Chapter 195: Moistening the Lungs to Stop Coughing
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The servant girls guarding outside the door could not help but blush when they heard the commotion in the room. They unconsciously distanced themselves from it.
It was not until the wee hours of the morning that the noise died down.
Chu Tao was very observant and did not disturb them.
Until it was almost noon, she heard the movement from inside that she knocked on the door.
From inside came Su Yan’s hoarse and panicked voice. “Don’t come in yet.”
Chu Tao smiled but did not enter. Instead, she went to the kitchen to order a serving of soup to moisten their throats for lunch on that day.
In the room, Su Yan looked at Gu Ruoyun, who was dressed neatly and was reading a booklet. She complained, “Look at you. How am I going to face people in the future?”
Gu Ruoyun coaxed her with a good temper, “It’s all my fault. Why don’t I tell them not to talk nonsense?”
Su Yan quickly stopped him. If she were to let him tell others, she would be even more embarrassed.
She did not dare to let them see the marks on her body, so Su Yan could only put on her clothes with great difficulty.
She made a slight movement and let out a soft hiss. She felt as if her waist was about to break.
Gu Ruoyun quickly came over and helped her put on her clothes. He had a good attitude, but his hands were not honest.
After Su Yan had hit him countless times, she had finally put on her clothes.
The two of them finally came out.
Chu Tao was waiting at the door. She knew that Su Yan was sensitive and had already stopped smiling.
This made Su Yan feel a little better. Gu Ruoyun helped her to the side hall.
Gu Ruoyun wanted to carry her out, but she refused to do it no matter what.
Lunch had already been laid out on the dining table in the side hall.
Su Yan was hungry. She sat down and was about to start eating when Chu Tao stopped her.
Chu Tao scooped out a bowl of white pear soup and placed it in front of her. “Princess Consort, please have a bowl of soup first.”
Su Yan did not mind and took a sip, finding the soup was quite delicious.
She said, “This soup is quite delicious. You can serve it every day from now on.”
Chu Tao nodded, “This white pear soup is most nourishing for the lungs. It’s good for the throat.”
Su Yan spat out the mouthful of soup that she had just drunk. Fortunately, she had turned around in time. Otherwise, this table of dishes would have been in trouble.
She could not help but cough a few times.
Chu Tao hurriedly brought the white pear soup to her hand and said, “Quickly take a sip.”
Su Yan waved her hand and refused. Gu Ruoyun wisely handed her a glass of water and she took it.
After a while, she did not even look at the white pear soup.
Gu Ruoyun replied, “This white pear soup is very good. You can indeed have one serving every day.”
Su Yan glared at him and said, “I won’t drink it anymore.”
Gu Ruoyun replied with a stern face, “How can you do that? This soup is good for your throat.”
Su Yan said angrily, “If it weren’t for you, my throat would…”
Fortunately, her last bit of rationality made her swallow her words.
Chu Tao could not hold it in any longer and lowered her head to snicker.
Su Yan heard the movement behind her and continued to bury her head in her food, refusing to lift her head.
Gu Ruoyun looked at her earlobe, which had turned completely red. He smiled and added a radish to her, “This can also moisten the lungs.”
Su Yan was furious. She glared at him and gave him a yellow eel, “This will nourish the kidney and strengthen impotence. It’s the most suitable for you.”
Gu Ruoyun’s expression froze as he looked at the yellow eel on his plate. He was puzzled as to why such a thing had appeared.
Chu Tao went to the kitchen and instructed them to add some lung-nourishing soup. The chefs had learned about this from the servant girls who were on night duty so they could naturally guess what had happened. Therefore, dishes on that day were not only for nourishing the lungs but also for strengthening the Yang.
After Gu Ruoyun’s stiff body had relaxed, he frowned and asked, “How did you know that yellow eel can strengthen the Yang and kidney?”
The chefs also knew the dignity of a man, especially since this man was Guang Pingwang, so the ingredients they chose were all very obscure.
Su Yan’s hand paused. Could she say that she had specially learned some knowledge about this because she had felt that Gu Ruoyun’s body was weak before they got married?
Clearly, she could not.
