The Ancient Miss Transmigrates into a CEO’s Wife

Chapter 278

"Bro-bro, Momo hungry hungry."

Xu Yunmo sat on the carpet, looking expectantly at Xu Yunzheng. Xu Yunzheng was already five and a half years old, about to start first grade, but he was at a complete loss when it came to his one-and-a-half-year-old sister.

"Just hang in there a little longer."

Xu Yunmo shook her head.

"Can't hang on anymore."

Her voice was soft and milky, her eyes watery, her mouth pouting as she crawled to Xu Yunzheng's feet.

"But you can't go down the stairs."

Xu Yunzheng said. Mom had told him to stay upstairs and play with his sister, but he wanted to go downstairs too. Momo had just learned to walk and couldn't manage the stairs.

"Bro-bro carry."

Hearing this, Xu Yunzheng picked up Xu Yunmo, a small person carrying an even smaller one.

"Let's go downstairs."

Xu Yunzheng could carry Xu Yunmo on flat ground, but going down the stairs was still quite difficult.

So he carried Xu Yunmo to the top of the stairs and called out, "Mom, Momo wants to come down."

Shen Yin was cooking in the kitchen. Hearing this, she looked up towards the second floor.

"You and Momo wait a bit longer, I'll wash my hands and come up."

Just as Shen Yin finished washing her hands, the doorbell rang.

"Wait a little more, okay? Mom's going to answer the door."

Shen Yin went to open the door, and three little tots rushed in: Le An, Le Yu, and Xiao Li'er's son, Xing Yi.

"Auntie, where's Momo?" Le Yu looked at Shen Yin.

Le Yu, Le An, and Xing Yi were all older than Momo. Le Yu and Le An, the two children, had completely opposite personalities.

Le Yu was more talkative and optimistic, but Le An was different. Le An was very quiet, just like his name suggested. He didn't like to talk much since he was little. At first, Qi Ji even thought there might be something wrong with Le An and took him to see doctors. After a series of check-ups, nothing was found. He was perfectly healthy and even a bit smarter than average.

Xing Yi was only a month older than Momo. The four little tots weren't far apart in age and could play well together.

"Mommy, Mommy, Momo wants to come down," Xu Yunmo called loudly from the top of the stairs on the second floor.

"Coming, coming."

Xu Yunzheng felt a headache coming on. Why did he have to be so much older than them?

After Shen Yin brought Xu Yunmo down, Le Yu trotted over with her little steps.

"Momo!"

The two little girls hugged each other, with Le An and Xing Yi standing nearby.

Qi Ji and Xiao Li'er suddenly felt liberated. They rushed to the kitchen to help Shen Yin, while the children played by themselves in the living room.

Le Yu and Yunmo got along for about three minutes before it started.

"Yunzheng is my brother," Le Yu said.

"No no, Yunzheng is my bro-bro," Yunmo shook her head.

"An-An is your bro-bro," Yunmo pointed at Le An.

Le An was building blocks with Xing Yi, completely ignoring the two little girls.

"An-An is your brother too," Le Yu refused to give in.

"No no," Yunmo was confused, unsure for a moment if what Le Yu said was right or not.

"Momo, I'm the big sister," Le Yu pointed at herself.

"I'm the big sister!"

Suddenly, the living room became lively.

Seeing that she was about to lose the argument to Le Yu, Yunmo ran to Xing Yi's side and said, "Star-star, am I the big sister?"

Liu Xing Yi looked up, then nodded and said in his baby voice, "Big sister."

Having succeeded, Yunmo turned to Le An: "An-An bro-bro, am I the big sister?"

"I'm An-An's big brother," Le An replied.

"Yes, I'm Momo big sister," Xu Yunmo didn't care what An-An said.

Having sorted it out in her mind, Xu Yunmo ran back to Le Yu and said, "Star-star and An-An bro-bro say I'm the big sister."

It was all mixed up. Xu Yunzheng held his forehead. Why did Yunmo, the youngest, always want to be the big sister?

"Yunzheng, can you open the door? It's probably your godmother."

Xu Yunzheng got up and ran to the door to open it. Outside was another group of people.

"Godmother, Aunt Ningjing."

"Oh, godmother missed you so much!" Shu Yi pinched Xu Yunzheng's cheeks again.

"Xu Yunmo, your little brothers and sisters are here."

Hearing this, Xu Yunmo immediately trotted over with her little steps.

"Big sister is here."

"Ah, Momo has become even prettier!" Shu Yi stroked the little ponytail on top of Yunmo's head.

"Where are my little brothers and sisters?" Xu Yunmo looked at Xu Yunzheng with her big eyes.

"They're in the tummy, feel it."

Shu Yi took Xu Yunmo's little hand and placed it on her belly.

"Yin Yin, I have good news for you," Chang Ningjing rushed straight into the kitchen.

Shen Yin turned to face her.

"I can marry Tan Xiao now!"

Chang Ningjing's face was full of joy.

Hearing this, Shen Yin smiled too. Since she became pregnant with Yunmo, she had been reading books and studying. Combining the books she had read in the Dasheng Dynasty with her enhanced skills in this era, she finally found a prescription to remove the old cold energy in Chang Ningjing's body.

In the blink of an eye, Chang Ningjing had been taking the medicine for a year, and it was time to see results.

"Did you go to the hospital for a check-up?"

"Yes, I didn't have high hopes originally. Yesterday, when I went for a routine physical, I had it checked. The doctor said my gynecological condition was much better than before. They did a comprehensive examination and called it a miracle."

Chang Ningjing was so happy, not a trace of her usual strong, career woman demeanor remained.

"Qi Ji is here," Qi Ji said as he helped Shen Yin set the dishes, sneaking a bite.

"Oh right, we have Qi Ji right here with us," Shen Yin wiped her hands. As soon as she made this gesture, Chang Ningjing knew what Shen Yin was about to do. She obediently stretched out her hand.

Shen Yin's fingers moved slightly. A minute later, she said, "It's almost there. Keep taking the medicine for a few more days to consolidate the effect."

"Yin Yin, tell your sister, was your family in the medical profession in the past?" Chang Ningjing joked.

"My ancestors might have been military commanders."

Shu Yi's pregnancy was already showing. When she tried to enter the kitchen, she was shooed out by the others. So, in the living room, there were five children plus Shu Yi.

After hearing that there might be little brothers or sisters in Shu Yi's tummy, Xu Yunmo ignored everything else and kept close to Shu Yi, talking to her belly.

"I'm the big sister, my name is Xu Yunmo. Grow up quickly," Xu Yunmo patted Shu Yi's belly.

Shu Yi was still trying to figure out the situation.

"She was just asking An-An and Xing Yi to call her big sister earlier," Xu Yunzheng said. He never imagined that one day he would have so many younger brothers and sisters. If nothing unexpected happened, more people were likely to arrive soon.

Just as he was thinking this, there was another knock at the door.

Xu Yunzheng ran to open it again.

"Aunt."

"Yunzheng, are they all here?" Fang Ningning asked.

Xu Yunzheng nodded. See? He knew it. Who knew how many more little brothers and sisters were yet to come? Aunt Ningning had another one in her belly too.

At mealtime, more than a dozen adults gathered around the table. Yunzheng also sat at the table, while the four little ones didn't join the table for the meal.

"Daddy, hungry hungry."

Xu Yunmo, tired from playing, came to Xu Xiuhe's leg and tugged at it.

"Daddy, hungry hungry."

Xue Le Yu also came to Xue Jingrui's leg.

"Xing Yi, An An, are you hungry?"

The two boys didn't say anything, continuing to play with the blocks in their hands.

Le Yu and Yunmo only ate two bites of the dishes Shen Yin had specially prepared for them before wanting to get down again.

Tottering back to the carpet, they continued their argument.

Xu Yunzheng was used to it by now. It was still okay with just four of them. In the future, with two more... well, that would be very nice.

"Yunzheng, do you remember the wish you made when you were three? You wanted to have many younger brothers and sisters in the future."

Xu Yunzheng hadn't expected that everything he wished for back then would come true.

"Let's have Aunt Apple open a kindergarten and send them all there," Xu Yunzheng said.

"Hahaha, you just graduated from kindergarten yourself, and now you're thinking about sending your little brothers and sisters to kindergarten?"

Chang Ningjing heard this idea and actually thought it wasn't bad. She was considering investing. With six little ones soon, opening a kindergarten was completely feasible.

"Who's Aunt Apple?" Qi Ji asked. Yunzheng had always had peculiar logic since he was little, and once again, "apple" had entered his blind spot.

"It's his kindergarten teacher, Miss Apple. He introduced her to my brother, and now she's become Aunt Apple," Shen Yin explained.

"Yunzheng must have learned this from the boss," Liu Bo chimed in.

Everyone in the room burst into laughter.
