The next day.
Wei Ziang and Xu Jue went to the provincial school, and Wei Ziyi went to the academy, leaving only Sanbao and Du Xiaobai as the family's two children.
After Tang Li finished his work, he took his two children to the house of Shopkeeper Hua.
After Zhuo Shu was admitted to the provincial school, the shopkeeper Hua also moved his family to Qinghe County. The Hua family and the Wei residence were not far apart, and Tang Li could reach them in just a few steps.
Tangli knocked on the door and it opened quickly.
Shopkeeper Hua also bought a large house with two entrances and two exits. He also bought two servants and lived a good life.
Tang Li walked through the gate and into the yard, and saw two people basking in the sun in the yard. They were Zhuo's father and mother.
Two years ago, Shopkeeper Hua brought Zhuo's father and mother to Hedong County. Initially, Zhuo's father disapproved of the move. He didn't want to burden others, and felt that living with Zhuo Shu and Shopkeeper Hua would be a burden to them. However, unable to resist Zhuo Shu's constant nagging, and because he truly loved Zhuo Shu, Zhuo's father relented and moved in.
After two years together, Zhuo Dad and Shopkeeper Hua gradually became a family, like father and daughter. Zhuo Dad often lamented that his decision to adopt Zhuo Shu was a perfect one, as he had a son and a daughter, the son proving incredibly successful. His neighbors were incredibly jealous. When Zhuo Dad occasionally returned to the village, they would hide in their homes, too embarrassed to see him.
Zhuo's father was quite pleased with the situation. The villagers looked down on him, saying his family had a cripple and a lunatic. Aside from a few relatives, no one dared approach his family for fear of getting tainted by dirt. Now, his life was so good; he'd been brought to the city, his son was filial, and he lived better than anyone else, which was a real relief.
In the past two years, Manager Hua has also found many doctors to help treat Zhuo's mother. Zhuo's mother's condition has gradually stabilized and the frequency of her illness has decreased a lot.
When Dad Zhuo was bored, he would do some handicrafts and spend time with his child's mother in the sun. This was a life he had never dared to imagine, but now it has become a reality.
Life was good, clothes were nice, and Zhuo's father and mother looked like they were a dozen years younger.
Dad Zhuo looked at Tangli and greeted him warmly.
"Xiaotang, here I come."
"Uncle Zhuo, Aunt Zhuo." Tang Li called.
Aunt Zhuo smiled at Tangli, and her smile was somewhat gentle.
"Looking for Xia'er? She's in the yard." Aunt Zhuo said.
Tang Li nodded and took the two children into the inner yard.
In the inner courtyard, a charming woman with a face as beautiful as a lotus was lazily cracking melon seeds. It was the shopkeeper Hua.
Shopkeeper Hua has changed a bit compared to two years ago. She has become more mature and has a rosy complexion. The biggest change is her bulging belly.
——Shopkeeper Hua is pregnant.
Now is the third month of Shopkeeper Hua's pregnancy, and her belly is already a little bulging.
Because she was pregnant, Tang Li always felt that Hua Zhanggui was much gentler than before, and was shrouded in a layer of maternal glow.
When Shopkeeper Hua saw Tangli, he was delighted and waved to Tangli immediately.
"Tangtang, come quickly."
Tangli walked over with the two children and sat down opposite the shopkeeper Hua.
"I'm so bored, come and talk to me." said the shopkeeper Hua.
Shopkeeper Hua is having a severe pregnancy reaction and cannot go to the inn to take care of the business, so she has to stay at home.
Shopkeeper Hua's eyes fell on Sanbao and he waved at him.
Sanbao stood up and sat down beside her obediently.
Shopkeeper Hua touched the little guy all over.
"Be more caring, and then the little one in my belly will be as cute and caring as Sanbao." Shopkeeper Hua said.
Shopkeeper Hua dreams of having a daughter as well-behaved as Sanbao.
Sanbao then obediently let her knead and round him.
Tangli chatted with Shopkeeper Hua about some personal matters.
"Cao Ji has been extremely busy lately and has no time to rest. I don't know if he can come back early tonight." Shopkeeper Hua muttered.
"Sister, since you miss him so much, why not let Cao Ji stay at home with you every day?" Tang Li said.
Cao Ji now works under the county magistrate as the military chief, in charge of the county's garrison troops and responsible for part of the county's city defense.
Cao Ji is a wife slave. If Manager Hua said a word, he might really give up his official position and stay at home with her.
"Forget it. It's really annoying to have a big dog hanging around in front of me all day long." Shopkeeper Hua said with disdain.
Although Manager Hua expressed disdain, he actually wanted Cao Ji to have his own career.
Cao Ji loves her and values her more than anything else, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have ambition. Men always want to achieve success in their careers.
Cao Ji has given so much for her, and she also has to think about him.
The best thing is to be able to balance family and career. Just like now.
"Madam, Doctor Su is here." The servant came to report.
After hearing the report, Tang Li and Shopkeeper Hua stood up together and left the inner courtyard.
In the outer courtyard, Doctor Su and Madam Su were both there, and Doctor Su was treating Aunt Zhuo.
Mrs. Su and Dr. Su came just a month ago.
They originally stayed in Qinzhou City for nearly three years, practicing medicine and saving lives.
After hearing that Tangli's family moved to Qinghe County, the two of them became interested.
They had moved to Qinzhou City to avoid Gu Ying's pursuit. The distance between Qinghe County and Yaoshui Town was roughly the same as that between Qinzhou City and Yaoshui Town, so both places were equally safe. Because Tangli was in Qinghe County, and Madam Su missed her, she discussed it with Doctor Su and decided to move to Qinghe County.
Doctor Su's medical skills were superb, better than the best doctors in Qinghe County, so Shopkeeper Hua quickly invited him to treat Aunt Zhuo.
After more than half a month, Aunt Zhuo's condition improved a lot. She took her medicine on time and hadn't had an attack for more than ten days.
At this time, Doctor Su was checking Aunt Zhuo's condition.
Du Xiaobai saw Doctor Su treating a patient, so he hurried over and looked into Doctor Su's medicine box curiously.
"Since you are so interested, why not follow your uncle Su to study medicine?" Mrs. Su said with a smile.
Du Xiaobai opened his eyes wide, rolling around as he thought about this matter seriously.
My sister gets injured when she practices martial arts. If he knew medicine, he could stop her from getting hurt...
Madam Su walked towards Tang Li and Shopkeeper Hua.
He first touched Sanbao's head, then touched Tangli's head, then looked at Shopkeeper Hua and asked about her pregnancy.
The three of them chatted for a while, and then Shopkeeper Hua started vomiting again.
Tang Li poured her some water and brought her a towel, taking care of her from head to toe.
Seeing that her condition had improved a little, he helped her into the bedroom and laid her down. He only came out after she was well.
Mrs. Su was waiting for her outside, as if she had something to say to her.
Mrs. Su had actually kept this in her heart for a long time, and was hesitant about whether to ask. If she didn't ask, she felt that it was Tang Li's private matter. However, if she didn't ask, she would always feel a little worried.
"Sister-in-law, just tell me what you want to say." Tang Li said with a smile.
