Qin Yining couldn't care less about what he was wearing. When he saw the two children scurrying up the rockery, he was so scared that his heart jumped. He pushed away Bing Tang's hand that was about to put on the Guanyin Pouch for her and ran towards the rockery.
"Come down quickly, Brother Zhao, Brother Han! Be good, come down quickly! "
But the two children were playing crazily, who would listen? They were still laughing loudly, clearly enjoying the joy of flying around in the snow.
Qin Yining said anxiously from under the rockery, "Come down quickly, be good! If you don't come down, I'll ask your Aunt Ji Yun to catch you! "
Brother Han stuck his tongue out at Qin Yining and even shook his butt mischievously.
He was standing on the edge of the rockery, and he could fall down if he wasn't careful. Qin Yining was so scared that the hair on his back stood up. He hurriedly turned around and told Ji Yun, "Quick, catch them quickly!"
When they heard this, Brother Zhao and Brother Han stopped chasing each other and began to run away from the cloud. Brother Zhao didn't like to speak, but Brother Han was laughing the entire way. His laughter, which belonged to a child's happy and crisp laughter, spread far and wide.
Pang Xiao, Qin Huaiyuan, and Mu Jinghu came to the courtyard side by side. They saw Qin Yining anxiously stomping his feet and Ji Yun chasing the two naughty children all over the courtyard.
Qin Huaiyuan couldn't help laughing when he saw this.
Meanwhile, Pang Xiao leaped onto it.
While Brother Zhao and Brother Han were feeling complacent, they suddenly felt their necks tighten. Their feet were lifted off the ground. The two boys waved their little hands and cried out loudly. When they turned around, they saw Pang Xiao's eyes.
"You two naughty brats, why didn't you listen to your mother? Didn't you see that she was anxious? Running up and down in this cold weather and ignoring your mother to accompany you freezing in the snow, where are your manners?! You're all older brothers, aren't you afraid that Brother Xuan and Sister Yun will follow suit? "
After a round of reprimanding, Brother Zhao and Brother Han lowered their heads, like two wild rabbits caught by a hunter who had given up struggling. Even their ears drooped down.
When Pang Xiao saw the two children lowering their heads, his heart softened. However, he wanted to maintain the image of a strict father and put the two children on the ground.
Qin Yining immediately went forward to pat the snow off the children's shoulders and hats. He also straightened out their clothes, which had been pulled askew by the Pang Xiao.
Zhao Ge 'er raised his head and looked at Qin Yining. His small voice trembled as he said, "Mother, I was wrong."
Seeing his older brother apologize, Han Ge 'er also hurriedly said, "Han Ge' er was also wrong. Mother, don't be angry." As he said this, he went forward to hug Qin Yining's waist and buried himself in her embrace.
Qin Yining hugged Brother Zhao and Brother Han and said helplessly, "Don't do it again. Otherwise, Mother will really punish you."
"Yes." The two brothers happily agreed.
Qin Huaiyuan came forward with his hands clasped behind his back, "In a moment, you two will start copying the filial piety. Everyone will copy it once and show it to me the day after tomorrow."
Han Ge 'er raised his head and screamed, "Grandfather, Mother already said we won't be punished!"
"Your mother said we won't be punished, but when did Grandfather ever say we won't be punished?"
The two children immediately wilted.
"For a moment of fun, the two of you ignored your mother's worries and your own safety. I'm afraid you've forgotten all the things I taught you about filial piety."
Han Ge 'er was immediately unconvinced and wanted to refute, but Zhao Ge' er grabbed his small hand, "We know we were wrong."
He understood his grandfather's temper too well. The more he quibbled, the heavier the punishment.
Big Bro Han also thought of this and didn't say anything else.
The two children dejectedly held hands and went to copy the filial piety scriptures.
Qin Yining watched them walk away and couldn't help but laugh, "Father still has a way."
"The two of them are very naughty. Han Ge 'er is very smart, but Zhao Ge' er is even smarter than his younger brother. He just doesn't like to say it out loud." Qin Huaiyuan's eyes were full of love when he spoke of his two grandsons.
Pang Xiao said gratefully, "It's all thanks to Father-in-law that Sister Yi and I didn't have the chance to take care of them. If it weren't for Father-in-law's guidance, I don't know what these two children would have grown up to be."
Qin Huaiyuan was well-read and outstanding in strategizing. He had experienced ups and downs in the officialdom for most of his life, so he naturally had his own principles when it came to dealing with people. How could the children he brought up be wrong in the future?
Pang Xiao was extremely grateful to Qin Huaiyuan. He was grateful that he had open-mindedly created the conditions to betroth Qin Yining to him that day. He was grateful for his support over the years, both in the open and in the dark. He was even more grateful that he had taken care of his family and children so well. Although Qin Huaiyuan was his father-in-law, in his heart, he had long worshipped and respected his father-in-law as if he were his biological father.
As they chatted, they returned to the room.
The maidservants served hot tea and snacks, and they all ate some to warm up. Qin Yining then said, "Mother, grandmother, and the others should be arriving soon, right?"
"Soon," Pang Xiao said with a smile, "I've already sent people to welcome them. They should arrive in the capital in these two days."
Qin Yining slowly looked forward to it, "I haven't seen Mother in a long time. There's also Grandmother and Maternal Grandmother. I don't know if they'll be coming. It's really hard for them to come all the way from Xiyue. "
Qin Huaiyuan said with a smile, "Your grandmother can't come out.
It's because she's old and can't withstand the torment. Your Maternal Grandmother's health is actually not good, but with her personality, she will definitely come to see you after such a big matter. Moreover, with your mother's temperament, your Maternal Grandmother won't be at ease. As for your Maternal Grandmother and mother-in-law, they will also be coming back for Zhixi. "
Qin Yining thought about it and nodded with a smile, "It's been so long since we've been separated. I really miss them. In the past, I had no choice but to send them away for their safety. Now that we can finally live a peaceful life, it's naturally better for the family to gather together."
Pang Xiao also nodded, "That's right, we'll be living a good life soon. It'll be good for the family to be together."
Qin Huaiyuan smiled and nodded, then asked about the living arrangements and other matters.
Qin Yining answered them one by one. He explained the location and layout of the courtyard in detail and asked Qin Huaiyuan if there were any mistakes in it.
The father and daughter were discussing when Ji Yun suddenly walked in quickly and said in a low voice, "Wang Ye, Princess Consort, Boss Qiu requests to see you."
Mu Jinghu, who was sitting next to Pang Xiao and quietly drinking tea, suddenly paused. She suddenly raised her head, and her gaze turned cold for a moment. She immediately put down her teacup, stood up, and said, "Zhixi, I'm going out for a walk."
Without waiting for Mu Jinghu to take a step, Pang Xiao pushed him back to his seat, "Don't go, why are you leaving now? Boss Qiu supported the army in order to appease you. She wrote letter after letter of apology, but you're not moved at all. All of us are anxious for you. She didn't harm you and even gave birth to Brother Yan for you. Are you really going to disown your son and wife? "
"But she used you!"
"That's because we're in different positions. Moreover, she didn't really harm me. If you really don't want your wife and son because of this, then what do you want me and Sister Yi to do? "
"That's right." Qin Yining also nodded.
Qin Huaiyuan shook his head and sighed, "You two can sleep on the same pillow for a hundred years. With such fate, it's best not to miss it. Young Master Mu, everything is just a fleeting cloud. You have to know how to cherish her. "
Mu Jinghu hesitated when he heard this.
