313 Childbirth (Part 3)
Li Miao felt refreshed and more energetic with a cleaner environment.
“Li Miao, do you want to eat something? I asked Madam Qin to make you some eggs.”
Hearing her words, Li Miao really felt a little hungry.
After she finished eating and fell into a deep sleep, Yue Jiaojiao looked at the two babies, whose eyes were still closed. “Madam Qin, you can stay here and take care of them. I’ll make a trip to Lizheng’s house.”
“What for?”
“Zhao Zhan asked Lizheng’s son to raise a few goats. I’ll go buy one that’s still producing milk and bring it here.”
Goat’s milk was good for the body and wouldn’t make one fat easily. It was more suitable for Li Miao, who had just given birth, than meat soup.
“You’ll lead them back here?”
Madam Qin looked at her delicate and pretty appearance and couldn’t help but wonder who would be leading the other.
“Don’t worry. If the goat are too fierce, I can get them to send it over.”
She didn’t have any needlework, so she couldn’t personally make anything for Li Miao, so she might as well lead the goats first.
Madam Qin looked worried.
Yue Jiaojiao had already gone straight to Lizheng’s house without any thought. When Yang Lizheng saw her, he laughed heartily. “Zhao Zhan, that kid was right. You really came.”
“What?” Yue Jiaojiao was puzzled. “What did Zhao Zhan say to you?”
“He told me to prepare the goats. When Li Miao gave birth, he told me to help you take the goat to his house when you come. This kid is really smart!”
The sky was dark, and Yue Jiaojiao was standing not far away from the center, her eyes were red.
This rough hunter had thought of everything for her.
“I went to pick the goat after I brought the midwife back with Dashan.”
As Yang Lizheng spoke, he brought a goat out from the courtyard. “Let’s go. I’ll help you send this goat over. Zhao Zhan has already given us some silver for it.”
Yue Jiaojiao stared blankly at the goat that the older man was holding in his hand.
She didn’t feel anything after a busy day, but when she heard Zhao Zhan’s name again, Yue Jiaojiao couldn’t help but feel sour in her heart.
She missed him very much.
Yang Lizheng saw that she was not following him and stopped in his tracks. “Let’s go. Zhao Zhan said that if you come at night, you have to walk before me. I’ve lived for so long, but I’ve never seen someone who dotes on his wife so much.”
“Alright.”
Yue Jiaojiao wouldn’t reveal too much of her emotions in front of people she wasn’t familiar with, and she was actually very defensive when it came to sharing.
The two of them went to Li Miao’s house one after another.
“Alright, I’ll tie the goat to the yard. If there’s nothing else, I’ll go back first.”
Yue Jiaojiao thanked Yang Lizheng.
“How was the trip?”
Madam Qin, who was in the room, heard the commotion and came out to greet him. “Did Lizheng send you here?”
“Yes, Zhao Zhan told Lizheng before he left that I would bring the goat back.”
Madam Qin sighed. “I’ve lived for so long, but this is the first time I’ve seen someone like him. Although your father loved your mother back then, to be honest, your father wasn’t as good as Zhao Zhan.”
The worry in Madam Qin’s heart had already tilted.
Even though Yue Jiaojiao had always ranked first in her heart, Zhao Zhan had already claimed the first place in Madam Qin’s heart as a top-tier good man.
“Madam Qin, I’m a little tired. I’ll be going back first.”
Yue Jiaojiao was not in a good mood.
Upon seeing this, Madam Qin realized that she had said the wrong thing. She said carefully, “You can go back first. I’ll stay here and watch over them. Don’t worry, I have experience in taking care of them.”
Yue Jiaojiao nodded her head.
As soon as she returned to the courtyard, the two little puppies bounced around her feet.
“You’re back?” Doctor Sun had been standing guard in the front yard the entire time. When he saw Yue Jiaojiao return, he walked over and handed her a wooden box.
“Take this.”
“Doctor Sun, did Zhao Zhan ask you to give this to me as well?”
“Exactly, this kid is really troublesome. If there’s anything, he could have just told you directly, but he just had to drag me along and tell me a bunch of things.”
Though Doctor Sun was disdainful, his eyes were gentle as he looked at Yue Jiaojiao. “This is to calm your mind. If you can’t sleep well at night, just light one. It’ll help you sleep well. Although this thing doesn’t harm your body, you should use it carefully. I only have this box.”
“Thank you, Doctor Sun.”
Yue Jiaojiao held the wooden box in her arms.
She returned to her bedroom and sat in the room without even lighting the oil lamp.
It wasn’t until she felt cold that she slowly moved her body. “Zhao Zhan…”
There was no response.
Habits were a scary thing.
Yue Jiaojiao laughed at herself and got up to light the oil lamp. She went to the small kitchen to get some hot water to wash up and then lay on the bed.
…
At this moment, Zhao Zhan, who had already left Wangshan Town far away, was dragging Fang Tianliu and fleeing.
