She paused, and Meng Zhuqing carefully explained, "The Prince and Princess live outside the city in a quiet place, so I always have to patrol around to prevent any accidents. I just came back today to see you, and after I change my clothes, I have to leave again."
Upon hearing this, Old Lady Meng immediately agreed, "The safety of Prince Yi and the Princess is crucial. I won’t bother you to find a girl. Take good care of the Prince and Princess, and make sure your father can rest peacefully in the netherworld."
Meng Zhuqing breathed a sigh of relief and replied, "Yes, mother."
An Jing had just placed the last item in their new home when she turned and smiled at Xiao Changyi, "Husband, it’s done, this is our new home from now on!"
"I was worried that the children might not adapt, but look at them..." An Jing pointed at the four children who were joyfully climbing the steps, "It turns out I was worried for nothing."
Xiao Changyi watched the children and said, "Our children can adapt anywhere."
Thinking about how the children hadn’t shown any discomfort during their journey, An Jing nodded, "It seems so."
Then, An Jing crouched down and clapped her hands at the children, "Jing’er, Star, Qinger, Yun Er, come, quickly come to daddy and mommy."
The house was made of wood, with a raised foundation, requiring climbing six steps from the ground to the porch, and then to the hall.
At that moment, An Jing was squatting at the doorway of the hall, while the four children were enthusiastically climbing those six steps.
Upon hearing An Jing’s voice, the four children first looked at An Jing, then hurriedly climbed up to the porch and stood up, running towards An Jing and Xiao Changyi.
The wooden floor creaked under their steps.
Su Yixing and An Yiqing ran while giggling happily.
Although Su Yi Jing didn’t laugh, he was the fastest and was the first to reach An Jing’s arms.
Little An Yiyun, who couldn’t run yet, lagged behind, still wobbling along the way after Su Yi Jing, Su Yixing, and An Yiqing had run to An Jing.
Xiao Changyi did not crouch down, just stood there.
Su Yi Jing, Su Yixing, and An Yiqing all crowded into An Jing’s arms, but fortunately, they were small enough for her to easily embrace them.
Seeing her youngest son still wobbling along, An Jing laughed and said to her other three sons, "Jing’er, Star, Qinger, could one of you go help your younger brother? He has a harder time walking, and his body isn’t as strong as yours. Could you help him, please?"
Then, Xiao Changyi also crouched down, right next to An Jing, and spoke to the three little ones in An Jing’s embrace, "Go help your younger brother, you are his older brothers, and you need to take care of him."
Only then did Su Yi Jing, Su Yixing, and An Yiqing come out of An Jing’s embrace and ran to An Yiyun to help him.
But An Yiyun only had two hands. Su Yi Jing and An Yiqing, running a bit faster, each took one, leaving Su Yixing without a hand to hold.
Su Yixing looked confused for a moment, then decisively grabbed the hand of his older brother, Su Yi Jing.
Then, Su Yi Jing, Su Yixing, An Yiqing, with An Yiyun’s slow steps, hand in hand walked towards An Jing and Xiao Changyi.
The four little ones looked really adorable this way.
