Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Although Granny Liu was a little unhappy, she saw that Ruyi was polite and considerate. Thinking that there were many families who had looked for her to deliver the child, her unhappiness disappeared. She smiled politely and said, “Your residence is too polite. If you need anything in the future, just call me.”

Ruyi also cupped her hands politely and smiled. “Thank you, Auntie Liu. I’ll take my leave.”

When Ruyi came out of Granny Liu’s house, the old woman arranged by Granny Song entered her house to ask for information. When Granny Liu saw the old woman, she asked, “May I know which residence you’re from? Are you here to deliver the child or see a doctor?”

The old woman smiled and handed over a pouch. “Sister Liu, I want to ask, did that young man ask you to deliver the child?”

Granny Liu pinched the pouch in her hand and looked at her with a smile. “Sister, we have rules in the industry. Originally, we can’t casually reveal the news of our employer, but I can tell you about that person just now. He came back and forth to me. He said that someone in their residence sent a midwife to deliver the child. There’s no need for me to go.”

Seeing Granny Liu’s expression, the old woman felt that she was not lying to her. She smiled and bowed before leaving.

Granny Liu waited for the old woman to walk away. She looked at the pouch in her hand and said to herself, “Fortunately, the Zhou family returned to me.

Otherwise, it would be troublesome. Who was targeting Madam Zhou?”

The old woman went back and told Granny Song the news she had found out. Granny Song lowered her head and thought for a moment. Could it be that the news had leaked? It was better to ignore it and avoid unnecessary trouble. She looked up at the old woman and said, “Go back and continue to keep an eye on her.’

At the end of September, the weather became colder and colder. Most people put on their clothes. Li Yu thought that it was almost winter. She thought of the two rows of sweet potatoes and drew a blueprint of a greenhouse. She handed it to Ji Xiang and said, “Go to the Wang Family Villageand build a greenhouse for those sweet potatoes with bamboo poles and straw curtains.”

“Tell Han San’s family to lift the straw curtain covering it when it’s warm in the day and let those sweet potatoes bask in the sun. Also, bring the contents of the wooden box back to the city.”

“Yes, Madam.” Ji Xiang agreed and went to the Wang Family Village. After building a large shed, he returned to the city with a few boxes of sweet potatoes.

Li Yu asked him to place those sweet potatoes in the kitchen at night and carry them outside during the day. Auntie He, Old Madam Liu, and the others took note of Li Yu’s precious boxes and carried them in and out on time every day. They tended to them meticulously as if they were serving treasures.

The frost sun was also a good day for nourishment. Mr. Wen obtained some warm nourishing herbs and handed them to Auntie He to stew soup for everyone. Li Yu could no longer nourish herself. She watched Yangyang and Zhou Jia drink the nourishing soup and thought of the wild animals in the space. She thought about when she could find an opportunity to let Auntie He make it.

On the first day of October, Mr. Wen’s Wen Medical Hall opened. He invited two physicians, one with the surname Zou and the other with the surname Liu. On the first day of opening, they treated poor patients above the age of 40 for free.

Li Yu brought Granny Chen and Xing Hua to the medical center. There were not many patients in the medical center. Mr. Wen was taking the pulse of an old man whose clothes had been washed until they were white. Seven Pounds sat beside Mr. Wen and looked at him seriously.

When Ah Fa, the clerk of the medical center, saw Li Yu, he eagerly welcomed her into the shop. Li Yu went to the backyard to see Ruyi leading people to tidy up the storeroom at the back. A layer of wood lime and charcoal was spread under the shelves of the storeroom.

Ruyi stared at the bottom of the shelf and said with a smile, “Madam, the owner of the medicinal herb shop taught me this. He said that this can prevent moisture ”

Li Yu smiled and nodded. “These two can indeed prevent the tide. This shopkeeper knows how to do business.”

“Yes! This pharmacy does the best business,” Ruyi said.

Li Yu looked around and saw that Mr. Wen had already prescribed a prescription for the patient and was explaining the patient’s situation to Seven Pounds. She looked up and saw Li Yu. She smiled and said, “Xiaoyu, what do you think of this shop?”

“Not bad. It’s quite spacious. It’s convenient to have a courtyard at the back.” Li Yu smiled.

At this moment, the old man had already taken the medicine. He took out a

copper coin from his pocket with a trembling hand and asked, “Young man, how much?”

Ah Fa said to him loudly, “Old man, it’s opening today. Doctor Wen said that today, patients above 40 years old will be treated for free. It’s written on the sign outside.”

The old man was overjoyed when he heard that. “There’s such a thing? Thank you! Thank you!” As he spoke, he bowed gratefully to Mr. Wen. “Thank you, Doctor Wen.”

Mr. Wen nodded and smiled. “Go! The medicinal dregs can be used to soak your feet before bed at night.”

“Good, that’s great. I was worried that there wouldn’t be enough copper coins. I thought that the medicine you prescribed was cheap, so I boldly came. Thank you.” The old man cupped his hands repeatedly and thanked him.

After a while, the front of the medical center was filled with patients in thin clothes. Some were even wearing tattered clothes.

Seeing that they were trembling in the cold wind, Li Yu thought for a moment and went into the backyard to say to Ruyi, “Go to the market and buy some bones and ginger. Also, buy a cauldron to make bone soup.”

Ruyi asked in confusion, “Madam, are you buying the cauldron and bones to make soup in the shop for those patients?”

Li Yu nodded. “That’s right. In the future, we’ll also make bone ginger soup to ward off the cold for them every day.”

Ruyi bowed and said, “Yes, Madam. I’ll do it now.”

From then on, on every day that the Wen family’s medical center practised medicine, there would be a large cauldron at the entrance of the medical center. There was bone ginger soup boiling inside, and it would be changed to herbal tea in summer.

In the blink of an eye, it was the day of Lin Lan’s marriage. Fan Mingfang also went to the Lin family to help. Li Yu’s family went to the Lin family to attend the banquet to congratulate them.

After the wedding banquet, it was winter solstice in the blink of an eye. People put on bloated winter clothes and burned the brazier. The house was as warm as it was in spring. Li Yu put on a crane cloak and went to the back garden. Xing Hua and Granny Chen followed behind. Li Yu looked at the sky and saw that it was covered in dark clouds. She thought that it was going to snow.

Winter arrived, and Li Yu’s belly became even bigger. She couldn’t see her instep even if she lowered her head. She couldn’t lie down at night at all. She could only lie on her side for a while before getting up and leaning against the recliner to sleep for a while.

At night, Zhou Jia saw that she was working hard. His heart ached as he sat up and pulled Li Yu into his arms. He kissed her temple and gently stroked her shoulder. “Yu’er, I’m not busy these days. Lean on me and sleep well.”

Li Yu looked up at him and said gently, “You have to go to the government office so early every day. I can catch up on sleep during the day.”

“Madam, I’m fine. I can take a nap in the public room during the day,” Zhou Jia said gently. The couple leaned against each other and Li Yu fell asleep.

Zhou Jia looked at Li Yu’s tired expression and decided not to have another baby after Li Yu gave birth to this pair of children.

Li Yu leaned against Zhou Jia and slept. When she opened her eyes, she saw him leaning against the head of the bed and looking at her. She smiled and said, “It’S mucn more comrortaD1e arter a nap. Hurry up ana sleep. ‘Ine court meeting is in two hours.”

Seeing that she had woken up, Zhou Jia knew that she was going to relieve herself. Thinking that she had never allowed him to accompany her, he reminded her considerately, “Be careful. I’ll sleep when you come back.”

“Got it.” Li Yu smiled and got out of bed. She walked towards the toilet in the cubicle..
