“Bing Er, it’s not good for me to appear in front of them now, right?”
Gu Ying asked with some hesitation.
Originally, MO Ruyue had planned to give the babies a heads up before letting him appear. However, plans did not change as quickly as changes. In this situation where she did not know when the natural disaster would come, there was not much time left for her to prepare.
No, let’s meet them tonight. I need you to go somewhere with me, and I’ll bring the babies with me.
For some reason, MO Ruyue suddenly thought of the mirror space behind the valley of treasures. That was definitely an alternate space similar to the spiritual spring space. Perhaps they could escape the natural disaster there.
She also had a vague guess that she might be able to find some related clues there, because looking at the direction the wolves were running in, they might be heading toward the valley of treasures.
“Alright, I’ll listen to you.”
Gu Ying nodded. Since Bing Er asked him to meet the babies now, then so be it.
Anyway, they would always be going the same way.
The two of them cleaned up the people following behind them and continued to wait at the same spot for more than an hour. After confirming that there was no second wave of people chasing them, they mounted their horses again and chased in the direction of the Qin Village.
Even though they were far behind, the two of them easily caught up to the Bai family’s carriage.
The carriage was still moving at a steady pace. They were already very close to the Qin Village. MO Ruyue was not in a hurry to take over the carriage. Instead, she continued to follow behind and listen to the conversation coming from the carriage.
“Big Brother, where are we now? It’s so dark outside, I can’t see anything clearly.
“Big Brother, Uncle Bai said that Mother has returned, but where is she now?
“Big Brother, why are we suddenly going back to Qin village? Aren’t we waiting for Mother to celebrate the Lantern Festival together?”
“Big Brother, I want to go back and play with Sister Jiaojiao…”
The four kids were talking at once, but Da Bao didn’t say a word.
As MO Ruyue listened to the babies’ voices, she introduced Gu Ying to the people who were talking. However, he had already heard the babies’ voices when he was recuperating at her house, so he could easily match them.
“That’s strange. Why isn’t Da Bao saying anything?”
MO Ruhan did not hear Da Bao’s reply. This was not like him.
Although Da Bao was a very quiet person, he would never avoid his younger siblings’ questions, so his current situation was very unusual.
No matter how worried he was, MO Ruyue still held back. No matter what happened, it wouldn’t be too late to talk about it when they got home.
When the carriage arrived at the entrance of the Qin Village, the dogs in the village started barking. However, after two or three barks, it turned into a wave of mournful wuwu sounds and then returned to silence.
MO Ruyue and Gu Ying released the pressure from their bodies almost at the same time, causing the dogs to shut their mouths in time and not wake the sleeping villagers.
The carriage silently stopped outside MO Ruyue’s house. The Liu couple alighted first, and then the babies were taken off the carriage one by one.
The coachman lit a few more torches to illuminate the babies, and then helped the Liu couple move things into the house.
These were all the things that the babies had brought to Bai residence. They had received many gifts over the past few days, and almost everyone had a huge box.
The boxes were all placed in the trailer that was hung on the back of the carriage, and they were piled up into a mountain.
MO Ruyue watched from afar and couldn’t help but sigh.
They went empty-handed, but they did not come back empty-handed.
The small courtyard was very lively for a while. After all, no one had come back to stay for so many days, and there was too much to clean up.
Fortunately, with the help of the coachman and the Liu couple, everything was proceeding in an orderly manner.
“You’re not going back?”
Gu Ying asked.
MO Ruyue had been sitting on her horse and watching for a long time, as if she had been lost in thought.
“Yes, I was just thinking about their reaction when they see you.”
MO Ruyue thought of another problem that she had overlooked. She turned to look at Gu Ying helplessly and said, “I seem to have forgotten something very important.”
“ I told the babies that I was going to cancel my marriage with their father, but now I’m bringing you home. I wonder what they’ll think.”
She scratched her head and said hesitantly. “If I were vou. I would probably rebel on the spot.”
“I look like their real father. That’s why you tried so hard not to let me meet the babies last time. Isn’t that my advantage?
Gu Ying had never been a father before, so he could only follow his feelings and ask.
“That’s why it’s terrible!
“What if they misunderstand that we started it then?” MO Ruyue said, annoyed.
Gu Ying was stunned for a moment, and then a faint smile appeared in his eyes.
“Start what?” He teased.
“Don’t mess around, it’s annoying to be serious!”
MO Ruyue could hear his teasing, but she wasn’t in the mood to respond.
It was her negligence. If she didn’t think about this problem properly, there would be problems to solve in the future.
“No, natural disasters don’t wait for people. There’s really no time to slowly build up. Gu Ying, the eldest and the second have a deeper impression of their biological father. The three younger ones are a little lacking. The youngest, Tang Tang, has never seen him at all.”
“So, no matter what kind of emotional catharsis you encounter next, it won’t be strange. You have to be prepared for this.”
Now, MO Ruyue was starting to give Gu Ying a heads up.
After all, he was a mentally strong adult and would not stoop to the level of a group of babies.
“Don’t worry.
Gu Ying’s smile did not fade. The two of them dismounted from their horses and led them to the MO family’s small courtyard.
“Da Bao, let’s get ready to take our little brothers for a bath.”
Aunt Liu’s voice came from the courtyard, followed by a series of footsteps.
MO Ruyue immediately quickened her pace and knocked on the courtyard door. She casually said, “Aunt Liu, open the door. It’s me.”
“Mother? It’s Mother who has returned!”
San Bao was the first to respond. His footsteps were even faster than his voice, and the door opened almost in the next second.
“Mother!
San Bao saw that it was indeed MO Ruyue standing outside the door. He was about to jump into her arms when he saw Gu Ying standing beside her, and his eyes immediately widened.
“San Bao, what’s the matter? Let Mother in!”
Er Bao’s puzzled voice came from the courtyard. Third brother had greeted his mother first, but why was this person standing at the door and not moving?
“Second Brother…”
San Bao turned to look at Er Bao, his eyes filled with confusion.
Anyone who saw their own mother returning home with a strange man in the middle of the night would probably have doubts in their hearts.
“Ruyue, what are you doing outside? Come in quickly.”
Aunt Liu had already entered the bathroom to adjust the water temperature. When she heard the unusual movement outside, she quickly came out to see what was going on.
“San Bao, let’s talk inside. Oh, that’s right, call him Uncle Gu Ying.”
MO Ruyue very naturally pointed at Gu Ying, as if introducing him to the third baby.
“I… Uncle Gu Ying.”
San Bao was in a state of complete confusion. He subconsciously followed MO Ruyue’s words and called out to Gu Ying. He didn’t even know what he had just said.
“San Bao, I know you.”
The moment Gu Ying spoke, San Bao’s eyes became even more confused.
He seemed to have heard this voice before..
