Chapter 237 The Queen Mother can hardly laugh anymore
Lihua's words immediately convinced Yuchi Gong, and he immediately changed his mind and solemnly supported: "Go ahead, my beloved concubine, the queen mother depends on you."
Lihua nodded seriously: "Look, I will definitely fulfill my mission."
After saying this, he bowed and walked towards the main hall without stopping, as if any delay would be a disservice to the Queen Mother.
Yuchi Gong stopped where he was and watched the people leave. He thought to himself, Queen Mother, Queen Mother, it’s not that I won’t help you, but what the little thief said makes too much sense.
He believed that the little thief was measured and would stay within the limit of the Queen Mother's patience.
It’s just this limit...
Yuchi Gong weighed it and found that it might be very tiring for his lazy mother.
But what can be done? Only the responsible and cunning little thief in this palace can control his mother.
Yuchi Gong began to wonder, how did the little thief manage to make his mother docile?
He had visited the Queen Mother earlier and only asked a few cursory questions to Nanny Qin, but had no time to inquire in detail about what happened.
Therefore, he only knew that Lihua did everything by herself, was so busy that she barely drank a few sips of water, and ate her lunch in a hurry. It was not until the Queen Mother took a nap that she had some free time.
Yuchi Gong thought to himself that the little thief must have confused his mother with so many colorful intestines.
He thought about the scene between the two of them and couldn't help but laugh.
Yuchi looked respectfully at the main hall, turned around and strode away from Zhuangning Palace.
The Queen Mother was about to wake up, and he had to go back, otherwise the Queen Mother asked him for help, and Yuchi Gong didn't know if he would be so cruel.
This side of the main hall of Zhuangning Palace.
Nanny Qin felt very at ease guarding the Queen Mother, even as she fell asleep.
A person from the palace came quietly to report that he accidentally ran into the emperor and Lihua walking in the inner courtyard.
The palace man only had a quick glance and did not dare to look directly at Tianyan, but the two seemed to be talking and laughing and getting along harmoniously.
It's not surprising that the palace people found out late. There were very few people walking around during the lunch break, and most of them went to work in the Qingliangshe.
When Nanny Qin heard this, she immediately became energetic.
The emperor had been here before and left soon after seeing the Queen Mother sleeping soundly.
Nanny Qin didn't think much about it at the time. She didn't know she was looking for Lihua, otherwise she would have to find an excuse to go take a look no matter what.
At that time, Nanny Qin hurriedly asked the palace people to guard the Queen Mother, while she walked out of the main hall and walked in the direction pointed by the palace people, hoping to bump into her by chance.
We must know the emperor's true attitude towards Lihua and the way the two get along in private. This was all inferred by the Queen Mother and Aunt Qin through clues.
To put it bluntly, speculation is only speculation, and it is not as real as seeing it with one's own eyes.
The Queen Mother was extremely concerned about this matter. She felt empty in her heart and always had doubts. She could not imagine the emperor truly being attracted to his concubine.
Nanny Qin was very sorry that the Queen Mother was taking a lunch break, so she had to see it in person so that she could talk to the Queen Mother later.
Unexpectedly, halfway through, I met Lihua coming back.
Nanny Qin was stunned: "Where is Master Wu going?"
I looked behind Lihua again and found that there was no emperor. I was a little confused.
Lihua passed by in a hurry: "Let's go to the main hall, the Queen Mother's lunch break is here, it's time to do the next thing."
"Oh..." When Nanny Qin heard the word Queen Mother, she subconsciously followed her a few steps, thinking about how to ask Lihua if she was walking with the emperor just now.
But suddenly he felt something was wrong, so he rushed forward and asked in surprise: "What's the next item that you haven't finished today?"
Lihua kept walking: "No, it's early."
Aunt Qin was confused: "Didn't Master Wu say before..."
She recalled her memories and suddenly realized that Lihua had indeed never said that it was over for today.
When I persuaded the Queen Mother to take a bath later, she only answered what she had to do during the lunch break, and did not say what she would do after that.
Lihua paused and stopped to look at her: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with grandma?"
Aunt Qin quickly waved her hand: "No, no more."
Seeing Lihua's posture, she immediately knew that the Queen Mother would continue to be tired today.
So there was no thought of watching the excitement, and all that was left was to worry about the Queen Mother.
Nanny Qin thought Amitabha in her heart. It was the first time she saw such a serious master, and she just prayed that the Queen Mother could hold on.
After all, she might not speak for the Queen Mother because it is too therapeutic.
The Queen Mother herself always thought that she was done for the day, and no matter how tired she was, she would never be as tired as in the morning.
When she was woken up from a deep sleep, she sat up in a daze for a long time and let someone wipe her face and hands for her, as if she hadn't slept enough.
Lihua smiled and asked: "Empress Dowager, how did you sleep?"
The Queen Mother turned around and realized that Lihua and the people from Zhuangning Palace had arrived neatly.
She said with the sleepiness of just waking up: "Girl Wu, you are here too. The Ai family has not slept so deeply for a long time."
The Queen Mother has not thought about why Lihua is here. She only feels that she is considerate and waiting here for her to wake up. She is a filial piety and an honest child.
When Pear Blossom waved, Zhichun came over with fruits and desserts, and said softly to her: "Empress Dowager, didn't you say you didn't have enough at lunch? Now is the time to have a snack."
The Queen Mother sobered up for a while, and her whole body was filled with joy. She thought that this girl was good-looking, comfortable to look at, and very particular about her work. She was a good child.
Although I only gave her half a bowl of porridge in the morning and she wasn't allowed to eat enough for lunch, she kept her promise and she ate all the dishes she didn't like.
When the Queen Mother smelled the aroma of food, her appetite was fully aroused, and she found that she was a little hungry..br>
When she saw the cut fruit plate and dessert again, the Queen Mother was completely awake.
The pastry was of a style she had never seen before, and it was so beautiful.
It’s also delicious to eat.
After eating a soft and delicate dessert, the Queen Mother felt comfortable both physically and mentally, but she still had more to say. She praised Zhichun repeatedly for her good craftsmanship, and no longer had the time to care about Zhichun's irritating words in the morning.
Zhichun started preparing the dessert according to Lihua's instructions while the Queen Mother was having lunch.
As for the recipe, Lihua taught Zhichun how to make it.
The Queen Mother was in a happy mood, with a smile on her face: "Girl Wu, you know a lot of new things. This dessert is really good, but the portion is too small, not enough for Aijia to eat."
Lihua smiled and said: "Empress Dowager, Zhichun has prepared more than one portion. If you want to eat, there will be more later. I wonder how you feel now? Are you still feeling comfortable?"
The Queen Mother was even more happy when she heard that there were desserts.
After hearing the questions behind her, she got up and walked around a few times, and found that her waist was no longer sore and her back was no longer stiff.
My body is much looser and faster than before. I don't have the groggy and tired feeling when I wake up in the past. My whole body feels great.
The main hall of Zhuangning Palace suddenly fell into a state of joy, Qiu Yan and other palace people were congratulating the Queen Mother.
Only Nanny Qin looked at the scene with a smile, knowing that soon the Queen Mother would not be able to laugh anymore.
The Queen Mother smiled from ear to ear: "Girl Wu, your method is better. I never thought it would have such good results on the first day. It's really good to hear what you said."
The Queen Mother was very happy. She felt that if she walked a few times a day and persisted for a few more days, she would be completely fine.
She patted Lihua's hand and sighed: "Girl, it wasn't hard to scare the Ai family before. Don't worry, the Ai family will be able to persevere."
