The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 551

Chapter 551: Recover Memory (two more updates)_4

Eunuch Qin nearly knelt down!

As a servant, how could he be related to the Empress Dowager? Wasn’t this too disrespectful?

"Carriage driver." Empress Dowager Zhuang said.

"What a handsome man!" Auntie Liu’s eyes couldn’t move away from Eunuch Qin.

Eunuch Qin clamped his legs together: He was a eunuch!

Empress Dowager Zhuang glanced at the hand that was gripping her wrist. Even in the Imperial Palace, the Emperor himself didn’t dare to touch the hem of her garment.

Auntie Liu didn’t perceive any abnormality in Empress Dowager Zhuang’s demeanor. Principally because the Empress Dowager had always appeared tough and unapproachable, everyone had long since grown accustomed to it. She was someone who appeared cold but was warm-hearted at heart!

"Aye! Lady Zhao! Auntie Huo is back!"

"Huo’s sister-in-law is back?" Lady Zhao came out of her house and indeed saw Empress Dowager Zhuang, she called into her home, "Liang, go call your grandmother, Granny Huo is back!"

"Aye!"

A kid named Liang swiftly ran out of Zhao Family’s house, returned to his own home and exclaimed, "Grandma! Granny Huo is back!"

For a moment, the whole of Bishui Alley was alerted.

Those days without Granny playing leaf cards with them were as lonely as snowfall!

A large crowd gathered around Empress Dowager Zhuang and asked her why she had gone for so long to visit her relatives. The kids at home were distraught. They saw the youngest one several times standing at the door and looking around. When asked if he missed his aunt, he said he didn’t, but his teardrops were spinning in his eye socket. His pitiful, little face broke their hearts!

The youngest one?

Empress Dowager Zhuang pondered.

The little bald kid?

Speak of the devil, Little Jingkong just happened to step out and look outside.

He stretched out his little head, his big watery eyes full of innocence.

He didn’t know what had happened in the alley, why was everyone gathering outside?

Then he saw a figure emerging from the crowd.

It was his aunt.

Little Jingkong’s eyes lit up. He was about to call out to his aunt but perhaps he remembered something, his little mouth puckered and he turned around and scurried back into the house!

Lady Zhao quickly said: "Alright, alright, go comfort him, we’ll call you for cards another day."

Empress Dowager was almost escorted by the crowd up to her front door.

Soon, a small hawk also flew down from the roof. _{freewebnσvel.cѳm}

She didn’t notice it by looking, but rather she was supposed to have known it.

"You... You’ve returned?" Lady Yao didn’t know how to address her or why she was here, Lady Yao felt somewhat apprehensive and nervous.

Empress Dowager Zhuang was gazing at a room under the porch.

Lady Yao looked back and hurriedly said, "Xiaoshun and Yanyan have gone to learn some skills and they haven’t returned yet."

Empress Dowager Zhuang then looked towards the room opposite.

Lady Yao added, "I have been cleaning your room regularly."

Her room?

Empress Dowager Zhuang patted the small hawk’s wings and the obedient hawk flew away. She herself walked into the room.

Eunuch Qin quickly steps forward, preceding her to push the door open.

It was dark now, and no lamps were lit in the room. However, with its south-north position, it was possible to see that it was a decent room, just a little small. It was even smaller than the Phoenix bed in Renshou Palace.

Eunuch Qin was heartbroken, did the Empress Dowager live in such a small place all this time?

Yet, Empress Dowager Zhuang didn’t dislike this place. Her fingertips touched the peeled-off paint on the furniture. Familiarity surged from her fingertips and spread throughout her body.

Little Jingkong locked himself in a room. After waiting for a long time and not seeing his aunt come to comfort him, he feared that she might have left again. He quickly opened a crack in the western room’s door, stretched his little head out, and stared out anxiously.
