Chapter 474

Sure enough, after a brief moment of bewilderment upon seeing the milk bottle, Lady He soon realized this.

But she thought the milk bottle was made of translucent porcelain, quite valuable.

Although she thought this, she only felt the milk bottle was valuable. She didn't have any other suspicions.

In any case, the two little treasures had full stomachs, and as their grandmother she felt assured.

That night, the Mo Family were in joy because of the birth of the twins.

Not only that, but the news that He Zhiran had smoothly given birth to a pair of twin siblings also spread through the village.

Early the next morning, villagers came one after another to the Mo Family to offer eggs, local specialties, and the like as gifts of celebration.

Fang Chuanzhou, Xie Tianhai, Hu Cong, and Consort De also came over.

The gifts they brought were naturally much higher quality than those the villagers brought.

The villagers didn't know, but these people were clear.

The Mo Family seemed to have been cursed - although their sons were all married, not one had been able to have children.

Now that He Zhiran had successfully given birth to twins, it could be said that this unspeakable anguish of the Mo Family was thoroughly broken.

These several people were truly happy for the Mo Family.

Old Lady Mo kept praising that her ninth daughter-in-law was one with great fortune, giving birth all at once to two children who together formed the character for "good".

With descendants, the Mo Family people had even more hope for their future life.

They went about their daily work even more diligently than before, all hoping that through their own efforts, they could create an even better and more comfortable living environment for the two little ones.

On the day the two little ones had their head shaving ceremony, the Mo Family was exceptionally lively, with many guests coming without even needing to be invited. The guests were naturally still the people close with the Mo Family and the villagers.

After the liveliness, the two little ones were held and brought back to He Zhiran's side. The guests had just left when the seventh son, who had gone south to search for the old troops, returned.

He came back alone. Seeing the guests who had just left the house one after another with happy expressions, he guessed something auspicious must have happened in the family.

Therefore, Mo Yuance quickened his pace.

The eldest and second brothers were seeing the guests off. With one glance, they saw the travel-stained Mo Yuance.

"Big Brother, Second Brother." Mo Yuance came to stand in front of the two elder brothers and pulled them towards the courtyard. "Father and our brothers are home right?"

"I'll go call everyone right now." Knowing he had something to say, Second Brother immediately ran off to gather people.

Soon, with the exception of Mo Chuhan who was away taking up office, the Mo men gathered together in the main house.

Mo Yuance first paid his respects to his parents, then excitedly said, "Thanks to good fortune, my trip south went very smoothly. I've brought back nine hundred brothers."

"I took into consideration that bringing such a large group of people into the city in broad daylight would be no good. So I had them disguise themselves as ordinary commoners and enter the city bit by bit, taking a roundabout way to enter the village from the west side."

Mo Qing nodded in satisfaction. "Mm, Yuance has gone to great effort."

Then he turned his head to look at Mo Jiacheng. "Jiacheng, take a few people to the west side and when those subordinates arrive, arrange for people to escort them up the mountain."

Mo Jiuye had already installed mobile housing up the mountain. Although Mo Qing hadn't directly participated, he was aware of the matter.

Now that these people had arrived, they could immediately settle up the mountain without needing many people to worry over and arrange things.

Seeing his father mention this, Mo Jiacheng was reminded. "Father, don't you plan to meet them first?"

How could Mo Qing possibly not want to first meet those good brothers who had followed the Mo sons through life and death?

It was just that his legs and feet were really inconvenient right now.

His inconvenient mobility was just an excuse in his heart. The true reason was that Mo Qing always felt he had already become a cripple, too ashamed to show his face before those people.

"I won't go today. Everyone has gone to great pains hurrying on the road. Send them to go rest first."

His sons of course understood their father's thoughts. They saw through it but didn't speak of it.

"Alright, I'll go to the west side to receive them now." After speaking, the second son went out to gather people.

After the second son left, Mo Yuance asked, "Father, Mother, I saw a lot of guests being seen off from the house earlier. Did something festive happen in the family?"

His younger sister's wedding had been on June 12th. He hadn't made it back from the south for it. Could it be that his ninth younger brother's wife had given birth?

Speaking of the family's festive event, Old Lady Mo's expression lit up with a smile.

"While you were gone, you really did miss two happy events in the family. You weren't here for Han Yue marrying into the family. Then a few days ago, your ninth younger brother's wife gave your father and me a grandson and a granddaughter."

"Mother, did you say ninth younger brother's wife gave birth to a pair of twins, a brother and a sister?" Old Lady Mo nodded with a smile. "Yes, precisely as you said. The pillar is the elder brother, Mingzhu is the little sister."

Mo Yuance already came to stand in front of Mo Jiuye, heavily thudding him on the shoulder.

"Still, it's impressive for you little rascal, continuing the incense for our Mo family."

Although the punch looked a bit heavy, for Mo Jiuye it was nothing much.

"Seventh brother, Zhiran gave the sisters-in-law health preserving medicine. I trust it won't be long before more and more children will be born in our family."

Whether others believed it or not, he wouldn't doubt his wife's medical skills one bit.

It was only a matter of time before his sisters-in-law became pregnant and gave birth.

Because Mo Yuance returned and was saying serious matters in the main house, the sisters-in-law, even if curious, wouldn't come forward and intrude to listen together.

Some of the rules they had in the capital still hadn't completely changed yet. That was, women wouldn't crowd forward when men were discussing major affairs.

Although they couldn't come forward and listen openly, that didn't stop them from waiting outside the house.

Mo Jiuye hadn't lowered his voice too much just now when speaking, plus he didn't intentionally try to avoid anyone hearing. Therefore, his words had been heard very clearly by the sisters-in-law.

Now, the second sister-in-law was completely unable to remain calm.

She quickly strode to the door and loudly asked those inside the house, "Ninth younger brother, you weren't just trying to comfort your seventh elder brother earlier, were you?"

Otherwise, why was there still no sign whatsoever from their group of sisters after having already taken the medicine for so long?

"Impossible. Ruan Ruan's medical skills are clear for all to see. Since she said the poison in the sisters-in-laws can be eliminated, then it definitely can be eliminated."

Just as the second sister-in-law was about to retort something, there was a sudden din from the crowd of women behind her.

"Sixth younger sister-in-law, what's the matter, hurry and wake up."

"Sixth sister-in-law... sixth sister-in-law..."

Hearing this voice, everyone rushed to the courtyard. There they only saw the sixth sister-in-law with a somewhat pale complexion, eyes tightly shut, half slumped and supported in the arms of the eldest sister-in-law.

When something happened with their daughters-in-law, the sixth elder brother rushed to the very front.

But he didn't lose his head to anxiously. He stepped forward to wrap his arm around his wife's waist and pick her up. Looking towards Mo Jiuye, he said, "Ninth younger brother, terribly sorry to trouble asking your wife to take a look at sixth sister-in-law."

Xi Ling Village didn't have any doctors. When villagers got sick, they either had to go to the neighboring village to ask doctors to make a special trip over or go the Yun City medical center.

Even so, the medical skills of those doctors still weren't as superb as the ninth younger sister-in-law.

It was just that the ninth younger sister-in-law was currently in her postpartum confinement period. If it wasn't because the sixth elder brother was too worried about his wife's condition, he also wouldn't suggest going to disturb her.
