Reborn to Become A Queen: The Real Heiress's Comeback-Chapter 269: A Family of Four is Really Nice!

Mu Yan looked at Zhan Lan and said, "I asked the wedding planner, the night before the big wedding we need to set the bridal bed, I brought my younger brother to get familiar with it."

Zhan Lan couldn’t help but laugh, feeling that Mu Yan’s smile was somewhat mischievous.

"Master, the wedding planner is here!" Yun He called out from outside the door.

"Let her in," Mu Yan said cheerfully.

After the wedding planner entered, she beamed with a smile, bowed, and said, "Blessings to the Regent King, blessings to the Princess!"

Mu Yan smirked, "Tell us how to set the bridal bed on the wedding day."

The wedding planner looked at Zhan Heng and said with a smile, "Setting the bridal bed happens on the eve of the wedding. It’s not something just anyone can do, preferably it should be done by the bride’s younger brother. It’s said that the bride’s bed possesses a spiritual energy, and sleeping there can cure all illnesses. Those with back and leg pains will be healed after sleeping in it. Setting the bed with a child ensures the continuation of offspring. It’s best if the child is under ten years old, and this young master is just perfect..."

As the wedding planner kept talking, Zhan Lan whispered to Mu Yan, "Do you believe this?"

Mu Yan raised an eyebrow, "I do."

Zhan Lan rolled her eyes, scoffing internally, Mu Yan, a man who doesn’t believe in gods or spirits, actually believes in folk tales.

Mu Yan tilted his head, whispering in her ear, "I don’t want your younger brother to grow up regretting not having set the bridal bed for you."

After finishing his words, Mu Yan stopped looking at Zhan Lan and listened intently to the wedding planner.

Zhan Heng listened in bewilderment, while Zhan Rui, after hearing the wedding planner finish, said, "Brother, you have to do a good job setting the bridal bed for sister!"

Zhan Lan laughed, it was rare that Zhan Rui didn’t ask why girls couldn’t set the bridal bed.

Mu Yan leaned over to Zhan Heng and Zhan Rui and said, "Let’s go, as a thank you for helping, your brother-in-law will take you out to play!"

"Hooray!" Zhan Rui and Zhan Heng ran quickly to the courtyard.

Mu Yan turned back, stretched out his hand towards Zhan Lan, Zhan Lan smiled helplessly and placed her hand in his, saying, "You just spoil them!"

Mu Yan nodded, "I should spoil them, they are your siblings after all."

Zhan Lan lowered her gaze and smiled, "Mu Yan, thank you."

"If you say thank you again, I’ll kiss you." Mu Yan took her hand and walked forward, a smile on his lips, not wanting Zhan Lan to say thanks – as if that would make his ears callous from hearing it too often.

He wanted his Lan’er to get used to being pampered by him.

Zhan Lan let him pull her hand, feeling happy.

The four of them rode in a carriage, traversing streets and alleys, Zhan Lan and Mu Yan led Zhan Rui and Zhan Heng out to buy snacks and toys.

Liu Xi and Xiao Tao sat in the carriage behind, ready to be summoned.

Zhan Lan and Mu Yan, along with Zhan Rui and Zhan Heng, stopped in front of a candied hawthorn vendor, Mu Yan spoke up, "Three skewers of candied hawthorns."

The vendor looked up at Mu Yan and Zhan Lan and then at the two lovely children, smiling as he handed over the hawthorns, "The young master and his lady are a perfect match, the young lord and young miss are also lovely; such a happy family of four!"

Mu Yan smiled and nodded, "Thank you!"

Zhan Lan raised an eyebrow; Mu Yan was unusually non-sarcastic today, managing even to say those two words.

The vendor happily handed over two skewers of candied hawthorns to Zhan Rui and Zhan Heng, which instantly occupied the waving hands of the two kids, who started munching eagerly with shining eyes.

Mu Yan looked at the vendor and subtly tilted his chin towards Zhan Lan, saying, "The last one for this child."

A skewer of candied hawthorns appeared in front of Zhan Lan, the vendor smiled broadly, thinking how the young man only had eyes for his lady, that look – so doting!

Zhan Lan bit off a piece of the candied hawthorn, squinting her eyes and said, "You’re the kid."

She bit half of the hawthorn, its sour and sweet taste blending with the crunchy candied sugar, just as Zhan Lan was about to ask Mu Yan why he didn’t buy for himself.

The next moment, the other half of the hawthorn she was eating was taken by Mu Yan.

Mu Yan nibbled on the snack while watching her, then uttered one word, "Sweet."

Zhan Lan withdrew the tanghulu she had raised, protectively saying, "Don’t compete with me for it..."

The street vendor looked at this family of four who were not only remarkably attractive but also dressed in luxurious clothes, emitting an aristocratic aura while casually enjoying his tanghulu by the roadside, which brightened his mood.

Zhan Lan took out a copper coin from her purse to pay the vendor, but Mu Yan placed his hand over hers, saying, "Let me."

The vendor thought to himself, "The couple are being quite courteous, it doesn’t matter who pays."

Next, a chunk of gold appeared before him! A gold nugget as big as a jujube!

Mu Yan looked at him and said, "Take it."

The vendor, having never received gold before, nervously replied, "Young master, I can’t make change for this, it’s too much!"

Mu Yan glanced at Zhan Lan and said, "Your family’s tanghulu is very sweet, it’s worth this much, take it!"

With disbelief, the vendor took the gold from Mu Yan’s hands, bowing deeply and saying, "Thank you, young master, thank you, madam! I wish you sweetness and happiness, and a house full of children!"

Mu Yan’s lips curved into a smile. Zhan Lan looked at Mu Yan, thinking to herself: It wasn’t that the vendor’s tanghulu is sweet, but rather his flattery! freewёbnoνel.com

"Brother-in-law, where else are we going to have fun?" Zhan Heng asked while eating his tanghulu.

Zhan Rui also looked at Mu Yan, who found himself lost amidst the repeated calls of ’brother-in-law’ from the kids.

Zhan Lan, feeling sidelined, twitched her mouth and thought, "Ah, these two kids really lack any principle; they’ve forgotten their sister so quickly."

Mu Yan thought for a bit and said, "Follow brother-in-law."

As Zhan Lan watched the three of them walking ahead of her, she could only follow with a smile.

After they left, people immediately surrounded the vendor selling tanghulu, "Wow, you’re so lucky to have been rewarded with gold by the Regent King!"

The vendor, preparing to pack up and buy pastries for his children, froze in shock and asked, "What did you say?"

The surrounding vendors and pedestrians gathered, chattering, "The ones who bought your tanghulu just now were Regent King Mu Yan and Brave General Zhan Lan, you didn’t recognize them?"

The vendor was utterly stunned, looking in the direction the four had departed, stammering excitedly, "I... I... didn’t know, they are such great, significant figures... who bought my tanghulu..."

Someone enviously said, "What did you say just now to make the Regent King so happy?"

"I just wished them sweetness and a house full of children!" said the vendor excitedly.

"You deserve that big nugget of gold! Both Brave General and Regent King are engaged. Regent King really likes General Zhan Lan!"

Remembering, the vendor said, "Indeed, the way Regent King looked at General Zhan, sweeter than the syrup on my tanghulu!"

Recognizing Zhan Rui and Zhan Heng, someone said, "Those two kids are the legitimate second son and legitimate second daughter of the Zhan Family!"

"Look at them, so loving and generous, truly enviable!"

Another person chimed in, "I’ve even had the wedding sweets from Regent King and General Zhan; today I finally saw them in person. They are truly a match made in heaven; even the colors of their clothes match, it’s such a delightful sight!"

The people watched as Zhan Lan and Mu Yan walked away, chatting animatedly.

Some onlookers recognized the identity of Zhan Lan and Mu Yan and bowed respectfully by the roadside.

Mu Yan looked down at his light blue robe with silver cloud patterns, then glanced at Zhan Lan in her light blue gauzy skirt embroidered with silver threads, and smiled gently.

He wanted to hold Zhan Lan’s hand as they walked but considering they were not yet married and in full public view, he refrained, thinking it might reflect poorly on Zhan Lan.

It was not until they arrived at a splendid clothing store that Mu Yan finally discreetly took her hand under their sleeves.

Just as the four of them entered, they spotted a familiar figure.
