The old concubine is over 80 years old this year. Because of her age and poor health, she lives in a nursing home all year round and rarely goes out or sees outsiders.

Except for the major celebrations every year, the old princess basically does not appear in public.

After Yu Xiaowan came back this time, she was going to visit her grandmother.

After Shen Rui found out, she volunteered and ran over early in the morning to act as a flower protector and accompanied Yu Xiaowan.

Because of Shen Rui's identity and status, the royal family could not refuse, even though Yu Xiaowan and Eddie already had a marriage contract, but the royal family still pretended not to see it, acquiescing that Shen Rui accompanied Yu Xiaowan to the past.

Later, I heard that Eddie Lun did not go to find his fiancée, Princess Yi Na, but instead went to find He Shenhe, the eldest lady of the He family. The members of the royal family were inexplicably relieved.

People on both sides are not easy to offend!

Shen Rui arrived at the palace early in the morning, and then accompanied Yu Xiaowan to the nursing home.

As soon as he entered the gate of the nursing home, Shen Rui saw the yard full of flowers.

Yu Xiaowan explained: "Grandma's favorite is these flowers. She said that seeing these flowers is like seeing hope. Grandpa had four princesses in total, and the other three have passed away. Only the last one is left. Yes. This princess is also the princess who gave birth to my father, so she has a very high status in the entire royal family. She is also my biological grandmother."

Shen Rui nodded and said, "Your royal family is indeed different."

"Yes. In our country, only the royal family still retains the polygamy system. Normally, a king can have four princesses, the eldest princess and three younger princesses. My mother is the younger princess, so the right to speak in the royal family is not counted. It is very big. It is my mother's greatest ability to find me a marriage partner of similar age." Yu Xiaowan looked at the scenery outside the car and said softly: "The sisters born to other little princesses, the marriage partners , It’s horrible. We are all sisters, and seeing them suffer makes me feel uncomfortable. So, when they ask me for help, I help as much as I can.”

"Is this why you were always too busy to attend class some time ago?" Shen Rui asked.

"Yes." Yu Xiaowan nodded, sighed, and said, "It's a pity that I don't have much money, or I can't give them too much money. Sometimes it's just a temporary help. By the way, Thank you for willing to accompany me to visit grandma so early."

"No, I used to get up very early, and I'm used to it." Shen Rui replied with a smile: "I'm also very happy to be able to visit my grandmother with you."

"When you arrive, please don't mind if grandma says something strange." Yu Xiaowan continued: "After all, the old man is old, his memory is not very good, and his speech is a bit confusing."

"No." Shen Rui replied with a smile.

The two quickly walked into the inner door of the nursing home.

An arched corridor extended in all directions, and the two walked side by side under this corridor, followed by four followers.

This is the E royal family, the standard equipment for princesses.

The two of them stopped at the door of a very warm room, and someone went in to report immediately, and came out after a while to salute and said, "Princess Yina, young master of the He family, the princess welcomes you."

Shen Rui nodded politely, and followed Yu Xiaowan in.

Pushing open the door, a dark red-based carpet is embroidered with pure white cloud patterns, dark brown furniture, dark golden wallpaper, and curtains that are blown slowly by the wind.

There was also an old man in a wheelchair.

"Grandmother, open the window so early, be careful of the cold." Yu Xiaowan greeted in E language, walked over quickly, and introduced: "Grandma, I'm Yi Na, I'm here to see you! This is the He family The eldest young master, He Shenrui."

The old concubine just raised her eyelids lightly, glanced at Yu Xiaowan, and then slowly turned her head to look in He Chenrui's direction.

He Chenrui squatted down and said hello: "Hi, Princess, I'm He Chenrui."

The old concubine stared at He Chenrui for a long time, then opened her mouth slightly and said, "It's really pretty, just like the flowers outside."

Shen Rui was not angry because of what the old concubine said, and Yu Xiaowan was relieved.

But good-looking people are actually very taboo about others talking about their appearance.

"Does the princess like it?" Shen Rui asked with a smile.

"I like it." The old princess nodded.

After finishing speaking, the old princess turned her head to look at the blooming flowers outside the window, and fell into silence again.

Yu Xiaowan tried to continue talking to the old concubine, but Shen Rui shook her head at her, and then moved two chairs, one for each of them, to sit beside the old concubine, watching the flowers outside the window with her.

The windows were wide open and the wind was blowing hard.

The fragrance of flowers in the yard blows into the house, creating a whirlwind.

After a while, Shen Rui heard even breathing from the chair next to him.

Shen Rui made a silent gesture to Yu Xiaowan, tiptoely took a blanket from the side, gently covered the old concubine's body, and then gently pulled Yu Xiaowan out of the room.

"I'm sorry, grandma is getting old, her energy is low, and she has less and less waking time." Yu Xiaowan said in a low voice, "I've neglected you."

"Don't blame yourself for what you don't have. Take a breath of fresh air in the morning, enjoy the beautiful flowers, and most importantly, have someone by your side. I think everything is beautiful." Shen Rui shook his head and said: "In my eyes, It’s all so beautiful.”

Yu Xiaowan smiled, and then said: "You came here with me, what should Xiaohe do?"

"Oh, I have already asked Joel to prepare breakfast for Xiaohe. I think he must be very happy to do this job." Shen Rui said humorously: "Does this count as my helping him?"

Yu Xiaowan burst out laughing: "Didn't you say that no one can easily pursue Xiaohe?"

"Well, but if someone takes care of Xiaohe for me, I can still allow it." Shen Rui replied humorously.

Yu Xiaowan suddenly laughed and leaned back.

Only in front of Shen Rui would she show such a frank side.

In front of others, she will always be a noble and dignified princess. Only in front of familiar people, will she reveal her true temperament and innocence that belonged to her age.

"Every time I come back, I will come here to visit my grandmother. Every time I come, I will find that my grandmother is older than last time. No matter who it is, it seems that no one can escape this fate." Yu Xiaowan said in a low voice: "Grandfather After the death of the other three princesses, my grandmother's spirit has deteriorated day by day. Now, the time for waking up is getting less and less, and I am worried that it won't last long."
