Flowers in full bloom

Chapter 210 Flower Bud Comfort

Originally, Qingzao and Qingsheng thought Rong Jin wanted to read a book, but after reciting it, Rong Jin leaned on the small couch alone, not reading or talking, and it had been more than half an hour, just staring out the window. Qingzao and Qingsheng felt a little uneasy, and kept thinking about whether they had done something wrong.

"Brother, are you awake? How do you feel? Is it painful?" Zhenzhu saw Rong Jin lying on the couch and asked with concern. Rong Jin moved, sat up slightly, and smiled, "Much better, it doesn't hurt much anymore, but I can't use my right leg at all. Sit down, Hua sister, you sit down too. Have you been here at noon?"

Seeing Zhenzhu and Hualei, Rong Jin smiled slightly with his pale face, and took a pillow with his left hand and put it behind him to steady his body. Hualei followed Zhenzhu and sat opposite the small couch, and looked at Rong Jin's face carefully. He was still a little pale, because his body had been stretched, his face was a little thin, and at this time, he seemed to be trying hard to stay energetic.

"Have you taken your medicine at noon? Don't you have much appetite? Is there anything you want to eat?" Hua Lei asked with concern, seeing that Rong Jin still looked listless.

"I've taken medicine, but I still have a low fever, so I don't have much appetite and don't want to eat anything. I will be fine in a day or two." Rong Jin replied.

Hua Lei nodded and comforted, "There's a saying that it takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone. You have to take good care of yourself and don't be stubborn. Eat more when you should eat, sleep well when you should sleep, and take good care of your spirit. You've been too thin recently." What Hua Lei said was just a normal sentence that she would say when visiting a patient in her previous life, but it made Rong Jin's pale face turn slightly red, and he lowered his head and said "hmm".

Hua Lei didn't notice at all, and continued, "Recently, there are a batch of native chickens on my farm. They are two or three pounds big and very well raised. Do you want to eat chicken? I'll ask Uncle Fu to catch a few and make soup for you. Do you want it? Put some fresh mushrooms in it. It tastes very good and is good for your health. By the way, the fish on my farm can be eaten soon. Do you want to eat fish? Crucian carp and tofu soup is also good."

Hualei thought about her past life. Many sick people ate chicken soup and fish soup to nourish their bodies, especially pregnant women. They would have a whole chicken stewed in soup every week to nourish their bodies, or some crucian carp soup. The milky white fish soup tasted very good.

Rong Jin looked at Hua Lei's concerned expression and was delighted, so he nodded and said, "Okay, wait two or three days. When I recover, my appetite should be better, and then we can have chicken soup and fish soup."

Hualei thought about it and agreed. After two or three days, her appetite would be restored. She nodded and said, "Okay, I'll ask Uncle Fu to catch some chickens and fish in two or three days. Also, I've started making flower cakes at Baihua Manor. Do you want to try some? Aunt Zhao's baking has been getting better and better recently. She can also make egg yolk cakes. If you want to try some, I can ask Aunt Zhao to bake some and send them to you."

Before Rong Jin could speak, Zhenzhu beside him spoke up, "Yes, yes, Sister Hua, I like them all, so just ask Uncle Fu to send some over. I like these two snacks the most. By the way, Rong Jue likes them too." Zhenzhu did not forget the foodie Rong Jue.

Rong Jin glared at Zhenzhu with some resentment. Why does she always interrupt others?

"Okay, then I'll send a message to Aunt Zhao at Baihua Manor and ask her to bake some tomorrow morning and have someone send it over then." Hua Lei nodded in agreement.

The next morning, freshly baked flower cakes and egg yolk pastries from Baihua Manor were delivered to Rong Jin's Qixia Courtyard. Two days later, on the third and fourth days, native chickens and live fish from Yuanying Manor were stewed into soup and served on Rong Jin's table.

It is said that Rong Jin's appetite is getting better day by day, and he drinks a big bowl of chicken soup or fish soup every day. And every afternoon, after Zhenzhu finishes her girls' school, she goes to Qixiayuan to eat and drink.

Hualei would also follow Zhenzhu to Qixiayuan to visit Rong Jin. They would sit and chat for a while, and then go back to Qihuayuan to rest. However, she had never been to Qixiayuan alone.

Although Rong Jin's injury did not hurt his bones, it was still quite serious, and Doctor Xu went to Qixia Hospital every day. In this way, half a month later, Rong Jin could slowly walk a few steps by himself, but he could not walk more.

He was bored in Qixia Courtyard every day. Although Madam Pei, Madam Han, Zhenzhu and Hualei came to see him from time to time, and Qingzao and Qingsheng were with him all the time, he still felt a little discouraged, and his mood became lower and lower day by day.

Since he started attending the clan school when he was five or six years old, he has been in and out every day, very busy. Rong Jin has never been stuck in Qixia Courtyard for so long. Looking at this situation, he may not be able to return to the Imperial College for classes in another half a month. Rong Jin is a little anxious. He has fallen behind in his studies, and he probably won't be able to ride a horse for three months.

What should I do? My riding and archery skills were not outstanding to begin with. If I delay like this, won't I be at the bottom? Although Mrs. Pei and Mrs. Han persuaded Rong Jin to relax almost every day, Rong Jin became more and more anxious day by day, and he was sulking in Qixia Courtyard.

That day, after Hualei finished school, she went directly to Yuanying Manor. When she came back, she went directly to Qixia Courtyard. Zhenzhu was sitting in the courtyard of Qixia Courtyard chatting with Rong Jin. Seeing Hualei carrying a bamboo basket into the courtyard, she asked, "Sister Hua, what delicious food did you bring back?"

Hualei put the bamboo basket at Rongjin's feet. The bamboo basket was covered with a piece of cloth and was slightly twisting. Hualei looked at Rongjin and smiled, "This is for you. Take a look. Do you like it?"

Rong Jin looked at the bamboo basket with a gloomy expression, and still gave Hua Lei face, he reached out and lifted the white cloth on the bamboo basket. A yellow-brown puppy was curled up in the bamboo basket, about one or two months old, with a chubby body and round eyes.

As the white cloth was unveiled, it slightly moved its chubby body and flapped its front legs in an attempt to climb out of the bamboo basket. Unfortunately, its legs were too short and it failed. It rolled back under the bamboo basket, looking very adorable.

Rong Jin was startled, then he was delighted, and carefully lifted the puppy with his left hand and put it on his knees. The puppy should have just been weaned, less than two months old, and was quite fat, so its movements were not particularly agile. At this time, it lay on Rong Jin's knees, sniffing around, looking silly.

"Hey, Sister Hua, where did you find this puppy? It's so cute." Zhenzhu happily reached out and stroked the dog's head.
