Chapter 817 The Qin Family's Girl
Looking at her receding figure, Nan Yan frowned and immediately said, "Xiao Yu, accompany me to see my grandmother."
Hearing that Madam Si was in poor health, there was no way Ran Xiaoyu could stop her.
He hurriedly supported her and carefully led her to the side room.
When I pushed the door open, I saw Tong Yuhua leaning against the head of the bed. A maid was holding a bowl of medicine and feeding it to her spoonful by spoonful.
Tong Yuhua swallowed a mouthful, and immediately her face wrinkled with bitterness. She pushed away the spoon that was brought to her mouth and said, "It's too bitter. I don't want to drink it."
"Madam, no."
The maidservant said earnestly, "You are not feeling well. The imperial physician has ordered this medicine, so you must take it."
“…”
"How about this, after you finish drinking, I'll get you some cakes to eat, okay?"
When the old man heard that there were snacks, he was excited.
So he said, "We need some osmanthus cake."
"Okay, okay."
The maid nodded hurriedly and put the remaining medicine into her mouth.
After finally finishing the medicine, the maid wiped the sweat from her head. Just as she was about to get up to get some snacks, she saw Si Nanyan standing at the door and knelt down hurriedly, "Your Highness."
Tong Yuhua also turned around and saw Nan Yan, and immediately said happily: "Nan Yan."
Nan Yan hurried over: "Grandma."
She sat down on the edge of the bed. Actually, her legs were very weak from walking all the way. Tong Yuhua saw her and happily grabbed her arm, saying, "You're finally here."
“…”
"Where have you been? Why haven't I seen you these past few days?"
"I--"
Nan Yan hesitated and was speechless.
Ran Xiaoyu behind her immediately said: "Old Madam, the Imperial Concubine had some important matters to attend to, so she left for two days."
Nan Yan nodded immediately: "Yes."
"So it's something important," Tong Yuhua said, nodding slightly, but her eyes still revealed a bit of loneliness. She said softly: "But, no matter how important it is, don't forget an old woman like me."
Nan Yan suddenly felt sad.
In fact, my grandmother has always been very lonely. Although everyone takes care of her at home, there are very few people who can really talk to her.
Now, she is by his side, but he is pregnant. He is in great trouble and cannot visit her often.
You can imagine how lonely the elderly feel.
Nan Yan said softly, "Don't worry, Grandma. I will definitely come to see you more often."
"That's right."
Hearing her assurance, Tong Yuhua seemed very happy. She patted the back of her hand gently and said, "I'm getting older and more confused. Most of the time, I can't remember things clearly. I can only remember things from a long time ago. I want to find someone to talk to."
“…”
"But I don't know who to tell."
“…”
"If you don't come, I'll just have to talk to the girl from the Qin family."
Nan Yan's heart skipped a beat.
Sure enough, recently, Qin Ruolan has been visiting her grandmother frequently.
However, although Nan Yan almost got furious when she saw the two of them together last time, she didn't feel so uncomfortable now.
Perhaps it was fortunate that Qin Ruolan accompanied her grandmother during the two days when she was kidnapped.
Moreover, she did not tell her grandmother about the incident, so as not to let the old lady worry about her.
Nan Yan felt a little grateful to her in her heart.
Then, he said to Tong Yuhua, "Grandma, you can tell me what you want to say."
Tong Yuhua smiled at her.
A tired expression slowly appeared on that old face, his eyelids drooped heavily, and he leaned back on the pillow while softly saying, "There are so many things I want to say to you..."
As we were talking, we fell asleep.
This is what happens when people get older, they get sleepy at any time.
Nan Yan looked at her for a while, and felt sad again.
She had no strength, so she could only ask Ran Xiaoyu to come over and help her grandmother lie down. She covered her with the quilt and stayed with her for a while until she became tired and was persuaded by Ran Xiaoyu to leave.
When I walked out of the room, I saw the maid coming back.
Nan Yan frowned: "How is my grandmother?"
The maid said, "The old lady hasn't been feeling well these past two days. The Emperor has had the imperial physician come every day to check her pulse, and she's been taking medicine every day."
"Does Concubine Ning come here every day?"
"Yes, Concubine Ning comes to visit the old lady almost every day."
“…”
Nan Yan was silent for a while, and said nothing, only saying lightly: "Take good care of my grandmother."
"As you command."
Nan Yan returned to Yishou Hall and felt very depressed for a while. She thought about the various disasters she had encountered during these days and how she had not even had a good meal with her grandmother.
Just at this time Zhu Feng arrived.
Seeing him sitting by the window with a slightly frown on his face, she walked over and asked softly, "What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"
Nan Yan raised her head and said, "Your Majesty, I can go and have dinner with my grandmother every day these days. Can Your Majesty also come?"
"you……"
"I went to see my grandmother today. She's not feeling well."
Zhu Feng took a deep breath and then said, "I didn't tell you because I didn't want to affect your health."
Nan Yan said dejectedly, "But grandma is still grandma after all."
“…”
"She was the only person who was nice to me all those years."
“…”
"Her health is like this now, I don't know how much longer I can stay with her."
Zhu Feng's face was heavy. After a long while, he sighed and said, "Okay, if you want to accompany her, I will accompany her with you."
Nan Yan smiled at him happily.
So in the next few days, the emperor and the imperial concubine would go to Madam Si's room every day, sometimes to talk to her, and sometimes to eat with her.
The originally frail Madam Si suddenly became full of energy.
Although Nan Yan was physically weak, she tried to cheer herself up.
On the contrary, after Zhu Feng had gone through these two days, when he was accompanying Nan Yan to rest at night, he looked at the candlestick beside the bed with a serious expression.
Nan Yan nestled in his arms and whispered, "What is the emperor thinking about?"
Zhu Feng hesitated for a moment and said, "So this is what it feels like to have a meal with your family."
Nan Yan looked up at him.
At dinner today, my grandmother, who had traveled extensively in her early years and had a strong taste for spicy food, had the kitchen bring some spicy food. Zhu Feng's face flushed red from the spiciness, and my grandmother smiled and said, "Don't drink water; it won't help. Drink some vinegar instead; it can help with the spiciness."
Zhu Feng asked someone to bring up a dish of vinegar. After drinking some, he found that it was not as spicy as expected.
Although it was just a small thing, he seemed to have gained a lot of insights.
"No one taught me this."
Nan Yan looked at him curiously: "Hasn't the Queen Mother taught the Emperor?"
The queen mother she was referring to was of course the late Queen Chen.
