Chapter 1231 Famine and Natural Disaster 390

"I made this decision after serving the young lady for a while. You know Chunmei longs for the outside world."

They knew this, after all, they were sisters who grew up together and knew a thing or two about each other's interests and hobbies.

Chunliu's eyes flickered, "Did Miss Cheng agree?"

Chunxi looked at her and thought she was a little weird, but didn't think much about it.

"The young lady agreed. Chunmei can stay by her side and serve her in the future. When the young lady leaves, she will take her with her. Alas, if Chunmei leaves, we don't know if we will have the chance to meet again."

There was a look of longing in Chunliu's eyes.

Chunhong saw the reactions of the two people and knew that Chunliu must be moved; although Chunliu was the most honest among the sisters, honest people also had expectations in their hearts that others were unknown.

This expectation is not about marriage, but like Chunmei, yearning for the colorful world outside.

"Chunliu, it's not easy for Miss Cheng to accept Chunmei." I hope she can understand and let go of the wrong thoughts as soon as possible. "Besides, your uncle and aunt treat you very well. Are you willing to leave them?"

As soon as Chunhong said that, Chunxi reacted and asked in surprise, "Chunliu, you don't want to leave too, do you?"

Chunliu pursed her lips, feeling guilty and not daring to look at them.

She didn't say anything, but from her reaction, it was clear that she didn't realize she was wrong.

Chunxi held his forehead with his hand, "Mrs. Cheng is very kind to the servants, but are you willing to leave your parents? If you leave them, you will have to face the right and wrong outside alone; being with Mistress Cheng is a good choice, but being with her is more dangerous, do you know that?"

"Danger?" He was skeptical.

Chunhong asked nervously, "Chunxi, is it really dangerous around Miss Cheng?"

Chunxi first looked at Chunliu who didn't quite believe it, and then said to Chunhong, "Don't disbelieve me. Although being with Miss Cheng is not as good as being with the prince, Chunmei and I have served Miss Cheng for such a long time. As far as we know, Miss Cheng has been assassinated several times. I am not making this up. We were supposed to come back yesterday, but we encountered a large-scale assassination, and many people died! Chunmei and I were so scared that our legs went limp."

"There was blood everywhere, and every corpse was covered in blood. Moreover, Chunmei had to stay with Miss Cheng and come into contact with other men. She had to treat them and bandage their wounds. Once a war broke out in the military camp, not only the military doctors had to go, but Miss Cheng, Chunmei, and even I had to go and help."

"Chunliu, think about it. If you really surrender and are accepted by Miss Cheng, what will you face in the future? You will often deal with blood and there won't be many peaceful days. Miss Cheng doesn't keep idle people around her. I'm not afraid to tell you that Chunmei worked hard to learn the art of medicine in the military camp in order to serve Miss Cheng better. Do you understand what this means?"

Chun Liu looked dazed. She never expected that she would have to go through so many unknowns while following Miss Cheng.

"I don't know how Chunmei managed to hold on." Thinking of this, she began to back out, and then asked, "Chunxi, are you comfortable with Miss Cheng?"

Chunxi nodded, "Of course I adapted. Miss Cheng is not a demanding person. It's just that sometimes we have to face some scenes that we can't even imagine on weekdays. At first, I didn't dare to contact those soldiers and I avoided them as far as I could. Fortunately, Miss Cheng is gentle and kind, and she gave us time to adapt. Later, we slowly adapted to helping in the military camp."

Seeing that Chunliu had not completely given up her intention, Chunhong asked Chunxi and winked at him. "What do you do in the military camp?"

Chunxi was very observant, so he understood and cooperated. "In the morning, we get up first to help Miss Cheng wash and eat, and then go to the military medical camp to help. The army is short of medicinal materials, and the soldiers often go into the mountains to pick fresh medicinal materials. We mostly deal with the medicinal materials. When we are free, or when the military doctors in the military medical camp are too busy, we help treat simple wounds or give medicine."

"At night, after helping Miss Cheng wash up, we can finally have some free time. You guys are enjoying a good life in the palace. Chunmei and I are busy every day, and Miss Cheng has never had any free time either."

"Chun Liu, if you really want to follow Miss Cheng, then you have to think carefully about whether you can adapt to the busyness; the unknown situations you will face in the future, and most importantly, do you have any skills that you can show off?"

After hearing this, Chunhong couldn't help but think deeply, and then looked at Chunliu, observing Chunliu's expression.

Chunliu's face kept changing. Sometimes she felt that she could do it, and sometimes she felt that she couldn't. She was okay at serving others, but if she were really asked to go to the battlefield, or bandage the soldiers, or help process medicinal materials and assist the military doctors, she would be exhausted to death.

Thinking of this, she felt that serving Miss Cheng was not so good after all.

"Chunhong, Chunxi, I won't go; I'd rather stay with my parents. It's good to stay in Fucheng."

Chunhong and Chunxi showed relief in their eyes. It was good that they could persuade the people.

Chunliu is greedy and loves beauty. She is lucky to have a small piece of land in Fucheng Palace. She has parents who are also her own children to look after her, and relatives and friends to support her. In the future, she will marry into a wealthy housekeeper. She won't have to do the work of serving others, and can just eat and drink and live a happy life.

Chunhong laughed, "You are such a glutton, and you are not afraid that your master will be upset if you go to serve him. Fortunately, you don't have to go. Otherwise, when you go out, no one will watch over you, and you will have to do whatever you want. I don't know how your life will be like in the future."

"Hmph, stop looking down on others." Chun Liu didn't think she was lacking in anything. Everyone has their own personality. She developed this kind of personality because her parents indulged her. It's not like she didn't know the etiquette and rules. "Ms. Cheng is very good, but who made me lazy?"

She is not the kind of person who strives for her dreams, commonly known as a dreamer.

"Yes, yes, we shouldn't look down on you, but you really love to eat." Chunxi said with a joking smile.

Chunliu's cheeks were slightly red. She loved eating a little. "My mother said that life is all about eating and drinking. Only when you eat and drink well can you have a good life."

"Yes, your mother is right."

Chunhong and Chunxi said something perfunctorily to her, looked at each other and smiled in tacit understanding; then they packed up their snacks and distributed the ones that should be distributed to their families; they could not eat so much and were not as greedy as Chunliu.

Chun Liu didn't care. She sat at the table, watching them clean up, and asked, "Are you going to take the things back home again?"

"We can't finish it, and we don't like it as much as you do, so of course we have to share it." Chunxi glanced at her, his eyes calm and composed.
