"What? A family member is here?" Gu Qingtong was taken aback, happy and curious at the same time, while taking off the handkerchief to wipe his hands, he hurriedly asked, "Can you tell which relative it is?"
"No, Chief Qin is just urging you to go over and have a look." The little eunuch shook his head and said.
"Okay, I'll go right away," Gu Qingtong immediately walked out of the small kitchen, went to the bedroom, saw that Meiya was still asleep, and came out lightly, and ordered the maid who was waiting outside the hall, "When the empress wakes up, serve the empress to drink the soup and medicine."
"Yes, this servant has remembered." The maid hurriedly bowed and said.
Only then did Gu Qingtong leave the palace in peace.
…
Meiya slept for another half an hour before waking up. Before she opened her eyes, she frowned and rubbed her waist with her hands while muttering: "Qingtong, my waist is so sore..."
"Ma'am, look who's here." As soon as Meiya finished speaking, Gu Qingtong, who had been waiting by the bed, hurriedly said. When she said this, she was a little excited and her voice trembled.
"Who?" Meiya opened her eyes while yawning, through a layer of red curtains, Meiya vaguely saw two people sitting in front of the bed, one was naturally Gu Qingtong, the other...
"Grandpa Gu!" After seeing that face clearly, Meiya's eyes immediately got wet, and she cried when she spoke again, "Grandpa Gu, you... when did you come?"
"Qingtong, go and support me! Don't stretch the girl's waist!" Gu Changlin frowned when he saw Meiya propping up her hands and was about to sit up, and told Gu Qingtong in a hurry.
"Yes," Gu Qingtong opened the curtain in a hurry, helped Meiya to sit up, then reached out to her and stuffed a soft pillow, and at the same time took out the handkerchief and handed it to Meiya, choked up, "Ma'am, Don't be like this, it's a great thing for Grandpa Gu to come, why are you still crying?"
Meiya didn't go to pick up the square handkerchief, but kept looking at Gu Changlin with teardrops. Gu Changlin felt so distressed seeing her like this, so he sat on the edge of the bed and stretched out his hand to Meiya. She smiled at Mei Ya with her left hand, "Isn't it just a year since I saw you? Why does the little girl have the problem of crying too much?"
"Wow!" As soon as Gu Changlin said this, Meiya couldn't help it anymore, and suddenly hugged Gu Changlin, and then burst into tears, which only attracted the attention of the palace people, and Gu Qingtong was so busy that the palace people retreated. , She didn't stay in the room, and hurried to the kitchen to help Xiao An prepare meals.
"Madam is awake?" Seeing her coming in with red eyes, Xiao An asked in a low voice.
"Well, I'm awake," Gu Qingtong wiped the corners of his eyes, leaned over to help Xiao An's wash the vegetables, and choked up, "When Madam saw Grandpa Gu, she couldn't stop crying, it hurts my heart."
"Grandpa Gu loves Madam the most, and Madam has always taken care of Grandpa Gu as her own grandfather. It is natural for them to have deep feelings," Xiao An said, wiping the corners of her eyes, "Grandpa Gu and Taifu Ding originally He didn't want to come to the capital, but seeing that his wife is about to give birth, the old man is still worried, so he still came."
"That's right, the two old men were afraid that the Lord and Madam would be worried about them, so they insisted on letting General Xiao Kong keep everything a secret. We will only find out when we arrive in the capital." Gu Qingtong also said.
"That's right, if Madam knew about it in advance, I'm afraid I'd have to start eating and sleeping half a month in advance, and I'd be uneasy." Xiao An said with a smile, while adding, "Let's move more quickly, and Taifu Ding and Mr. Chen will wait They'll come over for dinner, too."
"Yeah, Sister An said yes." Gu Qingtong nodded hurriedly.
…
In the sleeping hall.
Meiya lay in Gu Changlin's arms and cried for a long time and finally stopped. She didn't feel ashamed, and let Gu Changlin bring tea for herself. Even more worried: "Drink slowly, don't choke."
