Zeng Qingfeng touched his head in embarrassment and said rather sheepishly: "Yue Ya'er cried so pitifully. I was just worried that you would be anxious! So I didn't care so much."
Bai Jieru said: "There's no need to snatch it! You're usually such a gentle person, aren't you afraid of being criticized for doing this?"
Zeng Qingfeng heard his wife's concern for him, and his heart warmed, and he said: "Hey, Yue Ya'er cried so pitifully. I was afraid that you would be worried, so I couldn't care about it for the moment. I will definitely pay attention to it in the future."
Zhuqing ignored their husband and wife's lawsuit, but hugged Yue Ya'er, dipped milk mixed with honey in her mouth, and let her lick the taste. Sure enough, Yue Ya'er discovered the sweetness in the milk and stopped.
He resisted and started eating bite by bite.
The small bowl of milk quickly reached the bottom, and Yue Yue'er hadn't eaten enough yet, so she stared at the bottom of the bowl and babbling.
"Yue Ya'er hasn't eaten enough yet! It's best to go get some more." Zhu Qing put down the empty bowl and interrupted the young couple's conversation.
At this time, Zeng Qingfeng was persuading his wife with gentle words: "Jieru, don't mention the matter of Heli. I will definitely go back to investigate the matter of Yue Yaer's injury, and I will definitely give you an explanation then!"
Bai Jieru was doubtful about his promise: "How are you going to explain it? If your mother really did this, would you still break away from the mother-child relationship with her? Or would you still blame her and punish her?"
Let’s not talk about my father’s fault, no matter how she is, she is your mother, how can you still do anything to her?"
Zeng Qingfeng was speechless, and he subconsciously retorted: "Jie Ru, I know that my mother was not very considerate to you and your daughter before. But she has always been a kind old man, and she will definitely not do such a thing! Don't worry, I can guarantee it.
, this thing was probably not done by my mother! She must not have known about it either!"
Bai Jieru was about to refute when she heard Zhu Qing's words.
Zeng Qingfeng, who had a strong will to survive, said quickly: "Okay, it's a good thing that Yue Ya'er has such a good appetite! I'll buy more right away!"
Then he gave Bai Jieru a calm look: "Jieru, wait until I get the milk back! Don't be angry, it's important to take care of Yue Yaer now!"
Bai Jieru shook her head helplessly, took the crying Yue Ya'er from Zhu Qing's hand and coaxed her up: "Yue Ya'er, stop crying, ah! Your father went to get you milk!"
Then she remembered that milk was mixed with honey, so she rushed to the door and told Zeng Qingfeng: "Don't forget to buy honey! Don't grab it again!"
"I know!" Zeng Qingfeng turned around and smiled at her, and quickly went downstairs.
Seeing that Yue Yaer's condition was relatively stable, Zhu Qing felt a lot more reassured.
Looking at the young couple's appearance just now, she felt that they actually had a very good relationship. It would actually be a pity if they got divorced.
However, she is still a little girl, and she must not interfere in other people's family affairs casually. Moreover, if Yue Yaer's injury is really caused by her grandmother, if it were Zhuqing herself, she would also feel that this marriage is very serious.
Difficult to maintain.
Therefore, she did not make any comments about Bai Jieru.
Bai Jieru was too embarrassed to talk to Zhuqing about family matters. She only talked to her about some trivial matters in life and childcare issues.
Yue Ya'er must have eaten most of her meal. She was not a very angry child, so she stopped crying after her mother coaxed her for a while.
By the time Zeng Qingfeng came back, she was almost asleep.
However, she soon cheered up when she smelled the milk. This time, she ate less than half a bowl before she burped comfortably and fell asleep quickly.
Seeing that she was sleeping soundly, Zhu Qing and Bai Jieru looked at each other and smiled. It seemed that this child had been starved and injured before, and had not had a good rest. So now the wound was treated and she was fed and drank.
Enough, I fell asleep immediately.
"Doctor Sun, let's go to bed while the child is asleep! Otherwise, if the child wakes up in the middle of the night, he will not be able to sleep again." Bai Jieru greeted Zhu Qing.
Then he glared at her husband Zeng Qingfeng, who was still lingering at the door of their house: "Are you planning to wake up Yue Ya here if you don't go back yet?"
Zeng Qingfeng originally wanted to talk to her about what happened between them, but now was really not a good time to talk, so he could only go back reluctantly with a grimace on his face.
"Doctor Sun, I made you laugh. In fact, we as husband and wife have never had many conflicts. I respect you and you respect me. We rarely blush. If we really talk about divorce,
, In fact, I feel very uncomfortable. But if my mother-in-law really hurts Yue Yaer, I can't bear it!" Bai Jieru looked at Zhu Qing and saw the interaction between their husband and wife, and finally couldn't help but confide some thoughts to Zhu Qing.
.
"Sister Bai, don't make a decision before the matter is completely determined. This matter is indeed strange. Let Brother Zeng find out the truth before we talk! The most important thing for us now is that Yue Yaer's body can recover, and then slowly
Take your time and grow better." As a bystander, Zhu Qing could only persuade Bai Jieru like this first.
She can completely understand Bai Jieru's mood. And she is indeed disgusted with people who hold prejudices that favor boys over girls.
Why do we treat gender so blindly? Men and women are actually indispensable members of society. The world cannot survive without any gender.
"Hey, luckily we met you and your master! Nothing serious happened to Yue Ya'er! If anything happened to Yue Ya'er, I don't know how I can live my life anymore!" Bai Jieru sighed.
"Doctor Sun, I won't talk about these troublesome things anymore. Let's go to bed quickly! I hope that tonight, Yueyue will be able to spend it smoothly."
"Yeah! I will!" Zhu Qing blew out the bedside lighting lamp, and then tried his best to sleep with his eyes closed.
It is definitely unrealistic to take a baby who is over eight months old and want to sleep all night until dawn. But fortunately, Yue Yaer only woke up twice in the middle of the night, once to pee and change her diaper, and once because she was hungry. Bai Jieru
Get up and prepare hot milk for her.
During the whole process, Bai Jieru was very gentle, for fear of waking up Zhu Qing. However, Zhu Qing wanted to observe the child's condition, so she didn't sleep deeply. As soon as the child made any trouble, she would open her eyes.
She was reassured when she found out that the child was indeed fine. Therefore, at dawn, she woke up later than Bai Jeru, because her body was still a child after all.
After dawn, a group of them got up, greeted Yue Yaer for breakfast, and then finished their breakfast and planned to go back.
Zhu Qing accompanied Bai Jieru out of the inn, and just as she was about to get on the carriage, someone suddenly called her: "Isn't this Miss Sun? Why are you here in the county?"
She turned around and saw that it was Zhou Zhengnan!
"Good morning, Mr. Zhou!" She smiled at him, then curtsied.
"I brought patients to the county to see my master for treatment." Zhu Qing looked at Zhou Zhengnan and explained to him.
Zhou Zhengnan and Zhu Qing have met several times. But every time he saw Zhu Qing before, she was basically wearing old clothes and not dressing up. Today, Zhu Qing is wearing a fitted light blue jacket.
The skirt was combed into two neat buns, and her face was no longer yellow and thin as before, but white and rosy, like the pink peach blossoms in early spring in March. The most attractive thing was her bright eyes with a slight smile.
Being looked at by such glowing eyes, Zhou Zhengnan suddenly felt a little panicked and did not dare to look directly.
"Good morning, good morning, Miss Sun!" He wanted to go away quickly.
"Brother Zhou! It's you! Thank you for introducing us to Dr. Sun!" Just as Zhou Zhengnan was about to leave, Zeng Qingfeng happened to come out of the reception area. When he saw Zhou Zhengnan, he quickly stepped forward to say hello with a smile.
.
"Oh, Brother Zeng, is Ling Qianjin okay?" Seeing Zeng Qingfeng, Zhou Zhengnan felt much less restrained.
"It's okay! Fortunately, Dr. Sun took us to find Mr. Mo!" Zeng Qingfeng thought that his daughter's injury was hard to explain, so he didn't want to mention the child's illness. Instead, he thanked Zhou Zhengnan for finding a good doctor for him.
"Hey, it's just a trivial matter, nothing important!" Zhou Zhengnan waved his hand and felt a little embarrassed when he saw Zhu Qing looking at him.
Zhu Qing also smiled at him and said, "Yes, thank you Mr. Zhou for trusting me and letting the patient come to me!"
Zhou Zhengnan blushed a little: "Hey, I also heard that you took good care of many children in your village, so you asked Brother Zeng and the others to come over and give it a try. This is indeed a trivial matter, not worth mentioning."
Then he said to Zeng Qingfeng: "Brother Zeng, the academy will have its annual vacation soon. If you missed your homework a few days ago, you can come over to my house. I have taken notes. I can give you a look! The teacher asked me to go again today.
One day, it was getting late, so I left first!"
Zeng Qingfeng said gratefully: "Thank you, thank you! That's great! I've been busy with my children these days, and I really don't have time to go to the academy. Please, Brother Zhou, apologize to my husband on my behalf!"
Zhou Zhengnan nodded and said: "Okay, I will take care of Mr. Bingming! You just need to sort out the household affairs! Then I will take the first step and say goodbye!"
As he spoke, he nodded to Zhuqing again, and then led the book boy away.
Zhu Qing and the others continued to get on the carriage. Seeing that Zhu Qing actually knew Zhou Zhengnan, Zeng Qingfeng and Bai Jieru were a little curious.
The acquaintance of Zhu Qing and Zhou Zhengnan was not something that could not be discussed, so Zhu Qing calmly told the story of their acquaintance.
"Doctor Sun, you and Mr. Zhou are really mutually beneficial! He saved your brother, and you saved his grandmother! It is said that good deeds and evil deeds are rewarded, but this is really the case!" Bai Jieru listened.
After hearing Zhuqing's introduction, I couldn't help but sigh.
"Well, you can put it that way! But I really want to thank Mr. Zhou. If it weren't for him, my brother wouldn't have recovered so quickly. My family wouldn't have been able to get out of the original predicament. I wouldn't have had the opportunity to study medicine.
"Zhu Qing is telling the truth.
It was true that Zhou Zhengnan helped her first. But when Zhu Qing talked about Zhou Zhengnan helping her, he suddenly remembered that he seemed to have forgotten something, a very important thing!
She still owed Zhou Zhengnan ten taels of silver! When she met him today, she acted as if nothing had happened and didn't mention it at all!
No wonder she felt that Zhou Zhengnan's attitude towards her seemed strange today! It seemed that he wanted to say something to her, but was embarrassed to say it. She owed someone a debt for her feelings, but she still felt confident about it!
Thinking of this, Zhuqing couldn't help but feel annoyed. How could she forget such an important thing?
It's a pity that she doesn't have that much money on her now, so she can't pay it back to him.
In fact, after her peppermint oil became a big hit, her family no longer lacked the ten taels of silver! But she was so busy doing this and doing that that she actually completely forgot about it!
It’s almost the Chinese New Year. If you pay back after the Chinese New Year, it will be like owing someone an extra year!
The more Zhuqing thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt. But in front of Bai Jieru and the others, she was too embarrassed to say it. She just thought about it, and after going home as soon as possible, she told Mrs. Wang to take the money and pay it back as soon as possible!
Bai Jieru and his wife both have their own thoughts at the moment.
Bai Jieru didn't want to go back to face her mother-in-law. She was afraid that she wouldn't be able to hold it in anymore and would quarrel with her when she got back. So she asked her carriage driver to take Zhuqing home first and then take her back to her parents' home.
Zeng Qingfeng's thoughts were all about how he would explain to his father-in-law and mother-in-law when he went to see them later, and how he would inquire about this matter with his mother when he returned.
No matter what, his daughter was hurt and he must know who the murderer is!
Therefore, the three of them didn't talk much all the way back.
Because Little Crescent had drank enough milk in the morning, she slept soundly all the way without disturbing any adults.
Returning to Cuizhu Village, as soon as they arrived at the entrance of the village, they saw Mrs. Wang waiting eagerly for her daughter's return.
"Qingya, you're back! I was worried all night last night, and I didn't even ask you to bring more money with you! How did you stay in the inn? Did these two people pay for it for you?
How much, I'll give it right away!" As soon as Mrs. Wang saw her daughter, she hurriedly came to greet her.
"Mom, it's okay! My master gave me five taels of silver and asked me to stay here to welcome the guests. It was too late yesterday and it was inconvenient to come back, so I stayed here. I didn't ask anyone to bring you a message, which made you worry.
!" Zhuqing quickly comforted her.
"Thanks to Doctor Sun for helping Zhuo Jing take care of the child last night! Auntie, don't say we didn't pay her the rent. Even if we paid for the rent, we should do it! Doctor Sun, how much is your consultation fee? We still have to pay for the rent."
I didn’t give you any consultation fee!” Zeng Qingfeng quickly came out to greet Ms. Wang.
Bai Jieru held the crescent moon and was unable to move.
"You have already paid my master the consultation fee, so I don't need it!" Zhu Qing declined when she thought of her master's question about the ten taels of silver they had received for the consultation fee.
"How can that be done? What belongs to Mr. Mo belongs to Mr. Mo! We should give it to you too!" How could Zeng Qingfeng agree?
Seeing that Zhuqing refused to answer how much it was, he directly stuffed a five-tael silver ingot into Wang's hand: "Auntie, please take it with me!"
