Chapter 15 Don't save, buy more after you finish drinking

Lu Jingzhen didn't know that Xia Qingling worked in a state-owned factory yet. After hearing this, he realized that she was so weak because she had no money and didn't eat enough.

Realizing this, Lu Jingzhen suddenly felt a little guilty. He had never taken care of her or sent her money because he was angry. She was often bullied and had no money. How did she live like this?

When he brought her to the hospital last night, she was just curled up in his arms, as light as a cat, and looked really pitiful.

Although he didn't like her, she married him after all, and he had responsibilities towards her.

"Well, you don't have to save money anymore in the future." Lu Jingchen said seriously, as if he was making a promise.

Xia Qingling didn't expect Lu Jingchen to cooperate with him so much, and a smile appeared on her face unconsciously.

Pu Yue originally wanted to embarrass her, so she said that, but she didn't expect to eat dog food. She didn't want to listen to any more love words from the two of them, so she said:

"If you don't have a fever in the afternoon, you can go home." After saying that, she thought for a while and continued:

"If you are worried, you can also get nutrient solution for another two days."

"Well, we lose." Lu Jingchen answered without thinking.

Seeing Lu Jingchen caring so much about Xia Qingxi, Pu Yue felt very uncomfortable and didn't want to stay here any longer. She said, "Okay, I'll go write you a prescription." Then she walked out of the ward.

Seeing Pu Yue leave in a huff, Xia Qingxi felt much better. Then she looked at Lu Jingchen and began to apologize:

"I'm sorry for what happened just now."

"What?" Lu Jingchen was puzzled.

"I took the initiative to help you reject Dr. Pu's invitation." Xia Qingchen said, and then hurriedly explained:

"I saw that you didn't seem to want to go with her, and I was afraid that you would be embarrassed to reject her in person, so I said that."

"It's okay." Lu Jingchen said, he was going to refuse anyway.

"I'm glad you're not angry." Seeing that he didn't take it to heart, Xia Qingxi felt relieved.

Lu Jingxie was now her talisman, and she didn't want to make him unhappy.

The two didn't say anything else. Lu Jingxie went to wash the lunch box and went downstairs to eat.

Xia Qingxi received nutrient solution for two more days. She was ready to go home only when her body was almost well. Wang Mingfang came twice and stewed a chicken for her. She was always considerate when it came to face-saving projects.

Xia Qingxi didn't hesitate to drink the chicken soup and eat the chicken. This body just needed some nourishment, and it would be a waste not to eat it.

In the afternoon, the two packed up, paid the fees, and left the hospital. Xia Qingli thought they were going to go home directly, but unexpectedly, Lu Jingzhen took her to a department store and bought two 800-gram bottles of maltose.

Although he didn't say it explicitly, Xia Qingli knew that he bought it specifically for her to replenish her body.

Maltose was a top luxury food in this era, and a bottle cost more than ten yuan. Lu Jingzhen paid without blinking an eye, and he bought it for himself, a person he didn't like very much. It seems that he is really rich.

Well, not only rich, but also generous.

Because Lu Jingzhen still had things to do, he took the things home and put them on the table in the living room, and then went out.

Xia Qingxi went to the room first and prepared to clean up.

At this time, He Shanshan, who had just finished work, also returned home. As soon as she entered the house, she saw the malted milk on the table, and her eyes lit up instantly.

She couldn't wait to run into the kitchen, took her exclusive small white porcelain bowl, poured a bowl of boiling water into it, and then walked to the table and opened the lid of the malted milk.

As soon as the lid was opened, a strong aroma of malt, cream and milk mixed with malt hit her nose, making her drool.

She worked in the supply and marketing cooperative, and every noon she saw their leader making a small cup of malted milk to drink. The tempting aroma filled the air, causing all the clerks to swallow their saliva.

After returning home, she begged Wang Mingfang to buy some, but a can cost more than ten yuan, which was too expensive.

Except for Xia Qingxiang who looked frail, everyone else in their family was in good health and didn't need any supplements.

That's why the family had never bought any for a long time.

Now, suddenly seeing two big jars on the table, how could she not be excited?

She hadn't even washed her hands, and just wanted to pick up the spoon to scoop into the bowl, she heard a dissatisfied voice behind her:

"What are you doing?"

He Shanshan turned her head and saw Xia Qingxiang looking at her with sullen eyes.

Xia Qingxiang didn't expect that while she was tidying up the sheets, He Shanshan was almost eating her maltose.

Although she was not a stingy person, she was not the Virgin Mary, and she would not generously give such an expensive thing to someone like He Shanshan.

"Why do you care what I do?" He Shanshan didn't take her seriously at all, picked up the spoon and planned to continue scooping:

"You are blind, you can't see."

Seeing her so arrogant, Xia Qingxi was not used to her, walked forward, snatched the jar, and said:

"This is not bought for you, if you want to eat it, go buy it yourself."

The maltose that was about to be in her mouth was snatched away, and He Shanshan was instantly angry. She didn't care whose it was. Since it was taken back and since she saw it, it was hers.

She looked at Xia Qingxi viciously, put her hands on her waist, and shouted loudly:

"What's yours and mine? Yours is also mine. Give it to me, you stinky girl." Then she grabbed it directly.

How could Xia Qingxi's small body be a match for He Shanshan, who was so strong? The jar was snatched away by her. She held the jar with a smug look on her face and said arrogantly:

"What's wrong with eating some of your food?" After saying that, she raised her hand and pushed Xia Qingxi fiercely.

She was as strong as an ox. Xia Qingxi was pushed back quickly and almost fell. At this time, Lu Jingzhen walked into the room and quickly supported her shoulders.

After Xia Qingxi stood firm, Lu Jingzhen's face darkened and his cold eyes swept across He Shanshan's face.

He Shanshan felt guilty when he looked at her. She didn't know why, but every time she met Lu's frightened eyes, she felt a little scared. It wasn't because he looked scary, but mainly because his serious aura was too strong to be ignored.

"I... I didn't mean it." He Shanshan said with a guilty look, stuttering, and then she unconsciously put the maltose in her hand on the table.

"If you dare to lay hands on her again next time." Lu Jingzhen suppressed his anger and said coldly:

"I don't mind making you unable to lift your arms again."

After hearing this, He Shanshan's face turned pale, obviously shocked. Lu Jingzhen didn't say anything else and went back to the room directly.

After Lu Jingzhen left, Xia Qingling walked to the table, covered the lid of the malted milk in front of He Shanshan, and took away both jars. He Shanshan

watched Xia Qingling carrying two jars of malted milk into the room with her eyes wide open, and then looked at the pitiful amount of malted milk stuck on the spoon in her hand. She felt ashamed, wronged and jealous, but she didn't dare to say anything.

Xia Qingxi returned to the room and put two bottles of malted milk on the table. She still felt a little scared. Even though she was not as cowardly as she used to be, she still couldn't protect herself with her weak body in the face of the absolute physical advantage.

Fortunately, Lu Jingzhen came back, so they didn't dare to be so presumptuous. She secretly made up her mind: I must hold on to this thigh!

She went to the kitchen and brought in two bowls. She scooped two tablespoons of malted milk into each bowl. The malted milk dissolved immediately when it came into contact with water. She stirred it with a spoon, and the rich and heavy fragrance instantly spread.

She placed one of the bowls in front of Lu Jingchen, who did not drink it. Instead, he said to her,

"No, just drink it yourself."

He was in good health and did not need to take supplements. Only a body like hers that was malnourished and had to go for an IV for a minor cold should take supplements.

When he first saw her so weak, he wondered if she was too picky about food, but when he heard her say it was because she wanted to save money and saw He Shanshan being so overbearing just now, he understood the real reason.

"It's all ready, you can drink some too." Xia Qingling said as she picked up her own bowl and drank slowly.

She held the bowl, her small face almost completely covered by the bowl.

She always ate in a gentle manner, and now she drank in small sips.

But in Lu Jingchen's eyes, this action made him feel reluctant to drink it. He put the bowl in front of him in front of her and said calmly:

"Don't save it, buy more after you finish it."

Xia Qingxing replied "OK", then poked her head out of the big bowl, with some milk stains on the corners of her lips. Her small face looked delicate and cute.

Lu Jingchen himself didn't even notice that when he looked at Xia Qingxing, the corners of his lips were slightly bent.
