Sir Song, do you want to pledge yourself to me?

Chapter 279 It’s Right to Listen to Her

Ji Wei grinned, "Hehe, that's good."

Ji Nuan briefly told her about the follow-up arrangements of the new pharmacy. Just as she walked out of the pharmacy, Xue Qing came to her with Aunt Zhou.

"Nuannuan, I'm bothering you again. I have to ask you to come home," Aunt Zhou said apologetically. "The baby at home has been crying non-stop at night for the past two days. He's not hungry or has defecated. We really can't find the cause, and your sister-in-law is so worried that she's crying. I just saw your carriage passing by in the vegetable garden, and I thought you must be back, so I came to ask you to come over and help."

Ji Nuan smiled and said, "It's not a big deal. It's just that you like to be polite. Let's go and see the child now."

When they arrived at Zhou's house, the child was sleeping peacefully. Ji Nuan took the opportunity to examine the child's hands and feet, and quietly used her supernatural powers to examine the child's entire body. As she expected, the result was that the child's night crying was caused by indigestion.

She turned her head to look at her sister-in-law Dayu, whose eyes were red, and asked softly, "Sister-in-law, can you tell me how you feed the child at night?"

Dayu's wife gently touched the child's face, her heart aching. She described the feeding process in detail: "The child was fed before bed, and I fed him with breast milk. But I was afraid that the milk wouldn't satisfy the child and he would be hungry at night, so as soon as I noticed him move, I would touch his diaper. If the diaper was still dry, I would worry that he might be hungry, and then I would feed him again." After saying this, she looked at Ji Nuan in confusion, as if asking her what she had done wrong. After all, isn't raising a child like this?

Ji Nuan understood very well the care and caution that Sister-in-law Dayu felt as a mother towards her child. She patiently explained in a way that they could understand, "Sister-in-law, if the child moves at night, it doesn't necessarily mean that he is hungry. The child is still young, and his gastrointestinal development is not yet complete. If you feed him too much, it will cause indigestion. Sister-in-law is a first-time mother, so it is natural for her to feel sorry for the child. When you have nothing to do during the day, you can hold the child in the yard to bask in the sun. This will also be good for the child. At night, don't feed the child too much. If he cries, you can try to gently massage his stomach. This may relieve his discomfort."

"Is this all right?" Sister Dayu's eyes flashed with doubt.

"Well, there's nothing wrong with the child, he just ate too much." Ji Nuan nodded affirmatively, with a soothing tone in her voice.

"Listen to Nuannuan, she is a doctor. You almost died during childbirth, and she saved you. The child is fine now, you will be right if you listen to her." Aunt Zhou was afraid that her daughter-in-law would not believe it, so she quickly agreed.

"Mom, of course I trust Sister Nuannuan, but I didn't expect that it was me who fed the child too much, which made the child uncomfortable." Sister Dayu said, her originally furrowed brows gradually relaxed, and a guilty yet relaxed smile appeared on her face.

Aunt Zhou asked her daughter-in-law to stay in the house to look after the children. She picked up eggs into the basket while thanking Ji Nuan and sent her to the gate of the yard.

As they stepped out of the yard, the sound of firecrackers from the village rang clearly in their ears. Aunt Zhou's face immediately broke into a smile, and she said excitedly, "Nuannuan, did you hear the sound of firecrackers exploding? That's the good news coming! Let's go, let's go to the village chief's house to share in the good news!"

She took Ji Nuan's hand and walked briskly towards the village head's house, muttering to herself, "Oh! It's been so many years since the older generation settled here, and there have only been two scholars in several generations. Now our village finally has a juren! This is truly a great event for our village!"

"The scholar can't run away, so you really don't have to leave so quickly." Ji Nuan was pulled by Aunt Zhou and had to speed up her pace. She responded with a helpless smile.

It was only now that she suddenly remembered that today was the day the results would be announced.

I wonder if anyone in my family has gone to see the list, and whether Mr. Fu has been on the list as he wished.

Just as her thoughts were racing, Aunt Zhou happened to ask the same question: "By the way, did the gentleman you invited also take part in this provincial examination? If he passed, he should have sent a message."
