Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

When Yuan Zhao Di heard his father say that he could no longer drink, he was initially slightly stunned and did not understand why. However, after he thought about it, he understood.

If he were to get drunk and spill the beans, their family would have no way out.

The imperial court’s navy had pretended to be pirates and massacred dragon head dock. They must be hiding something. So, this matter must remain a secret.

“Father, I understand. I will never drink again!”

Yuan Zhao Di looked at his father and whispered, “Father, I’ve decided. I won’t go out to find work in the future. I’ll stay home and go farming and hunting with the others!”

“Alright!” Old Yuan agreed decisively.

Although Yuan Zhao Di could earn money by working outside, it would be hard when he had to entertain people and not touch any alcohol.

After Yuan Zhao Di and his father settled the matter, they spoke no more and let Yuan Zhao Di talk to Madame Li. But they did not manage to talk for long before Yuan Zhao Di fell asleep.

Yesterday’s incident had scared him to death, and coupled with the long journey back home, Yuan Zhao Di was truly exhausted.

“Jiao Jiao, may the heavens bless you!” Watching her man fall asleep, Madame Li hugged Yuan Bao and did not forget to thank God.

Yuan Bao was also in a good mood. After all, her father had returned alive.

Although her father didn’t say much, she vaguely felt there was something else to this. However, she couldn’t say anything. Even if there was a hidden story, she couldn’t do anything.

As a child, her body couldn’t take it staying awake for long. While listening to her mother’s nagging, Yuan Bao quickly fell asleep.

…

When Yuan Bao woke up again, she felt her surroundings were noisy. She could sense that many people were talking in the courtyard.

With Yuan Zhao Di’s safe return, everyone in the Yuan family rushed to have a meal.

Other than that, people from the village came over to talk, which was quite lively.

Yuan Bao, who had just woken up, felt the hunger in her stomach and immediately started wailing.

Her mother heard the commotion and quickly appeared.

“Jiao Jiao, are you hungry? Be good, don’t cry. Come, I will feed you milk!”

“Li, do you have enough milk?”

While Yuan Bao was smacking his lips and enjoying the food, Madame Zeng pushed open the door and entered, looking at Madame Li, who was feeding Yuan Bao.

Having twins was a good thing, but feeding two babies simultaneously could easily lead to a lack of milk.

“Mother, it’s alright!” Madame Li looked at her mother-in-law and responded in a low voice.

“I made you some crucian carp soup. Have two more bowls later.”

“Thank you, mother!”

“We’re family. There’s no need to thank me!”

Madame. Zeng waved her hand with a smile, “You’re a great hero to our Yuan family!”

The Yuan family had a female in five generations. The Yuan family was grateful for the young Madame Li’s contribution.

Moreover, everyone in the Yuan family now thought Yuan Bao was their Lucky Star. After all, it was Yuan Bao’s good fortune that Yuan Zhao Di was able to return safe and sound after suffering such a disaster.

“Mother, please don’t say that!” When Madame Li heard Madame Zeng’s words, she quickly waved her hands. She didn’t think she deserved this title.

After all, the children she gave birth to were all children of the Yuan family.

“It’s okay! Your sisters-in-law think so too. ”

“In the future, if there’s anything you need, just tell me. We can stew chicken or eat fish if there’s not enough milk. You’re the one who gave birth to two children!”
