Shen Qiu also wanted to scoop some soup but Gu Yu and the rest did not give it to him. Shen Qiu also sensed something and guessed that Shen Miao was angry with him but he did not know what he did wrong and could only look at Shen Miao. Shen Miao waited until everyone had almost finished drinking before she let Bai Lu take out a bowl from the bottom of the basket and said, "You like sweet so this bowl has honey in it. Drink it."
"Younger Sister is really good!" Shen Qiu was overjoyed and snatched it over to drink big mouthfuls of soup. Shen Miao could not bear to look at his gluttonous appearance.
When those soldiers received the soup that Shen Miao personally made, their hearts were half touched and half liked it. Naturally they flattered Shen Miao and felt that Shen Miao did not have the temperament of a Eldest Young Lady and was approachable and beautiful, just like a fairy.
Shen Miao was surrounded by the soldiers and Jing Chu Chu was completely left out. There were several times when she wanted to leave but at the end she clenched her teeth and stayed.
When everyone went to practice their swords, Shen Xin and Luo Xue Yan also went over. Shen Qiu sat on the stone lion to rest and Shen Miao then walked over to Jing Chu Chu's side and said with a smile, "Biao Older Sister's desserts are not bad but martial artists would be tired and thirsty after practicing swords during the day. You still make desserts, wouldn't it make their mouths even more parched?" Shen Miao said with a smile, "Next time it is better to make soup."
Jing Chu Chu's face turned green and white. Shen Miao's words were clearly exposing that she was using the pretense of sending desserts but her thoughts were not really thinking for these martial artists, otherwise she would not have sent these dry things. Even though she was angry in her heart, Jing Chu Chu still lowered her head in panic, as if she was very afraid, "Many thanks to Biao Younger Sister's reminder. Chu Chu will not need to worry." Finishing, she looked at Shen Qiu who was at the side for help, hoping that Shen Qiu would help her out.
Unfortunately even though Shen Qiu's personality was sincere, he was a blockhead who did not understand amorous feelings in matters between men and women, thus he felt inexplicable when he met Jing Chu Chu's gaze. It was Shen Miao who smiled when she saw it, "Eldest Brother did not want to eat Biao Older Sister's pastries just now. Eat some now."
"Ke." Shen Qiu waved his hand. "I just drank a bowl of soup. I'm a little full and can't eat much. Let's eat later."
Shen Miao was very satisfied. The bowl of soup that was given to Shen Qiu was especially sufficient. She did not believe that after Shen Qiu drank this bowl of soup, he would still have the stomach to eat Jing Chu Chu's pastries. Unless Shen Qiu was transformed from a pig.
Jing Chu Chu was somewhat disappointed. Shen Qiu stood up and said, "I will also go and practice." He then walked towards the courtyard.
Looking at Shen Qiu's receding figure, Jing Chu Chu was somewhat unreconciled and wanted to say something but could only bite her lips as she watched. Shen Miao gently smiled and patted her hands, "One fear that Biao Older Sister's pastries will not taste good when they are cold. If Biao Older Sister does not mind, one can send it to Second Older Brother."
"Second Older Brother?" Jing Chu Chu looked at Shen Miao in puzzlement.
"Yes." Shen Miao smiled gently, "Like my Eldest Brother and the rest, they are always in the bitter cold Northwestern region all year round and would not be able to appreciate these exquisite things. But my Second Older Brother is different. He had already entered the official career at a young age and is now in the capital, his future is limitless." Shen Miao shook her head and sighed, "It is a pity that there is no one around to take care of his daily life. Males are always not concerned about food and clothing. Perhaps Biao Older Sister's Suzhou snacks would suit his appetite."
When Jing Chu Chu heard that, her eyes were somewhat cloudy and uncertain. She only heard Shen Miao smiling, "Perhaps in the future if Second Older Brother has a wife, one would be able to enjoy the good fortune of eating. One do not know which Young Lady would have the fortune to be my Second Sao. Biao Older Sister does not know that my Second Older Brother is the sweetheart of many official's young ladies in the Ding capital."
"Second Young Master …" Jing Chu Chu hesitated for a moment before asking, "Currently there is no young lady that you fancy?"
