Chapter 72 Crying, why are you so greedy
It was clearly said that the prince was hungry and was anxious to eat. The cooks in the small kitchen were busy as hell. But when the maids came to the main room with the food, they found the door closed.

The maids were confused. They didn't dare to delay delivering the meal, nor did they dare to knock on the door rashly.

They were standing outside the door with their food in hand, not knowing what to do. Fortunately, Songzhi came over and said hurriedly, "Let the cook keep the food warm first."

"Didn't they say that the prince was so hungry that he was waiting impatiently?" the little maidservant was confused.

As he was speaking, he heard a faint cry coming from inside the room, which sounded delicate, soft and pitiful.

The little maids were even more confused. They opened their eyes wide and looked at the pine branches beside them.

"Sister Songzhi, what's going on? Is it Sister Qin who is crying?"

Songzhi held his forehead helplessly: "Go down quickly, you will understand when you grow up and get married."

Having said that, Songzhi pushed the little brats out of the house without saying a word. The servants in the house were used to it and tried to stay away from the main house and busy themselves with their own tasks.

It was not until the moon rose above the willows that the door of the main house was pushed open from the inside.

Lu Ji stood at the door in a neat suit and ordered, "Go get some food."

The maids quickly obeyed the order and were about to step forward when they heard the prince say, "Make a bowl of nourishing soup for Miss Qin."

After saying that, he turned around and went back to the house.

The food in the small kitchen had long been heated and had lost its taste. The cooks hurriedly calculated the time and just made a new meal, including Qin Xiaoning's tonic soup, which the cooks had cooked early without any instructions. The maids went into the kitchen and took the food directly.

When Qin Xiaoning woke up, it was already midnight. Lu Ji was leaning on the couch in front of the window reading a book. She glanced at the clock on the wall and said, "It's the middle of the night, why aren't you sleeping?"

Seeing that she was awake, Lu Ji raised his eyes and looked at her, and replied, "You haven't had dinner yet."

As he spoke, he stood up and came to her side: "Get up, eat something and then go to sleep."

"I'm not hungry anymore." She glared at Lu Ji and said with dissatisfaction in her tone: "Besides, I can't get up. I don't have the energy."

"You've slept for so long, but you still haven't recovered?" Lu Ji sat on the bed, got close to her, and coaxed her in a gentle voice: "How about I ask someone to bring the food over, and you can eat it in bed."

Qin Xiaoning thought for a moment and asked, "What are they?"

Lu Ji said it again, and the little woman said listlessly: "I have no appetite. I don't want to eat."

"Then have some soup."

As he said that, Lu Ji went out and called for someone to bring some nourishing soup. When he brought it to her, the little woman still refused to get up. She curled up in the quilt, revealing only her little fox-like face: "You are so soft, feed me."

"Sit up and eat." Lu Ji glared at her and said, "Don't be so arrogant. I don't believe you don't even have the strength to hold the bowl."

She nestled in the soft quilt, her charming eyes glared at him, and said in a fierce tone: "I am like this because of you. If you don't agree, don't touch me again in the future."

It seemed that he had really been very harsh just now, and she had fallen asleep, but she was still angry with him.

Lu Ji walked forward, held her soft waist and picked her up, leaning her against the pillow at the head of the bed. The little girl lay softly and tenderly, with her rosy lips opened, waiting for her to feed her coquettishly.

In other words, Lu Ji would not have the patience for her if it were anyone else.

He sat beside the bed and fed her soup spoonful by spoonful.

Even when drinking soup, she took small sips at a time, slowly and delicately.

Lu Ji patiently fed him and asked, "Are you full?"

The little woman nodded, then slid back into the quilt.

Lu Ji glanced at her and couldn't help but laugh.

He turned around and put the soup bowl back on the table, then extinguished the candle, opened the quilt, got on the bed, and pulled the little man into his arms.

It's fragrant and soft, and very comfortable to hold in your arms.

He stroked her smooth skin with his big hands and asked, "Is the medicine bag still there?" The little girl nodded as he spoke, "This medicine bag that grandma got is very useful."

"Well, does it still hurt?" He leaned close to its ear, his voice hoarse.

She was so shocked that she quickly poked her head out of his arms: "What are you going to do?"

As she spoke, her soft body slid out of his arms like a fish, tightly wrapped in the quilt, and half buried her head in the quilt, leaving only two small fox eyes: "It's been three times, you should have had enough."

Seeing her wary look, Lu Ji smacked his lips and said, "I didn't say I wanted more."

"Then you should get some sleep. It's so late and you have to go to court tomorrow." She said righteously.

"I know." He reached out his big hand towards her and said, "Come here, just hold me while I sleep, I don't want anything else."

I don't believe him.

The little woman pushed his hand away and tightened the quilt again: "I like to sleep alone."

"Don't you always like me to hold you in my arms?" As he said that, he tore off the quilt wrapped around her without saying a word and pulled her over.

"I really don't want it anymore." Her voice was already filled with tears.

He leaned close to her ear and whispered, "This time, I promise, be gentler. Give it to me again, okay?"

As he spoke, he reached out and pulled out the medicine bag from between her legs, then moved forward.

Because she had just held the medicine bag, her body was very sensitive. She was hugged by him and lay in his arms, whimpering non-stop.

As a result, Lu Ji couldn't control himself. He had promised to be gentler, but in the end, he became a wild horse that had run away.

Qin Xiaoning felt wronged: "If I knew you were so greedy, I shouldn't have followed you in the first place."

Lu Ji hugged her and asked with a cold snort: "If you don't follow me, you will be an old maid for the rest of your life?"

"That's better than being asked for more all day long by you." She pouted, "Why are you so greedy? I really can't stand you. I couldn't help it just now and shouted. I don't know how those maids in the yard laughed at me."

As she spoke, she felt so aggrieved that she wanted to cry.

"You are mine, who dares to laugh at you?" Lu Ji coaxed her: "If you want to shout, just shout, it's no fun to hold it in."

"Don't talk nonsense." She turned her head away and ignored him.

Seeing that the little girl was complaining endlessly, Lu Ji stroked her back and coaxed her gently: "Don't you realize that since you followed me, you have become more beautiful and more feminine than before."

As he spoke, he stretched out his arms and hugged her in his arms: "Even your ideas have become more mature than before. What you told me today about the past and the harem really surprised me. I always thought you were young and ignorant, but I didn't expect you to have such insights."

Seeing that he rarely praised others, Qin Xiaoning hummed, "That's nothing. In the private school, the old teacher who taught policy essays often praised me for my unique insights."

"Have you all learned the policy?"

"I have learned it." She said, "I have finished two books."

He lowered his eyes to look at her and asked, "Can you learn it?"

She hummed proudly: "If I can't learn it, how can the teacher praise me?"

Then, she said with a little pride: "In the private school, I was first-rate in all subjects. I learned better than them."

Lu Ji said: "Isn't this the benefit of following me?"

"What does this have to do with you?" she wondered.

Lu Ji said seriously: "Only when a woman becomes a woman can she become wiser and smarter, so you can learn better than those little girls." Then he patted her buttocks: "So, don't always refuse to do it in the future. This matter is not only beneficial to men, but also to women."
