Chapter 749
He was stating a fact, with concern.
“Not hungry!” I spoke, my body stiffening a little.
His eyes were deep, “Shen Shu, I’m a man, seeing him kiss you would make me hard and cranky, don’t blame me.”
He was talking about last night.
I nodded, not saying anything.
He moved closer to me and buried his head in the nook of my neck, his breath tinged with pain.
Feeling his fingers soothe my back, I gradually eased the stiffness in my body and spoke, “What did he say to you at the Mofilin wedding reception?”
Noticing the pause in his breathing, I continued, “If it’s about the baby, whatever it is about, you can ask me.”
“Good boy!” He lifted his eyes and his thin, cool lips were jammed against mine, “It’s all in the past, let’s just be nice.”
He didn’t want me to continue because the pain would spread.
Leaning against his heart, listening to his heartbeat, I slept soundly this night.
…….
Fu Shen Yan’s romance is rare. The next day, I woke up with a bouquet of nocturnal eustoma beside my bed, faintly scented with flowers, which made people happy.
A card was placed between the flowers, leaving the words, “Eat carefully and wait for me to come home in the evening.”
The heart has a way to return, it will come back even if it goes too far.
I smiled lightly, put the card aside, washed up and went downstairs, Sister Fen seemed to be in a good mood.
Breakfast is ready, put on the table, is unable to eat, but if not, I think he will call to ask Sister Fen.
I would be worried, so I simply ate some.
Seeing that I was going out, Sister Fan couldn’t help but follow me, “Madam, are you going out?”
I nodded my head.
She hesitated for a moment and spoke, “Can I ask if you’re going? Sir said to go back to him wherever he goes.”
I smiled lightly and nodded, “I’m going to check on my aunt so she doesn’t have to worry.”
I couldn’t say whether I liked or hated Fu Qingyin, she was Fu Shenyan’s aunt, one of his few relatives.
It was already a pity that he had not been able to give back to his parents the filial piety that his children were supposed to show, and if he hurt his feelings for Fu Qingyin because of me, he would inevitably look back with regret later.
Fu Qingyin was living in the southern suburbs around the house that Fu Shenyan had previously purchased, and she left Gu’s to run her own small shop.
The daughter who was raised by the Fu family is, after all, rich, and even though her temperament is shockingly strange, the aesthetics and romance in her bones are much higher than those of ordinary women.
Naturally, her resilience is also not that of an ordinary woman.
Running a shop by herself, and a flower shop, is not tiring, but it is inevitable that something will be hard.
Fu Qing Yin has a lot of flowers and plants in her courtyard and some fruits and vegetables in her backyard.
It was late autumn and many of the flowers in the yard had been crushed to death by a few heavy snowfalls.
When I arrived, Fu Qingyin was in the yard with her apron around her, tidying up the flowers and plants that had been crushed.
After looking around, I took off my jacket, found a scythe and started to clean up.
When she saw me, Fu Qingyin was a little surprised, her raw face still not expectant, “What are you doing here?”
I looked down and cleared the weeds, feeling a little sorry for the yellow chrysanthemums that had been crushed to death, most of these chrysanthemums bloomed after winter, if they had been raised in Jiangcheng, they would have bloomed for a long time.
But the snow season comes early in the capital, so they will inevitably be crushed to death by the snow.
“Fu Shenyan said you haven’t been feeling too well lately, so I came over to see you.” We all know that we are not jovial in each other’s hearts, so I don’t have to deliberately curry favour with her.
She hummed and looked down as she continued to deal with her yard.
Chapter 750
But after all, she is old and has been pampered for many years, and after spending a long time in the courtyard, it is inevitable that her back will ache.
I saw her limping on a bamboo chair in the courtyard, covering her back and frowning in pain.
I cleared the few remaining weeds from the yard, then washed my hands and handed her the pain-relieving medicine I had brought.
She frowned, not wanting to take it.
I pursed my lips, “It’s not poison, it’s painkillers.”
After saying that, I placed the medicine in her hand, then went into the house, poured a cup of hot water and handed it to her.
She froze slightly, probably couldn’t help the pain, and ended up with the gla*s of water, taking the medicine down.
I put the rest of the medicine aside and said lightly, “This medicine has few side effects, so if the pain is unbearable, you can take a tablet or two to ease the pain.”
She looked at me, pursed her lips, her eyes fell on the courtyard and spoke, “With that heavy nasal voice, don’t come here to infect me if you have a cold.”
I couldn’t help but laugh, people were so twisted, how could they say something that sounded so unpleasant when it was clearly a concern.
It was just that.
She was, after all, a proud and reserved young lady.
After half a lifetime without children, she probably wanted to spend her old age on her own.
“Yes, I’ll take some medicine when I get back.” It was normal to catch a cold in winter.
She got up, went into the house and came out with a bag of Banlangen in her hand, her voice cold and hard, “Take it back and drink it, once in the morning and once in the evening, you’ll be fine in two days, it’s not bitter.”
I nodded and took it, smiling lightly, “Thank you, Auntie.”
She gave an encore and didn’t say anything more.
There was no more snow in the capital, the sun was out, most of the snow had melted, and with the sun shining high above, it wasn’t that cold.
Moreover, Fu Qingyin had built a fire in the courtyard, so it was somewhat warm.
At noon, she looked at me, “Do you want to stay for lunch? It’s been snowing for a few days and we only have some dry food at home, nothing else.”
I nodded, “All right!”
One’s life can be delicate or rough, and although it’s dry food, it’s actually a high level of interest.
There was a fire burning in the courtyard, so she took some potatoes and sweet potatoes for me to peel, then sliced meat and washed some small vegetables.
Instead, we grilled a barbecue in the courtyard. I originally thought it would be too silent for two people to eat a barbecue.
But she brought wine from the wine cellar and it was something else to eat.
There are some people who get along best in silence. Fu Qingyin and I don’t have much to talk about, but there are some things we don’t need to say, we just need to understand.
These days, I have not eaten properly for some days, today I ate sporadically, my stomach is a bit uncomfortable.
When Fu Shen Yan came, the fire had been replaced with charcoal, and when he saw the tableware in the courtyard, his handsome brow was tinged with a smile as he pulled me along and said, “Do you like it?”
I smiled lightly, I didn’t like it, I was just in a good mood, so I couldn’t help but crave it.
“You want to try it?” When I said it was good, it was my taste sensation, not his.
He smiled, took the half-eaten jacket potato in my hand and chewed it in his mouth, his eyebrows raised, not mincing words, “Good work!”
I smiled, “Auntie baked them.”
Fu Qingyin looked at her and said, “Okay, there’s still some left, hurry back after eating, there are so many people and it’s noisy.”
When people reach a certain age, it is always easy to say what is right and wrong.
Fu Shenyin understands, and so do I.
Looking at each other with a smile, Fu Shen Yan brought a chair out from the house and sat beside me, pulling me along and asking about Fu Qing Yin’s recent health.
