058 Joke

"We'll wait until you finish your medicine before we leave."

Well, the truth is, they just want to watch the fun.

Feng Qingchen looked proud and fearless, but she was afraid of taking medicine. Every time her maid fed her medicine, it was like a life-and-death battle.

"No need, I can drink it myself." Feng Qingchen felt warm in his heart.

She knew very well that Su Wenqing and Wang Qi cared about her life and death because they still needed her, but they had done their utmost to do this.

"We are just afraid that you will drink by yourself. Anyway, we have waited for so many days, so this moment doesn't matter." Su Wenqing smiled lightly, seemingly gentle but domineering and ruthless, telling Feng Qingchen clearly that he would not leave and not to waste his energy.

Not only that, he also picked up the teacup and teapot on the table and poured himself some tea, as if he didn't consider himself an outsider.

"puff……"

As soon as he took a sip, Su Wenqing spat it out: "Why is it water and not tea?"

The people of Dongling love tea. Not only the Su family, but even in ordinary homes, there is tea on the table.

Only the untouchables and the common people who really can't afford tea would drink clear water.

Of course, when it comes to good tea, the tea ceremony is also very popular. Every lady in Dongling can make good tea, and the art of dividing tea is a skill that women must learn.

As a lady from a wealthy family, if you don't know how to serve tea, then you are not worthy of being called a lady. Tea art is as important as needlework.

Feng Qingchen certainly knew this. Not to mention that she didn't know how to practice tea ceremony, even if she did, she didn't have the leisure time to practice it.

The tea ceremony is something that only women who have a family and a husband to support them and don't have to make a living on their own can afford. Besides, what's wrong with plain water?

Feng Qingchen moved the corners of her lips, but said nothing in the end. She had no ability to change the habits of the Dongling people.

"Qingchen, you don't know how to serve tea?" Wang Qi suspected that he had seen the point of the problem.

"No." She only knew how to brew water and tea leaves together. Separating tea was too technical and she couldn't learn it.

The so-called "fencha" means forming patterns of flowers, birds, fish, insects or words on the surface of the tea soup through the use of different techniques when making tea. "fencha" is also known as "painting in water". How could she create such an elegant thing?

In her eyes, tea is used to refresh the mind and can replace coffee.

"What will you do during the Peach Blossom Festival?" Wang Qi looked at Feng Qingchen worriedly.

It looks like Feng Qingchen will be in the spotlight again at the Peach Blossom Festival, but this spotlight is not a good one.

"We need to share tea at the Peach Blossom Festival?" Feng Qingchen looked at Wang Qi in confusion.

Wang Qi and Su Wenqing nodded at the same time: "You don't know?"

"I don't know..." She thought that the Peach Blossom Festival was just like a modern banquet, with eating, drinking, and chatting.

The only means those women could use were to form an alliance and leave her alone at the Peach Blossom Festival, or to ridicule her with words to satisfy their own urges. Unexpectedly, they even put on a talent show.

"You don't know, you don't know, but you dare to accept Princess Anping's invitation?" Su Wenqing and Wang Qi stood up at the same time, looking at Feng Qingchen in disbelief.

"Feng Qingchen, you are too bold. Do you know that the Peach Blossom Festival can cost lives?"

Every few years, one or two young ladies from official families would die during the Peach Blossom Festival.

"Will people die? What is the purpose of the Peach Blossom Festival?" Feng Qingchen now became serious.

She cares about everything that is related to her life.

Su Wenqing and Wang Qi shook their heads repeatedly. Just as they were about to introduce Feng Qingchen to what happened at the Peach Blossom Festival, Doctor Sun came in with medicine.

"Miss Feng, the medicine is ready, drink it while it's hot."

"Drink the medicine first. We can talk about anything else after you drink it. It's still a long time before the Peach Blossom Festival. There's no need to rush." ​​Su Wenqing pointed at the medicine that was emitting white smoke, motioning Feng Qingchen to drink it first.

It would be better to wait until Feng Qingchen recovers before discussing the matter of the Peach Blossom Festival. Otherwise, worrying too much during the illness would affect his recovery.

Feng Qingchen saw that Su Wenqing and Wang Qi's expressions were not as solemn as before. In addition, she was not in a good condition to think too much, so she stopped asking and reached out to take the medicine bowl from the tray, but found...

Her hands were so weak that she couldn't even hold a bowl of medicine. A trace of pain flashed across Feng Qingchen's face. The maid waiting at the side was very smart and immediately stepped forward to hold Feng Qingchen's hand: "Miss, I will help you with the medicine."

"Thank you." Feng Qingchen nodded slightly, and with the help of the maid, he picked up the medicine bowl.

The strong smell of Chinese medicine wafted into his nose. Just by smelling it, he knew how unpalatable this bowl of medicine was. Feng Qingchen's whole face wrinkled.

traditional Chinese medicine……

It’s so hard to drink!

Hahaha……

Feng Qingchen's frowning expression pleased Su Wenqing, Wang Qi and Zhou Xing. The three of them laughed out loud, sweeping away their previous depression.

"You are not kind." At this time, Feng Qingchen realized that they were waiting here not because they were worried about her, but because they wanted to see her painful expression when she drank the medicine.

It seemed that she had struggled with these bitter medicines when she was unconscious, so much so that these people knew that she was afraid of taking medicine.

She was happy for nothing, she thought these people were concerned about her, but it turned out they were just there to watch her have fun.

Feng Qingchen glared at the three men in annoyance, closed his eyes, picked up the bowl and put it to his mouth.

When she was unconscious, she would instinctively refuse to take the medicine, but when she was awake she would never do that. No matter how unpalatable the medicine was, she could drink it down with her strong willpower.

Seeing Feng Qingchen's generous and selfless look, Su Wenqing couldn't help but speak up: "Feng Qingchen, why do you have to worry about it? It's just a bowl of medicine, why do you treat it like it's going to cost you your life?"

He knew that many women were afraid of taking medicine, but it was rare to find someone like Feng Qingchen.

Feng Qingchen finally made up his mind and was ready to drink it in one breath, but was interrupted by Su Wenqing's words.

He opened his eyes and glared at Su Wenqing unhappily.

It's easy to talk without any pain in the waist. If you have the guts, come and try it.

Feng Qingchen took a deep breath, suppressed his fear of the medicine, and said calmly: "You think too much, it's just a bowl of medicine, I can drink it with my eyes closed."

Lose the battle but not the person.

Under the teasing gazes of Su Wenqing and Wang Qi, Feng Qingchen decisively closed his eyes, picked up the medicine bowl and poured it into his mouth.

Gulu, Gulu...

bitter!

So bitter!

It’s so miserable!

Feng Qingchen's eyebrows were twisted into the shape of a caterpillar, and he looked so painful, as if he was forced to drink poison.

However, Wang Qi and Su Wenqing didn't dare to laugh at this time. They were afraid that if they laughed, Feng Qingchen would spit out the medicine.

Gurgle, gurgle.

No matter how hard it is, you have to hold on and not let anyone look down on you.

Feng Qingchen kept giving himself mental encouragement, and finally the bowl of medicine was finished.

"Water, water, give me water."

Feng Qingchen reached out hurriedly.

She felt that her heart and lungs were bitter, and her mouth was full of bitterness. When she opened her mouth, she could smell the smell of medicine. If she didn't drink some water to suppress the smell of medicine, she would definitely vomit it out.

She felt her stomach churning. A lot of the medicine she had just taken was still in her throat. She could spit it out as long as she opened her mouth.

This medicine tastes so bad!

"Miss, please bear with it, the water is here." The maid seemed very experienced. While supporting Feng Qingchen and helping her to calm down, she signaled another maid to pour water.

There was no way. Feng Qingchen had been vomiting too badly these past few days. It was a rare chance for her not to vomit. They were so happy that they finally didn’t have to be tormented by Miss Feng.

"Wait, I'll ask someone to prepare tea for you." Su Wenqing said quickly.

Tea tastes better than plain water and can better suppress the smell of medicine.

"No, tea can counteract the effects of the drug. Give me water, quickly." Feng Qingchen was almost dying of anxiety, craning his neck to look at the roof.

She estimated that if she lowered her head, she would spit out the medicine she had just taken.

She bet that Su Wenqing and Wang Qi were here just to see her vomit the medicine, so...

Even if you beat her to death, she won't spit out the medicine.

She would hold it in, even if it meant death, and would never let these three people laugh at her, Feng Qingchen.

Feng Qingchen closed his lips tightly, looked serious, and stopped talking!

Su Wenqing and Wang Qi didn't dare to laugh. They were afraid that if they laughed, Feng Qingchen would get angry...
