Chapter 617, Aunt Cui's Illness (3 more)

Now that the children were nearly ten months old, plump and tenderly rosy, they were so adorable. Yun Jinnian looked at them and hooked his lips into a slight smile.

He asked gently, "Are these Xiaoliu and Xiaoqi?"

"Answering Fourth Miss, indeed they are Xiaoliu and Xiaoqi!" Aunt Lian could hardly hide her excitement.

In the past, she didn't think being a concubine was bad, but only now did she realize, what's good about it?

She had no idea what the outside world was like, confined as she was; not allowed out of the main gate nor the second gate. How good could life be for the children she raised?

One day, when she moved to the outer court, if she had no one to rely on, it wouldn't be just her future at stake, but even her life might be in danger.

Therefore, learning that Yun Jinnian had returned, she mustered the courage to bring the children to the garden. She was indeed in luck to have encountered Yun Jinnian.
