Those who have four, five, or six children, or who insist on having a son even after having a bunch of daughters, are simply outdated in their thinking!
These old women in the village really need to change their minds.
The more Zhao Tingzhang thought about it, the more serious the situation seemed. Human lives were at stake; how could so many women die because of childbirth?
Now that the village is wealthy, he feels he should do something.
Just then, the sound of horses' hooves echoed from the village entrance.
Zhao Tingzhang quickly stood up. "It's Dahai and the others who are back."
He Chun also dropped what he was doing and followed him out.
Zhao Xiaohe heard the sound of horses' hooves at home and rushed to the village entrance in one go.
"Big brother, it's big brother back!" Zhao Xiaohe went straight to greet him.
Zhao, the pavilion chief, called out worriedly from behind, "Little River, Little River, don't get too close, or you might get hurt!"
Zhao Xiaohe didn't care about any of that. He ran to the carriage almost the instant it stopped.
Zhao Xiaohe couldn't touch the horse's neck, so he could only touch the mane hanging down on the horse's neck a few times.
"My horse, my horse, you are so handsome! You are the horse of my dreams!"
Zhao Dahai jumped out of the car and patted Zhao Xiaohe on the head.
"Hehe, you little rascal, didn't you say that the horse at your brother Yan's house is your dream horse!"
Zhao Xiaohe explained, "I have many dreams about horses, Dad. When I grow up, I want to raise horses, lots and lots of horses..."
Zhao Xiaohe couldn't wait to plan his career blueprint, speaking with anticipation.
Everyone present thought it was just a child's joke.
"Alright, tie up the horse for Wanzi's family. Your mother is waiting for us to go back for dinner," Zhao Tingzhang urged.
Zhao Dahai responded and tied the horse to the old locust tree.
Zhao Yan's horse went to fetch water; it was usually tied up under the old locust tree.
Zhao Dahai patted the horse's neck, "Hehe, now you two have company."
The village suddenly had two horse-drawn carriages, which amazed everyone.
The women in the village started asking around yesterday about whose horse it was.
Zhao, the pavilion chief, just smiled and didn't say anything. When the people pressed him for answers, he simply left and avoided them whenever he saw them.
The group dispersed and went home.
Zhao Tingzhang, along with his two sons, also returned home.
Liu and Cheng Ying had already prepared dinner and were waiting for the father and his two sons to return.
As soon as Zhao Tingzhang stepped through the door, Liu Shi began to urge him, "Hey old man, how come you never remember when to eat? It's one thing for Dahai to go to the city to deliver water, but Xiaohe hasn't even heard the sound of his horse's hooves yet, and he's already running faster than a dog!"
Honestly, none of them are even enthusiastic about eating.
Cheng Ying silently went to the kitchen to serve rice and dishes.
While Cheng Ying wasn't paying attention, Liu quietly pulled Zhao Dahai aside.
"Dahai, have you gone to the doctor? What did the doctor say?"
Before leaving, Liu repeatedly instructed Zhao Dahai to go to the clinic to see a doctor to check if there was any problem in that area.
This matter has been dragging on since after the Lunar New Year, and it's infuriating that her son keeps making excuses about having other things to do.
This made Liu extremely anxious.
Zhao Dahai didn't want to talk about this topic and turned to wash his hands.
Liu stopped him again, "Did you go or not? It's not easy for you to come into the city."
