Chen Miaochun dashed all the way into the garden. Unable to vent her anger, she looked at the garden full of fresh flowers. Suddenly, she remembered that Chen Ruxia loved admiring flowers. If she destroyed these flowers, would Chen Ruxia be sad?
This thought grew like wild grass. Chen Miaochun slowly stretched out her hand...
"What are you doing?" A gentle voice of a young man rang out, startling Chen Miaochun and making her take a few steps back.
Shen Heqing had just delivered the cloth to Qiuqiu's exclusive warehouse and returned to the garden. Before he could take out the book in his arms, he saw a girl in pink acting furtively in the garden.
When the girl turned around and Shen Heqing saw her face clearly, he fell silent.
For the first time in his life, Shen Heqing realized that he was a shallow person who judged people by their appearance. He lowered his eyes and said as euphemistically as possible, "The pink is already so charming. You don't need such bright red accessories. How about changing one, miss?"
It was really hard to look good in pink with bright red!
"Why do you talk like a girl?" Chen Miaochun was used to arguing with people in the countryside. The former Marquis of Yong'an was a military general, and even the current Marquis of Yong'an was a rough - and - tumble person.
Chen Miaochun thought her elder brother Chen Linchun was the gentlest man. She didn't expect to meet an even gentler one today. She circled around Shen Heqing a few times as if she were looking at something rare.
During her days in the Marquis Mansion, Chen Miaochun had been spoiled to the extreme. Now she even reached out to tug at Shen Heqing's clothes.
Before Chen Miaochun realized that her behavior was offensive, Shen Heqing scolded, "What are you doing?"
Shen Heqing looked so imposing, just like the noble people Chen Miaochun had seen before. Frightened, Chen Miaochun trembled and subconsciously knelt down.
Seeing Chen Miaochun kneel down, Shen Heqing felt a bit headache. He recognized that her clothes and accessories were of the finest quality, so her status should not be low. He just wanted to ask a question, but he didn't expect this person to suddenly kneel down.
Qiuqiu was good friends with Shen Baozhu, and Shen Heqing also knew Chen Ruxia. Thinking that this woman might be a friend of Chen Ruxia, he asked, "Get up first. Do you know Chen Ruxia?"
Knowing that she had made a fool of herself, Chen Miaochun didn't want to mention Chen Linchun's name and make him lose face, so she nodded.
Chen Miaochun dared to throw tantrums in the mansion because her grandmother and father indulged her. Moreover, she thought the Marquis Mansion owed her.
But she was very afraid of Shen Heqing because Shen Heqing was just like the noble people in her memory.
Growing up in the countryside, the most important person Chen Miaochun had ever seen was the village head. Facing someone as noble as Shen Heqing, she instinctively felt scared.
Seeing that Chen Miaochun was still kneeling, Shen Heqing frowned and said, "Why don't you get up?"
Chen Miaochun said fearfully, "I... I'm weak in the legs. I can't get up."
...
Qiuqiu was very worried about Chen Ruxia's health. When she learned that Baozhu could save her elder sister, she couldn't wait to bring Baozhu to find Chen Ruxia.
Chen Ruxia was making clothes in the room. She was very focused, and the stitches of the clothes were very fine. It had taken her a lot of time.
The maid complained, "Miss! Why are you still making clothes? The clothes you made before were all thrown away by that country girl..."
"If you say it one more time, I'll ask mother to sell you!" Chen Ruxia slapped the clothes heavily on the table, and her face became even paler.
Chen Ruxia was in poor health. After arguing with Chen Miaochun for a while today, her chest began to feel stuffy. Now being angered by the maid, she almost couldn't catch her breath.
Seeing that she had caused a big problem, the maid quickly apologized and took out the medicine for Chen Ruxia to take.
When Shen Baozhu and Qiuqiu entered the room, they happened to see this scene.
Qiuqiu was startled, and Shen Baozhu finally knew how poor Chen Ruxia's health was.
After Chen Ruxia had recovered for a while, she asked, "Qiuqiu and Baozhu, why are you here?"
"Sister, were you angry with Qiuqiu just now?" Qiuqiu was on the verge of crying. She thought it was because she hadn't helped Sister Ruxia that Sister Ruxia had been in a bad mood and had fallen ill.
Qiuqiu hid behind Shen Baozhu, her voice timid, "Sister Miaochun was unhappy outside. I don't want her to be unhappy when she comes home either."
After taking the medicine, Chen Ruxia felt much better. She reached out and pulled the two children to her side, saying softly, "Qiuqiu did a great job. It was just that sister couldn't think it through today. Sister shouldn't have fought with Miaochun. She had a very hard time outside."
When Chen Miaochun returned to the Marquis Mansion, she didn't talk about her past, but Chen Ruxia could tell that she hadn't had a good life. Previously, whenever Chen Miaochun wanted something, Chen Ruxia would give it to her.
Chen Ruxia liked dressing up, and many of her clothes and accessories were designed by herself. When she heard that Chen Miaochun wanted the same ones, she would ask the embroiderer to make another one. If it was a unique item, Chen Ruxia would stay up all night to modify the size and send it to Chen Miaochun.
However, Chen Miaochun didn't like these things. She even cut up the clothes Chen Ruxia sent... Chen Linchun had told Chen Ruxia about this just yesterday. It was also because of this that when she got the cloth today, Chen Ruxia didn't give in to Chen Miaochun anymore.
[Chen Ruxia has a pure heart. She has no intention of fighting with Chen Miaochun. How did the two sisters end up like this?]
[It's a bit interesting.]
The Dragon King was lying on the couch, eating fruits and watching the show.
The Dragon King, who loved to stir up trouble, encouraged, [Little cutie, let Chen Miaochun and Chen Ruxia meet. I want to watch them quarrel.]
This made those who saw the subtitles a bit speechless.
Especially Lin Yu, who had just gone to get the healing potion: [Chen Ruxia is in poor health. She was even made to vomit blood by Chen Miaochun before. Instead of thinking about curing her, you just want to watch the show. Aren't you afraid something bad will happen?]
Reminded by Lin Yu, the Dragon King just remembered that Chen Ruxia had vomited blood: [Then just cure her.]
The Dragon King casually sent over some fruits for nourishing the body.
When the fruits reached Shen Baozhu's hands, she and Qiuqiu were listening to Chen Ruxia tell stories.
Actually, Qiuqiu had an elder brother with the same parents. Her brother had died of illness when she was one year old. Her mother was so grief - stricken that she had no energy to take care of Qiuqiu. It was Chen Ruxia who had raised Qiuqiu.
From the age of one to five, it was all Chen Ruxia taking care of Qiuqiu. It was not until Chen Ruxia's condition worsened a year ago that Qiuqiu moved back to her mother's yard.
Chen Ruxia liked reading travelogues. Whenever Qiuqiu couldn't fall asleep, she would tell stories, sharing the travelogues in the books with Qiuqiu.
As Qiuqiu's good friend, Shen Baozhu had also heard the stories a few times. When she and Qiuqiu took a nap, Chen Ruxia would sit by the bed, gently patting their backs while telling stories to lull them to sleep.
Because of this, whenever Shen Baozhu heard Chen Ruxia tell stories, she would start yawning and instinctively feel sleepy.
Noticing that there was an extra thing in her hand, Shen Baozhu subconsciously smelled it with her nose.
It was the sweet fragrance of fruit... Something delicious!
Seeing Shen Baozhu eating the fruit, the Dragon King thought she wanted more and sent five more.
The five fruits fell one by one from the air, hitting Shen Baozhu on the head and waking her up.
Covering her head, Shen Baozhu looked at the fruits blankly, "So many fruits?"
After learning that these were the nourishing fruits sent by the Dragon King for Chen Ruxia to replenish her body, Shen Baozhu picked up all the fruits and put them on the table, saying domineeringly, "Sister Ruxia, eat the fruits!"
Qiuqiu was stunned. Did Baozhu have a fruit in her hand just now?
Chen Ruxia didn't think much about it. She just thought that Shen Baozhu had brought them from outside.
The maid took the fruits down to wash them. Chen Ruxia reached out and pinched the little faces of Shen Baozhu and Qiuqiu, "Baozhu, why have you lost weight? Pinching your face is not as comfortable as before."
Shen Baozhu straightened her body, "Because Baozhu has grown taller! The original flesh has all turned into bones."
Chen Ruxia continued the conversation, "Wow, Baozhu is really amazing!"
Soon the fruits were served. Urged by Shen Baozhu, Chen Ruxia ate all five fruits. When she was eating the fifth fruit, a maid came in, "Miss, Miss Miaochun offended Young Master Shen in the garden and has been punished to kneel!"
