Xingnong, who was as thick-skinned as a city wall, was embarrassed.
Chu Tiankuo couldn't bear to see Xingnong feel uncomfortable, so he said, "Royal sister, just call me Junior Sister Xingnong. The enemy will be here soon, Junior Sister, please help me take Royal sister away."
Xing Nong nodded: "Okay!"
Chu Tiankuo said to Chu Zijun again: "Royal sister, you and Junior Sister should leave here first. If you have any questions, wait for me to answer them for you."
Chu Zijun also knew that girls were shy, so he nodded: "Okay!"
Chu Tiankuo said to Wei Feng: "You go and lead the Zhao army into the formation first, I will see them off."
Wei Feng had nothing to worry about after handing Chu Zijun over to Chu Tiankuo. He glanced at Chu Zijun, with two words written in his eyes: "wait for me", and then he left!
After Wei Feng left, Xing Nong and Chu Tiankuo looked at each other, and then Xing Nong grabbed Chu Zijun's hand: "Princess, I'll take you away first."
Before Chu Zijun could react, she felt the white world in front of her eyes flash and disappear. She seemed to have entered a huge storage room, and then the storage room disappeared. She came to a house full of various bonsai, and before she could see clearly what was planted, she appeared in a practice room!
Chu Zijun: "..."
What's going on? This scene changes faster than a dream!
Xing Nong explained, "Princess, this is my brother's training room. I'll take you to another room. You can stay here for a few days. Elder Tang lives downstairs. It's very safe here."
Chu Zijun had many questions to ask, but when she thought of what her brother had said, she knew that he didn't want her to bother his sweetheart, so she suppressed her doubts and nodded: "Thank you, Junior Sister."
Xingnong breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she called her junior sister this time!
She smiled and said, "You're welcome, Princess. It's my pleasure! Let's go!"
Then Xing Nong took her out.
Chu Tiankuo had already taken Xingnong to the house on the top of the mountain and arranged for Chu Zijun to live in that room. Xingnong only needed to take her there.
After introducing the room she lived in, Xing Nong said, "Princess, Mr. Tang is halfway up the mountain. I'll take you down!"
Chu Zijun nodded upon hearing this: "Okay!"
Master Tang is the emperor's younger brother's master, and he is someone that even the emperor needs to respect. She really needs to pay a visit to him.
Xingnong brought Chu Zijun to Mr. Tang and asked him to explain to her what had happened, and then she left.
Having not been home for several days, she said goodbye to the two of them and left.
~
When Xingnong returned home, it was almost noon and smoke could be seen from every household in the village.
The door to the yard was not closed, so Xingnong walked in directly and saw that the yard remained the same as when she left.
There were voices coming from the kitchen, and she walked in, only to see the King of Jin making a fire and Shen Ruoxi cooking.
Shen Ruoxi saw Xing Nong coming back and said happily: "Xing Nong, you have finished your retreat!"
The King of Jin was also very happy. He hadn't seen his daughter for several days. He also said, "Xingnong, did your retreat go well this time? Is there anything you don't understand? You can write it down and I will ask someone for you."
Xing Nong did not answer their questions, but looked at Shen Ruoxi and asked, “Didn’t mother go to the workshop to help today?”
Shen Ruoxi nodded and neatly put the dishes in the pot on the plate: "I just didn't go today. It's almost the end of the year, and there's not so much work in the workshop. I don't have to go there."
Besides, Xingnong was in seclusion, so there was no one to do the housework at home. Even if Brother Shen helped to fetch water and cook, she still had to wash her own clothes. Gu and she were embarrassed to let the owner of the Yingke Building help with all the housework, so she stayed at home to do the housework.
These days, Brother Shen helps the family fetch water, wash vegetables, and cook every day. He also helped Xing Nong set up the formation before. After getting along with him for a few days, Shen Ruoxi is no longer afraid of him!
Xing Nong nodded and looked at the King of Jin again.
She didn’t expect that this person would let Shen Ruoxi let down her defenses so quickly.
The King of Jin immediately said, "The food will be ready soon. Xingnong, have you eaten yet?"
"not yet."
Shen Ruoxi immediately said, "Then set the table. I still have to deliver food to mother and Xingqing. Brother Shen, you have been busy for a long time, so eat here too! Eat with Xingnong."
When the King of Jin heard this, he was delighted and immediately said, “Just send Shen Nan away.”
Soon three dishes and a soup were ready, and the family of three sat down to eat together for the first time.
The King of Jin was so satisfied that he almost cried. He finally got to have a meal with his daughter and daughter-in-law!
It's so hard!
These days, he even knows how to clean the pigpen and pick up cow dung!
He never dreamed in his life that one day he would have to deal with pig manure and cow manure, and do it willingly!
The King of Jin wanted to serve food to Xing Nong and Shen Ruoxi, but they both refused.
He sighed and reminded himself not to rush.
Xing Nong said to Shen Ruoxi: “Mom, I have dinner and I need to go to the city to buy some things.”
Chu Tiankuo said that the miracle doctor from Zhao State had already arrived in Chu State.
The genius doctor wanted the soul-soothing grass, and she could use it to exchange for a pill from the Zhao Kingdom genius doctor, so that she could be resurrected in the creation space. Xing Nong needed to go to the city and hand over a pot of soul-soothing grass to the shopkeeper of the Yingbin Building, and wait for him to send it to the capital, so that Chu Tiankuo's people could negotiate with the Zhao Kingdom genius doctor and get the pill.
Upon hearing this, the King of Jin's eyes lit up, and he immediately said, "I heard that today is the market day in Futai County. It's almost the New Year, and I just happen to need to go to the city to buy some things. Xing Nongtou, do you want to take your mother for a walk? I have a carriage, it's very convenient."
Upon hearing this, Shen Ruoxi quickly shook her head: “I’m not going! I have to go to the workshop after dinner.”
She is most afraid of going to crowded places!
She doesn't want to see strangers!
However, the King of Jin felt that Shen Ruoxi's condition would get better if he had more contact with people.
And now he sees Shen Ruoxi as nothing except being afraid of strangers.
If you are afraid of strangers, you won’t be afraid anymore if you spend more time with them.
So the king of Jin looked at Xingnong.
He felt that Shen Ruoxi listened to Xing Nong very much.
Xing Nong knew his intention, but Shen Ruoxi was poisoned, not mentally ill, and it would be fine once the poison was removed, so she ignored the King of Jin and only said to Shen Ruoxi: “Then I will take you to the workshop after dinner, mother.”
Although the way to the workshop was through village roads, no one felt comfortable with Shen Ruoxi going alone.
Shen Ruoxi smiled: “Okay!”
After dinner, Xing Nong sent Shen Ruoxi to the workshop. When they walked onto the official road, the carriage of the King of Jin was already waiting there.
"Xingnong, get on the carriage!"
Xing Nong didn't hesitate and got on the carriage directly.
She had something to tell the King of Jin, so that the King of Jin would not be unaware of the situation. That day, she took Shen Ruoxi to the market, which frightened her and made her sick.
In the carriage, Xing Nong told the King of Jin about Shen Ruoxi's situation, and then she said: "So, my mother is not going to places with many people. She can return to normal by contacting more people. What she needs is to remove the mandarin duck snake venom left in her body."
