Chapter 25: Picky Eaters
Just as Shen Xian wanted to go further, suddenly there was a sound in her stomach, even though she covered it very quickly to maintain her image, but when she looked up, she still saw Shi Ling staring at her stomach with a smile.
She was just in a hurry to buy puff pastry and didn't have time to eat breakfast, how could she be so hungry, she actually screamed!
Before she could think of the wording, suddenly the person in front of her bypassed her and said lightly: "Eat." ”
Shen Xian immediately happily followed: "Thank you, Lord Wang." ”
But after just a while, Shen Xian couldn't laugh, because the food here was not her favorite food.
Usually, in order to maintain her figure, she rarely eats heavy oil and spicy things, but this table is full of meat and meat, and there is only a small plate of green vegetables, so she can only chew the green vegetables and stare at Shi Ling's delicious food.
Probably discovering Shen Xian's strange appearance, Shi Ling suddenly turned his head to look at her, and said unhappily: "Picky eater? ”
"I don't eat these."
Shi Ling sneered: "I'm still not hungry enough." ”
After speaking, he sandwiched a thick piece of meat and put it in Shen Xian's bowl, looked at her like a threat, and said: "This is Dali Temple, everyone has to listen to this king, the rules I set, no leftovers, picky eaters, eat." ”
Shen Xian frowned and looked down at the shiny piece of meat in her bowl, looked at Shi Ling's unchangeable face, put the meat in the corner very backbonely, and continued to eat her own vegetable leaves.
There's a big one, 'I just don't eat, what can you do with me?' 'Look.
Shi Ling's eyes narrowed, feeling unhappy with her action, but he didn't have an immediate seizure, just silently finished the rice in his bowl.
When Shen Xian finished eating, she was about to get up but was pressed back into the chair by Shi Ling, and heard him say, "This king said, don't leave food behind." ”
The slices of meat in the bowl are still there.
Shen Xian pouted: "I don't like to eat." ”
"So what?"
"So why does the prince force me to eat something I don't love?" Shen Xian looked up at him slightly, trying to make herself look more pitiful and innocent.
Who knew that Shi Ling didn't eat this set at all.
He tugged at the corners of his mouth: "When you know what it's like to be hungry, you won't find this piece of meat so hard to swallow." ”
Shen Xian immediately retorted: "But I don't have to starve." ”
She was born with fine clothes and jade food, clothes to reach out for food to open her mouth, if that day is really reduced to starvation, it must be in a dream.
Her father and brother love her, and they can't wait to hold the best in the world in front of her, how can they see her starving?
But Shi Ling's face was serious and serious, making Shen Xian think that that day would really come.
Shi Ling looked at her for a long time, and suddenly there was a look of disappointment in his eyes, and he got up with a mocking smile, picked up his chopsticks, picked up the piece of meat that had not been moved, and fed it into his mouth, chewing it in a big gulp.
According to common sense, Shi Ling's actions at the moment were a little ambiguous, but Shen Xian looked at him in a daze, and didn't feel that he had any feeling of wanting to be close to him, but felt that Shi Ling was a little angry with him.
She looked down and thought about it, she just didn't want to eat what she didn't like, if he didn't force this piece of meat to clip it to herself, how could it be wasted? So why is he angry?
"When I was a child, I lived in the people, and I didn't want to eat a piece of sweet potato to fill my stomach, do you know what this piece of meat was to me at that time?" He put down his chopsticks and turned his head to stare at Shen Xian, extremely indifferent.
Shen Xian's heart suddenly chuckled, and she secretly said that she seemed to have done something very outrageous.
Shi Ling: "Shen Xian, I am not a person with you, what you don't like to eat is more important to me than anything else, there are so many people in this world who can't eat enough and don't have enough clothes and no warmth, I don't need a willful wife, if you are not the one who can stand on my side, don't come to mess with me." ”
Shen Xian bit her lower lip and tried to suppress her tears.
She's headstrong? It's kind of a bit.
But she has never been sympathetic to the people, every year she will follow her mother to the temple to give alms, to the poor people to send food, she just doesn't like to eat that piece of meat, just... Just a piece of meat.
She grabbed the garment at her knees, then suddenly let go of it again, and jerked her head up.
"Why did the prince say so much? It's just that I don't like it, even if it's not this meat today, I'm afraid the prince can find out what I'm wrong, you just want an excuse for me to retreat. ”
Shi Ling's brows furrowed.
How could he have meant that?
However, if Shen Xian stayed away from him because of this, it would be fine.
But in the next second, I heard Shen Xian say: "But I want to disappoint the prince, it's just a piece of meat, I don't like to eat it today, maybe I will like it tomorrow, my biggest advantage is that I believe that one thing will never turn back, and people are the same." ”
After speaking, he got up and walked to Shi Ling's side, raised his chin, and pretended to be powerful.
"When the prince was young, it was because I didn't appear yet, if I met the prince, I would take good care of you."
Shi Ling distanced himself from her, wanting to laugh and feeling angry.
"Laughing at what?"
Shi Ling: "Laugh at you." ”
As soon as the two of them walked out of the dining room, they saw that Xiangnong wanted to hand the cheese in his hand to Ah Feng, Ah Feng blushed and didn't dare to take it, and when he saw Shi Ling, he hurriedly turned around and saluted.
Shen Xian winked at Xiangnong, who hurriedly put away the puff pastry and ran behind her.
Ah Feng: "Master, the portrait has been plastered all over the entire Kyoto City, and people will be caught soon." ”
Shi Ling nodded, and suddenly raised his head again: "Send someone back." With that, he left.
Shen Xian originally wanted to chase after her, but who knew that Ah Feng suddenly stopped her, and said with a serious face: "Second Miss Shen, thank you today, the master asked me to send you back." ”
Shen Xian pointed at herself, a little angry.
Glared at Shi Ling's back.
She helped him so much today, she didn't thank him, and said a bunch of inexplicable words, and as a result, she immediately issued an eviction order.
Shi Ling, you have no heart!
Shen Xian's expression on the carriage was not very good.
Although she took back what Shi Ling said today, she also realized one thing, her past with Shi Ling was indeed very different.
Although he is a prince, he was taken away as soon as he was born, and his father said that those years were when the war was raging, Shi Ling grew up in exile all the way and was able to be found alive, it was really God's life.
And not long after she was born, the world was peaceful, and it has been a prosperous age since she was sensible, she knows the suffering of the world, but she has never really felt what the suffering is.
Xiangnon: "Miss? Why did you keep frowning when you came out of Dali Temple? Could it be that the prince said something? ”
Shen Xian pondered for a moment and said, "Is it almost June 15?" ”
"Yes, Madame had already instructed me to prepare it for Miss a few days ago, and when the time comes, I can go directly to the center of the city to set up a shed and give porridge."
Shen Xian: "Don't go to the center of the city, go to the Guoxiang Temple." ”
Xiangnon was puzzled for a while, but nodded in agreement, probably because there were more beggars outside the Kunisshoji Temple.
