Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress

Chapter 29 She doesn’t want the old lady to be sad anymore

The old lady has been sleeping, and Jingshu is sitting on the small wooden bed in front of the couch, watching over her quietly.

In the middle of the night, Nanny Xu came over. She entered the inner room and saw that the old lady was still sleeping. She asked Jingshu who was sitting next to her, "Has the old lady not woken up?"

Jingshu nodded and said, "I have been sleeping."

As the two were talking, the old lady frowned slightly. Seeing that the old lady seemed to be waking up, Jingshu quickly got up and went outside to get tea.

 The old lady opened her eyes, and Nanny Xu came forward, looked at her and said, "You're awake. Do you feel better?"

 The old lady was speechless, but hot tears fell from her muddy eyes.

 She was strong-willed when she was young. Nanny Xu rarely saw her crying and asked anxiously: "What's wrong with you? Do you feel uncomfortable?"

The old lady murmured: "I don't feel uncomfortable physically, I feel uncomfortable in my heart."

Of course Aunt Xu understands what the old lady is thinking.

 She suddenly fell ill this time, wasn't it because she was worried about her granddaughter Qingluan.

Mother Xu advised: "The Ninth Princess is fine now. You must relax and take good care of yourself."

The old lady grabbed Nanny Xu's hand and choked with sobs: "I just dreamed of A-Xian and A-Tian again."

 The tragic death of her two daughters in the palace was the sorrow of the old lady's life.

When Grandma Xu saw the old lady mentioning this, she couldn't help but feel sad. She held back her tears and advised, "You are still ill, so why bother thinking about these things? The most important thing is to take care of yourself."

The old lady sobbed: "I really shouldn't have agreed to send them to the palace in the first place. It was me who caused them misery. It's all my fault."

At the end of the story, the old lady was heartbroken and cried loudly.

Li Ling heard the sound and walked in quickly from outside, but was stopped by Jing Shu standing at the door.

 The old lady has a strong nature. Although she has experienced many tragedies, she has never shown them in front of others. She just woke up and didn't know that she and Li Ling were also here. With her temperament, she definitely didn't want her children and grandchildren to see her like this.

Li Ling also understood what Jing Shu meant.

 The two quietly exited the inner room.

Jingshu went to the small kitchen to take out the warm white porridge, put it in a thermal-insulated porcelain jar, and brought it back to Anxi Hall. She stood outside and listened to the silence in the inner room.

 Presumably the old lady has been comforted by Aunt Xu.

She quietly walked to the door carrying the porridge and winked at Aunt Xu.

 Mother Xu understood, came over and took the hot porridge, brought it to the old lady's bed and advised: "I asked them to heat the porridge, you should eat some."

 The old lady shook her head in silence.

Mother Xu then advised: "You have to take good care of yourself, right? The Ninth Princess is still relying on you for protection."

These words touched the heart of the old lady, and she said: "Just feed me a few bites."

Aunt Xu happily agreed and fed the porridge into the old lady's mouth with a small spoon. While feeding, she murmured: "Your illness makes the children anxious. Brother Ling and the second lady are here." After guarding you for most of the night, I forced them to go back and rest before you woke up."

"Shu'er has a good temper and is thoughtful. He is a rare good child." The old lady paused and said happily: "In the future, I will hand over this home to her, and I will feel relieved to death."

Aunt Xu replied: "What are you talking about? If you want to live a long life, you have to watch your great-grandchildren grow up, right?"

After listening to Aunt Xu's words, the old lady's face softened and she murmured: "Yes, I still need to see my great-grandson." After saying that, she looked up at Aunt Xu and asked: "This time Is there any movement from the second daughter-in-law?"

Jingshu stood at the door. After listening to the old lady's words, her pink face could not help but blush. Li Ling lowered his head and looked at her, his eyes shining brightly.

Jingshu felt his gaze, raised her head and gave him a dagger.

Li Ling muttered with his lips: "Why are you staring at me? It's not me who is in a hurry." As he spoke, he quietly pointed inside and whispered: "It's the grandmother who is in a hurry to hold her grandson."

Jingshu gave him another slap in the face, left him and turned to the outer room.

I heard Nanny Xu smiling and saying in the inner room: "It's been less than three months since the Second Madam came in. You are always too impatient."

After a while, Nanny Xu came out with an empty bowl and whispered to Li Ling and Jingshu: "I just ate half a bowl of porridge and now I'm asleep again. The old lady is fine. Don't worry, Prince Master and Madam." "

She glanced at Jing Shu's particularly worried look, and then said: "I have been with the old lady my whole life, and I know her best. Just don't worry. You are tired after staying up for most of the night. Go back and rest quickly. I'll come back tomorrow. "

Jingshu nodded and said, "Then I'll come back tomorrow."

　　It was already midnight when they returned to Qingfeng Garden. The two of them were so tired that they didn't bother to wash up and went to bed most of the night.

Li Ling pulled off the quilt, covered Jingshu first, and said, "You have worked hard today, go to bed quickly."

Jingshu hummed, turned around and was about to fall asleep, when Li Ling's arm stretched out and pulled her into his arms.

Jingshu broke away from his arms, squinted her eyes and said, "I'm tired and want to sleep."

 She did not lose her temper with him.

 But, I am really tired after a busy day and night.

 At this moment, I don’t have the energy to worry about those things with him.

Li Ling calmed down when he saw her tired and haggard face, patted the back of his hand and said, "Go to sleep."

Jingshu closed her eyes, but the old lady's grief-stricken look appeared in her mind.

　　　Her unborn child in her previous life was miscarried, and she felt heart-piercingly sad, not to mention the old lady suddenly losing her two blooming adult daughters.

 She can also feel the pain of the old lady.

"Is Qingluan really okay?" Jingshu asked leisurely in the dark night.

At this moment, she really didn’t want anything to happen to Qingluan, but it wasn’t that she suddenly became enlightened and became an eternally virtuous wife. But, she didn't want the old lady to be sad anymore.

Li Ling was a little surprised when she asked about Qingluan. In Anxi Hall just now, he clearly felt that she didn't like him mentioning Qingluan.

“It’s okay, I’m just weak and need to rest.”

 It’s better if you don’t die!

Jingshu felt relieved, tucked in the quilt and was about to fall asleep.

Li Ling then added: "It's just that the inner court hasn't found out her murderer yet."

In just one sentence, Jingshu could clearly feel the deep resentment of the person next to her. She sneered in her heart, but was too lazy to deal with him anymore. She closed her eyes and fell asleep tiredly.
