Chapter 75: Coaxing and feeding
The next day, after Wen Wan got up, she smelled the sweet aroma of food.
There were clean clothes beside the bed. After changing them, she went to the kitchen.
The mute woman was busy at the stove, cooking Wen Wan's favorite mushroom and lean meat porridge.
"This authentic smell, I know it's you as soon as I smell it."
Wen Wan stood at the door with a smile on her face.
The mute woman sucked on her apron, wiped her hands, took a boiled egg, walked to the door and stuffed it into Wen Wan's palm.
One is mute and the other is blind, so communication depends entirely on feeling.
Wen Wan peeled off the egg shell, ate the egg white, and handed over the yolk.
She didn't eat egg yolks, and the mute woman was used to it. After shaking her head and laughing, she didn't dislike it, so she took it and ate the egg yolks.
After a while, Shen Zhou came in with a bucket. With him, Wen Wan and the mute woman could finally communicate normally.
Shen Zhou: "Early this morning, Brother Achai asked me to pick up the mute woman. Brother Achai said that he would ask the mute woman to make delicious food for you for a few days."
Wen Wan chuckled, "Is this a blessing in disguise for me?"
After a pause, she asked again: "By the way, where are the Achai people?"
Before Shen Zhou could answer, footsteps sounded behind her.
Shen Yu handed the fish in his hand to Shen Zhou and said warmly: "I went to buy crucian carp and make soup for you later."
Wen Wan turned around following the voice and raised her hand, and Shen Yu took hers.
The mute woman filled a bowl of porridge and handed it over. Shen Yu held Wen Wan in one hand and held the porridge in the other.
Return to the room.
Wen Wan took a bite of the porridge he fed and couldn't help but smile.
"Hey, I didn't expect it. I also live a happy life where I can put out my hands for clothes and open my mouth for food."
"You are heartless." Shen Yu blew on the porridge and fed it to her mouth, "I was frightened yesterday, but I can jump around today."
Wen Wan curled her lips, "What do you want me to do? Cry, make trouble, and hang myself? It's not my fault, why should I be depressed?"
Shen Yu was startled and looked at her with a hint of approval in his eyes.
"You're right. Give me a bite, come on, ah..."
Wen Wan obediently opened her mouth and let him feed her, "It's such a pity that I can't see with my eyes. I used to dream of being served by a handsome boy, but now I have a handsome boy, but I can't even see your cute expression!"
cute?
Shen Yu twitched the corner of his mouth.
Wen Wan tugged on his sleeve, "Achai, to be honest, if I hadn't been blind, would I have enjoyed the treatment of being coaxed to eat by you?"
"Heh," Shen Yu's voice was very calm, "What do you think?"
It's definitely impossible.
Besides, he is a straight man, how can he let her see his soft-spoken and coaxing side? Doesn't he have no face?
Wen Wan: "By the way, who were the people running wild in the yard yesterday?"
Shen Yuyuan had no intention of hiding this matter from her.
"Have you ever heard of the Wei family?" Shen Yu asked.
Nodding gently.
Shen Yu said slowly: "The Wei family is a century-old family, and it is also the natal family of the current Queen Mother. Yesterday, Wei Changjia, the commander of Fengwei, came."
Wen Wan blinked her eyes and tried her best to recall the relationship between these people.
She used to live in the back house of the General's Mansion. Although she was in the Imperial Capital, she lived a life in which she could not hear what was going on outside the window. She knew very little about the affairs of these important people.
Shen Yu: "The elder brother of the Queen Mother's mother is the current Prime Minister, and Wei Changjia is the only son of Prime Minister Wei." Wen Wan lamented, "My aunt is the Queen Mother, my father is the Prime Minister, and I am still the commander of Feng Wei. No wonder Wei Changjia is so domineering and complete in everything he does. Don’t talk about the king’s laws.”
Shen Yu hummed, "He is here to hunt down the envoy Chen, who said he poisoned a maid in the palace."
"Dr. Chen killed someone?" Wen Wan shook her head, "Isn't it possible? I think he wanted to incriminate himself. I don't believe it if he says he killed someone. It's more likely that he might have broken into a big shot's secret and be silenced. .”
Hearing this, Shen Yu looked at Wen Wan in surprise.
"You...you are very smart."
Wen Wan waved her hand, "I just read a lot of stories in the storybook. It's not all written like this in Gong Dou's storybook."
In palace dramas, the profession of imperial physician is extremely important. You can kill people if you advance, and save people if you retreat. Whoever wants to rise to the top must have a reliable ally as an imperial physician.
"By the way," Wen Wan asked, "Doctor Chen is actually an imperial physician. How do you invite someone to a border town for a doctor of this level?"
"..." Shen Yu coughed dryly and said calmly: "As I said last time, my father has some old friends with Chen Yuanshi. He came here to escape, maybe to ask me to help him find a way out of confinement. , I didn’t expect that I drowned before I even spoke to me.”
Cause and effect are connected, this reason is reasonable.
Wen Wan had no doubts, but lamented that Chief Chen could not wait until he was released from confinement alive.

"Since Wei Changjia has such a profound identity and background, let's not provoke him anymore."
Wen Wan is not a fool, she is so passionate that she can get justice with little people like them.
She solemnly said to Shen Yu: "Achai, promise me not to take revenge, okay?"
Shen Yu said nothing.
Wen Wan advised again: "Although people like Wei Changjia are social trash, death is not a pity. But when people are under the roof, we cannot act on impulse."
"I'm not saying let this matter go. Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi. We can wait for an opportunity. If there is a chance to deal with him while protecting ourselves, then we will take action again."

Impulse is the devil, if you can't beat it, you have to endure it.
Patience is the price paid for maturity and reason.
Wen Wan didn't hear his response and said anxiously: "Achai? Do you agree or not?"
Shen Yu's face was dark, and he stepped forward to hold her hand, his tone a little pitiful.
"I listen to you."
Wen Wan breathed a sigh of relief.
*
The atmosphere in the border town has been tense these past two days.
The soldiers from the imperial capital arrested thieves in the streets and alleys, causing panic among the people in the border towns.
Fengwei's men failed to find Wei Changjia, so they had no choice but to shamelessly go to Shen Yu for help.
Shen Yu took a nap in the study and let Feng Wei's people stand outside the door for two hours before letting them in.
When Deputy Commander Feng Wei saw Shen Yu kneeling down on one knee, he clasped his fists and said, "General Shen, please send someone to help us find Commander Wei."
Shen Yu yawned boredly, raised his eyebrows and asked: "Commander Wei? Which Commander Wei? Wei Changjia? When did he come to the border town, why didn't anyone tell me?"
When Deputy Commander Feng Wei heard this, his heart skipped a beat, knowing that he might not be able to catch anyone this time.
He braced himself and replied, "General, we arrived at the border town three days ago under the orders of the Queen Mother. We were doing things confidentially and to avoid leaks, so we didn't come to contact the general."
Move out the Queen Mother, the general can't say anything else.
Unexpectedly, Shen Yu snorted coldly and smiled sarcastically.
"Oh. Since things are confidential, then if you come to me now, aren't you violating the Queen Mother's will?"
Shen Yu used his words to push him back without giving him any face.
