The smile on Qin Yining's face did not change. He smiled and said, "Brother Zhao, Brother Han, your great-grandmother, maternal great-grandfather, and grandmother are here. Did our Brother Zhao and Brother Han miss your great-grandmother?"
Brother Zhao nodded seriously and said in a childish voice, "Great-grandmother, we missed her."
"We missed her. Great-grandmother knows martial arts! Hahahaha! "Brother Han excitedly performed a round of punches. His small arms and short legs actually looked like they were moving!
Qin Yining was surprised. "Did Brother Han learn this from Great-grandmother?"
The two children nodded at the same time.
Qin Yining smiled and instructed Ji Yun to get the clothes the two children would wear outside.
Today, the two children wore light yellow silk jackets and small golden locks around their necks. Qin Yining was also wearing light yellow jackets. He held one child in each hand and bent down to match the two children's speed. As he walked, he told them the names of the flowers and plants they saw and the small insects that jumped in the grass.
Madam Ma could not wait and quickly walked into the courtyard. When she saw the mother and children, she could not help but smile. The mother and children were too cute together, like a nest of fluffy ducklings.
"Aiyo, my dearest, Brother Zhao, Brother Han, quickly come and give your great-grandmother a kiss."
Madam Ma quickly rushed over.
Brother Zhao and Brother Han immediately walked over with their short legs and hugged Madam Ma tightly. They said in unison, "Great-grandmother!"
"Yes!" Madam Ma happily kissed them here and there.
Qin Yining walked in front and smiled. "Grandmother."
Madam Ma saw that Qin Yining was smiling like a flower and his complexion was particularly good. She could not help but tease him. "Now that you've seen your two precious children, are your worries gone?"
"That's right. All the unhappiness will pass." Qin Yining smiled and squatted down to pat the children's heads.
"Mother."
"Mother!"
The two children said in unison. One spoke slowly, while the other was full of energy. Qin Yining's heart melted into a puddle of water.
Ma shi happily held Han Ge 'er's hand, while Qin Yining held Zhao Ge' er's small hand. Both of them turned sideways, matching the children's height and speed as they slowly walked forward.
Brother Zhao had a quiet personality, so he walked side by side with Qin Yining. Brother Han, on the other hand, was like a little calf. He pulled Madam Ma's hand and pulled her forward with all his might. He even urged in a childish voice, "Hurry up, Great-grandmother, hurry up!"
Madam Ma agreed with an "okay, okay, okay," and said to Qin Yining, "Brother Han's temperament is exactly the same as Dai Fu's when he was young. You don't know, but when Dai Fu was young, he could do all kinds of tricks. He peed in his grandfather's tobacco, stole his grandfather's tea leaves, and even added sand into it. Haha, when he was older, it was common for him to climb up the roof and tear down the tiles."
Qin Yining laughed when he heard this. "Isn't this kid the same? Yesterday, when he saw an ant hole, he deliberately peed in it."
Madam Ma couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Qin Yining bent down and picked up Zhao Ge 'er.
The child was obedient and quiet. He found a comfortable angle to lean on Qin Yining's shoulder, and his small hand even grabbed Qin Yining's long hair. His trusting and dependent appearance made Qin Yining like him so much that he kissed the top of his head.
They went all the way to Ci Xiao Garden. When they entered the house, they saw the Yao Clan sitting on the side, chatting with the old madam, Madam Zheng, and the Sun Clan.
Madam Zheng smiled and said, "I'm very grateful that Madam Zheng treats Sister Yi so well. I'm usually in Southern Yan and rarely have the chance to come back. A few days ago, something happened to the Family Qin, and I was very anxious. However, I was thousands of miles away and couldn't do anything. Thanks to Madam Zheng's benevolence and righteousness, you helped the Family Qin a lot. I still have to thank you. "
Madam Zheng had been the wife of the Dayan Duke Ding for so many years. Even if the family had declined, her graceful bearing was still there.
When she spoke, her voice was neither high nor low, and her attitude was gentle and warm. She said that there was something that didn't exist and gave a soft slap to the Yao Clan's face. Her sarcasm made the Yao Clan feel embarrassed, and their faces became hot.
The Yao Clan suppressed their anger, and their voice was a bit sharp. "Madam Zheng, you don't have to thank me. The Qin Clan is also very outstanding. As expected of a girl raised in the Qin Manor, she has excellent rules and has never offended her mother-in-law. She also takes care of everything in the prince's residence. She has to take care of both big and small matters. As the mistress, I often can't get involved. "
Qin Yining never grew up in the Qin Manor. When she said this, she was scolding Qin Yining for being unruly, for offending her mother-in-law, and for taking away her authority as the steward.
Ever since the last time the Family Qin was driven out, the Sun Clan already disliked the Yao Clan. Now that they heard that she dared to be sarcastic when she came to visit, they couldn't hold back their anger. Just as they were about to flare up, Madam Zheng beat them to it.
Madam Zheng said, "Many thanks for the praise, Madam Zheng. As the Princess Consort, Sister Yi is just doing her duty. In the future, you should beat her more. You should teach her a lesson in front of others and mock her more behind others to prevent her from becoming arrogant. "
The Yao Clan was so angry that they almost fell backwards.
The Sun Clan was secretly pleased and laughed.
The Dowager Duchess took a sip of the honey water, as if she was trying to suppress the smile on the corner of her mouth.
The Second Madam felt awkward as she watched from the side. After all, they were in-laws. If they really quarreled, the one who would be in trouble would be Qin Yining. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a figure walking by the door. She smiled and said, "Aren't they here now?"
Everyone's attention was diverted, and they all looked towards the door.
Qin Yining and Madam Ma were leading the children into the room. Although they heard half of the conversation, they could only pretend that they didn't hear it now.
When the two sides met, they were naturally polite and greeted each other.
The Yao Clan was suppressing their anger, but they still had a smile on their face as they sized up Brother Zhao and Brother Han.
"These two children are fair and cute, but they resemble their mother more than their father."
The Yao Clan had always been suspicious of the twins' bloodline. They had even poisoned Qin Yining with safflower. Now that they were angry and stubborn, they naturally chose to look at the two children who resembled Qin Yining. For example, their almond-shaped eyes that were very similar to Qin Yining's.
However, if they said that the children didn't resemble Pang Xiao, they would be lying through their teeth. Although the children's eyes resembled Qin Yining's, their facial features resembled Pang Xiao's more. Anyone who saw them would be able to tell that they were Pang Xiao's sons at first glance.
The Yao Clan's behavior made Madam Ma very embarrassed. However, there were too many people and she couldn't discipline them in person. She could only smile apologetically at the Sun Clan and Madam Zheng.
Then, she said, "Are you presbyopia? The two children look so much like Dai Fu when he was young, especially Brother Han's personality. I think you should bring a mirror with you next time you go out, in case you make a mistake. "
The Yao Clan's faces turned red when they heard their birth mother's words.
At this time, Madam Zheng and the Sun Clan were even more certain that Qin Yining's days in the prince's residence would be ruined by the Yao Clan.
Madam Zheng thought for a while and then took Madam Ma's hand. She smiled and said, "Elder sister, it's not easy for me to come here. I don't know when I'll be able to come again. I miss the children and want them to stay with me for a while. Sister Yi can't be separated from the children, so I'll let Sister Yi stay for a few days. What do you think …"
Madam Ma knew clearly that Madam Zheng couldn't stand the Yao Clan's behavior and was afraid that Qin Yining would be wronged. She was tactfully asking Qin Yining to go back to his mother's home.
Madam Ma was very anxious and angry at the Yao Clan. It was fine if they were embarrassed at home, but she didn't expect them to be full of thorns when they went out.
But to be honest, which family's daughter wasn't the treasure of their parents before she got married? Sister Yi was a good child. As parents, who could bear to see their child being wronged? Sister Yi's father was no longer around. Otherwise, she would probably teach the son-in-law well. Now, the family had no other choice but to let Sister Yi come home and stay away from the Yao Clan.
Madam Ma sighed and said, "Well, Yi can also accompany you more. It just so happens that the prince's residence is very close. I want to see the two little guys, so I'll come and see them. "
She turned to look at the old madam and said with a smile, "Elder sister, don't find me annoying when the time comes.
”
The old madam was old. Qin Huaiyuan's matter was a blow to her and her health was not as good as before. Later, although she found out that Qin Huaiyuan was not dead, her body was damaged and she was a little tired at this time.
She forced herself to be energetic and said with a smile, "In-law, you don't have to be so polite. Our two families are one family. You are welcome to come at any time. Why would I be annoyed?"
In this way, before Qin Yining said anything, the idea of her returning to the Qin Manor for a short stay was decided.
Qin Yining thought of Qiu Feishan, who was staying in the prince's residence for a short time. He turned to the old madam, the Sun Clan, and Madam Zheng and said,
"The bride of Wang Ye's good friend, Young Master Mu, is now pregnant and will give birth in two or three months. I get along very well with her. Because Young Master Mu went out, I asked Mrs. Mu to stay in the prince's residence for a short time. Now that I'm back to live, it's not good to leave her out, so I want to invite her to come with me."
The Sun Clan said with a smile, "Young Master Mu also protected our family in the past. I didn't expect him to be married and soon to be a father. I think it's good to let Mrs. Mu come home. I'll find two knowledgeable women to take care of her. We can consider it as repaying Young Master Mu."
The old madam couldn't remember who Mu Jinghu was, so she asked Mammy Qin next to her. Mammy Qin whispered a few words in the old madam's ear. Only then did she remember and said with a smile, "So it's his wife. It's good to invite her over. Our family is so big, we can't do without her courtyard. It'll be more lively if the family lives together."
In this way, Qin Yining went to invite Qiu Feishan.
Originally, he was afraid that Qiu Feishan wouldn't be willing to come. He didn't expect Qiu Feishan to agree.
"The scenery in the prince's residence is very good. I've long wanted to see it."
When she was brought to the Qin Manor and saw Brother Zhao and Brother Han, Qiu Feishan was very envious.
Qin Yining taught the children how to greet people, "This is Mrs. Mu, you have to call her Aunt Mu."
Brother Zhao said in a childish voice, "Hello, Aunt Mu."
Just like his older brother, Brother Han shouted, "Hello, Auntie Mu!" After saying that, he tilted his head and looked up at Qiu Feishan, "Aunt Mu is also good-looking. Aunt Mu is rounder than niangqin!"
Qin Yining didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Little brother lives in your Aunt Mu's belly, so Aunt Mu looks round now."
"Little brother?" Brother Zhao curiously walked closer and looked up at Qiu Feishan's belly.
