Chapter 843 - 843 Comforting Her
Guoguo immediately pointed at the corner of her mouth with her little finger when she heard an ulcer. She had not forgotten the last time she had an ulcer. She didn’t even want to open her mouth when she had to eat.
“Guoguo is young, but she has a good memory,” Mingyu said happily.
“When a lesson is profound, everyone will learn.” Zhou Ying smiled.
After that, the two of them chatted for a while. Zhuangzhuang and Guoguo made no more noise because they were eating their snacks.
Soon, the streets were filled with shouts, cheers, and orderly footsteps.
Mingyu’s expression immediately turned solemn. This was the sound of an expedition.
“Let’s go. I’ll accompany you to see Brother Zhou off,” Zhou Ying said as she put Guoguo down.
“No need. Sending off can only make people sad. Let’s go into the palace later.” Mingyu shook her head.
Zhou Ying didn’t try to persuade her anymore. She checked the fruits that Niu Lirong had prepared, and after confirming that there were no problems, she changed Guoguo’s clothes before heading into the palace.
The two of them first went to the Empress Dowager’s place to deliver some fruits.
However, the Empress Dowager was suffering from the summer heat and did not have much energy. The two of them politely exchanged a few words before leaving.
They heard the Eldest Princess and the First Prince’s cries as soon as they entered the Phoenix Palace. Zhou Ying and Mingyu looked at each other and immediately carried their kids into the place.
They saw the First Prince and the Eldest Princess sitting on a sleeping mat and crying. Their nanny was comforting them softly while Gu Wanning leaned on the bed and wiped her tears.
“Nannan, what’s wrong with Yangyang? Why is she crying? Let Auntie take a look.” Mingyu went forward and put Zhuangzhuang down.
When the two children saw who had come, they immediately stopped crying. They didn’t say anything and looked at them curiously.
Especially Yangyang. She looked curiously at Zhuangzhuang and Guoguo with her big, bright eyes and waved at them happily.
“Auntie, Guoguo.” After Nannan greeted Mingyu, her eyes lit up when she saw Zhou Ying enter.
“We’re here to see you again, our cute Nannan. Tell me, why are you crying? Who made our little princess unhappy?” Zhou Ying asked.
She asked Niu Lirong to pass the fruit to Chunxi. “Cut the watermelons. It will chill us down.”
“Yes, Madam.” After saying that, Chunxi went down with the fruits.
“Guoguo, go play with Sister Nannan and Brother Yangyang.” Zhou Ying put Guoguo down.
“Playing,” Guoguo responded and ran toward Nannan.
When Nan Nan saw Guoguo, she immediately pulled her along to pile up the building blocks.
“You’re here.” Gu Wanning walked over.
After the two greeted her, Mingyu said, “I came to see you because I thought you would be busy. I didn’t expect you to be wiping your tears.”
Zhou Ying said, “You are now the mistress of the harem. After crying, you should be strong to take care of all the affairs in the palace. It will also make the Emperor and the Empress Dowager feel at ease.”
Gu Wanning knew that they were here to comfort her, and she nodded. “Thank you. I’ll get myself together as soon as possible.”
“That’s right. When a woman should be gentle like water, she should be gentle like water.
“However, when it’s time to be strong, you must be as strong as a man. This is how we women should live.” Zhou Ying added.
Ming Yu nodded repeatedly. “That’s right. Look at Huaiming. We’ve been married for over a year, but he hasn’t even been home for three months.
“If you need anything in the future, let us know as soon as possible. The two of us will definitely help out.
“If we can’t help out, my mother and the other aunts are still here. In any case, we won’t let you be in a difficult position..”
