Xia Zhiliao looked at him, "What are you afraid of?"
Wen Heng suddenly smiled and said, "Let's eat."
"Are you afraid that I'll eat?" Xia Zhiliao frowned, "I didn't eat your food. Besides, it's almost the same if you eat my food."
After saying that, she moved all the dishes she had just cooked in front of herself, looking a little fierce as if she was protecting the food.
Wen Heng smiled bitterly, "I admit that you cooked the dish, but who gave you the firewood, who carried you to the stove, who..."
"Stop it. Anyway, I didn't eat your meal."
Wen Heng nodded, "Okay, it doesn't matter if you eat my food. Anyway, I may not be able to take good care of you now, and I don't want you to be implicated because of me."
He just didn't have the courage to say it, so this girl misunderstood, right?
"Ah? That..."
"Eat!" Wen Heng said again, and he didn't go to see Xia Zhile anymore.
Xia Zhiliao spit out the rope and ate obediently, but his little thoughts were still on his mind.
[So he is concerned about me. Even a bad guy can be very considerate.]
Wen Heng remained calm, thinking in his heart, you just now realize how long I have been caring about you, you heartless guy.
[But what's the point of you caring about me now? Everyone in the capital knows that we are in the same group. You better behave yourself. I don't want to be implicated. Woohoo!]
Wen Heng was quite touched just now, but now he couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"What are you thinking about? Why don't you eat quickly?" Wen Heng said unhappily.
Xia Zhiliao curled his lips.
[Of course I can’t tell you what I’m thinking. I’ve finally survived to this day, and I don’t want to be killed by you. I haven’t spent all the money I’ve earned yet, what a pity!]
Wen Heng cleared his throat and reminded her again.
Inside the house.
Nanny Cui helped Princess Yi Yang lie down and covered her with a quilt.
It's different here than at the foot of the mountain. It's so hot at the foot of the mountain that you'll sweat after walking a few steps. Here it's still a little cool wearing only a single layer of clothing. It's okay for children, but older people really can't stand it.
Especially since Princess Yi Yang had suffered many injuries before, the injuries would flare up when the weather was damp and cold.
"Princess, I'll go get you a cup of hot tea."
Princess Yiyang held her hand and said, "Yingyu, I'm not thirsty."
Madam Cui nodded and said, "Then you should take a good rest. I will take care of you."
Aunt Cui shook her head. "Stop busying yourself and sit down."
Aunt Cui was a little at a loss, but she still sat down obediently, "Princess, do you have any instructions for me?"
Princess Yiyang shook her head. "I told you a long time ago, stop calling me a slave. You have lived here with me for more than 20 years. It's just the two of us. I have long stopped treating you like a slave, but you just won't listen."
Madam Cui smiled, "I'm used to it. My life was given by the princess. Not to mention that there is food and drink here, and it's not tiring. Even if it's a sea of fire and a mountain of swords, I will accompany you."
Princess Yiyang patted her hands and said, "I know how good you are to me, and I also know how good the emperor's sister-in-law is to me. She sent the child to me, probably not just because the child can cure my illness."
Aunt Cui was a little confused. "Then what is the reason?"
"She really wants this child to help me get over my mental illness."
Aunt Cui nodded vigorously, "Princess, you will be fine. You will definitely be fine."
"I just thought of Yue'er. When she passed away, she was about the same age as this child..."
Madam Cui remembered what Xia Zhiliao said, "Princess, I have a very disrespectful question to ask."
"We can talk about whatever we want to say. What's wrong?"
"You...you...I dare not."
"Look at you. Come on."
"I was afraid... afraid you would remember something unpleasant."
"What would make me unhappy?" Princess Yiyang smiled bitterly and said, "Could it be related to the father and daughter?"
Aunt Cui nodded cautiously, "Yes, it is related to the princess."
"Yuer? What's wrong?"
"Your servant... Your servant just wants to ask you." Nanny Cui plucked up her courage. She thought, if all else fails, isn't there still Xia Zhi?
With her around, the princess will be fine.
"What on earth is this? Yingyu, you are not like that."
Madam Cui nodded. "I want to ask you, how did you recognize the little princess when you saw her?"
"Princess, Princess..."
Aunt Cui slapped herself in regret. She shouldn't have been so impatient. Seeing the princess' abnormal behavior, she quickly called out, "Miss Zhiliao, Zhiliao, come in quickly."
Xia Zhiliao was still playing with Wen Heng. When she heard Nanny Cui's heart-wrenching cry, she hurried into the house, but Princess Yi Yang had already fallen ill.
There was no other way, Xia Zhiliao could only give her an injection, which made her fall asleep.
Nanny Cui was about to slap herself again, but was stopped by Wen Heng.
"Madame Cui, wasn't everything fine just now? Why is it like this again?"
Aunt Cui sighed and explained the reason, "I... I was too anxious. I thought that if the little princess was still alive, the princess would definitely be very happy."
Xia Zhiliao looked at the regretful Madam Cui and gently patted her hands. "Madam Cui, I know you mean well, but this matter cannot be rushed. Besides, we don't know if my mother is the child from that year. If she is not, we can all accept this result, but I am afraid that the princess cannot bear it."
Aunt Cui nodded with red eyes, "I know, I was just too impatient just now, it's my fault."
"It's okay. The princess's illness is not serious. She is actually ill in her heart and needs to be helped."
"Miss Zhiliao, please do whatever you say. My princess loves you. Please heal her no matter what."
As Nanny Cui said this, she was about to kneel down to Xia Zhiliao.
Xia Zhiliao quickly stopped her, "Mammy, you can't repay kindness with hatred?"
Aunt Cui was stunned. "I...repay kindness with enmity? I didn't!"
"Why didn't you!" Xia Zhiliao pouted, "If you kneel down in front of me, wouldn't that be cursing me? I can't stand it, isn't that repaying kindness with enmity?"
She blinked playfully, and Aunt Cui finally understood. She felt even more embarrassed and said, "I..."
"Then I'll go wash the dishes."
"Mammy, you don't have to do that." Wen Heng said with a smile.
"Why...why?" Nanny Cui was panicked. Why wasn't she allowed to do anything?
"She just lost, and the loser has to wash the dishes." Wen Heng smiled, then left with his hands behind his back.
Xia Zhi pouted. How could Aunt Cui bear to let such a young child wash the dishes? "Well, let me do it."
"Forget it. I'll admit defeat. Madam Cui, I appreciate your kindness." Xia Zhiliao said angrily.
Humph, damn Wen Heng, there aren't many people who can beat her at rock-paper-scissors.
So angry!
No, no, let’s do it again later.
Unfortunately, it was useless no matter how many times she tried. She once doubted whether Wen Heng knew what she was thinking.
Why does he always win no matter what she does?
Is there any justice in the world?
