It was the fifth day of the New Year when Yan Muxi and his group returned to Hua Island.

Yinxia and others were waiting at the dock, Anan and Kangkang were held in the arms of Qiuzhu and Jinchun.

As soon as the boat step was lowered, Yan Muxi rushed off the boat impatiently.

"The young lady has been gone for more than half a year, and she is finally back." Yinxia smiled with tears in her eyes.

Yan Muxi hugged her and said, "I wanted to come back before the New Year, but something delayed me." After saying that, he looked at the two little ones in his arms.

The two little ones were also tilting their heads to look at Yan Muxi curiously. Due to the strong wind on the island, the brother and sister were wrapped tightly, with only their eyes exposed, which were round like two bear cubs.

"An'an, Kang'an, I'm your mother. Do you still remember your mother?" Yan Muxi excitedly held their hands. She didn't want to lose her composure in front of the children, and tried hard to hold back her tears.

"Mother~" Kang Kang called out in a soft voice.

Seeing his brother shouting, An An also tilted his head and shouted, "A Yang~"

Yan Muxi couldn't hold back her tears any longer. She quickly raised her hand to wipe them away and turned to ask Yin Xia excitedly, "An An and Kang Kang can actually speak now?"

Yin Xia smiled and said, "No! The young master is smart and can speak early, and can say one or two words. The young lady is naughty and active, and her little mouth can't speak clearly."

When Yan Muxi left the island, the two little ones were still babies who could only blow bubbles. When they met again, they actually called her mother. How could she not be excited?

After getting on the carriage, the two children took off their windproof scarves, and Yan Muxi also removed her makeup, returning to her original appearance.

Yan Muxi wanted to hug the brother and sister, but she was afraid that they would be shy and frightened, so she could only tease them carefully.

After only a short moment of familiarity, Kang Kang stretched out his little arms, "Mom, hug me~"

When her son took the initiative to be intimate with her, Yan Muxi almost burst into tears on the spot. She quickly reached out to hug the little guy in her arms and kissed his little black face.

When An An saw his brother being held, he twisted his little body to slide down from Qiu Zhu and squeezed into Yan Muxi's arms.

Yan Muxi kissed her son on the left, and then kissed her daughter on the right. She felt that her life had never been as satisfying as it was at that moment.

Dong Yu, who was standing by, was jealous. "The young lady is getting prettier and prettier, and the young master seems to be whiter than before. They are so adorable!"

Yan Muxi looked at An An carefully. She had big, watery eyes, a pink little mouth, and a chubby little round face. She was incredibly pretty. Then she looked at Kang Kang. He seemed to be a little whiter than before, and he was also cute.

Maybe it was because blood is thicker than water, the mother and her two children only played for half an hour before they felt no strangeness at all. When they got off the carriage, the two kids both rushed to be held by Yan Muxi.

"He's really a smart little kid. He waited a few days to get acquainted with me, his step-grandmother, before letting me hold him. But now that he sees his real mother, he can't bear to let go after a while." Minghui walked out of the gate with a smile.

Yan Muxi didn't expect that she had also come to Huadao. She walked forward happily and asked, "When did Aunt Ming come to Huadao?"

Minghui took An An and held her in her arms. "I came here before the New Year. I thought we would be together for the New Year, but I didn't expect you to leave the island."

"I also wanted to come back earlier, but something happened suddenly. Let's not talk about this anymore. Aunt Ming, you won't leave when you come to the island this time!" Yan Muxi's tone unconsciously became a little coquettish.

"I'm used to following my heart. I'll decide whether to leave after I've stayed on the island long enough. Who knows, I might stay on the island for another two days, and then I really won't want to leave. It's all because of these two little things you gave birth to. They're more precious to me than you as a mother. I miss them so much when I can't see them for a quarter of an hour." Minghui looked at the mother and her two children with eyes full of doting.

Just after he said a few words, Qian Chongguang also walked out of the door, "You are finally back! If you don't come back, my neck will be two inches longer."

"Grandpa~" Yan Muxi walked forward happily, holding Qian Chongguang's arm and acting coquettishly, "Let me take a good look at how much Grandpa's neck has grown."

"How dare you make up such a story? You've been gone for more than half a year. Are you deliberately thinking that grandpa is worried to death?" Qian Chongguang frowned and pretended to be angry, his eyes full of heartache.

Yan Muxi smiled with eyes curved, "I was wrong, isn't that enough! Next time I will keep my word and come back earlier."

"There will be a next time?" Qian Chongguang glared, wanting to scold but not wanting to, and finally sighed helplessly, "Alas! This little face finally gained some flesh, but it's gone again."

It was not an illusion that the elders were too caring towards the younger ones. Yan Muxi had indeed lost weight. She was rounder after giving birth, and after six months of busy life, she had gained back the weight she had gained. Now she was frail and thin, and did not look like a woman who had given birth at all.

After returning to Magnolia Garden, Yan Muxi finally understood why the two little ones were not unfamiliar with her and even called her "mother".

Her portrait was hung in every room, even in front of the main hall, where an incense burner was placed and incense was lit, and people could kneel down and worship her.

"Whose idea was it to put all these paintings in the room?" Yan Muxi was both amused and touched.

Yin Xia raised her hand to claim her, "I was just afraid that the young lady and young master would forget about me!"

"Just forget it! How can I argue with a child?" Yan Muxi glanced at her with a smile.

Yin Xia smiled but said nothing. The twins were the result of great suffering on the part of the young lady.

The young lady has already lost her husband's love, and she doesn't want her to be sad and lost because of the unfamiliarity of the children. So even if the young lady misses the growth of the twins, she can't let the twins forget what their mother looks like.

After chatting, Yan Muxi called Yinxia aside and asked about something that had been on his mind, "Is Yuechan okay?"

"When Shunzi brought the witch doctor back last year, she was only breathing her last breath. Old doctor Lin gave her emergency treatment all night and barely saved her life, but she has been in a coma for several days. After Madam Ming came to the island, she gave her the best medicine, but she still hasn't woken up. Old doctor Lin and Madam Ming both said that if a person cannot wake up before the Lantern Festival, he or she will never wake up." Yinxia said truthfully.

Hearing this, Yan Muxi's good mood for returning to the island faded away in an instant. After a moment's pause, she sighed helplessly, "Everyone has their own destiny. We have tried our best. There is nothing we can do if we can't save him."

After coaxing the two little ones to sleep at night, Yan Muxi and Yinxia went to the rose garden to see Yuechan together.

In the warm room, perhaps because Yan Muxi was used to seeing it, Yuechan's uneven face was not as unsightly to the eyes as before.

She sat down on the round stool beside the bed and stared at the face for a long time. The more she looked, the sadder she felt.

If there had not been the massacre that year, the woman before him would have been extremely beautiful.

She should have been a delicate little princess of the Wu Yue tribe, but she lost her parents and home at a young age and her appearance was disfigured. She wasted half her life just seeking revenge.

Now, I am facing a life-and-death crisis before I am even forty. If I cannot survive it, I won’t even have the chance to see my enemies receive retribution.

She felt that it would be hard to find anyone in the world who was more miserable and miserable than Yuechan!

"I should call you my cousin, so I'll just call you aunt, it will seem closer... Ninth sister is my cousin's daughter, right? I haven't seen her for two years, and Ninth sister should have grown into a graceful young lady. I still remember when she first came into the mansion, she was so thin and small, and as obedient as a kitten. Even though I didn't like her, I couldn't bear to criticize her."

"At that time, I wondered what kind of mother had raised such a well-behaved and sensible girl like Ninth Sister... When we first met, I gave Ninth Sister a string of pink pearl bracelets, but she insisted on changing it to a jade bracelet. Now I think she must have wanted to give the bracelet to her own mother. She always thinks about it, so she must love her mother very much. Therefore, aunt must try to survive and don't let Ninth Sister, who loves you so much, be sad...

Regardless of whether people could hear her or not, Yan Muxi kept on talking for a long time.

She felt that apart from revenge, the most important thing to Yuechan should be her ninth sister. If her daughter couldn't move Yuechan in the slightest, she might never wake up.
