Wu Juan happily took the chicken porridge she had been longing for and quickly took a sip, but the porridge was fresh out of the pot and very hot!
She only remembered after she put the food in her mouth, but the porridge was so fragrant that she couldn't bear to spit it out. However, it was too hot to swallow, so she could only keep stamping her feet and breathing out with her mouth open!
Trying to cool down the porridge in my mouth!
Lin Ru had guessed that she would do this, and originally wanted to give her a reminder, but she didn't expect her to act so quickly!
Helpless, she walked to the water vat, scooped up a ladle of cold water, and handed it over!
"Spit out the hot porridge in your mouth and drink some cold water to cool it down!"
"Don't burn your mouth!"
Wu Juan still couldn't bear to spit out that mouthful of chicken porridge. They used to always go hungry, and now that they were with Lin Ru, although they could eat their fill, her inherent frugality made it impossible for her to give up this hard-earned food!
So he took the cold water, took a big gulp, and only swallowed it after the chicken porridge in his mouth cooled down!
Seeing Lin Ru's somewhat disapproving look, she grinned and ran off with the porridge!
Lin Ru reminded him from behind, "Let it cool down before you drink it! There's still some left in the pot!"
Wu Juan: "Okay! I'll let it cool down before I drink it! I'll go get someone now!"
After Wu Juan left, only she and Wu Ling were left in the kitchen!
Lin Ru handed over another bowl of chicken porridge she was holding!
With a broad smile, he said, "Here you go! Eat up! If those brats come over, you won't get to eat much!"
Wu Ling kept his head down the whole time, afraid that if he raised his head, the emotions in his eyes would frighten Lin Ru!
Lin Ru noticed that Wu Ling remained silent and realized something was wrong!
"Wu Ling! What's wrong with you? Are you jealous like Wu Juan?"
Upon hearing the word "jealousy," Wu Ling's ears involuntarily turned red!
Lin Ru looked at him with his head down, like a wronged golden retriever!
And then I watched helplessly as his ears turned red!
She couldn't help but find it amusing. Using the same tone she had used to coax Wu Juan, she soothed Wu Ling, "Alright! Alright! Don't worry, of course I like you both the most!"
"Hurry up and eat! Those brats will really be here soon."
Looking at the steaming porridge, Wu Ling cautiously asked, "You really don't like Xu Yixuan?"
Lin Ru smiled and shook her head, saying, "I don't like it!"
Upon hearing this answer, Wu Ling's panicked heart gradually calmed down.
However, he still said with a wronged expression, "Then why are you so good to him! Not only did you ride in the same carriage with him, but you also gave him precious medicine. Now that you know he is in danger, you are very worried!"
"This porridge must contain many good ingredients, just to help everyone recover their strength as soon as possible so we can go there tonight to save that young master Xu!"
Looking at his downcast and aggrieved expression, Lin Ru suddenly felt a pang of longing for Xiao Yue!
Now, Xiaoyue is really thriving in Shanping County. The people all believe that it is a messenger of the gods, so wherever it goes, it is respected and many people feed it!
It's so happy it doesn't want to leave. I was thinking of taking it with me, but it went out to show off early this morning, and I don't know where it went!
Because of the urgency, they left!
Even though I can't touch Xiaoyue's fluffy head now, it's nice to touch the big head in front of me!
She smiled and raised her other hand to ruffle Wu Ling's hair!
"Many things in this world don't make sense, just like the connection between us, just like my becoming your clan leader!"
"It simply doesn't make sense!"
"I feel the same way about Xu Yixuan! I must have owed him something in my past life, like a life. I have to repay him in this life, otherwise I'll be bound to him!"
"But I really like you guys the most! Anyway, I don't like him for now! And I probably won't like him in the future either! After all, his marriage belongs to someone else!"
"You wouldn't understand even if I explained! Let's eat!"
Wu Ling was even more embarrassed by the sudden touch. He finally relaxed after hearing what was said next. But when he raised his hand to take the bowl of porridge, Lin Ru still noticed the hole in his sleeve!
"What happened to your sleeves? Why are they like this now? They weren't like this when you came in."
"Could it have been broken for a while? Why didn't you say so sooner?"
"I already said, since you've followed me, I'll naturally make sure you live a good life!"
"So just say it's damaged!"
A little embarrassed, Wu Ling withdrew the bowl of porridge she had received with her left hand and took it back with her right.
Then he stammered and left!
Lin Ru stood there watching their retreating figures, each one faster than the last, and didn't know what to say!
She shook her head, picked up a tray, ladled out four more bowls of porridge, and then went back into the house!
By the time she entered the room, Xiao Liangzi was already awake!
He saw Lin Ru and quickly propped himself up to sit up, but because he moved too fast, the wounds that had just been bandaged on his body reopened and started bleeding! But he was completely unaware of it!
He had already heard that the porridge was made by the clan chief himself. When Wu Juan came to call him, her sarcastic tone and jealous expression made him feel particularly embarrassed, since he had not completed the mission and had returned in such a sorry state!
Seeing blood seeping through the originally white gauze, Lin Ru frowned and said, "Lie down quickly! You're injured! You need to rest and recover!"
Wu Liang struggled to get out of bed and immediately knelt on the ground, his face full of guilt!
"Chief! I have failed in my mission! I have let you down! I am truly ashamed of you! Please punish me!"
Lin Ru carried a bowl of porridge to him and said sternly, "Fine! Then let me punish you properly. Your punishment is to finish this bowl of porridge!"
"We'll talk about the rest later. You should take over now. I'm so tired from carrying this pot of porridge!"
"I wonder if this bowl is enough for you?"
"How about trying my cooking?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Liang burst into tears!
Lin Ru was at a loss. "Lin Bai! Lin Mo! You two come here quickly! Let me see what's wrong with him. Did he cry because my porridge smells so good?"
Lin Bai and Lin Mo were also a little confused. They put down the porridge in their hands and quickly went over!
"Brother Liang! What's wrong? Why are you crying? Did your wound reopen and hurt?"
Xiao Liangzi was crying so hard he couldn't catch his breath and couldn't say a word!
Lin Bai and Lin Mo quickly and carefully lifted him onto the bed!
Check his wounds!
