Upon hearing this, Chen Zhaoci quickly wiped away her tears and exclaimed in surprise, "Yuexi is pregnant again? Oh my, how long has it been? When is her due date?"
Xu Di answered them one by one with a smile. The old lady smiled and said, "Zhao Ci, look at you, come and have a drink of water and rest. You must be exhausted after a whole night."
Chen Zhaoci bowed to the old lady and said, "Grandmother, how could I be tired? I'm perfectly fine. How have you been these days? I left in such a hurry that I didn't even have time to prepare any emergency medicine for you."
The old lady smiled and said, "I'm fine, I'm fine. It's better if you're all fine. Everyone's here. Hurry up and tell the kitchen to bring out the food."
Marquis Yongning has returned and told the old lady what happened. The old lady is experienced and knows that the matter was resolved without bloodshed, so she is naturally happy. Seeing that Xu Di has returned and Xu Rao will bring Chen Zhaoci back later, she knows that the dinner must not have been good, so she asked the kitchen to prepare some light food and send it over.
Marquis Yongning laughed and said, "I really haven't eaten much. I've been on tenterhooks the whole time, so how could I have any appetite?"
Chen Zhaoci said with a smile, "I did eat. My father-in-law arranged for someone to serve me a hot pot. I'm quite full, so I'm not hungry now."
Upon hearing this, Xu Di couldn't help but laugh and said, "Mother, you're still the same as before, with such a big heart, you can eat anytime."
Chen Zhaoci said nonchalantly, "Eating is naturally the most important thing. If I don't eat enough, and someone gets injured, I won't have the strength to save them properly, right? Not eating properly is not only irresponsible to myself, but also to my injured person."
Xu Rao watched his wife and child bicker with a smile. He hadn't thought much of it before, but now that the two of them were bickering again, Xu Rao felt as if he had just woken up from a dream. But such opportunities would only become fewer and fewer. Xu Di had already left home and would go to many places in the future. As Xu Di's parents, all he and Chen Zhaoci could do was stay at home and wait for their child to return.
This is something many parents experience. When children are young, they don't feel this way at all, but as children grow up and are able to leave home and go far away, this feeling becomes stronger and stronger. In fact, it is a sense of loss that parents feel when they get old, when their children grow up, and when they grow old.
It was getting late, and the old lady was quite old. After Chen Zhaoci finished eating, the old lady helped her to bed. The old lady held Chen Zhaoci's hand and said softly, "Zhaoci, now that you have such a close relationship with the royal family, you don't need to be afraid in the future. Just speak frankly with His Majesty about anything. Our family has been entangled with him and we can't get rid of him."
Chen Zhaoci patted the old lady's hand and said softly, "Grandmother, I understand. Don't worry, I won't suffer any loss."
Chen Zhaoci stayed in Emperor Liang Cheng's study for more than twenty days for the sake of Emperor Liang Cheng's health. If this were to spread, it would greatly affect Chen Zhaoci's reputation. The old lady said these words to Chen Zhaoci to comfort him.
