73 My Peace of Mind



The old lady watched Gu Xinglang serve Yu Xiaoxiao's meal without saying a word, and she became even more angry. Is there any grown man who serves his wife's meal? The emperor's daughter is a golden branch and jade leaf, and her Gu Xinglang was not abused when he grew up!

The old man ate his fill in silence, put down his bowl and chopsticks, and then said to the old lady, "Madam, do you have anything else to say?"

The old lady felt that the old man was gloating over her misfortune. Seeing her being defeated miserably in front of his grandson's wife, the old man was as happy as if he had won a battle himself.

After the old man spoke, Gu Xinglang looked up at the old lady and said, "Grandma, the princess has no ill intentions, she just cares about you. Ask the kitchen to prepare some more porridge and noodles, so that grandma can have some more."

Yu Xiaoxiao stuffed her mouth with shrimp meat, raised her head and defended herself: "Malice? When did this happen?"

Gu Xinglang reached out and consciously served soup to Yu Xiaoxiao, and whispered, "This is pigeon soup, Xiaoxiao, try it."

While Gu Xinglang was serving her soup, Yu Xiaoxiao said to the old lady, "Grandma, I hope you and Grandpa live a long life. If anyone has bad intentions towards you in the future, tell me and I'll slap him in the face!"

When it comes to fighting, Yu Xiaoxiao's body can burst out with murderous aura, and there is also a fierce light in her eyes. The old lady, an old lady in the inner house, is really afraid of Yu Xiaoxiao. After listening to Yu Xiaoxiao's words, she didn't respond.

Gu Xinglang placed a bowl of pigeon soup in front of Yu Xiaoxiao and carefully skimmed off the oil on the surface of the soup.

Yu Xiaoxiao lowered her head to drink the soup. The bowl of soup was placed here by Her Royal Highness the Princess, and the two of them talked about it.

Gu Xinglang said: "Are you full?"

There were still some unfinished dishes on the table. Yu Xiaoxiao saw that Gu Xingnuo was still eating. She thought that the old lady would probably be hungry and would want to eat too. Thinking that she had to save some food for her eldest brother and the old lady, Yu Xiaoxiao nodded to the old man.

"Xinglang?" The old man asked Gu Xinglang again.

Gu Xinglang also nodded. He now had to take medicine every day, and the bitter medicine made him feel sick. If Young Master Gu had not followed Yu Xiaoxiao, the food he ate in a day would probably not be enough to feed a cat.

"Then you can go back to your room first," the old man said, "If the princess still wants to eat, ask the kitchen to make it again. I think it will rain soon, so you should not go out tonight. Go tomorrow."

"Yes, grandpa, I understand," Gu Xinglang agreed to the old man.

Yu Xiaoxiao wiped her mouth with the back of her hand, stood up, said good night to the old man, the old lady, Mrs. Xu, Gu Xingnuo and his wife, and the two little meat balls, then pushed Gu Xinglang away.

The old lady waited until Yu Xiaoxiao left before she said, "Good night? How do royal families greet each other?"

The old man put away the smile on his face and said, "Is this funny?"

Seeing that the two were about to fight, Gu Xingnuo quickly put down his chopsticks and said, "Grandfather, I'm done eating too. Sun and I will go back to our room first."

The old man waved his hand and let his eldest grandson and his family of four go.

Mrs. Xu said, "Father, the daughter-in-law left first."

"Go back to your room," the old man responded.

Only the old couple were left in the dining hall, and the old lady said, "It seems that this princess of our family is very much to your liking, Master."

The old man said, "You can't beat her. Now it seems that even if you scold her, you are still no match for her. What else do you want?"

The old lady sat there sulking.

"The gap is huge," the old man stood up and said, "In the military, people like you are like an egg hitting a rock, overestimating your own capabilities."

The old lady laughed at herself and said, "Yes, I am an old woman without an imperial decree. How can I compete with the royal princess? Even though she suits your taste, don't be too happy too soon. If she dislikes Xing Lang in the future, I'll see what you will do."

The old man said, "What if the princess doesn't know how to do it?"

The old lady sneered. She thought Yu Linglong was a person who was restless at home and she just didn't like people with this kind of personality.

The old man walked out with his hands behind his back and went to take a walk in the back garden to digest his food.

Qinghe brought a few servants in to clean up. Seeing the old lady sitting alone with a gloomy face, she wanted to persuade her not to go against the princess, but when the words came to her lips, Qinghe did not dare to speak.

Yu Xiaoxiao couldn't understand the old lady's mood at the moment. After pushing Gu Xinglang back to the room, she showed him the wound on his foot. The wound was treated with the best medicine, but it was still a little inflamed. When Yu Xiaoxiao touched the wound lightly, Gu Xinglang's expression would be painful.

"Does it hurt?" Yu Xiaoxiao asked.

Gu Xinglang said: "A little bit."

"It's a little inflamed," Yu Xiaoxiao reached out and touched Gu Xinglang's forehead. When the wound is inflamed, people usually have a fever. This is the most direct reaction of the body to fight against germs.

Gu Xinglang's expression didn't change. He asked, "Has the wound worsened?" The ankle injury had been hurting for the past few days, but it was all within Gu Xinglang's tolerance, so Gu Xinglang acted as if nothing had happened.

The temperature of his subordinate's forehead was a little high. Yu Xiaoxiao bent down, put her forehead against Gu Xinglang's, and frowned, "You have a fever."

Gu Xinglang said: "Fever?"

Yu Xiao: "That's what you call a fever."

Gu Xinglang said after a long while: "The imperial physician called fever a fever?"

Yu Xiaoxiao didn't dwell on this question. She covered Gu Xinglang with the quilt and said, "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Gu Xinglang said: "Not bad."

Yu Xiaoxiao gave Gu Xinglang a thumbs up and said, "Hero."

Gu Xinglang smiled and said, "Am I seriously ill?"

Yu Xiao: "Don't be afraid, as long as you are not allergic, I will get some good medicine. The wound inflammation will heal in a few days."

"Allergic constitution?"

"It's okay if you don't know the medical terminology," Yu Xiao said, "Mammy is going to make some medicine for you. I'll wipe your body first."

Gu Xinglang immediately felt uncomfortable and said, "Let the servants come."

"It's not like I haven't seen your naked butt before," Yu Xiaoxiao turned her head and shouted to the door for hot water, while saying to Gu Xinglang, "Why are you still being so pretentious?"

Hypocritical? Gu Xinglang needed a long time to digest this word.

Yu Xiaoxiao wiped Gu Xinglang's body, watched him drink the medicine, and sat on the bedside to talk to Gu Xinglang for a while, until Gu Xinglang took effect of the medicine and fell into a deep sleep. When he asked Nanny Wang about the time, he found that an hour had passed without him noticing.

Nanny Wang looked at Gu Xinglang's slightly red face due to the fever, and said to Yu Xiaoxiao worriedly, "Princess, can the prince consort's injury be healed?"

"It can be healed," Yu Xiao, it's just a tendon splicing. If she doesn't have the ability to treat this injury, those losers who are still living in the apocalypse will probably laugh at her to death, right?

"What if it can't be cured?" asked Nanny Wang.

Yu Xiao: "Can't get better? Anyway, he is still alive, right?"

Nanny Wang asked anxiously, "What are you going to do?"

Yu Xiaoxiao lowered her head and tucked the corner of the quilt for Gu Xinglang, saying nonchalantly, "It's good to be alive. I'm here with you."

Gu Xinglang's eyelids trembled slightly as he fell asleep with his eyes closed. The woman sitting next to him made him feel at ease.
