The Empress Dowager was really thinking. It was rare for her to like a little girl, and she was begging her. Moreover, seriously speaking, she really had a few ways to resolve this matter.
She was just scouting for information. Although she had lived in the palace for a long time, she did not have any estrangement with her son and daughter-in-law. She did not go to the Imperial Court to stir up trouble, so she still had the power to find someone.
Ah Yu ate two plates of pastries and finished a cup of flower tea. She also ate the digestive pills that Meatbail had secretly stuffed into her mouth before the Empress Dowager came.
The Empress Dowager glanced at Ah Yu and said, “Lass Yu, you’re the first person who dares to come and look for this Dowager so casually.”
Ah Yu did not need the Empress Dowager to remind her at all. She gave Tang Yuan a look. Tang Yuan immediately walked out and brought in the small basket that was placed outside.
“You haven’t been an official for long. You didn’t learn anything else, but you learned a trick to curry favor?” The Empress Dowager said in a joking tone, but she didn’t look at the things in the basket.
Ah Yu did not refute. She only took the small basket and opened it. Inside was a ceramic cup with a lid.
As soon as she lifted the lid, the fragrance locked inside could not wait to come out. Everyone present smelled it and found it fragrant.
“What is this?” The Empress Dowager couldn’t help but sit up straight and hurriedly ask, “How is it made?”
Ah Yu smiled and said, “This? My Grandma specially made it. She said that my body is weak, and if 1 eat too much meat, I’ll easily grow fat. She doesn’t want me to be laughed at by those who don’t know, so she made this soup for me. 1 don’t know how she made it, but it’s very delicious. 1 can drink it every few days.”
When Ah Yu said this, the Empress Dowager’s gaze had already changed. When she heard the words “laughed at by those who don’t know”, the Empress Dowager could not sit still anymore.
She walked in front of Ah Yu in a few steps. Without waiting for Ah Yu to ask, she took the soup bowl from All Yu’s hand and drank it in a big gulp. She couldn’t care less if it was hot, let alone let someone test it for poison first.
“Empress Dowager!”
“Royal Mother!”
Ah Yu and Empress Qin were shocked, afraid that the old lady would choke from drinking too quickly.
There were still some side food added in the soup that could not be completely cleaned. Old Madam Wang had specially kept them for All Yu to eat on the way to the palace so that she would not be hungry.
However, Ah Yu was not in the mood to eat on the way. Later on, she felt that giving this to the Empress Dowager might have a good effect.
The effect was simply outstanding.
“Empress Dowager, are you alright?” Ah Yu tilted her head to look at the Empress Dowager, but she only held the soup in her mouth and did not swallow it directly.
Her expression seemed to be reminiscent, but also plaintive. In the end, it turned calm.
The Empress Dowager swallowed the soup and took a handkerchief from the maid at the side. She wiped her mouth and sat back down.
It was as if that inappropriate action just now was just an illusion.
“Lass Yu, you just said that this soup was made for you by your Grandma. Then, what’s your Grandma’s name?”
Ah Yu was really stumped. What was Grandma’s name?
It seemed that no one in the family had ever mentioned it, so she naturally would not ask for no reason.
Now that she thought about it, she did not seem to know the names of the women in the family. She knew the names of her brothers, uncles, and sisters-in-law, but she was not too sure about Mother, Aunt, and Grandma.
Ah Yu recalled carefully and said uncertainly, “Donkey… Donkey Zhang?” “Cough, cough, cough, cough!” The Empress Dowager couldn’t hold it in this time and coughed violently.
After everyone watched in fear as she coughed, the Empress Dowager waved her hand. “You’ll stay with me today. In addition, I’ll get someone to invite your Grandma to come to the palace to see me tomorrow.”
No one noticed that the way she addressed herself had changed again..
