Chapter 738: Combination

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Ah Yu slept until quarter past nine. It was also the day she was usually on duty. “Village Lord Yu, you’re awake?” A maidservant asked gently.

As soon as she finished speaking, Ah Yu turned around and sat up. She was already awake, and her hair was still hanging lazily outside.

Before she could completely wake up, she asked, “Big Sister, is my Grandma here?”

“She’s here. She arrived last night.”

“So fast?!” Ah Yu couldn’t care less. She quickly took the comb from the maidservant and casually stroked her head a few times. Her already soft hair was quickly smoothed out.

Under the dumbfounded gaze of the maidservant, she wet the face cloth with her left hand and wrung it out. She quickly wiped her neck and cheeks. Her right hand had already reached out to take the hair band beside her. She used one hand and reached behind her head, made several passes with the band, and her hair was tied up steadily and even tied into a beautiful knot.

Maidservant: !!

She couldn’t even see clearly how all of this happened.

Just as she was in a daze, All Yu had already put on her clothes, shoes, and socks. She jumped to the door and only her sweet voice could be heard. “Big Sister, please help clean up the room. 1’11 thank you later.”

With that, she was gone.

The other maid in charge of tidying up the room had just walked in. She looked at Village Lord Yu, who was already dressed neatly, and then at the bowl of noodles in the other maid’s hand. She was puzzled. “Village Lord Yu has already gotten up in advance?”

“Would you believe me if 1 said that she just woke up?”

“…” Who would believe that?

In the inner palace, the Crimson Guards did not act rashly and waited obediently outside. Ah Yu naturally did not use her movement technique to fly around.

“Elf, Elf, help me see where Grandma is?”

[She’s not far from you. We’ll be there after going through another moon gate. Kid, don’t be anxious. Your Grandma won’t be at a disadvantage no matter where she goes. Moreover, the Empress Dowager is a kind person.]

“I know. I’m afraid that Grandma will bully the Empress Dowager.”

She had finally figured it out. Grandma was usually good to everyone, but she did not have a good temper towards people around her age.

For example, Third Aunt Hu in the village. Grandma couldn’t stand her and the two of them would quarrel after three sentences.

[…] I was overthinking.

Ah Yu followed Meatball’s hint and walked through the moon gate. She saw the familiar man-made lake and the boat-shaped lake residence on the man-made lake.

When she came out, someone had already informed the Empress Dowager in advance. At this moment, someone was waiting not far away and brought All Yu over.

When Ah Yu arrived, she happened to see her Grandma sitting in front of a zither. The Empress Dowager was holding two wooden crescent-shaped objects. They were decorated with gold and jade. They were instruments that Ah Yu had never seen before.

“Lass, did you sleep well?” When the Empress Dowager saw All Yu, she waved at her with a smile. “You haven’t had breakfast yet, right? Come over and try the jade cake your Grandma made herself.”

When Ah Yu heard the words “Jade Cake”, her eyes were filled with disbelief. Her name carried the meaning of Jade!

Seeing Ah Yu’s aggrieved expression, Old Madam Wang glanced at the Empress Dowager and said casually, “Don’t listen to this old woman’s nonsense. It’s the white rice cake you usually like. Eat some with the sweet soup to fill your stomach. You still have to keep your appetite for lunch.”

Ah Yu smiled. “Alright!”

The Empress Dowager smiled and shook her head. “It’s rare to see you so considerate and gentle. I’m a little envious of this little lass.”

After the two of them finished speaking, they started playing again as if no one was around. Old Madam Wang played the zither, and an ancient and deep sound vibrated from the strings. Then, the Empress Dowager gently touched the item in her hand, producing an extremely crisp sound. It was especially comfortable under the zither music, and it made one’s eyebrows relax.

It turned out that it was an instrument.

After the two of them finished playing, Ah Yu also finished her breakfast. After listening, she wiped her hands and praised, “Grandma, Empress Dowager, you played so well!”

“It sounds good, right? You can open this class in your women’s academy,” Old Madam Wang suddenly said..
