I'm already dressed like a fool, what's wrong with taking the regent into the bridal chamb

"First, get the pledge and your dowry book. You can pursue the rest later."

Wen Qingzhi helped her lie down. "It's normal for money to be different, but there won't be any mistakes with jewelry. If there's something missing, just ask them to compensate you with the equivalent amount."

"After all, if it was really something An Susu had used, you wouldn't want it, right?"

"You're right."

Zheng Yue calmed down and exhaled, "Indeed, I will never touch anything that bitch has used."

"Azhi, I leave this matter to you."

She held Wen Qingzhi's hand tightly and said sadly, "The pledged child and the booklet are in my room, facing the bed. There's a willow-leaf-shaped mark on the beam above, which faces south and north. That's where it is."

Wen Qingzhi never thought that she would hide things on the beams.

Seeing her surprised look, Zheng Yue smiled and said, "When I was young, I traveled all over the country with my father and learned a few basic kung fu moves."

She was very glad at this moment that she had to pretend to be weak in front of Baili Xuance at that time, and he didn't know that she knew some kung fu.

Otherwise, based on his understanding of himself, I'm afraid the things would have been looted by him long ago.

"Sister, don't worry."

Wen Qingzhi patted the back of her hand to reassure her.

"Oh, by the way, Sister. I'll ask Xiao Chang to get a vaccination booklet for the baby in a couple of days. Make sure to get the vaccinations on time."

"vaccine?"

"Well, it can prevent some diseases and help babies grow healthier."

"Okay, okay, then you call her."

Wen Qingzhi was amused by her, "Why don't you ask me what I'm in charge of? Aren't you afraid of harming the child?"

Zheng Yue reached out and tapped her cheek. "You saved my life, mother and I. What are you afraid of?"

"However, I am a little curious about this 'vaccine' you mentioned. I've never seen it before—"

She suddenly thought of the scene she saw on the day of delivery, and it was not surprising.

Seeing that she held back the rest of her words, Wen Qingzhi knew what she was thinking.

She didn't hide it, saying, "In my family, from birth to seven years old, the main focus is on preventing certain diseases. However, there are some shots that babies might react to."

"There may be a high fever and other conditions, but Sister is also relieved that with me here, the child will be fine."

When she said there would be a reaction, Zheng Yue was shocked, but after listening to her, she felt relieved.

"With you here, we are not afraid."

Wen Qingzhi nodded. "What exactly do you want to fight? I'll send you a brochure tomorrow and let Xiao Chang explain it to you."

"One of these diseases is called poliomyelitis. Its symptoms include muscle atrophy and weakness, limb deformity, difficulty moving the upper and lower limbs, etc. Severe cases can lead to physical deformities."

"It is an acute infectious disease caused by infection with the poliovirus. The pathogen is usually transmitted through the patient's feces and pharyngeal secretions."

She patiently explained, "That's why we need to get vaccinated to prevent these diseases."

After hearing this, Zheng Yue was so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat. She lowered her eyes and thought for a while, then said, "I think I've seen the symptoms you described before."

She looked up in surprise and continued, "At that time, I was still married. I was at home when I heard that a family across the street had a child just like what you described."

She said with fear: "That child... is twisted."

Thinking of that little child, she couldn't fall asleep for a long time and was scared.

"I haven't witnessed it myself, so I can't be sure it's the disease I'm talking about."

"Fight! You must fight!"

Zheng Yue looked at her firmly, "If it can be avoided, it must be avoided!"

"You are my elder sister, and she is also my niece. I will not let anything happen to her within my ability."

"Sister believes you."

At this moment, Zheng Yue was extremely grateful that he recognized Wen Qingzhi as his sister.

She is like a treasure. The deeper you dig, the more treasures emerge.

"Ah."

Wen Qingzhi nodded, and thinking that she would not return to Baili Mansion in the future, she said, "If my sister has no better place to go after the matter with Baili Xuance is over, you can stay with me."

"Although this isn't a safe haven, it can provide immediate care for your baby when he or she has a headache or fever."

Zheng Yue smiled, "I've been waiting for you to say that."

"I've been thinking about this for a few days. I like your place, and I like you too. I originally thought I'd discuss whether I could stay with you after I finished with the Baili family, but I didn't expect you to take the initiative to speak."

"Since you've taken the initiative to ask us to stay, I won't refuse!"

She was smiling from ear to ear, with her eyes curved, and she was really happy from the bottom of her heart.

"In that case, you can stay. There are many courtyards in the mansion. I will have someone clean them up later. I don't know how many people from my godfather and godmother will come. Tomorrow I will ask Sister Li and the others to clean up a courtyard. You can stay here for a few more days and don't have to live in the clinic anymore."

"Well."

Zheng Yue nodded. "Oh, right, Ah Zhi. I'm afraid of the cold, so please prepare some charcoal. When the adopted child arrives, have Mammy accompany you to the shop to get the silver."

"I still have this little bit of silver. How can it possibly freeze you?"

"Listen to my sister. Since you are my sister, there is no reason for me to ask you to pay."

Zheng Yue stubbornly said, "I heard from Mammy that it's been snowing these past two days. This hasn't happened in the capital in previous years. You should prepare more charcoal for emergencies."

Zheng Yue also felt it and couldn't help but worry about it.

"Sister, I think the same thing as you."

Wen Qingzhi said, "Mrs. Li said that this was the first time she had seen such heavy snow in all these years. So early this morning, I asked Uncle Wang to build a farm to store charcoal and food."

Zheng Yue nodded and said appreciatively, "You did the right thing. This is the way it should be."

"Even if we can't use it this year, we can still use it next year if we store it. If it's not enough this year, I'm afraid I'll freeze to death."

"yes……"

Speaking of freezing to death, she thought of the flood victims in the south. According to normal thinking, she would think that in the capital, at the feet of the emperor, there is a chance of survival.

But once they rush to the north, many people will probably freeze to death on the way before they arrive.

……

After leaving Zheng Yue, she went to see Xiao Shitou.

Xiao Shitou looks better today than yesterday and is drinking chicken soup.

"aunt!"

Seeing Wen Qingzhi come in, Xiao Shitou called out sweetly.

Jiang Yao asked her to come forward and served her a bowl of soup.

"Mrs. Li made this fresh stew. You should drink some too. It will replenish your body."

"Thank you, sister-in-law."

Wen Qingzhi took a sip and said, "It tastes good."

Jiang Yao saw that she looked a little tired and asked, "Are you feeling unwell?"

"Kind of."

Wen Qingzhi admitted it generously and said, "Sister-in-law, think carefully over the next two days and come up with a name for Little Stone so that he can be included in the family tree."

It’s called a family tree, but it’s just a piece of paper.

There are only a few of them left in the Wen family.

Jiang Yao paused, her lips drooping. "I was hoping your brother would come back and give him a name."

"Extraordinary times call for extraordinary treatment."

Wen Qingzhi said, "After I finish the recent things, I will go to the Jiang family on my brother's behalf to propose marriage and marry my sister-in-law."

"Then you will be legitimate members of the Wen family, and no one in the world will dare to bully you."

Jiang Yao's body began to tremble. She choked with sobs, and two lines of tears slid down her cheeks.

"it is good."

Now, she has accepted her fate.

I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for Wen Qingli to come back, but Xiao Shitou, I can't always be called 'Xiao Shitou'.

"Then, I'll trouble you, Azhi."

"We are a family."

Wen Qingzhi finished the remaining chicken soup and put the bowl down. "Wedding dress... Wait until Xiao Shitou is ready. Sister-in-law, go to the street and pick out something you like. I guess it's too late to order someone to make it."

"it is good."

Jiang Yao nodded, "Let's keep the betrothal gifts and wedding ceremonies simple!"

[ps: "Morning ceremony" is not a typo.]

"A marquis's wife will not be simple."

Wen Qingzhi left in tears after saying this, leaving Jiang Ying staring blankly at her back, her excitement unable to calm down for a long time.

Back in the room, Wen Qingzhi prepared to have a good rest as there were still several tough battles to fight.

As soon as I lay down, the imperial edict arrived.

She knelt in the yard, braving the wind and snow, and accepted the order with a reluctant look on her face.

The imperial edict first praised her and then began to assign tasks. The general meaning was to let her assist Fang Qingbai and Feng Yunxiao in the disaster relief work in Jiangnan.

With a breath caught in her chest, after sending away the eunuch who announced the imperial edict, Wen Qingzhi threw the imperial edict directly into the snow and turned to go into the house.

"These two brothers are like Pixiu, right? They just eat without doing anything and never get enough of taking advantage of others."
