Editor: Henyee Translations

Gu Dajiang sat down and didn’t hide it from her. “It’s all thanks to Yundong that Liu Niang is at home. Actually, I only found them a few months ago. To be honest, I was already prepared for the worst. I didn’t expect Yundong to protect her mother and younger siblings. Only then did our family reunite.”

Gu Dafeng was very happy to hear that. “That’s good, that’s good. You’re all safe and sound. That’s better than anything.”

Bian Han also nodded repeatedly, but… his children.

He gently tugged at his hand and secretly took a few deep breaths. Finally, he raised his head and asked with difficulty, “Dajiang, do you know anything about Mulan and her brother?”

Gu Dafeng also looked at him instantly. She had wanted to ask him for a long time, but she was afraid.

Gu Dajiang fell silent, and Gu Yundong turned her head away slightly.

Seeing this, Gu Dafeng and her husband understood everything.

Their eyes immediately turned red and swollen as tears streamed down their faces.

They shouldn’t have asked. Indeed, they shouldn’t have asked.

Gu Yundong could not bear it. “Aunt…”

“It’s alright, I know.” Gu Dafeng waved her hand. “We’ve already made preparations. There’s nothing to eat and very little water for such a long journey…” As she spoke, she choked up. “There are robbers and murderers everywhere on the road. It wasn’t easy for us to reach Qing’an Prefecture, but we still encountered trouble. Their chances of survival were not high. We all know that…”

Gu Yundong slowly squatted down and handed her a handkerchief. She said in a low voice, “Aunt, Cousin Mulan is indeed gone.”

As soon as she confirmed this, Gu Dafeng cried out. She could not take it anymore and started crying.

Gu Yundong let her vent her frustration and gently patted her back.

After a long time, her crying gradually turned into sobs. She clearly wanted to try her best to control them, but it was especially difficult.

Gu Dajiang looked at Gu Yundong in disagreement, but the latter insisted that she should tell her aunt about Cousin Mulan first. Letting her cry was better than anything else.

Bian Han’s pain was much more restrained. Although he was also crying, his voice was still suppressed.

He reached out and patted the back of Gu Dafeng’s hand. “Stop crying. Let’s not cry anymore. Ah.”

“I-I feel terrible. I feel terrible.”

Children died before their parents. Her two children were still so young. How could they be gone? How could they be gone?

“But Aunt, Yuanzhi is still alive.”

“What did you say?” Gu Dafeng raised her head abruptly. She felt like she was hallucinating.

Bian Han also looked at Gu Yundong in surprise.

Gu Yundong said, “Yuanzhi is still here. He was brought back to Yongning Prefecture by the Ding Family. I brought him here. He’s in the prefectural city now. We’ll be able to see him when we go back later.”

“R-really? Are you serious?” Gu Dafeng grabbed Gu Yundong’s shoulder. The anticipation in her eyes made her exert force.

Gu Yundong did not feel any pain. She just smiled and nodded. “It’s true. He’s in the prefectural city.”

“He’s alive. Yuanzhi is still alive. He is still alive.”

There were still tears in Gu Dafeng’s eyes as she looked at Father Bian, who was trembling with excitement.

She didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Her mood fluctuated. A moment ago, she felt that the sky was about to collapse. Now, she was told that Yuanzhi was still around.

In the end, the couple hugged each other and cried.

It was almost dark when Gu Yundong brought the two of them into the carriage and went home.
