She got pregnant after the swap marriage, and the scumbag's family regretted it so much they cr

Before going to Su Luozhai, the two went to Jimintang by detour.

Luo Changshan saw that the people who pushed open the curtain were Lu Huan and his wife.

The surprise on her face was impossible to hide.

"Huan'er, you're here! I just happened to need to talk to you!"

"Looking for me? What's up?"

Luo Changshan didn't stand on ceremony with her, "Do you still have that cold medicine you sent before?"

Lu Huan raised an eyebrow.

After using it on Fang Xiaoyu before, she specially sent her a small bottle so as not to give herself away.

Not many, only about twenty in total.

But what I told Dr. Luo back then was that it could only be used on patients with high fever due to wind-cold that were unresponsive to other medications.

She asked, somewhat surprised, "You used it all up so quickly?"

Luo Changshan's expression was somewhat solemn.

"We ran out of it a few days ago. Even with me intentionally controlling the dosage, seven patients still died."

A continuous high fever lasting several days, coupled with poor diet, can easily cause a person to become mentally impaired, if not die.

"How much do you want?" Lu Huan didn't mince words. There was a whole box of this medicine in her spatial storage; she wouldn't hesitate to take it all out.

The source is difficult to explain. After all, Dr. Luo was very familiar with his maternal grandfather.

"What arrogance!" Luo Changshan was amused by Lu Huan's words. "Do you think you can produce a thousand or eight hundred pills if I want them?"

Lu Huan tilted her head, did some calculations, and nodded. "Sure!"

"You! You just know how to make fun of this old man!"

Luo Changshan had wanted to go see Lu Huan a couple of days ago, but the clinic was busy with critically ill patients and he couldn't leave.

Unexpectedly, Lu Huan delivered himself to their doorstep.

He stopped beating around the bush and asked, "Or, how about sending over a hundred pills first?"

When Luo Changshan first obtained the medicine, he didn't dare to use it. It was only when he encountered a critically ill patient with a long-term, incurable illness that he suggested giving it a try.

The results were unexpectedly good.

This number was also something he had calculated.

After all, the origin of this medicine is still unknown, and who knows if it can be supplied continuously.

In fact, according to Luo Changshan's idea, it would be best to obtain the medicine formula, even if it cost several thousand taels of silver.

Faced with Dr. Luo's cautious probing, Lu Huan smiled slightly.

"Is one hundred pills enough? Otherwise, I'll have Ayan send over two hundred pills!"

"No, no!" Luo Changshan waved his hands repeatedly. "How can I let your husband make the trip and let... Xiaoman go with you!"

“Didn’t you say before that the clinic was short-staffed? Ayan can ride a horse and it only takes half an hour to go back and forth.”

Luo Changshan hesitated for a long time before finally agreeing.

A hint of guilt appeared on his face. "Don't worry, I've kept a careful record of every penny of income from this medicine! I just haven't had time to do the accounting lately."

Lu Huan didn't expect to make much money, and waved his hand: "It's okay, things will be fine after this busy period."

Luo Changshan was not so optimistic.

The heavy snow lasted for seven days. The reason why we only used up those special pills two days ago was entirely due to the batch of medicinal herbs that Lu Huan had donated earlier.

Otherwise, there will only be more critically ill patients.

However, many of the commonly used medicinal herbs in that batch were almost gone.

If we don't bring some more back, I'm afraid we won't even be able to prescribe a complete set of medicine.

Luo Changshan's inner anxiety was reflected on his face.

Lu Huan asked, "Dr. Luo, is there anything else I can do to help?"

"Do you have connections? Can you get some more medicinal herbs?"

He explained the predicament the clinic was facing: "This is the current situation; the entire city of Yanjing is lacking basic medicinal materials for colds."

The things Dr. Luo mentioned are indeed common, and can even be found everywhere in the wild.

The problem is, it's winter now. The north is cold, and those medicinal herbs have long since frozen to death.

None of this could stump Lu Huan. As long as there were seeds, they could be planted anywhere in the space.

These are all common annual or biennial medicinal herbs, which can be harvested in just two or three days in the space.

However, she wouldn't speak with too much certainty at this point.

"I do have some connections, but I need to ask around first."

Luo Changshan didn't rely entirely on Lu Huan; he just wanted to have more options.

He nodded. "Thank you for your trouble!"

Lu Huan looked at Doctor Luo with amusement, "Given our friendship, do we really need to use the word 'thank you'?"

“That’s true,” Luo Changshan smiled with relief, reverting to his previous arrogant old man. “You and Yan boy came today to have your pulse checked?”

"Correct!"

"No."

The two said in unison.

But what they said was completely the opposite.

Lu Huan's eyes widened, and she said angrily, "I don't feel uncomfortable at all! My head hasn't hurt since!"

"Whether it's good or not isn't up to you to decide! Don't forget, you're carrying a baby! You can't be too careful!"

Luo Changshan watched the two bicker with a smile, finally getting a chance to relax for a little while.

He took out a brand-new silk handkerchief, spread it on the pulse pillow, and interjected, "Give me your hand, let me take a look first."

The two were worried about disturbing Dr. Luo's pulse diagnosis, so they just stared at each other with wide eyes and didn't say anything more.

Luo Changshan was all smiles at first, but his expression quickly became much more serious.

Gao Yan noticed out of the corner of his eye that Lu Huan's expression had changed, and he thought that Lu Huan had really diagnosed something serious. He was extremely anxious and no longer cared about arguing with Lu Huan.

"Dr. Luo, is there something wrong?"

Luo Changshan didn't say a word, but simply placed his left index finger between his lips, signaling him to be quiet.

In the short span of half an incense stick's time, Gao Yan felt as if ten years had passed.

Luo Changshan withdrew his hand before daring to speak, "Doctor, what's wrong with my wife? Is there really something wrong with her?"

Luo Changshan's brow relaxed, feeling both annoyed and amused.

"What are you thinking! Don't worry, your wife is perfectly healthy, why are you worrying so much!"

Gao Yan muttered aggrievedly, "Then why were you frowning just now!"

The timeframe was still too short, and Luo Changshan was unsure, so he didn't plan to bring it up at this moment.

He simply told Lu Huan, "Your health and the baby are both very good, so just keep it up. Come back for a check-up in a month to make sure everything is alright."

Gao Yan silently noted down the date in his mind.

Lu Huan had a guess in her mind. Since Dr. Luo hadn't said it, she could only keep it to herself for the time being.

Otherwise, it would be hard to explain why she knew she was pregnant with twins even before the doctor.

The thought that in another month, there would be no need to hide the good news from Gao Yan anymore was very grating.

Lu Huan felt happy.

As a result, the two of them bought nearly twenty taels of pastries at Su Luozhai.

The snacks are served in a four-tiered food box.

Lu Huan worried that if she tied the pastries to the saddle, they would probably be crushed into crumbs by the time she got home.

She could only hold him in her arms.

Seeing her cautious manner, Gao Yan smiled and said, "When we bought it before, we didn't realize it was too much. But now that I'm holding it in my arms, it feels like I'm about to give birth."

Lu Huan glared at him, "You're always teasing me!"

After Gao Yan left with two hundred pills, Lu Huan locked the door and entered the space.

The medicinal herb seeds I bought at Jimintang have now grown lush and green.
