Yu Xiaoxiao brushed up her attribute values for a while as usual, then went to the space to collect and plant the grain that needed to be harvested. After finishing her work, she cooked the broth in the space and ate it with the leftover steamed buns.
Then, he lay down on his own bed with his eyes closed and practiced internal energy.
In the middle of the night, Yu Xiaoxiao heard some sparse sounds in the yard, so she used her mental energy to check, and it turned out to be the old grandma.
Looking very pitiful, the hunched old grandma was suppressing her coughs while drinking cold water. Take a look, and you feel a bit like a horror movie.
Yu Xiaoxiao didn't want to care at first, but when she closed her eyes, her mind was filled with those poor helpless old people, and she suddenly felt some sympathy. She was also an old person.
Although she has never experienced that kind of powerlessness, the old people around her who couldn't control their hands and feet made her remember it particularly fresh.
I don't know when she started to be more and more afraid of old age. She didn't want to experience the inability to control herself, and she didn't want to experience the lack of dignity in old age.
She finally relented.
He stood up with a sigh and went to the space to steam a pot of steamed buns. After they were completely cool, he went out with two steamed buns.
Fortunately, the flow rate of time in space is different from that of time outside. Otherwise, Yu Xiaoxiao would really not be able to do it for a while.
As Yu Xiaoxiao opened the door, the old woman was startled and subconsciously wanted to escape back into the house.
Yu Xiaoxiao's movements paused for a moment, and then returned to normal, pretending to ask: "Who is there?"
The moonlight was not very bright, making it difficult to see her face. The old nanny finally recovered from the fright. Her movements were already very gentle, but she still woke up the new palace maid. She was helpless but very calm. Prepare for the abuse and beatings that follow.
I just don’t know how long I can last. If I die, what will the child do?
She has experienced too many such things and has long been numb. But she is also a human being. She will still hurt when she should, and her body stiffens subconsciously.
Yu Xiaoxiao was no longer affected by the light. Although the light was insufficient, she could still see clearly. She took in all the subtle expressions and movements of the old grandma, and her lips tightened for a moment.
She stood outside the door of her house and did not step forward rashly. She asked in a gentle tone: "Why aren't you sleeping? Why are you in the yard in the middle of the night?"
The old grandma did not wait for the expected beating and scolding. She was slightly in a trance, but she still heard her question.
Maybe it was because of the lack of light, maybe because Yu Xiaoxiao’s voice was too gentle, the old woman’s mind was in a trance for a moment, and she chose to tell the truth: “To make the girl laugh, I’m really hungry in my belly, and I can’t sleep without thinking about it. Drink some water to satisfy your hunger."
Yu Xiaoxiao continued to speak calmly: "I see, if you don't mind it, I'll leave two steamed buns here uneaten, and I'll make do with it."
The old grandma raised her eyes and looked at the dark figure standing in front of the door, and didn't speak for a long time.
Yu Xiaoxiao pretended to retreat to the house, then came out after a while, stuffed the two steamed buns she had prepared for her, and then turned around and went back to the house, leaving only one sentence: "Mommy, it's better to go to bed early."
There was a touch of emotion in the old mama's cloudy eyes. She hadn't felt any kindness in this palace for a long time.
The old grandma wiped the corners of her eyes. People shed tears easily when they get old.
She ate a steamed bun to make herself less hungry, and then put away the remaining one.
She and An'er only had one meal a day, and it was two bowls of the clearest soup. They were not full at all. Fortunately, An'er was still young and could feel full after eating a little, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to live this long.
Since all he drank was soup, he naturally became hungry quickly. No matter how small his appetite was, An'er couldn't grow up normally. Now he is five years old, but he is still as thin as a child two or three years older.
After a night of silence, Yu Xiaoxiao woke up at dawn. She looked at the sky and saw that it was still early to eat, so she continued to sleep.
He didn't get up until it was time to eat and went to eat.
When she came back from eating, she hid a steamed bun for the old nanny and stopped talking to them.
She thought she just didn't want to take care of children.
For half a month, she basically stayed at home. Except for going out to eat at meal time and saving a steamed bun for the old and the young, her life was extremely peaceful.
During this period, Xiaoyue went to the tea room to look for Yu Xiaoxiao once, but after hearing that Yu Xiaoxiao was transferred to the cold palace, she never thought of looking for her again.
Yu Xiaoxiao lived her little life in the palace like this. When she got bored, she used her mental power to spy on the gossip in the palace.
Who did the emperor favor? What did the queen do? The inconspicuous palace maids had secret connections. Who made trouble for whom...
The entire palace is like a large-scale TV series, with different plots being staged every day, and the intrigues in the palace are extremely exciting.
However, with Yu Xiaoxiao's help, the old and young in the cold palace gradually improved and were no longer so weak.
The timid child An'er also began to be curious about this person who would not hit or scold him.
Half a year later, Yu Xiaoxiao felt that she had been at home for too long and it was time to get some sunshine.
She sat on the steps, holding her head in her hands and wandering away.
An'er wanted to get close to this sister who his mother said was very good, so he carefully moved towards Yu Xiaoxiao bit by bit.
Yu Xiaoxiao noticed it as soon as An'er moved, but she didn't expose it because she was indeed a little bored.
The only thing she could watch during the day was the palace fights between ladies. She had seen too many of them, and it was no longer new.
An'er moved and moved, and it took a long time to get close to Yu Xiaoxiao, but the child didn't get too close. He stopped two meters away from Yu Xiaoxiao, staring at Yu Xiaoxiao quietly with his big and bright eyes, Nor spoke.
Yu Xiaoxiao didn't even move, but suddenly said: "What are you doing?"
An'er's little body trembled involuntarily, and she stepped back slightly before speaking in a low voice: "Sister, I am An'er."
Yu Xiaoxiao's lips curled up slightly, and she suddenly became interested: "Why do you call me sister? I'm not your sister."
Yu Xiaoxiao's smile was a bit evil. She was going to scare him. Who told him that such a big kid would play tricks on her?
An'er seemed to be frightened, like a frightened rabbit, she stayed away from Yu Xiaoxiao again, even hugged herself tightly, and begged with a trembling voice: "I was wrong, please don't hit me..."
Tsk... This change of topic is really unprofessional.
However, Yu Xiaoxiao continued to act with An'er, her voice eager to comfort him: "Don't be afraid, I won't hit you."
However, Yu Xiaoxiao's body did not move.
Therefore, An'er, who was waiting for Yu Xiaoxiao to relent and come to comfort her, was left alone. She looked up a little surprised and saw that Yu Xiaoxiao was still in the same motionless posture.
