Nangong Su couldn't believe that the woman who was so considerate and tolerant towards her servants could be the one who hurt Gu Ruoxi?

"impossible!"

Qingyi was a straightforward person and said immediately:

"How is it impossible? We have asked, and none of the servants dared to touch the young lady. And the piece of porcelain that scratched the young lady is still in Aunt Zhu's hand."

Nangong Su stared blankly at Jing'an Hall.

There was his mother, whom he always respected, and Zhu Xinlan, whom he regarded as a sweetheart.

He couldn't figure out what they wanted.

The old marquis’s wife is her mother, so no matter if it is Xuan’er or Yu’er, they are all her grandchildren.

It is obvious that Yu'er is more capable of leading the Marquisate to go further. Can't I see that?

Why do you want to mess up a good family like this? Isn't it better to keep it as it was before?

Nangong Su had a complicated expression. He wanted to go in and ask, but Qing Yi stepped sideways and blocked his way:

"My Lord, please don't go in."

Nangong Su looked at Qingyi, turned around and left the inner courtyard and went to the outer courtyard.

Gu Ruoxi ate a lot of pastries before going to bed. Because of her leg injury, she couldn't walk around to digest the food. Now that it was time to sleep, she felt uncomfortable.

The face that was tied up like a mummy looked at Nangong Yu with a pair of sad eyes.

Nangong Yu looked at her with some amusement:

"Are you feeling uncomfortable? Do you want me to rub it for you?"

Gu Ruoxi slapped Nangong Yu's hand away:

"No, I want to heal my leg."

Nangong Yu was stunned for a moment and then nodded:

"Okay, you should heal the injury on your leg first."

Gu Ruoxi mobilized the wood spiritual energy in her body and began to heal her leg. Fortunately, the wound on her leg was not very deep.

It is not easy to gather some wood spiritual energy in this broken body, and some of it always leaks out from time to time.

Nangong Yu’s poison has not been completely removed yet, but Nangong Yu said that as long as his life is not endangered, he will not be treated for the time being.

Sometimes, it is also used to deal with some imperial doctors.

It took Gu Ruoxi some effort to heal the injury on her leg.

Nangong Yu also wanted to make himself more comfortable, so if there was nothing else to do after dinner, he asked the servants to go out.

With the curtains drawn, he could walk around the room.

I pretend to be disabled all day long and only at this time am I free.

The injury on Gu Ruoxi's leg was not completely healed in one go because the wood spiritual energy was too insufficient. Although it was still a little painful, she still climbed down from the couch and followed Nangong Yu.

Nangong Yu walked a few steps and turned back, almost bumping into Gu Ruoxi. Gu Ruoxi was afraid of being bumped into, so she took a step back and complained:

"What are you turning around for?"

Nangong Yu suddenly found it a little funny.

"Xi'er, if this is the case, then we both have to pretend to be disabled starting tomorrow?"

Gu Ruoxi blinked her eyes and suddenly realized, was this guy trying to take revenge on her for laughing at him for pretending to be disabled these past two days?

Gu Ruoxi glared and pointed at her own face.

Eyes full of accusations:

"I can govern myself. It's you who won't let me do it!"

Nangong Yu found it funny and put his arm around her shoulders:

"Okay, okay, okay, we are both the same, let's just stay in this room tomorrow."

Gu Ruoxi thought for a moment, found a pen and paper, and leaned over the table to draw something: a wheelchair!

Nangong Yu felt his eyes light up.

Gu Ruoxi knew that it was impossible to draw so accurately, so she just drew a chair and then drew two big wheels on both sides of the chair.

Then he pointed to the wheel and said:

"The carriage one!"

Then he pointed to a handle behind the chair:

"Push here."

Nangong Yu narrowed his eyes and smiled. Yes, he had never thought that he could make something like this.

Nangong Yu reached out and knocked on the bed, and then a voice came from the window:

"master."

Nangong Yu gently opened the curtain a little bit and handed out the paper that Gu Ruoxi had drawn:

"Go and order two of these chairs that can be pushed around."

Gu Ruoxi added:

"If you stop, you have to stop steadily."

Nangong Yu did not avoid her as he had his own secret guard matters to attend to.

The secret guard took the paper and went out.

Nangong Yu reached out and tapped Gu Ruoxi's forehead:

"How did you come up with that?"

"carriage."

Nangong Yu narrowed his eyes and smiled. This girl was a little different. If she was smart, she was too smart because considering the place where she grew up and her life experiences, she shouldn't be so smart.

But at the moment, I don't think there is anything wrong with her.

After walking back and forth in the room, Gu Ruoxi reached out to the small cakes on the table again, but this time she was slapped by Nangong Yu:

"You are digesting the food. You should get ready for bed. You can't eat anymore. You can eat tomorrow."

I know it, but I feel sad when I see the delicious food but cannot eat it.

This time, Gu Ruoxi consciously went to sleep inside, but this face! This injury!

I can't sleep on my side anymore. I can only lie flat or look at Nangong Yu.

Not wanting to lie flat, not wanting to look at Nangong Yu, Gu Ruoxi, who was used to sleeping on her right side, sometimes lay flat, sometimes turned sideways.

I feel like I'm flipping a pancake when I'm in bed. I toss and turn but just can't fall asleep.

Nangong Yu was tired and went to wash up. He leaned against the bed and read a book, but Gu Ruoxi's movements were too big for him to stay still:

"What happened to you?"

"I hate getting hurt, and I hate not being able to sleep."

Gu Ruoxi's anger was rising.

Nangong Yu reached out and gently patted her shoulder and said:

"You lie down with your eyes closed, and I read to you. You listen to the book, and then you fall asleep."

Speaking of books, Gu Ruoxi looked up and seemed to recognize the words, but also seemed not to recognize them.

He immediately became interested, sat up and leaned against the head of the bed, pointed at a word and asked:

"How do you pronounce this?"

"This is the word 'dong', which means direction. When we say east, south, west and north, we are referring to this word 'dong'.

Gu Ruoxi looked at him in surprise. Is this Dong? Why doesn't he look like him?

Looking further down, I recognized some of the characters and part of most of the characters.

Gu Ruoxi's heart sank. Could it be that the characters used in this era were traditional Chinese characters that she was not familiar with? Then she would not recognize some of the characters.

Nangong Yu, however, thought that if he wanted Gu Ruoxi to learn how to manage the Marquis' Mansion in the future, she would naturally have to at least learn to read.

And I always thought that she was so smart, she should know it.

Now it seems that he can't even recognize the simplest ones, and he has to start from scratch.

Nangong Yu closed the book:

"Wait a minute, you can't understand this book. Wait a minute, let me see if there is any more in this room of enlightenment?"

After searching for a long time, he finally found a book and sat back on the bed to teach Gu Ruoxi how to read.

Gu Ruoxi didn't recognize any of them, she was just not very familiar with traditional Chinese characters. For example, the character "体" (body) was not put together with the character "屍" (corpse) in the end times, and she would definitely not recognize it as a character for individual.

Nowadays, all books are written in traditional Chinese characters, which gives Gu Ruoxi a headache when she reads them.

After Nangong Yu taught her a few words, Gu Ruoxi automatically retreated into her bed:

"No more learning, you can watch it yourself, I'm going to sleep."
