Quick travel: after being possessed by the monster system

After the news came that Xie Yuan had passed the imperial examination, Lin Qing was counting the days.

In the plot, the news that Xie Mu was alive came more than two months after Xie Yuan passed the imperial examination.

It's been two and a half months now, and she expected it would be in the next few days.

Now Xie's mother is not dead, Xie's father is still in good health, and the two children have been taught well. In order to prevent the ending of the plot, Xie Mu must not be allowed to take away the two children.

It was unreasonable to not allow the child's biological father to take away his own flesh and blood.

But now that Xie Mu's parents are still alive, Xie Mu's mother's experience at a young age made her feel uneasy about handing over her child to Xie Mu's stepwife.

The right time, the right place, and everyone took advantage of it.

Sure enough, within two days Xie Yuan received a letter from the border. It was written by the gentleman Xie Mu asked to write the letter.

After asking colleagues from another town not far from Qinghe Town, the letter was finally delivered to Xie's family after many twists and turns.

When Xie Yuan received the letter, he heard that it was sent back by relatives at the border.

Suddenly there were thousands of thoughts in his mind, and he only had one thought, "Brother is not dead!"

I rushed to the house to find my father and my mother anxiously, my hands holding the envelope were trembling.

"Yuan'er, why do you look so panicked?" Xie's father stopped doing handicrafts.

When Father Xie was ten years old, he learned carpentry from an old carpenter from the same village for several years, and his skills were barely enough to make some small things.

In my spare time, I make some small tables, chairs and benches to entertain myself.

Since the twins were born, they have been thinking about carving simple things out of wood, such as bunny rabbits and wooden horses.

The workmanship is not exquisite, but the edges and corners are polished smooth, so you are afraid of accidentally pricking your child.

Xie Yuan saw the carpenter's knife in Father Xie's hand and asked Father Xie to put it aside first, fearing that he might accidentally hurt himself when he got excited.

Then he said, "There is a letter written back from the border, saying that it was sent back by relatives over there."

I watched my parents stand up in shock and couldn't believe it.

Mother Xie said tremblingly, "Border pass?"

Father Xie was more sensible, "Where's the letter?"

"Here it is, I haven't opened it yet." Xie Yuan took out the letter in his hand.

"Read it quickly and see if it's your eldest brother." Xie's mother was so anxious that if she hadn't been illiterate, she would have grabbed it and read it herself.

Xie Yuan opened the letter and read it quickly.

"How to say it." Father Xie kept squeezing his hands, waiting for Xie Yuan to speak.

Xie Yuan nodded towards the two of them, "It's the eldest brother. The eldest brother is still alive."

Thank you father and mother for crying with joy.

It took a while to calm down the excitement.

"It's good to be alive, it's good to be alive." Xie's mother secretly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"The eldest brother also said that he has made meritorious service on the battlefield and has been promoted to the eighth rank captain." Xie Yuan continued.

The two elders of the Xie family did not pay attention to whether they had served as officials or not. The most important thing was that their son was still alive.

His face was filled with joy of regaining his lost possessions.

"Did your elder brother say when he would be back?" Mother Xie asked a question that concerned her.

"Brother said in the letter that he will be back in about a month." He paused for a moment, not knowing what to say next.

Father Xie saw his son pause and asked in confusion

"But what's wrong with your elder brother?"

As long as his son is alive, he can accept it even if he is missing an arm or a leg.

"No, it's..." Xie Yuan hesitated.

"I mean I want to bring my new sister-in-law back with me." After thinking about it, I still didn't hide it.

"Your new sister-in-law?" It had been less than a year since the death of the eldest daughter-in-law, and the eldest son had married a new wife in the border area. Mother Xie had mixed feelings in her heart.

"I heard that after your eldest brother died in the war, we had no further correspondence with him. How did your eldest brother know about Xiaoxin's death?" Father Xie was afraid that his eldest son would be confused and imitate Lin Hai.

"My eldest brother was on the battlefield and infiltrated into the enemy's interior. He was thought to have died in the battle by his fellow villagers, and the news was wrongly conveyed back."

"The eldest brother later cooperated with me inside and outside, made great achievements, and became the captain."

"I asked someone who returned home to inquire about the news at home. After that person returned, he told my elder brother about the death of my sister-in-law."

Xie Yuan caught what Xie Mu said in the letter.

There was another fierce battle at that time, and it was inconvenient for Xie Mu to ask someone to bring the letter back, so he went to the battlefield again.

He bravely killed the enemy on the battlefield and was remembered in his heart when he went to the top.

So after the battle was over, he invited Xie Mu to his home and learned that Xie Mu's wife had passed away at the wine table.

He wanted to betroth his youngest daughter Han Luoyu to Xie Mu.

Xie Mu did not refuse, and the marriage was settled.

When she came back with the letter, the two had not yet gotten married. After they got married, Xie Mu took her back to see her parents.

After thanking my father and thanking my mother for hearing the letter, I didn’t know what to say for a while.After the eldest daughter-in-law passes away, it is normal for the son to remarry.

But the marriage is so fast, what will happen to the two children in the future? As they get older, they have to think more about Diandian and Xiaoxiao.

Knowing that Xie's father and Xie's mother were in a state of confusion right now, Xie Yuan put down the letter and walked out quietly.

When they arrived at the courtyard, they saw Lin Qing coming back from outside with two children.

"My aunt took us to pick vegetables. She said we were experiencing life." Diandian held up the vegetable basket to show off her achievements to Xie Yuan.

Xie Yuan touched the heads of the two children and said, "How about you help my uncle go to the kitchen to choose all these dishes?"

"Okay." Xiaoxiao didn't hesitate at all, and he and his sister went to the kitchen each holding a small basket.

When the two figures could no longer be seen clearly, "Why did you push them away? What's wrong?"

Normally, Xie Yuan would not let them work alone. When he wanted to exercise his children's hands-on skills, he would always accompany them.

Xie Yuan told Lin Qing about the letter he received and its contents.

The children are still so young, and I don’t know if they can accept it if they know that they have an extra stepmother.

He told Lin Qing his worries.

"As the saying goes, caring leads to chaos. You teach your children well and they are very sensible."

"They are not children who don't understand anything. They will definitely be happy that their biological father is still alive."

"As for the stepmother, if someone takes the place of one's biological mother, everyone will feel sad at first."

Lin Qing told Xie Yuan what she was thinking.

"Qingqing, I..." Xie Yuan was about to say that people's hearts are fickle, and they must take good care of themselves.

A sob was heard.

The two turned their heads and saw Xiaoxiao squatting on the ground crying.

"Zi Yu!"

"Little!"

It seemed like their conversation was overheard.

Lin Qing ran over, knelt down and held Xiaoxiao in his arms.

"Did you hear what I said to your uncle?" Lin Qing gently held her little hand.

Xiao Xiao hummed, suppressing the sadness in his heart, and then raised his head.

"Uncle, aunt, dad is fine, I'm very happy."

Lin Qing sighed as she looked at Xiaoxiao, who was smart enough to hide her sadness at a young age.

"Xiao Xiao, I know you are happy that your father is fine. But I also know that you are sad that your father found a stepmother for you, right?" Lin Qing clarified what Xiao Xiao was thinking.

After all, Xiaoxiao was still a child and couldn't control so many emotions, so she cried silently again.

"Auntie, I miss my grandma." Xiaoxiao said in a muffled voice.
