Chapter 198 - Why Are All the Children Gone?
n
n
n
n“Greetings, Master. Greetings, Young Masters.”
n
nAn Jiuyue set the children down so they could stand.
n
n“Zheng’er, Rong’er, I bought these people to take care of you. You can look for them if you need anything in the future. I’ll also bring Lu’er, Zhou’er, and Xing’er home later. You can play together,” she said.
n
n“Okay, Mother!”
n
nQian Yizheng held Qian Yirong’s small hand. They proceed to study the residence hand-in-hand.
n
nThey had been living on the mountain for as long as they could remember. They had never seen such a large residence and were so happy they were at a loss of what to do.
n
n“Servant One, Servant Two, boil some water and bathe Zheng’er and Rong’er.”
n
nAn Jiuyue settled Zheng’er and Rong’er into the residence. She watched them familiarize themselves with the five servants.
n
nAfter comforting them a little more, she exited the microcosmic space.
n
nQian Jiyun had been standing outside the room, waiting for An Jiuyue to come out.
n
nHe could sense that An Jiuyue and the children in the room had disappeared. He waited outside for a long time.
n
nHowever, by the time Qian Yiyun came to tell him that the hot water was ready, An Jiuyue still did not appear.
n
nHe sent Qian Yiyun away and continued to wait outside the door.
n
nAfter a long time, he detected An Jiuyue’s vital energy again, but there was no sign of the two children.
n
n“Jiuyue, Zheng’er and Rong’er…”
n
nAn Jiuyue opened the door and saw Qian Jiyun. She took a deep breath.
n
n“I’ll have someone take care of them in the future. You don’t have to worry.”
n
nShe sidestepped the man and went to Qian Yiyun’s room. Inside, Yan Nuo held Lu’er, while the two babies slept soundly on the bed.
n
n“Master, you…”
n
nYan Nuo wanted to say something, but An Jiuyue did not give him a chance.
n
nShe took Lu’er into her arms and glanced at Qian Jiyun, who had followed her.
n
nGiven the situation, Qian Jiyun went along with her naturally. He took Lu’er in his arms and said to her, “You carry the two babies. I’ll carry Lu’er.”
n
nAn Jiuyue nodded and picked up the two babies before returning to her room.
n
nIt was easy coaxing the three children.
n
nThe two babies were handed over to the servants directly. There was no need to explain the situation to the babies since they did not know how to talk anyway.
n
nLu’er was also very obedient. He was fine with anything as long as there was someone to hug him, play with him, and feed him.
n
nAn Jiuyue felt relaxed when she came out of her microcosmic space again.
n
nHowever, she was not fully relaxed. She still had things to do.
n
nThe residence was a mere building. There were no food, clothes, or other daily necessities. She had to prepare everything.
n
nShe allowed the five servants to pick vegetables in the vegetable fields outside the residence as they pleased. Then, she took some firewood from her pile in the treehouse and placed them in the residence inside the Microcosm.
n
n…
n
nWhen Qian Yiyun came out of the kitchen again, she was shocked to see that the five children were gone.
n
n“Big Brother, where are Zheng’er and the others?”
n
nIt’s only been a while. Why are all the children gone?
n
nQian Jiyun did not say anything. He only glanced at her sternly, implying that she was not allowed to ask anymore.
n
nQian Yiyun kept quiet and looked at An Jiuyue, who was brewing tea. She did not dare to speak to her sister-in-law.
