Chapter 181 Mammy
There has been some progress in Xiaoxuan's affairs, and Xia Yutong and Wen Li have gradually settled down in the imperial city.
She felt even more relieved after receiving the letter from home.
In the blink of an eye, it was September, the golden autumn. The emperor was very unhappy to see Wen Li doing nothing all day.
But he is waiting, waiting for his daughter-in-law to give birth to the baby.
By then...
It's time for him, the father, to take a break.
That night, Wen Li suddenly saw Uncle Feng coming.
Uncle Feng is getting older.
Even though he drank the pills Xiaotong prepared for him, his life span was limited and he was still getting older.
"Xiao Li, come with me." As soon as Uncle Feng saw Wen Li, he immediately pulled him out.
Uncle Feng is one of us. Seeing him like this, I think he has something urgent to do.
Wen Li asked Dayi and Dayi to guard the mansion, and he followed Uncle Feng out of the Prince's Mansion.
After arriving at a courtyard in the imperial city, Uncle Feng opened the door and let Wen Li in.
"Go in and see her for the last time." After saying that, Uncle Feng wiped his tears and left.
Everything will pass.
It hasn't been easy for her over the years.
She couldn't tell anyone about her suffering, nor could she tell anyone about her efforts.
Fortunately, all this will soon be over.
Wen Li walked into a dark room.
As soon as he came in, he heard a cough. The sound was very familiar, so familiar that it made his body tremble.
"Who's here?" The person lying on the bed heard the sound and wanted to get up, but she had no strength in her body.
The whole person looks lifeless.
Wen Li had no choice but to walk towards the bed.
When he reached the bed, he was startled.
"Mammy, is that you?" Wen Li approached immediately. He knew the person on the bed. She was the nanny who had been the strictest to him since he was a child.
I don't know when she appeared by his side, teaching and taking care of him.
Ever since he was old enough to understand, he had loved her deeply.
The one who gave him the most warmth, taught him to read, taught him how to protect himself in the harem, and so on.
When he was able to protect himself, she disappeared.
It's not that he didn't ask and look for it. When he was able to leave the palace and had his own power, he also looked for it.
Unfortunately, nothing was gained, it was as if the nanny no longer existed in this world.
When the person on the bed saw who was coming, she quickly covered herself with the quilt.
She didn't dare to see him and didn't want to see him.
She felt guilty towards him.
If it weren't for her, he wouldn't have to suffer so much back then.
Not to mention that she had to struggle to survive in that cannibalistic harem at such a young age.
It's all her fault.
"Mammy." Wen Li was very puzzled when he saw her like this, "Mammy, it's me, I'm Li'er, Li'er, look at me."
Wen Li thought she didn't recognize him, so he spoke quickly.
How could Mammy not know who he was?
But she was too embarrassed to see him.
For so many days and nights, she thought about him, but when she really saw him, she didn't dare to look at him.
Everything he has now is his own fault.
Wen Li didn't understand why the nanny didn't see him.
But he was very worried about her current condition.
He remembered that he had the life-saving pill Xiaotong had given him. Without thinking, he took it out and gave it to Mammy. "Mammy, take this quickly. It will be fine after you take it."
He had a hunch that if he didn't give the pill to his mother-in-law, he would regret it for the rest of his life.
Regardless of whether the nanny agreed or not, Wen Li poured out the medicine, pulled open the quilt, and fed the medicine into the nanny's mouth.
His strength was far superior to that of the nanny. With a little force in his hands, he pulled the nanny out, gently pried her mouth open, and fed the medicine in.
This medicine was made by Xia Yutong for everyone to save their lives. Each person gets one pill. The medicinal materials are precious, and even she cannot get a large amount.
Now that Wen Li has given the pills to the nanny, he no longer has any left.
The medicine does not need to be swallowed with water, just dissolve it in your mouth.
The effect of the medicine was obvious, and Mammy had a noticeable change.
After a while, her haggard face was full of life. It was the first time Wen Li had seen the effect of the pill. He was shocked to see the change in Mammy.
Fortunately, Mammy was not as close to death as she was just now.
"Madam, how are you?" Wen Li half-hugged the madam, and when he saw that she seemed to have recovered a little, he asked softly.
The nanny also felt the changes in her body. She was very surprised and looked up at the person in front of her.
Sadness welled up in my heart.
Tears filled my eyes without me noticing.
"Li'er." She called out with sobs.
"I'm here, I'm here, I'm here." Wen Li felt very uncomfortable.
To him, Mammy was like a mother, teaching him everything.
"Mammy, are you feeling better now?" Even though he saw the effect of the medicine, he was still worried.
The nanny nodded and said, "Much better. You gave me such precious medicine, but what can you do yourself?" Although his ability to handle things is much better than before, everyone has unexpected situations.
She didn't want to deprive him of his life-saving medicine.
"I still have some, don't worry, Ma'am, I still have some." Wen Li hurriedly comforted.
The medicine is not important now, what is important is her.
"That's good, that's good." She felt relieved when she heard him say there was more.
Only one person knew about his presence here, and that was Feng Lou. Now that Li'er appeared here, I was afraid that Feng Lou brought him here.
"Li'er, have you been okay these years?" Nanny has always been concerned about his affairs, but in recent years, she has been bedridden, so she has paid less attention to him.
Wen Li nodded and said, "Madam, I'm fine. I've married and have two children. Now my third child is about to be born."
He explained everything to her in great detail.
After chatting for a long time, Uncle Feng walked in from outside.
"Alas, after so many years, should I tell the young master about what happened?" Uncle Feng didn't want to see them, mother and son, separated again.
The master himself has not had an easy time these years.
Been torturing myself.
In the end, he tortured himself beyond recognition.
He understood his master. He wanted to suffer the same pain as the young master, so that she would feel better.
As for that man, he told his master the truth after he knew it, but his master was such a proud person that no matter what, she was unwilling to turn back.
I just want to watch the young master from the side.
Wen Li was stunned, "Uncle Feng, what's the matter?" He knew that Uncle Feng was hiding something from him, but he couldn't figure out what it was.
Mammy is also very mysterious, always disappearing without a trace.
Uncle Feng did not answer Wen Li. He looked at the person on the bed. This person was his master.
The former Crown Princess, later the Queen of Dayan.
Wen Li's biological mother, Feng Wenlan.
Don't look at her now, she was one of the most influential figures in Dayan back then.
Feng Wenlan lying on the bed was stunned for a moment, and finally shook his head.
Let’s not talk about this anymore, let’s just assume that Li’er’s mother died when he was young.
What's the difference between being like this and being dead?
Seeing that she was still not going to say anything at this point, Uncle Feng stomped his feet and beat his chest, turned around and left.
Wen Li frowned, "Mammy, what on earth are you and Uncle Feng hiding from me?" He didn't want to be the one being kept in the dark.
But they were the people left to him by his mother, who had watched him grow up since he was a child, so he couldn't do anything to them.
Feng Wenlan patted his hand and said, "Li'er, don't ask anymore. Madam will tell you later, okay?"
Her life was saved by Li'er, and she had more time to see Li'er.
Seeing that she really didn't want to talk, Wen Li stopped asking.
However, "Mammy, please come back to the Prince's Mansion with me." It would have been fine if he hadn't found her before, but now that she appeared in front of him, it was impossible for her to stay outside alone.
Feng Wenlan was of course reluctant to go to the Prince's Mansion.
"No, this place is nice. Li'er, come and see me whenever you miss me." She was scared.
Afraid to see that person, afraid to touch upon the past.
She is really hurting others and herself.
Seeing that the nanny insisted, Wen Li no longer forced her, but said, "Since the nanny doesn't want to go back home with me, then I will find a few people to serve you." Looking at this house, it seems that the nanny is not having a good time either.
How could Feng Wenlan not have someone to serve him?
It’s just that Uncle Feng went to see Wen Li today, so he sent everyone in the yard away.
"No need, your uncle Feng will arrange everything here, don't worry." It can be seen that he is worried about himself.
It's good like this now.
Uncle Feng went out and came back.
But this time he came back not alone, but with two girls.
"Young Master, please ask the maid to clean up for Madam. We can talk later if there is anything else."
He knew that the young master had a lot to say, but the nanny couldn't do this. She was sweating all over and needed to take a shower.
"Okay, I'll listen to Uncle Feng."
Wen Li gently put Mammy down, then stood up from the bed: "Mammy. I'll wait for you outside."
Wen Li didn't go back until the afternoon.
He made an agreement with the nanny that he would come to see her every few days.
He will help her with her old age.
Let's change the yard too, it's too small here.
But the nanny disagreed. She thought the yard was pretty good, neither too big nor too small.
It's enough for her and Fenglou.
After making all the arrangements, Wen Li returned home.
As soon as he arrived at the mansion, he was in a very good mood and told Xiaotong about the nanny.
Xia Yutong was pregnant now and her mind wasn't very clear, so after hearing what he said, she asked him to go see the nanny with her someday.
Wen Li agreed without thinking too much.
In a blink of an eye, Xiaoxuan and the others arrived in South City, and Xia Yutong also started to move.
Fortunately, this time it was a baby girl, and she often drank the spiritual spring water on weekdays, so she gave birth to a daughter smoothly.
That’s right, this time it’s a daughter.
Finally, he had completed the most important step in his life, completing a good character. This child was born to be loved by everyone.
The emperor took over all the ceremonies such as the third day bath and the full moon.
In his words, he couldn't do anything for Gen'er and the others, but he had to do something for the little princess.
In this way, the little girl was named a princess by her grandfather.
After the eldest princess, another princess was born in Dayan.
She was named Princess Yi'an.
It implies peace in the world.
This shows how much the emperor loves this granddaughter.
What's more, she was born on the day of harvest, which made it even more auspicious.
Seeing that her daughter's third month bath and full month celebration were so grand, Xia Yutong was afraid that Gen'er and the others would think too much, so she called them over.
Tell them about the circumstances when they were born.
However, the two were so happy about their little sister that they didn't care at all about what their mother said.
At night, Wen Li slept in bed with Xia Yutong in his arms. He knew what she was worried about.
It is true that the emperor is heartless, but when the emperor favors only one person and gives all his love to that one person, then he is a lover.
"Xiaotong, don't think too much. Yi'an and Gen'er are different. They will understand when they grow up." If you are not satisfied, go find their emperor grandfather.
Of course, he didn't say the latter part.
The birth of Princess Yian brought new life to the entire royal family.
In order to see his granddaughter, the emperor started fighting with his own son again.
Sometimes there was an imperial edict, sometimes there was an oral order.
If Wen Li hadn't considered his face, she really didn't want to accept it.
"Go, it's okay." After staying at home for a few days, Gen'er and the others were taken to the palace by their royal grandfather.
The two of them not only learned what the Master taught, but also learned many royal studies.
They both study the same thing, and when they grow up, whoever wants that position and has the ability will get it.
The emperor and Wen Li both reached a consensus on this matter.
He is not afraid of them fighting, but he is afraid that they will be humble. By then, he will not have the energy to give birth to another son.
Fortunately, the two have completely different personalities. Gen'er is more stable, while Chang'er is more active and is definitely developing into a great general.
Asking him to read is harder than asking him to live, but he is more enthusiastic than anyone else when it comes to wielding swords and guns.
At the end of the 29th year of Dayan, Wen Li took Xia Yutong and his three children to the nanny's courtyard.
This is not their first time here.
It came once during Xia Yutong's pregnancy and again after she left the confinement period.
She could see that Wen Li valued this nanny very much.
But the nanny always had another feeling towards Wen Li, and Xia Yutong couldn't figure out what it was.
But they are like a family here, and there is no sense of incongruity at all.
Nanny is very good to Xia Yutong, even better than Wen Li.
"I made these myself. Didn't you say they were delicious last time? I made more this time. You can take some away when you go back later."
Xia Yutong's taste changed a lot after she gave birth to Yi'an. She rarely ate sweets before, but now she can't live without sugar.
"Thank you, Mammy. You are the best." Xia Yutong was so happy when she saw what Mammy had prepared for her.
Wen Li held Yi An in his arms, feeling so sad in his heart, "Mammy, where is mine?" He preferred salty food, and Mammy hadn't made it for him for a long time.
"You're here." After saying that, she took out a plate of pastries: "This is for you alone. I don't know why you like salty food." The nanny complained a little.
Of course, she knew in her heart that he was like his father and preferred salty food.
"Just this plate?" Wen Li looked at the pastries on the table. There were five or six kinds, and what about himself?
Just one.
"What else? How much more do you want?" the nanny said unhappily.
Ever since she took the medicine he gave her, she looked radiant and was completely different from when Wen Li first met her.
Now the nanny looks almost the same as Xia's mother, not old at all.
You can imagine how powerful the drug is.
Xia Yutong gloated over the misfortune. "Who told you not to eat sweets and say they're salty? You deserve it."
She just likes to see him like this, making him jealous.
Yian fell asleep obediently in her father's arms, without being disturbed at all.
Wen Li was also like a treasure. Even when Yi An was sleeping, he held her in his arms and didn't feel tired at all.
