In the middle of the night, there seemed to be several thunders in the night sky. Sifeng was a little afraid of thunder, so Wanyue hugged her on the bed where she slept and comforted her for a while before she fell asleep.
After a while, it started to rain heavily outside the house, and the raindrops pattered on the eaves, making the sound a bit harsh.
At dawn the next day, the rain was still falling hard, and there were blisters in the courtyard of Xinan Pavilion.
Ying'er combed Wanyue's hair into a bun, and Yuewen helped Wanyue change her clothes. When Wanyue walked to the dining table in the main hall, Hongsheng was already obediently lying on the table waiting for breakfast, but the breakfast hadn't been brought yet. .
Wanyue frowned and asked, "Who is getting breakfast today?"
"Back to Fujin, it's Grandma Wang who went to the dining room to get food." Ying'er replied.
Wanyue couldn't help but look up at the dripping raindrops outside the house. If it were according to the time she usually got up, breakfast would have been served by now. Wanyue turned her head and asked Ying'er and Yuewen coldly: "How long has Grandma Wang been gone?"
Ying'er and Yuewen looked at each other, and Ying'er looked hesitant and said, "It seems to have been almost half an hour."
"So long?" When Wanyue said this, there was an unnatural look on her face.
Although it is still raining today, the dining room is not very far from Xinuang Pavilion. Logically speaking, you can arrive there in less than a quarter of an hour after returning from the dining room on weekdays.
Ying'er and Yue Wen shook their heads at each other in confusion. Wanyue was a little worried that nothing would happen!
She quickly ordered to Ying'er and Yue Wen: "You two take your umbrellas and go see if Grandma Wang is in the dining room now?"
After receiving the order, the two people retreated one after another.
But Wanyue never expected that what she would get would be heartbreaking news.
When Ying'er and Yue Wen came back, they were both wet and no one dared to speak to Wanyue.
Looking at the two of them, Wanyue's face showed a look of confusion.
"Why are you two so wet? What happened?" Wanyue looked at them in surprise and asked sharply.
Ying'er shook her head, and Yuewen was too scared to speak.
The bad premonition in Wanyue's heart became stronger, and she said sharply again: "Say it quickly!"
Ying'er raised her head tremblingly, looked at Wanyue with a sad face, and replied with some trembling: "Fu Jin, Grandma Wang, she accidentally fell on the stone steps, she bled to death!"
These words hit Wanyue like a thunderbolt. She staggered back a few steps and fell to the ground. Upon seeing this, Ying'er and Yuewen hurriedly recovered from the shock and stepped forward to help Wanyue up.
At this moment, Wanyue's eyes were filled with tears, and she kept shouting: "Grandma Wang, Grandma Wang, Grandma Wang"
Seeing this, Hong Sheng quickly stood up and walked towards Wanyue, patted Wanyue's back with his small hand and said, "Mother, don't be sad."
After a while, tears were soaked all over her cheeks, and her body was still trembling slightly.
Both Ying'er and Yue Wen knew that Aunt Wang was Fujin's slave and had an unusual relationship. Fujin must have been very sad about Aunt Wang's death.
Probably because she wanted to see Grandma Wang, Wanyue cried for a while, wiped the tears on her face with a handkerchief, and tried to hide the sadness in her heart. She stood up and glanced at Ying'er and Yuewen with swollen eyes, and then picked up the hoarse The voice asked: "Yue Wen, please take Hong Sheng down first. Ying'er, tell me everything you encountered today word for word."
Wanyue took Ying'er to the table and wrote down everything Ying'er said without missing a beat.
According to what Ying'er said, she and Yue Wen found Grandma Wang in the backyard of the dining room. That place was mainly used to store some sundries. However, every time the people in Xinan Pavilion wanted to take a shortcut, they would use the dining room's backyard. From the backyard, go around to the front yard to get food.
After Wanyue recorded this, Grandma Li rushed in anxiously, with a serious look on her face, "Miss, I heard from people in the courtyard that something happened to Grandma Wang?"
Wanyue saw Nanny Li and walked toward her. She hugged her and said with a choked voice: "Nanny Wang is gone. Nanny Li, you must be well."
When Grandma Li heard this, she suddenly felt a pain in her heart. The old sisters who had been together for decades were gone like this. She felt a little short of breath for a moment, and she fainted in just a moment.
Wanyue and Ying'er in the house were frightened and quickly helped Grandma Wang to the bed. Ying'er hurried out of the palace with an umbrella to ask for the doctor.
When the guards at the door saw it, they looked at each other and murmured in a low voice: "I went out to ask for the imperial doctor this early in the morning. Is there something going on in the backyard?"
The other guard smiled, but still did not forget to warn: "Let's just do our own thing."
As soon as Yinqi, who was resting in Suxin's room, got up, he saw Butler Yan standing at the door with an uneasy look on his face. Yinqi snorted at him, and Butler Yan came up to him immediately, hesitantly.
Seeing his hesitant look, Yinqi frowned and asked him: "If you have anything to do, just tell me? Why are you so coy?"
Butler Yan nodded, with a trace of regret on his face, "It was Grandma Wang who served Fujin in Xinan Pavilion and passed away this morning."
These words made Su Xin and Yin Qi in the room stunned. Su Xin asked subconsciously: "How could it be? Wasn't Grandma Wang fine yesterday? Why did she pass away overnight?"
Yinqi also didn't believe it and was worried that he had heard something wrong. But seeing Butler Yan's firm expression, he still asked in shock: "Tell me, how did Grandma Wang pass away?"
Housekeeper Yan sighed, and then explained: "Maybe it rained all night last night, and it hasn't stopped yet, causing the stone steps in the backyard of the dining room to be extremely slippery. When Grandma Wang passed by, she must have He accidentally stepped on the slippery stone steps and fell down, hitting the back of his head, which caused him to bleed to death."
It is really a pity that such a good life was lost like this. Yinqi couldn't help but regretted: "What a sudden disaster. What a good life. Butler Yan must comfort Grandma Wang's family. After all, they are also missing in our house." life."
Butler Yan quickly responded: "Your Majesty, this is natural. I will definitely make arrangements for this. Aunt Wang is Fujin's slave, and Fujin will not treat them badly."
After hearing this, Yinqi glanced at Su Xin next to him, and said with a solemn expression: "I will go to Fujin's room first and take a look. You, Hong Hao and Rou Jin can have breakfast together."
Su Xin blessed him with blessings and replied: "I understand, Your Majesty, hurry over and comfort Fujin. After I finish my work here, I will rush over as soon as possible."
In Xinuan Pavilion, Yue Wen, who had sent Hong Sheng back to the house, couldn't help crying softly after she came back, "It's all because of the rain, otherwise Grandma Wang wouldn't have fallen on the stone steps because of the slippery road."
A good person just disappeared under her nose. Wanyue really didn't want to believe the fact that Grandma Wang was gone. She would rather have someone else fall on the stone steps.
Unexpectedly, after resurrecting her life, Grandma Wang would only live for two more years. Wanyue's heart was very painful. Grandma Li was also fainting and had not yet woken up, which made her feel a little isolated and helpless.
At this time, Yinqi's voice sounded at the door, "Yue'er!"
