Falling into the mortal world

Seeing that she couldn't get any useful information, Lan Qingqing revealed a fierce expression. She gritted her teeth and said, "Just throw them out into the street. Having their tendons severed is probably more painful than letting them die."

Lan Qingqing's eyes were fierce, sending chills down one's spine.

She couldn't be merciful to these people just thinking about how they almost killed her three treasures and five treasures.

She knew these men were just following orders, but they had no kindness whatsoever for her children. Even if they had shown the slightest kindness, even just a little, and called a doctor for Sanbao and Wubao, she wouldn't have killed them. Death would be too easy for them. She was going to make them suffer a fate worse than death.

They deserved their fate. As for those behind them, the future is uncertain. A fox will always show its tail. Lan Qingqing will not let those who harmed her family live freely.

After the children had rested for a few days, Lan Qingqing decided to take them home. The children were very well-behaved and quiet along the way, which made Lan Qingqing feel sorry for them. Usually, these children were always chattering away, like curious little children, always asking questions. It was clear they had been quite frightened.

Along the way, Lan slowed down her pace on the return journey, taking the children back leisurely in the carriage. When they saw some scenic spots, Lan Qingqing would also take the children out to explore.

Lan Qingqing had already sent a servant back to report the news, so she wasn't in a hurry to go back. It would be good to take the children on a trip.

During this time, Lan Qingqing was also wondering who the people in Kyoto were, and who wanted to harm her child.

If these people had a grudge against her, why would they only take her child? This puzzled Lan Qingqing greatly.

One day, Lan Qingqing was leading the children through a canyon when they were captivated by the scenery. So, she decided to take the children off the carriage to explore and admire the beautiful sea of ​​flowers.

As soon as the children entered the sea of ​​flowers, they ran around happily like wild horses. They laughed and shouted, fully enjoying the beauty of nature. Lan Qingqing stood to the side, smiling as she watched everything before her. She felt that her life, like this sea of ​​flowers, was full of vitality and energy.

Amidst the sea of ​​flowers, the children saw many beautiful butterflies. They fluttered about, the patterns on their wings shimmering with colorful light. The children chased after the butterflies, their laughter echoing throughout the canyon.

Lan Qingqing could feel the children's happiness; they were no longer as listless as before. As long as the children were happy, that was all that mattered. Lan Qingqing slowed her pace along the way so the children could forget that unpleasant experience, otherwise, it wouldn't be good if that memory left a shadow in their hearts.

Next, Lan Qingqing took the children to see the waterfall in the canyon. The water cascaded down, splashing up sparkling droplets. The children were awestruck by the magnificent sight, constantly exclaiming in amazement. Lan Qingqing also marveled at how breathtaking the scenery was.

Feng Caidie's expression was the same as the children's; she too was awestruck by the scenery.

Time flew by, and before nightfall, Lan Qingqing led the children away from the canyon. She had observed the area beforehand and knew there was an inn nearby. Although the place was rather desolate, its beautiful scenery attracted many scholars and poets. A shrewd merchant had opened an inn there.

Soon Lan Qingqing arrived at the inn and asked for a superior room.

The innkeeper was all smiles when he saw the guests arrive, but he was also shocked when he saw four children who looked exactly alike.

The innkeeper was secretly delighted. Judging from their attire, they were definitely not from ordinary families. He assumed that with so many people coming, he would make a fortune. However, upon hearing that they only wanted one superior room, he immediately felt contempt for them in his heart. But the innkeeper only felt contempt in his heart; on the surface, he still smiled broadly. After all, they were guests.

Lan Qingqing was unaware of the shopkeeper's inner thoughts, and even if she did, she wouldn't care. The children were still so young, and Lan Qingqing couldn't bear to let them sleep alone; she only felt at ease with them beside her. The little ones always slept next to Lan Qingqing at night, a sign that she knew indicated their insecurity.

Lan Qingqing called over the waiter, ordered some food and asked them to bring it upstairs, and also asked the inn to prepare some hot water for bathing.

Hot water for showering costs extra, and the person who installed the cabinet was naturally delighted to have someone prepare the hot water.

The food Lan Qingqing ordered wasn't cheap either, which made the shopkeeper happy again. Seeing how stingy the group was, the shopkeeper thought they were just poor people, but he didn't expect them to be big customers.

After dinner, Lan Qingqing helped the little ones wash up. Lan Qingqi said a little shyly, "Mommy, I can wash myself." Seeing Lan Qingqi's slightly red face, Lan Qingqing found it amusing. Such a young child already knew how to be shy! Lan Qingqing smiled and said, "Alright!"

After Lan Qingqing finished speaking, Lan Qingqi took his clothes and went into the inner room to take a bath. The four little ones also said in a similar manner: they wanted to bathe themselves too, and Lan Qingqing chuckled and agreed to it. After the little ones finished bathing, the servant came to change the bathwater. Then Lan Qingqing let Feng Caidie go first to bathe, and finally Lan Qingqing and Sanbao went in to bathe together.

After taking a bath, Lan Qingqing felt much more relaxed. After washing up, she put the little ones to bed.

Fortunately, the beds in the superior rooms were quite large. Lan Qingqing and the children slept sideways on the bed. After all, there were seven people in total, including the six children and Lan Qingqing, and sleeping sideways was the only way to make do. Feng Caidie slept on the daybed in the outer room. The children fell asleep quickly after lying down on the bed. Perhaps they were too tired from playing during the day, and they were sleeping very soundly.

The next day at daybreak, Lan Qingqing bought some dry food for the road. When she saw that the young men had woken up, she asked the innkeeper to bring some breakfast. Just as Lan Qingqing finished breakfast and was about to leave, a woman who was about to give birth arrived at the inn.
