Finally, Dahu and Erhu came over, and together the two brothers lifted him by his little bottom, hoisting him up.  

Xiaohu sat contentedly astride the majestic stone lion, shaking his little head triumphantly.  

“Dahu, Erhu, you guys come up too!”  

Sometimes he called them ‘older brother’, sometimes by name.  

The small ancestral hall was secluded, without anyone passing by. 

Aside from the man in white with the bamboo hat, the undercover guard, and Yuchi Xiu, there was only an old nanny who had served Old Madam Wei for many years.  

“The young masters are so lively.” The old nanny said.  

The undercover guard spoke up, “They weren’t like this before.”  

The old nanny looked at him, puzzled.   

The undercover guard hesitated for a moment before deciding that the old nanny was on their side and it was safe to share. 

He repeated what he had heard from Yuchi Xiu about the young masters’ past. 

“At first, they had it very rough… terribly rough… as thin as monkeys… and they didn’t speak to anyone……”  

The three little ones grew tired from playing and began searching everywhere for Su Xiaoxiao.  

They came inside, grabbing Wei Ting’s hand. “We want mommy.”  

Wei Ting remained silent, silently looking at Old Madam Wei.  

Old Madam Wei said kindly to the three little ones, 

“How about sleeping in your Great-Grandma’s room? That room has lots of delicious food and fun toys. Whatever you want, Great-Grandma will get it for you.”  

“We want mommy.” Dahu said.  

“Mommy.” Erhu said.  

Xiaohu was on the verge of tears.

Though they played enthusiastically during the day and seemed getting along with anyone, once the night fell, they only wanted Su Xiaoxiao.

Wei Ting worked hard to bring them out tonight.

“Mommy—”

The three called for Su Xiaoxiao, their voices tinged with faint sobs, their little heads anxiously rubbing against Wei Ting’s legs.

Xiaohu began scratching his head.

Seeing the three of them so distressed and wronged, Old Madam Wei’s heart ached sharply.

In the end, Old Madam Wei let Wei Ting take them away.

She watched their retreating silhouettes fade into the darkness, her gaze lingering for a long time.

Nanny Li brought a cloak over for Old Lady Wei. 

“The night is cold. Be careful not to catch a chill.”

She draped the cloak over Old Madam Wei’s shoulders.

Tears glistened in Old Madam Wei’s eyes. 

“The children have grown so strong, like little oxen.”

Nanny Li said, “I heard that when the young master first found them, they were nearly dead.”

Old Madam Wei’s graying eyebrows furrowed.

Nanny Li continued, “The young master probably didn’t want to upset you, so he didn’t tell you. He found them in a cellar. Their wet nurse had already died, and the three of them were lying beside the corpse. Who knows how long they were starving? They were on their final breath.”

Old Madam Wei’s chest tightened.

Nanny Li’s voice grew somber. 

“After being rescued, the three young masters were bewildered and stunned, like three frightened quails. They weren’t strong back then, just skin and bones. Their behavior… wasn’t like ordinary children either.”

“The young master kept them with him for a while, and they improved a little. But they truly began to recover only after he found them a mother.”

Old Madam Wei frowned deeply, “Are you talking about that girl from the Qin family?”

Nanny Li nodded. “Yes, it’s her.”

Old Madam Wei snorted coldly. 

“Hmph, did that boy deliberately feed you this story? Trying to use your words to persuade me!”

Nanny Li responded, “Old Madam, Fusu is your servant.”

Fusu was the undercover guard who drove Wei Ting’s carriage.

Old Madam Wei said sternly, “He has long since turned traitor. If he was truly loyal to me, would he have hidden that girl’s background from me? If the Third Prince hadn’t privately informed me, I wouldn’t have known that my grandson had married the flesh and blood of our enemy!”

Nanny Li hesitated for a moment before responding, “The Third Prince has ulterior motives.”

Old Madam Wei said without hesitation, 

“Of course he has ill intentions. Even without his provocation, my husband’s death is an unforgivable enmity. I won’t sacrifice my grandson for military power by allowing him to marry a girl from the Qin family! This lonely old woman won’t sacrifice her grandson no matter what happens!”
