“Cut~” Xue Ziyan mocked, “A big man competing in beauty with me, besides you, there's no one else!”
“Alright, Ziyan, why are you always at odds with Brother Huangfu?” Tan Yun said, somewhat speechless.
Mu Mengyi and Zhong Wu Shi Yao laughed heartily.
At this moment, Nangong Yuqin put on a straw hat again, covering her head full of white hair and hiding her face.
A day later, the Spirit Vessel sailed out of the Heavenly Punishment Mountain Range. During the journey, Shen Subing remained silent, but her gaze occasionally drifted towards Tan Yun...
In the blink of an eye, another day passed, and at dusk, the Spirit Vessel appeared above Wangyue Town amidst the Sea of Clouds.
To avoid alarming the townsfolk, Shen Subing retracted the Spirit Vessel. The seven of them descended like seven shooting stars, steadily landing outside the Tan Residence.
The guards stationed at the main gate looked at Tan Yun, rubbed their eyes in disbelief, and then hurriedly rushed into the Tan Residence, shouting, "Head of the family, madam, the young master has returned!"
The guard's voice was loud, echoing throughout the Tan Residence.
Instantly, over a hundred guards, maids, and servants from within the residence excitedly ran toward the main gate!
At this moment, Tan Feng, Feng Jingru, and Old Master Tan, who were having dinner, trembled in their seats.
"H-Husband... did I hear that right?" Feng Jingru looked at Tan Feng, her eyes filled with longing, "Is Yun'er back?"
Just then, the guard who had been at the gate rushed to the main hall, panting heavily and exclaimed, "Head of the family, the young master has returned with two young mistresses!"
"Bang!"
Feng Jingru dropped the chopsticks in her hand onto the floor and immediately ran toward the hall's exit.
"Madam, slow down... slow down!" As Tan Feng spoke, he got up, following Old Master Tan closely behind.
At this moment, in the back garden of the Tan Residence, the guards and servants stood respectfully in front of Tan Yun, bowing in unison, "We greet the young master!"
Then, they bowed to Zhong Wu Shi Yao and Mu Mengyi, saying, "We greet the two young mistresses!"
Since more than a decade ago when Tan Yun brought Mu Mengyi and Zhong Wu Shi Yao home for a family visit, the servants had known that the two women were future daughters-in-law of the Tan Family.
At this moment, Zhong Wu Shi Yao and Mu Mengyi, watching everyone bowing to them, were flushed with redness and shyness.
Shen Subing and Huangfu Yu appeared somewhat lost in thought, not knowing what to say.
Xue Ziyan's beautiful eyes revealed a hint of envy.
At this moment, no one knew that Nangong Yuqin, wearing a straw hat, looked around the Tan Residence and felt an inexplicable heartache—a familiar yet strange feeling gnawing at her heart.
"Yun'er, my good son!" Suddenly, a voice filled with endless longing came from behind Tan Yun.
Tan Yun turned around abruptly and saw Feng Jingru, tears of longing streaming down her face as she rushed toward him.
"Mother!" Tan Yun's figure flashed, "Bang!" He knelt heavily on the ground, "Your unfilial son has come back to see you!"
Feng Jingru helped Tan Yun up, tears of joy rolling down her cheeks, "Good child, it's enough just to come back, just to come back!"
At this moment, Tan Feng and Old Master Tan also arrived in front of Tan Yun.
Tan Yun was about to kneel again when he was supported by Tan Feng, "Good child, it's enough just to come back, no need to kneel so easily."
Tan Yun stepped back a bit but still knelt, "Yun'er greets Father, greets Grandfather!"
"Good grandson, quickly get up!" Old Master Tan kindly helped Tan Yun up.
At this time, Mu Mengyi and Zhong Wu Shi Yao bowed to Old Master Tan, Tan Feng, and Feng Jingru, saying, "We greet Grandfather, we greet Uncle and Aunt."
Old Master Tan and Tan Feng smiled happily.
Feng Jingru looked lovingly at Mu Mengyi and Zhong Wu Shi Yao, saying, "Tell Aunt, has Yun'er bullied you these years?"
"No, he has been very good to us," the two women replied with smiles.
