The Road to Becoming a Son-in-Law

Chapter 346 They are good people

"The eldest young master's health is already weak. Although the two young masters are small, they are not light together. Just don't tire out the eldest young master."

Murong San and Murong Si, who were already worried about Murong Chen's health, became even more anxious upon hearing the butler's words. Murong San, with a solemn little face, said gravely, "Brother, please put us down quickly."

“It’s been so long since we last saw each other. I know you must miss us a lot, because we miss you too. But you can’t hold us forever, we’re not two or three years old anymore.”

Murong San and Murong Si tried to persuade Murong Chen with both reason and emotion, hoping that he would quickly let go of them.

After all, the two of them vividly remembered when Murong Chen almost lost his life to the King of Hell. Moreover, over the years, the image of their brother, so weak that he couldn't even lift a chicken, had been deeply ingrained in Murong San and Murong Si's hearts. Although they weren't heavy, even Murong Yunhai would find it a little strenuous to lift them both. The two were also very sensible and rarely let Murong Yunhai carry them, let alone Murong Chen, who was much weaker than Murong Yunhai.

Looking at his two younger brothers' tense and anxious expressions, and the servants beside him who were trying to lift Murong San and Murong Si down with worried expressions, Murong Chen didn't know what to feel at the moment. He felt helpless and amused at the same time.

However, Murong Chen understood in his heart that it was no wonder they were so cautious. He himself knew how bad his health had been before; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was panting after every step. But now, he was no longer the same person he used to be.

Murong Chen said, "Xiao San, Xiao Si, and Uncle Liu, you don't need to worry so much. My body is fine."

To show that he was in good health, Murong Chen even bounced Murong San and Murong Si around a bit. However, to his surprise, instead of putting San down, he became even more worried.

Murong Si almost cried and said, "Brother, please put us down quickly."

"Brother, how come you're even more immature than me and Xiao Si? Put us down right now."

Uncle Liu also said from the side, "Young Master, give me the two young masters."

Murong Chen looked at the three people who were still extremely worried about his health and patiently said, "Don't worry, I'm in great health."

"Don't even mention just carrying Xiao San and Xiao Si, even if you add two more of them, I can still carry them."

"……elder brother!"

Murong Chen looked at the still uneasy little boy and the worried Uncle Liu, and said, "Haven't you noticed?"

All three were puzzled: "What did you find?"

Murong Chen said, "I've been holding Xiao San and Xiao Si for so long, and my expression hasn't changed at all."

Upon hearing Murong Chen's words, the three of them realized what they had overlooked earlier. After looking at Murong Chen's complexion, they were all stunned. Murong Chen's complexion was rosy, showing no signs of the weakness they had expected.

They were so worried about Murong Chen carrying them for so long that they just wanted him to put them down as soon as possible, and forgot to pay attention to these things.

At this moment, it was noticed that Murong San, Murong Si, and even another adult, Uncle Liu, all had stunned and shocked expressions on their faces.

Seeing the shocked expressions on the three men's faces, Murong Chen said with amusement, "So, Xiao San, Xiao Si, and Uncle Liu, you don't need to think of me as so weak."

“I’m not a porcelain doll, and I’m not as weak as I used to be.”

"Really...really?" Murong Sanlian forgot her worries and asked blankly, "Is brother really cured?"

“Yes.” Murong Chen said with a gentle expression, “Now that brother is better, he can carry Xiao San and Xiao Si.”

Murong Chen thought that his words would put the two children at ease, but after he finished speaking, Murong San and Murong Si hesitated for a moment before saying, "Brother, please put us down first."

Having no other choice, Murong Chen had to put his two younger brothers down. Once they were put down, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief. Although their older brother/eldest son said that he was feeling better and not as weak as before, Murong Chen's image in their minds had been fixed for many years and was not so easy to change.

However, remembering what Murong Chen had just said, Murong San and Murong Si grabbed Murong Chen's sleeve again, looked up at him expectantly, and asked, "Brother, is it true that you're better? You didn't lie to us?"

"It's true." Murong Chen said gently, "When have you ever seen your brother lie to them?"

Murong San and Murong Si thought about it and agreed. Murong Si then asked, "Then brother, will you..." Murong Si's little face was full of worry and caution, "Will it be like last time?"

The two little children still felt lingering fear when they thought about how Murong Chen was lying on the bed with barely any breath. They really thought they were going to lose their brother, but thankfully they didn't.

"It won't happen again." Murong Chen realized he had worried his two younger brothers last time, and a hint of guilt flashed across his handsome face. He earnestly said to them, "I promise you, I will never do that again. If you don't believe me, I swear to you..."

"No need, no need." The two little children shook their heads quickly and said, "We believe everything you say to us, so you don't need to swear to us, brother. We believe you."

"As long as brother doesn't do that again for a few days, Xiao San and Xiao Si are scared."

Uncle Liu looked at the three brothers and said, "Young Master, you and the two younger brothers talk for a while, I'm going out to buy something."

"it is good."

After Uncle Liu left, the three brothers continued their conversation, but it was mostly Murong San and Murong Si asking questions, while Murong Chen answered them.

"Brother, what have you been doing all this time?" Murong San asked, lying on Murong Si's lap. After Murong San asked this question, Murong Si also looked at Murong Chen curiously and said, "Brother, we've missed you so much all this time."

"I miss you all too," Murong Chen said. "Didn't you all want to know why my health has improved?"

Thinking of He Fei and Chen Feng, Murong Chen felt grateful and said to Murong San and Murong Si, "After taking the medicine prescribed by Sister He, my brother's health improved significantly. Later, he learned martial arts moves from Brother Chen, and now his body is not only no longer as weak as before, but also much stronger. You no longer need to worry that my brother's health will be the same as before."

"That's good." Murong San and Murong Si's faces showed relief, followed by gratitude. They said, "Sister He and Brother Chen are such good people. We will definitely repay them in the future."

"Yes." Murong Chen said with a smile, "Brother will repay them well."
