Is this what it means to be moved?
Gu Yingxue felt that she had fallen for Cheng Huaijin. Her heart was racing and her cheeks were burning. She was sure that she didn't have a cold or fever, and she was sure that she didn't have a heart condition and was a girl who could run and jump.
Therefore, she was certain that she had fallen for Cheng Huaijin.
"Your aunt and second aunt will be here soon. I've asked the maid to get you some hot water and a towel to apply to your sore throat. How are you feeling? Does it still hurt so much?" After instructing the maid, Cheng Huaijin came in, pulled up a round stool, sat down on the edge of the bed, and looked at Gu Yingxue.
"Huh?" Gu Yingxue was still lost in her girlish thoughts when Cheng Huaijin suddenly looked at her, and she really didn't hear what Cheng Huaijin was saying.
"Are you in so much pain that you've gone mad?" Cheng Huaijin laughed, then looked at her feet. "You were screaming in pain just now, so I didn't dare to show you closely. Judging from your silly look, you must have been in a lot of pain, so much so that you've gone mad."
After returning to the Great Zhou Dynasty, Cheng Huaijin is no longer so gloomy under the influence of the Gu family.
Before the incident, he was a lively, cute, and very mischievous young boy. The long-lost relaxed atmosphere made him feel very at ease in the Gu family, which is why he could talk to Gu Yingxue so casually.
"Ouch, little Jin, you should have said that, now it hurts again!" Gu Yingxue suddenly remembered that she had sprained her ankle, and the consequence of remembering was that it hurt terribly.
She didn't care whether she was attracted to the boy in front of her or not; her feet were just hurting terribly.
Grandma Gu, Madam Zhang, and Cai Xiaolian also arrived at this time. When they heard Gu Yingxue cry out in pain, they all went forward to ask her what was wrong.
Cheng Huaijin stood up and stepped back, touched his nose, and smiled.
This silly girl, she's so engrossed in her thoughts that she's forgotten the pain.
After a while, Grandma Xiao also came over with her medicine box. She was about to take off her socks for Gu Yingxue to examine, so Cheng Huaijin left Gu Yingxue's room.
Then he heard Gu Yingxue's very loud shout.
"Ah! It hurts, it hurts, Grandma Xiao, it hurts..."
"Ouch! Gently, gently, ouch!"
"Ah! Great-aunt, it hurts! Ouch! Second Aunt, ouch..."
Cheng Huaijin laughed even harder.
She had never seen a girl so afraid of pain.
Soon, the shouts inside the room subsided. Grandma Xiao finished applying the medicine to Gu Yingxue and wrote a prescription, instructing the maid to go to the Gu family's storeroom to get the medicine and brew it for Gu Yingxue.
Because Gu Xin learned medicine from Grandma Xiao, the Gu family had a small pharmacy, and they had most of the common medicinal herbs at home, so they didn't need to go out to buy them.
After listening to Grandma Xiao say for a while that the problem wasn't serious, Cheng Huaijin bid farewell to the Gu family. He still had to go to the Prince Rui's residence, where he had arranged to play with the princess and prince from the west. Now that Gu Yingxue was alright, he had to go there as well.
...
Gu Xin and Gu Si didn't eat at Prince Rui's Mansion. Gu Ren had agreed to treat them, so the sisters came back.
The first thing I did when I got back was to visit Gu Yingxue.
"Xue'er, my brother said you're fine. We were dragged along to play, so we only just got back. How are you feeling? Are you feeling better after applying the medicine?" Gu Xin sat down on the edge of the bed, looking at the listless Gu Yingxue, and asked with a smile.
"Yes, it hurt a lot at first, but it doesn't hurt much now if I don't move," Gu Yingxue said.
"Xue'er, how did you manage to twist your ankle on flat ground? Did something make you so careless that you didn't watch your step?" Gu Si teased, seeing that she was indeed not seriously injured.
