Chapter 60: Goji Pigeon Soup

The three of them talked for a while, the atmosphere was very harmonious, and Shi Nuannuan was well-behaved on the side, Mrs. Han's mood was even better, if it wasn't for Uncle Liang coming to knock on the door, they would have almost forgotten the time to chat.

"Old lady, it's almost time, it's time for you to take your medicine."

Uncle Liang was followed by two maids, one holding a bowl with a lid in his hand, which smelled like Chinese medicine; The other person was holding a purple sand soup pot in his hand, which looked very elegant and exquisite, and there was a faint fragrance from it.

"It's a sin to drink this medicine." Old Madam Han frowned, and turned her head childishly, "I don't see the difference between drinking and drinking." ”

Uncle Liang seemed to be used to what she would say, and still brought the medicine to her and said, "The prescription prescribed by the doctor this time will not wheezing at night after drinking it, it seems to be quite effective, so you should drink it while it is hot." ”

"Hmph, do you think my wife is making trouble at night and won't let you sleep well at night?"

Uncle Liang smiled bitterly: "Then you really wronged us, you recruited a few new servants just to take care of you, you don't make a fuss, there is really no need to invite them." ”

Uncle Liang has been in the Han family for most of his life, at first he was the personal servant of the old man and the old lady, and then he became the housekeeper step by step, he naturally knows their temper, and sometimes there are some things that only he dares to say, so he deliberately said this to the old lady Han, and he also successfully let her take over the bowl of Chinese medicine that looked very bitter.

Mrs. Han finished drinking the medicine, took the handkerchief from the servant's hand, and said while wiping the medicine from the corner of her lips: "Ahem, it's true, I'm about to step into the coffin, and you still toss me like this......"

"Grandma, I told you, don't say things like that all the time."

Every time she heard similar words, others only dared to persuade her to look away, but Han Munian dared to take it back, and Mrs. Han only ate him, and when she heard that he was unhappy, she immediately changed the topic.

"What's the soup today?"

"Today's wolfberry pigeon soup has a light taste, not greasy, and is your favorite taste."

Uncle Liang said, from the soup cup filled a small half bowl, the pale yellow soup, the surface is refreshing, there is no trace of oil star, red wolfberry and shredded ginger dotted among them, it looks extraordinarily delicious.

Mrs. Han took the bowl he handed over and said, "Scoop a bowl for Nuan Nuan, look at her thin arms and legs, you have to be fat." ”

Shi Nuannuan, who was said to have "thin arms and thin legs", poked her skirt with her hand embarrassedly, and shirked: "Grandma, I don't grow meat in the first place, so it's better for you to drink a little more, it's good for your health." ”

"You don't grow meat because you haven't made up for your body well, you still say! Let the cook at home stew more soup for a while, it is all nourishing and good for the body. Girls, you have to be kind to yourself, you know? Saying that, she blamed Han Munian again, "You too, so much older than Nuan Nuan, Bai Chang is old, isn't it?" I don't usually know how to take care of her body. ”

Shi Nuannuan hurriedly explained for Han Munian: "Grandma, Mu Nian usually asks Aunt Pei to cook a lot of delicious food, you have wronged him." ”

Old Madam Han didn't believe it, but just gave him a disgusted look for him to experience for himself.

Han Munian, who was nagged for no reason, did not defend himself, and even nodded in response: "I know, I will let Aunt Pei stew more soup usually." ”

At this time, Mrs. Han was satisfied, but Shi Nuannuan felt a little inexplicable - what is "making up for the body", why does it sound so awkward? Besides, I have always been in good health, and if I am not sick or sick, what do I need to make up?

Of course, she only thought about this question in her heart.

In the end, she still didn't drink this bowl of nourishing wolfberry pigeon soup, but she didn't notice that after she and Han Munian left the room, Old Madam Han whispered something to Uncle Liang......

Because of Mrs. Han's health, she could only recuperate in bed and couldn't go downstairs to dine with them, so at the dining table, everything was still dominated by Han Rong, the eldest son.

When he changed his clothes and reappeared in front of everyone, his eyes unconsciously stayed on Shi Nuannuan's side for a few seconds, and then gritted his teeth and seemed to endure it, and sat at the front of the table under the service of the servant.

It is said that there are many dining etiquettes in wealthy families, looking at the glittering plates, forks, knives, and wine glasses in front of him, Shi Nuannuan only felt that his head was a little dizzy.

The huge crystal lamp above her head emitted a brilliant light, reflecting the cold white light reflected on those dishes and projecting into her eyes, as if with a cold temperature, so that she couldn't help but shrink her shoulders.

Her slight movements were immediately noticed by Han Munian, and she asked softly, "Is it cold?" ”

Although the voice was slight enough, it was still listened to by others without anyone speaking.

Han Xue pulled her big wavy curls, glanced at Shi Nuan, and took the lead in answering: "The indoor air conditioner has always been at a constant temperature, and I don't feel cold when I wear less than her, I'm afraid this is weakness, right?" ”

What she meant was that Shi Nuan Nuan was not in good health, and in such a family, if the girl who was brought home by her son was not in good health, another deeper meaning was that she might not be infertile, or she could not give birth to the most important son.

Sure enough, Shi Nuan Nuan couldn't understand her words, but the other people all understood, and Han Rong and Zhong Minjia even turned even more pale.

Han Munian didn't seem to hear it, he instructed the servant to go to the cloakroom and get a shawl, and while draping it on her shoulders with his own hands, he said casually: "Nuan Nuan has suffered too many grievances before, so her body has not been well conditioned, isn't it me now, aunt, you don't have to worry about this matter." ”

Han Xue took a sip of lemonade, smiled covertly, and said: "Isn't this what you brought back, Mu Nian, I, as an aunt, know that you have been assertive since you were a child, no matter how big brother and sister-in-law oppose it now, I support your decision, so I said one more thing." If it were someone else's child, I certainly wouldn't say that. Hey, you said yes, husband? ”

She glanced at Lin Daisong beside her, and he immediately nodded and agreed: "Yes, yes, Mu Nian, your aunt is like this, and she mainly cares about you to say this." ”

The thinking of the elders of the Chinese people seems to have always been like this, and they have always used "I am for your good" as an excuse, which sounds like they are concerned about you, but in fact, to put it bluntly, they are nosy.

However, Han Munian didn't say much, and casually answered: "Then thank you aunt for your concern." ”

Because Mrs. Han didn't go downstairs to dine with everyone, she ate Western food today.

Han Rong was about to tell the maid that it was time to serve the food, but saw Uncle Liang coming over with a soup cup, and went straight to Shi Nuannuan's side, carefully placing the soup cup on the plate in front of her.

"This is ......" Shi Nuannuan felt that this soup cup was very familiar.

Uncle Liang replied with a smile: "This is the pigeon soup that the old lady personally asked me to stew in the kitchen, but she didn't add fish maw just now, and she specially asked me to ask the chef to add it to your cup." ”

These words undoubtedly dropped a bombshell in the hearts of everyone, and they all secretly speculated in their hearts about what the old lady meant.

Uncle Liang held the top of the lid with a clean plain cloth and uncovered it, and suddenly, a refreshing fragrance wafted in the air, and just smelling it made people very appetizing.

Han Xue, who was sitting opposite Shi Nuannuan, glanced inside with sharp eyes, and the familiar ingredients made her blurt out: "Isn't this the wolfberry pigeon soup that my mother drank today?" ”

Uncle Liang nodded and replied: "I was upstairs, and the old lady had invited Miss Shi to enjoy it together, but Miss Shi didn't drink it, so the old lady asked me to serve it before the meal, saying that it was for Miss Shi to replenish her body." ”

Today's table is full of Mrs. Han's sons, daughters-in-law, daughters and sons-in-law, all of whom are her closest people, but she only let the kitchen stew for Shi Nuannuan to drink alone, and the meaning of this has caused everyone to think deeply.

Especially Han Rong, he embarrassed Shi Nuan Nuan in front of him, and even drove her out of the house at the expense of hurting his son, at this time, his face inevitably sank, and his black eyes were filled with black fog that people couldn't see clearly.

Facing the inquiring gaze of the Han family towards her, Shi Nuannuan felt more at a loss.

She didn't expect that she had obviously rejected Mrs. Han just now, but she would use this way to let others see that she was special to her, and in this kind of situation where almost no one wanted to see her, she felt that she couldn't bear it.

Her mind was blank, and the only thing she remembered was not to embarrass Han Munian, because her current identity was his girlfriend.

So, she pretended to be calm and sat down in her seat and nodded to Uncle Liang to thank her, her face was still light and pleasant, but in fact, the fingers on her knees were already curled up because of nervousness.

"Thank you, Uncle Liang, grandma is so polite, this was originally what she drank......" She euphemistically expressed to everyone that she didn't mean to think about this soup, I have to say, she is still a little clever.

So Uncle Liang followed her words and continued: "If the old lady knows that it suits your taste, she will be very happy." ”

Among all the people present, the most calm was Han Munian, he saw that Shi Nuan Nuan didn't make a move, naturally leaned over, picked up the soup spoon on her plate, shallow scooped a spoonful and blew it, took it to his mouth and tasted the taste, and then scooped another spoonful with satisfaction, this time after blowing slightly cool, it was very natural to feed Shi Nuan's lips.

"You haven't tasted the craftsmanship of the Han family's chef yet, take a sip? The taste is not bad. ”

With his seemingly unintentional sentence, time seemed to stand still at this moment, if the gaze was tangible, Nuan Nuan could almost be crushed to death now.

Don't say that they were shocked, even Shi Nuannuan herself felt shocked, and even a little uneasy, because in the cherry blossom garden, the two of them have eaten so many meals, but they have always eaten their own food, and they have never acted so intimately, so what scene is he playing now?

Shi Nuannuan looked at his right hand holding the spoon steadily, the fingers were slender and beautiful, and the bones were distinct, in the impression, these hands were used to hold wine glasses and sign documents, but now they were feeding themselves soup, and a strange feeling spread from the bottom of her heart. As for what was strange, she couldn't figure it out for a while.

Seeing her dazed look, Han Munian knew that he should be scaring her.

Originally, this was her whimsical behavior, but it was still too difficult for her to reluctantly cooperate with herself.

Although there was a trace of indescribable loss in her heart, Han Munian didn't want the Han family to grab any words, so she planned to withdraw her hand and drink it herself, but she didn't expect her to seem to come back to her senses, her hairy little head poked forward, her moist lips opened slightly, and she accurately captured the spoon that was about to be withdrawn, took the soup with the right temperature into her mouth and swallowed it, and at the end, she quickly licked the oil flowers on the corner of her lips with the tip of her pink tongue.

"It's delicious, thank you."

A hint of blush flashed on her pink cheeks, and her eyes were shining, like the bright sun outside, revealing the shyness and cuteness that a girl of her age should have.

Just looking at it, his Adam's apple rolled up and down unconsciously, and suddenly he felt very thirsty, so he put the spoon back into her plate, reached out and took two sips of the water glass in his hand.

"Don't do this useless while eating! What kind of system?! Han Rong slapped the table, and the slamming of the tableware made a crisp crashing sound.

Even if everyone wanted to say something at this time, when they saw him open their mouths to reprimand, they all shut up in understanding.

"Open the meal!"

He opened his mouth coldly, and his sharp eyes swept mercilessly over the silent Shi Nuan, as if what was in front of him was not a warm family gathering once a week, but a Hongmen banquet with hidden murderous intentions.
