Lian'er raised her hand, and Mo Liuyun helped her down from the carriage. He then turned and reached out to help Xiao Shi down from the carriage. After Xiao Shi got off the carriage, Xiao Jinhua and Mo Liujin were already waiting on the side.

Upon seeing the crowd, the servant at the gate immediately ran inside, shouting, "Young Miss, Young Miss, the young master has returned! Young Miss, Young Miss, the young master has returned!"

With tears welling in her eyes, Madam Xiao couldn't remember how many years it had been since she had brought her children home. Ever since Mo Liuyun became distant and even resistant towards them, and since Mo Liuyun's infatuation with Prince Qing, she hadn't brought them back. Her parents had always doted on her and Yun'er, and she was afraid they would ask about Yun'er and upset them.

Secondly, she was afraid that Yun'er's actions would implicate the Xiao family, and she was also afraid that the Xiao family would be used by the Prince of Qing because of Yun'er. Therefore, she rarely returned to her parents' home. Outsiders all thought that the Duke's Mansion disliked Mo Liuyun as a good-for-nothing and ugly woman, so they cut off all contact. In fact, it was not the case. It was her and her husband who did it on purpose!

Seeing the golden plaque of the Duke of Huguo's mansion again, she couldn't help but shed tears. Mo Liuyun helped Xiao Shi walk inside, and saw a group of people rushing towards the gate: "Old woman, be careful, Qin'er has already gone home, she won't run away, don't worry, don't worry!" Xiao Yi called out to Chu Shi.

"Get out of my way! My little darlings and babies are back!" Madam Chu shoved Xiao Yi aside. Mo Liuyun heard his maternal grandparents' voices, and Mo Liujin also stepped forward to help Madam Xiao. The three of them quickly walked forward, and Madam Xiao knelt on the ground, tears streaming down her face: "Father, Mother, your unfilial daughter has brought the children back to see you. We pay our respects to you!"

Mo Liuyun and Mo Liujin also knelt on the ground: "Greetings to maternal grandfather, maternal grandmother, maternal uncle, and maternal aunt!"

Seeing this, everyone rushed forward to help the mother and her two children up. Madam Chu hugged Madam Xiao tightly, crying, "My dearest child, you're finally back! How could you be so heartless? You haven't come back to see your father and me for years! If your father hadn't had this accident, were you still not planning to come home? Waaah..."

"Mother, I was wrong. I shouldn't have kept things from you. I will definitely come home to see you more often in the future." Xiao Shi also choked up as she explained why she hadn't come home. She then pulled Mo Liuyun aside and whispered to Chu Shi, "Mother, Yun'er is now cured of the poison and has finally been reborn. When the time is right, no one will point fingers at her anymore, and no one will criticize the Duke's Mansion anymore."

Mo Liuyun then realized that Xiao Shi's absence from home in recent years was largely due to her. Firstly, she had been instigated by Liu Siwan and her daughter, resulting in a very poor relationship with her parents, making it impossible for her to accompany them back to the Duke's Mansion in a loving and filial manner.

Secondly, because she was ugly and incompetent, and because she was obsessed with Nangong Chun, the General's Mansion was ridiculed everywhere. Xiao Shi did not want to implicate the Duke's Mansion, bring shame to her parents and brothers, and was also afraid that the Chu family would be taken advantage of because of her.

So my mother and father discussed it and decided it would be better to keep a distance on the surface, only sending gifts during holidays. Who would have thought that when all hope seemed lost, I would suddenly realize this?

Madam Xiao added, "Who would have thought that Yun'er had also learned medical skills and actually saved the lives of Father and Elder Brother! It still feels like a dream, and even now it still feels unreal!"

Upon hearing this, Madam Chu took Mo Liuyun's hand again: "We already know that Yun'er came to save the old man last time. Heaven truly has eyes." She then took Mo Liujin's hand: "My dear child, do you still remember your grandmother?"

Mo Liujin blushed and said, "Grandmother, Jin'er remembers Grandmother and Grandfather! Jin'er receives gifts from Grandfather's family every year on her birthday, and Jin'er loves them all!"

Xiao Yi couldn't get a word in edgewise. When he heard Mo Liujin say that he liked the birthday gift, he happily pulled Mo Liujin over and laughed, "I'm glad you like it. Those were all carefully selected by your maternal grandfather and uncles. Later, your maternal grandfather will take you to my private vault, where you can pick out all the good stuff!"

Mo Liuyun and Mo Liujin: "Thank you, Grandpa."

Seeing everyone standing at the second gate, chatting endlessly, Xiao Jinhua hurriedly stepped forward: "Grandfather and Grandmother, you must be tired from your journey. I'll take my aunt and cousin downstairs to settle in first, and we'll have lunch later after we've rested. You two should also go and rest first. Uncle should rest first, and after lunch, I'll ask my cousin to check on him to see if he's alright."

When Mo Liuyun met his maternal uncle, he had already asked Ling'er to examine him. His maternal uncle suffered from external injuries and poisoning. The poison had been cured, but although the external injuries were gradually healing, they had damaged his fundamental health, and it was unlikely that his martial arts skills would return to what they were before.

Therefore, Mo Liuyun planned to have his uncle drink the spiritual spring water to cleanse his meridians. Only in this way could he recover completely and even reach a higher level! For a general who had fought on the battlefield, the loss of all his martial arts skills was a devastating blow, needless to say.

Just last night, her space level was upgraded to level three, and she was taken back to the Xiao family early this morning. She hasn't had a chance to check the changes in her space yet!

Upon hearing Xiao Jinhua's words, Mo Liuyun stepped forward and approached Xiao Qi, saying, "Uncle, please extend your right hand so I can take your pulse first."

Xiao Qi hesitated for a moment. As a martial artist and a seasoned general, he knew that his martial arts skills were almost gone. However, he had always tried his best to hide them so as not to worry his parents. Now that his niece was taking his pulse in public, what if she revealed the truth? Wouldn't that ruin the joy of his parents and younger sister's reunion?

Mo Liuyun guessed what her uncle was thinking and smiled at Xiao Qi: "Uncle, are you looking down on me? I'm the one who healed my grandfather. Don't worry, I can heal your injuries, and I guarantee that I can still fight on the battlefield in the future, and I will never lose my former glory!"

Xiao Qi's eyes lit up with excitement upon hearing this: "I can go into battle and fight like before!"

Mo Liuyun nodded. Upon hearing this, Xiao Qi extended her right hand, and Mo Liuyun took her pulse. Just as Ling'er had said, he felt even more confident and withdrew his hand: "Uncle, don't worry, it's treatable. Just rest for a couple of days first, and I'll take care of you. Returning to your previous state won't be a problem!"

"Can it really be restored to the way it was before!?" Two voices, one male and one female, rang out simultaneously; it was Xiao Yi and Madam Chu!

Xiao Qi looked up abruptly, only then realizing that his parents had already discovered it. They were just pretending to be unaware, afraid that he would be heartbroken and they would worry about whether they could bear it.

Xiao Qi choked back tears and bowed to his parents, saying, "Father, Mother, your unfilial son has caused you both worry!"

Xiao Yi and Madam Chu stepped forward together. Xiao Yi helped Xiao Qi up, saying, "Even though you've grown up so much, I'm still your father. You wear this on your sleeve. Do you think I don't know? I'm not blind!"

Chu took Xiao Qi's hand and patted the back of Xiao Qi's hand: "Silly child, you are my own child. As the saying goes, no one knows a child better than their mother. Seeing you so dejected, your father and mother are very worried, but seeing you force a smile, your mother's heart aches even more."

"Qi'er, you must know that even if you become a cripple, you will still be your mother's child. Your brothers and nephews will only respect you more, because my son was wounded on the battlefield protecting our country, wounded to ensure the peaceful lives of the people. This is not a disgrace, but an honor! Those who look down on and mock my son do not deserve to be human!"

Xiao Jinhua nodded in agreement: "Uncle, no matter what, you will always be the pride of our Xiao family!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Qi straightened up: "Your son will heed Mother's teachings! How fortunate I am to have been born into the Xiao family, to have such parents and brothers! What more could I ask for!"

Mo Liuyun said to Xiao Qi, "Uncle, don't worry, leave everything to me!" Then she turned to her aunt, who was already in tears, and smiled, "Aunt, don't worry, Yun'er will definitely give you a lively and energetic uncle!"

Everyone chuckled upon hearing this; the child's words were truly baffling. Just as Xiao Jinhua was about to lead everyone back to their quarters, a servant rushed in from the doorway: "Lord Duke, Third Young Master, Prince Qing has arrived!"
