Chapter 220 Why don't you do me a favor and spend a month with me?
"Yes, master." After Liu Gu and the other two finished speaking, they hurriedly took the clothes of the two young masters and followed Shen Ruolan to the washroom.
In the Shen family lobby, after everyone else left, Madam Shen called her eldest son to her room and asked him, "Qian'er, why do I feel like Ruolan is very repulsive to us? Did your grandfather force her to come to Medicine King Valley?"
Otherwise, she couldn't understand why Shen Ruolan was so resistant to them. Although she seemed to be doing well on the surface, she could feel that she really didn't like interacting with them.
Shen Ziqian was silent for a long time after hearing what his mother said, and then he told his mother the truth: "Mom, she wasn't like this before, but after some accidents happened on the road, her attitude towards us gradually became distant."
In fact, Shen Ruolan didn't say anything, but Shen Ziqian knew in his heart that she must be holding a grudge against him because of what happened that day when Xiao Anhe fell into the river.
But the situation was urgent and his sister had also fallen into the river. He couldn't be omnipotent, so he could only choose to save his sister first.
Mrs. Shen listened to her son's words. She looked at him and asked, "What happened to you on the road?"
Shen Ziqian told his mother everything that happened on that day when it rained heavily. After he finished speaking, he said to his mother: "Mom, what happened that day was indeed because I didn't take good care of Xiao Anhe, which led to her almost having an accident. It's normal for her to feel resentful."
After hearing what her son said, Mrs. Shen sighed and said, "You are all right. The ones who are wrong are those damned men in black. Why didn't they even let such a young child go?"
After she finished speaking, she looked at her son and said, "Forget it, it has already happened. Wait for your grandfather to come back and let him compensate her. Let's just let nature take its course."
As a mother, she could understand Shen Ruolan's feelings, but she had already lost a daughter. If she lost another one, she would go crazy.
Therefore, she felt that there was nothing wrong with her son saving his daughter first. After all, everyone is selfish.
As for Shen Ruolan's attitude towards their Shen family, it's up to her. If they can get along well, they can get along well. If they can't get along, they can just stop disturbing each other in the future.
Shen Ziqian nodded to his mother and replied, "That's right, mother."
Madam Shen looked at her son and said, "You've worked hard these days, go down and have a rest."
"Yes, I'll take my leave." After Shen Ziqian finished speaking, he turned around and left his mother's yard.
Two hours later, to entertain Shen Ruolan, Mrs. Shen asked the kitchen to prepare many of Medicine King Valley's specialties. During the meal, she kept helping her pick up food so that she could eat more.
In fact, Mrs. Shen liked this niece who looked like her daughter at first sight. However, apart from Shen Ruolan politely smiling and saying thank you, there was no other communication between them, which made her feel helpless.
Shen Ruolan finished her dinner with her constant thank you. She returned to her guest room, rubbed her stiff face and said, "It's still more comfortable to live in our mountains."
Although everyone was very enthusiastic, she still didn't like such scenes very much. It was tiring to deal with problems of dozens of people alone.
Aunt Liu smiled and replied to Shen Ruolan: "That's right. Although the conditions in our mountain area are a bit simple, there are not so many rules and regulations. Living here should be more comfortable."
Shi Gu knew that her master didn't like such occasions very much, so she comforted her, "Master, please be patient. Once old Divine Doctor Shen arrives, we will be able to leave soon."
Shen Ruolan nodded to Shi Gu and said, "Well, now I just hope that grandpa and the others can come back soon."
Suddenly Shen Feier called out from outside the door: "Sister Lan, are you asleep?"
When Shen Ruolan heard Shen Feier's voice, she hesitated for a moment and replied, "Not yet."
After saying that, she came to the door, opened it and asked Shen Fei'er, "Fei'er, what can I do for you?"
Shen Feier handed her the basket and said, "Sister Lan, these are the Lu oranges I had someone pick just now. They are so sweet. I'll give some to you to try."
Shen Ruolan took the basket, looked at the big, golden loquats inside, and said to Shen Feier, "Feier, thank you. I like these loquats very much."
The Lu orange that Shen Feier mentioned is the loquat that she loved to eat every April in her previous life.
Shen Feier said to Shen Ruolan, "Sister Lan, if you like, feel free to eat more. I'll pick some for you tomorrow."
Shen Feier felt a little guilty towards Shen Ruolan. In fact, she just fell by the river that day, and she could climb up by holding on to the branches by the river.
At worst, Liu Gu and the other person who was with her at the riverside would have helped to bring her up. However, because she was afraid, she called her brother to save her, which led to her brother's failure to save Xiao Anhe in time. This made her feel alienated from her brother and she would rather trust an outsider than communicate more with them.
Shen Ruolan smiled at Shen Feier and said, "These are enough. Sister Feier, there is no need to go through so much trouble."
"It's not a problem." After Shen Fei'er finished speaking, she stretched her head to look inside and asked Shen Ruolan, "Sister Lan, are Xiao Anhe and the others asleep?"
Shen Ruolan said: "They were tired from playing just now and fell asleep."
"Okay, I'll come and play with you guys tomorrow, and you should go to bed early." After Shen Feier said this, she left with her maid.
As Shen Feier left, Mu Jinxuan suddenly appeared out of nowhere. He reached into Shen Ruolan's basket and picked up a bunch of loquats. He said to Shen Ruolan, "As expected of you, you are the cousin of Medicine King Valley. This treatment is not something that ordinary people can have."
Lu oranges were very common in the State of Yan, but the only one in Yaowang Valley could really grow Lu oranges well and produce large, sweet fruits. Every year, many people wanted to pay a high price to buy Lu oranges from them, but Yaowang Valley refused to sell them to anyone on the grounds that they could be used as medicine.
Even if guests come, they can't eat it if it's not in season. Sometimes, even if the guests come, but they are not the right person, they will not easily give it to the guests.
Shen Ruolan looked at Mu Jinxuan who suddenly appeared and said to him, "Mr. Mu likes to eat, so take some more."
After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, she gave some of the loquats in the basket to Mu Jinxuan, then turned around and went into the house.
Mu Jinxuan quickly stopped her and said, "Miss Shen, look at how beautiful the moon is tonight. Why don't you do me a favor and accompany me to admire the moon?"
Shen Ruolan shook her head and refused, "Mr. Mu, if you need any help, I can help you, but moon-watching is not for me. You should find someone else."
After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, she broke free from Mu Jinxuan's hand and went into the house without looking back.
Shen Ruolan's meaning was very clear. He saved her life, and if he needed her help, she would help without hesitation. But forget about things like being under the moonlight and in front of flowers. She was not suitable for it and it was impossible.
