Chapter 410 "This is a child of our Li family!"
(Thanks to coye for casting a monthly vote.)
The Li family was immersed in the joy of the arrival of a new life. On the grassland on the other side of Daheishan Mountain, She'er and his biological mother, Taliha, sat in their tent with a lamp lit, looking at each other.
It was past midnight, and the grassland was already getting cold.
However, She'er, sitting inside the tent, did not feel the cold at this moment. On the day Li Shiyue and the others left the Turkic royal court, he went straight to his maternal uncle's pasture.
Although he already knew from Li Shiyue that his cousin Helu had taken 40% of the wealth and people obtained from the Mohe tribe back to his maternal uncle's house.
But this is ultimately not as real as when he actually saw those gold and silver utensils in person.
Sher, who had stayed at his maternal uncle's pasture for less than a day, rode back to the Turkic royal court with his men overnight.
Tariha pushed a plate of something resembling fried dough sticks toward Sher before asking, "Did Heluko say anything else?"
Sher was chewing away with gusto when he heard Tariha ask that question.
As he chewed, he recalled the sentence that He Lu had repeatedly emphasized to him after they met.
"Li Shiyue made me find all the nobles, and she didn't even spare the children who weren't even as tall as a cartwheel. She killed them all on the spot in front of everyone!"
After He Lu said this, he looked at She'er, who didn't seem to care, and said again: "They Han people have never forgotten that we are the northern barbarians in their mouths!"
Your Highness!
future......"
Sher recalled how he had spoken to Helu back then.
He said, "That's all for the future, we'll talk about it later!"
He Lu, tell me quickly how you all...
"She'er? She'er?"
Hearing Taliha's louder shout, Sher finally snapped out of his reverie.
He smiled and looked at Tariha: "Mother, he just said that Li Shiyue is ruthless. They killed a lot of people in the Blackwater Tribe, and that's all."
Li Shiyue is a woman of her word; she kept all the spoils we had agreed upon.
He Lu also said that they were able to catch up with Bu Zhen's men only because of Li Shiyue.
Mother, I came tonight not to talk about Li Shiyue.
"Um?"
"I want to talk to Mother about Xie Mingyue!"
She secretly agreed with...
While Taliha and Sher were still discussing something in the tent, Li Shiyue's house was bustling with activity.
In the middle of the night, Erdan's mother, Zhou Lanhua, Zhao Min, and Zhao Yan arrived one after another, each carrying a basket.
Seeing them helping her family with all the chores, Li Shiyue could only stand awkwardly in the yard with Li Qiutian and call out to the house.
"...Sister? Is there anything you'd like to eat?"
"Just tell me what you want to eat, and I'll definitely get it for you, Sister!"
"Shut up right now!"
Li's mother pushed open the door and looked at Li Shiyue, who was shouting loudly outside, with a look of disgust.
Li's mother stepped aside, and Jin Daping, carrying his medical kit, came out of the house.
He stroked his beard and smiled as he said to Li Shiyue, who was standing outside with her shoulders hunched, "Li Niangzi is already asleep from exhaustion, so it's best not to make any noise."
Upon entering the courtyard, Li Shiyue, with remarkable acumen, stepped forward and "snatched" the medical kit from Jin Daping's hands. Jin Daping paused for a moment, then smiled and headed towards the stone table.
He's getting old, and after staying up all night, he's really starting to feel unsteady on his feet.
After seeing Jin Daping sit down, Li Shiyue, who had put down her medical kit, quickly poured him a glass of water and handed it to him.
After drinking the water, Jin Daping looked up and immediately met the eyes of Li Shiyue and Li Qiutian, who had already walked over. He cleared his throat and said to the two of them, "Li Niangzi has always been healthy. Although she lost some blood and energy during childbirth, she will be fine after a proper postpartum period."
"The two children, the older daughter is a bit bigger, I just saw them. The younger son's cry is a bit weak, but if we raise him carefully, he'll be no different from anyone else in the future."
After hearing Jin Daping's words, Li Shiyue and Li Qiutian finally felt at ease.
"Dr. Jin, if you have any good prescriptions for replenishing qi and blood, please use them."
No matter how precious the medicinal herbs are, the Li family is rich!
And my little nephew, from now on we'll have to rely on Dr. Jin for him.”
Jin Daping stayed at the Li family's house for a while longer, and only after confirming that Li Xiatian was really alright was Li Shiyue personally escorting him home.
At the same time, Li Qiutian also rode his horse out of the village and onto the official road.
A while later, Ma San received a message from one of his soldiers. He looked at the soldier and asked, "Do you know why she went out at this time?"
"I asked around and was told that Li Xiatian had already given birth and was going to Jiangjia Village to find Jiang Huai to go home."
Upon hearing the soldier's words, Ma San recalled what Li Shiyue had said earlier.
After waving his hand and watching the messenger leave, Ma San went back into the side hall.
As soon as he entered, Liu Tan looked at him.
Ma San walked to Liu Tan's side and leaned down to listen to Liu Tan's ear, when Liu Tan said, "It's alright, Seventeen is not an outsider, just speak freely."
Thus, Ma San straightened up and said, "General, go down and report that Li Qiutian rode out of the village and headed towards Jiangjia Village."
It must be just as Li Shiyue said before, that she went to find Jiang Huai.
Also, Madam Li should have already given birth.
Upon hearing this, Liu Tan recalled that when he last returned to the General's Mansion, Jiang Huijun, who was in charge of household affairs, had mentioned that there seemed to be an elder in the Jiang family who was seriously ill.
As dawn broke, Li Shiyue, who hadn't slept all night, still looked full of energy.
She had already taken a shower and changed into clean clothes.
She carried a bowl of meat porridge containing five chickens into the house. "Sister, are you hungry?"
"Sister-in-law Min made you some meat porridge with eggs in it. Shall I feed you?"
Leaning against the pile of quilts, Li Shiyue fed Li Xiatian meat porridge spoonful by spoonful, and occasionally crushed the chicken into small pieces for Li Xiatian to eat.
"My older sister gave birth to twins, and my mother and aunt meant that my older sister should have a double postpartum period."
Is there anything else you'd like to eat, sister?
This time I brought back a lot of good stuff from the grasslands. Whatever my sister wants to eat, we can buy it for her!
Looking up, Li Shiyue saw Li Xiatian looking back and forth, and said to her, "Sister Qiutian was called by her mother to go find her brother-in-law."
Even at top speed, it would probably be tomorrow before they return.
Li Shiyue said, "Why bother looking for Jiang Huai? My wife isn't by my side during childbirth. Even if someone in the Jiang family dies, so what?"
If he's not by Li Xiatian's side, then he's simply not there!
However, Li Shiyue would naturally not say such a thing in front of Li Xiatian.
“Hey, sister, speaking of brother-in-law, my sister and I have already thought of a few names for our nephew and niece. When brother-in-law comes back, you can choose one together.”
This is a child from our Li family!
My sister and I discussed it for a long time before deciding on it!
We spent a long time flipping through the book of "Shuowen Jiezi" that my second uncle left at home, even by lamplight!
