Chapter 394: Not Like a Country Girl
Just thinking about these ingredients, Shen Yueyao's eyes sparkled.
She thought Liuzhou was a good place.
The poorer the place, the easier it is to achieve political achievements by developing it.
Shen Yueyao was thinking about spicy crayfish, spicy crab and other things in her mind.
In fact, she still wanted Su Xueyi to be transferred to another place in the future. It would be easier for her to get promoted if she made achievements as an official there.
Being an official in the capital city is subject to many restrictions. One has to accumulate experience in the Hanlin Academy before having the opportunity to enter the cabinet.
But this was just her idea. It was up to Su Xueyi to decide how to arrange his career, and she would listen to him.
Su Xueyi was telling Dong Wenren about what had happened in the Su family over the years.
I briefly talked about what happened after exile and my life in Liuhe Village.
When he learned that Su Xueyi and Shen Yueyao had twin sons, he was shocked, but then he became happy, "Congratulations, cousin."
When Su Xueyi thought of her two sons, a gentle smile appeared on her face.
Come to think of it, I miss my two children a little. I will probably bring them back to the capital after the results are announced.
Dong Wenren was happy for his cousin.
And my cousin is really happy that he married such a good cousin-in-law.
Even the noble ladies in the capital are not as good as my cousin's wife. She is not only a kind person but also knows medicine.
Su Xueyi also felt a little sad in his heart. It was because of Yao Niang that he had everything he had now.
Naturally, he also thought Yao Niang was the best.
When Su Xueyi asked about Dong Wenren, he still remembered hearing his aunt and uncle talk about it when he was young, saying that Dong Wenren was engaged.
Dong Wenren revealed a bitter expression when he spoke of this. "My grandfather had arranged for her to be his good friend's granddaughter. But after my parents were excommunicated from the clan, they quickly sent someone to cancel the engagement. The girl is my age, and I heard she got married two years ago and has children. She's from a well-matched family in the area."
Dong Wenren did feel bad at first, but now he feels a lot calmer.
I just feel that most people in the world flatter the powerful and look down on the weak, so there is no need to feel unfair.
He just wanted to study hard so that he could stand out and achieve success.
He wanted his parents to live a good life and didn't want his father to be discriminated against by his clan members anymore.
Although Dad never said it, he knew that being expelled from the clan was a huge blow to Dad, so much so that Dad was sometimes depressed, and Mom felt even more guilty.
Mother thinks it is because of her father that this happens.
Sometimes mothers feel guilty and are more likely to get sick.
It was after Dong Wenren passed the imperial examinations and became a scholar that his parents smiled more, as if they saw hope in him.
So Dong Wenren worked harder and harder in his studies.
Shen Yueyao comforted Dong Wenren, saying, "My cousin is a handsome man, and he has already achieved the title of Juren before he even reached the age of twenty. If you tell others about it, it will shock everyone."
"If my cousin passes the imperial examination again, he will be even more popular."
Dong Wenren shook his head and said, "Compared to my cousin, I am still far behind, and my knowledge still has a lot to learn."
When Dong Wenren was young, he often heard his grandfather say that there are always people better than you and that they must be humble and not complacent when studying.
Shen Yueyao smiled and said, "I think it's good to compare yourself with others in your studies. It's very happy to make a little progress every day."
Dong Wenren was stunned.
I just feel that my cousin's wife's words are really healing, and they make him feel like he has suddenly seen something.
Yes, as long as I can make progress every day.
He didn't expect that his cousin's wife could say such words.
He felt that his cousin's wife didn't look like a country girl at all.
Better than the daughters of wealthy families who were carefully brought up.
Dong Wenren bowed and said, "Thank you, cousin."
Su Xueyi smiled and said, "There's no need to be so formal in front of your family."
Su Xueyi chatted with Dong Wenren for a while, and when she heard his stomach rumbling, she asked, "Didn't you have breakfast?"
Dong Wenren's face turned red, and he felt a little embarrassed.
During this period, in order to save food, they only ate two meals a day, so naturally they were not full.
Looking at Dong Wenren's expression, they realized that Dong Wenren probably hadn't eaten breakfast.
His classmates probably didn't eat it either.
Dong Wenren and Kang Haozhi took care of Brother Feng last night. They took turns taking care of him and resting, and they didn't eat anything.
Shen Yueyao said: "Where is the kitchen? I'll go make some food."
Dong Wenren quickly waved his hand and said, "This... no need, cousin, I'm fine. How can I trouble you?"
Dong Wenren felt embarrassed to trouble his cousin and his wife again.
Shen Yueyao said: "It's okay, I cook quickly."
Shen Yueyao planned to make a few bowls of instant noodles for them to eat first to fill their stomachs so that they could have a proper meal at noon.
Although it is already mid-morning, if you are hungry, you will not only lack energy but also feel dizzy easily.
Su Xueyi knew that there was food in Shen Yueyao's space, so there was nothing to worry about.
Su Xueyi said, "Cousin, if you treat us as family, you don't have to be so polite to us. Brothers are supposed to help each other."
"If you were me, you would naturally want to do your best to help me, right?"
After hearing these words, Dong Wenren was speechless and felt only moved and ashamed.
He explained where the kitchen was.
Shen Yueyao went to the kitchen.
To boil water quickly, she also added spiritual spring water to the hot water.
Then soak the instant noodles in hot water.
This is the instant noodles she made after coming to Beijing.
After Shen Yueyao made three bowls of instant noodles, Dong Wenren could smell the rich fragrance in the room.
Even Kang Haozhi, who was taking care of Feng Xiu'an, felt even hungrier and his mouth was watering.
He thought that maybe the people next door were cooking something delicious.
So tempting.
Even Feng Xiu'an, who was originally dozing off, was awakened by the smell.
Seeing Feng Xiu'an wake up, Kang Haozhi said excitedly: "Brother Feng, you're awake, how do you feel?"
Feng Xiu'an woke up once last night and learned from his two brothers that he was rescued and a miracle doctor girl treated him, bandaged him, and prescribed medicine for him.
He did feel better when he woke up.
He was grateful.
Looking at his two brothers who were wholeheartedly taking care of him, he was deeply moved.
He will never forget such a kindness.
If it weren't for the help of his two brothers, he wouldn't know what would happen to him now.
He was a student from a poor family and could not be compared with his two brothers.
But he always remembered this favor in his heart and wanted to report it.
"I feel much better and have more strength."
Kang Haozhi said with emotion: "That benefactor girl is really a miracle doctor. She gave you medicine in the middle of the night and you got much better."
"We were worried you might have a fever all night, but you didn't."
Looking at the tired look between Kang Haozhi's eyebrows, Feng Xiu'an knew that his two brothers had been taking care of him without any rest last night.
"Brother Kang, I'm fine now. Go and have a rest."
Kang Haozhi was a little worried, but Feng Xiu'an felt that everything was fine.
He has enough strength to walk around.
Kang Haozhi said, "That's fine. I went to see my benefactor. She came this morning and Brother Dong was entertaining her."
Feng Xiu'an wanted to pay a visit, at least to express his gratitude.
Of course, he also knew that if Brother Dong had not used the book left at home, he might not have been able to invite the miracle doctor to diagnose and prescribe medicine for him.
Just then, Dong Wenren came in with two large bowls of instant noodles on a tray.
