Tang Li looked at the woman on the bed. The woman was in her forties, with her eyes closed, her face pale, and she looked very gentle.
Tang Li thought that she must be a gentle mother. If the original body had not been lost, she would definitely be very happy to be in her arms.
After a while, a nanny came in with two bowls of ginseng soup. She gave one bowl to Tangli and fed the other bowl to the person lying on the bed.
After Tangli drank the ginseng soup, he felt better.
The person lying on the bed also looked better.
"Who is the young lady?" Madam Zhao looked at Tangli and asked.
She was very grateful to Tang Li. She was not with the lady just now, and Nanny Chen could not swim. If this girl had not appeared in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Nanny Zhao looked at Tangli and saw that this girl had an outstanding temperament and seemed to be no ordinary girl.
"My name is Tangli, and I'm Lord Wu's daughter-in-law." Tangli said.
"It turns out to be Madam Wu." said Madam Zhao.
The news that Lord Wu had returned to the capital with his entire family had actually spread throughout the capital, but this was the first time people had seen it.
"Is Madam Gu not in good health?" Tang Li thought for a moment and asked.
Madam Zhao saw the sincerity in her eyes, which showed she truly cared about Madam, so she said truthfully, "Madam has a long-standing illness and frequent headaches, which have become more and more frequent recently."
She sighed softly, "All the doctors couldn't help. I've also contacted the imperial physician in the palace."
Nanny Zhao was very worried, but there was nothing she could do.
The two talked for a while, and then the doctor came and took Mrs. Gu's pulse.
"Madam is fine. She will wake up after some rest," said the doctor.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Tangli did not leave, but stayed in the room.
"Baoer...Baoer..." The person lying on the bed suddenly muttered in a low voice.
Tang Li and Madam Zhao approached at the same time and saw that Madam Gu was frowning, as if she had had a nightmare and was shouting something.
Seeing Mrs. Gu raise her hand as if to grab something, Tang Li quickly reached out and her hand was grabbed.
"Baoer, don't go, don't leave your mother!" Her voice became clearer.
Baoer is the young lady's nickname. Zhao Ma knew that the lady was dreaming about the young lady.
The lady was so afraid of losing her daughter that even after she found her daughter, she still had nightmares from time to time.
Mrs. Gu grabbed Tangli's hand tightly.
"Baoer..."
Tang Li looked at her frowning face and replied softly, "I'm here."
Mrs. Gu gradually calmed down.
While everyone in the room was worried about Madam Gu, only Nanny Chen's eyes flickered when she looked at Tang Li.
She made an excuse, left the room, and found a familiar servant.
"Hurry back to the mansion and tell the young lady..."
In the room, Tang Li stayed by Mrs. Gu's side.
After a while, Mrs. Gu woke up.
Her eyes moved around the room.
"Madam, you just fainted. How do you feel now?" asked Madam Zhao worriedly.
Mrs. Gu's memory returned. She remembered that she was walking along the shore when she suddenly had a headache and felt dizzy. The last thing she remembered was falling into the water and then losing consciousness.
"It's okay." Mrs. Gu's voice was a little weak.
Mrs. Gu's gaze finally fell on Tang Li with confusion.
"Madam, this is the young lady of Lord Wu's family. She saved you when you fell into the water." Nanny Zhao explained hurriedly.
"Mrs. Gu." Tang Li stared at her with his black and white eyes and said.
Madam Gu found herself still holding her hand, and she did not let go, looking at the girl, she seemed to like her quite a bit.
"Help me sit up." Mrs. Gu said.
Tang Li and Nanny Zhao helped Madam Gu up together.
Madam Gu looked at everyone in the room and said, "All of you, go out."
In the end, only Tangli and Zhao Ma were left in the room.
Mrs. Gu had a good impression of her savior and pulled her aside to talk.
Just as Tang Li expected, Mrs. Gu was very gentle and spoke softly.
This is probably what Tangli imagined her mother to be like.
"How has Madam Wu treated you? I know her. She is a kind person. I think she treats you well. You are a blessed child."
"You've adopted four children. What a kind child you are. You're so young, aren't you tired of raising four children?"
"You just arrived in the capital, so you don't have many friends, right? We get along well. When you have time, you can come to the General's Mansion to find me."
"Why are your hands so cold? Put them in and warm them up." Mrs. Gu grabbed Tang Li's hand and put it into the quilt.
In fact, she was not cold, but when she covered herself up, she felt warm in her heart.
Tang Li listened to her caring words and looked at her gentle face. His nose felt sore and he actually wanted to cry.
Speaking of which, Gu Ying is truly the heroine of this world, blessed by the heavens. Tang Li and Madam Gu don't look alike, but Gu Ying's eyes do. Standing next to her, Gu Ying looks more like Madam Gu's daughter. So, the plot of recognizing a person's kinship based solely on appearance, as in some novels, doesn't exist.
If Tang Li had not traveled into this book, not only would her original self have no idea that she was the general's daughter, even if she had managed to escape from the human traffickers and stood in front of her biological mother, the other party would not recognize her.
Gu Ying is blessed by heaven, and the heroine's aura is really powerful.
Fortunately, when she first entered the book, she kept her composure and did not rush to recognize her relatives. Otherwise, she would have been a stumbling block to Tiandao's biological daughter and would have been eliminated directly.
Suddenly, there were hurried footsteps outside the door, and soon there was a knock on the door.
"Mom!" A crisp voice came from outside the door.
"The young lady is here!" Nanny Zhao hurried to open the door.
Sure enough, there was a beautiful girl standing outside the door. It was Gu Ying.
Gu Ying walked in quickly, her eyes swept over Tang Li, her pupils shrank slightly, and soon returned to normal.
"Mom, I rushed over when I heard you fell into the water. I was so scared. I really regret it. I should have come with you earlier!" Gu Ying said, her eyes red. "I'm so glad you're okay."
As he spoke, he squatted down beside the bed, raised his head and looked at Madam Gu with an admiring look.
Mrs. Gu reached out and touched her head. "Mom, it's okay. Look how fast you ran. Your forehead is covered in sweat."
As he spoke, he took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat off Gu Ying's face very gently.
Gu Ying said coquettishly: "I'm worried about mother."
Tang Li looked at this scene and felt a little uncomfortable.
Heaven's way, oh Heaven's way, is so unfair.
All this favor should have been given to the original body, but was taken away by the fake Gu Ying!
Gu Ying's eyes fell on Tang Li, and she looked puzzled: "Who is this girl?"
"This girl's name is 'Tangli'. She saved my mother." Mrs. Gu said gently and waved to Tangli.
Tangli walked over.
Madam Gu held Tangli in one hand and Gu Ying in the other: "You two are about the same age, and you are both good children. You should get closer to each other in the future."
Tangli's expression changed, and an innocent smile appeared on her face. She said sweetly, "Sister Gu."
Gu Ying looked at her face. That day in front of the general's mansion, she was distant and cold, unlike that person. But now, with this innocent look, she looked very much like that person.
That person was so innocent, following her around and calling her "sister".
Gu Ying's heart skipped a beat.
Could it really be her?
Why did she appear in front of her mother?
Was it intentional or unintentional?
The more Gu Ying thought about it, the more uneasy she felt.
