207 Would She Be s.n.a.t.c.hed Away By That Man?
Ji Yan glanced at Rong Zhan, who was still calmly drinking his tea. He could not figure out what Rong Zhan was thinking.
The prince seemed to care about it as he wanted to rush over in such a hurry. However, when he saw the prince’s calm expression, he also seemed to not care.
Ji Yan did not dare to ask further and hurriedly went down to make preparations.
Rong Han was still worried. He turned around, reached out, and cupped his father’s face. “Father, previously, Lord Xiao from the imperial study taught us that the pavilion near the water gets the moon first. You said that fairy has been away from us for so long and another man has appeared by her side. Will she be s.n.a.t.c.hed away by that man?”
Rong Zhan grabbed Rong Han’s small hand and put it down. He said calmly, “No.”
“How does father know?” Rong Han tilted his head in confusion.
“Everything comes first come first served. You’ll know in the future. Let’s go and say h.e.l.lo to your great-grandfather. We’ll set off immediately.” Rong Zhan carried Rong Han out of the study and went straight to Shouan Courtyard.
Five days later…
After a few days of recuperation, Nine was able to get out of bed and walk.
Although he still needed to support himself with a wooden walking stick and every step would be unbearable, in order to recover faster, Nine still listened to Gu Qingxue and insisted on getting out of bed and walking every day to exercise his injured leg and help with the housework.
He walked all the way from the north wing to the kitchen with his walking stick. Nine looked at the three children and saw that they were wiping the water stains off the bowls and chopsticks that Nanny Sheng had washed.
When he heard the movement behind him, Lingbao turned his head to look behind him and said happily, “Uncle Nine, your leg doesn’t hurt anymore?”
Nine ignored the stinging pain coming from behind his knees and said against his heart, “It’s much better. What are you doing? Let me help you.”
“The weather is too cold. After washing the dishes, you have to wipe off the water stains before putting them in the cabinet. Otherwise, they will easily crack from the cold.” Seeing Nine’s curious face, Gu Lin took the initiative to give him a seat, “Uncle Nine, do you want to give it a try?”
“Uncle Nine, give it a try. If you do well, when mother comes back and sees you, she will pat your head and praise you for doing well. She will say that you are a good child,” said Dumby with a yearning look.
Nine imagined the scene described by Dumby and did not know whether to laugh or cry. He said, “Uncle Nine is already an adult. You don’t need to praise me.”
“That’s not the case. Adults also need to be praised. Every time mother cooks a delicious meal, as long as we praise her, she will be very happy. There’s also the little dessert that nanny gave us to eat secretly, so we’ll thank nanny. Nanny will also be very happy Nine, have you never been praised before?” Lingbao blinked her eyes, he looked at Nine curiously and asked.
An inexplicable emotion appeared in Nine’s eyes. He said expressionlessly, “I don’t remember.”
Gu Lin tilted his head. “So, Uncle Nine, do you want to give it a try or not?”
“Of course, I have to do it. This is my promise to Miss Gu.” Nine walked up with his cane and took the cloth from Gu Lin’s hand.
The ordinary-looking cloth seemed to have a life in Nine’s hand. As he turned it, it bloomed like a flower, and then he caught it steadily.
“Wow!” The three children saw this scene and exclaimed in unison.
Nine chuckled. He picked up a wet plate and rubbed it hard.
Crack!
With a crisp sound, Nine used too much force and broke the plate in half from the middle.
