Chapter 249 The princess serves her husband to wash his feet?
His heart is not made of stone. Being loved so passionately and treated so sincerely can soften even the hardest heart.
He thought that if she had not hurt Mudan, perhaps over time he would really fall in love with her.
They really would make a lovely couple!
Unfortunately, there is no "if" in this world. Hurt is hurt, and the facts cannot be changed.
"Let me do it, you take a break."
"Ah."
Jin Mudan rubbed her sore shoulders and went out.
Mo Lingchen took over personally, and his hands became sore after just a few presses. It turned out that taking care of patients was so tiring.
She has always been a princess, yet she persisted for so long!
Soon, Jin Mudan brought in a basin of warm water and placed it at the man's feet: "You've been tired for a few days, soak your feet."
"I'll be the one watching tonight, you go get some good sleep."
Mo Lingchen has been staying by the old lady's bedside these past few days because the imperial physician said she could die at any time.
He wanted to accompany the old man until the last moment and didn't want to have any regrets.
Mo Lingchen looked at the wooden basin at his feet, staring at her blankly, his face full of disbelief.
A princess actually brought him water to wash his feet?
The maids who were on night watch outside were also whispering, "The eldest master is really amazing. He can even get the princess to personally bring him water to wash his feet."
"Yes, the princess washed her husband's feet. Who would believe it if they told others about it?"
"Our young master is really impressive."
Jin Mudan listened to the discussions outside and looked at Mo Lingchen's stunned expression, her expression still natural.
She is a typical good wife and mother. She was taught from childhood to follow the three obediences and four virtues and to regard her husband as her God.
What's more, Mo Lingchen is the man she loves deeply and the object of her admiration.
Not only was she willing to serve him, she also felt that she could do too little.
After all, she doesn't have much time left, and every day that passes is one day less.
Of course she has to do what she wants in the limited time.
The only thing she wanted to do now was to take good care of Mo Lingchen and make him feel less tired while being sad.
As for other people's opinions and thoughts, and all that messy gossip.
She doesn't care!
She has died once and only cares about her own feelings, not other people's opinions.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
"As a wife, shouldn't I feel sorry for my husband?"
"You haven't slept for several days and nights. How can I not feel distressed?"
"Lift your feet!" The woman reached out and took off the man's shoes.
Mo Lingchen reacted and instinctively retracted his foot, feeling uncomfortable all over.
If the person washing his feet now was a maid, he would think it was natural.
But the other party is a princess, the emperor's most beloved daughter.
Is he worthy?
Although he hated Chu Qinghe, his inherent sense of hierarchy and the principle of ruler-ruler and subject-subject would not allow him to accept the princess washing his feet with peace of mind.
"No... no need."
"I will do it myself."
"It's okay. I told you not to treat me as a princess, just treat me as your wife."
"It's normal for a wife to serve her husband!"
Jin Mudan noticed his discomfort, so she stood up and closed the door, blocking out the sight and sound from outside.
"I'll massage your feet, and you won't suffer from insomnia so easily."
Mo Lingchen stopped trying to stop her. He understood her character. Even though she had become gentle and considerate now, she was still the princess who did whatever she wanted at heart.
No one can stop her from doing what she wants to do!
She was already dying, and just wanted to play the role of a loving couple with him before she died.
This was her wish, and she had to cooperate even if he was unwilling.
"what ever!"
Jin Mudan glanced at the man. He was fine just now, why did his expression suddenly change?
"You're angry?"
"No."
Next, Jin Mudan massaged his feet while actively finding topics to chat with him.
Mo Lingchen responded intermittently, but not every sentence was a response!
"Husband, did you ever dream of becoming a general when you were a child?"
"..."
Here she comes again. I don’t know what’s wrong with her recently. She always asks him questions like whether he knows martial arts, whether he has read military books, whether he wants to fight in a war, etc.
Now you ask him if he wants to be a general!
Seeing the man ignoring her coldly, Jin Mudan shamelessly continued to ask, "Speak up, why are you always ignoring me?"
"no!"
Men still value words like gold.
"Under what circumstances do you think the Emperor... Father would suddenly ask a civilian to lead troops into battle?"
"do not know."
"Husband, don't you want to pay attention to me?"
"Can't you say one more word?"
"It's a long night. What else can we do besides chatting?"
"Aren't you bored?"
"will not!"
"..."
Jin Mudan was surprisingly patient. Even in the face of the man's indifferent attitude, she still took the initiative to find topics to talk to him.
"My lord, if the imperial court fails to deliver food and fodder in time during a war, what should we do?"
"Is it mentioned in military books?"
"Wait to die!"
Jin Mudan's expression changed: "No."
Mo Lingchen looked at her strangely. Why was she so excited?
It's strange, why would a girl suddenly become interested in war?
"What's not working?"
Jin Mudan said seriously: "We can't wait to die, we must prepare for a rainy day."
"Without food and fodder, we'll either starve to death or die in battle. How can we prepare for a rainy day?"
"I'd like to hear the princess's opinion!"
Jin Mudan shook her head dejectedly: "How would I know? I don't understand the art of war."
The man suddenly leaned closer and asked, "Princess, why are you suddenly so interested in war?"
Their breathing was almost audible, and this was the first time he had taken the initiative to get so close to her.
Jin Mudan looked at the man's magnified Jing Junyan, leaned back nervously, and took the initiative to keep some distance.
"I...I'm just asking casually."
Mo Lingchen saw her blushing face and realized that he was too close, so he coughed awkwardly.
"It's getting late, Princess, please go to bed early."
Jin Mudan shook her head: "You've been guarding for two days and two nights. Let me take over tonight."
"Go get some sleep. If you have any questions, I'll wake you up immediately."
"Don't worry, I won't fall asleep."
"You need to be well-rested."
"I'm going to tell you something you don't want to hear. If Grandma passes away, you'll still have a lot of things to take care of. If you can't hold on any longer, who will you count on to take care of Grandma's funeral?"
"Your father is not young anymore, and he has been suffering from many illnesses recently."
"Your stepmother is even less reliable. Has she visited Grandma once in the past three days?"
Under Jin Mudan's persuasion, Mo Lingchen finally went to sleep.
Even he himself did not expect that he, who had always had poor sleep, slept soundly all night without waking up once.
He wanted to take a nap before going to protect his grandmother, but when he opened his eyes it was already bright outside.
Mo Lingchen sat up suddenly and hurried to check on the old lady.
As a result, the old man woke up and was holding Chu Qinghe's hand and talking kindly.
