Chapter 16 I Can't Stand Waste
Vegetarian dishes, or green vegetables.
Chen Ting pursed his lips imperceptibly. Shen Wangshu, who was eating with his head down, didn't notice. Aunt Zhang beside him said, "The general has never liked to eat vegetarian food since he was a child. He has always loved meat and can't stand seeing any green vegetables on the table."
Just as he was about to bend over to help his master pick out the dishes from the bowl, he saw him eating the dishes with rice without any expression.
He didn't say anything, but anyone with a discerning eye could tell that he wasn't very happy eating.
Shen Wangshu pushed the only plate of green vegetables towards himself and poked the food in the bowl: "I understand. Next time I won't serve food to my husband without permission."
Chen Ting said "hmm" lightly and finished his meal, but he saw that the bowl in front of her was hardly touched. When he came to the table just now, there was only half a bowl of rice, and now there was still half a bowl, but she had eaten a lot of tasteless vegetable leaves.
Why don’t you eat well?
Chen Ting stared at her seriously: "Is the food not to your liking?"
Shen Wangshu shook his head: “I’m full.”
Although she didn't want to waste food, the original owner had a very small appetite. Not only did she often have a poor appetite, but she would feel full after eating just a little - no wonder she was so thin.
As a medical student, Shen Wangshu certainly knew that this was not good, so he had been trying hard to adjust himself after arriving here. He had been quite effective in other aspects, but when it came to eating, he really couldn't eat, and there was nothing he could do about it.
I was overwhelmed by the smell of blood just now, and now I have no appetite at all. Not only do I not want to eat, I also feel like vomiting.
But could she say it so directly? Of course not, Shen Wangshu had to swallow his bitterness.
Chen Ting stared at the rice in her bowl for a moment, took it and put it in his own bowl, then ate it up with two bites of food. Then he put down the bowl and said, "Next time, if you want to eat anything, ask the kitchen to make it. You are too thin."
Shen Wangshu complained in his heart, I have to eat one bite at a time, I won’t be going to the battlefield, so I don’t need to be so strong.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Chen Ting thought that his behavior of eating her food was inappropriate, and he defended himself with a stern face: "During the war, there was not much food. When I was hungry, I ate grass roots, tree bark, leaves and insects. I couldn't bear to see it wasted."
This is educating herself, Shen Wangshu quickly switched to a well-behaved look: “I know, husband, I won’t waste it next time.”
Chen Ting nodded, and the two of them looked at each other for a moment after lunch, some speechless, and then he got up and left.
The maids cleaned the table in an orderly manner. After cleaning their mouths after the meal, there was nothing else to do. Shen Wangshu said, "Let's go to the courtyard to digest the food."
Wutong suggested, "The sun is shining brightly in the afternoon, Madam, why don't you go to Green Shadow Garden? Not only are there many trees and cool shades, but there are also winding paths and many exotic flowers and plants."
Exotic flowers and plants?
Shen Wangshu became interested: “Okay.”
Green Shadow Garden is right inside Xuanji Courtyard. The sunlight in the early summer afternoon is not that scorching. Wutong holds an umbrella to shade her from the sun and quietly introduces places to her as they walk.
After a while, sweat started to seep out of Shen Wangshu's nose, her face became rosy, and her chest rose and fell slightly. When she got closer, Wutong could even smell the faint scent of medicine on her body.
"Madam, are you tired?" There was still a long way to go before the destination. Seeing that she was a little out of breath after walking this distance, Wutong said, "Why don't you go back first? It will be the same next time you come back."
Mei Xue also said: "Madam is so weak, you should take care of yourself first before talking about other things."
On the way here just now, Shen Wangshu saw the study, and further ahead was a bamboo forest. She didn't know if this was the Green Shadow Garden that Wutong mentioned, but she still remembered the forbidden area that Aunt Zhang mentioned - it should be there if she passed through this bamboo forest.
Something like that just happened, Shen Wangshu didn't want to test how much trust Chen Ting had in him, so he said, "Then let's go back."
