The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

Chapter 316 Shen Jiarou Wants to Grow Taller

The old lady met the mother and daughter in the courtyard.

"I pay my respects to the princess."

When she saw her grandmother, Shen Jiarou let go of her mother's hand.

"My granddaughter has met her grandmother and wishes her well."

After the two of them greeted each other, Shen Jiarou supported the old lady.

"Grandma, since we've met in the courtyard, why don't we chat for a while under the pavilion in the courtyard?"

The old lady said kindly, "Okay, listen to the princess."

"Grandma, please sit down."

"Princess, sit down too."

"I heard that today is the day to send the envoys away from the capital, but have they already left?" the old lady asked in a gentle voice.

"Yes, my brother the Crown Prince and Grandpa Six have also gone back, so I came to see my grandmother."

The old lady smiled with relief: "The princess is thoughtful."

"How is grandma doing lately?"

"It's okay."

"Let me take your pulse, granddaughter."

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were stunned: "Can you take a pulse?"

"Return to Mengguoxue."

The old lady glanced at her eldest daughter-in-law, and stretched out her hand half-believingly. Shen Jiarou stretched out the tips of her index finger, middle finger, and ring finger, and pressed hard on the three parts of her left hand to feel the pulse.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law thought that her serious look made her look a bit like a doctor.

The wife of the Marquis of Yong'an asked, "Princess, what's wrong?"

Shen Jiarou frowned slightly: "Mother, grandma's pulse is a little weak, and her qi and blood are a little weak recently."

The old lady was startled: "Ah, is that a problem?"

Shen Jiarou smiled and said, "It's okay, but I still need to nourish myself. Eat more black wolfberry, red dates, lean meat such as beef and chicken, spinach and other foods that replenish qi and blood."

The wife of Yong'an Marquis smiled and said, "We have all these in the mansion. Give some to mother-in-law when the time comes."

The old lady smiled kindly: "The princess is amazing. She has become a doctor after being away for a few months."

Zhang Zirou and Zheng Shutong smiled at each other.

"Grandma, I have a lot of black wolfberries. I'll ask someone to bring some to you when I get home."

The old lady was very pleased to hear this and she took her little hand and patted it lovingly.

"Okay, grandma, thank you first, princess."

"Grandma, we are all family, no need to be so polite."

"You are all here." The second and third wives came.

The old lady smiled and said, "You are here."

The two bowed respectfully: "Meet mother."

"Sit down quickly."

The round table was already full, and when six young ladies arrived, they had to ask the servants to bring chairs.

"You girls have also heard the letter."

Jiang Shuxin smiled and said, "Grandma, you are teasing us."

Jiang Shulan smiled and said, "Sister Princess, how long will you stay in the mansion today?"

Jiang Shujia said: "Yes, Princess Sister, will you stay overnight today?"

Shen Jiarou pursed her lips slightly, looked at her grandmother and mother and smiled.

"Stay, we haven't seen each other for a while, it's time for us sisters to get together."

Jiang Shuhan and Jiang Shufei looked at each other and smiled. That’s great. The princess will stay overnight.

The whole family was chatting in the courtyard, and laughter could be heard from time to time.

Jiang Shulan asked curiously, "Princess sister, how have you been spending the past few months?"

When the topic came to this, Shen Jiarou smiled.

"Sister Qingling and I are on a par with Tang Monk on his quest for Buddhist scriptures in the West."

Everyone was stunned.

"Who is Tang Monk? What is the Journey to the West?"

Hearing this, Shen Jiarou's face was filled with embarrassment. She had forgotten that the dynasty she was in was fictitious.

"I mean the journey was extremely difficult. I'm afraid it must have been a difficult journey."

Everyone understood what he meant, which was that there were many hardships along the way.

The wife of the Marquis of Yong'an arranged for the butler to prepare a richer lunch and asked the kitchen to make the pickled fish that Shen Jiarou liked.

"Come, Princess, have a bowl of pickled fish soup."

"Thank you, mother." Shen Jiarou likes sour fish soup. She likes the sour taste, which is more refreshing.

The Second Madam picked up a piece of tenderloin and gave it to Shen Jiarou: "Princess, try this tenderloin."

"Thank you, second aunt."

The family had their meal together happily.

Fengyi Palace

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also returned to the Queen's Palace to have dinner with his mother.

"Prince, where is Yi Yi?"

"Mother, please go to Yong'an Marquis Mansion one by one."

The queen smiled when she heard this: "I've been away for more than half a year, and I've been accompanying the envoys for the past few months. It would be good for me to visit more often."

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said gently, "Mother is right."

"By the way, your sister will be ten years old soon. Her birthday is coming up soon, and mother wants to give her a big celebration."

Hearing this, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince frowned slightly.

"You should ask your sister for her opinion. She doesn't care about these things."

The Queen shook her head: "It's okay for her not to care, but I, as the Queen Mother, cannot not care. I will discuss this with your father when the time comes."

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince pursed his lips and nodded: "Okay, Mother, please do as you see fit."

The queen looked at her son and said, "She is your sister, you should also pay more attention to her."

Uncle Hei returned to the imperial study and reported the situation of the envoys to Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty.

"Which territory have we reached?"

"Your Majesty, we have left the capital and are now in Yunzhou."

"Okay, you should take a rest these few days."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Uncle Hei left the imperial study, but met Shen Jiarou at the corner.

"Your subordinate greets the princess."

"Uncle Hei, no need to be polite."

"Thank you princess."

"Uncle Hei, thank you for your hard work in the past few months."

Uncle Hei looked at the growing girl and said, "I must have missed the princess on the battlefield."

Hearing this, Shen Jiarou was stunned.

"Ah, really?"

Uncle Hei nodded: "I heard the princess' voice and thought it was an illusion."

"That's possible. Sister Qingling said she seemed to see a familiar figure and thought it was just an illusion."

Uncle Hei sighed softly: "Alas, if the princess had been brought back earlier, she wouldn't have to suffer so much."

Shen Jiarou smiled with curved eyebrows: "It's not in vain."

Uncle Hei understood what she said and started laughing too.

"Princess, are you looking at the Emperor?"

"Correct."

"Then I won't waste your time."

"Goodbye Uncle Hei."

Shen Jiarou watched the figure of Uncle Hei in black tights.

Zhang Zirou reminded in a low voice: "Princess, we should go now."

"Let's go."

Emperor Yuan Shun saw Shen Jiarou and smiled: "Did you meet your Uncle Hei?"

"We met and chatted for a while."

"Did you go to Yong'an Marquis' Mansion today?"

Shen Jiarou picked up the tea brought by the maid and said, "Yes, I accompanied my grandmother and mother and stayed overnight."

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty looked at his youngest daughter carefully and found that she had become taller.

"Yi Yi has grown taller."

Li Jiang glanced at the sitting girl and agreed: "Your Majesty, it seems that the princess is taller than when she first came back."

Shen Jiarou's eyes lit up when she heard this: "Really? That's great."

She just wanted to be taller, with fair skin, long legs, and beautiful dresses so that she would look better.

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty and Li Jiang Liuxu both laughed when they heard it.

"You're only ten years old, why are you in such a hurry?"

Shen Jiarou shook her head: "It would be better if she was taller."

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty laughed: "You look good now too."

"Well, it would be best if I could wait until I'm sixteen or seventeen years old, and preferably about 1.678 meters tall." This was the perfect height in her mind.

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty smiled dotingly: "Why should a girl be so tall? It's better for her to be petite and dependent."

Shen Jiarou pouted: "No, I just want to grow that height. Besides, a girl's height is also good, and it will look better in clothes."

Emperor Yuan Shun felt that the truth had been revealed: "So that's how it is. Father was just too naive, haha."

"Well, my brother the Crown Prince and my brothers are all quite tall, and I want to grow taller too."
