A Blessed Daughter

  Chapter 253 A sudden slap in the face

  Although he was already a very popular general in the barracks, he still couldn't hide his childishness in front of Wei Ruo and the others.

  Wei Ruo smiled and said, "Originally, one of the purposes of my visit to you today is to ask you what medicinal materials you still lack. After a while, you can tell me the types of medicinal materials that you use the most, and I will prepare more."

   "Good!" Xu Zhengyong nodded heavily.

Xiumei couldn't help but said: "Miss doesn't care about the medicine money, but she does care about you, so don't get hurt if you can, and don't use medicine if you don't need it. It's best to be like this every time. Come back safely."

Hearing this, Xu Zhengyong first showed a happy smile because he was cared for, and then replied with a serious expression: "Of course I don't want to get hurt, I wish I had more strength to kill a few more Japanese pirates, but on the battlefield A sword has no eyes, sometimes no amount of kung fu can resist it. Just like Master Wei this time..."

  Speaking of Wei Mingting, Xu Zhengyong hurriedly asked Wei Ruo: "Sister Ruoer, how is Lord Wei doing now?"

   "The injury has stabilized, and I woke up yesterday afternoon. Now I just need to take the medicine on time and rest." Wei Ruo replied.

   "That's good!" Xu Zhengyong said happily, and then he thought of something, and asked Wei Ruo nervously, "Sister Ruo'er hasn't been exposed?"

  Xu Zhengyong knew that if Wei Mingting was able to recover from such a serious injury, sister Ruoer probably took action.

  So Xu Zhengyong was worried that Wei Ruo would expose his affairs, not because he was narrow-minded, but because he didn't trust the members of the Wei family except Wei Mingting.

   "Don't worry, the doctor Cheng who treated him this time was my acquaintance when I was preventing the epidemic. He helped me cover the whole process, and no one noticed anything abnormal."

   "That's good. I'm relieved that you're fine!" Xu Zhengyong breathed a sigh of relief.

   Then she said to Wei Ruo: "Sister Ruo'er, will you stay for dinner today? My mother has preserved plum vegetables and said she will make you pork with dried plum vegetables. She won't let me touch it if I want to eat it."

   "I'm hungry for what you said." Wei Ruo laughed.

"There are also pickled vegetables and bamboo shoots. The heavy snow last year destroyed a lot of bamboos, but the bamboo shoots that grew in the surviving bamboo forest are very thick and tender. When my father went to the winery yesterday, he passed by and bought a lot of them. , paired with my mother's big-headed pickles, it's a must!" Xu Zhengyong continued to say vividly.

  Wei Ruo smiled: "Then I must try it, I haven't eaten these two dishes for a long time."

The Wei family is from the north, and their eating habits are a little different from those of the southerners. Although they have been in the south for a long time and have begun to accept the southern diet, people in the house still don’t like pickled vegetables and dried vegetables. I'm used to it, so I can't do it on weekdays.

  Wei Ruo hadn't had this bite for a long time.

  Hearing that the nanny's face was full of smiles, she put on her apron and walked into the kitchen, calling Xu Zhengyong for help as she walked: "Xiaoyong, bring some firewood to the kitchen! I'll cook."

"Okay!" Xu Zhengyong smiled, and then secretly said to Wei Ruo, "My mother hasn't cooked for you for a long time, and I have been thinking about it for a long time, and I am always worried that you are not used to eating in other places. Bet she'll cook a big table."

   "I know." Wei Ruo doesn't know how the nanny loves him, but it's a pity that she doesn't have much chance to stay by the nanny's side now.

  Nurse has been busy in the kitchen for a long time, setting up a large table with sixteen dishes.

  Xu Zhengyong smiled and said to Wei Ruo: "Sister Ruo'er, do you know? In the past few days since I've been back, there are only 16 dishes in total. I think I picked them up, and you are the one who was born by mother!"

  As soon as Xu Zhengyong finished speaking, Mama Xu shuddered on the head.

   "Eat well, talk less!"

  Xu Zhengyong took the opportunity to act coquettishly with Wei Ruo: "Sister Ruoer, how pitiful do you think I am?"

   "Well, poor, let Xiumei rub it for you." Wei Ruo said.

   "Okay, okay, Meimei, rub it for me."

  As soon as Xu Zhengyong finished speaking, Xiumei showed her fist:

   "Okay, I see that your whole body is not strong, let me help you relax!"

   "Ahem... Meimei, the fist is not suitable, right? Although I didn't suffer any serious injuries on the battlefield, I have been fighting for half a month, and my body is still a little weak..." Xu Zhengyong quickly changed his words.

   "I see that your body is very good, especially that mouth! You can't stop talking, don't mention how energetic you are!" Xiumei gave Xu Zhengyong a white look.

  Xu Zhengyong continued to laugh back at Xiumei.

  Because there is no rule in Xu's family not to talk when eating or sleeping, Xu Zhengyong and Xiumei would squabble from time to time between meals, which made the meal extraordinarily lively.

  Wei Ruo's mood was also extraordinarily relaxed amidst the laughter, and the fatigue of the past few days also dissipated a lot.

  ###

  Wei Ruo stayed in Sibaozhai until he finished his dinner, and now it was dark, Xu Zhengyong reluctantly sent Wei Ruo and Xiumei to the carriage.

  Amidst his nagging orders, Wei Ruo and Xiumei left Sibaozhai.

  As soon as he returned to Xiaowei's Mansion, he met Wei Yichen head-on.

   When Wei Mingting was seriously injured a few days ago, Yun did not send anyone to notify him, because even if he came back, it would be of no use and would affect his studies.

   It seems that after Wei Mingting recovered from his injury yesterday afternoon, the Yun family sent someone to report to Anzhou College.

   "Brother." Wei Ruo said hello and was about to go inside.

  Wei Yichen walked up to her quickly and blocked Wei Ruo's way.

  Wei Ruo raised his head and looked at Wei Yichen with some doubts. He had a serious expression, his mountain-like eyebrows were fixed, and there was blame in his serious eyes.

  Wei Ruo was about to ask what was going on, when Wei Yichen suddenly raised his hand and slapped the defenseless Wei Ruo on the face.

"Snapped-"

   Wei Yichen's slap was so sudden that Xiumei couldn't react.

"I always talk to you about how you go out to play and how you don't obey the rules. I think it doesn't matter. I can't ask you according to the norms of ordinary women, but this time you have really gone too far! "

"Father is dying. As a daughter, you don't care about him at all. When Wanwan was waiting by the bed, you only thought about how to run out. If you want to go out, why has the mansion stopped you now? You have to go out at this time ?"

  Wei Yichen looked at Wei Ruo sadly, his eyes were red and his lips were tightly pressed.

  Wei Ruo stretched out his hand, touched his left cheek which was so painful from the beating, and then chuckled lightly.

   "Who told you that I didn't take care of my father? Who told you that I didn't serve my father?"

   Wei Ruo raised his face, looked directly at Wei Yichen and asked Wei Yichen back, with a weird smile on his face that Wei Yichen had never expected.
