Chapter 367 Is She Your Sister-in-law?
There were three plates and five dishes on the table, without even a bit of meat. It was not just ordinary, it was even a bit too simple.
Yu Tingfeng paused. It wasn’t that he couldn’t eat all this, but he was thinking, it shouldn’t be this bad!
"This... I'm sorry for being rude today. We all need to lose weight, so..." Chonglou felt a little sorry.
"Lose weight?" The three people from the Yu family repeated at the same time.
not understand.
"It's not enough for them to lose weight, but they also want me to lose weight too. They say that if I eat meat, they'll think, 'I can't eat it after this. Look at me, don't I look pale?'"
Yuan Zhenkuan slapped his face at the three people, looking bitter and resentful.
The three still didn't understand.
"This is called health, do you understand? A balanced nutrition ratio will make the body healthier. Eating more vegetables is good for you, and it's good to supplement with high protein." Feng Aoqing rolled her eyes at Yuan Zhenkuan.
"Come on, sister, show me your high protein." Yuan Zhenkuan made a gesture of invitation.
Feng Aoqing brought out a fixed amount of high-protein food for each person from the kitchen: a small piece of chicken breast, a small piece of beef, and a boiled egg.
The three of them were confused again.
"What is this?"
"General, chicken breast, this part." Yuan Zhenkuan helped explain.
"Is this beef...meat?"
The beef was dark and you couldn't tell what kind it was. It didn't look good.
"right."
"I recognize this, an egg, um, quite..."
"Health." Yuan Zhenkuan hurriedly said for him.
Everyone sat down to eat. I don’t know what happened to others, but Yu Tingfeng felt like he was eating alone and didn’t dare to say anything.
Yu Yichen didn't understand the point of losing weight, but he always ate little, so this kind of meal was to his liking.
Yu Mingchang has a strong taste, and these things are like chewing wax, but he mainly wants companionship. Being able to eat at the same table with Siyan and seeing that she is well again makes him happier than eating anything else.
After the meal, Chonglou asked someone to bring tea over.
Only Yu Yichen was still sober and reminded Yu Tingfeng of the purpose of this trip. He also took out the letter and gave it to Yu Tingfeng.
Yu Tingfeng was about to speak when he saw Feng Aoqing stand up and he took a few steps forward.
"Where to?" he asked.
"Take a hundred steps after dinner."
"Let's go together."
Feng Aoqing looked at him seriously.
"how?"
"It's dark now." Feng Aoqing reminded. She was not afraid, but this era was not so open-minded.
"Are you afraid of the dark? Or are you afraid of me? Or are you afraid of what people say? When did you become so well-mannered?"
Feng Aoqing smiled.
She did not object anymore and stepped over the threshold first, leaving the Ghost Fan Tower as usual.
Normally, she would walk along the main road to the town gate and then return.
Yu Tingfeng walked slowly beside her.
"I understand you feel frustrated, but I..." Feng Aoqing still wanted to refuse.
"Not really. My life hasn't been smooth sailing. You probably can't even imagine the most difficult times I've faced. So, being rejected by a woman is nothing. It's impossible for me to be liked by everyone!" Yu Tingfeng answered calmly.
"You look so old-fashioned. If I didn't look at your face, I would have thought you were in your seventies or eighties."
"I didn't know your identity before. Now that I know your identity, I understand your situation and your feelings. Don't worry, just treat me as an ordinary friend from now on." Yu Tingfeng said sincerely.
"So you're here to see ordinary friends?" Feng Aoqing breathed a sigh of relief. She was willing to be friends with them. The three of them were honest and upright, and worthy of associating with.
"No, since I came to you, I must have something to ask for."
"Tell me about it."
"First, my sister-in-law has been ill for a long time, and I want to ask if you have any way to treat her. Second, I want to ask you for advice on road construction. Not just three simple sentences, but detailed methods."
Feng Aoqing looked at him sideways: "I can understand and explain my sister-in-law's illness, but road construction... your Leng Yanjun has a wide range of responsibilities!"
"Well...it's my duty to share the emperor's worries."
"That's true." Feng Aoqing nodded.
If he was not a person devoted to Emperor Yuanwu, how could he be trusted to hand over the Lengyan Army to him? I believe that several generals of the Lengyan Army are the same as him.
"Is there a reward for doing a good job? Some gold, a beautiful woman, or something like that."
"Tsk." Yu Tingfeng's teeth began to hurt.
"Come closer, don't walk against other people's flower beds." Just to tease him, Feng Aoqing smiled and waved at him.
"oh."
Yu Tingfeng was originally holding a robe and standing one step away from her, with the hem of his clothes sometimes touching the flower beds outside some residents' houses.
Hearing Feng Aoqing's reminder, he shuddered, fearing that he had been tricked again, so he leaned towards Feng Aoqing and began to talk about his sister-in-law's illness.
"No? Are you sure it's your sister-in-law?" Feng Aoqing felt something was wrong as she listened, and snatched the letter to read it.
But what was written on the letter was exactly as he said.
"It's my sister-in-law." Yu Tingfeng hasn't reacted yet.
"Your sister-in-law must be several generations older than you!"
Yu Tingfeng just remembered this and hurriedly explained: "Sister-in-law, I'm sixty-three this year."
Feng Aoqing couldn't help but laugh. He had felt something was wrong the moment he heard the symptoms. This was clearly a chronic illness for the elderly! How could it be his sister-in-law? No matter how old his sister-in-law was, she was probably only thirty years old at most!
"You scared me, I thought! Also, your sister-in-law, she is trying to trick you into going home!" Feng Aoqing pointed at the letter again.
There happened to be a house with brighter lights, so Feng Aoqing stopped, and Yu Tingfeng also stopped, feeling a little panicked.
In the light, Feng Aoqing held the letter in front of him: "Look, these few parts really reflect her physical problems, and these few parts are just nonsense."
"I was really panicked when I saw this. Are these real illnesses curable? The imperial physician said there's no way."
"So she was exaggerating. The imperial physician had a way to treat these old people's illnesses. She should have told her that there was no cure and that she could only take long-term medication to keep them healthy. Your sister-in-law, because she wanted you to go back, said there was no cure."
"So that's how it is." Yu Tingfeng was indeed relieved.
"You can either go back or write a reply to let her relax and remember to take medicine on time and eat every day. Walk around like we do, and she will definitely feel more relaxed and comfortable." Feng Aoqing gave the solution.
"Is it that simple?"
"Yes! Judging from her symptoms and your status, I think she is either rich or noble. She probably eats too well and doesn't move enough."
"I understand. I'll write the letter in a moment."
There was a gentle summer night breeze and the chirping of insects, and both of them felt very comfortable.
"After dinner tomorrow, bring some food to catch cicada monkeys." Feng Aoqing listened to the noisy trees, looked up and murmured.
"What is it?" Yu Tingfeng didn't hear clearly. He had never seen such a thing before. He only heard the word "monkey" and thought it was a monkey.
"Food."
"Can it be eaten? It's okay to catch it for fun. Call them together tomorrow. We are always better in martial arts. How can you catch it? It ran away before the poison was even released." Yu Tingfeng thought about it and decided that he had to do this.
"Okay." Feng Aoqing agreed.
The two of them were almost at the entrance of the town when they turned back.
"How about it, aunt, do we look like an old couple?" Yuan Zhenkuan bumped into Chonglou, who was standing at the gate of the yard with an aunt's smile on her face.
"Don't be too similar, it would be great if it could be accomplished."
"I'm afraid it's not that easy." Yuan Zhenkuan shook his head.
He reached out to grab the black melon seeds in Chonglou's hand, but as soon as he grabbed them, he felt something was wrong and his hair stood on end.
