Chapter 46 New Wheelchair
Wen Renyuan: "Speaking of Rong Zhuo, is what Master Dusong said true? It's definitely hopeless. I see that my third brother's wife doesn't seem to be worried at all. Don't be afraid that there is some conspiracy."
Rong Bo said disapprovingly, "What conspiracy can she have? She is just the daughter of a seventh-rank official. It would be a great honor for her ancestors to marry my third brother. She must flatter my third brother. She is short-sighted. What foresight can she have? She only thinks about gold, silver, treasures, and a rich life."
Wen Renyuan disagreed, "No matter what, we still have to send someone to keep an eye on them. If the couple defect to King Jing, we will be attacked from behind."
Although Rong Bo did not agree with her words, seeing that she was pregnant, he did not want to say more and put the matter of Chu Sishui behind him.
While the imperial city was in turmoil, His Royal Highness Prince Rui of Wangjia Village in Xiaosheng Farm was enjoying a refreshing breeze.
The wheelchair that the craftsmen had improved before setting off was finally delivered. Chu Sishui asked everyone to move away, leaving only Rong Zhuo in the training room. Rong Zhuo grabbed the handrail and shifted his body to the new wheelchair. After pushing it a few times, he immediately felt that the new wheelchair was more comfortable to sit on.
He opened the door and pushed his wheelchair out.
Chu Sishui squatted down, "How do you feel, my husband? I asked the craftsmen to make this wheelchair according to your body shape. The backrest is raised and the seat surface is widened. The curve of the backrest is also changed according to your body shape. You won't have back pain even if you sit for a long time."
“Although I gave suggestions on the pivot, it was Master He who actually implemented it.”
Rong Zhuo turned it a few more times, "This shaft is lighter than the previous one, and it saves more effort."
Chu Sishui said, "Originally, we wanted to make the wheelchair move faster, so we used a low rolling resistance material. Later, Master He came up with the idea that solving the problem of the axle is actually solving the problem of the wheel. So we replaced all the previous patterned tires with smooth treads, and only carved a circle of fine lines on the outside to prevent slipping. Although the style is not as luxurious as before, the rotation of the axle will be faster than before. Your Highness should not feel that sitting on this wheel has lowered your status, right?"
Rong Zhuo, "You put so much effort into making this, how can I dislike it?"
Chu Sishui said, "But later on, I still asked Master He to carve some patterns on the back of the chair. It is not only breathable, but also looks elegant and beautiful."
Rong Zhuo, "I have no opinion."
Chu Sishui said, "In addition to this, there is actually another wheelchair. The one you are sitting on now, my husband, is one with small wheels, which is suitable for accelerating indoors or on smooth roads. The wheel diameter is probably a little smaller, and the cross-section is also slightly narrower."
"Master He, take the other one down as well."
Chu Sishui pointed at the one with the big wheels and said, "This one is mainly used for going out. Because the diameter of the wheel is increased, the wheel can roll longer at the same speed. So it is suitable for long-distance travel and will save effort on slopes. Would you like to try it, my husband?"
Rong Zhuo nodded, and everyone immediately retreated.
Chu Sishui supported him to move horizontally, and waited for him to sit firmly. "I saw a slope next to Wang Qingqing's house last time. Why don't we try there?"
Rong Zhuo nodded.
The two walked out. Granny Wang noticed that the wheelchair had changed as she walked along the road. "Mr. Rong's wheelchair has changed. It looks like the wheels are bigger than before."
Chu Sishui nodded, then remembered that Rong Zhuo didn't like strangers talking about his legs and wheelchair, so she lowered her head and took a peek.
Rong Zhuo, "I'm not that sensitive."
Chu Sishui was embarrassed, "I said that my husband's stomach was big enough to support a boat. Now that his appetite has increased, I guess he can even sail the sea now."
Rong Zhuo, "Stop talking nonsense."
The two said goodbye to Mrs. Wang and walked for a while before reaching the slope. "Husband, do you want to go up by yourself? Or should I push you?"
Rong Zhuo glanced at the ground and found no large stones. "I'll try it myself."
After saying that, he pushed the wheel with his hand. Since the diameter and width of the wheel were increased, the slope did not require much effort. The major general climbed up in a short while. Chu Sishui followed behind him and saw that his forehead was only slightly sweaty, so he knew that the wheel modification was successful.
When they reached the top of the slope, Chu Sishui looked at the extent of the downhill slope and said, "Husband, do you want to try going downhill? I asked Master He to set up a hand connector. If you feel that the speed is too fast, you can press the connector to slow down."
Rong Zhuo looked at the downhill route with some hesitation. Ever since he became disabled, he had to be pushed around by others. It was not until the princess married him and improved the threshold of the mansion that he could enter and leave the mansion freely.
He became a disabled person for a short period of time without anyone to follow him. After all, the terrain of Prince Rui's Mansion was flat, and even if there were a few high grounds, they were cleared by Eunuch Wu's men.
So Rong Zhuo, who had never gone down a slope by himself, was a little hesitant.
Chu Sishui saw through his concerns and said, "I'll catch you from below. I won't let you fall out of the wheelchair or make a fool of yourself."
Rong Zhuo's eyes darkened, his thin lips pursed tightly and then relaxed, "Just stand by the roadside."
"good."
Rong Zhuo no longer hesitated and pushed the wheels, and the wheelchair slid down quickly from the highest point. He had not experienced such a refreshing moment in a long time, as if he was back to his childhood when he watched his imperial sister and brother skate freely on skateboards.
He did not press the hand connector, allowing the wheelchair to take him further. Chu Sishui followed him on the side of the road until the wheelchair slid to the stable ground. "Well, I didn't lie to you, this wheelchair is very stable and will never make you look bad."
After saying that, I wiped the sweat from his forehead. He was still a little nervous.
Rong Zhuo calmed himself down, turned his head to look at the slope, lowered his brows and thought for a while, then pushed the wheelchair up again and let himself slide down the slope again.
He went back and forth several times until Chu Sishui stopped him, "Why did my husband suddenly become playful? Although the wheelchair is stable, it is not 100% stable."
Rong Zhuo coughed lightly and turned his head away, "I just want to try it a few more times."
Chu Sishui did not expose it, "Okay, then we'll come again tomorrow. We'll stop here today."
She stepped back behind the wheelchair, pushed the wheels, and they returned to the courtyard.
Seeing that he was still excited, Chu Sishui went to the West Garden and took out the eighth pill when no one was around, then brought some tea and went out.
Rong Zhuo took it and ate it without asking, "Now my legs feel warm for longer and longer periods of time. When I was taking the medicinal bath yesterday, I still felt a little pain."
Chu Sishui pretended to be surprised, "Really? That means your legs are recovering. Originally you were told not to intensify your training, but now you can extend your training time, especially the stretching and massage of your lower limbs."
Rong Zhuo said with joy, "Really?"
Chu Sishui, "It's just that you need to combine work and rest. If you feel tired, don't force yourself to train."
Rong Zhuo, "I'm not tired, I'll go now."
Chu Sishui, "..."
"Lunch will be served soon."
Rong Zhuo, "You can use it first, no need to wait for me." He turned around and called Feijian to push him away.
Chu Sishui: You really believe everything you hear. You used to say that you don’t believe people who can stand up, but now you’ve been slapped in the face.
