Chapter 52 The Girl Got It (Three Updates)
If the lightly-flavored grilled fish was because she had just eaten the strong-flavored grilled lamb and it took a while for the taste to come back to her mouth, then the salt on the eggplant was so much that it was definitely extremely salty.
There was absolutely no way He Yanxiu hadn't noticed.
But he didn’t say…
She was just a concubine, and to He Yanxiu she was just a lowly maid. Logically speaking, there was no need to give her too much face, let alone take her feelings into consideration.
If He Yanxiu didn't say how much salt there was, I think there could be only one reason.
He Yanxiu had some problems with his sense of taste and couldn't taste the saltiness of anything.
But I don’t know whether this loss of taste is congenital or caused by an accident.
I heard Xing'an mention it before, that the Second Master used to be very picky about food. He didn't like spicy food or sweet food. Whenever any delicious food came to the Second Master, they would always find some faults. Everyone had long been accustomed to it, so they were very serious about the Second Master's diet and did not dare to neglect him in the slightest.
Maybe it was caused by something that happened later in life? I don’t know what kind of accident it was, and whether it is possible to cure it…
Su Yujin lowered her head in thought. He Yanxiu drank a mouthful of the fish and mutton soup in the bowl. "What are you thinking about?"
"No, nothing."
Su Yujin suppressed the question "Is the Second Master ill?" and changed the subject with a smile, "I'm wondering what the Second Master wants to eat for dinner so that I can prepare it in advance."
"All right."
He Yanxiu put down his chopsticks.
Due to the bumpy ride and the fact that he had caught a cold, he had a poor appetite.
Now that I’m full, I have no appetite for other food.
"Then I'll take care of the preparations." Seeing that He Yanxiu had almost finished eating, Su Yujin ordered Ai Cao and Liu Mama to clean up the charcoal stove and the grill tray, as well as the remaining items on the table. She also brought water for He Yanxiu to rinse his mouth and made some Pu'er tea for him to drink.
He Yanxiu finished his tea and yawned.
Seeing that he looked tired, Su Yujin said, "Second Master, you must be tired from driving all the way. Why don't you take a nap?"
"Okay."
He Yanxiu had been busy over the past few days and was not feeling well. He was indeed feeling sleepy, so he went into the inner room of the house.
Su Yujin bit her lips again and again, especially when she looked at He Yanxiu's cuffs, her thoughts became more and more restless.
I really want to take Master Er's pulse, first to see if he has a cold, and second to check his sense of taste.
And once this idea came into my mind, it was like a grass sprout growing in the cracks of a stone. When it encountered a little sunlight, it began to grow wildly and I couldn't stop it.
The patient is right in front of me, but I can't see him. It's so uncomfortable! Su Yujin scratched his head and felt uncomfortable all over.
After thinking about it again and again, she stammered for a long while, "Second Master, shall I wait for you to rest?"
When the time comes, after I put him down, maybe it would become natural for me to "accidentally" touch his wrist or something, and I could also give him a brief medical examination.
When Ai Cao and Mother Liu heard Su Yujin's words, they paused and their eyes lit up.
My own girl finally got it and knew how to coax the Second Master!
He Yanxiu also paused his movements, his expression froze for a moment, and then he returned to normal after a moment. He hurriedly said, "No need, let Xing'an serve."
"Hmm... As I was talking, I suddenly started thinking about drinking quail soup. Go pick some ingredients and make some soup tonight."
Su Yujin, "..."
Well, no chance.
"Yes, Second Master." Su Yujin had to give up the idea of going to see the patient, responded, and asked Ai Cao and Mother Liu to inquire about buying quails.
Xing'an went into the house and helped He Yanxiu lie down for his afternoon nap.
Muttering to myself.
The last time the Second Master came, he behaved a little abnormally, and Miss Su was already acting a little strange.
Now Miss Su looks a bit like a concubine and knows how to curry favor with her master. She seems much more normal. But the Second Master actually refuses her entry, which is really strange.
However, although he was confused, as a servant he did not tell his master about his reasons. Xing'an just suppressed all his thoughts and only came out and waited in the hall when he saw that the Second Master was sleeping soundly.
The snow at this time was falling lightly. Although the snowflakes were not dense, they were like goose feathers.
Ai Cao and Mother Liu accompanied Su Yujin to buy quails. They each held an oil-paper umbrella to shield Su Yujin from the snow.
Su Yujin was worried about the patient He Yanxiu, so she didn't say a word along the way and only let Ai Cao and Mother Liu choose the necessary things.
Seeing their daughter like this, Ai Cao and Mother Liu looked at each other and sighed silently in their hearts.
The girl finally took the initiative, but the second master declined and didn't appreciate it. The girl must have felt very upset.
Speaking of which, this second master is also very strange. He has taken a fancy to the girl and bought her back from that kind of place with a lot of money, but he doesn't let the girl serve him closely. I don't know what he wants to do...
It's really hard for the girl.
Ai Cao and Mother Liu knew that Su Yujin was unhappy, so they didn't dare to disturb her along the way. After buying the things, they followed Su Yujin back.
After arriving at the yard, Ai Cao and Mother Liu began to prepare various ingredients and prepare to make soup.
Su Yujin had gone out for a walk and now felt a little cold, so she went into the house to drink a cup of hot tea and hugged the hand stove to keep warm. She saw Xing'an waiting beside her and heard no sound from inside, and her thoughts suddenly moved again.
Su Yujin quietly opened the door to the inner room, tiptoed in, and closed the door gently.
Xing'an, "..."
To stop or not to stop, that seems to be the question.
However, before the Second Master fell asleep, he did not say that Miss Su was not allowed to disturb him.
Xing'an turned his face away.
He saw nothing! Su Yujin walked to the bedside.
He Yanxiu's eyes were closed at this time, his breathing was even, he seemed to be fast asleep, and his arms were hanging outside the quilt.
Good opportunity! Su Yujin first waved her hand in front of He Yanxiu, and seeing that he did not react, she squatted beside the bed and placed her fingers on He Yanxiu's wrist.
Hold your breath and feel He Yanxiu's pulse beating at this moment.
The cold is not a big deal, it's just caused by fatigue and cold weather. Even if you don't take medicine, eat some warm and cold-repelling food, drink more ginger tea and hot soup, and you will be fine in two or three days.
It's a matter of taste...
Su Yujin frowned slightly, and her expression gradually became serious.
"Do you know medicine?"
He Yanxiu's voice sounded faintly in my ears.
This sudden question frightened Su Yujin so much that she sat down on the ground.
And because he subconsciously reached out to grab things around him when he fell, he grabbed the quilt covering He Yanxiu.
The quilt slipped off He Yanxiu's body and most of it was dragged to the ground by Su Yujin.
Only He Yanxiu, who was only wearing his middle shirt, was left half-sitting on the bed, and Su Yujin's hand, which had not yet had time to grab it, was frozen in mid-air.
Su Yujin, "..."
He Yanxiu, "..."
