- C284 (1) Take your son and go back to Hou Mansion
“Come in, come in! Why are you here so early? Can the children wake up?” An Nation’s Madam Hou received the Prince Yi and Princess Yi outside his residence, and personally carried the two big treasures off the carriage. After kissing them, he returned them to Moyu and Mo Liu.
You said we were here early in the morning, and you’re already waiting at the entrance. Mother, didn’t I tell you not to come out and pick us up?
Qingluo quickly held onto Madam Hou’s arm. Ever since Luo Qingqi came back from the battlefield, knowing that Grand matriarch had passed away, the longing for his mother and the warmth of his family grew even stronger.
Therefore, Luo Qingqi encouraged Qingluo to recognize the Madam Hou. Although they were already very close, they couldn’t call each other mother in name, which was always a kind of regret. In the end, the two of them decided to personally go to the house of the Marquis to discuss with the Marquis and the Madam Hou to see if they could adopt Qingluo as their foster daughter.
Qingluo still remembered that she had woken up early that day, but had rushed to the evening market. Because she was too uncertain, she was afraid that her mother would reject her. When she thought of how her mother would reject her as her daughter, Qingluo couldn’t help but feel upset.
“The more you think about it, the greater the hope and the greater the disappointment. You just take this too seriously and that’s why you’re so worried about your future. Think about it, before you recognized your mother, didn’t you get along well with her?”
“Right now, we have only found an opportunity to see if we can get closer to them. So, even if Master Hou and Madam Hou don’t agree to our request, they will only return to their original appearances. You tell me, what are you hesitating about?”
After being persuaded by Luo Qingqi, Qingluo thought about it, that made sense, even if his mother had rejected the idea of marriage, the two of them would definitely not be estranged.
His mother’s closeness to him was not a lie. At most, she would just continue to interact with him as she used to before. After thinking it through, he really didn’t have anything to worry about.
Although it was already late in the morning, Qingluo had at least been persuaded by Luo Qingqi to go to the Prince Yi’s Mansion and ride the carriage to the An clan.
Except, the closer they got to the House of the Marquis of An, the more nervous Qingluo became. Although she kept on telling herself that success didn’t matter, she still couldn’t calm down.
“Qingluo, don’t be like this. It was originally a good thing, but seeing that you’re so upset, I want to give up. Hey, before we reach the house of the Marquis, think about it again. Do you really want to recognize your mother?”
“If your heart isn’t that strong, then we’ll return to the Prince’s Mansion right now. With your current relationship with mother, we don’t have anything to be dissatisfied with.”
In the end, Luo Qingqi advised himself to turn back. Qingluo had already made up his mind to take this step, why should he return disappointed? He would have to do it before knowing if it would work, abandoning halfway was not Qingluo’s style.
Maybe it was because they were nervous, or maybe it was because they were uncertain, but when the two of them spoke out their intentions and wanted to ask Madam Hou for his opinion, Madam Hou had already pounced on them, hugging Qingluo tightly in his embrace. “My daughter, my good daughter!”
Thinking about her daughter who had died in injustice, Madam Hou felt so much pain in her heart that it bled. That was a memory that she could never repair in her entire life, a wound that she would never be able to heal in her entire life.
“Mother, please call me Min Yan. You know, that day when I was just 15 years old, the empress dowager bestowed upon me her name — Min Yan. You can call me Min Yan in the future.”
Madam Hou immediately pulled the distance between them and carefully looked at Princess Yi in front of him. From his first glance at her, this woman saw Min Yan as her.
From then on, Madam Hou felt that she and her daughter overlapped many times over. Now that she had also requested for this, Madam Hou almost felt that her own daughter had returned.
“You are not mistaken, your daughter is back.” Regardless of whether Madam Hou would misunderstand it or not, this was Qingluo’s truest thought at the moment. She just wanted to tell her mother that her daughter had returned, returned to accompany her for the rest of her life, and return to let her feel her daughter’s filial piety.
“Min Yan is really back?” Qingluo nodded and told her that everything was real.
“Great, Master Hou, Min Yan is back.” Actually, no matter if it was the Madam Hou or the Marquis, they both thought that the Princess Yi was kind and wanted to give them a surprise and comfort.
They really did not think that the Princess Yi was actually Zhao Minyan, but this was good too, a beautiful misunderstanding would make people more at ease.
It seemed that they were afraid that Qingluo would go back on her word, causing Qingluo and Luo Qingqi to not know whether to laugh or cry. Originally, it was the two of them who were apprehensive, but now it was Master Hou and the Madam Hou who were more worried.
“I’ve already said it. There’s no need for you to be so conflicted. Look, there’s someone more anxious than you.”
“I know, you’re the smartest one.”
“That’s right, who am I? I’m your husband! How could your eyes not be good?”
“Stinky, but thank you!” Thank you for always supporting me, encouraging me, caring for me.
“Idiot, like I said, I’m your husband. This is what a husband should do for his wife.”
After she kowtowed and acknowledged the Marquis and Madam Hou as her foster parents, the knot in Qingluo’s heart finally opened. At that moment, she was unspeakably happy.
Although his life had gone astray, he had finally returned to the right path. He no longer had any regrets in this life.
“Yu Er, Ye Er, quickly call someone over. Why aren’t you saying anything when you see our grandmother?” While holding Madam Hou’s arm and walking towards the house of the Marquis, Qingluo was talking to her two sons while tilting her head.
Bao Er’s name was finally picked up by Luo Qingqi himself, or the prince gave her a name — — Luo Hua Ye. Her name was given very well, and the two of them didn’t have any objections.
Right now, Ye Er was already one year old, if the long sentence was not accurate, calling someone was not difficult at all.
“Grandmother.” Yu Er and Ye Er spoke at the same time. Only, when one was speaking calmly and the other was speaking softly, it sounded extremely harmonious in Madam Hou’s ears.
It was as if there was no sound in the world that could warm her heart more than the sound of her grandmother singing a duet.
“Sigh, good, good. Grandmother’s good grandson, Grandmother has prepared some good things for you two. Quickly, let’s take a few steps forward and take a look inside the house.”
The Madam Hou increased her pace, and Qingluo naturally followed closely behind. After Luo Qingqi and the Madam Hou greeted the Marquis, they were left in the Outer Academy by the Marquis Master.
Since Qingluo had entered the family tree of the Marquis Mansion, and was the proper daughter of the Marquis Mansion, Luo Qingqi naturally became the Young Master of the Marquis Mansion. The two of them had political affairs and family matters.
“Yu Er, do you like the one that Grandmother prepared for you?” What Madam Hou passed to Yu Er was a piece of white jade, which had goat fat.
The additional decorations on the side were also extremely beautiful. Although the white jade had lost some of its weight due to the carving, its value had increased due to the carving technique.
“Mother, this is too precious. Why don’t you leave it to your own grandson?” Madam Hou glared at her daughter.
“What you are saying, isn’t Yu Er my grandson? To think that you can even say such words, how sad would us Yu Er be if we heard it. Isn’t it obvious that we would end up having a relationship as grandmothers?”
“You, the mother, aren’t even going to shut the door. Speak to others, and the child will be small. Do you really think this is true? Does the child even have anything to do with you? Can I kiss you as long as you are my grandson?”
Oh wow, her kindness was so bad, Qing Luo closed her mouth, if she dared to persuade again, Madam Hou would get really angry.
“Yu Er, don’t worry about your mufei. Just keep it in mind. This is grandmother’s decision, your mufei can’t make it.” Yu Er really liked this piece of pure white jade. Even though he was still young and didn’t know the value of this jade, he could understand his grandmother’s feelings.
“This is for Ye Er. Ye Er, let’s see if you like this?” This time, Madam Hou took out a gold and jade collar, which was suitable for children to wear. Ye Er was still young, so wearing this collar was a celebration.
It was just that the necklace was obviously not an ordinary one. Gold and jade were common, but there were many emeralds the size of a small fingernail embedded on the outside of the gold collar. This was extremely precious.
Not to mention many of them, just a single piece of jewelry made from a large emerald was enough to sell for a good price, let alone so many of them.
“Mother …” Qingluo wanted to stop him, but she didn’t know what to say. She was afraid that what she said would make her mother angry.
“You don’t need to say anything. This is the first time that a child has formally been engaged to a grandmother like me. I can’t let the children down. Besides, everything is a dead object, so feelings are the real deal.”
“To have these two children, I’m really happy like a blooming flower in my heart. This idea of mine won’t be able to express what I’m thinking.”
“Thank you, grandmother!” Just by looking at mufei’s performance, one could tell how precious this item was. Yu Er pulled his brother’s hand and obediently kowtowed three times to Madam Hou, causing him to be both happy and pained.
“Good child, quickly get up. Grandmother has prepared many delicious things to play with. Hurry, bring the things I prepared for the children over.”
A group of little girls brought in a lot of food. The two children were dazzled as they ate and drank. From snacks to snacks, fruits, tea and even drinks, they were all there.
Things to play with, from the boy’s favorite knife, gun, sword, halberd, to the girl’s favorite cloth doll, handkerchief, pouch, silk flowers, to exercise the hand-brain nine series, colored wood, Luban lock.
Looking at the two children who were stuck in a pile of toys, Qingluo suddenly felt that as a mother, she had not done her duty well. She had never thought of preparing toys for her children.
In the mansion, only one piece of building blocks was used by the children. Only now, after seeing the children indulging themselves in the fun, did he realize how unqualified his mother was.
“Madam Hou, where is the time for lunch?” Seeing the children having fun, and the time passing quickly, Qingluo and Madam Hou did not expect that the afternoon would already have passed so quickly.
“We’re all family, let’s set it up in the outer hall. Let’s eat together, what do you think, Qingluo?” Although Qingluo asked her mother to call her Min Yan, Madam Hou still felt that it was somewhat unlucky for her that her daughter had already left.
She wanted her daughter to live for a hundred years, so she insisted on calling her Qingluo.
“Alright, mother. Of course we have to go together. It would be more lively that way.” His son had already gone to the study room to accompany his father and the Marquis. Madam Hou called his wife and grandson over, then called them back to the courtyard to chat with the three men.
The family raised their cups and drank merrily. Qingluo looked at her family in front of her. Her tears moistened her eyes, but her smile was warm and relaxed. Some of them had lost their lives forever. It all depended on how you held love in your hands.
