310 Parting
Zhao Zhan's eyes were glued to Yue Jiaojiao, unable to move away.
“Zhao Zhan, if you keep looking, I'm going to leave you.”
“No.” Zhao Zhan shook his head repeatedly. “We'll be eating and sleeping in the open with a group of men. Besides, the Bei City people are tough. We don't know if there will be bandits on the way from here. There's nothing to be concerned about as men, but you're different.”
She was such a delicate and soft woman.
If the bandits saw her, what would they do? Just the thought of it made his teeth itch.
Yue Jiaojiao was afraid that if he didn't leave soon, she wouldn't be able to maintain the smile on her face, so she reproached him and pushed him away. “Go on, quickly. Be considerate of Fang Tianliu's feelings.”
Zhao Zhan grabbed his lover's slender wrists and held her in his arms. He tightened his arms around her, but he did not dare to hurt her too much. “Stay at home. I'll send you a letter when I pass by a town.”
Yue Jiaojiao quietly leaned into his arms and said obediently, “Okay, I'll reply to you every time I receive a letter. I'll mail it to you when you've settled down in Bei City.”
Zhao Zhan took a deep breath, trying to keep his lover's scent in his body.
“I'm leaving now.”
“Go on then.”
He reluctantly let go and then sat on Yang Lizheng's ox cart.
The long whip was raised, and the ox cart slowly moved forward.
Zhao Zhan kept staring at Yue Jiaojiao's figure until he could no longer see her clearly.
“Hey…” Fang Tianliu's beard was unkempt, but he was in much better spirits than three days ago. “Don't worry, if there is any danger on the way to Bei City, don't die with me.”
The person you left behind was in too much pain.
“We won't die.” Zhao Zhan patted Fang Tianliu's shoulder heavily. “We'll finish our business and come back early.”
He had just left, but he was already worrying about Yue Jiaojiao.
Madam Qin looked at Yue Jiaojiao, who was still standing at the same spot. “Zhao Zhan said to go home because it's cold outside. Your body is weak, it won't be good if you catch a cold from the wind. Should we visit Li Miao?”
As soon as Zhao Zhan left, the surroundings suddenly turned cold.
This man had always been a man of few words when he was at home, but as long as he was by her side, he would never let Yue Jiaojiao's words mean nothing.
Even if he didn't understand what she was saying, he would still go along with her and continue the conversation with a serious face.
“Sure, let's go to her house.:” Madam Qin followed Yue Jiaojiao and brought her to Li Miao's house.
Li Miao's stomach was swollen. After the bonfire feast, she only wandered around the house and did not go out.
Seeing that Yue Jiaojiao had arrived, Li Miao's face was filled with joy. “I've been so bored at home all day. I don't know when your Zhao Zhan will be back. If you have nothing to do, come over more often, please.”
Li Miao looked at Yue Jiaojiao with concern. Before Zhao Zhan left, he had specially made a trip home to look for her. He told her to call Yue Jiaojiao over more often when she had nothing to do.
Although his lover didn't like to go out, Zhao Zhan knew that she hated the cold and quiet more than anyone else.
Li Miao took out a needle and thread. “You have a special gift, right? Do you think I'm carrying a boy or a girl? Look at the clothes in my house. I made a few pieces of clothes of different colors.”
Yue Jiaojiao was a little startled.
When she saw Li Miao's face full of anticipation, she pulled herself together and thought about what her intuition told her a year ago. “You're a lucky person. I guess you're carrying a boy and a girl. I think the clothes you're sewing should be useful.”
“Really?”
Li Miao didn't doubt her words at all. She touched her stomach and was overjoyed.
“A boy and a girl is enough. Dashan and I won't have any more children. At first, when I didn't know that I was pregnant with twins, I thought that if this child was a girl, I would only want her.
“I've never been to school, so there are many things I don't understand. I'm thinking, what if the Dashan becomes biased when we have a boy after?
“Although I know he probably won't, I still can't bear to see my daughter suffer.”
Yue Jiaojiao looked at Li Miao with a gentle expression.
She was a very good mother.
“You don't have to worry anymore,” Yue Jiaojiao said gently. “Your second baby is already a blessing that others can't even hope for. When you give birth to the child safely, the people in the village will be so envious of you. By the way, did you find a woman to serve you during your confinement?”
Yue Jiaojiao still remembered Li Miao mentioning that her family couldn't help her.
“I did.” Li Miao couldn't help but praise Zhao Zhan. “It's all thanks to Zhao Zhan actually. The woman he hired in his workshop is diligent, capable, and clean. When I usually go to the mountain to deliver food, I would ask around for help. In the end, I settled on the mother of a person working in the workshop.”
Yue Jiaojiao's interest, which had just been piqued a little, was greatly dampened with Zhao Zhan's name.
“Jiaojiao, I have something to give you. Wait for me here.”
Li Miao went into the back room and took out a box. She picked out one item from the box and walked out.
“This is for you.”
“You made this for me?”
Yue Jiaojiao looked at the rattle-drum in Li Miao's hand, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. “I'm not a child anymore. You should keep this for your babies.”
“This is for you.”
Li Miao could not bear to see Yue Jiaojiao unhappy.
“Zhao Zhan said that I should give it to you in two days. I can't bear to see you sad now, so I wanted to give it to you now to make you happy. It doesn't matter when you get it, don't you think?”
“Zhao Zhan gave you this?”
Yue Jiaojiao reached out to take the rattle-drum and exerted a little force on her wrist. The rattle-drum made a funny sound, and she laughed along. “What a silly man. Such childish things are for children to play with.”
Li Miao saw that she was happy and laughed along with her. “He must have been afraid that you would be in a bad mood, so he left you these little toys.”
“Did Zhao Zhan give you anything else?”
Li Miao looked away guiltily.
“No, Dashan said that he didn't even go to the workshop these days. I guess it wasn't easy for him to secretly make a rattle-drum when you weren't paying attention. He told me to give it to you the day after tomorrow. I just couldn't hold back because…”
There was actually a box of items that Li Miao was told to give to Jiaojiao one by one.
