Chapter 102 The Clever Wen Yantong Finally Discovered Her Special Buff (1)
The doctor sighed, "We don't know at all! We have been waiting since we came here in the morning. This was because the Little Marquis was sleeping. However, after waking up, he still did not allow us to go in. The Little Marquis says since a doctor had already looked at his wounds last night, and there is no need to check it again..."
Wen Yantong stated, "That’s not good."
The doctor continued, "Moreover, the Little Marquis has not eaten because of his pain. How can his body withstand it?"
After hearing this, Wen Yantong thoughtfully walked to the guard by the door and asked, "Did the kitchen send food over?"
The guard replied, "This subordinate has tried three times, but the Little Marquis won't eat it."
Wen Yantong rubbed her stomach. She was also hungry, so she decided to go to the kitchen and cook herself a meal.
Wen Yantong’s family was poor since her childhood. When she was a child, she always helped the family while still studying in school. Sometimes when her parents went out to do farming work, she would cook everyone’s meal and wait for her family to come back to eat. Later, when she grew up and lived alone, Wen Yantong would often cook for herself, so she had a little confidence in her craftsmanship.
But this confidence did not extend to making fine delicacies. After all, there were very few seasonings in ancient times, so it's already a feat to be able to make something palatable.
Unexpectedly, there were all kinds of seasonings in the kitchen, some she had never heard of. The monks in Nian'an Temple were all detained by the guards, so there was no one in the kitchen. Therefore Wen Yantong could only light a fire to cook by herself.
She decided to make a simple porridge. After all, Chi Jingxi was injured now and couldn't eat too greasy food. Without any meat in the kitchen, Wen Yantong could only settle for a vegetarian porridge.
She added corn kernels and diced carrots to porridge, as well as some thinly chopped green vegetables. Wen Yantong then heated some scallion sauce in a pan with some hot oil, added in some chopped cabbage, and then brought the finished breakfast to Chi Jingxi.
With Chi Jingxi’s permission, the guards allowed Wen Yangtong to enter his room.
The room was filled with a strong smell of medicine. When Wen Yantong entered, Chi Jingxi was removing the gauze by himself.
She yelped, hurriedly put the food on the table, and scurried over quickly. "What are you doing! The gauze was just fine, why are you taking it off?!"
Chi Jingxi was stunned by the accusation in her words. He continued to unwrap the bandage as he slowly replied, "...the gauze is tied too thickly making it inconvenient to move."
Wen Yantong replied, "Even so, you can't take it apart! Just sit or lie down if it's inconvenient to move! There’s always a reason why the doctor did them like that!"
She went up and tapped Chi Jingxi's hand. "Don't move, I'll wrap it back up."
"Two less layers." Chi Jingxi said.
"No, not even one layer less!" Wen Yantong resolutely rewrapped the gauze he had removed just now. "The medicine was just applied, so it must be bound more thicker. It’ll be worth it when your wound heals in a few days."
Chi Jingxi tried to stop her with his left hand but Wen Yantong brushed his hand away. "You're already this big, but you're still so self-willed! You don't want to eat, and you won't let the doctor see you, what do you think you're doing?"
Chi Jingxi fell silent for a while. He then suddenly flicked her on the forehead when Wen Yantong just finished tying the gauze. She rubbed her forehead and took two steps back. "Why did you hit me? I’m doing this for your own good."
"I’ve already held back. This is your punishment." Chi Jingxi snorted softly.
"Little Marquis, you are a patient now. You need to cooperate with the doctor and take a good rest." Wen Yantong persuaded earnestly. She then ran to put the food on the table beside the bed, "When I was lame, I was as obedient as I could be. I will eat whatever the doctor tells me to eat, and whatever the doctor won’t let me eat..."
"I didn’t see you avoid any food." Chi Jingxi interrupted.
"The doctor didn't say that I had to avoid any kinds of foods." Wen Yantong replied, "Here, have a quick bite."
She was afraid that Chi Jingxi would not be enough to eat, so she filled a big bowl for the boss. Wen Yantong also prepared a big bowl for herself, along with spoons and chopsticks.
Chi Jingxi lowered his eyes and saw that the porridge was dark and murky, it looked completely different from the porridge he had eaten in the past. He already had no appetite at all and this ugly porridge made him even more resistant, "I’m not eating it."
Wen Yantong moved a stool and sat beside him. "If you don't eat, you will definitely regret it later."
Chi Jingxi casually asked, "Why?"
"This porridge is unique and there are only two bowls in this world." Wen Yantong stirred the porridge and said, "Don't look at its color, sauce was added to it. It’s much tastier than what you usually eat."
Chi Jingxi tilted his head slightly, waiting for her next sentence.
"I made this myself. If it wasn't for the sake of the Little Marquis's injury, I wouldn't have taken out my family's secret craftsmanship." Wen Yantong continued, "My father used to be a very famous cook."
Chi Jingxi pondered for a moment, "Aren’t your family merchants?"
Wen Yantong paused for a moment, "Before that, he was a cook."
"If he was so famous, then why did he stop?"
"That's because... my father thought the cooking fumes were too much and would affect the skin, so he changed to doing business." Wen Yantong lied without batting an eye. She quickly changed the subject, "Eat while it's hot, it’s not as good when it’s cold."
Chi Jingxi's eyes were full of confusion, but nonetheless he took the spoon with his left hand and took a sip.
Wen Yantong stared at him expectantly, "How is it?"
This kind of plot of ‘cooking for the male lead’ often appeared in romance novels. And they would then taste it and then exclaim: Ah! Delicious! How did this woman make such a divine meal?
Although Chi Jingxi wasn’t the male protagonist, he could also marvel: How does this man have such skillful hands!
Then he’ll fall in love with her cooking skills, keep her by his side to always cook for him, etc etc...
Simply put, many stories start with a bowl of food.
After Chi Jingxi tasted it, he looked up at her. "...A bit too salty."
