“Then I’ll go prepare breakfast for you, Eldest Young Master. Do you want to have your meal here or go to Old Madam’s place? The Old Madam also just got up and has not eaten.”
“I’ll go find great- grandma.” As Gu Lin spoke, he put down the book in his hand and jumped off his seat. He held Cui’er’s hand and walked toward Hexiang Garden.
When Gu Lin arrived at the Hexiang Garden, the old Madam just happened to have breakfast in her courtyard.
As soon as Lil e Cui opened the curtain, Gu Lin heard the Old Madam’s reluctant voice coming from the room.
“Why is Xue’er not here? She promised that she would be back before dark, but why isn’t she back when it’s already dawn?” The more Madam Qi spoke, the more worried she became. Her voice was filled with fear and uneasiness. “Does Xue’er not want me anymore? I’m very obedient…”
Nanny Sheng was more uneasy than anyone else when she saw the reluctance on the Old Madam’s face. She was so worried that she did not know how to comfort the Old Madam.
Fortunately, Gu Lin flashed a bright smile at Madam Qi the moment he walked in. He walked to her side and said, “Great-grandmother, mother went to prepare a New Year’s gift for you, so she hasn’t returned. Before mother comes back, can I accompany you? ‘
Seeing that Gu Lin had sat down beside her, Madam Qi reached out to hold his hand. “Really? Then what kind of gift would take such a long time to prepare? I miss her, and I want to see her now.”
“Old Madam, it’s rare for the Eldest Miss to come back to spend the new year with us. Of course, she would like to prepare a good gift for us. This is the Eldest Miss’s kind intentions. Old Madam, you can’t disappoint her kind intentions.” Nanny Sheng quickly went along with Gu Lin’s words.
Madam Qi was clearly moved by their words. She suppressed her frustration and said weakly, “But I want to see her.”
“I also want to see mother. Great- grandma, let’s have a competition, okay?
We’ll see who can endure longer. When the time comes, the winner will get the biggesr gift that mother prepares, okay?” Gu Lin was not anxious at all and continued to coax Madam Qi patiently.
After a moment of hesitation, Madam Qi finally nodded and agreed.
Gu Lin was finally satisfied. He picked up a pair of chopsticks and placed them in Madam Qi’s hands. “Great-grandma, let’s have breakfast first, okay? I’m so hungry.”
Hearing that Gu Lin was hungry, Madam Qi immediately became nervous. She quickly picked up the food on the table and put it into Gu Lin’s bowl. “Eat, Lil t
Lin. Eat more. Eat more and grow taller.”
Gu Lin nodded and did not forget to put food in Madam Qi’s bowl.
Nanny Sheng could not help but sigh in relief when she saw that.
“Nanny, Eldest Young Master is indeed the most intelligent. Not only can he take care of himself, he can also coax his younger brother and younger sister and the Old Madam.” Cui ‘er came to Nanny Sheng’s side and said to Gu Lin with a sigh.
“The Eldest Young Master is indeed not like an ordinary child. He is too sensible and obedient. There was a saying that crying children would get candy, and with the Eldest Young Master’s personality, he was the most easily taken advantage of. It’s a good thing that the Eldest Miss is always fair and never ignores his feelings.” As she spoke, Nanny Sheng stole a glance at Madam Qi and Gu Lin. Seeing that they were focused on eating, she lowered her voice and asked Cui’er, “Is the Eldest Miss still not back? ‘
“It’s a good thing that Master Ji Yan sent news that His Royal Highness has woken up. She should be back soon,” Cui’er said with a happy expression..
