After the marriage was severed, I fled with my golden finger to protect my mother

Seeing this, the second wife didn't know what to say, so she simply asked her mother, who was serving her, to go with her.

Just as a few people agreed to go out, a group of people came in, led by the old princess who was holding Yuxiu's hand.

Yuxiu had already changed into a clean women's dress. After entering the flower hall, she first called Cui "mother" and then bowed to all the ladies in the room.

"You haven't been eating well these days, girl? How come you seem to have lost some weight after not seeing you for a while?"

The old princess held her little granddaughter's hand, and looked at her left and right, saying that she was thin because of hunger, which made everyone join in.

"You have indeed lost weight. Is there nothing delicious to eat in the farm?"

"Grandma, I'm not thinner, I'm taller."

Seeing that Cui was looking at her with concern, Yuxiu hurriedly explained and gestured at the top of her head. Only then did everyone realize that after not seeing her for more than a month, the girl had indeed grown a lot taller.

Everyone talked lively for a while, and Xu Lewan was also picked up by someone. She greeted everyone very embarrassedly, and then sat next to Xu Leyao.

Now that everyone is here, the next important part of the day is to send blessings to the two little babies.

So everyone moved to the hall next door, and the two children were brought out by the serving maids.

A blessed old lady from all corners of the capital was specially invited to perform the "baby washing" ceremony.

The large wooden basin contains soup made from noon grass, which emits a slight hot steam. It is meant to wash away the dirt for the child so that he or she will have a smooth and peaceful life in the future.

The two little babies were not afraid of people. They fluttered around naked in the wooden tub, and soon splashed water all over the floor, making everyone else laugh. The blessed old lady also kept saying auspicious words on the side.

Yuxiu was watching with some curiosity. As far as she knew, in many places people only wash their babies on the third and fourth moons. However, Cui said that the custom here was to hold the ceremony on the full moon, which made sense.

As the bride's family, Uncle Cui and Old Lady Cui first gave the children clothes that they had prepared long ago, and also gave each of them a longevity lock.

Next came the old princess, the grandmother, who also generously sent many gifts.

As for the others, needless to say, they all stepped forward and gave the two children their blessings.

The ceremony was soon completed. The old patriarch of the Xu family stepped forward, took out the family tree in public, and wrote down the names of Xu Qinghe's family in the presence of everyone.

The names of the two children were also chosen in advance. According to the Xu family tree, they were of the same generation as the Xu Yunzhe brothers, so they were named Xu Yunnuo and Xu Yunlei.

"I will personally deliver the family tree to the ancestral hall later. When the children are a hundred days old, your family can go and pay homage to the ancestors of the Xu family, and ask them to bless the two children to grow up safely and without illness or disaster."

The clan leader said to Xu Qinghe that from now on they would be the third branch of the Ning Prince's Mansion. Although they had agreed not to move into the Ning Prince's Mansion, they could not forget that they were people of the Ning Prince's Mansion and they should move around as needed and be filial to their parents as needed.

Xu Qinghe smiled and agreed to the clan leader's words. He had finally found his ancestral home and returned to his roots, so naturally he should be filial to his mother and be friendly to his brothers.

"Master and Madam, someone is coming from the palace."

At this moment, the butler came over in person to report, and spoke a few words to Xu Qinghe in a low voice.

"Ask Dazhu to keep an eye on the man, and deal with this matter after the people in the palace leave."

Xu Qinghe's eyes were sharp. After giving a few instructions to the housekeeper, he returned to his original smiling face and led everyone out to greet the people from the palace.

The person who came this time was the housekeeper of Concubine Jing. The old princess had already informed her about the family affairs. When she learned that Xu Qinghe's family was the third branch of Prince Ning's Mansion, she was surprised but quickly accepted it. However, she did not react.

It was not until today, the full-month banquet for the Xu family’s two children, that she specially asked someone to deliver several boxes of gifts that had been prepared in advance.

People in higher positions, such as the Empress Dowager and the Empress, were naturally well-connected and had known about this for a long time. When they saw Concubine Jing had sent so many gifts, they also sent rewards.

The strange thing was that one of the boxes was filled with medical books. Xu Qinghe flipped through them casually and found that they were all medical books he had never heard of before.

After looking at the gift list brought by the housekeeper, I discovered that this was actually a reward from the emperor.

"Strange, why would His Majesty send us medical books?"

Xu Qinghe felt strange, but was confused for a moment.

"These are rare medical books outside. Maybe they heard that my mother is a disciple of the Divine Doctor Sect, so they gave these to her as a reward."

Yuxiu speculated and Xu Qinghe also felt that it made sense, so without thinking too much, he had the body carried to the backyard.

Cui asked her maid to fetch the purse that had been prepared in advance and sent everyone who came from the palace away properly.

By this time, the Xu family's hundred-day banquet had ended, and Cui prepared a return gift for everyone, which contained some common items such as red eggs.

The only unusual thing was that everyone invited today received a small medicine bottle, which contained only a small pill.

According to Cui, this is a detoxification pill with a unique formula of the miracle doctor, which can cure all kinds of poisons in the world. After taking it, it can keep people from being harmed by poisons for a long time.

This was truly an unexpected gain, and it made those who had come here today just to make their own faces very happy.

This detoxification pill can save a life at a critical moment, so doesn’t that give me another chance to survive?

Everyone spontaneously put the detoxification pills into their own arms, preparing not to tell anyone and keeping them for emergency use.

“Grandma… wuwuwu… do you really not want Ledie anymore?”

"I'm Yunxuan... Grandma, I want to go home. Grandma, Yunxuan misses you and wants to go home with you..."

Just as the guests of the Xu family were walking out one after another, two figures suddenly rushed out from behind a big tree and fell in front of the old princess.

"Grandma, please let us go home. We are the children of the Xu family. We have been raised by you since we were young. Even if we have a cat or a dog, you can't just chase them away..."

Xu Letie grabbed the old princess's skirt and cried with tears and snot, but even so, she was still able to clearly express her purpose.

"Grandma, look at your most beloved grandson. It's only been a short time since he moved out, and he's already so skinny. It's all because he misses you so much, doesn't eat enough, and can't sleep..."
