Although Beili has been constantly engaged in skirmishes with Great Yin, the losses between the two countries are not particularly outrageous.
This ti, Yuan Yindi was reassigned from Yann County by the Emperor Xia and has not yet been given a specific subsequent position; he is now heading ho to report on his duties.
Yuan Bao and Ruan Wan naturally brought Yuan Shouqian and Yuan Shousun along for the journey to the Capital.
Over these eight years, Ruan Wan had fully embodied what a supportive wife should be. In such a long ti, the visits to her natal family were few, and as for eting the Eldest Princess, even fewer.
Upon this return to the Capital, the first thing Ruan Wan aid to do was to take the two children and Yuan Bao to visit her grandmother, who is the current Eldest Princess.
"Big sister, is the Capital really fun?"
Yuan Shouqian and Yuan Shousun, who loved clinging to their big sister, shared a carriage with Yuan Bao, inquiring about the Capital throughout the journey.
"Of course, it’s fun!"
Yuan Bao recalled the situation in the Capital and answered with a very confident expression.
But in truth, her impression of the Capital was still fixed on eight years ago.
In eight years, even Yann County has undergone significant changes, and Qianyang City, being the capital of Daxia, surely must have changed considerably as well.
"Big sister, but I heard from Nanny Xue that you haven’t been to the Capital for many years. How can you be sure it’s fun?"
"Are you trying to trick us?"
Though only five years old, Yuan Shouqian was incredibly clever.
If Yuan Bao wasn’t a hundred percent sure he wasn’t a transmigrator, she would suspect he too had co from another world.
Compared to other kids of his age, Yuan Shouqian was extraordinarily smart.
And Yuan Shousun, even more so!
Despite being only three years old, this little guy had the deanor of a wise sage.
"What good would it do to trick you?"
Yuan Bao raised her hand to gently poke Yuan Shouqian’s forehead, "And you little rascal, how dare you question your sister’s words. You’ve got so nerve!"
"Big sister, you accuse unjustly, my heart aches!"
Having been poked on the forehead, Yuan Shouqian imdiately made a very hurt expression.
"I tell you, without ten taels of silver, I won’t forgive you!"
Hearing this, Yuan Bao raised her hand to twist her little brother’s left ear, scolding, "Can’t you speak properly?"
"Sister, spare , it hurts, it hurts, my ear’s going to fall off!"
"Big brother, are you an idiot? Why do you always rember the eating and not the beating?"
Seeing his big brother’s ear being twisted, Yuan Shousun slowly raised his head, wearing the expression of a wise sage seeing through everything.
"Such misfortune!"
Looking at this little brother who acted like a sage yet knew nothing, Yuan Bao felt a headache.
These two younger brothers were each more of a handful than the other.
"You’re the idiot!"
"If I don’t earn ten taels of silver, watch out or I’ll teach you a lesson!"
Yuan Shouqian shook his tiny fist at Yuan Shousun.
Yuan Shousun just pouted, calmly turned his head, and continued playing with the Huarong Path puzzle Yuan Bao had made for him.
"I think you two should really go and experience the weight of fatherly love!"
Yuan Bao looked at her two brothers with exasperation and spoke lightly.
"Big sister, I was wrong!"
"Big sister, I’m on your side!"
Hearing Yuan Bao ntion experiencing fatherly love, the two imdiately quieted down.
In this family, Yuan Yindi was the quintessential strict father, while Ruan Wan was the loving mother.
As for Yuan Bao, she was the unpredictable sister, sotis spoiling her brothers beyond limits, and other tis, disciplining them soundly.
Yet despite this, the two little ones still loved playing with Yuan Bao.
"Now, both of you be quiet!"
Yuan Bao huffed, "Old one, continue morizing your books, young one, play with your toy!"
"Oh! (In unison)"
The brothers spoke the sa syllable, yet expressed two different emotions.
Yuan Shouqian, with a hurt and disappointed tone.
Yuan Shousun, with a calm and normal tone.
Yuan Bao paid them no mind, as long as the two could let her have so peace, she was grateful.
This season, Yann County had already entered winter, but as their carriage made progress and the journey beca difficult, the weather grew warr, a change that delighted Yuan Shouqian and Yuan Shousun, who mainly lived in Yann County.
"Big sister, big sister, look, what kind of trees are those on the mountain? Why are there so many flowers, fiery red, they’re really beautiful!"
"Could it be soone is setting the mountain on fire?"
Seeing the distant maple leaves through the carriage window, Yuan Shouqian lost interest in morizing his books and shouted excitedly.
"Poor child, to have never even seen a maple tree!"
Yuan Bao sighed as she looked at her brother’s uninford deanor.
No wonder the ancients often said, "Better to travel ten thousand miles than to read ten thousand books!"
