Chapter 2142 Tonic Soup
Nian Mu understood the medicine, and Mr. Mu was worried that she would not take it, so everything he planned 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 materials are prepared by a good doctor. After young people stay up late, taking this soup is good for their health." The housekeeper also helped.
He knew the old man’s plan.
The housekeeper has worked in this family for most of his life, and he has watched Mu Shaoling grow up, so his purpose is the same as that of the old man, and he hopes that Mu Shaoling can be good.
At least you don’t have to be so lonely in the future, with the woman he likes to be by your side.
The old man did this without any malice. After all, he could see that they were tempted by each other, but the movements were too slow, so the old man was a little anxious.
It’s not a bad thing to have outsiders pushing.
At least it is not a bad thing for Mu Shaoling.
Nian Mu looked at the soup in front of him, then looked at the old man again, and raised his eyebrows.
Mr. Mu met his suspicious eyes and said, "Drink quickly, can I harm you?"
"Old man, I just drank the medicinal tea an hour ago. Now I'm drinking this soup, I'm worried..." Nian Mu was worried about over-replenishing her head. She usually paid attention to her body and had good conditioning and did not need to take any tonics.
Moreover, after giving birth to Xiao Niannian, Asa treated her as a medicine jar and often asked her to take various medicines. Instead of treating her as a guinea pig, she helped her to regulate her body.
The minor problems I had in the past, and the physical problems I had when I was pregnant because I was too sad, and I had many problems, and I was all treated by Asa.
Her current physique is better than most.
"Don't worry, this soup and that tea's medicinal properties are not in conflict." Mr. Mu said with a smile, only when he talked to her, his tone was better.
Taotao grabbed Nianmu's sleeve and shook it, and said angrily: "Sister, great-grandfather has prepared it for you, just drink it."
Mu Shaoling, who was beside him, picked up the spoon and took a sip, frowned and said, "It really doesn't taste good."
Mr. Mu glared at him, "When did you see that medicine is sweet?"
"Great grandpa, the medicine made by my sister is sweet, like candy." Taotao raised his hand and replied.
Mr. Mu looked at his great-grandson kindly, "Of course, it's the medicine for children, it must be sweet, but the medicine for adults is a bit bitter, that's normal. Nian girl, drink it quickly, don't waste my heart."
The old man said this to this extent, and if Nian Mu didn't drink it, he would not give him face.
Picking up the spoon, she took a sip.
Indeed, the soup tastes the same as the color, and it has the taste of medicine. After savoring it, she felt that she had put a lot of medicinal materials, which were simple and could tell, but there were some better ones. I'm afraid it would take a look at the medicine residue to know what it was.
Although the soup was smelly of medicine, Nian Mu looked calm and drank it all under the old man's gaze.
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, it's all okay." Nian Mu said. Although she was not afraid of hardship, she was not easy to shirk the child's feelings, so she took the fruit and ate it.
Cai Xiufen was jealous when she watched from the side.
She heard from the cook that Mr. Mu bought a batch of precious medicinal materials. Although he didn't know it was your medicinal materials, the old man repeatedly told him to seal and dry it, because the medicinal value was very high.
Maybe, these medicinal herbs were 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 quite busy recently. Please bring three bowls." Cai Xiufen said. Although she has seen many precious medicinal herbs in the Mu family, she still doesn't want to suffer any losses.
The butler looked embarrassed, three bowls?
It was okay for Mu Ruicheng and Du Ruirui to drink it, but after all, they were husband and wife, but Cai Xiufen, if she drank the soup, she would probably have to make trouble tonight.
Seeing that the butler had no intention of serving her soup, Cai Xiufen asked with a stern face: "Why don't you go? Did you make two bowls of soup?"
"Go, bring it to her, just don't drink it. These soups are too nourishing and the children are not suitable for drinking." Mr. Mu said, Cai Xiufen was greedy and had to drink the flower tea, but now she still had to drink the soup.
He didn't intend to stop her, she suffered tonight.
After receiving the order, the housekeeper had to do it and bring out the remaining soup.
Mu Ruicheng didn't want to drink it at first, after all, this was the soup the old man was going to give Mu Shaoling. He didn't think it was anything. He was still young and it didn't matter if he was busy or tired at all.
He didn't think it was jealous and delicious to treat the old man's special arrangements, after all, the old man was not really biased.
Mu Shaoling is indeed much tired than him.
But Cai Xiufen insisted on Mu Ruicheng drinking it, "If you say you have to drink a bowl of soup with such a tonic, otherwise how can you be worthy of what the old man personally prepared?"
Mu Ruicheng had to bite the bullet and drink it. The soup tasted badly, and the medicinal herbs were a little volatile. He took a sip and was reluctant to drink it again, "This soup is so bad."
Du Ruirui also put down the spoon. The taste of this soup was even worse than the soup she usually soaked in her medicinal herbs.
"You are not allowed to stop the bitter medicine, you must drink it." Cai Xiufen took a sip and frowned, but when she thought of what the cook said, she forced herself to pick up the bowl, took a deep breath, and finished the soup.
Nian Mu sat opposite them, and saw their painful appearance, he looked at Mu Shaoling again.
When he was drinking the soup, he just frowned slightly.
Sure enough, not everyone can stand the bitterness.
Mr. Mu looked at the appearance of Mu Ruicheng and his wife being forced to drink soup by Cai Xiufen, and asked the butler to serve dried fruits.
It was not for Cai Xiufen to eat, but for Mu Ruicheng and his wife. After all, they didn’t need to drink such soup. At this moment, it was a pure accident.
After Cai Xiufen had drunk the soup, she quickly picked up a piece of dried fruit and stuffed it into her mouth. After waiting for the sweetness of dried fruit to melt into her mouth, she drove away the bitter taste, and she breathed a sigh of relief, "This soup is too bitter."
Mu Ruicheng also took a dried fruit and handed it to Du Ruirui, then took one and stuffed it into his mouth, asking the old man, "Grandpa, why did you ask the good doctor to prescribe such bitter medicine?"
"It's all bitter, and this prescription was prescribed by a good doctor, so it has nothing to do with me." Mr. Mu said, looking at Nian Mu and said, "Girl Nian, let's rest in the old house tonight. I have asked the nanny to clean up the bedroom for you."
"Old man, 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 expose her body.
