Lu Yingying glanced at him disapprovingly.
Wen Tingyun: "..."
Wen Nongnong gloated, saying that her second brother had a bad mouth and was now being condemned by the whole family.
"It's good that you're awake. Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?" Madam Xu sat down by the bed, touched her daughter's forehead, and asked softly.
Wen Nongnong felt a warmth in her heart and shook her head, "I'm fine, I don't feel unwell."
"That's good." Upon hearing this, Madam Xu's expression relaxed, and everyone else breathed a sigh of relief as well.
The Wen family members did not mention her encounter with the assassin yesterday, but simply chatted and laughed with her.
Madam Xu took the chicken porridge that Lv Qiao had brought in and wanted to feed it to Wen Nong Nong herself.
Wen Nongnong wanted to refuse, but when she met Xu's gentle and loving gaze, she couldn't say the words of refusal and just obediently opened her mouth.
Mrs. Xu first blew on the porridge to cool it down, and then fed it to her spoonful by spoonful.
A feeling of warmth welled up in Wen Nongnong's heart.
After feeding her the porridge, the Wen family sat with her for a while before getting up to say goodbye.
"I'll see you off." Wen Nongnong threw back the covers and was about to get out of bed.
"Don't get up, rest well." Seeing this, Madam Xu quickly stopped her. "Lie down quickly."
Wen Nongnong had no choice but to lie back down in bed.
Lu Yingying lowered the curtain for her, "Nongnong, rest well, we'll head back now."
"Okay." Wen Nongnong, inside the tent, obediently replied, but her eyes involuntarily reddened. In her previous life, she grew up in an orphanage and had never been treated so well. The warmth given to her by the Wen family made her feel greedy.
Just as the Wen family was about to leave, Madam Xu said to Wen Shiqing with some concern, "Nongnong has been frightened. Why don't we tell the Prince to bring her back to the Wen residence for a few days? I can also help her recover."
Upon hearing this, Wen Nongnong couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation.
She likes the Wen family and cherishes the warmth they give her, and wants to live with them.
Wen Shiqing was also a little worried when he thought of his daughter's still slightly pale face. However, his daughter was already married and it wouldn't be so easy for her to go back to live with him. After thinking for a moment, he said, "I'll go and talk to the Prince."
"What does the Duke want to say to me?" Gu Linchao walked in at that moment and overheard his words.
Madam Xu spoke first: "Your Highness, it's like this, although Nong Nong has woken up now, her face is still pale. We would like to take her back to the Wen residence for a few days to recuperate."
Gu Linchao glanced towards the bed. The bed curtains were lowered, but he could still see the person inside. Seeing that she was awake, he breathed a sigh of relief and looked back at Madam Xu.
"I understand that my wife loves the princess dearly, but the princess does not need to stay at the Wen residence. She can recuperate at the prince's residence, and I will take care of her."
Upon hearing this, Madam Xu wanted to say something more, but Wen Shiqing stopped her. "In that case, I entrust Nong Nong to Your Highness's care." After a pause, he added, "My daughter has been pampered since childhood, so Your Highness will have to put in a lot of effort."
Gu Linchao nodded and said gently, "I understand, Your Highness, please rest assured."
Seeing this, Wen Shiqing could say nothing more and took his leave with his wife and children.
Once the person left, the room became quiet.
Wen Nongnong lay on the bed and saw Gu Linchao standing still through the curtains. She couldn't help but think of how she had fainted from fright yesterday and felt a little ashamed. She was so useless. Was Gu Linchao laughing at her?
She bit her lip and buried her face in the blanket.
