Chapter 6 Porridge with Green Vegetables
Chapter 6 Porridge with Green Vegetables
After hearing this, Jia Zhu obediently replied, "Alright then, brother, get well soon!"
Everyone enjoyed the meal, except for Jia Hu, who could only drink porridge. No matter how delicious the porridge was, it was still porridge. Looking at all the delicious food in front of him, the porridge didn't taste good anymore.
After the meal, the maids served tea, and Grandmother Jia asked:
"I was in a hurry before, so I informed your father about this matter."
"Father was accompanying the Emperor out. I didn't dare to disturb you, but Hu'er's condition wasn't good before, so I sent someone to inform you. After Hu'er woke up, I also sent someone to deliver the message as fast as possible."
Jia She replied.
“You did the right thing. Such a big thing has happened, you need to inform your father.”
Grandmother Jia nodded in agreement.
“Grandma, it’s getting late. The young master is fine, and you’ve had a long day. Why don’t you go home soon?”
Seeing that everything had been arranged, Liu Mama, who was by Grandmother Jia's side, advised Grandmother Jia, who looked tired.
“Mother Liu is right. Mother, you should go back and rest soon. You have your son here.”
Grandmother Jia was indeed tired, and said:
"Send someone to tell them immediately if anything happens."
"Yes, please rest assured, Mother."
Jia She nodded and said.
After everyone saw Grandmother Jia off, Jia Zheng also took his leave.
Jia Zhu insisted on staying to sleep with her brother. She hadn't watched over her brother for a single day, and then the accident happened. Now she was determined to stay close to her brother and wouldn't trust anyone else with him.
Jia Zheng looked at Jia Zhu with a sense of helplessness.
Jia She laughed heartily, pinched Jia Zhu's little face, and said:
"Then I'll entrust your brother to your protection."
"Don't worry, Uncle," Jia Zhu said firmly, puffing out her small chest.
Her adorable appearance made everyone laugh again.
After seeing Jia Zheng off, Jia She and Zhang Shi waited until Jia Hu and Jia Zhu had finished washing up and were lying in bed before returning to the main room. Before leaving, they instructed the maids and servants to take good care of them.
Jia Zhu lay on the bed, mimicking how the nanny would lull him to sleep, patting Jia Hu and saying:
"Brother, go to sleep and you'll get better soon. Pearl will protect you."
Jia Hu found Jia Zhu's precocious manner both amusing and touching.
I feel a little fortunate that I traveled back to my family home from my previous life, and seeing the care and concern my family showed me filled me with gratitude.
Just as he was thinking this, he felt the force of the hands patting his body getting lighter and lighter. He turned his head and saw that Jia Zhu had already fallen asleep.
Jia Hu covered Jia Zhu with the blanket and found it a little funny. He was trying to lull Jia Zhu to sleep, but he had already fallen asleep himself.
Thinking to myself that I was still sick, I fell asleep.
The old woman who was guarding the bed saw that the two young masters had fallen asleep, so she put away the bed curtains, left only a small lamp on, and turned off all the other lights.
Jia Hu slept very well. When he opened his eyes, he felt that it was already bright outside. Seeing that Jia Zhu was still sleeping, he lay back down and tried to carefully search his memory for things related to this life, but he couldn't remember anything.
Come to think of it, I was quite young when it happened, and so many years have passed. It's normal not to remember it so clearly.
However, seeing the loving elders and harmonious brothers in the family, it seems to be a family with a very upright family tradition. It seems that God has opened his eyes and allowed him to experience what it's like to be a rich second generation.
Jia Hu began to recall his memories. He knew vaguely about his family members, but his memory of his grandfather was that of a very capable and kind man.
From what everyone said yesterday, I can tell that my grandfather can accompany the emperor, which must be a very high-ranking official. Does that mean I can just relax and do nothing for the rest of my life?
Thinking about this, Jia Hu felt a sense of satisfaction. After arriving in modern times, he grew up in an orphanage and worked hard all his life, just to have a better life. But now, looking at the food, clothing, and daily necessities of this family, and thinking about his grandfather, he realized how fortunate he had been. He had never had to worry about food or clothing and never had to work hard again.
At this moment, Jia Zhu rubbed her eyes and called out, "Brother."
When Jia Hu saw that Jia Zhu had woken up, he said:
"Brother's here, time to get up."
Hearing the voices inside, the old woman outside also asked:
"Gentlemen, are you about to get up?"
After Jia Zhu regained consciousness, he first hugged Jia Hu and cried out:
"elder brother."
The child is quite clingy.
Jia Hu replied:
"Yes, brother is here. Let's get up."
Jia Hu responded, and then said:
"It's time for you, grandma."
The old woman deftly tidied up the bed curtains.
Several more maids came up and began to help the two of them dress and wash up.
After Jia Hu and Jia Zhu finished tidying up, Granny Zhao asked:
"Young Master, would the Second Young Master like to have his meal first?"
Jia Hu then asked:
"Are Father and Mother available?"
The maid said:
"The old master and the old lady have already eaten. They told us to wait until the two gentlemen wake up before having their meal."
"Alright, let's set the table first."
My meal consisted of porridge with some green vegetables.
Seeing Jia Zhu eating with such relish, I've never felt so strongly about getting better quickly.
