"She...she's very cute, and very smart."
Xia Jinqing made no secret of his love for Xia Zhiliao. He found it hard to describe how unique this little niece was.
And there’s no way to tell this to anyone else.
"I see that she is very close to you, which means you are also very good to her."
Ye Qiao felt that people who could get along well with children would not have bad character.
Xia Jinqing smiled, "She is very nice to me too."
Otherwise, how could I hear her thoughts?
But Xia Jinqing didn't dare to say this.
After the two siblings of the Xia family left, Xia Hai asked curiously, "Sister, that beautiful aunt just now, could she be our future fifth aunt?"
[My third brother is so smart, he figured it all out.]
Xia Hai smiled secretly, feeling very happy when being praised by the little sister.
"Don't say that, Uncle Wu will be angry."
"I think so. Uncle Wu didn't even tell him his real name, and he lied to him. Hehe, Uncle Wu is really cunning."
Ye Qiao is indeed Xia Jinqing's wife in the novel, but because of her appearance, many things have changed, and Xia Jinqing's circumstances have also changed accordingly. Unexpectedly, the two of them got together again like this.
It’s quite interesting.
It seems that some things can be changed, but some cannot.
Thinking of this, she began to worry, wondering what the fate of her aunt would be.
It’s a pity that the little aunt doesn’t have anyone she likes, otherwise she would have gotten engaged first and not given the old emperor a chance to make a move. It would be difficult for him to make a move on someone who is already engaged, right?
At first, Xia Jinqing thought that Ye Qiao was very capable as a girl and admired her from the bottom of her heart. She thought that for a young girl like her to be working in such a big clinic, her medical skills must be amazing.
After getting to know her, he discovered more of Ye Qiao's strengths. If he really liked her, he was naturally attracted to her.
But while others are shining like stars, he has achieved nothing and is far behind his brothers in the family.
Even though the Xia family is now known by many people in the capital, it has nothing to do with him after all, so he still plans to learn something first and then talk about it later.
Besides, he had no idea what was going on with the girl now. A girl like this would probably have a lot of people vying to marry her.
But the opposite is true.
Not only did no one propose to Ye Qiao, but the family she was engaged to also disliked her and broke off the engagement because she was always out in public treating poor people.
But Ye Qiao is a girl who will never look back once she has made up her mind. Although she looks pretty and has a gentle personality, she is actually a very persistent person at heart.
The Liang family canceled the engagement, and she didn't think she had done anything wrong.
With all her talents, why should she be confined to the backyard and follow her husband around all day?
She could recite prescriptions at the age of three and had learned from her father for more than ten years. Curing illnesses and saving lives has been her ambition since she was a child. Is she going to give up for a man who has a prejudice against her?
After knowing that Xia Jinqing was studying medicine here, Xia Zhiliao would come over to visit when she was free, after all, this place was very close to the princess.
Every time she comes, she can get some delicious food. Of course, it’s not that she can’t afford it, but she just thinks what her uncle buys tastes better.
As she came more often, Ye Qiao would buy her delicious food. Xia Jinqing sighed, and couldn't help laughing when she saw her little niece, who was rich, jumping for joy for a piece of snack.
It has to be said that Xia Zhiliao does have some abilities, at least in Xia Jinqing's opinion. Not only did she not let anything slip, but she also hid it very well.
That day, the little girl was sitting on the counter of the pharmacy eating, while Xia Jinqing was busy prescribing medicine for the patient according to the prescription given by Ye Qiao.
Suddenly, a woman came into the shop. She was not very old, but she was dressed like a married woman.
Xia Zhiliao took a look and the woman's eyes swept around the shop. After seeing Ye Qiao, she curled her lips.
[Why do I feel that this woman has bad intentions? ]
Xia Jinqing was slightly startled, and then saw the woman walking straight towards Ye Qiao.
"Miss Ye, what a coincidence."
Ye Qiao saw the person coming and said expressionlessly, "Are you sick?"
"Why are you swearing?" the woman said loudly.
Ye Qiao has never been a pushover. "How can you say that? This is a clinic. You came here because you are sick. Are you here to reminisce about the past? There is nothing to talk about between us, right?"
[What a powerful mouth. I admire you. 】
This Ye Qiao is indeed the same as in the novel.
There are not many girls in this era who can stick to their dreams. How can they be pushed aside?
"I'm not sick, but I haven't had my period for two months. I want you to see if I'm pregnant?"
She seemed to want to see Ye Qiao's angry look, but Ye Qiao pointed to the back and said, "Get in line. When did Wu, the imperial physician, who is the best among the younger generation in the Imperial Hospital, not even know how to check if the lady is pregnant? How can he take care of the nobles in the palace?"
[It turns out that this is the wife that Ye Qiao's ex-fiancé married. She is here to demonstrate.]
Xia Jinqing frowned. It turned out that she was engaged, but why didn't she get married?
Although she was curious, now was definitely not the time to ask this.
"My husband is very busy, and I also wanted to share my joy with Miss Ye Qiao."
Ye Qiao glanced at her and retorted directly, "Are you okay? This child is mine? Why should I be happy? I think I need treatment for my brain."
Xia Zhiliao grinned, this woman really didn't have a good brain.
But the fighting power of the future Fifth Aunt is no joke.
The woman's face turned red after being criticized, "Ms. Ye is also an old acquaintance of my husband."
"No, although we are engaged, we have never met."
"Ms. Ye, don't be sad..."
"Which eye of yours saw me sad? I can't wait to be happy. You're the only one who thinks a man like that is good."
The woman waited for him unhappily. After she sat down, she stretched out her hand.
Ye Qiao took a deep breath and said, "From what I know, you have been married for two months, but how come you are already three months pregnant? This is really strange."
Getting pregnant before marriage is not a big deal in modern times, but in ancient times, it was a question of character.
If this gets out of hand, the man might even lose his official position.
Having physical contact with someone before getting married.
"Don't talk nonsense, it's impossible."
Her husband said at that time that it was obvious that she would not get pregnant.
Ye Qiao curled his lips, "Ouch, sorry, I misread it."
Xia Zhiliao chuckled.
The woman glared at Xia Zhiliao, "Whose child is this? What are you laughing at?"
Before Xia Zhiliao could say anything, Ye Qiao was unhappy, "Why do you care about the heavens and the earth? Do you care whether people cry or laugh?"
Xia Zhiliao nodded. It felt really good to be protected.
"She is pregnant, two months." Ye Qiao withdrew his hand.
At this time, a man walked in, frowning slightly, "Why are you here? Didn't you say you wanted to eat preserved fruit?"
When the woman saw the man, she immediately smiled and said, "I saw Miss Ye here, so I came to see her."
