Chapter 407 Promoted to Godmother
The old doctor nodded and said, "In addition to eating well, drinking well and sleeping well, you should not overwork yourself."
Brother Qin was overjoyed as he didn't expect there would be another chance.
"I told you not to be too tired!"
"Since we got the orchard, you've devoted yourself to it, getting herbs and taking care of the fruit trees. You've never been idle for a single day. You've worn yourself out. From now on, you're not allowed to take care of these things. Just stay at home and take care of yourself."
As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became awkward.
Because the orchard was led by Gu Xixi.
Mrs. Qin was stunned.
She was ashamed and angry, her face flushed as she glared at her husband, "I am not feeling well myself, what does this have to do with the orchard and the fruit trees?"
"Before we built the orchard, we still lost those two babies!"
"Besides, what kind of life did you live in the past? What kind of life do you live now?"
"When you count the money you make from selling medicinal herbs at night, you always say happily that it's all thanks to the orchard and Xixi!"
"Now that we're in front of people, if you can't speak human language, get out!"
Brother Qin then realized that he had acted rashly and said something that was ill-considered.
Seeing his wife so angry, he felt regretful and distressed.
"It's my fault. I shouldn't have said such nonsense! Don't get angry. You might get upset."
Aunt Zhang came back to her senses and advised with a smile, "Good child, don't be angry with him."
"Gou Wa's father is also worried about you two. He is too anxious."
Aunt Qin looked at Gu Xixi and Aunt Zhang with an apologetic look in her eyes, "Aunt, you don't have to say good things for him."
"We are sorry today."
"Xixi treated others sincerely, but heard such ungrateful words."
"If it were me, I would probably kick him out right then and there and never have any contact with him again!"
She paused and said earnestly, "But I have nothing to say today."
"No matter what he thinks, I was determined to plant fruit trees."
"I regard that orchard as a treasure. I don't regret it today, and I won't regret it in the future."
"I am not feeling well. I am ill. It has nothing to do with the orchard."
"I just hope you won't feel upset because of Gou Wa's father's foul mouth."
Gu Xixi looked at Mrs. Qin and said seriously, "Don't worry."
"We have known each other for a long time, how can I not understand you?"
Brother Qin regretted his actions so much that he held his wife's hand and apologized repeatedly, "Don't you know who I am?"
"I am stupid and I can't speak."
"Thanks to you taking care of everything in our family, we can live a better life."
"I also think the orchard is a treasure. I just said it without meaning it."
"I know I was wrong, you can hit me or scold me!"
Mrs. Qin looked stern and didn't look at him, "Don't touch me! Why are you saying these things to me!"
Brother Qin came to his senses and hurriedly turned to Gu Xixi to bow and apologize.
"I'm sorry, big sister!"
"It's my fault! I shouldn't have brought unrelated things together!"
"Don't let a jerk like me affect your sisterhood!"
He did not make excuses or quibble for himself, and his attitude of admitting his mistakes was quite sincere.
Gu Xixi herself wasn't angry, so she also said, "You're too kind."
"You feel sorry for your sister-in-law and want her to work less and rest more. I understand."
Brother Qin is indeed, as he said, an honest man with no ulterior motives.
Gu Xixi's forgiveness made him feel relieved, as if he had saved his life, and he thanked her even more sincerely.
"The child's mother told me that you mentioned it to her this afternoon and asked the old doctor to take a look."
"Now it seems that if it weren't for you, the elder sister, reminding me in time."
"Not only will the child be lost, but my wife will also suffer and be harmed."
Brother Qin took his wife's hand, and this time Sister Qin finally didn't push him away.
"Eldest sister is our family's benefactor, and she saved this child's life."
"I plan to have my eldest sister become his godmother as soon as he is born!"
"What do you say, ma'am?"
Mrs. Qin smiled and nodded, her eyes full of happiness.
Gu Xixi: ???
Be a godmother?
Gu Xixi, who had never been a mother in her two lifetimes, was very confused.
Later, the old doctor prescribed three days' worth of medicine for Mrs. Qin.
The doctor said, "You are in good health and there is no sign of miscarriage at the moment."
"There is no need to stay in bed and rest. Instead, some exercise is good for both the woman and the fetus."
"Just take your medicine on time, be careful not to lift heavy objects, avoid bumps and bumps, and eat well and get enough sleep every day."
"I will keep them and their child safe."
Mrs. Qin twisted Brother Qin's hand hard and said, "Did you hear that?"
"My child and I are fine now, we are not unable to move!"
Brother Qin gasped in pain but dared not cry out. He just kept smiling.
Then he asked the old doctor many questions about caring for pregnant women.
The matter was finally resolved satisfactorily in a way that Gu Xixi had never expected.
After seeing off the guests, Lu Jing bowed to Gu Xixi and said, "Congratulations, godmother of the child!"
The whole family laughed.
An Qinghe said, "Old Qin's mouth can easily offend people."
"No wonder his wife dislikes him."
"But I can vouch for it. He really doesn't have any bad intentions."
Aunt Zhang shook her head and sighed, "You said Gou Wa is such a smart kid."
Shitou squatted under the eaves, smoothing Xiaohua's fur. He raised his head and said seriously:
"Brother Gou Wa said that he took after his mother."
"Even his dad thinks so."
Children speak without restraint, and everyone couldn't help laughing.
The old doctor prepared the antidote in just three days.
It was put in a small gourd bottle and given to Gu Xixi along with two other bottles of pills.
"Why is that kid always being murdered? He's not even here, and he's still causing trouble for me!"
"I made him two more bottles of detoxification pills. Ask him to carry them with him."
"If something happens, taking this medicine can always buy some time to find a doctor to save your life!"
Gu Xixi said with a smile, "Master may say he dislikes him, but he still cares about his life or death."
The old doctor blew his beard and said, "I am concerned about my disciple."
"If he dies outside and can't come back, my only disciple will be very sad."
"Master!" Gu Xixi said angrily.
The old doctor turned and walked away, "And tell him that I have put the money for the herbs into his account."
"They are all good medicines! They are not cheap!"
Gu Xixi walked out of the village alone, found a secluded place, and took out a whistle.
The whistle is made of white jade, smooth all over and without any decorative markings.
But it was a token of trust that Mu Nanzhao gave to Gu Xixi.
It can be used to drive Mu Nanzhao's secret guards left in the northwest.
Different whistle tones represent different signals.
Gu Xixi blew the non-emergency call signal.
A package containing medicine and a letter was sent to the capital overnight...
On the day An Qinghe returned to Yunling, the wheat fields in Huachidu Village also began to spray foliar fertilizer.
There are indeed more than a dozen families in the village who did not buy fertilizer.
I heard that those who bought fertilizers and those who didn’t looked down on each other in private.
There were differences of opinion and some people even had arguments over it.
Gu Xixi wanted to avoid trouble, so she simply went to the farm that day.
The fruits on the farm were ripe at this time.
