Chapter 37: Do you want me to feed you?

~7 min read 1,201 words

"Then I must go!" Lin Jiaojiao said firmly. She knew that the Pei Mansion's full-month banquet would be hidden with murderous intent and would be a trap, but in order to remove her household register from the Pei Mansion, she understood that she had to come forward to handle it. Moreover, Pei Aosong had also invited Lu Zhenting. As long as General Lu was by her side, there would be no danger.

Surely no one would dare to deal with her under General Lu's nose, and besides, Pei Aosong was a coward.

But Guo Shi asked her tentatively from the side, "Concubine, aren't you going to marry Lord Song? Why do you still have to go back to the Pei Mansion?"

"Ah?!" Lin Jiaojiao didn't expect Guo Shi to ask this, which reminded her, "That's right, I still have to inform the Pei Mansion about this!"

Lu Zhenting's face darkened, "Do you really want to marry Song Shijie?"

"If I had a choice, I could choose not to marry, but right now I have no other place to go," Lin Jiaojiao didn't dare to look directly into Lu Zhenting's eyes. She looked straight ahead and saw Lu Zhenting's pectoral muscles.

Because he didn't have to go out today, Lu Zhenting didn't wear silver armor, just daily casual clothes. The clothes clung to the General's body, and the muscle lines on his body were vaguely visible.

Lin Jiaojiao suddenly remembered Lu Zhenting's shirtless figure last night and only felt a heat in her nasal cavity. Seeing that a nosebleed was about to flow out, she hurriedly covered her nose, "You go eat breakfast first, I, I have something to deal with, I'll go see how Song Shijie's wounds are!"

After saying that, she hurried away covering her nose.

"Does Lin Guniang really care about Song Shijie that much?" Lu Zhenting looked at her back, unwilling but helpless.

"Oh, if this marriage happens, Lord Song will be her husband in the future. Which woman doesn't care about her husband?" Guo Shi hugged Pei Tiezhu and looked down at the quiet little dumpling in her arms, "Maybe he can give you a younger brother in the future."

Hearing that Lin Jiaojiao might have children with Song Shijie in the future, Lu Zhenting's face became even darker.

He entered the room and saw his mother walking step by step toward the dining table with the support of Jiang Mianmian and the House Physician Liu Zhong. He was overjoyed, and the gloom on his face was swept away, "Mother! You can walk on the ground!"

On Lin Jiaojiao's side, after she ran away from Lu Zhenting, she hurriedly took out a handkerchief to wipe her nosebleed. After the nosebleed stopped, she went to the room where Song Shijie was to re-examine his wounds, pour wine to disinfect, and then apply medicine powder.

"Your recovery ability is quite strong. The wounds have scabbed over, and you can have the stitches removed in a few days," Lin Jiaojiao said while bandaging Song Shijie's wounds, "but the wounds on your chest and arms are larger, and moving around easily pulls the wounds, so it is better to rest quietly."

It is strange to say that they are both men, and Song Shijie also has muscles, but I look at them and touch them every day (big fog), why don't I feel anything?

Not to mention nosebleeds, the nasal cavity is completely calm, and even the air in this room is chilly.

"How long will it take to heal?" Song Shijie asked.

"To have the wounds completely heal, it will take at least two weeks." When Lin Jiaojiao finished bandaging Song Shijie, a servant happened to bring in breakfast. She naturally picked up an egg, peeled it, and stuffed it into her mouth.

Song Shijie called her angrily, "Bring it here."

"Hmm?" Lin Jiaojiao pointed to the egg and shook her head, but she was a little choked, so she picked up the hot porridge and poured it down, which allowed her to swallow the egg, "Don't be so stingy, what's wrong with eating some of your breakfast?"

Saying that, she handed the meat bun to Song Shijie, and didn't forget to make a greasy sound to disgust him, "Lord Song, do you want me to feed you?"

Song Shijie was numbed by that sweet, cloying voice. He frowned, took it, and ate the meat bun with his head down. Thinking that he really had to marry her in the future, he wanted to die. He really didn't know how to live this life. Forget it, at worst, he would move to the Dali Temple to live.

After Lin Jiaojiao finished breakfast at Song Shijie's place, she hummed a light tune and went to Anshou Hall to treat Lu Mu.

In the blink of an eye, it was noon. After lunch, she began to massage Pei Tiezhu's deformed legs. Looking at Pei Tiezhu's legs that were curled inward, compared to when he was just born, Pei Tiezhu's legs looked much better now.

And the bumps on his head had disappeared a lot. Although his skin was still black, because the wet nurse's milk was good, his cheeks had a lot of meat. The more Lin Jiaojiao looked at him, the cuter she thought he was, but he had a pair of narrow phoenix eyes, which were somewhat similar to that annoying Pei Aosong.

The time spent in the General's Mansion was comfortable and free, and soon three days passed.

On the day of going to the Pei Mansion for the banquet, Lu Zhenting called a carriage for Lin Jiaojiao, the wet nurse, and the child. When he personally helped Lin Jiaojiao into the carriage, he touched Lin Jiaojiao's fingertips.

Lin Jiaojiao wanted to hold back that powerful hand, but her actions were like an electric shock, and she hurriedly withdrew her hand, smiling unnaturally.

Lu Zhenting was inevitably a little disappointed. When he got on the horse, he lowered his head and smelled the hand that had touched Lin Jiaojiao. This smell was different from ordinary women; it was not the scent of rouge, but a faint smell of herbal medicine.

That's right, she was busy massaging and treating his mother's waist and legs every day, and she also had to massage Pei Tiezhu's legs, and finally, she had to go to change Song Shijie's medicine. Her hands would inevitably be stained with the smell of herbal medicine. Although this smell smelled a bit bitter, Lu Zhenting liked this smell.

It only took three streets to get from General Lu's Mansion to the Pei Mansion. Lu Zhenting rode on the horse and saw the Pei Mansion hanging red lanterns from afar. Pei Aosong was busy welcoming guests at the door.

When they arrived at the entrance of the Pei Mansion, Lu Zhenting dismounted and helped Lin Jiaojiao out of the carriage. As soon as Pei Aosong saw Lin Jiaojiao, he immediately transferred the work of entertaining guests to Li Guanjia, then walked straight to Lin Jiaojiao, reached out to wrap his arms around her waist, his eyes full of joy, "Jiaojiao, you have returned after all." ===== CHAPTER 38 =====
