Translator: 549690339

She wandered about the yard every day, silent and bored.

Xiachu brought Xiaoman over to her.

Yun Dai smiled and asked, “Xiaoman, how many radishes did you eat today?”

Xiaoman furrowed her brow, thought for a while, and uncertainly said, “Five… no, it was six.”

Jiang Ning glanced at Xiaoman’s hand.

She still had half a radish left in her hand, it was the long and large green radish, as thick as a baby’s leg.

Most people could only manage to eat half of one.

Yet she had quietly nibbled on so many while squatting in the corner.

Jiang Ning asked with a smile, “Doesn’t your stomach hurt when you eat so many?”

“Nope.” Xiaoman shook her head.

“Don’t eat anymore. Even if your body is strong, it can’t handle this much food.” Jiang Ning asked Dongxie to take the radish from her hand and pour her a glass of honey water. “Drink some water.”

The honey water was sweet and delicious.

Xiaoman drank three bowls of honey water in one go, wanting more, but was stopped by Chunlai with a smile and scold.

“What’s the matter with this girl? It’s like her stomach’s a bottomless pit.” “Xiaoman has nothing to do.” Xiaoman lowered her head, “Did Xiaoman eat too much? Will she eat Princess Consort into poverty?”

Jiang Ning laughed, “Don’t worry, my money is enough for you to eat for your whole life. If you have nothing to do, go outside and have fun. Ask your older sister Xiachu to take you out.”

Xiaoman shook her head, “Xiaoman would cause trouble if she goes out.”

“How so? Xiaoman is so well-behaved.”

“They call me a broom star and an idiot,” Xiaoman said.

“Who said that?” Jiang Ning frowned, sweeping a glance at Chunlai and the others.

Chunlai quickly waved her hand, “Not us, some gossiping servants said it.”

Jiang Ning said, “Xiaoman, don’t listen to them. You’re strong and know martial arts. You can protect me. You’re the most capable person in our family.” “But Xiaoman did not protect Princess Consort well, and let others hurt her,” Xiaoman said, with tears in her eyes.

“It’s not your fault. It’s just that those people were too bad. We can’t feel incapable just because others do bad things, right?” Jiang Ning smiled.

Xiaoman said, “When Princess Consort’s leg is healed and she no longer needs the wheelchair, Xiaoman won’t be useful anymore.”

Previously, she was most proud of being able to carry the wheelchair with Jiang Ning in it all by herself.

Jiang Ning laughed, “If my leg is healed, will you stop protecting me?”

“Princess Consort has more powerful people around her now.”

Xiaoman was referring to Gucheng.

Two months ago, Gucheng officially joined Jiang Ning’s side.

However, during this time while Jiang Ning was recovering at home, she hadn’t seen much of him.

She didn’t even know where he was or what he was busy with now.

More precisely, Jiang Ning didn’t know anything about him, except his appearance and his martial arts skills from their one encounter.

As a man, Gucheng couldn’t casually enter the inner courtyard.

Although Great Sheng Dynasty was open-minded, there were still strict boundaries between men and women.

She didn’t expect Xiaoman to take it to heart, feeling useless and unable to protect her. If Princess Consort didn’t need the wheelchair in the future, her great strength would no longer be needed either.

And she wasn’t as clever or skilled as her sisters in other tasks like needlework and chores.

Even though Xiaoman was a simple-minded child, she seemed a bit depressed. No wonder she was squatting in the corner, nibbling one radish after another. Jiang Ning smiled, “So you think now that I have Gucheng, you’re no longer needed, right?”

“Mhm.”

Xiaoman honestly admitted, “Xiaoman doesn’t like Gucheng, he took Princess

Consort away.”

All the maids in the room laughed, “What a silly girl!”

Jiang Ning laughed, “In that case, follow the young Princess from now on..”
