tation at the hospital, money, money, money! Even mosquitoes are meat! Hurry up! It's more important to do business first! I finally got out of that backward village—"Village! A place name suddenly fl...This floor only had two households. Besides the Lao Qi's family, there was another household on the other side with a bare willow branch hanging above the door.

This old man must be the resident of that house, right

By the time we had even blinked, the elderly man had already stepped out of the elevator.

He looked to be around seventy years old, with most of his hair white. He was wearing an old-fashioned cotton coat and a pair of cotton shoes, dressed very plainly.

But his eyes were bright and sharp, looking energetic and full of vigor.

"Mister, why are you shouting so loudly We're here to visit our friend." My brother replied.

The old man frowned, his two white eyebrows furrowed in displeasure. "Visiting friends Don't you know this family has had an accident Young people, don't come and cause trouble. Wait until things calm down before coming back!"

Shao Yihang replied unhappily, “It’s not going to your house, what does it matter to you”

The old man let out a cold laugh and turned to walk towards his front door.

"Wait, wait a moment!" I hurriedly called out to the elderly gentleman.

He turned his head and gave me a cold look.

"Grandpa, excuse me, why do you have branches hung on your door" I purposely said "branches," instead of "willow twigs."

The old man's expression softened slightly, and he said in a harsh tone: "It's normal for children not to understand. My own child doesn't understand either... Little do they know how useful the wisdom left behind by the elders is... This is just a custom, you young people should leave quickly."

Why are you always trying to get us to leave

My brother muttered, "Knowing that willow branches ward off evil is impressive Being this stubborn isn't just about relying on seniority, right"

The old man glared fiercely at my brother.

We stepped into the elevator, Shao Yihang pressed the first floor button, and asked, "Why can't willow branches be hung"

I shook my head and said, “Sure thing. Willow branches are used as talismans to ward off evil spirits. I saw willow branches hanging on the door and thought there must be some powerful person living inside, so I asked a few extra questions.”

“This old man must know that willow branches ward off evil. Older people care more about these things. He probably thinks this incident disturbed his peace and quiet, so he’s so fierce when he sees strangers.” My brother speculated.

On the way home, we learned that Shao Yihang wasn't actually good friends with Lao Qi. He was closer to his deceased female owner.

It was probably out of a kind of sympathy from some special group of people that he introduced us to Lao Qi.

My brother watched Shao Yihang's car disappear into the distance and whispered to me, "I think Shao Yihang really wants Lao Qi and that mistress to have an accident, but he's still rational and doesn't want anything truly tragic to happen. That's why he introduced us to go see."

When we got home, Lao Su was cleaning the yard, and a clear boy's voice came from the west wing.

"Little Uncle! Master!" Tanlang ran towards us with shining eyes.

He was on winter vacation, so my dad brought him to visit us. Lao Su had just brought the two of them back not long ago.

My brother laughed and said, "Unfilial disciple! You didn't even greet your master first! You should call your uncle master first You know that your uncle is the one in charge!"

He playfully teased the glutton while reaching out to pinch his cheek.

I think Tan Lang grows so fast. After his new skin grew in, I haven't seen him for several months. At this time, I feel like he has grown taller again.

Because he was abducted as a child, he doesn't know his birthdate. Previous bone age assessments showed he was about 11 years old, so at most he is 12 now. He's almost as tall as me already!

This little guy is a real glutton. He suffered serious injuries and illness, but it didn't stop him from growing bigger.

This is a response to your request.

Dad was holding the two little ones, his precious heart and soul, in Grandma's room. He said he hadn't seen Yu Gui and You Nan for several months, missing them terribly. He also said that he would never be separated from his two babies again.

As it's the last month of the year and Chinese New Year is approaching, we decided not to bother anymore. We'll go to Lao Qi's place in a couple of days, perform a ritual to appease his wife's spirit, and then have a peaceful New Year.

Grandma is the granddaughter-in-law of grandpa. As the year-end approached, she had to go back home to take care of many household chores. We also hoped she could have a rest for a while and not work so hard bringing up the children every night. So, we sent Dabao to send her back to her hometown.

"So now the question is, what do we do with the kids at night" My brother asked me.

"What can I do, I'll bring it myself."

"Two! Not one! Grandma is very experienced. You may be the real mother, but you are far behind Grandma. If you're too busy, why not... I can help take care of one tonight" My brother hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and made a tragic expression.

It's tiring to look after the kids at night. Besides the occasional crying spells, there’s also feeding and diaper changing. I thought to myself, "No worries, let Jiang Qiyun take care of them… Yu Gui and You Nan really love sticking to him, and they don't cry much either."

Moreover, the Celestial Emperor needn't sleep; he can simply close his eyes and meditate.

Such a good dad shouldn't be wasted too much.

When Jiang Qiyun appeared in the evening, he saw two children huddled under thick blankets on their bed. As I kept bringing baby supplies in, he asked: "What is this"

"Grandma's gone back to her hometown, the kids need us to take care of them ourselves." I pointed at him and myself, emphasizing, "Me and him, we'll take care of them ourselves."

He raised an eyebrow, threw off the covers and sat on the edge of the bed. Yu Gui and You Nan, two little ones, immediately rolled over and huddled beside him, being as affectionate as they could be.

"...Bring your own Then how are we going to have a room Aren't you afraid of waking them up" He smirked.

I knelt by the bed, propping myself up on it like a human guardrail. My face flushed when I heard him say that: "Then... then I won't."

The topic of qi hasn't been resolved yet, what should we do

Actually, this teasing comes from half a mind playing with me, he wants me to be more proactive, but how should I take the initiative

"Could it be that I have to press him down like this and that"

Yu Gui and You Nan have already been half a year old. My body has also recovered to its normal cycle. These two little ones have started eating complementary food, their demand for milk has decreased by half, and I don't have to carefully avoid certain foods as a "food warehouse" anymore.

Jiang Qiyun didn't say much, reaching out to poke the two little ones on their foreheads and pointing at the bed: "Go in."

Two babies probably didn't understand his instructions. The two of them sat side by side, swaying and looking at him blankly.

“How could a six-month-old baby possibly understand” I looked at him speechless.

Jiang Qiyun shook his head. “No, they understand, but because it’s the first time they’ve heard it, it feels a bit strange… Younan, go in.”

He issued the command again, and tossed a jade pendant hanging from his waist onto the bed. Younan seemed to suddenly come to his senses, his little butt quivered as he crawled towards the jade pendant.

At first, Yu Gui was leaning against You Nan. You Nan crawled away, and she "banged" her cheek against the bed and started pouting with grievance.

Jiang Qiyun saw Younan's small, chubby hand clutching the jade pendant and said to me with a hint of smugness: "See, I told you she understands..."

"Well done, you're quite impressive. How about you appease your daughter She's about to cry again…"

A trace of resignation flashed in Jiang Qiyun's eyes. It seemed he had surrendered to his fate as well.o I take a picture in the dark I can't turn on the lights! Turning on the lights would definitely expose me!Just as I was thinking that, the room filled with that cold and eerie atmosphere again—was t...
