Chapter 587 Meeting the Princess
"Granny, how is Ayi?" Madam Huo asked.
The old woman suddenly came to her senses. Although she was still curious, she dared not delay any longer and raised her hand to lead the way. "The princess drank the medicine that the master brought back from the provincial capital and took two short naps. She has finally recovered some of her energy. Madam, master, young lady and young master, please follow this old servant."
The group entered the bedroom of the Princess of Zhenbei in a grand procession.
Lin Chang'er and Wu Qingfeng had already started preparing for this room, but because Lin Chang'er was not familiar with the habits of the Princess of Zhenbei, Wu Qingfeng was also extremely busy.
Later, the task was simply handed over to Madam Huo to arrange.
Thinking that they were sisters, Lin Chang'er didn't ask any more questions afterward. It was her first time visiting after the arrangements were made.
Looking around, he thought to himself, "Madam Huo has really gone to great lengths for this younger sister."
Not to mention the furniture and decorations, even the bed curtains were made of the finest shimmering gauze.
For personal items like bedspreads and pillows, nothing is done carelessly.
Princess Zhenbei, who was resting on a pillow, sat up straight upon seeing her elder sister and extended her hand to Madam Huo, "Elder sister..."
Madam Huo hurriedly stepped forward and grasped the hand of the Princess of Zhenbei, "Ayi, are you feeling better after your nap?"
"Is there anything you're not used to? If it's you, just tell your sister, and she'll definitely find a way to take care of it for you."
Princess Zhenbei smiled and said, "It's all good, it's all good. Thank you for taking care of things for me, sister."
Madam Huo patted her younger sister's hand, "We are sisters. You used to always be the one to rush to my aid. Now that I'm out of that mess, I'll naturally take care of you too."
"Cough cough," Princess Zhenbei coughed lightly, covering her mouth with her handkerchief. "It's all because my body is useless. Otherwise, I should have helped you escape that den of wolves long ago. Now it's all good. Feng'er has been sent to a post outside the capital. Although his official position is lower, he can still protect you. With a virtuous wife by your side, your life will surely get better and better."
Hearing this, Madam Huo was delighted, and her smile became even more pronounced.
Princess Zhenbei noticed this and was happy for her sister. However, mentioning Feng'er inevitably reminded her of her own children with whom she had a shallow connection.
Over the years, she and the prince had been sending people to search, and they finally found some clues, but when they reached Linhai Town, they lost all contact with them.
Although Uncle Pei and his group had been based in the town for a long time, they still made no further progress.
Thinking of this, Princess Zhenbei felt a pang of sadness, only to suddenly remember that she was currently staying at the home of Feng'er's fiancée.
There was a little girl accompanying her older sister when she came in, so I suppose that's it. I was so engrossed in catching up with her that I forgot to greet the host, which was really impolite.
Princess Zhenbei held Madam Huo's hand and shifted her gaze to Lin Chang'er, "This must be Chang'er?"
Upon hearing this, Madam Huo lightly patted herself and said, "Look at me, I was so busy catching up with old friends that I forgot to introduce you."
He beckoned to Lin Chang'er, "Chang'er, this is the aunt that Feng'er often mentioned to you before."
Lin Chang'er stepped forward, and Madam Huo took her hand, looking at the Princess of Zhenbei, "Ayi, this is Feng'er's fiancée. Due to certain reasons, the two of them do not want to tell others for the time being. Therefore, they have only had a small engagement ceremony witnessed by their elders."
Princess Zhenbei took Lin Chang'er's hand from her sister, held it tightly, and nodded repeatedly as she looked at her. "Good, good, she's a good girl. My aunt's health is not good, and she was in a hurry on the way here, so she didn't have time to prepare a gift for our first meeting."
He took a bracelet off his wrist and put it on Lin Chang'er's hand. "This was given to me by Qingfeng's maternal grandmother when I got married. Today I'm just passing on this gift. Please don't find it offensive."
That bracelet was completely translucent and had a bluish-green hue, almost as bright as a Snow Beer bottle; it was clearly a high-quality item.
If this were in later generations, it would at least be a collector's item.
Lin Chang'er dared not complain, but felt it was too precious and dared not accept it. She wanted to return it to her, but it was tightly stuffed back into her hands.
In the end, he had no choice but to accept it, saying, "Then I shall respectfully comply."
Princess Zhenbei was pleased. She patted Lin Chang'er's hand and looked at the two children standing obediently in the center of the room. "What's this?"
Lin Chang'er said, "They are my two children. When they heard that Madam Huo and I were coming to see you, they eagerly followed us to come and visit you together."
"Little deer, little goldfish, come and greet the princess."
Little Goldfish led Gu Xiaolu forward and bowed respectfully, "Little Deer/Little Goldfish greets Your Highness."
Princess Zhenbei smiled as she looked at the two children. The room was dimly lit, and she couldn't see them clearly before, but now that they were close by, she could finally see their faces.
This glance, however, instantly stunned her...
