Not long after she stopped talking, Yu Qizhe put down his pen. The handwriting on the yellow rice paper was clear, restrained and neat. He picked up the prescription with his slender white fingers and handed it to Yu Jiao.
Yu Jiao raised her hand to take it, and her fingertips brushed against Yu Qizhe's fingers, and he quickly withdrew his hand.
Yu Jiao didn't care at first, but his evasive action made her feel a little hurt.
She was not a scourge, so she quietly glared at Yu Qizhe. Yu Jiao handed the prescription to Yu Gancao and reminded him, "Take it before sex. Don't stand up right after sex. It's best to rest in bed for half an hour before washing, or just rest. It's easier to get pregnant two weeks before your period."
Although Yi Gancao was already a married woman, when she heard Yu Jiao mention having sex, she took the prescription with a blushing face.
Yu Jiao continued seriously, "It is easier to get pregnant when the man is on top and the woman is on the bottom, or when entering from behind."
Zhang blushed at these words. She didn't even dare to look at Yu Qizhe and asked vaguely, "How do you, a little girl, know all this?"
Yu Gancao had not expected Yu Jiao to speak so harshly. He was too embarrassed to stay there. He stammered in response and hurriedly pulled Zhang away.
Yu Qizhe's face was slightly red. Looking at Yu Jiao who looked frank, he accused her helplessly, "How can you be so shameless as a woman?"
Yu Jiao was accused without reason. She narrowed her eyes in anger and groaned softly, "You think everyone is like you, a little old-fashioned. It's like a touch of your finger would ruin your innocence. You are so rigid and boring."
Although she was mumbling softly, it was already late at night and the small room was very quiet. Yu Qizhe heard everything. His dark and cold pupils were fixed on Yu Jiao's face like a faint light.
He grabbed Yu Jiao's thin wrist and approached her, with a cold smile on his lips, "Is Yu Jinyan and Yu Zhizhou interesting?"
The frail and thin man who usually looked frail now exuded a dangerous aura. He gripped Yu Jiao's wrist so hard that it hurt. Yu Qizhe's approaching handsome face and breath made her heart tremble. She stepped back and whispered, "You hurt me."
Yu Qizhe lowered his eyes and looked at the thin white wrist in his hand. It was as bright as a jade moon and had warmth. Due to his poor health, his body temperature was always low. Even in summer, his hands and feet were cold.
He loosened his grip, but still held her wrist, refusing to let go. His peach blossom eyes stared at Yu Jiao's eyes, with a cool light in his eyes, like the cold snow in the morning winter. He asked in a deep voice, "Are they interesting?"
Yu Jiao didn't know why he suddenly went crazy. This man was really moody. She frowned and wanted to pull her wrist back, but it was held tightly.
"Who said they were interesting? What they do has nothing to do with me." Yu Jiao's voice was already filled with anger. It seemed that Yu Qizhe was still upset about Meng Yujiao climbing into his bed that day. After all, for a hot-blooded man, this was extremely embarrassing and hurtful to his self-esteem. He had to soften his tone and explain, "I was confused before and believed Yu Zhizhou's instigation, so I did such a brainless thing. Now that things have come to this, there is no way to remedy it. In the future, I will leave the Yu family and will not hinder you in the slightest."
The soft and gentle voice did not improve Yu Qizhe's expression. He raised his eyes and glanced at Yu Jiao. His eyes were deep and bottomless, with candlelight reflected in his pupils, which made his eyebrows stand out. His jade-like face was like the moonlight and the stars, clear and compelling.
"No one forced you to leave," he said calmly.
Yu Jiao snorted coldly and raised her right hand to brush away Yu Qizhe's fingers that were shackled on her wrist. "Why is your Yu family worthy of my staying?"
Yu Qizhe seemed dissatisfied with her words. He still held her wrist tightly and said with a smile, "Don't joke with other men in the future. After all, you are my wife in name only."
After saying this, his face remained normal, but a blush crept up to the tips of his ears. He slowed down his tone and said awkwardly, "Now that I'm holding your hand, I'm not old-fashioned and boring anymore."
Yu Jiao was stunned for a moment, burst out laughing, and suddenly calmed down. It turned out that this guy suddenly behaved like this because of what she said.
The knuckles of the man holding her hand were as white as jade. Although the owner was still young, his hand was much wider than hers. She chuckled and said, "Okay, I was wrong. You are the funniest."
These soothing words made Yu Qizhe look much better. His delicate eyebrows and eyes were less cold, and the corners of his eyes were slightly curved, but his face pretended to be calm.
"Just now you said I was shameless. How can a gentleman behave like you? Let go, I'm going to sleep." Yu Jiao suddenly remembered that the first sentence Yu Qizhe said to her when she woke up that day was to call her shameless. Now she secretly retorted.
"I... I'm not other men, so I'm different." Yu Qizhe's fair face turned slightly red. He let go of Yu Jiao's wrist, turned his back, lowered his eyes and whispered, "You touched me on purpose just now. Now that I've got what you wanted, don't push it any further. We can't sleep."
Yu Jiao didn't expect that he misinterpreted her words in this way. She didn't know what to say for a moment, so she didn't want to touch his hand.
"I never said I wanted to sleep with you. I just want to go back to my room to sleep." Although Yu Jiao loved teasing Yu Qizhe, in her heart, Yu Qizhe was just a teenager. After all, she was living a new life and was not really a little girl of thirteen or fourteen years old.
Yu Jiao walked out of the house.
Yu Qizhe turned around and looked at her back, a faint smile on the corner of his lips and a deep smile in his narrow eyes.
After Yi Gancao and Zhang returned to the west room, they asked in confusion, "Mother, how can the fifth brother's wife know medicine? She is so young, will the prescription work? Otherwise, I'd better ask grandfather to take a look."
Zhang used to look down on Yu Jiao, but now she had to praise her, "Don't look at her young age, her medical skills are much better than your grandfather's. I heard that she studied under a famous doctor in the capital when she was a child. She is a capable person. Your second aunt is lucky to have such a daughter-in-law."
"Didn't my aunt say that her family was so poor that they couldn't even make ends meet? If her medical skills were really as good as you said, how could her family be willing to sell her for someone else's good fortune?" Yu Gancao asked casually.
It is not a year of famine now. No matter how poor the family is, they will just send their children to wealthy families to sign a few years' contract to be maids and servants. The Meng family is so cruel. Meng Yujiao was really sold by her family and has nothing to do with the Meng family from now on.
Zhang didn't know much. At the beginning, the old man believed the sorcerer's words and wanted to bring good luck to Yu Qizhe, so he searched for a girl in the surrounding villages. Coincidentally, he married Yu Huangqi from Mengjia Village. The old lady's biological youngest daughter said that there was a widow in her village whose husband had died and whose life was almost impossible with her two children. The eldest daughter was thirteen years old and gave birth to a beautiful child, who was just right for Yu Qizhe. When they went to her house to inquire, they found out that the widow had actually sold her daughter for four taels of silver.
