Nan Xiao knocked on the door and explained his purpose.
After Tang Wan listened, she smiled and said, "We were just discussing this matter when you arrived."
Ling Xiao Ling chuckled, "Our conclusion is that I'll take the second and fifth child back, and your in-laws will stay. When Xiao Yun and Jin Song arrive, we'll say they're not returning, and entrust them to you and Xi'er."
Nan Xiao smiled at Ling Xiao Ling, "Aunt Ling, we are family, so it's only natural we look out for each other. Also, thank you for bringing everyone over. Without your help this time, my own people couldn't have rounded up Hong Feng's men so quickly."
Ling Xiao Ling smiled helplessly, "You just said we were family, and now you're being polite to me! It's fine to be polite to me, but don't be so formal with your sister. She and her husband don't treat you and Xi'er as outsiders at all. Even I, as a mother, feel a bit jealous."
Tang Wan smiled at Nan Xiao, "It's not just the old lady who's jealous; even Zi Xin said her mother is playing favorites. Although your cousin Yun and her husband have forgotten a lot of their past, they clearly treat Yu Xi better than they treat their mother and Zi Xin."
Nan Xiao's lips curved slightly, "To be precise, my sister and brother-in-law rely on Xi Bao because they were both saved by Xi Bao."
Ling Xiao Ling smiled, "No need to explain for them, we all understand. They have no memories and lack a sense of security, only you and Xi'er can provide them with enough. Besides, they also want to return to their former living places and try to regain their memories."
"I see that after they returned to China, cousin Yun and her husband became much closer than before."
"That's all thanks to you and Xi'er for sending them so many old photos, which made Xiao Yun completely believe that she and Jin Song truly have feelings for each other."
"It's what I should do, we are all family." Nan Xiao paused, then continued, "Aunt Ling, there's nothing else here. When you go back this time, please take my father with you."
"The Nan family has unearthed quite a few worms this time. Your father is worried that you and Xi'er won't be able to handle them, and wants to wait until things are more stable here before leaving."
"No need. I can do it. If I can't even manage these ragtag bunch, then I'm not worthy of being the family head."
"It's better to be careful. Your actions this time were too significant, especially towards your third granduncle's family. They have very little of their businesses left after you dealt with them. He's not someone easy to contend with."
Nan Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly, "I didn't know until I investigated, but he had so many business dealings with Hong Feng. This time, I only destroyed the businesses related to Hong Feng. If he doesn't behave himself, I'll make sure he can't even afford to eat!"
Ling Xiao Ling sighed softly and said no more. The Nan family's internal affairs were not something for an outsider like her to dwell on.
Seeing this, Tang Wan quickly changed the subject, "Xiao'er, how do you plan to handle the graves of your cousin Yun and her husband?"
"We are going through the procedures. Once their identities are restored, the graves can be demolished."
"That day, your cousin Yun and her husband joked about visiting the graves and taking a photo in front of their tombstone after they returned."
Nan Xiao smiled, "If they have that idea, I'll take them up the mountain tomorrow to have a look."
Tang Wan smiled, "I'll go ask them later... Xiao'er, you're out, what is Xi'er doing?"
"She's taking a bath."
"She just woke up, can she bathe by herself?"
"I was also afraid she couldn't, and wanted to help her. But I was kicked out as soon as I went in."
Tang Wan suppressed a laugh and waved at him, "You better go back. Even if you don't need to help, it's good to guard her outside."
"Alright, I'll go up and guard her then." Nan Xiao walked out quickly. As he exited, he bumped into Nan Zhenting, who was walking towards him.
"Why are you coming down alone? Yu Xi just woke up, she can't be without someone by her side. Hurry up and go back up!"
Nan Xiao's lips twitched. Was he unwilling to stay with her?
"I'm going up now. By the way, Dad, will you return to Norcas tomorrow? There's nothing much left here. If you stay too long, those people from the An family might target you again."
Nan Zhenting frowned slightly, "The mole hasn't been found yet, so I can't rest easy even if I leave."
"They'll be found out soon. Even if they aren't, it's fine. It's not like I can't do without them. I won't assign important tasks to them."
Nan Zhenting pondered for a moment, "You go keep Yu Xi company. We'll decide whether I leave or not tomorrow."
Nan Xiao looked at him deeply, "Dad, you and Aunt Ling have been apart for over forty years. Do you have another forty years? While you and Aunt Ling are still healthy, enjoy your time together. I can handle things here. Even if you don't have confidence in me, isn't there Yu Xi?"
Nan Zhenting frowned, turned, and went back to his bedroom.
Nan Xiao raised an eyebrow and quickly returned to the bedroom.
When Lan Yu Xi came out of the shower, dressed in clean loungewear, she saw Nan Xiao standing outside the door with his arms crossed.
Lan Yu Xi was slightly stunned, "You've been waiting here the whole time? You didn't go down?"
"I did. I handled the matters you entrusted me with. Now I'm fulfilling the tasks they assigned to me." Nan Xiao said as he bent down to pick her up.
Lan Yu Xi glanced at the three children who were covering their mouths and giggling, then reached out and tugged his ear, "Put me down."
Nan Xiao lowered his gaze to look at her, then quickly walked to the bed and gently placed her down, "You bathed right after waking up, are your legs not weak?"
"My body is fine!" Lan Yu Xi reached out and stroked Lan Han Yi's small head, "I'll be able to grow my hair back in a while."
Lan Han Yi pursed his lips and smiled, "Auntie, will I be as handsome as brother when I grow my hair?"
Lan Yu Xi smiled and kissed his small hand, "Absolutely! Our Lan family are all handsome men, and Han Yi is the most handsome among them!"
Mu Mu saw her mother kiss her younger brother and nudged her face forward.
Lan Yu Xi amusingly kissed her cheek, "Husband, have you noticed? Now that Mu Mu has lost weight, she's resembling you more and more."
Nan Xiao sat down behind her and smiled, "How could my daughter not resemble me? However, Mu Mu still resembles you in many ways. You are a great beauty, and she is a little beauty."
Mu Mu tilted her head and looked at Zhao Zhao, "Brother, Dad says I'm a little beauty~"
Zhao Zhao smiled and nodded, "You are a little beauty!"
Mu Mu blinked her big dark eyes narcissistically, "Brother, can you buy the little beauty pretty dresses?"
Zhao Zhao looked at her with a stern little face, "Didn't I just buy you one?"
Mu Mu pouted, "I've taken a liking to a new one. I told Shi Han sister that I want to buy an identical one for Mom to wear when she wakes up."
Zhao Zhao took the tablet and handed it to her, "Show me."
Nan Xiao leaned down and gently bit Lan Yu Xi's ear, "See how they resemble us when we were young?"
