Chapter 200 Something strange is happening in front of me
Zhao Jingcheng was almost frightened when he heard this. He immediately lowered his eyes and said with his back straight, "Although I can't give you anything now, as long as you give me time, I will definitely give you the life you want."
"Also, my family is now in exile, but there are many people in the capital working for our family. It won't be long before my father is still the Minister of War."
"When I regain my status, I will ask for permission to come here and guard it. By then, I will be the highest-ranking official here!"
He paused and continued, "The North has never been valued. The emperor is far away, and I am the emperor here."
He dared to say this, which shows that there are really people working hard for them.
Su Nuan rolled her eyes and immediately said flatteringly, "Really? You will be the highest official here?"
Seeing her attitude change, Zhao Jingcheng immediately became proud, "Of course, you are my woman now, and in the future you will be the most distinguished woman here."
"In the future, I will wear gold and silver and eat delicacies from land and sea, so you should be nice to me now."
Su Nuan nodded, "Well, I will treat you well."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Cheng Feng and said, "Brother, arrange the best house for her and make sure she is well taken care of."
Cheng Feng happily watched Su Nuan's performance. He nodded and said, "Okay, I understand. Come, take Mr. Zhao to rest."
The soldier outside came in and said with a smile, "Please come in, Mr. Zhao."
Zhao Jingcheng walked out with the soldiers with his head held high. When he reached the table, he reached out and took a bag of dried meat before leaving.
Su Nuan pursed her lips, touched her chin, and said, "There are still people in the capital working for the Zhao family. What do you think is the hope?"
Cheng Feng had just returned from the capital. He thought for a moment and said, "The capital is in chaos right now. The emperor only cares about money, not people. If we give enough money, it's not impossible for the Zhao family to be reinstated."
Su Nuan pondered for a moment and asked, "Did the emperor deal with the Zhao family because he wanted their money?"
Cheng Feng nodded, "Ninety percent of it is. The smarter wealthy families in the capital have already fled, and many of the remaining wealthy officials have been punished and exiled to various places."
"I know this Zhao family has some connection with you. You must want to keep an eye on them, so I spent some money to smooth things over and put them in my team."
"The Emperor said exile, but he didn't specify a specific location, otherwise I wouldn't be able to bring it here even if I spent money."
Su Nuan's eyes lit up and she smiled, "Thank you, big brother."
Cheng Feng waved his hand and said, "Still being polite to my brother. Let's go and see your sister-in-law."
As soon as he stood up, someone outside the door said anxiously: "Cousin, cousin's wife is about to give birth."
Cheng Feng didn't dare to delay and left with Su Nuan.
Su Nuan took the opportunity to take out some medicine from the space and put it in her bag.
They came to the house at the corner of the yard. It was a house with two rooms connected together, so the space was quite large.
As soon as you enter the door, you will be hit by hot air, which shows that there are many charcoal stoves inside.
Su Nuan smelled a foul odor and quickly said, "The charcoal is damp. Open the window and let some air in."
Cheng Feng frowned and opened the window, while Su Nuan checked the charcoal stoves. Two of the charcoal stoves had been poured with water, causing the charcoal to burn incompletely and produce a large amount of poisonous gas.
She moved the problematic charcoal stove out and placed it at the door. When she came back, her eyes fell on Cheng Feng's cousin, but her cousin lowered her brows and looked very well-behaved.
A woman's gnashing voice came from the inner room, "Boss Cheng!"
Cheng Feng responded immediately, "Hey, here I come."
When Su Nuan saw him running inside happily, she knew that he was a henpecked man. Men like him are all good men.
She took off her coat and walked in.
There was a thin woman sitting on the big bed inside, but she had a big frame and was a head taller than Su Nuan, which made her a good match for Cheng Feng.
Because she was so thin, her eyes looked particularly big, and her gaze fell on Su Nuan.
"Are you... Nuan Nuan?"
Su Nuan nodded, "Yes, hello sister-in-law, it's our first time meeting..."
When her eyes fell on Mrs. Cheng's belly, she gasped. It was too big, it didn't look like a single baby.
She hurried forward to check Mrs. Cheng's pulse, and sure enough, it was not a single baby, nor twins, but triplets!
She said nervously, "Sister-in-law, you are about to give birth."
Mrs. Cheng frowned and said, "The baby is still a month away, how come it's early?"
Cheng Feng said nervously: "What should I do? What can I do?"
Su Nuan raised her eyebrows, "Go boil some water, lots of hot water, and bring the basket of gifts I gave to my sister-in-law."
Cheng Feng nodded, "Okay, okay..."
Now Cheng Feng was at a loss and needed someone to give him orders. He brought the basket and ran to boil water.
Su Nuan said, "I removed the two charcoal stoves in the room, so the temperature isn't too cold now. Take off your clothes first and I'll wipe you down."
Mrs. Cheng was cheerful and not shy at all, and she took off her clothes immediately.
"Sister, thank you for your hard work first."
Su Nuan smiled and said, "It's not a big deal."
She went to wash her hands and face, revealing her true appearance.
People here have a saying that a child will look like whoever he sees after birth. Although there is no basis for this, Su Nuan doesn't want to face the newborn with an ugly face.
When Mrs. Cheng saw Su Nuan's true face, her eyes became wide.
Su Nuan was afraid that Sister-in-law Cheng would misunderstand, so she quickly said, "Sister-in-law, I'm married and have a husband."
Sister Cheng actually slurped her saliva and said, "You look so pretty. Wait until I give birth to the baby so I can cherish you."
Su Nuan didn't see any ill intention in her. It was just the look of a sister-in-law who admired her younger sister. Su Nuan was a little amused and helpless.
But Su Nuan liked Mrs. Cheng's character very much. She smiled and said, "Okay, okay, I'll wipe your body for you."
There is a copper kettle in this room, which can boil water quickly on the charcoal stove.
Su Nuan used clean water mixed with river water to wipe Mrs. Cheng's body as a disinfection.
After checking and finding that the production was not that fast, Su Nuan cooked the fish meal in a small pot.
Mrs. Cheng sniffed and said, "It smells so good."
The water used to cook the fish meal was river water, which has some therapeutic effects, so it relieved Mrs. Cheng's vomiting symptoms.
Normally, morning sickness would get much better after three months, and it was rare for someone to suffer from it like she did.
When Su Nuan cooked a bowl of fish noodles and was about to give it to Mrs. Cheng, the cousin came over and started eating with chopsticks.
"Hey? What do you mean? Are you afraid I'll poison you?"
My cousin said awkwardly, "I know my sister-in-law's taste. I'll try it. If she can't accept it, she might vomit again."
Su Nuan's eyes were fixed on her cousin. She was drooling at the fish meal, and her greedy look could no longer be concealed.
This made Su Nuan even more suspicious about Mrs. Cheng's morning sickness.
She said, "I grew these bok choy myself, and I made the noodles myself. They're light and refreshing, perfect for women about to give birth. Why would you, a non-pregnant woman, grab them?"
"Besides, we can't waste this little bit of fine food. My sister-in-law must know this and will eat it all even if it doesn't suit her taste."
My cousin gritted her teeth and said, "I'm not married yet. I'm not a woman."
Su Nuan sneered, "I'm a doctor. I can tell at a glance whether someone is a damsel or not. Don't act like a fool in front of me, or I'll kill you."
