Chapter 247 Uncle, I am Yun Duo
Yun Duo looked at the excited brother and sister and was moved. Now they were still standing at the gate, so Yun Duo decided to remind her uncle and her mother to control their emotions.
Yun Duo showed a gentle and kind smile on her face and said to her uncle, "Uncle, I'm still at the door. Won't you let me in?" She spoke in a relaxed tone to ease the tense atmosphere.
After hearing Yun Duo's words, Li Jinhuai came back to his senses and realized that he had lost his composure.
He looked at the girl in front of him who looked very similar to his sister when she was young, and he understood. The letter that Cheng Yuheng gave him introduced everyone in the Yun family in detail.
"This should be the sister's daughter mentioned in the letter," Li Jinhuai thought to himself.
His eyes fell on the frail scholar next to his sister. He thought, "This frail scholar should be her husband, right? He looks okay, but isn't he a little too frail?"
Li Jinhuai is the eldest brother-in-law. He is getting more and more dissatisfied with his brother-in-law. He feels like his own cabbage is being eaten by a pig. In his heart, no one can be worthy of his gentle, beautiful, well-educated and sensible sister.
But in fact, Yun Qingsong was not as frail as Li Jinhuai thought. Yun Qingsong was the type with handsome looks, tall stature, and elegant temperament, and he was not at all weak and frail.
Behind them, there were two teenagers and a little boy. One of the teenagers was sunny and handsome, the other was gentle and kind, and the little boy had a pair of big eyes like his sister, looking very cute. Li Jin thought, these should be his sister's three sons.
He smiled awkwardly, "This is Duo'er, she looks just like your mother when she was young. You see, I forgot to invite everyone into the house. It's my uncle's fault."
"Uncle, I'm Yun Duo."
"Okay, good boy!"
Li Jinhuai bowed deeply in the direction of Yunhai again: "I guess this must be Uncle Yun. Jinhuai would like to thank Uncle for saving my sister's life."
When Yunhai heard this, he quickly reached out his hand to help him up, a amiable smile on his face, and said hastily: "Oh, nephew Jinhuai, please get up quickly! No need to be so polite! If you are talking about the life-saving grace, Xiuxiu was saved by my silly son, but Xiuxiu has now pledged her life to me, so our two families are now one family! Hahahahaha..."
Yunhai's humorous and interesting words were like a breeze, gently blowing away the solemn atmosphere when the brother and sister first met. He also wanted to use this method to make his son, who could only stand there blankly, have a good impression in front of his elder brother-in-law.
The old couple of the Cheng family also laughed along with Yunhai's words.
Hearing the laughter, Li Xiuxiu introduced a little embarrassedly: "Brother, this is my husband. He was the one who saved me back then."
Yun Qingsong bowed lightly and said, "Buyu, I'm honored to meet you, uncle."
Buyu is the name Cheng Zhiyuan gave Yun Qingsong. "Song" symbolizes tenacity, perseverance, unchanging and eternity. Originally, Yongheng was more suitable than Buyu, but Heng and Heng have the same pronunciation, so Buyu was chosen.
Li Jinhuai stared at Yun Qingsong without saying anything. Yun Duo didn't want to embarrass her father, so she winked at her brothers and sisters behind her.
The three brothers understood immediately and said at the same time: "Nephew meets uncle, uncle is well!"
"Good... they are all good children. My sister is so lucky!"
Yun Qingsong touched his nose awkwardly, and since no one was paying attention to him, he just got up.
"Master Cheng, Uncle Cheng, Auntie, Uncle Yun, Second Uncle Yun, Second Aunt, please come in. The rooms are ready for you. Rest here tonight and continue your journey tomorrow. Brothers and children, please come in."
Then he ordered his men to move all their vehicles to the backyard and settle them. Yun Qingshan and his brothers followed Wu Dazhu's family to settle there.
Li Jinhuai invited everyone into the Duwei Mansion and asked the servants in the mansion to take them to their rooms to wash up and rest, and prepared a welcoming banquet for them in the evening.
In the banquet hall of the Duwei Mansion, Cheng Yuheng sat in the main seat.
Li Jinhuai knelt on his knees and prepared to pay his respects to Cheng Yuheng.
"Commander Li, please stand up quickly. We are all family, so there is no need to perform such a grand ceremony."
Li Jinhuai was surprised that the Crown Prince was actually talking about a family. He couldn't understand what the Crown Prince meant.
Although His Royal Highness was polite, he could not act recklessly. He still had to follow the etiquette: "Etiquette cannot be abolished. Please accept my courtesy, Your Highness."
Cheng Yuheng came over and helped Li Jinhuai up. "Uncle, are you excused?"
He was a little confused by the word "uncle". He looked at Cheng Yuheng suspiciously. He was a military commander who didn't like beating around the bush, so he went straight to the point: "Your Highness, please help me solve this doubt."
"Uncle, you don't know, Duo'er is my fiancée, so you are naturally my uncle."
"Hahaha...I see. My niece is a lucky one."
The Li family and the Cheng family are old friends, so the Yu family has been at odds with each other for so many years. When Li Jinhuai received news from his sister and knew that the prince was still alive, he decided to join the prince. This niece is the future princess, which further strengthens the Li family's determination to be loyal to the prince.
"Uncle, the situation in Yanqi City should proceed as planned. Before the envoy returns, it is better for Jun Mingyao to stay in Yanqi City first."
"Don't worry, Your Highness. Everything has been arranged over there. Yanqi City is now like being trapped in an iron net. By the time he reacts, it may be too late."
The courtyard of the Duwei Mansion was very large, and the servants arranged guest rooms for everyone according to Li Jinhuai's prior instructions.
Without Cheng Yuheng around, the children all gathered around Yun Duo.
"Sister Duoer, that leader in armor is really your uncle! So majestic! I wish I had an uncle who was a general." Yun Yi said enviously.
Someone praised his uncle Yun Chenxing and said proudly: "Brother Yi, my uncle is the commander here, the highest official here."
"Brother Xiaosi, your uncle is such a high-ranking official, he's really powerful. He just said that he would host a welcoming banquet for us, and there must be a lot of delicious food!" Yun Xi wiped his saliva after saying this.
"Look at how useless you are! You're drooling because of greed, how embarrassing." Yun Ruer wiped Yun Xi's saliva with a look of disgust.
Yun Duo was in a very good mood when she saw her happy brothers and sisters. She was very satisfied to have so many relatives here.
"Your rooms have been arranged. Hurry up and wash up. If you don't go soon, your cousins will spank you."
Li Jinhuai reported all the arrangements to Cheng Yuheng in detail.
Li Jinhuai saw that the time was almost up and said, "Your Highness, you have worked hard on the journey. I will ask someone to take you to take a hot bath to relieve your fatigue!" Cheng Yuheng nodded slightly, expressing his satisfaction. He turned around and left with the servants.
Li Jinhuai took advantage of this opportunity to leave the room and head towards the courtyard arranged for his sister's family.
Along the way, he was filled with mixed feelings. He recalled the time he spent with his sister when he was a child, and those warm memories made him feel nostalgic and emotional.
Now, his sister has become a wife and a mother with her own family. He can't help but sigh, "Time flies so fast" and eighteen years have passed in a flash.
