433: Two-faced Couple (1)

Two-faced Couple (1)

The word "great-grandsons" petrified the Empress Dowager on the spot!

When Su Xiaoxiao told the Empress Dowager the story of that rich family, she could tell that someone in the Nanyang Manor had survived.

However, Su Xiaoxiao didn't reveal who had survived.

The Empress Dowager guessed everyone in the Nanyang Prince's Mansion, but she never expected it to be her little great-grandsons.

There were even three of them!

"Isn't it just one?" she asked blankly.

Su Xiaoxiao helped the Empress Dowager into the house.

"I'm guarding outside the door." The eunuch in charge suppressed his shock.

Su Xiaoxiao closed the door.

The Empress Dowager could no longer hide her excitement.

She grabbed Su Xiaoxiao's hand with trembling hands. "Whose… whose flesh and blood is it?"

Her great-grandsons belonged to the princess. The Nanyang Prince's Mansion had two princesses.

Su Xiaoxiao said, "The young princess's."

The Empress Dowager's eyes were wet. "It's Min'er! Min'er… the last time I saw her… she was still a child… She's been weak since she was young… She doesn't return to the capital often…"

In the blink of an eye, Min'er's sons were already so old.

The Empress Dowager was no longer lifeless. Her eyes were shining with joy and tears of excitement.

She walked over shakily and knelt down to hug the three children.

She was already exhausted. It was a miracle that she didn't fall.

She hugged them tightly as if she was hugging her last attachment to the world.

Hot tears welled up in her eyes and rolled down her face.

The three little ones were only a little confused.

They blinked their big black eyes, not understanding what was wrong with this old woman.

Xiaohu said, "Grandma, you're hugging me so tightly. I can't move."

When the Empress Dowager heard the children's voices, she realized that she had lost her composure and quickly let go of them reluctantly.

She took out a handkerchief and wiped her tears. She touched the faces of the three of them one by one and choked. "Did Great-Grandmother hurt you?"

The three of them shook their heads.

Dahu tilted his head. "Why are you crying?"

Erhu also asked, "Are you very sad?"

The Empress Dowager's tears fell uncontrollably.

As she wiped her tears, she smiled and choked. "Great-grandmother isn't sad. Great-grandmother is happy."

Xiaohu scratched his head and asked, "What is Great-grandmother?"

The title they had heard the most was Great-Grandma. They were very unfamiliar with the title of Great-grandmother and did not know what it meant.

The Empress Dowager did not know how to explain it to the little fellows.

Su Xiaoxiao said, "It's someone who dotes on you as much as Great-grandma."

The three of them nodded and obediently addressed her Great-grandmother.

The Empress Dowager's heart almost melted.

No one could imagine how she had endured all these years. At this moment, her heart finally did not hurt so much…

The Empress Dowager stroked the heads of the three of them. "Good, so obedient!"

Su Xiaoxiao helped the Empress Dowager up to sit on a chair.

The Empress Dowager looked around. "Where's Min'er?"

"Mother, sit too!" Dahu moved a small stool over and placed it beside Su Xiaoxiao.

The Empress Dowager was stunned again.

Xiaohu also moved a stool over. "Sit on Xiaohu's! Don't sit on Dahu's!"

Xiaohu was fighting for favor all the time.

The Empress Dowager looked at Su Xiaoxiao in disbelief.

Su Xiaoxiao said nothing.

The Empress Dowager understood at once.

Sorrow came from her heart. She said with a trembling voice, "Is it that Min'er… she's already…"

"Yes." Su Xiaoxiao's expression was calm.

The three little ones ran over and snuggled into her arms, letting her touch their heads.

She touched them one by one and the three little ones shook their heads happily!

She said softly, "It's a long story. I'll tell the Empress Dowager in detail when we return to the palace."

The Empress Dowager understood everything.

Her Min'er was no longer around…

Her heart felt like it was being cut by a knife.

The three little ones walked over and looked at her seriously.

Dahu said, "Great-grandmother, do you want to pat our heads too?"

The Empress Dowager sobbed.

Dahu stretched his little head in front of her. "I'll let you touch me. Don't cry."

Erhu and Xiaohu also stuck their heads out for her to touch.

The Empress Dowager looked at the three cute and obedient children and finally broke free from the huge grief and despair.2

She touched their round heads and smiled through her tears. "Alright, Great-Grandmother won't cry anymore."

Outside the door, the eunuch in charge secretly wiped his tears.

The Empress Dowager had long been disheartened all these years. If not for the Imperial Hospital and palace servants watching her closely, she would have long been buried.

Now, there was finally a glimmer of hope.

The Empress Dowager had the happiest day in ten years. She was not so sad even when she went to light the lamp for the Nanyang King's family.
