"Why don't you leave, Miss Huan? What are you doing blocking the way here?" Doctor He's voice came from behind.
Xue Huan suddenly came to her senses and quickly moved aside to let Doctor He in.
Seeing an outsider coming, Pei Ji immediately let go of the butterfly, put one hand behind his back, glanced over indifferently, and the dignified and noble aura of a prince instantly returned to him.
It's true that he looked very deceptive and charming. If Xue Huan didn't know the truth, she would have really fallen for him. Unfortunately, he only had the IQ of a four-year-old child. When she thought of this, the pink bubble that rose in her heart dissipated.
"Doctor He, please come and take a look at him to see if he has a brain injury." After entering the room, Xue Huan pushed Pei Ji in front of Doctor He.
He Shen felt Pei Ji's pulse, a strange look flashing in his eyes. After retracting his hand, he touched the back of his head and pressed it: "Does it hurt?"
Pei Ji's face twitched and he hissed, "Hmm."
He Shen: "There's a blood clot in his brain that's blocking the flow of his meridians, which is why he's lost his memory. Prepare a quiet room. I'll give him acupuncture to help disperse the blood clot. Send him to me every three days, and I'll give him acupuncture. Once the blood clot in his brain dissipates, his memory may be restored."
Xue Huan: "Maybe?"
"Well, after all, the human brain is too complicated. Even if the blood clots dissipate, his memory won't recover just like that."
Xue Huan brought Doctor He to Xue Yao's room and prepared everything he needed. She gave Pei Ji a reassuring look and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm right outside."
Pei Ji thought to himself, he was not afraid at all.
Xue Huan stood outside for a while, not knowing when the acupuncture would end, and then went to help Xue's mother make flower cakes.
After the acupuncture was over, Pei Ji looked out the door immediately, but did not see Xue Huan, and his emotions immediately became agitated.
Damn it! Liar! I said I'd be watching over him outside, but now I'm nowhere to be found.
At this time, Xue Huan came over with a plate of flower cakes. Seeing He Shen walking out, she handed the flower cakes to him and said, "Doctor He, these are the flower cakes my mother made. They're fresh out of the pan. Please try them."
He Shen: "No hurry, I'll wash my hands before eating."
He carried his medicine box to the sink next to the thatched pavilion in front to wash his hands.
Xue Huan walked into the room carrying the pancakes and saw Pei Ji sitting facing the wall with his back to her. She couldn't help but laugh: "Are you facing the wall?"
Pei Ji: “…”
Seeing that he ignored her, Xue Huan couldn't help but feel strange. She turned to face him, but he turned his body to the other side and refused to look at her.
Are you angry again?
Xue Huan thought for a moment, then understood and coaxed him, "I've been waiting outside the door the whole time. My mother's flower cakes are out of the oven, and I wanted you to be the first to eat them. I've only been away for a short while, and you're angry already? I promise, next time I leave, I'll tell you in advance, okay?"
After she coaxed him, Pei Ji's expression softened.
Xue Huan felt amused and picked up a piece of flower cake and brought it to his mouth. "Here, try it. It's delicious, soft, sweet, and even has syrup inside."
Pei Ji was already tempted by the sweet aroma of the flower cake, but if he just opened his mouth and ate it, wouldn't it be too embarrassing? Is he so easy to coax?
Xue Huan waited for a while, and seeing that he didn't move, she simply took action, pinched his chin and forced him to open his mouth.
It was already in his mouth, so Pei Ji no longer tried to hold it back. He chewed it and his eyes lit up.
"How is it? It's delicious, right?"
Xue Huan also took one and started eating.
The flowers were watered with diluted spiritual spring water, and the water used to make the cakes was also mixed with spiritual spring water. Combined with Xue's mother's own craftsmanship, the taste of the flower cakes was really amazing.
Every bite is a pleasure.
Pei Ji snorted softly and said stubbornly, "No way, it's far inferior to the snacks made in the imperial kitchen. It's just edible."
While saying this, his hands were already honestly moving towards the next piece of cake.
Xue Huan was displeased when she heard this. She narrowed her eyes dangerously and slapped his hand away. "I'm so sorry. I actually served such vulgar food to His Majesty. I deserve to die."
Pei Ji sat on the chair and watched her walk away with the plate. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but nothing came out.
Looking at the ground, a feeling of grievance welled up in my heart.
Actually, the flower cakes were delicious, and he shouldn't have said that. But she couldn't have been so sarcastic and ridiculed him. Not only did she hit him, but she also left him here alone...
"Oh, are you crying?" A voice suddenly sounded. It was Xue Huan who had returned.
She squatted in front of him, looking up at him, as if she was really checking to see if he was crying.
Hate!
Pei Ji turned his face away proudly, but it was undeniable that he was very happy about her return, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
Xue Huan stood up and rubbed his head. "Alright, sister was just teasing you just now. Don't be unhappy."
Pei Ji said seriously: "Okay, then I forgive you."
"Puchi!" Xue Huan couldn't help laughing, this kid.
In the evening, when Xue Yao came back from school, he saw that there was an extra person in the house. He looked at Pei Ji curiously.
During dinner, Xue Jun came out of the house. The family sat at the dinner table. Xue Huan told them Pei Ji's "origin" again, and unified their story with them, asking them not to let anything slip when they left.
Xue Yao nodded repeatedly: "Don't worry, sister. If anyone asks me about this when we get out, I'll tell them what you said."
Xue Huan nodded with satisfaction and rewarded him with a piece of braised pork ribs.
For dinner, she cooked the spare ribs she bought, one dish was braised, the other was made into soup, and she also stir-fried choy sum with lard and pork liver with garlic sprouts. The five people at the table were very satisfied with the meal.
Pei Ji ate two bowls of rice and drank a large bowl of pork ribs and yam soup. He was shocked at his own appetite.
Before, he only ate a small bowl of rice. After all, in the palace, people emphasized eating small meals frequently. Each meal had a variety of dishes, but the portions were relatively small. He was almost full after eating a bowl and drinking half a bowl of soup.
Now he had actually eaten so much, and he felt that he was not completely full yet and could eat more, but he did not feel comfortable adding more rice and put down his chopsticks.
It’s all because the food Xue Huan cooks is so delicious, even better than the food cooked by the imperial chef.
When his memory is restored, he will take her back to the palace and let her be responsible for the meals in his palace.
Pei Sansui thought silently in his heart.
Xue Huan had no idea that he was thinking about such good things in his mind. When she saw him put down his chopsticks, she thought he was full and started to clean up.
Xue Yao tried to snatch it away, but was pushed away by Xue Huan. "Didn't you say the teacher assigned an essay? Go do your homework, and leave the dishes to me."
She quickly stacked the bowls and plates, one bowl on top of another. It was a little hard to carry, so she casually sent Pei Ji to help her, "Help me carry this stack of plates."
