Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

Chapter 194 We Are Not Gods (Part [-])

From the moment Nanny Qian decided to stand up, she had already prepared for the worst.It is very likely that this young girl will hand herself over to the crown prince to improve her relationship with the Eastern Palace, and even enter the Eastern Palace since then.

It's not impossible.

People outside the wall always feel that the flowers inside the wall are more fragrant than the flowers outside, and they try their best to squeeze their heads into the wall of the Eastern Palace.Even those of them who are servants always feel that the current people in the East Palace have more face than those in other places, don't they?

No matter what the final outcome is, after all, I want to make up for the irreparable guilt on the new master, so that I can also seek peace of mind.In the final analysis, it is still a kind of self-righteous selfishness.

So she knelt, waiting for Ji Wuyan's decision.

"Heh..." The woman laughed softly, the smile was completely different from the sneer just now, it seemed relieved and relieved.There was a rustling of the clothes, and soon a pair of exquisite embroidered shoes appeared on the steps. The uppers were the same color as the clothes, embroidered with flowers that had never been seen before, and there were a few round pearls embedded in the stamens.

The hand on the ground was grabbed, and the woman leaned over to help, "Please get up."

She used "please".

Qian Momo stood up tremblingly, seeing that the girl did not intend to blame her, she raised her eyes to look over, and was startled, "Miss... you..." In the early autumn when it was raining heavily, the heat was no longer there, but on the girl's forehead, there was A thin layer of sweat, a face that was white and bloodless, it seemed...

"It's okay." Ji Wuyan smiled, and the smile was also tired. She helped Madam Qian, took a step back slightly, and said, "It's okay, it's just that I'm a little tired from all the trouble. Go back and rest first. I remember what I said... thank you."

She sincerely thanked her, even though these words were of little use to herself—she never let go of her guard against Dong Gong.

But for the relationship between himself and Qian Momo, this is a breakthrough step.When Li Yuqi was around, she inadvertently caught a glimpse of someone wandering past the gate of the courtyard, wearing a coir raincoat, going back and forth several times, and walking slowly, Ji Wuyan guessed that it was Mother Qian, so she waited for this person in the corridor for a while.

Qian Nanny left with a thousand thanks.

Taoyao came out of the house with a face of disapproval, "Girl, you shouldn't be willful." As she said that, she quickly supported Ji Wuyan, who was staggering on her feet, and shouted inside, "Ziqiu, find Mr. Chen !"

……

The Ji family, once again turned their backs on their backs.

It's just that the girl who could still look coquettish as usual yesterday was lying on the bed drowsy today.

The injury was indeed on the right arm.

It is impossible for any unhealed wound to withstand You Lingxi's probing so hard - the wound has long since opened.It's just that Taoyao is good at camouflage, and is best at making various human skin masks, including...human skin gloves.

Ji Wuyan wrapped her entire arm in layers of bandages, and put on a layer of human leather gloves.But it was limited to this, the wound that should be opened would definitely open, and the blood that should flow out would still flow, time was running short, and this set of camouflage was limited to the right arm.

If you really try on the clothes according to You Lingxi's wishes, You Lingxi will soon find out that Ji Wuyan's arms are not normal in thickness.

It's just that the two of them didn't know each other well after all, and they never held arms like sisters. Of course, You Lingxi didn't know the thickness of Ji Wuyan's original arms, and he didn't realize that they were thicker.

This level is over.

But there was a price to pay.

When Taoyao took off the human skin gloves for Ji Wuyan who had fallen asleep, she couldn't hold back the blood-soaked bandages under the human skin gloves, her eyes were red.Ziqiu kept wiping tears on the sidelines, weeping, and while weeping, he was wronged for his own girl, "When did the girl suffer so much... This Yanjing City is really a place to stay. The eldest girl is not here. Now, now that the girl is here, the injury is added to the wound... woo...When did the girl get hurt when she was in Yunzhou... If the old lady knows, she will die of heartache!"

Not only the old lady was distressed, but Mr. Chen was also distressed, and everyone present was distressed.

What a little girl, she didn't weigh much at first, but she became thinner these days and her face was sunken.Cen Yan watched from the side, sniffed, and reminded, "Old Chen...you have to be careful, girls love beauty, don't leave scars..."

From the beginning to the end, Mr. Chen kept a dark face and didn't say a word, and he didn't say anything bad when he heard the words. He just sighed, and after a while, he sighed again, "I'm a doctor, not a god..." How could such a wound not leave a scar?
"It's a good thing to be able to recover..."

Gu Cuo was taken aback, and wanted to ask what it meant, but the meaning couldn't be more clear, so why bother to ask?He looked at the little lump curled up and down in the quilt, and his voice trembled, "Old Chen...you should know how important her hands are..."

It was a pair of hands playing Tianxin.

Old Chen didn't speak, and he didn't sigh anymore.This old man who has always had a knife mouth and a bean curd heart is now not even willing to spit out a knife.After treating the wound with a dark face and pursed mouth, he breathed a sigh of relief, stood up with his legs propped up, and called to the ancient house sitting by the bed, "You... Come out with me."

Gucuo looked at Ji Wuyan who was asleep, then at Old Chen who was already walking out, gave a few orders, and then followed out.

The rain is still falling, but the wind has died down.

The two of them stood side by side on the porch outside the door, looking at the pond that had been filled with water for most of the day.Gu Cuo spoke first, and asked, "How is she...?" His voice was hoarse and dull.

Mr. Chen put his hands behind his back and didn't answer.

The atmosphere was oppressive and dull.

After a long while, Mr. Chen glanced at the ancient house, and then said, "Since I know her hands are important, I shouldn't let her mess around. You too, let her do everything, thinking that I can take care of all the troubles for her, She is not afraid of anything... Gucuo, I am not a god, and neither are you. In this world, there are always diseases that I can't cure, and there are always things that you can't take care of, and there are always things that your entire Gu family can't take care of Stall... so what will you do then?"

Most of the autumn rains in the south of the Yangtze River are lingering.

But the autumn rain in Yanjing City is full of lightning, thunder, and howling wind. Looking at the fallen leaves all over the courtyard, and the orchids that have been beaten to the ground without care to clean them up, the ancient house admits in a low voice, "I... never thought about it." Looking after her, protecting her, and cleaning up the mess for her, seems to have become so proficient that it has become an instinct.

"Then you should really think about it from today on." Chen Lao didn't look at him, just lowered his head with his hands behind his back, he sighed after holding his breath for a long time, "I still say that... Gucuo, we are not gods, we cannot protect her forever."
