's family are good people. She does not admit that she is a good person, but she is definitely not a bad person.
The carriage drove all the way to the door of Xu's house. Ding Sheng, who was cleaning the front yard, heard the noise at the door and ran out to check. He was a little confused when he saw more than a dozen people standing at the door.
Qibao stepped forward, patted him, and said, "What? You don't recognize me after not seeing me for a few days?"
Ding Sheng took a closer look and thought the face looked so familiar. He stared at it for a long while before saying, "Miss? You are Miss! I almost didn't recognize you in this outfit. Great! The old lady always talks about you every day! I'll go inform the master and the mistress!" After saying that, he dropped the broom in his hand and ran while shouting, "Old lady, old man, the lady and the young lady are back!"
Qibao's mouth twitched. She had only been away from home for a few days! She made it seem like she hadn't been back for years!
Yuexue was a little confused and asked, "Young Master, why does he call you Miss?" The others were also a little confused.
Qibao touched his chin and said, "Well! I'll explain it to you later."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a family running towards this direction.
The first one was Wang. Her eyes turned red when she saw Qibao. Although Qibao was dressed like a boy, she could recognize her at a glance. This was her granddaughter.
Wang went forward and hugged Qibao, choking with sobs as she said, "My dear baby! You're finally back! I missed you so much!"
The old man was also grinning with joy. He missed her just as much as Wang did. He said several times, "I'm glad you're back, I'm glad you're back!"
Mrs. Lin also stepped forward and touched her daughter's head, saying with a look of pity, "Qibao, you're finally back. I was worried that you weren't eating enough and were being wronged outside. You're back just in time. I'm finally relieved!"
Qibao felt warm in her heart. She thought it was such a blessing to have someone worry about her, so she started to act coquettishly and said, "Grandma, Mom, it's so hot outside! I'm almost getting a heat stroke!"
Wang finally let go of Qibao and said, "Yes, yes, the sun is so strong, I can't let my sweet baby get a heat stroke. Come on, there's an ice basin in the house. Tell grandma what you want for lunch and she'll make it for you."
Uncle Xu said, "Qibao, who are they?" The others then turned their eyes to the people who came back with Qibao.
Qibao said, "Let's go inside and talk. It's not a good place to talk outside. Uncle Fu and Yueyang, please come inside! I'll introduce you to each other."
Qibao led everyone into the house. Before they could sit down, a little girl with short legs and a smile on her face ran in and hugged her legs.
Qibao smiled at her when he saw her, touched her head and said, "Yaya, did you miss me?"
"I miss you." After saying that, he rubbed his little face on Qibao's legs. He looked so soft and cute.
This made Qibao very happy, and he held the little girl's face and started to rub it.
Mei Niang stepped forward, picked up Yaya and said, "Girl, stop pestering the young lady. The young lady is already very tired after just coming back."
Zhang smiled and said, "Qibao, you don't know this, this girl doesn't talk much normally, but these past two days, she hasn't seen you and has been crying out for help every day, even knocking on your door every day."
Mei Niang smiled and said, "Ya Ya knows that the young lady treats her well, so she is so close to the young lady."
Uncle Fu and Yueyang stood there a little nervously, and Yuejiao's face was even redder. The fingers of both hands were fiddling with the clothes, and then she seemed to remember something. She quickly let go of the hem of the clothes and smoothed them, for fear of wrinkling the new clothes.
Qibao looked at everyone and said, "Grandpa and grandma, this is Uncle Fu, who will be our family's doorman from now on. This is Yuexue, Uncle Fu's granddaughter."
Uncle Fu immediately stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Greetings, old man and old lady!"
The old man noticed that Uncle Fu's legs and feet were not in good condition, so he supported his arm and said, "No need to be polite. Since you have come to our Xu family, we will be family from now on. There is no need to be polite."
Qibao then introduced Yueyang and the others' origins and names to his family one by one.
Yueyang and his sister also greeted their family very politely.
Wang said kindly, "You are all poor children. From now on, treat this place as your own home. I will make sure you have good food and warm clothes."
"Thank you, old lady!" Yueyang and others said in unison.
Qibao said, "I plan to train these twelve people well. I've already decided that they will be called the 'Twelve Guards' from now on!"
"The Twelve Guards? That name sounds good!" said the old man.
Yueyang and the others also like this general term, which sounds very impressive.
"There is one thing I haven't told you. I'm not a boy. I'm actually a girl. It's inconvenient for me to go out and do things as a woman, so I disguised myself as a boy. I'm sorry I haven't told you yet." Qibao said again.
More than a dozen people were stunned and stared at Qibao in amazement.
"The young master has become a young lady? This..." Yue Xuan said in surprise.
