It had been so long since they last met, and she was ugly againâ¦
Yan Jiuchao looked at Yu Wan in a tolerant manner and said, âPlease bear with her. â
The Matriarch said, âI know, I know. I wonât bully your wife!â
Yu Wan looked at Yan Jiuchao, waiting to watch a good show. Yan Jiuchao paused. He didnât clarify in person that âthis is my adopted daughterâ. Instead, he said to Yu Wan, âArenât you going to come and call Grandma?â
âOh.â Yu Wan walked over and called her grandmother sweetly.
Although the Matriarch despised her, she pulled out the most precious bracelet on her wrist and gave it to her. She couldnât even bear to give this bracelet to her daughter-in-law, Madam Tan. The Matriarch said to Yu Wan, âYou have to treat my little grandson better!â
Yu Wan: Iâm your little obedient grandchild!!
The Matriarchâs gaze landed on Yu Wanâs stomach. âEh? Youâre pregnant! Iâm going to have a little great-grandchild?â Yu Wan glanced at Yan Jiuchao and said mischievously, âIâm.. â
âYes, sheâs pregnant,â Yan Jiuchao said.
Yu Wan snorted. After a while, the sleeping little black eggs woke up. The Matriarch instructed Yu Wan to take good care of the fetus and could not wait to tease the few great-grandchildren.
Yu Wan looked at Yan Jiuchao calmly, as if asking, Daddy, why did I become your wife? What happened to not treating me as a child bride? What happened to me not being pregnant and only being fat?
Yan Jiuchao said without changing his expression, âGrandma is old and canât take any stimulation. Since she treats you as her granddaughter-in-law, then youâll be her granddaughter-in-law for a few days. When she says youâre pregnant, pretend that youâre pregnant for a few days.â
âThen if I canât get married in the futureâ¦â
âIâll support you.â
Yu Wan turned around and covered her chest. She originally wanted to take the opportunity to retort, but who knew that she would be hit by his sweetness. Her heart was thumping and was about to jump out of her throat! She finally understood why this fellow didnât say sweet words when he was awake. Someone would really dieâ¦
Yu Wan was originally captured by the Ghost Clanâs black envoy. Yan Jiuchao told the Matriarch that Yu Wan had gone out and he went to pick her up. After waiting for a few days and not returning, Helian Beiming told the Matriarch that the couple and the little black eggs had gone sightseeing. After a few days, Yu Shaoqing and Madam Jiang disappeared. Helian Beiming said that Yu Shaoqing had received a mission from the Imperial Court and that Madam Jiang had gone out with him.
Although the Matriarch was not too worried, she missed them very much, especially her little grandson and the three little black eggs. She almost missed them to death!
The Matriarch hugged Dabao, Erâbao, and Xiaobao. âDo you miss Great Grandma?â
âYes, yes, yes!â Xiaobao wheedled in the Matriarchâs arms.
Erâbao spread his hands and said seriously, âWe miss Grandma so much. We miss you so much that we canât eat or sleep well. Weâve⦠lost weight! n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Fu Ling and Zi Suâs eyelids twitched. Theyâve become rounder that their previous clothes could not be worn anymore. Who gave you the courage to say that you had actually lost weight?
âAiya, let Great Grandma take a look! Youâve really lost weight! My Baoâer⦠has really lost weight!â The Matriarch touched the fat on her grandchildrenâs faces and her heart ached!
Fu Ling and Zi Su were completely speechless.
At night, Madam Tan and Helian Beiming returned from their maiden home.
When they found out that Yan Jiuchao and Yu Wan had returned to the residence, the two of them were overjoyed and hurriedly went to the Matriarchâs courtyard.
Yan Jiuchao was called over by the Matriarch. Yu Wan was sorting out the herbs in the courtyard.
Suddenly, a white shadow darted over and threw itself into Yu Wanâs arms.
âLittle Snow Fox!â Yu Wan hugged the soft little ball, her heart about to melt. Helian Beiming liked this little pet. When they left back then, they had left it in the manor. After not seeing it for more than half a year, the little snow fox had grown bigger and a red fire mark vaguely grew between its eyebrows. Yu Wan did not understand what mark this was. She only felt that it was quite good.
The little snow fox had not seen her for a long time. Its eyes were filled with tears as it tugged at her clothes with its little claws, refusing to come down.
Yu Wan also missed it and hugged it well.
Suddenly, Yu Wanâs stomach moved. One of the little snow foxâs little feet happened to be resting on Yu Wanâs stomach. When Yu Wanâs stomach moved, the little snow fox was so shocked that its fur stood on end! It jumped onto Yu Wanâs shoulder and stared warily at her stomach.
Yu Wan burst into laughter. She touched the little snow foxâs head with one hand and her stomach with the other. She said softly, âI have a baby.â
The little snow fox did not fully understand. It lay on Yu Wanâs shoulder and used a small front paw to touch Yu Wanâs stomach warily and carefully. As soon as it touched it, Yan Xiaosi was naughty again. It was so frightened that it flashed back into Helian Beimingâs arms.
Helian Beiming was sitting in a wheelchair, pushed by Madam Tan.
Although Madam Tan was wearing a wig, it was obvious that her hair had grown a little. Her face was no longer miserable and melancholic, but like a spring breeze and her complexion was rosy. Helian Beiming, who was pushed into the wheelchair by her, was also full of vitality.
Moreover, Yu Wan was sure that it was not her imagination. Helian Beimingâs body seemed to be stronger than before.
âUncle! Aunt!â Yu Wan greeted them happily.
When Helian Beiming saw her, the smile in his eyes was about to overflow. âAh Wan is back. Why didnât you send a letter in advance? I could have waited for you at home with your aunt.â
Madam Tan smiled and said, âThatâs right. Thereâs nothing important in my maternal family. Weâre just sending some gifts for the Mid-Autumn Festival. If we had known that you were coming back, we would have sent them another day. By the way, where are Jiuchao and the children?â
Yu Wan said, âFu Ling and Zi Su brought Dabao and the others to pick oranges. Yan Jiuchao is accompanying Grandma in the room.â
It was good that they were back safely. Mrs. Tan was relieved. She thought of something and asked, âIs there anything wrong with you leaving suddenly?â
Yu Wan avoided the main point and said, âNothing. I just went to look for the medicinal primer.â
âHave you found it?â Madam Tan asked.
âFound it!â Yu Wan said.
Madam Tan was relieved. âThatâs good. By the way, why donât I see your Dad and Mom?â
âThey⦠are on the way. They were delayed by something and will be back soon.â Since the Sorcerer King had said that they were fine, Yu Wan naturally would not worry for nothing. She understood the Sorcerer Kingâs strength, but Uncle and Aunt might not be the same, so it was better not to say it out loud to add to their worries.
Helian Beiming looked at Yu Wan and said, âTell Uncle about what youâve seen and heard along the way.â
Yu Wan smiled. âAlright, Iâll talk to you later. Shall I take your pulse first?â
Helian Beiming reached out. Yu Wan took his pulse and frowned. Seeing her strange expression, Madam Tanâs heart skipped a beat. âWhatâs wrong? Is your uncleâs health not good?â
Yu Wan quickly shook her head.. âNo, on the contrary, Uncleâs body has
recovered! Uncle, do you feel that your legs are feeling better than before?â
