CHAPTER 749: CHAPTER 751: TAKING THE CHILD (1 MORE)

Han Xuzi’s eyes reddened at the sight.

He took the wine cup from Mrs. Han’s hand with one hand, helped her to her feet, and said earnestly, "No matter what happened before, it’s all in the past. Don’t dwell on it. One needs to look forward to gain more and better things. Look, all your children are here. As their mother, you must be strong and protect them, that’s your responsibility!"

Mrs. Han nodded.

She understood all this!

"Alright, go sit down and eat. It’s New Year’s, we should all be happy and not think about those unhappy things!"

Mrs. Han returned to her seat and sat down, with many things left unsaid.

Yun Jinnian served Mrs. Han some dishes, "Mother, grandfather is right, the past is past, we need to look forward. Now that our whole family is together, it’s more important than anything. Let’s forget all those insignificant and forgettable things from before!"

"Jinnian..." Mrs. Han called softly.

"Mother, let’s eat!"

Yun Jinnian looked down, picked up a dish with a gentle smile, and placed it in Tianci’s bowl, "Tianci!"

Han Tianci felt uncomfortable inside, but didn’t have the heart to make Yun Jinnian feel awkward, and chuckled softly, "Let’s eat, enough of all this fuss!"

Picking up some chopsticks, he served Mrs. Han, "Mother, listen to grandfather and sister, we will all live happily from now on!"

He then served everyone dishes one by one.

Han Xuzi was very satisfied with Yun Jinnian and Han Tianci.

"Let’s eat!"

Mrs. Yuan also spoke a few words, and Han Tianci interjected with jokes, quickly warming the atmosphere.

When Princess Jinfeng came holding a child, the Hidden Guard quickly surrounded her.

"No need for violence, I am an acquaintance of Princess Yijia!" Princess Jinfeng said with a smile.

The child in her arms was about five months old, chubby, with eyes that moved around curiously.

The Hidden Guard did not recognize Princess Jinfeng but saw that she was holding a child and was followed by two female guards.

"Please wait!"

Turning, he went to the dining hall and greeted with a fist, "Sir, a lady has come to the back courtyard claiming to be the young lady’s friend!"

"My friend?" Yun Jinnian asked.

"Yes!"

Yun Jinnian put down her chopsticks, "Then I will go have a look!"

Han Tianci also hurriedly put down his chopsticks, "Sister, I will go with you!"

"Alright!"

The siblings arrived in the back courtyard and, upon seeing Princess Jinfeng holding a child, Yun Jinnian was taken aback. Still, she stepped forward and gave a small bow, "Princess, what brings you here?"

Princess Jinfeng thrust the child into Yun Jinnian’s arms, "I’ve come to seek refuge with you!"

"..."

Yun Jinnian fell silent.

Holding the child in her arms, she found the little one chubby and very cute.

"This is my son, Leng Nuan!" Princess Jinfeng said, then looked towards Han Tianci and asked Yun Jinnian, "Is that your brother?"

"Yes!"

"How old is he?"

"Ten!"

"He’s quite tall for his age!" Princess Jinfeng remarked with a chuckle. "Are you still having your New Year’s Eve dinner?"

"Yes!" Yun Jinnian replied.

She was somewhat conflicted.

"Well, that’s perfect. I haven’t had dinner yet and I’m actually quite hungry. Would it be possible to join you?"

"Of course!"

Yun Jinnian held the child and invited Princess Jinfeng to the dining hall.

"Jinnian, after the New Year, you will have reached the age of ’hairpinning,’" Princess Jinfeng inquired.

"Yes, I’ll be fifteen after the New Year!"

"Fifteen, that’s a good age to get married!" Princess Jinfeng said, and then she laughed to herself.

As for herself, she was in her twenties, fearless in every way. She had even forced the icy Leng Binghan into marriage and had a son by him. Yet, she was irrationally afraid of her own twin brother!
