Gu Nuo’er tiptoed and touched Nanny Hu’s forehead. Her eyes immediately turned red. “She’s sick. Her temperature is so high!”
The woman was stunned and said, “That’s impossible. She even cooked this morning. She was fine then.”
She walked over and touched Nanny Hu’s forehead. It was indeed shockingly hot.
The woman had no intention of repenting. “It’s just a minor illness. I’ll get her some water boiled from stone pot ashes later and she’ll be fine then.”
After saying that, she kicked the bed that Nanny Hu was lying on. “Hurry up and get up, old thing. Go chop some firewood and boil some water for yourself!”
Gu Nuo’er couldn’t take it anymore and clenched her small hands tightly. “Elder Brother Siming, throw her out!”
Ye Siming walked over without hesitation.
The woman was very shocked and screamed, “What are you guys trying to do? Are you trying to commit murder in broad daylight?!”
Gu Nuo’er stood up and pointed at her angrily. “I’m Princess Gu Nuo’er. I came to visit Nanny Hu today to bring an imperial edict from my father!
“Granny Hu used to put in great effort to take care of me. In order to thank her, my father appointed her as… The World’s Greatest Nanny! You just offended The World’s Greatest Nanny! I’m going to have you arrested and sent to the officials!”
There was such a thing called The World’s Greatest Nanny?
The woman frowned, clearly not really believing her words.
Ye Siming added coldly, “Princess, you’ve remembered wrongly. She’s the Internal Affairs Superintendent Nanny. She’s the superintendent appointed by the emperor. Treating her like this is no different from mistreating a fourth-grade official.
“As the princess has a good relationship with Nanny Hu, she came to visit her in advance. The imperial edict will probably arrive in a while. In that case, I don’t want to waste any time. Do you want me to throw you out or do you want me to capture you and report you to the officials? Pick one yourself.”
The woman was given a fright and quickly retreated. She ran to the curtains and smiled with a terrible expression. “Esteemed guests, don’t be anxious. I’ll go boil water for her. Won’t that do? I’ll go do it.”
After saying that, she retracted her head and ran out.
The words just now were naturally made up by Gu Nuo’er.
However, as long as she brings this up to Gu Yihan, it could become true at any time.
She was only saying this to back Nanny Hu up.
She recalled that when she was a year old and had just learned how to walk, her small body was always shaky and it was easy for her to fall and bump.
Back then, in order to prevent her from falling and hurting her head or getting injured, as long as Gu Nuo’er stood up and learned to walk, Nanny Hu would bend over and follow by her side, using her hands to protect Gu Nuo’er’s small body at all times.
Later on, Nanny Hu’s back became hunched and it was difficult for her to straighten up again.
She doted on Gu Nuo’er very much and had taken care of her almost as if she was her biological granddaughter.
In the past, every time there was thunder and rain, Gu Nuo’er would be woken up by the sound of thunder. During these times, she would always find Nanny Hu at her side, gently patting her small shoulder.
Gu Nuo’er would feel an unprecedented sense of security. Every stormy night, Nanny Hu would stay up almost the entire night to accompany her.
Now that Nanny Hu had returned home, Gu Nuo’er thought that she should be enjoying her retired life. However, Nanny Hu was put through such hardships!
The woman at the door thought about it and was afraid that these two children were lying to her.
Could it be that this stinky old woman had gotten two cunning children from somewhere to work together to deceive her?
In the end, the woman decided to report this matter to the government office. She quietly walked to the door and quickly ran towards the government office.
Let’s see how arrogant they could be when they were arrested!
At this moment, Ye Siming’s ears moved slightly. He sensed that the woman had gone out, but he only glanced sideways and didn’t care.
Gu Nuo’er’s bean-sized tears fell on Nanny Hu’s face and the latter finally woke up slowly.
