Nian Mu knew medicine, but Mr. Mu was worried that if she refused to take it, all his plans would be in vain, so he tried his best to make her believe that he had no intention of harming her.
"This is the soup prepared by the old man for you. The medicinal ingredients are all prepared by good doctors. Young people can take this soup after staying up late. It is good for the body." The housekeeper also helped to speak.
He knew the old man's plan.
The housekeeper has worked in this family for most of his life and has watched Mu Shaoling grow up, so his purpose is the same as the old man's, hoping that Mu Shaoling will get better.
At least he won't have to be so alone in the future, he will have the woman he likes by his side.
The old man did this without any malice. After all, it could be seen that they had a little affection for each other, but the movement progressed too slowly, so the old man was a little anxious.
It's not a bad thing to have outsiders pushing for it.
At least for Mu Shaoling, it's not a bad thing.
Nianmu looked at the soup in front of him, then glanced at the old man, and raised his eyebrows.
Mr. Mu met his suspicious eyes and said, "Drink quickly, can't I hurt you?"
"Old man, I just drank herbal tea an hour ago, and now I'm drinking this soup. I'm worried..." Nian Mu was worried about overdoing it. She usually paid attention to her body and took good care of herself, so she didn't need to take any supplements.
Moreover, after giving birth to little Niannian, Asa simply treated her like a medicine jar and often made her take various medicines. He did not regard her as a guinea pig for testing medicines, but to help her regulate her body.
The minor ailments I suffered from before, as well as many physical ailments caused by being too sad during pregnancy, were all cured by Asa.
Her current physique is better than most.
"Don't worry, the medicinal properties of this soup and that tea do not conflict with each other." Mr. Mu said with a smile, but his tone was better only when talking to her.
Taotao grabbed Nian Mu's sleeve and shook it, and said in a milky voice: "Sister, my grandpa has prepared this for you, just drink it."
Mu Shaoling on the side picked up the spoon and took a sip, frowning and said: "It really tastes bad."
Mr. Mu glared at him, "When have you ever seen medicine taste sweet?"
"Grandpa, the medicine made by my sister is sweet, like candy." Taotao raised his hand and answered.
Mr. Mu looked at his little great-grandson lovingly, "Of course, it's medicine for children, it must be sweet, but medicine for adults is a bit bitter, that's normal. Nian girl, drink it quickly, don't waste me.
A lot of thoughts.”
The old man has talked to this extent, and if Nian Mu doesn't stop talking, he won't give him face.
She picked up the spoon and took a sip.
Indeed, the taste of the soup was the same as the color, with the taste of medicine. After tasting it carefully, she felt that there were many medicinal ingredients. She could distinguish the simple ones, but there were many more. I am afraid you have to look at the medicinal residue to know what they are.
.
Although the soup had a medicinal smell, Nianmu looked calm and drank it all under the watch of the old man.
Taotao picked up a cherry tomato from the fruit plate and handed it to her, "Sister, the soup is very bitter, eat some fruit."
"It's okay, everything is okay." Nian Mu said. Although she was not afraid of hardship, she was not happy with the child, so she took the fruit and ate it.
Cai Xiufen looked on with jealousy.
She heard from the cook that Mr. Mu had purchased a batch of precious medicinal materials. Although she didn't know they were your medicinal materials, the old man had repeatedly told her to keep them sealed and dry because they had high medicinal value.
Maybe, all these medicinal materials have been made into this bowl of soup.
"Since this bowl of soup is so magical, I have been a little tired of taking care of Tianyu recently. Butler, go and bring me a bowl. Oh, by the way, Ruicheng and Ruirui are also busy recently. They have to bring three bowls.
Come here." Cai Xiufen said. Although she had seen many precious medicinal materials in the Mu family, she still didn't want to suffer a loss.
The butler looked troubled, three bowls?
It was okay for Murui Cheng and Du Ruirui to drink it, as they were husband and wife after all, but Cai Xiufen, if she drank that soup, she would probably have to struggle tonight.
Seeing that the housekeeper had no intention of serving her soup, Cai Xiufen asked with a straight face: "Why don't you go? Did you just make two bowls of soup?"
"Go and serve it to her. Just don't drink it for the child. These soups are too filling and not suitable for children to drink." Mr. Mu said. Cai Xiufen was greedy. After drinking the scented tea, she still wanted to drink the soup.
He had no intention of stopping her, she would suffer tonight.
After receiving the order, the butler could only obey and bring out the remaining soup.
Mu Ruicheng didn't want to drink it at first. After all, this was the soup that the old man prepared for Mu Shaoling. He didn't think it was anything. He was still young and it didn't matter if he was a little busy or tired.
He didn't feel jealous about the old man's special arrangements. After all, the old man wasn't really partial.
Mu Shaoling was indeed much more tired than him.
But Cai Xiufen insisted on Mu Ruicheng drinking it, "You have to drink a bowl of such a filling soup, otherwise how can you be worthy of the old man preparing it himself?"
Mu Ruicheng had no choice but to drink it. The taste of the soup was indeed not good, and the taste of the medicinal materials was a bit strong. After he took a sip, he was unwilling to drink it again, "This soup tastes terrible."
Du Ruirui also put down her spoon. The taste of this soup was even worse than the soup she usually made with medicinal herbs.
"Bitter medicine, you are not allowed to stop, you have to drink it." Cai Xiufen took a sip and frowned immediately, but thinking of what the cook said, she just picked up the bowl, took a deep breath, and finished the soup.
Nian Mu sat opposite them. Seeing their painful expressions, Nian Mu glanced at Mu Shaoling again.
When he drank the soup, he only frowned slightly.
Sure enough, not everyone can bear the bitterness.
Mr. Mu watched Mr. Mu Ruicheng and his wife being forced to drink soup by Cai Xiufen, and asked the butler to serve preserved fruit.
It's not for Cai Xiufen, but for Muricheng and his wife. After all, they don't need to drink such soup. At this moment, it's just an accident.
After Cai Xiufen drank the soup, she quickly picked up a preserved fruit and stuffed it into her mouth. After the sweetness of the preserved fruit melted into her mouth and drove away the bitter taste, she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "This soup is too bitter."
Murui Cheng also took a piece of preserved fruit and handed it to Du Ruirui, then he took one and stuffed it into his mouth, asking the old man, "Grandpa, why did you let the good doctor prescribe such a bitter medicine."
"The medicine is bitter, and this medicine was prescribed by a good doctor. It has nothing to do with me." Mr. Mu said, looking at Nian Mu and said: "Nian girl, just rest in the old house tonight. I have asked you to
The nanny has tidied up the bedroom for you."
"Old man, if you can't help it, I'd better go back and rest." Nian Mu immediately refused. If she agreed to stay and rest, Cai Xiufen's eyes would like to pierce her body.
