Chapter 71 A big mistake
Shu Wan was wearing a black shorts, her long black hair was tied up in a men's style, tied up high with only a ribbon of the same color. Her little face was not made up, but she was extremely charming!
"You..." Yu Jianning licked his lips, and then remembered the news he had just heard about Shu Wan's divorce. He looked at her very strangely, "Why are you here?" Finally, he didn't know what was wrong with his brain, but he asked this question.
"Can't I come?" Shu Wan blinked and asked speechlessly. What kind of tacky way of greeting was this? "No, I didn't mean... that!" Yu Jianning realized that he had slipped up and quickly explained, but his mind was blank and he didn't know what to say at all. "I mean, why did you..." He divorced, and it seemed that asking this question was not quite right, so he simply shut up.
"Is the carriage ready?" Shu Wan didn't want to waste time talking nonsense with him, so he asked directly.
"Oh, I bought it back early in the morning." Yu Jianning nodded subconsciously.
He had gone to buy a carriage and food for the journey, and that was why he missed the explosive news of Shu Wan's divorce.
"Let's go." Shu Wan nodded, not wanting to waste any more time.
In fact, Shu Wan could pretend that she didn't know and take this opportunity to divorce and gain her freedom.
But she always felt that someone like Rong Chen shouldn't fall like this.
The Chiyan Nation went to so much trouble to kidnap Rong Chen, and then sent back a highly similar corpse. There must be some ulterior motive behind this.
Whenever Shu Wan thought about live experiments or some inhuman torture, she felt a little horrified.
I always can't bear to watch it like this.
If she didn't know, it would be fine, but now that she knows, she can't just stand by and watch him die.
Yu Jianning got on the carriage and drove away. The horses galloped on the official road. The sound of horse hooves was endless and countless dust was splashed. The carriage had gone far away, but the flying dust had not settled yet.
The journey from the city to Songyang County could be completed in one night by riding a horse, but Shu Wan, who had no martial arts skills, was traveling with them in a horse-drawn carriage.
It took them a whole night to cover half the distance, and they entered Songyang County the next afternoon.
Shu Wan, who had never experienced such a bumpy ride, had a deep understanding of the inconvenience of ancient transportation.
So she missed her car even more.
After getting off the carriage, Shu Wan felt a little dizzy and almost vomited.
My stomach was churning.
Yu Jianning had never seen such a weak woman, so he looked at her with sympathy but also a little bit of disgust.
Then at this moment, he suddenly had a very big idea.
Shu Wan keeps retching like this, could she be pregnant?
Then the child must be his brother Rong Chen's, but now they are divorced, so the child is fatherless? For the sake of the child, they should get married again. No matter what, his brother Rong Chen will not allow his flesh and blood to be left alone. Besides, Shu Wan will definitely not be able to get married in the future if she raises the child alone, and will also suffer a lot of criticism.
But now his brother Rong Chen's life or death is unknown. Although Shu Wan said that he is not dead yet, nothing is absolute. What if this is just an excuse Shu Wan made for himself in his grief?
The more Yu Jianning thought about it, the more he felt that this was very likely, because he was the one who personally transported Rong Chen's body back, so this could not be false.
So Shu Wan must have been unable to bear the blow and went crazy! Realizing that Shu Wan was already so pitiful, he secretly decided not to expose Shu Wan. If she wanted to look for it, he would accompany her to look for it.
As time goes by, she will definitely slowly accept the reality, and she will not be so depressed even for the sake of her children.
Yu Jianning had never felt so pitiful for anyone before, who else but Shuwan and the baby in her belly?
Therefore, he couldn't help thinking that for the sake of his deceased brother Rong Chen, he was willing to take care of Shu Wan and her son, and teach Rong Chen's child as his own! With this child, the old lady would definitely feel much more comforted, and she wouldn't be so heartbroken.
I don’t know whether this child is a boy or a girl. I hope it’s a boy. In this way, the Rong family’s bloodline will not be cut off by Rong Chen.
It doesn't matter. It's good to be a girl. After all, it's Rong Chen's child, and his blood is flowing in her body. It's good to have this child. Why should we worry about whether it's a boy or a girl? Yes, both boys and girls are treasures.
Shu Wan, who was suffering from a splitting headache and was feeling miserable, had neither the time nor the energy to listen to his thoughts.
So, when they entered the inn, Yu Jianning's heart was in his throat, fearing that Shu Wanxing would make a mistake and hurt the baby in her belly.
If the rules allowed it, he really wanted to reach out and support Shu Wan!
It was wrong for Shu Wan to go out without her personal maid. She is pregnant now, how can she be so careless?
When he got back, he went to Yazi to find a smart maid to take care of Shu Wan's daily life. Since there was a gender difference between him and Shu Wan, many things would be inconvenient.
After entering the inn, Yu Jianning quickly paid for two adjacent rooms.
Then he told Shu Wan to have a good rest, ran downstairs, and personally ordered seven or eight dishes for Shu Wan. Most of the eight dishes were light.
Because Yu Jianning had heard that pregnant women cannot eat much in the first three months, and cannot stand the smell of cooking fumes, so he ordered light food, a bowl of millet porridge and a bowl of bird's nest porridge.
"Shu... Wan!" Yu Jianning smiled sincerely and honestly, "Just eat something first. If it doesn't suit your appetite, just tell the shopkeeper. I've already informed everyone. I have to go out for something now. I'll be back soon. After you finish eating, take a rest. Don't walk around. Wait for me to come back!" After Yu Jianning gave some instructions like pouring beans from his mouth, he ran out in a hurry.
He was really too careless. From yesterday to this afternoon, he drove the carriage very fast and Shu Wan was badly shaken. He was so afraid that something might happen to the baby in Shu Wan's belly. If that happened, he would never forgive himself in his life and he would be blamed for it.
A pregnant woman couldn't move easily, let alone such bumpy rides day and night. He had to ask a doctor to come back and check Shu Wan's pulse. If she felt any discomfort, he could get treatment immediately.
He ran to the door of the inn, then turned back.
It would be too much trouble for him to run out rashly like this, as he had no idea where to find a skilled doctor.
"Shopkeeper, do you know where the nearest doctor is? It must be the most skilled doctor!" He anxiously asked the innkeeper for help, asking the innkeeper to show him the way, which would be more efficient than wandering around like a headless fly.
"Doctor, there is a clinic not far from here. The medical skills of the doctor there are well-known far and wide. You may as well ask him to come over." Because he was generous, the shopkeeper treated him especially well. "What's the matter? Is that young man feeling unwell?" The shopkeeper greeted him again with concern.
"Yes, she is not feeling well. I would like to ask a doctor to come and take a look." Yu Jianning replied casually.
"Sir, please don't worry. How about this? You are unfamiliar with the place and it will be difficult to find a doctor. I will send a waiter to get you a doctor. You just wait here." The shopkeeper suggested very kindly.
"That's fine. Thank you, shopkeeper." Yu Jianning thought about it and felt that this method was feasible. "Then thank you, shopkeeper!" As he said that, he took out another ingot of silver and placed it on the counter as a thank you gift.
"You are too polite, sir." The shopkeeper's eyes widened and he reached out to grab the silver. As if he was afraid that Yu Jianning would regret it, he said politely, "Xiao Zhang, go and invite Doctor Chen. Remember, you must invite Doctor Chen. I don't trust anyone else!" After pretending to be polite, he directed a waiter to invite someone.
The fellow named Xiao Zhang immediately took the order and went.
Yu Jianning stood by the counter, feeling extremely anxious. He felt that time was taking too long and he wished the doctor would appear in front of him right now.
He was so anxious that he didn't know what to do, and Shu Wan in the guest room upstairs looked confused.
She couldn't understand why Yu Jianning's attitude towards her changed so much all of a sudden? Could it be that he felt sorry for her because he saw how badly she was being abused?
This is very likely! Well, it seems that this person is barely not bad.
Even when he had to go out to do something, he did not forget to remind her not to walk around. He must have been afraid that she would encounter danger. After all, Rong Chen had an accident in Songyang County.
Maybe their whereabouts have been exposed. If she runs around, and is targeted by those who killed Rong Chen, wouldn't she, a weak and unarmed woman, be in great danger?
Shu Wan felt relieved after figuring this out.
But she still couldn't eat anything and had no appetite. After rinsing her mouth again, she lay down on the bed with her clothes on and went to sleep.
She couldn't sleep well in the carriage last night, and after all the trouble today, she fell asleep quickly.
On the other hand, Yu Jianning was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. He could not even stand still. He waited for a long time but the doctor still did not come. He almost couldn't help but run out several times.
But in fact, only a quarter of an hour has passed.
"Boss, why haven't you come yet?" he asked the shopkeeper for help.
"Don't worry, sir. They must be on the way!" The shopkeeper didn't say anything like it was only a quarter of an hour. He just kept comforting him.
"By the way, shopkeeper, do you know where I can find a broker? I want to buy a maid!" Yu Jianning suddenly remembered this, so he decided to distract himself.
"Buy a maid?" The shopkeeper looked up at him. "It's like this, sir. I just happen to have a little maid here. She came here the other day. She was entrusted here by a fellow villager of mine. But the work here is all dirty and tiring, which a little girl can do. I was thinking of finding an easy job for her. Don't worry, sir. She is absolutely smart and won't make you unhappy. If she can follow you and serve you, wouldn't it be easier than working in my little shop? Sir, how about I call her over for you to take a look?" The shopkeeper kept talking, and Yu Jianning didn't even have a chance to speak.
"Okay, we'll take her. Call her out!" Yu Jianning nodded. As long as she can take care of Shu Wan, it doesn't matter who she is, as long as she's a woman! "Ah!" Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper went to call someone happily.
After a while, the person was brought out. She was a little girl of about eleven or twelve years old, and she looked honest!
"Sir, do you think this is ok?" the shopkeeper asked cautiously.
"Okay, I'll take her! How much silver?" Yu Jianning asked again.
"Fifty taels of silver!" The shopkeeper stretched out his hand and waved his five fingers in front of Yu Jianning.
Although he knew that the shopkeeper was taking the opportunity to raise the price, Yu Jianning did not bargain with him and just handed over the silver.
The shopkeeper took the silver with a grin on his face, then took out the girl's indenture from his arms.
"Sir, this is her indenture contract. Please keep it. From now on, she will be your maid." Facing this God of Wealth, his old face smiled like a chrysanthemum as he spoke, "Xiaoju, why don't you kowtow to your master and express your gratitude?" As he said that, he pushed the little girl named Xiaoju again.
"Xiao Ju greets the young master!" Xiao Ju bowed somewhat stiffly.
"Stand up, no need to kneel to me. From now on your master is the one upstairs!" Yu Jianning said.
"Yes." Xiaoju answered obediently. For people like them, it is not up to them to decide who to serve.
Yu Jianning wanted to ask Xiaoju to go up first, but then he remembered that Shu Wan was dressed as a man.
After calling the doctor today and buying this girl, her female body can no longer be concealed.
I'm afraid I have to discuss this matter with Shu Wan, but now that she is pregnant, it is really not suitable for her to travel.
It seems that he has to find a way to send Shu Wan back. No matter what, nothing can happen to the child.
If she insisted on looking for Rong Chen, he would go for her and dig deep into the ground to look for him.
Yu Jianning had a lot of thoughts. After this episode, his waiter Xiao Zhang came panting with Doctor Chen.
Then Yu Jianning stopped thinking and ran upstairs in a hurry with the doctor and Xiaoju.
I knocked on the door twice, but no one answered. Shu Wan was sleeping so soundly that he didn't hear anything.
But Yu Jianning didn't think so. His mind flashed with images of Shu Wan falling to the ground unconscious due to illness, even covered in blood. He also remembered the accusations made by all the people involved after Shu Wan's child was gone, and even the scene of Rong Chen's ghost suddenly appearing in front of him, seeking revenge on him.
Yu Jianning almost cried. He didn't want this to happen! He deserved to die for finding out that Shu Wan was pregnant so late.
Without time to think, he raised his foot and kicked Shu Wan's door open as if ready to die.
If anything happened to Shu Wan and the child, he would commit suicide to atone for his sin.
Rong Chen: Thank you!
