Chapter 72 Everyone was scared



Shen Chuwei looked at herself in the mirror and found that there were many red spots on her face that looked like rashes. No wonder Chunxi was so scared.

"My lady, why is your face like this?" Chunxi cried, because she was scared and anxious.

Seeing Chunxi crying so sadly, Shen Chuwei could only comfort her: "It's just a few red spots. It's no big deal."

Chunxi cried and said, "My lady, don't you know how important a girl's face is? My lady is favored, what if she loses favor because of this?"

Shen Chu paused when she heard this. She thought that Xiao Jinyan even disliked the scar on her chest. If she had a scar on her face, he would probably dislike it even more! After all, which man doesn't love beauties? What's more, Xiao Jinyan is surrounded by beauties. When he returns to the palace, if he sees her face, he will probably be scared away.

Chunxi cried for a while, and suddenly remembered the plate of cakes from last night. She grabbed Shen Chuwei's hand and said, "My lady, based on what I've seen in the palace fights, there must be something wrong with the plate of cakes from last night."

Shen Chuwei nodded in agreement, because she knew that there was something wrong with the pastries and she also knew what the consequences would be if she ate them.

So she ate all the cakes last night with a full stomach.

"Shen Liangyuan must be jealous of the young lady's favor, so she did such a cruel thing." Chunxi said indignantly.

After saying that, Chunxi felt something was wrong again. She touched her face and looked puzzled: "But I also ate cakes, why don't I have any red spots on my face?"

Shen Chuwei reminded: "Because you only ate one piece."

That's why she ate it all.

"I see." Chunxi looked at the red spots on Shen Chuwei's face and saw that she was about to cry again, "My lady, what are you going to do with your face?"

Shen Chuwei patted Chunxi's hand in a soothing manner, "I'm hungry, let's eat first."

Chunxi wiped away her tears and said, "My lady, do you still have the heart to eat? If it were someone else, they would have burst into tears a long time ago."

Shen Chuwei said: "Food is the most important thing for people. If you don't eat, you will be hungry. Do you understand?"

Chunxi was stunned for a moment. How could she forget that her little master only knew how to eat. If she didn't eat for a day, she would probably cry~

“…Alright!”

Chunxi helped Shen Chuwei wash and dress up.

Looking at the red spots on Shen Chuwei's fair little face, Chunxi was worried, "My lady, I'll use more gouache to cover them up."

Shen Chuwei directly refused, "That's it, no need to cover it."

Chunxi looked at the red spots and felt so distressed, but she still followed her master's instructions and did not use watercolor.

At this time, the Shen family members stood in a row in the restaurant, waiting for Shen Chuwei to come for breakfast.

Madam Shen saw that Shen Chuwei had not come yet, and thought that it must be because the medicine had taken effect. She turned her head to look at Shen Haisheng and couldn't help complaining, "Master, it's already so late, and Shen Liangdi hasn't come yet. She relies on the favor of His Highness and doesn't take the Master seriously at all."

Shen Mingzhu did not forget to fan the flames, "You are relying on your highness's favor and don't take us seriously."

Shen Haisheng waited and waited but Shen Chuwei didn't show up for dinner, and he became a little impatient. Even though Shen Chuwei was Liangdi, she was still his daughter. Why would he keep them waiting?

"Send a maid to ask."

Madam Shen sent a capable maid to ask.

The maid came in with small steps, "Shen Liang Di, the master and the mistress are waiting for the young lady to have dinner."

Shen Chuwei turned around and looked at the maid and said, "Go and tell your father, I'll be there soon."

The maid looked up and saw Shen Chuwei's face was red. She stepped back in fear and said, "I will go and reply right away."

After saying that, he turned around and ran out, shouting as he ran: "Oh no, Shen Liangdi has smallpox."

Shen Chuwei: “…”

Chunxi "..."

After Shen Chuwei got dressed and went to the restaurant, she saw that there was no one in the restaurant. Everyone was standing outside, ten meters away.

Shen Chuwei looked curious, "Father and mother, why are you standing so far away? Don't you want to have breakfast?"

Shen Haisheng was extremely frightened, but he pretended to be calm and said, "Wei'er, father has asked someone to ask a doctor to treat you. It might not be smallpox, so don't run around."

Shen Chuwei nodded obediently, "Okay, I'll go eat first."

After saying that, she lifted her skirt and walked into the restaurant. There was no one inside, only a table of delicious food.

Shen Chuwei sat down at the dining table, picked up chopsticks and started eating.

Chunxi looked at Shen Chuwei as if nothing had happened, but she herself was extremely frightened, "My lady, aren't you afraid that it is really smallpox?"

Shen Chuwei took a bite of the meat bun and looked at Chunxi with puffed cheeks, "Are you afraid?"

Chunxi's hand holding the handkerchief trembled, "Of course I am afraid. Smallpox can kill people. Even if I am afraid, I will stay by my side, young master."

Shen Chuwei took Chunxi's hand and said, "Come on, have some breakfast to calm your nerves."

Chunxi said hurriedly: "My lady, this is outside, it's against the rules."

This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

Shen Chuwei took another bite of the meat bun and said, "It's okay, they don't dare to approach the restaurant."

Chunxi thought that the group of people outside were already scared to death, and they would not come in even if they were dragged in.

Besides, she is hungry now. Just like what the young lady said, even if she dies, she wants to die with a full stomach.

What's more, the young lady doesn't necessarily have smallpox.

Chunxi thought about this and sat down with peace of mind to have breakfast together.

After the two of them had eaten and drunk their fill, the doctor was called in.

When the doctor was treating Shen Chuwei, the Shen family still didn't dare to get close and all stayed outside.

The doctor saw the red rash on Shen Chuwei's face and guessed what was wrong. He took out a face towel to cover her face and ordered, "Give Shen Liangdi a face towel. You should also wear one to avoid infection."

"Oh." Chunxi hurriedly took out the face mask, put it on Shen Chuwei, and then put it on herself.

After a thorough examination, the doctor concluded that "Shen Liangdi has smallpox."

Chunxi said angrily, "No way, how could my young master get smallpox when she is fine? You must have misdiagnosed it."

"I have been practicing medicine for more than 20 years. How could I have made a misdiagnosis? Smallpox is difficult to treat, and the mortality rate is high. Even if it is cured, it will leave a scar on the face. I will take my leave now."

After the doctor finished speaking, he picked up the medicine box and ran away.

When Shen Haisheng saw the doctor coming out, he asked hurriedly, "Doctor, how is my daughter?"

The doctor bowed and said, "Sir, Shen Liangdi has smallpox."

As we all know, smallpox is a highly contagious disease with a very low survival rate.

So when the doctor finished speaking, everyone present was shocked and took a big step back.

Shen Haisheng took two steps back in fright. He originally wanted to take advantage of the breakfast time to talk to his youngest daughter and ask her to mention her sister Shen Mingzhu more in front of His Highness.

Now, the eldest daughter was bitten by a dog and the youngest daughter has smallpox and won’t live long. No one can be relied on.

Mrs. Shen was too guilty to speak. It was clearly a disfiguring medicine, so how could it turn out to be smallpox?

The young master explained: The heroine is very young, and in modern times she is a miracle doctor, and she also lives off of free food and drinks.

Although she is a foodie, she knows what she can eat and what she cannot eat. She dares to eat even poisonous food because she knows her limits.

The story also explains why the heroine wants to eat the problematic cakes. (More importantly, the heroine has spiritual spring water, so poison is not a problem for her...)         (End of this chapter)
