Searching for Treasures in the Clouds

Chapter 262: The Wen Family (VII)

Wen Zhuomo and Shi Yanchun went to the door of Yu Ru's room together. Shi Yanchun reached out and knocked on the door a few times, calling inside: "Xiao Ru, are you there? Is it convenient for me and your grandfather Wen to come in?"

In the room, Zhang Wenshu was feeding Yu Ru, who was lying on the bed sickly, with a dazed look and half-open eyes, looking uncomfortable. Hearing the knock on the door, Zhang Wenshu immediately put down the bowl and spoon in her hand, looked at Yu Ru and greeted: "Xiao Ru, I opened the door." Yu Ru nodded.

Afterwards, Zhang Wenshu stood up and opened the door for Wen Zhuomo and Shi Yanchun.

The two elders came in and saw Yu Ru lying on the bed, covered with a quilt, with one hand stiffly resting on the quilt, and a bowl of rice next to her. It was obvious that she couldn't move her hands and feet and couldn't eat on her own. They immediately went up to sit beside the bed and asked about the situation. "Xiao Ru, what's going on?" Wen Zhuomo asked, asking Yu Ru, but his eyes were looking at Zhang Wenshu.

Zhang Wenshu was about to speak when Yu Ru suddenly grabbed her clothes. She turned around and saw Yu Ru grinning at her, gesturing with one hand, making a gesture that looked like she was writing. She immediately understood what she meant. There was paper and a pen on the bedside table next to her, and she reached out and got them.

"Come here, Xiaoru, this is for you." She put the paper and pen in front of Yu Ru.

Yu Ru stroked the paper up and down with one hand several times, and then wrote on it: Grandpa Wen, Grandma Shi, the wound on my left hand has split open. I fell down accidentally. I am sorry for causing you trouble. You can go back to the family dinner quickly. Don't worry about me. I'm fine.

The arm where Yu Ru's wound was torn was wrapped in bandages, which looked like a large toilet paper roll. Only a piece of bandage could be seen, and nothing else was abnormal. Shi Yanchun carefully held her injured hand with both hands and sighed: "Oh, oh, it's so serious again. How could you fall? Xiaoru, where did you fall? Is the floor too slippery?"

Wen Zhuomo looked at Yu Ru's arms and responded, "Yes, if it's because the floor is too slippery, tell us and I'll arrange for someone to lay a carpet to prevent others from falling."

Yu Ru shook her head, took the paper back and pressed it on the bed and continued to write: I fell at the kitchen door, the floor was not very slippery, I was careless. I'm fine, Grandpa Wen and Grandma Shi, you guys go eat quickly.

After Yu Ru's repeated emphasis, Shi Yanchun and Wen Zhuomo temporarily put their minds at ease, left the room and returned to the family dinner table to eat, while Zhang Wenshu and Yu Ru in the room were still discussing.

"Xiao Ru, it was clearly Duan Yi who pushed you. You should tell the old gentleman that we will not be wronged by this."

Yu Ru shook her head and wrote on the paper: Aunt Zhang, Grandpa Wen is a detective, he will know, we will see the situation in a few days. Although Aunt Duan is deliberately bullying us, Wen Nachuan likes her very much, and she is really good to Wen Nachuan, so we can't complain, let's wait for Grandpa Wen to find out the truth himself.

Zhang Wenshu lowered her head to read what she had written. After reading it, she hugged Yu Ru and smiled happily. The wrinkles at the corners of her eyes wrinkled like the leaves of golden thread daisy. "You are so smart, little one! What you said makes sense. Let's wait a little longer."

Yu Ru smiled and nodded. There was a burning aromatherapy on the bedside table. She suddenly turned her head to look at the aromatherapy, pinched the paper in her hand, and put it on the outer flame. The paper was quickly burned to ash, and the ashes fell into the aromatherapy container and finally merged with the aromatherapy paste.

……

The bone of Yu Ru's hand was not damaged, but the injury was serious. In order to prevent any accidents, she temporarily stopped going to the private school and stayed at Wen's house to rest and study on her own.

That day, she stayed in her room to draw. When it was almost noon, she looked out the window. The sunlight outside the window was much stronger than before. She estimated that it was almost noon, so she got up and walked out of the room.

She wanted to go see Zhang Wenshu. Zhang Wenshu was almost fifty years old, a few years younger than her grandmother, and she took care of her like this on weekdays, treating her better than her own grandmother, so she would often go to see if Zhang Wenshu could help her when it was time for dinner.

Her room was on the second floor and the kitchen was on the first floor, so she had to go downstairs.

She had a lot of old injuries on her legs, so she walked down the stairs slowly. When she was about to reach the last few steps, she heard voices of conversation coming from far away. There were two voices in total, a man and a woman. The voices seemed to be deliberately lowered, so it was not very clear and she could only hear the general idea.

"Shuchen, how long do you plan to let Yu Ru stay at our house? You can't expect her to come every holiday, right?"

"I don't know. Judging from the situation, it should be the case. Dad seems to be planning to support Yu Ru to finish college."

"So long? I'm worried that her staying here all the time might have an impact on Xiaochuan. How about we move out?"

It was Wen Nachuan's parents talking.

Hearing their voices and the content of their conversation, Yu Ru didn't know whether she should go down, but she couldn't go up or down in her current state. Going up seemed even weirder, as if she was escaping. Maybe coming down would be better, but if she went down, she would definitely meet them face to face. How could she pretend that she didn't hear their conversation?

The distance between them did not give her much time to think, and she only hesitated for a few seconds before they came in front of her.

"Yu Ru?" Qi Zhaolin was the first to see her. She looked a little surprised, quickly looked at Yu Ru, and asked: "Why are you here? Are you hungry?"

Yu Ru shook her head, took out a pen and paper from her pocket, and wrote on the paper: Uncle Wen, hello Aunt Qi, I'm not hungry, I'm going to find Aunt Zhang.

"Oh, I see." Qi Zhaolin nodded, "Then go find her."

Yu Ru nodded.

Yu Ru slowly left the spot. When she was a distance away, Qi Zhaolin turned his head to look at the clerk and asked in a low voice: "Clerk, she probably didn't hear what we just said, right?"

The clerk turned his head and looked at the stairs, looking from top to bottom, and replied: "It's hard to say, maybe he has heard it."

Qi Zhaolin sighed, "Well... Well, listening to Dad's description, this child is quite pitiful. But... Xiaochuan is now like a mental patient, always secretly bullying Xiaohai. Since Yu Ru joined in, he has become even more neurotic. He is a smart child and has a good nature, but I feel that he is currently very jealous, competitive, and possessive. It is not appropriate for Yu Ru to stay here..."
