Chapter 64 - Joking about Your Body
The servant was Shen Mu Sheng's man, and he respectfully lowered his head, "Reporting to the madame, Young Master has asked me to prepare porridge for Young Mistress, Young Grandmother has just woken up …"
Without even lifting his head, the Old Lady Shen snorted, "Young madam? "It's cried out quite smoothly …" Old Lady Shen's voice was cold, the servant was stunned, his head lowered, not daring to speak another word.
"It's just that my body is dizzy. Is it really that precious? "Hmph, with such a weak and sickly body, how could I become the Shen family's mistress? What a joke …" The Old Lady Shen continued to speak, his eyes filled with dissatisfaction.
"Grandmother, don't be angry, let me help you go back and rest. The ancestral worship ceremony has been going on for so long, you should be tired …" Qiao Yi Tong interrupted at the right moment.
When the Old Lady Shen heard this, he let out a sigh and walked towards her own courtyard.
Seeing that the old lady had left, the servants hurriedly entered the room. In the room, Shen Mu Sheng was helping Qin Ruo Chu up and had placed a pillow behind her so that he could sit on the bed.
"Are you still dizzy?" Shen Mu Sheng held Qin Ruo Chu's hand and asked. Qin Ruo Chu shook his head, "I'm fine now, after I woke up, I feel much better." However, Qin Ruo Chu did not think much of it, as though the person who fainted in front of everyone was not her.
Seeing Qin Ruo Chu's casual appearance, Shen Mu Sheng's pupils went cold, as she stared fixedly at Qin Ruo Chu's pretty little face.
At first, Qin Ruo Chu did not pay much attention to it, but when he was stared at by Shen Mu Sheng's cold eyes, he could not take it anymore and lost. You... Are you angry? " Qin Ruo Chu held back for a long time before he managed to say a single sentence.
Shen Mu Sheng stared at Qin Ruo Chu with his obsidian eyes. He did not respond, nor did he make his next move. Qin Ruo Chu was guilty, he did not dare look into those calm eyes, and after looking around the room once, he closed his eyes, as though he had made his decision, and realized that he had opened his eyes.
"Sorry …" I didn't mean to, I didn't expect myself to faint, and I'm sure I brought you a lot of trouble. The Ancestral Worship Ceremony is such an important and serious occasion, I'm sorry … "
Qin Ruo Chu kept apologizing with a bitter face. She thought Shen Mu Sheng had interrupted the ancestral worship ceremony just because she fainted and was angry at her. Seeing Qin Ruo Chu's panicked look and not knowing what to do, Shen Mu Sheng felt an indescribable pain in his heart.
He embraced Qin Ruo Chu tightly, "Is this wrong?" A low voice sounded in Qin Ruo Chu's ears, causing him to hurriedly nod his head, "Sorry, it's all my fault, it's all my fault …" Qin Ruo Chu said with a sobbing tone.
Shen Mu Sheng closed his eyes. Why is this girl so stupid? "She suddenly pulled Qin Ruo Chu out of her embrace and pinned him in front of her. Do you know what's wrong with you? " Shen Mu Sheng hated that he couldn't open Qin Ruo Chu's little head to see what kind of arrangement it was inside.
Being asked by Shen Mu Sheng, Qin Ruo Chu blanked out for a bit and also forgot to cry. He took a deep breath and looked fixedly at Shen Mu Sheng.
"I... "I know." Qin Ruo Chu replied cutely, but at the same time, she was a little guilty. After being asked by Shen Mu Sheng, her tone carried a hint of uncertainty.
Shen Mu Sheng could not help it, and sighed: "Oh you, why are you so silly, you must tell me when your body is not feeling well, you suddenly fainted, do you know how worried I am?" Shen Mu Sheng said in a serious tone. This seemed to be the first time he expressed his feelings so blatantly.
Qin Ruo Chu was startled, her teary eyelashes blinked, only then did she understand what Shen Mu Sheng meant. Then, Qin Ruo Chu laughed.
Shen Mu Sheng said as the color in his eyes deepened. You're still laughing? "
Qin Ruo Chu laughed even more happily, her entire face turning into a flower.
"Nothing to tell me?" After a while, Shen Mu Sheng coldly said.
Qin Ruo Chu blinked his eyes, and then understood what Shen Mu Sheng meant, "Sorry, I won't hide anything from you in the future, when I arrive at the mountain in the morning, I did feel uncomfortable, and my head was spinning, but... "But I thought I would persevere for a while and at the very least tell you after the ancestral sacrifice. I didn't expect …"
While talking, Qin Ruo Chu's voice had disappeared and his head was lowered, like a child who had been discovered doing something wrong. Shen Mu Sheng was truly angry, he was angry at Qin Ruo Chu for making fun of his own body.
"Do you know how dangerous it is? "He's actually making fun of his own body?" Shen Mu Sheng did not say any heavy words, but the words that came out was very heavy, and struck on Qin Ruo Chu's heart.
Qin Ruo Chu bit her lips. Only after hearing what Shen Mu Sheng said, did she realize that she had actually done such an unwise thing. However, Qin Ruo Chu was still worried about the ancestral worship ceremony.
After hesitating for a long time, he finally asked, "Then, do I affect the completion of the ancestral worship ceremony?" Qin Ruo Chu asked carefully, afraid that he might really affect the ancestral worship ceremony.
Seeing Qin Ruo Chu's nervous little face, Shen Mu Sheng finally smiled and stroked her head, "No, don't worry. The ancestral worship ceremony will continue as usual …" Shen Mu Sheng did not tell Qin Ruo Chu that he was absent from the Ancestral Worship Ceremony.
As expected, Qin Ruo Chu laughed happily, and the worry that had been hanging in his heart was finally relieved. Just at this time, Qin Ruo Chu's stomach suddenly made a disappointing sound.
"Goo …"
Qin Ruo Chu, "..."
Shen Mu Sheng, "..."
"Haha …" Qin Ruo Chu laughed awkwardly, his face was completely red, even his neck had turned red.
Because he was too nervous in the morning, Qin Ruo Chu ate a little bit of breakfast. Now that he had slept for a while, he was going to starve.
Shen Mu Sheng could not help but laugh, "Hungry?" Qin Ruo Chu nodded his head, wishing he could find a hole to hide in.
Just as Qin Ruo Chu was about to die from embarrassment, he heard a knock on the door. Shen Mu Sheng released her hand and got up to open the door. He heaved a sigh of relief and couldn't help but touch his stomach.
"Eh …" Qin Ruo Chu thought that he had smelled wrongly, why was there a scent? Qin Ruo Chu wrinkled his nose and took a whiff again, which was getting denser and denser.
"Stop smelling, quickly get up and eat something, your stomach is already growling." Shen Mu Sheng smiled as he placed the porridge on the table beside his bed and then opened the lid.
The fragrance immediately became stronger. "How fragrant …" Qin Ruo Chu could not help but swallow his saliva.
Shen Mu Sheng sat down on the side of the bed, blocking Qin Ruo Chu's anxious little hand and holding the white porcelain bowl in his hands. Qin Ruo Chu's eyes were straight as he stretched his white neck to look into the bowl.
"This is the lily porridge I asked the kitchen to make for you. You can't eat too greasy right now, so you should eat some …" Shen Mu Sheng said, while stirring up the porridge with the spoon, so that the porridge would become colder.
