"You still want this medicine to be delicious, so what are you thinking about? Since you don't want to drink the medicine, let someone make you a bowl of brown sugar and ginger tea. You can drink it and you will feel better."
Su Luo still refused: "Spicy."
The brewed ginger tea does have a spicy taste and the taste is not good, but it is much better than the dark concoction. The concoction made from traditional Chinese medicine is almost difficult to swallow.
Since Su Luo is suffering from a cold, she can drink some brown sugar ginger tea to ward off the cold.
"It tastes better than medicine anyway. You can choose one."
Su Luo poked her sleeve and was a little silent.
Su Wan smiled when she saw this and asked her: "What? Don't you want to feel better? I will stay in the Imperial City for a few days and then go back. Since you are sick, you can't go out. I can only take Shuang'er to go out to play." .”
Su Luo was stunned for a moment, then almost jumped up: "No, no, no, Sixth Sister, you can't just take her without me! I'm going too, I'm going too!"
Of course, Yue Shuang is her sister's cousin, so she doesn't monopolize her sister, but she won't be happy if her sister only takes Yue Shuang out to play without her.
Who is not my sister’s sister anymore?
"Then why don't you drink ginger tea?"
Su Luo rolled her eyes and struggled for a while: "Which medicine or ginger tea will make you better faster?"
"Of course I drank medicine. Ginger tea can drive away the cold. Drinking medicine is the right medicine."
Su Luo thought for a moment and bit her lip: "Then I'd better take medicine."
Although he was still reluctant, he was finally willing to drink the medicine. Su Wan nodded and told the maid beside him: "Go and heat up your master's medicine and bring it to her."
The maid bowed and said yes, then left with the soup. Su Luo stared at the bowl of medicine, as if she could smell the medicine, and wrinkled her nose hard.
She wanted to say that she didn't want to drink, but she also thought that her sixth sister was only here to stay for a few days. If she was too sick to go out, she wouldn't be able to hang out with her sixth sister.
Su Wan asked her: "Do you want to get up or rest?"
"Get up." Su Luo knew that Su Wan would definitely stay to eat when she came here at this time, and she didn't want to eat alone.
"Then get up." Su Wan patted her shoulder and asked her to get up. Su Luo got out of the quilt, put on her embroidered shoes and got out of bed. Someone brought her hot water to wash her hair, and then changed her clothes and combed her hair. .
Su Wan sat on an embroidery stool next to the table, watching Su Luo sitting in front of the dressing table and letting the maid comb her hair. After tying her hair into a bun and choosing a hairpin to wear, the medicinal soup was ready. Served hot.
Su Luo was choosing a bracelet to wear at the moment. She was originally happy, but when she saw that the medicinal soup made her whole body feel bad, the smile on her face suddenly disappeared.
She glanced cautiously towards Su Wan and saw that she was playing with a white round fan embroidered with light pink camellia in her hand. She cautiously called out, "Sixth Sister."
"Huh?" Su Wan glanced at the tray held by the maid. The bowl of medicinal soup was still steaming, "Want to take some medicine?"
Su Luo: "Sixth Sister, can I..."
When Su Luo saw Su Wan looking up at her, she immediately changed her mind: "...Can you let it cool down before drinking?"
Su Wan wanted to laugh in her heart, but it didn't show on her face: "Okay, let's drink it later. When you finish drinking, we will go to Fupingyuan to have dinner together."
Just as Su Luo breathed a sigh of relief, she remembered that she would have to drink this medicine sooner or later, and she suddenly became speechless.
Su Wan was too lazy to coax her anymore, he just drank some medicine, and he had to coax her again and again. Isn't this a habit?
Su Luo chose a bracelet and put it on carefully. She lowered her head and looked at the bowl of medicinal soup. The smell really hit her nose and mouth. She frowned and took a porcelain spoon and swayed it around in the medicine bowl. Not even a sip.
Su Wan calculated that the temperature of the soup was almost the same, and then he looked up at her: "I have been sitting for a while, and I want to go to my father's place, and then to my grandmother's place for dinner. Do you want to drink this medicine or not?"
Su Luo: "...I drink, I drink."
When things got to this point, Su Luo didn't dare to drag it out any longer. She endured the taste and held her breath. Finally, she felt stuffy. After drinking it, she felt sluggish. The maid gave her a small plate of candied dates. , she hurriedly took one and threw it in her mouth, chewing the candied dates while enduring the bitter taste.
The sweet taste filled the mouth, and the bitter taste slowly dissipated.
Su Wan said: "If you don't pay attention to your body on weekdays, you will only realize the pain when you take medicine. In the future, you should pay more attention."
Su Luo nodded, feeling a little regretful in her heart. The weather was now hot and cold. A few nights ago, she was greedy for cold and didn't cover herself with a quilt, so she caught a cold. God knows how much she regrets it now.
"Sixth sister, I won't do it anymore."
Su Wan nodded: "Let's go to father's side."
"Uh-huh."
So the two sisters went to Yuhua Garden together. Su Xun finished dressing up, changed out of his official uniform, and then took his wife and girl to Fuping Courtyard to have dinner with Duke Jinning and his family.
Mrs. Wang also called several people from the main room over. During the meal, Duke Jinning and Mrs. Wang sat on the main seat. Mrs. Wang raised her eyes and looked at her children and grandchildren, her face full of love.
Previously, she really wanted to give Su Jian a two-bedroom concubine.
She had two sons and only two grandsons, which she felt were indeed missing. Now that Su Xian was still young and not ready to get married, she could only focus on Su Jian and planned to put her in her hands after the imperial examination. People sent it over to spread the branches and leaves of the Su family and give birth to more children and grandchildren.
When the house is filled with descendants, she will be able to close her eyes even if she is dead.
But Su Wan's words were indeed touching. Although some of what Su Wan said seemed wrong to her, there was a truth that was true.
No matter how many descendants, direct descendants, and concubines there are, there are also many fights. If there are a few like Su Lin, if they don't like him, he will kill the whole family for his own selfish interests.
In this way, if she wants to have more great-grandchildren, she might as well let her grandson-in-law give birth to two more. By then, if they are born to one mother, there will naturally be less fighting. Moreover, if the brothers work together and use their strength in one place, the family will be able to grow stronger. The better.
After thinking about it, she didn't care. Anyway, she already had Aji now.
Murong Xian didn't know the reason for this. Seeing that Mrs. Wang suddenly seemed to be a lot more friendly, and even advised her to eat more to stay healthy, she felt inexplicably a little fussy in her heart. She winked at Su Wan several times, and Su Wan smiled at her. laugh.
After dinner, Su Luo pulled Su Wan to stay. She heard Su Wan talk about accompanying Yue Shuang at the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion yesterday. She felt unbalanced and wanted her sister to accompany her, otherwise she would not comply.
Su Wan had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree.
Just after nightfall, Li Lin returned to Jingpingyuan in a carriage, and then heard what the gatekeeper said about it.
Li Lin: "..."
It's Yue Shuang again, and Su Luo again. What's going on with these two sisters-in-law? Are they determined to compete with him for his wife?
