Yicaotang, backyard.

Ai Qiaoqiao sat on the soft couch, holding a stack of letters in her hand, and looked at it excitedly.

The people who served on the side kept helping her fan, and Ai Qiaoqiao's abdomen was high and bulging, looking like she was eight or nine months old.

"Are you reading Zhang Wu's letter again?" The crystal curtain at the door sounded, and the night left the dead and walked in.

Ai Qiaoqiao smiled, "I really didn't expect that Brother Wu would become a general one day." ”

Ye Liyan looked at his little wife's red face, and also hooked the corners of his mouth.

"I can only say that he is lucky." Zhang Wu has been smooth sailing in recent years, first because of the rebels in Huai'an City, he was reused from above, and then repeatedly got the opportunity to perform, and after a few years, he was actually named deputy general, acting as a general of the third grade.

Originally, he could choose to go to the imperial capital, but Zhang Wu chose to stay at the border, including Huai'an City, all of which were within his sphere of influence.

Ai Qiaoqiao's eyes were full of longing, "Brother Xiao Wu said in the letter that he will go to Huai'an City to inspect in the near future, and we will be able to meet again then." ”

Ye Liyan took the wet handkerchief from Tingfeng's hand and wiped the sweat beads from Ai Qiaoqiao's sideburns.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and Ai Qiaoqiao's body is getting heavier and heavier, and she is sweating when she moves.

Ai Qiaoqiao read Brother Wu's letters over and over again, but she was very patient at night, and helped her take a shower after eating with her at night.

Although Ai Qiaoqiao asked to wash herself every time, Ye Liyu refused to agree.

Five months have passed since the month of her pregnancy, and Ye Lidi has never let her bathe alone, including going out with two people to serve at all times.

"I'm not a kid anymore." Ai Qiaoqiao's height has risen, but it is still much worse than Ye Li's death.

"I'm going to take me to the Medicine King Valley tonight in a few days, and let her worship the God of Medicine." When he rested, he commanded at night.

Because he wanted to officially accept tonight as a disciple, he arranged this trip at night.

"You can go without worry, anyway, I've only been here for nine months, and you won't need a month at most." Ai Qiaoqiao leaned lazily into his arms, half-squinting her eyes.

"I'll be back in ten days." Ye Liyu said slowly, rubbing his big hand on her stomach, "By the way, there is something I forgot to tell you, if Huaixi is coming back recently, then you don't have to be reckless and go to the kitchen again, you can send him to Jinghonglou if he wants to eat." ”

Ai Qiaoqiao's eyes opened suddenly.

"Isn't Ruo Huaixi an official in the court?" I heard that the official who has been promoted to the third grade, why did he come back?

Ye Liyan chuckled, "A few days ago, I received a letter from the imperial capital, his father was seriously ill and had already gone, and he resigned to the emperor under the pretext that he wanted to take his father's coffin back to his hometown. ”

Ai Qiaoqiao opened her mouth in surprise.

If Waishi would be like this...... Filial?

He hated his father to death, hated the place in the military department's mansion, how could he resign for that ruthless father!

"By the way, what did Ruo Gongzi's father die of?" Ai Qiaoqiao asked.

Ye Liyan lowered his eyelashes, hiding the deep understanding under his eyes, "This...... Who knows. ”

"His father is gone, will no one dare to bully him in the future?" Ai Qiaoqiao followed and asked.

Ye Liyan looked at the little wife in his arms with an indignant look, and couldn't help but chuckle, "That's right, no one dares to force him to do what he doesn't want to do." ”

That's why he resigned and returned to Huai'an City.

"Great!" Ai Qiaoqiao said excitedly, "Then we can meet again." ”

With a smile in her eyes, she touched her forehead.

I believe that anyone will regret Ruo Huaixi's choice.

If you don't want to put the official position of the Sanpin Minister, you have to go to a small place like Huai'an City......

However, for Ruo Huaixi, the most important thing is to be able to stay away from the place he hates the most, and as for how his father died, I believe that no one will question it except him.

Three days later, Ye Liyan took Ye Bing, the second shopkeeper of the Grass Hall, and the group left Huai'an City and went to the Valley of the Medicine King.

Ai Qiaoqiao stayed at home.

When she was not at home at night, she was even more bored, and she couldn't lift her spirits when she went to Jinghonglou every day.

She didn't even have the last hobby, she was confused all day long, and she was about to grow mushrooms.

Seeing that ten days are about to pass, counting the days and nights are gone, they will come back.

"Sister Qiaoqiao, the general has entered the city!" Ai Xiaoling ran to the room on the fourth floor to spread the word.

Ai Qiaoqiao suddenly jumped up like a rabbit, and quickly hugged Ai Xiaoling in fright, "Sister Qiaoqiao, don't be impulsive, Brother Xiao Wu just entered the city, and even Huai'an City Mansion Yin sent someone out to greet him, this time he should go to Mansion Yin first, and he won't be able to come over until evening." ”

Ai Qiaoqiao said excitedly, "Quickly send someone to Xiaofang Village and pick up Uncle Zhang and them." ”

Xiao Ling said proudly, "Brother Han has already sent someone, Sister Qiaoqiao, don't worry." ”

An hour later, Han Shen's people picked up Zhang Wu's father and Wen Wenhua and his wife.

Runxue is still holding a three- or four-year-old, pink little girl in her arms.

Ai Qiaoqiao liked it so much that she wanted to hug the child, but it frightened everyone.

"Qiaoqiao, don't scare us." Runxue looked at her stomach and couldn't cry or laugh, everyone knew that the night god doctor took his little wife like a treasure, and even when the wind blew, he was afraid of flashing his waist, how dare they let her hold this child.

After greeting everyone for a while, they entered Jinghong Building, and Ai Qiaoqiao asked the kitchen to arrange meals.

But she always felt a little regretful, if only she could cook herself, Xiao Wu hadn't eaten the dishes she made for a long time.

She was feeling regretful when she suddenly heard Ai Xiaoling shouting outside the door, "Xiaobao! ”

A young girl walked in outside Jinghong Building, with a ruddy face and a double bun on her head, looking very playful.

"Xiaoling!"

Two girls hugging each other.

"Qin Xiaobao, you still know to come back." Ai Xiaoling was in tears.

"I said it a long time ago, I would bring my husband back." Qin Xiaobao pointed out the door proudly.

There was an ordinary carriage parked at the gate, and a handsome boy walked down from the horse, dressed as a scholar, with almond eyes, a straight nose, and a slightly upturned mouth.

"Wakakoe." Ai Qiaoqiao was surprised and delighted, and stepped forward to ask for a blessing.

Ruo Huaixi hurriedly stretched out his hand to help her and looked at her stomach with a smile, "That's it, it's all your own people, you don't need these vulgar etiquette, what about that guy who left the night, why didn't you see him come out?" ”

Ai Qiaoqiao told him about taking Ye Liwu to the Medicine King Valley tonight to worship.

welcomed Ruo Huaixi and Qin Xiaobao into the building, everyone knew each other, although their identities were different, Ruo Huaixi was easy-going, and he could talk to everyone, and everyone didn't seem cold when they chatted.

It was getting dark, and all the dishes in the back kitchen were ready.

Ai Qiaoqiao was waiting for irritability, and a guy outside ran in and said, "General Zhang has arrived." ”

The crowd rose one after another.

There were many officers and soldiers gathered outside Jinghong Tower, and several war horses stopped in front of the building.

Zhang Wu has already passed the age of the weak crown, and his figure is even stronger and more powerful, and he can see a smile on Ai Qiaoqiao's face.

"Qiaoqiao!"

"Brother Wu!" Ai Qiaoqiao ran down the steps to meet him.

After listening to the wind and rain, she didn't have time to dissuade her, she had already rushed over and hugged Zhang Wu.

Zhang Wu laughed and held Ai Qiaoqiao firmly with his hand.

"Qiaoqiao, are you going to be a mother?"

"Hmm......" Ai Qiaoqiao sniffed, feeling a little embarrassed.

Zhang Wu smiled without any guilt, and helped Ai Qiaoqiao into Jinghong Tower with one hand to salute everyone.

The first person to worship was naturally his father.

Even though Uncle Zhang is a lot older, he still can't help but redden.

His son is so promising, and his heart is full of pride.

"Can I stay longer in Huai'an City this time?" Ai Qiaoqiao asked Zhang Wu.

"In the future, if there is a garrison here, I can come here from time to time." Zhang Wudao, while constantly looking at her face, "How is the night god doctor treating you?" ”

"Hmm!" Ai Qiaoqiao nodded without hesitation.

Zhang Wu had a gentle smile on his face.

"That's good."

At this time, Han Shen came over and urged them to take their seats.

Everyone sat down.

Zhang Wu took Ai Qiaoqiao's hand, and suddenly felt that she grabbed herself hard.

I looked down and was shocked to see Ai Qiaoqiao's face was pale, and her expression was extremely unnatural.

"Qiaoqiao?"

Ai Qiaoqiao grabbed Zhang Wu's hand with one hand, only to feel a pain in her stomach, which made her breathless.

"What's wrong with Qiaoqiao?" Everyone looked this way.

Runxue suddenly burst out, "Qiaoqiao shouldn't be about to give birth, right?" ”

Everyone immediately panicked.

"Don't panic, this place is not far from Yicaotang, hurry up and send someone to ask for a doctor." Ruo Huaixi is relatively calm.

The dishes on the table are all ready, but this situation happens.

Ai Qiaoqiao recovered from a little pain and didn't know what to say apologetically.

Fortunately, everyone didn't mind, but persuaded her to take care of herself.

The doctors of Yicaotang soon came, and after seeing Ai Qiaoqiao, they said that they were going to give birth.

Ai Qiaoqiao was in a cold sweat.

"How can it be so fast, it's next month." She said urgently.

The doctor was also a little helpless, "Madame, this is so happy and stimulated." ”

Ruo Huaixi smiled bitterly, "It's all our fault, we should wait until you give birth to a child before coming to Huai'an City." ”

Ai Qiaoqiao was amused by him and wanted to laugh, but there was another cramping pain in her stomach.

The doctor suggested that Ai Qiaoqiao be sent back to Yicaotang first.

Zhang Wu didn't say a word, picked up Ai Qiaoqiao horizontally, and sent him to the carriage outside.

Ai Qiaoqiao returned to Yicao Hall, and no one left, all gathered in Yicao Hall to wait for the letter.

As a result, the wait was a day and a night.

The doctor of Yicaotang came to see it, but said that the fetal position had changed, and he invited Wen Po to come and toss for a long time without moving.

Even Ai Qiaoqiao herself was a little scared.

"I'm not going to give birth anymore!" She shouted, "I'm not going to give birth, I'm going to wait for the night to come back!" ”

The two stable women are in a hurry, how can they say that they will not give birth if they give birth to a child.

At this moment, the wind and rain outside the door shouted, "Childe is back!" ”

Before the two stable women could react, the door curtain was raised, and Ye Liyu hurriedly walked in.

"Ye Gongzi, this is the delivery room...... "Even if the other party is a miracle doctor, they can't enter the delivery room casually, they are used to driving people out.

Ye Liyan came into the door and took off his clothes directly, only wearing the plain middle clothes inside, and then cleaned his hands in the basin, ignoring the persuasion of the two stable women.

The two stable women wanted to say something, but when they saw Ye Liwu come to the bed, they leaned over and kissed Ai Qiaoqiao's forehead.

"I'm back."

Ai Qiaoqiao's crying little face was full of tears, "Brother Night, it hurts...... Am I going to die? ”

"No, it won't." The night left the mourning calmly.

With the silver needle in hand, he is the best doctor in the Yan country, no matter how panicked the patient is, he always maintains the composure he deserves.

Ai Qiao happened to see him like this, so he also calmed down.

Ye Liyan took out the silver needle and quickly stabbed two needles on her body.

After the third injection, Ai Qiaoqiao only felt a burst of relief under her body, and even the pain seemed to disappear.

"I sealed your acupuncture points, and you won't feel any pain for the time being." Ye Liyan said calmly, and at the same time reached between her legs and pulled gently.

Ai Qiaoqiao only felt that there was heat under him.

"Wow......" The baby's cry sounded in the room.

"Male or female?" Ai Qiaoqiao asked.

Ye Lixian cut the child's umbilical cord and picked it up to check the child's legs......

At this moment, something cocked between the child's legs, and a stream of heat rushed out and drenched him.

Looking at Ye Liyan's distorted face, Ai Qiaoqiao couldn't hold back anymore and laughed out loud.
