It's good to exchange marriages. My sister eats coarse food while I wear gold and silver.

From the time when Lady Wanning Hou left to the time when Yuan Buwei came back, Lu Sui had been immersed in his thoughts without allowing anyone to disturb him.

In his mind, he repeatedly recalled every moment he spent with Yuan Buwei.

Every word she said, everything she did, every expression, every move.

The more he thought about it, the more his heart ached.

The moment he saw her approaching him, Lu Sui wanted to tell her all the questions in his mind.

"Lu Sui?"

Yuan Buwei looked at Lu Sui with red eyes in confusion: "What's wrong? I'm only going out for half a day, why do you look so resentful?"

"No, I'm just thinking about something."

Lu Sui snorted and glanced at the bag in Yuan Buwei's hand: "How do you know I want to eat sugar-roasted chestnuts?"

Those questions I want to ask her, even if I ask them in front of her, before I gain her full trust and commitment, she will definitely take a self-protective attitude and say something ambiguous or something that pleases herself.

Just don't ask anything.

Treat her as you really are.

Lu Sui believed that sooner or later, he would enter Yuan Buwei's heart.

"I guess we have a mutual understanding?" Yuan Buwei sat on the edge of the bed and just as she took out a roasted chestnut, Lu Sui took it away. "What are you doing?"

"Didn't you ask me to exercise my hands more? Then I'll do the work like peeling chestnuts." Lu Sui quickly peeled a whole chestnut and handed it to Yuan Buwei, "Try it, is it sweet?"

"I bought it for you to eat."

"Yes, you bought it for me, so I naturally have the right to share it. Eat it quickly."

Yuan Buwei frowned, always feeling that Lu Sui was a little different, but couldn't put her finger on it.

"Avi, what are you looking at me for? Is there something on my face?"

Yuan Buwei shook her head and stuffed the chestnut into her mouth. The chestnut was very sweet and sticky. She took out another one, but it was snatched away by Lu Sui again: "Such a big bag of chestnuts is just right for me to exercise my hands. Don't you dare snatch it from me."

"Okay, if you want to peel it, I'll buy it for you every day?"

"It's not good to eat too many chestnuts, but you can buy some melon seeds or something..."

Yuan Buwei was amused by Lu Sui's serious look: "While you are peeling chestnuts, let me tell you something?"

"You said."

Yuan Buwei thought for a while and told him about her encounter with Yuan Jinse and the plan she had discussed with Lu Bing.

"No wonder Lu Bing looked listless every time I went home. Sometimes when I asked him about his recent homework, he would answer irrelevant questions. I thought he was dissatisfied with me and just gave me a perfunctory answer. I didn't expect..." Lu Sui clenched his fists and made a crackling sound, "Damn Jiang family."

"Sometimes, misunderstandings arise like this. And you know what? Lu Bing and Lu Han actually admire you very much, but they think you are always cold, so they dare not get close to you for fear of being disgusted by you."

"I'm cold?"

Yuan Buwei nodded: "Yes, maybe you have killed too many enemies, and when you are serious, you look quite fierce."

"Then should I smile more often in the future?" Lu Sui thought for a moment, forced a smile, and revealed eight teeth.

Yuan Buwei shook her head and said, "It's a bit creepy."

"Forget it. I'll have plenty of time to spend with them when I recover. Thinking about it now will only cause more trouble."

"Lu Sui, why do I feel like something is wrong with you today?" Yuan Buwei stroked her chin and looked Lu Sui up and down for several times, "Why did your temper suddenly become better? You don't argue with me anymore?"

"No, I've always been like this. Awei, is this the first day you met me?" Lu Sui blinked and put ten peeled chestnuts into Yuan Buwei's hands. "Awei, eat more. I'll peel more for you."

"These are enough for me. You can eat the rest yourself. What would you like for dinner?"

Lu Sui often heard these words.

But this time.

He asked, "Awei, what do you want to eat?"

"I?"

"Well, you always ask me what I want to eat, and you always eat the same thing as me. I also want to try your favorite food."

“I like…”

"You don't have to worry that I don't like it. As long as you like to eat it, I will definitely like it." Lu Sui said casually.

Yuan Buwei laughed immediately and said, "Lu Sui, you said that?"

"That's what I said."

"Okay, then make my favorite dinner for today."

"Okay! I'll wait."

Lu Sui thought that he had eaten raw meat and chewed tree bark on the battlefield, and he could eat any food, no matter how difficult it was to swallow.

He just didn't believe that he couldn't eat the food that Avi liked.

"A-Avi...what is this?"

But when the food was placed in front of him, Lu Sui's mouth twitched. He lowered his head and took a sip. A medicinal smell rushed straight to his head.

“I like to suffer.”

"What?" Lu Sui was shocked. "Who likes to suffer?"

"Then you don't understand. Bitterness enters the heart, and the heart governs the blood vessels. Bitterness can clear away heat, dryness, soothe the liver, and purge fire. So throughout the year, from the beginning of summer to late autumn, I use bitter foods. But there aren't many bitter foods, so I make them into medicinal foods." Yuan Buwei put a mouthful of medicinal food into her mouth. "And this medicinal food is more bitter than the medicinal foods and soups you've eaten before. It's not too late for you to back out now."

"No, I've already promised you. I'll eat it no matter how bitter it is." Lu Sui took a deep breath. Although he could move his hands, he couldn't sit up yet and had to rely on others to feed him. "Give me a bite. I'll taste it first."

"it is good."

Yuan Buwei deliberately scooped a little bit and put it into Lu Sui's mouth.

The moment Lu Sui ate it, his facial features couldn't help but wrinkle.

This is too bitter.

Is this food for humans?

"It doesn't taste good, does it?" Yuan Buwei smiled and continued to put the medicinal food into her mouth.

Lu Sui watched Yuan Buwei put the medicinal food into her mouth one mouthful after another, looking intoxicated. He didn't understand at all: "Besides this, what else do you like?"

"Hmm... I don't think so. For me, food is enough as long as it can fill my stomach. You should understand this very well, right?"

Lu Sui nodded: "Indeed, there is sometimes a shortage of food on the battlefield, and one would want to break a cake into ten pieces to eat. But Medicine King Valley is not so poor that it won't even let you eat enough food, right?"

"Master would love for me to have two bowls of rice at a time, but unfortunately I am born like this and have no interest in eating."

Yuan Buwei lowered her head and stirred the medicinal food in the bowl.

"That's okay. When I get better, I'll take you to eat all kinds of delicious food. Every time I go back to Kyoto, I'll go to the alleys with Li Yan to collect all kinds of snacks, such as Grandma Zhou's wonton, Uncle Ma's stove-baked bread, and Fudinglou's braised pork elbow. When I think of the taste now, I drool." Lu Sui's saliva was about to flow out when he thought of these delicious foods, but he saw that the medicinal food was all gone. "Awei, why didn't you leave some for me?"
