Chapter 989: Family Reunion

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Li Ruo was worried that there was a hidden trick in the carriage. She searched inside and out, not letting go of a single corner. In the end, she still found nothing.

Hong Luan was even more surprised than Li Ruo. She was the one who carried them in. A moment ago, the three of them were clearly sitting there obediently. Why did the three of them disappear into thin air in the blink of an eye?

This was simply too bizarre!

However, at the same time, Hong Luan felt relieved. No matter what, it was better than falling into Li Ruo’s hands, right?

Li Ruo sized up Hong Luan and was just short of asking where she had hidden them.

Hong Luan said indifferently, “What’s with your expression? You make it sound like I’m hiding someone. You’ve also searched. There’s nothing here. Now, can I leave the palace to investigate?”

Li Ruo felt that something was wrong, but she did not catch any evidence. She did not believe that Hong Luan had the intention to betray the Sorcerer Queen, but she could not stop her from falling deeply in love with Lord Wen Xu. Didn’t Lord Wen Xu fall into that vixen’s trap? There was no guarantee that the vixen had asked Lord Wen Xu to save the woman and the three children. Wen Xu himself had no choice, so he deceived Hong Luan.

Li Ruo was half right. Hong Luan did plan to send the hostages out, but not for

Wen Xu.

Hong Luan put on a show until the end and rode the carriage towards the Wen Manor.

Li Ruo looked at the carriage that had disappeared into the night and frowned. She turned around and returned to the palace to continue her search.

In another seemingly inconspicuous carriage near the palace, Yan Jiuchao was sitting with an indifferent expression. The three little black eggs bent down, stuck out their little butts, and stuck their heads into the stool, thinking that no one would see them this way.

Yan Jiuchao looked at the three chubby butts and his handsome face darkened.

It was fine if they were disobedient, but why were they so stupid? He was so worried!

When Yu Wan and Old Cui finished refining the medicine and came out, Yu Shaoqing and Yan Jiuchao had already brought Little Sly Jiang and the three little black eggs back to the Wen Manor.

Yu Wan had naturally heard about her mother and her sons entering the Sorcerer Clan. Compared to why they were captured by the Sorcerer Queen to the palace, she was even more puzzled as to how they came all the way here. Didn’t her mother and her sons follow her great-grandfather to Nanzhao?

She calculated with her fingers that they should be reunited with Granny Yun in the Nanzhao Palace!

Countless doubts flashed across Yu Wan’s heart. Coincidentally, at this moment, Yu Shaoqing helped the weak Madam Jiang into the house. Yu Wan went up to her and looked at the sickly Mom. She asked worriedly, “Mom, are you alright?”

As she spoke, she looked at the three little black eggs who were slowly following behind their father with their heads lowered, looking like they had done something wrong and had been caught red-handed. Then, she asked, “Mom, what’s going on? Why did you come to the Sorcerer Clan? Where’s Great Grandpa?”

“Ahem…” Little Sly Jiang leaned into Yu Shaoqing’s arms and coughed. Yu Shaoqing said with heartache, “Stop asking. Your mom was frightened and needed to rest.”

Yu Wan opened her mouth. “But…”

Yu Shaoqing said indignantly, “There’s no need for buts. I know what’s going on. It must be that evil thief again. Back then, he was the one who kidnapped Ah Shu in Nanzhao. I thought I had shaken him off in the Nether Capital, but who knew that he wouldn’t give up and actually followed us to the Sorcerer Clan again! He captured Ah Shu and followed us all the way. He must be threatening us! Don’t let me find him! Otherwise, I’ll teach him a lesson!” “Achoo!” Little Sly Jiang sneezed guiltily.

Yu Shaoqing hurriedly took off his outer robe and covered her. “Ah Shu, you’ve caught a cold. I’ll send you back to your room to rest now.”

After her father and mother left, Yu Wan was stunned for three seconds.

“Come in,” Yan Jiuchao said to the three little fellows behind him.

The three little fellows did not dare to come in.

Yu Wan walked over.

Aiyaya! Mom is going to see them! The three little fellows immediately covered their faces with their chubby hands. Yu Wan burst into laughter. She squatted down and removed their little hands. “You haven’t seen me for so long. Are you shy? Quickly let me see if you’ve lost weight.”

They must have suffered a lot after being kidnapped all the way. They must have…

Uh… They seemed to have gained weight again…

The three little fellows hid in their mother’s arms, feeling especially shy!

Yu Wan did not know that these little fellows had followed her all the way. She had already missed them very much. Now that they could meet and the three of them were safe and sound, it was really a blessing in disguise. Yu Wan hugged the three little fellows tightly and breathed in the faint milky fragrance on their bodies. “It’s good that you’re fine.”

Mom is the best!

The three little black eggs stretched out their little hands and hugged their mother’s neck, rubbing against her obediently.

Xiaobao said coquettishly, “I miss Mom.”

Er’bao also said softly, “Er’bao misses Mom too. I miss so much!”

Dabao nodded. Dabao misses Mom, too! I really do!

“Hmph.” A certain young master snorted. You guys didn’t even come out when you miss her, little bootlickers!

Little Sly Jiang and the three little black eggs could not hide the fact that they were staying in the Wen Manor from the Second Madam. Yu Wan asked the Second Madam to find a few herbs. When the Second Madam came over with the herbs, she happened to see the three little black eggs sitting on the threshold, holding small milk bottles in both hands to drink milk.

It was already very late. If not for the candlelight shining on them, she would have thought that the milk bottles were floating in the night. It was no wonder that she thought that. It was really because the little fellows were… too… too dark.

However, although they were a little dark, their appearance was top-notch. Their big black grape-like eyes and heroic eyebrows were really unbelievably beautiful.

Besides… triplets. It was too magical!

“It’s Ah Wan and Jiuchao’s son.” Dawa had appeared behind the Second Madam. The Second Madam turned around and looked at him. She lowered her eyes and nodded as a greeting. “Is it Ah Wan’s herbs? Give it to me. You’re tired from carrying it.” Dawa reached out to take the herbs from her.

The Second Madam gave the herbs to him. Logically speaking, she should have left after the things were delivered. However, she could not help but take a few more glances at the children and said enviously, “So Ah Wan has already given birth. Three children are rare and they’re all so good-looking.”

The three little black eggs were fat, strong, and like little yaks. They were really likable.

Dawa had only just found out that the hostages captured by the Sorcerer Queen were actually Yu Wan and Yan Jiuchao’s mother and their sons. Three sons. To be honest, even a bachelor like him could not help but be envious.

The Second Madam was not a person who showed her emotions, but at this moment, her face was filled with envy.

The Second Madam said softly, “Second Master, do you know that I also had a child before?

“Huh? Yes.” He had to know this. The second madam, Nie Wanrou, was pregnant with Wen Xu’s child in the first year she married into the Wen family. Unfortunately, that child was lost because of one of Wen Xu’s concubines. When the fetus completely came out, she realized that there was not only one, but three.

No wonder she had such an expression when she saw the three little fellows. If her children were still alive, she would definitely raise them extremely well.

The child was gone in the womb, but Wen Xu did not punish the culprit severely. The Second Madam was disappointed in Wen Xu, but this was not the reason why she was completely disappointed. Not long after, the concubine slipped on a rainy day and fell down the stairs. She knocked her head and died. This was an accident, but Wen Xu was certain that the Second Madam deliberately wanted to take revenge and kill her.

At this point, their relationship as husband and wife had reached its end.

“That bastard!” Dawa scolded. After scolding, he hurriedly changed his words when he saw the Second Madam looking at him without blinking. “I mean… I’m a bastard! Back then, I was really blinded by lard!”

The Second Madam smiled bitterly and turned around to continue looking at the three little black eggs drinking milk. Dawa followed her gaze and coughed lightly. “Actually, you don’t have to be envious. You’re still young and can have another child!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Dawa regretted it.

The real Wen Xu was already dead. Who would the Second Madam have children with? She would not think that he wanted to have a child with her, right? In all honesty! He didn’t mean that!

Xiaobao finished it and grabbed the bottles to get up, but he accidentally tripped.

The Second Madam’s face turned pale. She subconsciously reached out and was about to pounce on Xiaobao when Yu Wan came out and said to the fallen Xiaobao, “Stand up yourself.”

Xiaobao got up and walked towards Yu Wan. He raised the empty milk bottle high and handed it to Yu Wan. He was not delicate at all!

The Second Madam lowered her eyes and smiled dejectedly. She retracted her hand. “Second Master, I’ll go back first.”

“I’ll send you off!” Dawa chased after her and sent her back to her room.

The Second Madam went to the inner room to change.

Dawa hesitated for a moment and was about to leave. At this moment, Hong Yu walked over with a plate of snacks. When she saw him, she bowed. “Second Master is here. Are you going to rest here tonight?” Dawa was stunned.

Hong Yu smiled and said, “I’ll go prepare water.”

Dawa trembled in panic.. “No, I… I…’
