Chapter 1175 Help
Fu Wenyun sighed, "How many men in this world can put themselves in a woman's shoes? Look at my father, he's a rare good man in this world, but didn't my mother say that she had a lot of quarrels with him when she was young?"
Qiuyue wiped away her tears and went out to bring her some freshly cooked noodles in soup. As she fed her, she said, "Who said there wasn't any? Mr. Bai, who came with Miss Man, rushed in to protect her all the way and even had a big fuss outside."
She said, "Why do you think she suddenly stopped trying to stop Doctor Tao and the others? It's because Master Bai got angry and said that if she continued to make trouble, he would report her to the authorities. He'll see if the bailiffs come over and see if the master's job is still stable tomorrow."
"What about murdering your daughter-in-law? I didn't quite understand what they said. But the old lady was so scared that she didn't dare to stop us. I brought the medicine in."
Fu Wenyun reluctantly ate a few chopsticks of noodles and said with a smile: "You still don't understand, but I think you understand it very well."
"I am just a parrot."
"Even a parrot can mimic human speech, but you still can't understand these words?" Fu Wenyun chuckled and said, "All these years of teaching you were in vain."
Qiuyue then stuck out her tongue, picked up a chopstick of noodles and advised: "Miss, please eat more. Miss Man said that you have to eat, otherwise you will lose money."
"They also said that we must take good care of ourselves during the confinement period, otherwise we will suffer from many diseases in the future," Qiuyue whispered, "So, this is what I want to do. Let them deal with the outside world. We will take care of the young master in the house, provide him with food and drink, and not worry about anything else. Let him complete the confinement period first."
Fu Wenyun raised the corner of her mouth and said, "I know, this is not the time to settle accounts."
Qiuyue heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this, but her eyes couldn't help but turn red again, "I'm glad that Miss can figure it out."
Fu Wenyun took two more bites, but couldn't eat any more. She pushed the bowl away and asked, "Where's Mammy?"
"I'm going to see Miss Man off. Mammy said that we're unfamiliar with the capital, and the midwife was hired by her. We can't rely on her to hire doctors from now on. Miss Man came to the capital earlier than us, and she's a famous little doctor there. She must know a lot of doctors. It would be great if she could come and treat us herself. If she can't come, it would be fine to ask her to recommend two doctors."
Fu Wenyun nodded, supporting herself with Qiuyue's hand and lying down on the pillow. She was really in pain and tired, so she only whispered, "Take good care of my dowry. Make sure to raise the child in my room. As for the rest, let them do whatever they want."
Qiuyue murmured "yes", and when she looked up, she saw Fu Wenyun closing her eyes and falling into a deep sleep.
Qiuyue smoothed the corner of the quilt for her before going out. Seeing the midwife still holding the child and coaxing him, she smiled and went forward to take it. Then she called a little girl over and said, "Mother-in-law, how can you be so naive? Our wife has already given birth, and it's a little master. For such a happy occasion, why don't you go to the main room to congratulate the old lady and ask for a reward?"
Then he said to the little girl, "Quick, take mother-in-law to ask for a reward, and then ask the kitchen to prepare a good feast to send her home."
The little girl also lived in their room. She agreed with a smile and helped the midwife away.
Qiuyue held the child and watched them walk away, then she snorted coldly.
Nanny Fu sent Manbao to the carriage and watched the carriage leave the alley before returning. Qiuyue saw that Chuncao was not behind her and asked, "Where is Chuncao?"
"I sent her with Miss Man," Nanny Fu took the child and said softly, "Do you dare to accept the wet nurse hired over there? I'm afraid she'll take the child and then send him back to the main house. So I asked Miss Man to introduce a few wet nurses and let Chuncao go with her to see them."
Qiuyue was stunned. "Chuncao will choose?"
"Chuncao doesn't know how to do that. She'll go and take note of the people first. I'll choose one after I've sorted out my family affairs." Nanny Fu felt that she didn't have enough manpower and sighed, "The Second Young Lady should have brought a few more housekeepers with her to the capital. We wouldn't be short of manpower now."
"How are we going to accommodate a few more people in such a narrow yard?" Qiuyue murmured in dissatisfaction, "Just because the young lady brought a few more of us, she's nagging that the young lady should pay half the price for the house. Bah, the son-in-law still has the nerve to say that he can't use the daughter-in-law's dowry. You should keep your word."
"Shut up, you won't say these words in front of the lady, right?"
Qiuyue lied: "I didn't say that."
Nanny Fu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good that you didn't say anything. The young lady doesn't like her husband to begin with. If you continue to say these things... As a couple, they should still respect and love each other."
Manbao got off the car again in front of Jishiditang. The shopkeeper Zheng was lazily directing Xiaoshao to prepare some medicine for the pills. When he saw her, he was startled and sat up straight, asking, "It's just a contraceptive pill. I said I'd make it for you tomorrow. Why did you come here in person?"
Manbao ran forward with a smile on his face to try to establish a relationship with him. "It's been a while since I last saw the shopkeeper. Did you miss me?"
"Didn't you just see him this morning when you came to the pharmacy to get medicine?"
Bai Shan behind him couldn't help laughing.
Manager Zheng was no fool. He understood immediately and said, "Alright, alright. Just tell me what's going on."
Manbao squatted beside him and asked, "Boss, do you know any wet nurses in the capital?"
Shopkeeper Zheng asked curiously, "Why are you asking this?"
Manbao pointed at Chuncao, who was standing timidly at the door, and said, "A friend of mine has given birth, and the wet nurse we hired previously is no longer suitable, so we'd like to hire a new one, preferably one who has recently given birth."
As soon as Doctor Tao returned to the pharmacy, he went to the lounge to wash up. His hair was messed up from being pulled, and his face was almost bleeding. He described the fierceness of the Yue family to his colleagues in the pharmacy.
So, the shopkeeper Zheng understood it as soon as he thought about it. He smiled and said, "I really do know him. Just wait."
Shopkeeper Zheng went out and called a clerk, asking him to fetch Old Madam Dou. Then he went back and said to Manbao, "As for a wet nurse, we can just find a midwife. Aunt Dou, who often comes to our pharmacy, used to be a midwife. She's old now and doesn't do it anymore, but she knows a lot of people. If there's a suitable wet nurse, we can just ask her."
Coincidentally, Manbao also knew Old Lady Dou. Not only had her granddaughter Dou Zhuer been her patient, but now her nephew Shi Dalang was also her patient.
When she heard that Manbao was looking for a reliable wet nurse, she immediately slapped her thigh and said, "Young Doctor Zhou's sisters, I must introduce the best. I actually have two suitable ones here."
She said, "One is three months old and has plenty of milk. It's her third child. Her family is short of money, so she can live directly with the host. The other one is only about twenty days old and has plenty of milk, but she loves her own child and wants to feed both of them at the same time."
See you at four in the afternoon?
I actually made it into the monthly ticket list last month. Although I was ranked 14th, I was so happy, hahahahahaha
