Chapter 5: Life has to cook for yourself
When Chen Rong was lying on the bed reading a book, he heard the sound of the piano from the yard next door, huddled in the quilt and fell asleep, very peaceful.
In the early morning, the next person brought breakfast, she was still thinking about other things, "Have the Lin family been here?"
Liuxiang shook her head: "No."
"Ms. Xu has contracted a cold. The doctor came to see her this morning. She drank the medicine and fell asleep, and the food she gave didn't move." Liu Xiang replied.
Chen Rong's food was a little tasteless. It seems that Xu Yiru's soaking in water is really serious this time. After all, the cold is not easy to treat in this era...
"System, system, what's the use of you saying I want you?" She muttered in a low voice, full of slots. Although she doesn't depend on the system, it's too useless.
The system suddenly came to life: "The system will issue corresponding points according to the completion of the user's task, and the points can be exchanged for things. As the user upgrades, the system will unlock more functions."
Chen Rong was stunned for a while, her eyes lit up: "How many points do I have now? I want to change some cold medicine, is that okay?"
The system explained: "You can check it yourself through consciousness."
Chen Rong muttered to himself for a while before remembering the existence of the fragrance, and waved his hand: "I don't need to serve for the time being, you go down first."
"Yes." Liu Xiang sighed, her own lady was so worried about Miss Xu, this quirky appearance was distressing.
Chen Rong had 5,000 original points, and only 100 points were needed to exchange medicines. Chen Rong quickly exchanged a box of granules, thinking that it would not be good to give it directly to Xu Yiru, so she took a bag and went to the kitchen , it will not be noticed in the porridge.
Xu Yi had a fever at this time, but her body was very cold, she huddled in the quilt and coughed, her face was pale, and she could not sleep well even with nightmares.
"Knock Knock Knock"
Xu Yiru opened her eyes, sat up with difficulty, lowered her head and coughed in a weak voice, "Arong, go back first, don't let me get sick."
She turned her head and smiled softly at Chen Rong: "Wait for me to see you later, okay?"
Chen Rong looked at her and felt distressed for a while. She walked to her bed with porridge and sat down, "I'm in very good health, so don't worry. This is the porridge I made for you by myself. Hurry up and drink it!" She paused, her face a little tangled, "Although this... it doesn't look very good, but your illness will soon be cured after drinking it."
However, Xu Yiru's focus was in another place. She stared at the porridge in Chen Rong's hand, "You said you cooked it?"
"Yeah." Chen Rong picked up the spoon and stirred the porridge, then blew: "Come on, you can taste it, the taste is okay."
Xu Yiru had no appetite at first, but when Chen Rong patiently fed the porridge, he drank a bowl of porridge with a strange taste, purely because it was cooked by Chen Rong himself, no matter how it tasted, in She has the best in her heart.
Chen Rong put down the empty bowl, wiped Xu Yiru's mouth with a handkerchief, looked at her pursing her lips, a little itchy, and quickly looked away embarrassedly, "Then you have a good rest, I'll go first busy."
Xu Yi subconsciously grabbed Chen Rong's warm hand, her nose was sore, and he said, "Can you stay with me again? I... I've had nightmares, dreaming of my parents..."
Chen Rong met her charming eyes, she couldn't bear it, and nodded: "Okay, then I'll go get the ledger, I'll accompany you today." He added, "You I'm here when I'm asleep."
"En." Xu Yiru finally smiled, watching Chen Rong go out, and sighed on the bed, "I'm sorry..."
She covered her heart, obviously she shouldn't be too greedy, but she longed to be closer.
When Chen Rong came back, he folded a few red plums and put them in the white porcelain vase under the window. He smiled and said to Xu Yiru casually, "Wait for you. After that, you can go out for a walk, the maid in my yard has built a snowman, which is very cute."
"En." Xu Yiru turned her head to look at her smiling face, and laughed along with her, as if there were spring water that had melted in her eyes.
Liuxiang came in hastily, "Miss, the Lin family is here."
Chen Rong fiddled with the flower branch, "Who's here?"
Liuxiang knew that Chen Rong was a one-of-a-kind character, and hesitated for a while, "It's the housekeeper of Lin's house, who brought some gifts and supplements, so that Miss Xu can take care of her body."
"It's ridiculous." Chen Rong sneered, the Chen family naturally did not lack this supplement, "Reject it, and tell Xiao Liuzi that what I ordered can be done."
In the evening, Chen Rong and Chen Youwu and their father and daughter were chatting by candles in the study. She didn't come out until midnight. She was standing under the eaves and watching the hanging lanterns reflecting a warm light and the snow falling again. , fell like a feather from the white sky.
"Miss Xu, do you really want to be serious to the Lin family?" Liu Xiang held a cloak and draped it over Chen Rong.
"You may think I'm making a big deal out of it?" Chen Rong closed his cloak, his body warmed a little, and looked up a little blankly: "Actually, put yourself in the shoes and think about it, if I was almost It is absolutely impossible to kill and forgive me lightly..."
She probably understood why Zhang Shaochu became cruel for a Ying Yangxue, probably to protect his shortcomings?
"Xu Yiru is very different to me." Chen Rong said something to Liuxiang inexplicably, and then sighed quite deeply: "Forget it, say what you don't understand. ."
Vulgarly speaking, it is the responsibility.
"Slave...I really don't understand." Liuxiang nodded with a wry smile.
Chen Rong suddenly looked at Liuxiang seriously, "Do you know how to make lotus seeds and red dates?"
Liuxiang was stunned for a moment: "Well?"
Fuyang City had the biggest snowfall that night, and the whole city was covered with snow. This kind of cold weather would not have many people going out, but The Lin family came to the door aggressively.
The eldest Miss Lin Yuee almost killed her sister overnight, and many people said that they had witnessed it with their own eyes. Moreover, ordinary people in the market knew the secrets of the back houses of the wealthy families. Interested, Chen Rong fanned a little fire, and it burned the eyebrows of the Lin family.
Lin Yue'e soon got married, and such a thing made those noble families who were interested in getting married rested.
"Miss, see you?" Liuxiang asked tentatively while researching ink: "They are at the door now, and they want you to give me an explanation."
Is our Chen family a soft persimmon? Notify the government and say that someone is making trouble, let them handle it well..."
"The servant understands, let's do it now."
There is a god-like existence, but now this god-man has put down the shelf, squatting by the stove and making soup seriously.
The style is slightly subtle…
Xu Yiru didn't expect Chen Rong to cook again in person, and when she heard the servant's words, she was a little moved. When Chen Rong came, he had already dressed and got out of bed. Although his face was not very good, his spirit was much better.
"Rong."
Chen Rong was holding a small bowl, frowning with a bitter expression, "I always feel that the fragrance is trapping me, the color of this soup seems to be opaque, am I doing something wrong?"
"You've done a good job." Xu Yiru quickly comforted her, her heart was filled with warmth, she pursed her lips and smiled: "You sit down."
Chen Zongzong sat down and looked at her blankly: "What's wrong?"
Chen Rong looked at the earrings dangling in front of her and the blue silk falling on the back of her hand, feeling itchy in her heart, she couldn't help rolling up a strand of it and wrapping it around her fingers, "You have Light scent, nice smell."
"Really?" Xu Yiru got up, and her hair naturally slipped away from Chen Rong's fingertips, "I didn't notice it myself."
Chen Rong was inexplicably embarrassed, and changed the subject: "You can drink the soup while it's hot, tonight I'll have someone make ginseng soup to nourish your body. Take it slow, and your physique will get better. ."
Xu Yiru nodded and sat down beside Chen Rong, holding a porcelain white spoon in her soft white hand, lowered her head and drank the soup obediently, but her attention was on Chen Rong, even the soup The taste didn't taste much.
"Listen, my uncle's family came to make trouble this morning?" She mentioned casually.
"Ah... this, just leave it alone. They are sorry for you and should be punished. Besides, this matter is managed by the government, so we civilians should not interfere." The long hair that fell on her cheeks was pulled behind her ears.
Xu Yiru's body froze slightly, and then relaxed, but her cheeks were covered with a layer of pale pink, and she took a sip of soup to cover her gaffe. Strangely, her heartbeat became chaotic.
"How does it taste?" Chen Rong suddenly came over and asked expectantly, her eyes very clear.
At this moment, the servant knocked on the door and came in and announced, "Miss, Young Master Zhang is here to find you."
"Zhang Shaochu?"
Xu Yiru heard the name, a strange look flashed in her eyes, and she frowned slightly.
