“Huihui, Xinxin, since you’ve mentioned this, aunty will need your help,” Empress Xue said. Yesterday, aunt even asked grandmother to go to chunnan city with her. Grandmother said she couldn’t bear to leave you girls!”
Grandma Gu was taken aback and turned to look at the Empress Dowager. “Mother, Chinan city is quite good. Old Xiao said that boss has also built a mansion there, so you can go over to have some fun. The weather was good that day. We went there together last spring when the snow melted. The weather there was really good and very warm.”
Zhang Shi also said,”grandmother, the child’s father said that it’s like spring all year round there, so the crops grow well.” I want to go too. Why don’t I bring the child with me?”
Gu Xin nodded, ” that’s right. Great-grandma. If you can’t bear to leave us, then we’ll accompany you!”
The Grand Empress Dowager was a little moved as she looked at her great-grandchildren and said, Xin Xin, sisi, you all have things to do. Won’t accompanying an old woman like me delay your work? ”
Gu Xin replied without hesitation,’it’s a big deal to accompany great-grandma. Sisi and I can go for half a month each! It’s fine as long as one of us is here. Sister and silly can also go for half a month each. Bear with him, it’s just writing some novels and reading some enlightenment books, it’s the same anywhere. Not to mention little seven, little eight, little nine, little ten and the rest.”
“Mother, why don’t we do this? I’ll ask the three ladies from the boss’s family to bring the children along to accompany you. You can come back when you don’t want to play. Brother Chuan and I can handle the Family Matters. Xinxin is right, we only need two of them to help us.”
great-grandma, ” Gu Hui continued, ” grandfather gave me and ah ze a month’s holiday. We can go out and play for a month. A ‘ze and I will go with you. We will take a boat to Jin nanguo and the goddess Kingdom. We’ll go to Princess Henan’s mine and pick the ores ourselves. They went to the goddess Kingdom to dig for gold. Anyway, the weather there is pretty good.”
Gu Nian felt that it was good for the old lady to go out more often. The old lady was already over 70 years old. According to the books, she had lived for more than 90 years. This meant that she was in good health. Since she was in good health, she should go out and see the world!
She had sacrificed too much for the great Zhou Dynasty in her life, so it was time for her to live for herself.
Therefore, Gu Nian also joined in the persuasion.
After being persuaded by her daughters-in-law, granddaughters-in-law, and great-grandchildren for a long time, the Grand Empress Dowager agreed.
She wanted to go, but she was afraid that she would be a burden to the children because of her old age. She tried her best to live a few more years to see the birth of her great-great-grandson, so she usually cherished herself very much.
But with everyone’s persuasion, she also started to play. She remembered the last time she went out to play without any scruples. It was fifty years ago. At that time, she had not yet married. She was still by her father’s side, accompanying great ancestor to conquer the world. At that time, she rode her horse on the battlefield, so free and unrestrained.
Alright, go!
With so many grandchildren accompanying him, he should just go!
During lunch, the family started to discuss who would go to chunnan city and who would stay.
Gu si and Huo Yanyu would go first. Gu Nian and Gu Xin would be replaced after half a month.
Gu en, Gu Ren, and the other brothers would all go, along with Gu Xiaoqi, Gu Xiaoba, and little Ming Yue, who were more than one year old.
Madam Zhang’s child was fed by Madam yang. She had no milk left, so she accompanied her.
There were only Gu shouxin and his wife, Gu Laosi and his wife, and the four babies left in the house. Grandpa and Grandma Gu had to accompany the Grand Empress Dowager first.
