Slowly Deep Love

Qianyin came out of the room and walked along the corridor for a while. She saw Li Hengtu and Yue Weiwei sitting at the table and talking, so she walked over quickly to greet them and said, "Mrs. Ming, you came to see Miss Three so early? You've worked so hard!"

"I was always thinking about Hengying and couldn't sleep well, so I came to see her early. Just now, Mr. Li said that she was still asleep, so we sat here and talked." Yue Weiwei stood up, walked to Qianyin, held her hand and said.

"Mrs. Ming, it's cold in the mornings in spring. You must take care of yourself and dress warmly."

"Look at what I'm wearing." Yue Weiwei shook the furry cape on her body and continued, "Last night, Nanny Li told me to wear this this morning."

"Are Nanny Li and the others okay?" Qian Yin suddenly frowned and said, "Qingxiang Pavilion must have been very busy these past two days."

"My mother sent me four maids. They are very smart and efficient. They manage Qingxiang Pavilion very well. I feel very safe staying in the general's mansion!" Yue Weiwei praised the four people highly.

Qian Yin smiled and said, "The person sent by the Grand Commandant's wife is naturally talented and will definitely become Madam Ming's right-hand man."

Yue Weiwei had some grudges against these four people, but she didn't dare show it on her face and just smiled and nodded.

Li Hengtu asked: "Qianyin, is the third sister awake?"

"The third young lady is still asleep! She coughed again just now, but she didn't wake up. She was awake for too long at night."

"Does Hengying cough badly after waking up at night?" Yue Weiwei asked.

"Oh! She's still coughing. It's too cold at night, so I added a layer of blanket for the third young lady." Qianyin replied.

"Qianyin, go and have breakfast first! We'll be busy when my third sister wakes up." Li Hengtu said to her, and Qianyin left.

"Mr. Li, have you had breakfast?" Yue Weiwei wanted to show some concern for him.

"I have eaten. What did you eat in the morning, Madam Ming?"

"The breakfast prepared by Huaan is rich and delicious."

"Are you used to eating this?" he asked, which made Yue Weiwei feel a little embarrassed.

"Qian Yue cooks the most meals for me, and Nanny Li also often prepares breakfast for me. I am really used to their cooking skills, and the meals are full of love."

"You are very nostalgic. Hua'an's craftsmanship should be good, but it lacks soul!" Li Hengtu looked into her eyes and said this seriously.

Yue Weiwei felt that his interpretation was correct: the meals cooked by Qian Yue and the others were a token of their love, while the meals cooked by Hua An and the others were just a competition for quality.

She didn't comment, but smiled softly and said, "Hua An's cooking is certainly good, and the food is delicious and tasty."

"Food is the primary need of the people. Do you know that there are people in this world who can't get enough food?" Li Hengtu suddenly looked worried.

Yue looked at him slightly. Such a young man living deep in the palace actually had a heart that worried about the country and the people.

"Of course I know!" Yue Weiwei also said heavily.

"There was another battle at the border last night, and the people there are living in dire straits."

Yue Weiwei has received higher education and read many books. She knows that border wars in ancient times were always turbulent and never subsided.

Nanny Li said that Minglu's brother Mingzhan was joining the army at the frontier. He was an ambitious man who defended his country.

"Mr. Li, do you know Ming Zhan?" Yue Weiwei suddenly thought of him and was extremely curious.

"He is your brother, and you actually call him by his name!" Li Hengtu knew Yue Weiwei a little, and there was no blame in his tone. He reminded her as if he was joking.

She was a little embarrassed, and quickly lowered her head and said softly: "My brother is joining the army at the border. Is he safe?"

"I have met him several times. There is a study club in the imperial capital where many scholars like to gather to discuss their country and the world. Ming Zhan is well-versed in military books and is not a reckless man. He will be fine."

It turns out that Ming Zhan is even better than she thought. As a brother, he once dissuaded his sister from marrying into the Taiwei Mansion. He has a long-term vision! Yue Weiwei is full of expectations and hopes to meet him by chance!

"Let's go see Hengying! If she wakes up, she'll need someone to take care of her." Yue Weiwei suddenly remembered this arduous task and could no longer sit still, so she stood up and walked to the corridor.

Yue Weiwei stood at the door and put her ear close to listen. Li Hengying's room was quiet. She thought about it and stepped back.

At this time, a "cough, cough" sound came from the room, followed by a series of coughs.

Yue Weiwei quickly pushed the door open and walked in, and saw Li Hengying lying on the bed, covering her mouth, and coughing so hard that she was about to jump up!

She ran over and asked anxiously, "Hengying, do you feel discomfort in your chest?"

Li Hengtu said, "Doctor Liu will be here soon, please hold on a little longer, Third Sister."

Yue Weiwei sat on the edge of the bed and gently patted Li Hengying's back to help her calm down, but it had little effect.

She was so anxious that sweat broke out on her forehead and her whole body was restless. The cloak on her body seemed cumbersome. When she pulled the rope, the cloak slid down her back and she hurried to pick it up.

Li Hengtu happened to see this scene, walked forward and picked up the cloak for her.

The two people touched heads and hands.

Yue Weiwei sat face down on the bed, while Li Hengtu squatted on the ground face up.

He felt the cold sweat on her forehead, her hands were hot, and her breath was rapid and tense, with wisps of heat entering his nostrils. Ripples spread in his heart and he couldn't calm down!

Yue Weiwei blushed in embarrassment and stammered, "I... I'm so sorry, it was such a mess!"

"I...just saw your cloak fall off, so I wanted to help you pick it up. I didn't expect to offend you. I'm sorry!" Li Hengtu stood up slowly and saw that Li Hengying was still coughing, but looking at this side.

So he said to her, "Third sister, I'll go see where Doctor Liu is."
