Chapter 93 Rescuing the Baby
One person firmly stood by the viewpoint he had heard: "She must have run away with a man. This is what Genzi told my husband herself."
"She's a woman, she goes out to earn money and sends it back?"
"How can a woman make money in this world? With her looks, she can't make money even if she sells herself."
"That money must have been earned by Genzi himself. I don't know who spread the rumor that it was sent back by his wife."
At first I thought it was Ah Yu who earned the money, but I was actually convinced. How can a woman make money in this world?
"It is really infuriating to see a girl born to a woman who ran away with a man."
"It's understandable that he threw it away. Maybe it wasn't even his."
"You're a soft-hearted person. If you let him go to my house, he would drown to death."
They looked at the lively and cheerful atmosphere in the house and couldn't help but envy, "Zhao Di is such a lucky girl!"
"Look at how generous Genzi is. They are holding a wedding and are even eating meat today."
"I heard that her family gave ten taels of silver as a betrothal gift!"
Another person bumped into her and said, "She looks like a vixen. If you change to another woman, will she be willing to give you her dick?"
The people who were making noise in the bridal chamber left, and only the two newlyweds were left in the room.
Zhaodi leaned on Genzi's arms and thought of something: "Should we burn down the abandoned baby tower today? We just threw the little girl in there during the day, so maybe she didn't have time to starve to death?"
The fat man had a lustful look on his face as he rubbed the woman's skin and said, "Zhao Di, today is a good day for the two of us. Let's not talk about that money-loser."
"Come on, let me smell it."
"Hate~dead ghost~"
Mama Yu traveled day and night and returned to the familiar small village again. She had no time to reminisce about the scenery around her and ran towards the abandoned baby tower in the village.
Nannan.
Is Nannan still alive?
A Niang is here to save you!
The gray little tower in front has killed countless weak lives that have no power to resist.
Very gloomy.
Ah Yu used to be reluctant to get close to this place. Just looking at it made him feel like he was being entangled by something.
A man was throwing a bunch of dead branches in, accompanied by a hoarse "Stop!"
He held the torch and threw it onto the pile of dead branches.
A woman came running towards them, and the man who lit the fire thought he had seen a ghost in the middle of the night, so he shouted for help and ran away.
The "female ghost" did not chase him, but instead dived into the fire like a moth to a flame, and carried out the baby girl who was crying because of the thick smoke.
While holding her, Ah Yu's hands inevitably touched other corpses.
Some of them have already rotted and the pulp has flowed out.
Because of the firelight, she saw maggots crawling on it.
There was not even a swaddle or a blanket.
"Wow--"
"Wow--"
The baby girl cried in her arms, but because she had been hungry for a day, she had no strength left and could only cry in a mosquito-like voice.
The child is very thin and doesn't look like an eight-month-old baby at all.
Ah Yu couldn't help but think of the princess he was taking care of.
His fat arms were like lotus root nodes, and when he was unhappy he howled so loudly that His Majesty had to cover his ears.
That's what a healthy child should look like.
She thought her daughter was the man's biological daughter, and that he and his grandparents would take good care of the child.
I didn’t expect it. I didn’t expect it.
Now she knows that she is her child's only support.
If the little princess had not been a fairy, her daughter would have been burned to death tonight.
Ah Yu untied her belt and fed her daughter.
The baby seemed to be very hungry and drank the drink quickly.
But she was worried that something was wrong with her body, and now the city gates were under curfew, so A Yu could only carry her to find the barefoot doctor in the village.
I knocked for a long time before the doctor opened the door.
"What's wrong so late at night?"
No lights are turned on in the village at night. Candles are expensive and ordinary people cannot even afford oil lamps, so they go to bed at night.
The doctor was woken up by her and was obviously resentful.
"Doctor, my daughter was thrown into the abandoned baby tower. When I went to pick her up, she was already burning. She smelled the smoke. Please check if she is okay."
Ah Yu said this and touched her forehead.
"Oh no, I'm already running a fever."
The doctor said coldly, "Come in."
As the doctor led them in, he said sarcastically, "Now you are willing to give it up."
The fact that they are willing to spend money on their children's medical treatment proves that they can afford to raise them, and they still want to abandon the baby tower.
This mother is really weird. She regrets throwing something away after all.
A doctor has a kind heart.
Although he had seen many separations and deaths, he still had no good face when facing such parents who had damaged their karma.
Ah Yu followed behind with her daughter in her arms, thinking that the doctor had heard about their family's story and was talking about how she abandoned her daughter to become a wet nurse and was now willing to come back.
She lowered her head and said nothing.
Turn on the light after entering the house.
"Put it here." His tone was still stiff.
After the doctor finished his examination, he said, "Let's go to the city to find a better doctor tomorrow. All I can tell is that you have caught a cold."
"But you're probably reluctant to spend this money, right?"
Ah Yu retorted: "This is my daughter. How can I be reluctant to spend money to treat her illness?"
Especially since the palace salary is generous, plus the princess's full-month and hundred-day bonuses, it's even more."
"She had been thinking of saving money, so that if the kingdom was really destroyed, she could run away with the princess and keep half of the money.
If I bring them all back this time, I will probably be the richest man in the village.
The doctor snorted and laughed, without making any comment.
He boiled some herbs and was about to feed them to the baby.
Ah Yu stopped him.
"What are you doing?"
"Are you reluctant to spend money again? Don't you want to treat your daughter's illness?"
"I'm telling you, I've already prepared the medicine. Whether she drinks it or not, I'm going to charge her!"
With this said, those parents who are reluctant to spend money will think that since the money has been spent, it might be a waste if the child doesn't drink the medicine, and will not stop him from giving the medicine to his child.
Ah Yu was stunned and explained, "It's not that I don't want to part with my money, but babies have weak spleens and stomachs. Even if the medicine is mild, it will still be very strong for babies."
"Isn't it bad for the baby to feed it directly like this?"
This is what the imperial physician said when the princess was taking medicine. Babies cannot drink medicine directly.
