"Young master, do you know where your home is? Who else is home? I'll borrow a horse to bring you two siblings home. Your parents must be worried sick."
"Uncle, thank you for saving us two, but our family is very far away. My mother will come find us, so you can rest assured."
We have enemies in our family. They are chasing after us so we need to temporarily stay at your home. Please don't tell anyone about us. This will bring trouble to you.
"Little brat, I want to ask you something. Go and help us investigate the situation outside and see if there are any officials searching for us. Don't worry, we siblings are not the children of ordinary families. We will repay you."
The words spoken at such a young age had a lot of meaning to them. "Also, please bring Uncle out. If my relatives have seen it, they would recognize it. The ones who know it are my relatives. Do you remember?"
His words caused Chen Zhong to be stunned. Was this really the words of a three year old child?
It took Chen Zhong a while to react. Then, he laughed out loud and picked up Yan Fengyun, who was running around in circles.
"This kid, hahaha! Although he's young, his words are the same as our supervisor's. He's so cute! Come, let uncle hug! You'll definitely be a big shot in the future! A big shot!"
"Did Uncle agree?"
At this moment, Yan Qingcheng also stood up to hug her thigh. This person looked like he had martial arts skills. He carried her all the way home without even taking a breath for a mile.
"Promise. Promise. Uncle will listen to all of you. Come, hug me too ~"
"Uncle, I want to hug you too!"
"Oh, this is Niuwa right? Uncle only hugged you once when you were born. Come, let's hug together ~"
After the four of them joked around for a while, the worries in the family immediately disappeared. The main reason was that Yan Fengyun and Yan Qingcheng could give the family a sense of trust and security.
"Uncle promised you that he would bring something with him. Little Young Master, please tell us. I'll help you find out what's going on after we finish our meal." After stopping, Chen Zhong started to get down to business.
"Uncle, do you have ink and paper at home?" Yan Qingcheng tilted his head and stared at Chen Zhong with his pair of shiny eyes.
"This... "No one is literate at home, so I don't have this stuff at home. But it's okay, uncle just got the money and is going to help you buy it. Uncle will go cook first."
The stomachs of the three children were already growling from hunger. When they heard that they were cooking, they didn't say much and just played by themselves while the old one talked about their daily life. The atmosphere was quite relaxed.
"Little sister, second brother went off to join the army. It's been half a year already. The only person I want to see all these years is you. It's just that my body has been sick for years, making me suffer …"
"Monthly wages are only enough for me to treat my illness and eat. I can't even marry a wife. Sigh, blame me for dragging him down. Otherwise, his child would have already been as old as Niuwa."
Old Man Chen and his little sister sat together and talked nonstop. He felt that he was getting old, and his son was so tired that he even dragged down his grandson.
"Big brother, you don't have to worry about that at such an age. There will always be a good girl who will fall in love with our Zhong-er. There's no rush, no rush …"
"Right, no rush. Wait until my mother comes to pick us up, I'll have her treat you. My mother is a genius doctor!"
Yan Qingcheng was ashamed, but after hearing that, he couldn't help but comfort Yan Fengyun. This made him anxious. His sister was good in everything, but she was too warm-hearted. He was still in danger and had already exposed his mother's identity.
"Qingcheng, what nonsense are you spouting?"
"Brother …"
"Hahaha, Godly Doctor, tell me a story! Grandpa Godly Doctor will tell you a story!" When the old man heard the two words "Godly Doctor", he immediately became excited.
"Eight years ago …"
"I know what happened eight years ago. Elder brother, are you talking about that?" When the old woman heard this, her interest was piqued.
"That's right, that's her. Eight years ago, our mountain city wasn't as good as it was before. The commoners couldn't eat their fill or wear their clothes. Every year, they would freeze to death or starve to death …"
"I was selling firewood in the city the other day. Did you guys know what happened? A woman from Yuanxiu actually beat up big miss Cen Family in front of everyone. She's the universally acknowledged genius doctor, Fang Ning.
Later on, he became the Imperial Advisor of our Shan Nation, as well as a female Imperial Advisor. You might say that you don't think it's strange, but the Emperor bestowed upon such a peasant girl the title of Imperial Advisor.
Why is that? Do you know? "
The old man stopped here because the three children, who were playing with ashes, had gathered around and were listening to his story with great interest.
"Grandfather, quickly continue!"
"Grandpa, quickly tell me …"
"Imperial Advisor has repelled a hundred thousand of the snake soldiers, passed down medicine to the world, advised the wicked to turn the evil into good, and asked for money to treat the poor … "Her story will last for three days and three nights."
"She even attracted the protection of a divine dragon. At the age of thirty, it was possible to injure her with Devil Clan. What do you think?"
The old man fell into a state of excitement.
"Only the sound of rolling heavenly thunder and flying sand …" A silver-white Divine Dragon spoke out in human tongue, saying, "Imperial Advisor is not a demon, you are a demon. Then, it swallowed the demon in one gulp!"
The three children were stunned hearing this, but Niuwa was fine, while the two Yan Family s were extremely excited. So it turns out that their mother was so great that even the Heavenly Dragon descended to save her.
Due to the weather being too cold, no matter how uncomfortable the Yan Family siblings were, they would not dare to ask for a bath or change clothes. The three of them slept on the same bed and waited for Chen Zhong to buy paper and brushes.
"Little brother and little sister, will you miss me when you return home in the future?"
"Sure, you're our good friend now. In the future …" Wait till my mother comes, then we'll take you to the capital to play, alright? "
"Your family lives in the capital. I heard that the capital is so big …" Also, Empress, do you know that she's the genius doctor that grandfather spoke of? My mother and father also told me the story of Imperial Advisor, and also said that the Empress was the Imperial Advisor back then. You live in the capital, have you seen the Empress before?
"I have. When you go with us to the capital, you will also be able to see her!" The two Yan Family children were extremely proud of their mother and felt that this trip was very fun.
When Chen Zhong returned to the street, the thoughts in his mind had already changed. He saw four officers and soldiers searching for someone in the morning, could it be that they were looking for the two children in his house?
"Old man, what are they looking for?"
"I don't know either. I heard that all the children between three and ten years old in the family have to be reported. The person who reports this will be given two silver taels, and those who don't report this will be sent to jail."
"Didn't the government only capture bad people? Why would they ask about their children?"
"What, you have children?"
"No, no, no, I'm not married yet. My family only has my father and I, and my brother went off to join the army. How could he have children at home?"
