Assuming you're using wxruby2, which you should be, ensure that your script is in UTF8 encoding, and that you have $KCODE = 'u' at the top of it.

Have a look at the demo samples/text/unicode.rb which demonstrates the use of controls with labels and content in numerous different scripts including Chinese.

The wxruby-users mailing list is a good place for any questions about the toolkit:
