371 Moving House (Part 1)

“What?! What makes you think that- Ah!”

As the two of them were arguing, Li Xiangjun, who was behind him, suddenly called out with a trembling voice.

“W-what’s happening?”

Liu Xiangjun saw his sudden change in appearance, looked around to make sure there was no one else around, then quickly clutched her belly.

“My stomach hurts.”

Li Xiangjun could not stand still.

Fang Tianliu’s soul almost flew out of his body, he immediately squatted down and carried her in his arms, and walked home.

His heart was burning with anxiety, but he was also afraid that if he walked too fast, the person in his arms would fall.

“Doctor Sun! Doctor Sun!”

Fang Tianliu carried Li Xiangjun into the courtyard and turned left to look for Doctor Sun.

“Look at her. She was angered by what I said and kept screaming until her stomach started hurting.”

“Hurry up and take her to your room.”

Doctor Sun turned around and went into the room to take some ginseng. He then picked up his medicine box and quickly followed behind Fang Tianliu to take Li Xiangjun’s pulse.

“It’s already a miracle that she held on until now.” Doctor Sun frowned. “Based on her pulse, she will be giving birth at any time. Even if I brew some medicine for her now, it won’t be able to delay the birth for a few days. It’s too late to go to Huai County now. Go next door and ask Dashan’s wife for any reliable midwives. Give them some money and ask them to bring the midwife over.”

Human lives were important.

At this moment, Fang Tianliu had temporarily put all the past behind him and his mind was only filled with Li Xiangjun’s safety.

“Doctor Sun, please take good care of her. I’ll go to the next room to call for someone. I’ll be back as soon as I can!”

“I heard screaming! Is everything okay?” Li Miao appeared at the door in a hurry. She stretched out her neck and looked worriedly at Li Xiangjun who was lying on the bed. “I saw you carrying Miss Li back from my front door just now. She looked like she was in a lot of pain! What’s wrong with her, is she okay?”

“Before Jiaojiao left, she asked me to help pay attention to the situation at her home. Is there anything I can help with?”

“Thank goodness, you came at the right time.”

Fang Tianliu took out his pouch and looked for a long time to see that there were no pieces of silver in it. He ended up taking out a silver note and handed it to Li Miao. “Take this. I’ll have to trouble you to help me get a midwife to stay here until Xiangjun gives birth. The rest of the money from hiring a midwife can be considered my reward to you.”

Li Miao glanced at the silver note and pushed it back. “What are you doing? It does not cost that much money to hire a midwife? Keep the silver note. I’ll go back and get Dashan to hire someone for you. I don’t have time to waste arguing with you right now.”

“Wait-”

Before Fang Tianliue could give the money, Li Miao had already waved her hand and turned to leave.

Doctor Sun had already performed acupuncture on Li Xiangjun and checked her pulse. When he saw that she had fallen asleep, he got up and called Fang Tianliu out of the room.

“Miss Li’s body is weak and she has to lie in bed for most of the day to recuperate. Why did you want to take her out today? This is simply nonsense.”

“Doctor Sun, I…”

“It’s fine if you didn’t know, but Miss Li clearly knows her own situation, yet she still wants to take everything lightly!”

Doctor Sun was so angry that he flicked his sleeves and glared at Fang Tianliu. “Since things have come to this, there’s no use in blaming you. Miss Li is about to give birth. Are you sure you want her to stay in the backyard?”

“Why can’t she? She’s used to living far away. Even if she has a child, it’s a good thing for her to have Madam Qin in the backyard.” Fang Tianliu asked in confusion. “If you’re worried that Madam Qin will be unhappy, don’t worry, Doctor Sun. I am not short of money to compensate for the losses.”

“I’m not referring to this!”

Doctor Sun snorted heavily, turned his head to look at the room, and then lowered his voice. “Miss Li has to go through confinement after giving birth. This woman can’t afford to lose more vitality during confinement.”

“Jiaojiao and Madam Qin have to take care of Zhao Nian. Even though they won’t neglect Miss Li, it’s only natural that they can’t be present when they’re busy.

“What’s more, although Miss Li’s temperament has changed greatly, she is still very stubborn and doesn’t like to trouble others. If she doesn’t say anything and then tries to be strong, she will end up having some kind of illness that can’t be fixed in the future.”
