Chapter 33: Ginger Soup
Luhexiang is very valuable, and it is even hard to find when it is scarce.
Not only are the required spices precious, but the requirements for the perfumer's craftsmanship are also extremely strict.
But because Shen Yulou likes it, Shen Yanning orders someone to buy Luhexiang every month, which is a lot of money in the house.
At this time, the smell of dew and incense came from Shen Yulou's body, the aroma was shallow, the intensity was moderate, it seemed to be there or not, but it lingered for a long time.
But Shen Fengxu didn't like it.
So Shen Fengxu retreated a little, walked to the window, pushed open the window, and suddenly a strong wind swept and the rain rushed in his face.
The candles flickered, and the room was dark for a while.
Shen Fengxu took a breath of fresh air, turned to look at Shen Yulou, and asked, "It's getting late, isn't the eldest sister going to go back to rest early?"
"With such a heavy rain, I'm afraid I won't be able to go back for a while. Shen Yulou sat back very calmly, "I think the sixth sister won't rest early, so it's better to talk to me for a while." ”
"Is there anything else the eldest sister wants to say to me?" Shen Fengxu just laughed, "Qing'er is the eldest sister's servant after all, and the place of death is so unclear, the eldest sister should think about her somewhat." ”
"Why Qing'er died, Sixth Sister should know better than anyone else. ”
At this moment, Dansha walked in with a bowl of steaming ginger soup.
"Girl, the ginger soup is ready!"
Shen Fengxu stepped forward to take the ginger soup from Dansha's hand, gently scooped it with a porcelain spoon, walked to Shen Yulou's side, and said, "Eldest sister, let's drink some ginger soup to warm up first." ”
As he spoke, he scooped up a spoonful and sent it to Shen Yulou's mouth.
"Don't bother the sixth sister, I'll do it myself. ”
Shen Yulou wanted to reach out and take it, but Shen Fengxu insisted on refusing.
With a gentle smile on her face, she said, "Why should the eldest sister be so polite, this is what I should do." ”
Shen Yulou couldn't resist her, so he had to let Shen Fengxu feed her soup, but as soon as Fang entered the mouth, Shen Yulou's color suddenly changed, and he was no longer as graceful and peaceful as he always was, and he was about to spit out the ginger soup.
This is ginger soup?!
It's really ...... Hard to swallow!
She spat on the veil.
Not only ginger slices, but also peppercorns, minced garlic, coriander, sugar cubes, raw vinegar, etc...... In short, all the seasonings, suitable or not, were added to this bowl of ginger soup.
Shen Yulou looked into the bowl.
Because the sky was dark and there was a frightening wind, the candles in the house were flickering, and the vision was blurred. Therefore, Shen Yulou didn't distinguish it carefully, but now that he looked closely, he found that the bowl was mottled in color, and there was even foam, just looking at it like this, it was a little disgusting.
"Why don't you drink it, eldest sister?" Shen Fengxu comforted, "Although this ginger soup is a little hard to drink, it is also Fengxu's heart, and the eldest sister must not live up to it." ”
"Nope. Shen Yulou waved his hand and was about to get up, "Qing Yu, let's go." ”
Shen Fengsu pressed Shen Yulou and said with a smile: "That's not good, the eldest sister came all the way in the rain, if you don't drink the ginger soup, how can your body warm up? ”
Looking at the smile on Shen Fengxu's face, Shen Yulou suddenly felt cold in his heart. This is Shen Fengxu's snowmelt courtyard, she and Qing Yu are weak, how can they beat Shen Fengxu?
"Sixth sister......" Shen Yulou said with some difficulty.
Shen Fengsu interrupted Shen Yulou's words, raised his eyes to look at her, and smiled on his face: "If the eldest sister doesn't drink this ginger soup today, Fengxu won't let the eldest sister leave." ”
As Shen Fengxu's voice fell, there was rolling thunder.
Deafening.
"Eldest sister, you are not a child anymore, how can you not know the truth that good mouth bitter medicine is good for disease......" Shen Fengxu still had a soft smile on his face.
So Shen Yulou settled down and said, "Okay, since it is the sixth sister's intention, I will naturally not live up to it." ”
Such righteousness is awe-inspiring, as if it is to be heroic and righteous.
Shen Fengxu scooped up another spoonful and sent it to Shen Yulou's mouth.
Shen Yulou took a spoonful of ginger soup into his mouth, and suddenly a very irritating smell poured into his brain, only to feel that all his internal organs were turned over, and he couldn't wait to vomit out all the food from last year.
But looking at Shen Fengxu's gentle and smiling face, Shen Yulou could only swallow this mouthful of ginger soup under pressure.
Qing Yu on the side couldn't stand it: "Girl......"
Dansha glanced at her: "The two girls have a deep sisterly relationship, you and I don't have to talk much." ”
In the end, it was in the snowmelt courtyard, and it was such a gloomy and rainy day, Qing Yu had no choice but to swallow back his words.
Seeing Shen Yulou drink it, Shen Fengsu bent his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "It doesn't seem that it can't be swallowed so much." ”
Then he scooped it to Shen Yulou one spoonful after another.
Shen Yulou actually drank it one bite at a time.
She knew that it was impossible for Shen Fengxu to poison the soup, and it was only difficult to drink, not to mention that Shen Fengxu personally fed her.
Until you finish drinking.
Shen Fengsu put the porcelain bowl aside, and when the porcelain bowl landed on the table, it made a heavy sound, making everyone's eyes fall on Shen Fengxu.
There was no smile on Shen Fengxu's face, she just said calmly and calmly: "Dansha, open the door and let the eldest sister go back." ”
But Shen Yulou didn't get up.
"What's the matter, doesn't the eldest sister want to go back?"
Shen Yulou just looked at Shen Fengxu, his face was as calm and calm as ever: "I've been thinking, if you were my sister, it would be fine." ”
A very inexplicable sentence.
Shen Fengxu raised his eyebrows slightly: "Am I not?"
"Nope. Shen Yulou shook his head and sighed, "I envy Baitang for having a sister like you, but I don't." ”
"The eldest sister said this, if the fourth sister listened, it would be sad. ”
Shen Fengsu was a little unsure, but Shen Yulou just looked at her fixedly, as if there was a goal she had been pursuing in Shen Fengxu.
Shen Yulou has always disliked Shen Yuxiang.
But no matter what, Shen Yuxiang is still her mother's sister-in-law, and this will not change at any time.
Shen Fengxu only had a smile on her lips, and she didn't want to carefully distinguish the meaning of Shen Yulou's words, because there was no way back between her and Shen Yulou.
After a while, Shen Yulou stood up and said, "Qing Yu, let's go." ”
Qing Yu hurriedly took the umbrella and lantern in his hand from the side.
"The eldest sister walks slowly. Shen Fengxu's voice was calm.
Shen Yulou and Qing Yu had already gone out.
But Shen Fengxu's eyes always followed Shen Yulou, until Shen Yulou's back disappeared into the boundless rainy night, and he could no longer distinguish it.
"Girl......" Cinnabar called softly.
Shen Fengxu seemed extremely sleepy, she let out a long breath and said, "Rest." ”
With that, she lay on the bed and pulled the brocade quilt.
The night was dark.
