The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 1919

Chapter 1919: Chapter 953: The Grand Wedding

Gu Xiaobao couldn’t understand what a nephew or niece was, but when Gu Jiao explained "little uncle" to him, he finally got it. This he understood.

"Am I the little uncle?" he asked.

"Yes." Gu Jiao said.

He thought seriously for a while: "Alright."

He is a year older and no longer pats his chest with open fingers and waves his tiny hands like he used to.

To him, those are things that little babies do.

Gu Jiao was surprised by his change, kids indeed change every day.

Gu Yan and Gu Xiaoshun went to school, leaving only the Yao Family and a few little maidservants at home.

The Yao Family brought a plate of homemade snacks to the east room, knowing her daughter didn’t like things too sweet, so she only added a little sugar to the snacks.

"Busy from early morning, you must be hungry, have some food." The Yao Family handed the snacks to Gu Jiao.

Gu Jiao took a piece of almond cake, tasted it, it still had the familiar taste, delicious.

The Yao Family placed the plate of snacks on the stool and turned to look at the two little ones.

Today was hot, so Gu Jiao loosened their swaddles. Xiao Cong was still a quiet little handsome boy, while Xiao Yang curiously looked around and occasionally stretched lazily, extremely adorable.

Both kids were very healthy, Xiao Yang was a bit chubbier.

The Yao Family looked at them and couldn’t help but think of Gu Yan and Gu Jiao from the past; missing the chance to watch her own daughter grow up was a lifelong regret.

The pain of missing out on those precious moments wasn’t something that could be compensated for just by reuniting later. In her heart, there was a void that could never be filled.

However, the appearance of Xiao Cong and Xiao Yang gradually began to fill that void.

She loved the two kids so much and was deeply grateful to them.

"Mom, the nephew and niece are so small." Gu Xiaobao voiced his opinion once again.

"You were just as small when you were little." The Yao Family said, suddenly looking at him in surprise, "You know what nephew and niece are?"

"Sister said it." Gu Xiaobao said, "I’m the little uncle."

The Yao Family smiled and patted his little head: "Xiaobao is really smart."

The little uncle had the heart to be a good elder, but the forty-day-old nephew and niece only ate and slept, and couldn’t play with him.

After sitting on the bed for a while, feeling bored, he went out to find his little friends in the alley.

Gu Lord Marquis arrived at the door simultaneously with Xiao Hen, who had just finished work. Coincidentally, so had he.

Both were still wearing their official robes.

In Zhan Country, only officials of the third rank and above were qualified to wear purple. Gu Lord Marquis was a fourth-ranked Ministry of Works deputy minister, his official robe was crimson.

He looked at Xiao Hen, younger, lower in status, but already donning the purple robe, and felt suddenly uncomfortable.

A father-in-law looking at his son-in-law, getting more irritated.

He truly hadn’t expected that the poor boy he always looked down on was actually the lost young Marquis of Zhaodu!

No wonder he managed to top the imperial examinations.

No matter how much he disapproved of this kid, he had to admit that the young Marquis of Zhaodu’s scholarship was genuine.

Oh well, being the father-in-law to a young marquis wasn’t bad either.

With thoughts flashing by, he cleared his throat, striking the pose of a father-in-law, and said, "You’re here, and you wouldn’t even greet your father-in-law?"

Xiao Hen dusted his wide sleeves and said with a carefree attitude, "I married the daughter of Yan Country’s Duke Residence, it’s Duke An who is my father-in-law."

Gu Lord Marquis was left embarrassed, twitched his mouth, and stormed inside angrily!

Stupid girl, what kind of husband did you find? No manners at all!

Seeing that girl later, he must give her a good talking to!

He strode over the threshold, tripped on his foot, and with a cry, fell flat on his face!

Gu Jiao, who had just come out of the east room, looked at him bewildered, for a long while, raised an eyebrow, and said: "Oh, rise."

Gu Lord Marquis: "???"

...

Gu Lord Marquis, with a bruised and battered face, went to the Yao Family to complain. Just as he entered the room, he couldn’t help but notice the twin babies lying side by side on the bedchamber.

He paused in his steps.

Twins are quite rare, and boy-girl twins are even rarer. The last time he saw such a small pair of boy-girl twins was when Gu Yan and Gu Jinyu were young.

He still remembered how they lay in the swaddles back then; the difference was that Gu Yan, suffering from a heart condition, didn’t want to lie with Gu Jinyu, often leading to him crying and causing a scene, an unpleasant sight.

The two little ones now clearly lay separately, yet there was a sense of connection through their shared bloodline.

A thought crossed Gu Lord Marquis’s mind: so this is what true boy-girl twins are like.
