My whole family time-traveled! I became a god during my exile in a famine.
Chapter 301: Watching with cold eyes
Chapter 301: Watching with cold eyes
The eldest daughter-in-law and her family members surrounded her, crying.
The old lady suddenly hugged her second grandson's head and cried sadly, "What are you doing here, child? You must have suffered a lot these days. You've become so dark and thin."
Xin Nian stared expressionlessly at the scene of the eldest son's family embracing and weeping.
While others were weeping and celebrating family reunions, she stood by like a cold, jade-carved moon, observing with detached indifference, showing no emotion whatsoever.
Xin Wenyuan had already sensed that his little darling was in a bad mood, so he leaned closer and quietly asked, "What's wrong?"
Xiao Jinzhi hurriedly whispered a complaint, "Uncle, this guy is an absolute scumbag. He's really angered Niannian. Don't say anything for a while, and see how he cleans up the mess himself."
Xin Wenyuan: ...
If Fatty has labeled him as the ultimate scumbag, then this second son of the first wife must be no good.
Madam Nie rushed forward, hugged her son, and cried and hit him, saying, "You child, why didn't you send a message home?"
"Mother, I didn't mean to," Xin Haoming explained awkwardly. "After I got separated from Father and the others on the battlefield, I was injured in the head and only recently started to regain some of my memory."
Mrs. Nie immediately became very nervous, looking up at her son's head, "Is he alright now? Are there any other hidden symptoms?"
"It's alright, I'm almost fully recovered." Xin Haoming smiled at his mother.
Mei Zhuqing was squeezed out of the crowd, holding her little daughter Xin Man'er's hand in one hand, looking at her husband with a smile in her eyes.
At that moment, she was unaware that a massive storm was about to sweep in.
Her heart was filled with the joy of her husband's return home, and she gazed at him tenderly, her hand unconsciously resting on her high, protruding belly.
That's great, his dad is back safe and sound.
Xiao Liu said she was fine and that the baby would be born in about ten days to meet the couple.
This child is blessed.
Lin Xiuyi helped the old lady push forward a little, "Second brother, you just said that you and father-in-law were separated on the battlefield, so where are they now?"
"Oh yes, yes. Erlang, what about your grandfather, father, and elder brother? Are they all well now?" Madam Yu hurriedly asked.
Xin Haoming glanced apologetically at Madam Yu, "I'm sorry, Grandmother. After I separated from Father and my eldest brother, I've been suffering from amnesia. I only started to recover some of my memories ten days ago, and I still can't remember many things."
Yu swayed slightly, and Xin Ruoyu quickly stepped forward to support her grandmother, softly comforting her, "Grandmother, don't worry. Since Second Brother is alright, then Grandfather, Uncle, and Eldest Brother must be fine too."
"Right, Second Brother? They were doing well before you separated, weren't they?"
“Yes, yes.” Xin Haoming smiled bitterly. “I only remember that there was some trouble in our camp at the time. A spy infiltrated our rear and burned down the granary.”
"Father and elder brother chased after that spy from Yanbei. At that time, the sky was ablaze, and we were attacked by the enemy."
"I remember that my grandfather and the others were all doing well before we separated."
"Oh, Grandmother, Mother, what brings you here?" This is the desolate, uninhabited northern wilderness, the northernmost and most barren place in the Great Xia Dynasty.
How did these women manage to travel such a long distance to get here?
"Alas, this is a long story. Ever since you and your father disappeared on the battlefield, rumors have spread to Shengjing that you have defected to the Northern Yan."
"What?!" Xin Haoming exclaimed angrily. "How is this possible?"
Lin Xiuyi's face was full of sorrow. "The rumors also say that you went to Northern Yan to enjoy a life of luxury and were treated as honored guests. They also say that my father-in-law became the consort of the Northern Yan princess, completely betraying Great Xia, and that he will never come back in this lifetime."
"Absurd!" Xin Haoming roared in anger. "You all believe such a ridiculous rumor?" "Of course we don't believe it, but His Majesty the Emperor does," Xin Ruoyu replied calmly. "When the emperor commands death, the subject has no choice but to die. What can we do if the emperor wants to exile our whole family to the Northern Wilderness?"
"You were exiled to the Northern Wilderness??" Xin Haoming couldn't hide his astonishment.
How could this be? The women of the capital are so delicate, how could they possibly travel all the way from Shengjing to the icy wasteland of the north? Wouldn't that have taken three to five months of arduous travel?
But now, looking at my grandmother and mother, they seem to be in pretty good spirits.
He doesn't look like someone who has traveled a long way and endured many hardships.
"Thankfully, all of that is in the past." Madam Nie patted her son's hand with a smile. "Son, where have you been staying all this time?"
Xin Haoming was speechless for a moment when asked the question, unsure of how to answer.
Xin Nian sneered coldly from the side, and Xin Haoming immediately felt guilty.
He didn't know how to explain it to his grandmother and the others...
But what's meant to happen will happen eventually.
Meng Lanyin squeezed into the crowd, her face beaming with joy. "Brother Haoming, are all these your family members? That's wonderful! I knew you would be reunited with your family."
Nie was taken aback. He glanced at the pretty and delicate girl in front of him dressed in foreign attire, and a sense of foreboding swept over him.
"My son, who is this young lady?"
“Mother, this is the girl who saved my life more than half a year ago. Her name is Meng Lanyin, you can just call her Yinyin.”
"Oh, Yinyin." Madam Nie smiled awkwardly, "So it was Miss Meng who saved my son. I am extremely grateful."
"Auntie, please don't say that. This is what I should do." Meng Lanyin nestled against Xin Haoming's side and smiled sweetly at everyone.
The women of the Xin family looked at each other in bewilderment.
The third wife, Zhuang, subconsciously nudged her husband Xin Wen'an's arm. The latter looked down and glared at her, signaling her not to speak carelessly.
Nie was quite embarrassed by Meng Lanyin's bold and unrestrained behavior.
She glanced back at her second daughter-in-law, Mei Zhuqing, and saw her standing motionless on the outer circle. Her heart tightened.
My second daughter-in-law's due date is approaching; I hope she doesn't cause any trouble at this crucial moment.
Madam Yu was also quite surprised. She glanced at her second grandson, whose expression was strange, but still gave him some face. "Haoming, come back with your grandmother first."
Meng Lanyin refused to listen and looked up at Xin Haoming as he forcefully pulled off his arm.
Seeing so many people on the field, Xin Haoming felt embarrassed to speak carelessly. He lowered his head and comforted Meng Lanyin, "Yinyin, let's go back with Grandma first."
Meng Lanyin immediately pouted and threw a tantrum, shoving Xin Haoming's arm away. "You promised me you'd get a divorce as soon as you came back, and you had to make it clear to everyone that I'm the one you love the most."
Xie Ninglan finished her work and came over with Chang Mianmian to watch the excitement. Before they even got close, they heard these words.
What love stuff? Seriously, people in ancient times are so bold in publicly expressing their love these days?
Chang Mianmian also widened her eyes, looking like she was enjoying the excitement, and pulled her aunt to squeeze to the front of the crowd.
I can't take it anymore, I can't sleep well after eating half of this melon.
Madam Nie's expression changed. "Miss Meng, we are all very grateful to you for saving Haoming. You are my son's savior, and I will definitely repay you on behalf of the family when I have the chance."
"But Haoming has a wife and daughter. Are you trying to become his mistress?"
Meng Lanyin stomped her feet in anger and urged Xin Haoming, "Brother Haoming, you need to explain things to them quickly."
