Chapter 1332: Final - Ending Six_3
The couple heaved a sigh of relief, feeling that the guilt they previously felt towards their twins had somewhat lessened.
At this time, the secretly relieved husband and wife did not know that the pet names they chose for their children really did suit their meanings. Originally, the dragon-phoenix twins, who had looked quite similar in childhood, had changed as they grew older. One eventually transformed into a beautiful and tall young maiden, who later became a well-known beauty in Jing City, causing matchmakers to literally break several thresholds at the Shen family’s house in their eagerness to arrange a marriage.
The other became stronger and sturdier yet possessed a gentle heart that severely contradicted his appearance, earning him no shortage of ridicule. In the end, the tender-hearted Shen Zhuangshi confessed his feelings to the girl he admired, only to be met with rejection. Heartbroken, he abandoned scholarly pursuits for a military career, secretly joined the army at the border, and within a mere five years, accumulated countless military achievements. He leapt into fame as a young general that all the unmarried maidens of Jing City clamored to marry.
In the following days, Mo Yan stayed at the Shen family’s home, wholeheartedly taking care of Liu Tinglan. She personally bandaged her wounds and bathed her every day, which touched Ting Lan so deeply she wanted to cry.
Perhaps due to the excellent care, the wound infection that Mo Yan feared never occurred. With the help of Spirit Spring Water and Spiritual Medicine, Ting Lan’s wound healed quickly. In less than ten days, the skin on the surface had healed, and she was able to walk a few steps. As long as she didn’t make large movements, she could basically take care of her daily needs.
However, while the wound recovered quickly, her sapped original energy could only be restored slowly. Fortunately, the Shen family was affluent and had Father Shen and Mother Shen taking care of things, so Ting Lan could rest easy and recuperate, without a worry in the world.
It was Father Liu and Mother Liu who, having accepted an invitation from the elderly couple of the Shen family, arrived at the Shen residence the day after their daughter gave birth. After learning the cause of their daughter’s premature delivery from the guilty recounting of Father Shen and Mother Shen, the usually good-tempered couple erupted with fury and immediately wanted to take their daughter back to the Liu Family home.
In the end, it was Mo Yan who mediated, and with much effort, she managed to calm down the parents’ anger. Finally, by bringing out the adorable dragon-phoenix twins, the Liu family couple agreed to stay at the Shen household and participated in the bathing ceremony for their grandchildren.
Since the twins were fragile and could not withstand the cold, the Shen family invited only a few close relatives and friends for the bathing ceremony. During the ceremony, without undressing the twins, the midwife simply dampened their cheeks with warm water and sang the bathing song amidst everyone’s blessings, marking the completion of the bathing ritual.
