Chapter 222 Lilac Rose
After washing up, Father Zhu and the others slowly returned to their rooms, their tired bodies gently closing the door. They each found a comfortable spot to sit and rest. After a while, Father Zhu felt refreshed and stood up. He said to Yu Bo, "Xiao Yu, wait here for Mother Zhu and the others to return. Xiao Wang and I will go to the East Courtyard to see how things are going with Team Leader Yang." With that, Father Zhu headed out the door, followed closely by Wang Xiangdong.
Soon, they arrived at the front hall. As they entered, they saw two adorable little girls, Dingxiang and Qiangwei, sitting obediently on the porch, their eyes fixed on the gate. They looked like two kittens waiting for their owner to return. Seeing this scene, Father Zhu and Wang Xiangdong couldn't help but smile at each other.
"Oh my, they're still little girls after all! At this age, they should be the most lively and active. It's really hard for them to sit so quietly now!" Dad Zhu smiled and shook his head, secretly admiring the children's good behavior and understanding. Then, he walked up to the two little girls, bent down and asked softly, "Lilac, Qiangwei, do you know where the second master is? Please show us the way." Hearing Dad Zhu's words, Lilac and Qiangwei quickly jumped down from their chairs.
Ding Xiang nodded slightly and said softly, "Master Zhu, oh... no, I should call you Doctor Zhu! Do we all have to go over there? Don't we need to leave someone here to serve?"
Father Zhu smiled and responded kindly, "Everyone can go together. They are resting now, so there is no need to wait on them. Let's go quickly and remember to close the gate."
Hearing this, Lilac and Rose happily agreed.
They had been sitting here for a while, feeling sleepy and almost falling asleep. Now they had the opportunity to go out for a walk, which was naturally the best thing.
After they emerged from the house, Dingxiang carefully closed the gate and led Father Zhu and his group toward the east wing. Along the way, they skipped ahead of the group like two cheerful little deer, acting as guides.
As they walked, Father Zhu suddenly asked, "Lilac, Qiangwei, are you the children of this mansion?"
Dingxiang quickly replied, "In response to Doctor Zhu, my daughter is a natural-born child," and nodded gently. Qiangwei, standing beside her, seemed a little shy, only smiling and nodding in response.
Seeing their reactions, Dingxiang continued, "We sisters both have the surname Yang. My parents are currently working in Yucheng. Qiangwei's father is busy traveling with the Second Master in the caravan, and her mother is the housekeeper in the Great Madam's courtyard. Qiangwei and I only just started living here this year to learn the various etiquette and manners."
Wang Xiangdong: "Both husband and wife are working in Yucheng, but is it Manager Yang and Mrs. Luo?"
Ding Xiang: "Uncle Wang, you know my parents."
Wang Xiangdong: "Yes, we lived in the Yucheng Warehouse for a while."
Ding Xiang: "How are my parents? I haven't seen them in years."
What a filial child.
Father Zhu: "Your parents are fine. They will be back with the caravan in a few days. You will be able to meet them."
"Really? That's great. I'm going to see my parents."
Dingxiang said this with light in her eyes.
Qiangwei, who had been silent the whole time, also said, "Then my father will be back soon. I miss him too."
Father Zhu: "Well, it's almost there. They're leaving only a day or two later than us. If everything goes well, they'll be here in three or four days at the latest."
The two little girls hugged each other and jumped for joy.
