Chapter 748 Better than others?
[Also! Before you become a concubine, everything is uncertain. The more health points you have, the better! How can you squander them like this?!]
Wen Jiu couldn't help rolling his eyes when he heard this. He thought she wanted to? If possible, who wouldn't want to live as long as possible?
Isn't this an emergency?
[Ding~ Mission released: Travel to the outer reaches of the Great Wall to search for the Marrow Cleansing Grass. Time limit: 180 days. Success will reward you with a Marrow Cleansing Pill and a set of legendary skills. Also, you can exchange it for a card for any spiritual weapon. Failure will result in a 1500-day health deduction. Do you accept?]
This sentence suddenly popped up in Wenzhou's head, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
[Master!!! You're truly a woman of exceptional luck! She unexpectedly came up with such a quest! We'll be rich if we find the Marrow Cleansing Grass! With the Marrow Cleansing Pill, it's like possessing an innate spiritual body! Whichever young master consumes it, they can master any martial arts technique. They can also choose a legendary martial arts technique, and receive a spiritual weapon! This is simply pie in the sky!]
Wenjiu couldn't help but grit her teeth, her eyes only focused on the 1500 days. She only had a life span of more than 2000 days now, and it was reduced to 1500 days in an instant. Isn't this like going back to the time before liberation?
He immediately started shaking his head and thought, no, the stakes are too high.
Xiao Jin glanced at his master at this moment, and then bumped his head directly into the confirmation.
[Ding, mission accepted successfully, host, please continue to work hard.]
Wenjiu: "...Xiao! Jin!!!"
Wenjiu slammed the table and immediately lifted Xiaojin up by the neck.
"Master, don't be angry, don't be angry. If you get sick from anger, no one can replace you. Trust Xiao Jin, you will definitely not suffer any loss!"
He gritted his teeth, reeking of wine: "Believe it or not, we're having fish soup tonight!"
"Jiu'er, who is Xiaojin? What fish soup do you want to drink?" The Crown Princess couldn't help but frowned when she saw Wenjiu in front of her suddenly getting excited.
He went up to Wenjiu and touched his head: "Your head isn't hot at all."
Wenjiu blinked. "...Nothing, well, I'm just hungry and want some fish soup. Hey? The food is served, let's take our seats."
The Crown Princess naturally did not refuse and ate the warm wine until her belly was full.
The Crown Princess didn't dare to stay any longer. After she finished eating, she stood up and said, "It's almost time. Tell the children to pack up quickly. We'll meet in Cining Palace later."
"Okay, see you later."
After seeing off the Crown Princess, he didn't waste any time warming up the wine, and immediately asked someone to tell the children to pack up quickly.
Several babies were still asleep and were brought to him by their nanny.
Honghui, on the other hand, had already packed up properly this time. He came forward and followed Wen Jiu to pay his respects politely.
Wen Jiu glanced at the time and said, "Hurry up and eat. If you're any later, we'll have to go to the Cining Palace, and there won't be any place for you to eat there."
Except for the second baby who woke up in a daze, the other three were still sleeping.
While warming the wine and finding it funny, he put Erbao and Honghui down together and greeted Honghui with a smile: "Whatever you want to eat, just let the nanny in front of you serve you. Don't be restrained."
Wenjiu actually noticed that Honghui had been peeking at her, but she didn't say anything. She just treated them like ordinary children and gave them a few instructions. As soon as they finished their meal, she took a bucket and went to the Cining Palace.
On the way, Honghui couldn't help but look at Wenjiu again.
In the past, every time he accompanied his mother to the palace, his mother would always tell him how to behave in order to win the favor of the Emperor and the ancestors. He had never heard what Wen Jiu had just said...
It seemed like she only taught them how to be comfortable.
For example, if they want to go to the toilet, feel tired, hungry, or someone is bothering them, they can run to her and call her. If all else fails, they can go find their father and uncles.
It seems like they don't care at all whether they can please the Queen and Mama...
[Ding, received 1 heart from Honghui. ]
[Master! He has given you love again. Such a pure purple color!]
Xiao Jin just jumped out, met Wenjiu's sinister eyes, and immediately shrank his neck and retreated back into the space.
Tsk, the master is so stingy. He just helped her take on a task that she had to take on, so why is he still holding a grudge?
"Why...are you staring at me? Are you scared?"
Noticing Honghui staring at her, Wenjiu couldn't help but ask. To be honest, she was still a little curious about this child.
I was nominally his mother's enemy, so why would he show me any love? I really couldn't understand.
"Aunt Wen, Honghui is rude." Honghui was stunned for a moment and immediately apologized with his fist clenched.
Wen Jiu: "...No, I'm just curious why you keep looking at me."
Honghui: "...Because... Aunt Wen is very gentle, gentler than anyone Honghui has ever met, and better than anyone else."
After saying that, he couldn't help but clench his fists tightly.
The air seemed to stagnate for a few seconds. Wenjiu blinked twice, not expecting to hear such an answer.
Seeing that Honghui seemed a little nervous, he responded, "Oh, so that's the case. Thank you for your compliment. Let's go quickly."
Honghui was stunned, then saw Wenjiu smiling at him calmly and continued walking towards the Cining Palace.
Honghui subconsciously followed Wenjiu, pursed his lips, and said in a barely audible voice: "Thank you, without you, I might be..."
Wenjiu's ears moved, and when he heard these words clearly, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. What does this mean?
I subconsciously looked at Honghui and saw that the color of the heart on his head had become darker.
This kid...seems to have a special liking for me.
Wen Jiu suddenly stopped and said, "Honghui, I want to discuss something with you."
Honghui was stunned: "Auntie Wen, please tell me, Honghui will do anything for you."
The corner of Wen Jiu's mouth twitched: "You...can you not call me Aunt Wen? Call me Aunt, or just call me by my name. My name is Wen Jiu. If you can get used to it, calling me Sister is also fine."
"Auntie, auntie," Wen Jiu felt uncomfortable just hearing it. It was as if he and the Ulanara family had some kind of sisterly relationship.
Honghui was stunned: "Aunt?"
She even asked him to call her...sister? Honghui thought for a moment that maybe he had misheard...
"Oh, this is great." Wenjiu touched Honghui's head and said, "Good boy, let's go."
After taking two steps, Wen Jiu couldn't help but remind her again: "When you are in front of others, you should still call her by the rules. When you are behind others, just call her aunt."
Honghui: “…Yes.”
For a moment, those clear eyes were filled with a bit of confusion. But when he felt the soft touch on his head, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
When Wenjiu brought a few children into the Cining Palace, he noticed that the atmosphere was a little strange.
"Jiu'er, the Empress Dowager has exempted the imperial grandchildren from paying their respects today. This is a reward. Each of the children will receive one. Go back." Concubine De touched her grandson's head, drank the warm wine, and winked.
Wen Jiu's eyes moved slightly, and she handed the child in her arms to Nanny Gui beside her.
"Honghui, go back. Help me look after my brothers."
After saying that, he glanced at Aunt Gui beside him, and Aunt Gui took them back to the East Third Building.
As soon as the child left, Concubine De frowned and said in a low voice, "Be careful today. The Empress Dowager is not feeling well, and a dozen imperial physicians are consulting inside."
Wen Jiu frowned: "What happened to the Empress Dowager? She was fine yesterday."
"I'm not sure yet," Concubine De shook her head slightly, then continued, "What food did you bring to the Empress Dowager yesterday? Please tell me in detail."
