The Miracle Doctor’s Two-Faced Toddler

789 Mother and Son Is Safe, Three Little Sly Eggs

Zi Yan gave birth to a baby boy.
The child was fair and fat, except for his little face that was a little wrinkled.
However, his cries were really loud and clear.
It was obvious that he was a strong child.
This was a rare joyous occasion, be it in the Great Zhou or Nanzhao.

However, in the Lan family—

When she heard that it was not a baby girl, Madam Lan closed her eyes in despair.

Could it be fate? The heavens were going to destroy their bloodline?

From the moment Zi Yan was pregnant with Young Master’s children, she understood what hope she carried.
Like the Lan family, she also hoped to give birth to a saintess for the Lan family.
Of course, it didn’t mean that a baby girl could definitely be a saintess, but at least there was a fifty-fifty chance, right? Now that it was a boy, her hopes were dashed no matter what.

She looked at Madam Lan uneasily and then at the wailing child.
She suppressed her immense nervousness and almost couldn’t breathe.
The little maidservant and nanny guarding the bed did not dare to make a sound.
They silently held their breaths and the atmosphere in the room suddenly froze.

Yu Wan walked to the bed and picked up the swaddled little boy.
The moment he was picked up, the little fellow, who was originally wailing, suddenly stopped crying.
He tilted his head and yawned.
He was extremely cute.

“Second Grand-aunt, look.” In order to distinguish between the two aunts, Yu Wan simply changed her words.

Madam Lan felt that this address sounded even more intimate.
She restrained her thoughts and looked at Yu Wan.

Yu Wan carried the sleepy little fellow to her side and blinked.
“He looks like you.”

The child had just been born and he was wrinkled.
Who could she tell who he looked like? However, Madam Lan thought of her legitimate grandson.
That child indeed looked like her.
This was his flesh and blood and must have inherited his looks.

Her legitimate grandson was gone, but his bloodline was left.
A sour warmth surged in Madam Lan’s heart.
She put her walking stick aside and reached out with trembling hands to hug the wrinkled little fellow.
The moment the child approached her heart, she felt her love for him.

Seeing that Madam Lan finally revealed a gratified smile, Zi Yan heaved a long sigh of relief.

Exhausted from giving birth, Zi Yan quickly fell asleep.
The maidservant and the old nanny stayed behind to tidy up the room.
Yu Wan took the children and went to her room with Madam Lan.

Zi Yan had just given birth and did not have any milk yet.
Yu Wan went to the kitchen to make a bowl of rice soup.

Madam Lan wanted to stop her, but there were not enough servants in the courtyard.
The little maidservant and old nanny were already too busy.

Yu Wan brought over the cold rice soup and dipped a spoon into it to feed the little fellow.
The little fellow’s fetal hair stood on end!

“What’s wrong? Is it hot?” Yu Wan scooped a little and dripped it on the back of her hand.
“It’s not hot.”

Yu Wan dipped a little more to feed him, but the little fellow turned his head in disdain and refused to eat.
Yu Wan tried a few times but to no avail.
She concluded, “He doesn’t like rice soup.
I’ll make something else.”

The little fellow’s fetal hair was trembling!

Madam Lan held her hand in shame.
“Don’t work anymore.
Sit down.
You’ve been tired with the way the family is now.”

Yu Wan said, “I grew up in the countryside and am used to doing these jobs.
However, it’s really difficult for you to withstand such pressure at your age.”

Madam Lan shook her head.
“I was the one who committed the sin back then.
Now, I’m just reaping what I sowed.
If I hadn’t been soft-hearted and insisted on killing that pair of sluts, we wouldn’t be in this situation today.”

Yu Wan consoled, “What happened is in the past.
Don’t blame yourself.”

Madam Lan blamed herself not because she regretted it, but to remind herself that she could not fall like this.
Even if she only had her last breath, she wanted to return to the Lan family and regain her sister’s reputation, to take back what belonged to their bloodline.

“It’s hard on this child,” Madam Lan said.
“His family’s fortunes are in dire straits.
We can’t even afford a nanny.”

When she was expelled from the Nether Capital back then, she had almost left with nothing.
Other than the jewelry she was wearing that day, she had nothing valuable.

All these years, the jewelry had almost been pawned.
There was only a golden bracelet inlaid with gems left.
That was a gift from her husband on her wedding night.
She could not bear to sell it even when her days were the most difficult.

Now, she planned to sell it and hire a nanny for the children.

Although she might not be able to invite her, she had to try.

“Ah Wan, help me,” Madam Lan said to Yu Wan.

Yu Wan reached out and held Madam Lan’s arm as she followed her around the screen.
The child was crying from hunger, and Madam Lan felt like a knife was being twisted in her heart.

“Open this box.
The key is under the bed,” Madam Lan said, pointing to a large box beside the closet.

Yu Wan bent down and looked under the bed.
Seeing that she couldn’t see it, she simply reached out to touch a soft brocade pouch.
She pulled out the brocade pouch, opened it, and took out a key.
“Second Grand-aunt, is this it?”

“That’s right.” Madam Lan nodded.

Yu Wan took the key and unlocked it.
She pushed open the box lid.
There was a pile of cotton wool and clothes inside.

“What are you looking for?” She asked.

Madam Lan said, “There’s a mahogany box at the bottom.
Look for it.”

“Oh.” Yu Wan took out the clothes and cotton wool one by one.
There were quite a lot of boxes under them, but she did not see any peach wood.
“Are you sure it’s this box?”

Madam Lan nodded and said warmly, “Yes, I cleaned it up myself.”

Yu Wan took out the boxes one by one and opened them all to take a look.

“Found it!” Yu Wan handed the mahogany box to Madam Lan.

Madam Lan opened the box.
The bracelets were a pair, and there were a few red ropes in the box.
The red ropes were for decoration and were not worth much.
Madam Lan gave one of the bracelets to Yu Wan as a greeting gift for her little granddaughter.

She planned to take the other one out for the little maidservant.
At this moment, the cries on the other side of the screen disappeared.
Madam Lan was surprised.
Why did he stop crying? Could it be that he was tired from crying and fell asleep?

Of course, the little fellow was not asleep.

The three chubby little munchkins crossed the big (gate) mountain and flowed through the stream (pit).
They came to the cradle and held the little milk bottle in both hands.
As they drank the milk, they looked at their crying little brother without blinking.

Pop!

Dabao pulled the pacifier out of his mouth and stuffed it into the little brother’s mouth.
The little fellow, who had been poisoned by the disgusting rice soup until he doubted his life, suddenly tasted a sweet taste and immediately started drinking!

When Madam Lan and Yu Wan walked around the screen, they saw three fat little munchkins standing in front of the cradle, taking turns to feed the little fellows with small milk bottles.

Madam Lan was stunned.
Whose children were these? What were they feeding her great-grandson?

“Dabao, Er’bao, Xiaobao.” Yu Wan was slightly surprised.
“Why are you here?”

“You know them?” This time, it was Madam Lan who was surprised.

“My sons,” Yu Wan said with a smile.

“Ah…” Madam Lan was so shocked that she was speechless.

She and her sister had twins.
This was already considered rare in the Nether Capital.
She had never seen triplets, and all of them were so beautiful.
Their big black eyes, chubby cheeks, and heroic eyebrows looked like the little fairy children in the painting.

The three of them looked at their mother and Madam Lan.
Their ignorant gaze melted Madam Lan’s heart.

“What are you doing?” Yu Wan asked softly.

“Feeding my little brother,” Xiaobao said in a childish voice.

“It’s boiled goat milk,” Yu Wan explained to Madam Lan.

Madam Lan was enlightened.
“No wonder he was willing to drink.
Why didn’t I think of this method?”

After the three of them fed him, the little fellow fell asleep in satisfaction.

Yu Wan waved at her sons and the three of them ran over.
Yu Wan patted their heads.
“This is Dabao, Er’bao, and Xiaobao.” She then said to the three of them, “This is Great-Grandma.”

Another great-grandmother? They had many grandfathers, many grandmothers, and it was not strange for there to be many great-grandmothers.

Xiaobao and Er’bao sweetly called her “Great-Grandma”.
Dabao nodded, indicating that he also called her Great-Grandma.

Madam Lan had never seen such obedient children before, so her heart was warm.
She placed the box on the table and turned to get the candy, only to find the three little munchkins staring at her box.

Did they take a fancy to that bracelet? That’s true.
There were many gems embedded in the bracelet.
Children loved such beautiful things.

Madam Lan pushed the box over.
“It’s for you.
Take it and play.”

Their eyes lit up, but they did not immediately reach out to take it.
Instead, they looked at Yu Wan, who said, “Have to say thank you to Great-Grandma.”

They thanked Great-Grandma before reaching out to take the box down.
Then, the three of them threw away the golden bracelet, grabbed the little red rope inside, picked up the box, and ran to play!
