Chapter 290 Just Be Yourself (2/2)



The next day, when Shen Heng got up, she found that the snow on the roof was half an arm high. The servants were playing in the snow, and there were some snowmen in the yard. Each snowman had a different shape and was worth looking at.

From time to time, you can hear the sound of firecrackers.

It’s a bit early to hear the sound of firecrackers before the New Year, and there is still some time before the Chinese New Year.

A burst of rice aroma wafted by, and Shen Heng's nose twitched, and she walked into the kitchen happily: "Sister-in-law, what's that smell? It's fragrant."

"This is pickled cabbage made using the traditional Wujin method, and then made into noodles. This is Madam's second bowl." Xia was scooping up the noodles in her hand. "Hurry up and sit down. I'll give you this one first."

Nanny Feng took a few sips of the soup and said, "Master Wu, the way you cook it is truly delicious."

It was a simple breakfast, with no sauerkraut, only golden soup and a roll of noodles with chopped green onions on top, which was crystal clear and very appetizing.

Shen Heng first drank a mouthful of the soup, and instantly her whole body was perked up. It was delicious.

"It seems your appetite has returned. It's worth it that Madam Xia asked Master Wu for pickled cabbage to stimulate your appetite." Nanny Feng smiled as she watched Shen Heng eat with a satisfied look on her face.

"Thank you, sister-in-law." Chen Heng didn't expect her sister-in-law to be so considerate: "Sister-in-law, Ajian said that he would invite a doctor to come to our house in two days to check the pulse of the whole family."

"Yes." Xia nodded happily. She was actually in good health. She had gotten through all the minor illnesses and pains over the years. However, the nanny was old, so it was not easy for her to feel her pulse.

In the next few days, the atmosphere of the New Year became more and more intense.

Xiao Miner would come over from time to time to stay overnight, chat with the family, and give away his drawings to everyone.

When Chen Heng saw that the signature was from Eunuch Lian Xi, her face changed drastically. Then she took a quick look and saw that it was from Young Master Lian Xi. Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.

"Auntie, don't you want to see my painting?" Little Miner asked in a childish voice when she saw her aunt's startled look.

"Look. It's so lifelike, just like the real thing. Min'er, when will you paint that picture of fish playing on lotus leaves?" What Chen Heng wanted to see most was this masterpiece that has been passed down through the ages.

Xiao Min'er was a little surprised: "Aunt, why do you like that painting so much?"

It's incredibly valuable, Chen Heng said, "Because that was Xiao Min'er's first serious painting, Auntie thought it was very meaningful and had to keep it as a treasure."

Auntie was really kind to him. Little Xie Min said happily, "Although the painting is simple, it is a bit difficult to capture the spirit of it. I need to think about it more."

"Hey, Auntie is waiting." No, take your time.

Five days later, the snow had melted, the weather was clear and the sun was warm.

It happened that Xie Jian was on leave, so he invited the imperial physician to come to his home to check the pulse of the whole family.

When she heard that it was the imperial physician, Xia sat down with a little nervousness, but then she thought, she is the sister-in-law of the Secretary of State, and she cannot lose face, so she straightened her body.

The imperial physician had a kind face and a gentle smile. "All emotional illnesses must originate from the liver. Madam, please do not be too emotionally distressed in the future. If you are too emotionally distressed for too long, it will also affect your mind."
