Chapter 244
"Your Highness, Madam Li and Miss Li have come to see you," Granny Luo quickly reminded her when she saw Yao's expression change.
The old princess quickly composed herself, offering an awkward smile as she looked at Madam Yao beside her.
For a moment, I was a little dazzled and thought to myself, no wonder Li Zhiwei is so beautiful.
This Lady Yao was undoubtedly a beauty.
The old princess felt a little better after her earlier disappointment.
After all, as people get older, seeing beautiful people or things always makes them feel better.
That brat, if he doesn't want to come, he doesn't have to. Anyway, none of them are as beautiful as these two beauties in front of us.
"Greetings, Your Highness!" Li Zhiwei bowed to the old princess first.
"Greetings to the late Princess Consort!" Madam Yao awkwardly performed a half-squatting curtsy.
"So this is Madam Li. It's true what they say, seeing is believing. Please, no need for formalities." The old princess made a move to get up and help Madam Yao to her feet.
"Your Highness, please lie down," Madam Yao said with some trepidation.
She couldn't make up her mind. Did the old princess like her daughter or not?
"Your Highness, are you feeling better?" Li Zhiwei asked with a smile after helping Yao Shi up.
"You're so kind, child. I'm feeling much better now," the old princess said with a smile, then added with a touch of sadness, "I'm getting old, and my body isn't what it used to be."
"What are you saying, Your Highness? You're perfectly healthy; it's just a minor cold," Granny Luo quickly advised, while giving Li Zhiwei a wink.
Although Li Zhiwei didn't understand why Granny Luo said that, she still replied, "Granny Luo is right, Your Highness, you must get better soon."
Li Zhiwei thought to herself, didn't the old princess say that she was poisoned by that cousin?
Why didn't you tell her?
Why insist on calling it a cold?
"The old princess must take good care of herself," Yao said with a smile.
She had a feeling in her heart, but since it was her first time visiting someone's home, there were some things she definitely couldn't say.
"Xiuzhu, why don't you quickly serve tea to Madam Li?" When the old lady saw Madam Li, she thought to herself, "Now, it's time to put the marriage between Xu Heming and Li Zhiwei on the agenda, isn't it?"
"When Heming returned, he told his wife that the madam had come to the capital. His wife should have paid her a visit, but now, her health is failing her. She hopes that the madam will not blame her for being impolite," the old princess said apologetically.
"Your Highness, what are you saying? You should rest well. His Majesty said that he has bestowed a mansion upon the master. When Your Highness has recovered, you may come and visit the mansion." Madam Yao thought for a moment and said with a smile.
"Oh? I didn't expect such a good thing. That's great! I'll definitely have to go and check it out when the time comes." The old princess was in a much better mood upon hearing this.
"Qingshi went to Li'an County with us before. That child is naughty, and it has caused Zhiwei a lot of trouble." The old princess also wanted to know if Xu Qingshi had been wronged, but she hadn't seen Xu Qingshi since she returned. She was a little unsure and even wondered if Xu Qingshi had been injured in Li'an County, which was why he didn't dare to come to see her.
“Your Highness, Qingshi is a well-behaved child, so don’t worry. We came back by water, but unexpectedly, both Qingshi and the Prince got seasick,” Li Zhiwei quickly said.
"Seasickness?" The old princess looked at Granny Luo with a puzzled expression.
