367 Alone (Part 1)

“When he’s two years old, I’ll hire two teachers for him. One will teach him Kung Fu, and the other will teach him the four books and five classics of Confucianism.”

Yue Jiaojiao cast him a sidelong glance before shaking her head. “Forget it. Zhao Nian is easy to take care of. With you and Madam Qin’s help, I never had to put in much effort.”

Although she had always been by Zhao Nian’s side, she always had either Madam Qin or Zhao Zhan by her side. It was rare for her to take care of the child alone like today.

Zhao Zhan was a little disappointed hearing his lover’s refusal.

“I’ve asked the carpenter to make his cottage. It can be put together with our bed. It will be delivered tomorrow. We can put him on that small bed soon.”

Halfway through his sentence, he observed Yue Jiaojiao’s expression and added, “I don’t know how to control my strength when I am sleeping. It would be bad if I accidentally pressed him down.”

This man’s thoughts were clearly all revealed on his face.

“Zhao Zhan, have you ever thought about what if…”

“There is no what if.” Zhao Zhan did not wait for her to finish before he continued, “We only need Zhao Nian.”

No matter what, he would not let her experience the pain of giving birth again.

Yue Jiaojiao paused for a moment before slowly nodding her head. “Alright.”

“At the end of spring next year, we’ll set off for the capital.” Zhao Zhan put his arm around Yue Jiaojiao’s shoulder. “But before we leave, I still have something to do. I’ll have to go to Huai County in two days.”

“Should I go with you? We can bring your family along. We’ll leave the house to Xiangjun and the others.” The more Yue Jiaojiao spoke, the more she felt that this matter was feasible. “We’ll all leave so that they can have time to themselves. Doctor Sun and the two of them will stay at home. Xiangjun needs someone to take care of her. When the time comes, we won’t be around. Fang Tianliu will definitely not stand by and do nothing. Besides, we’ve left Doctor Sun at home before. We won’t have to worry too much about him.”

Zhao Zhan had originally planned to bring Fang Tianliu with him to Huai County, but since his lover had said so, he naturally wouldn’t object. In any case, even if Fang Tianliu didn’t go, it wasn’t like he wouldn’t be able to manage everything on his own.

“Alright, the day after tomorrow, I’ll send someone to Huai County to clean up the house. We’ll be there for a few more days. I can also accompany you for a good stroll.”

Yue Jiaojiao nodded her head repeatedly. She could take advantage of this opportunity to go out and get some fresh air.

During dinner, Zhao Zhan told them about his plans to go to Huai County.

Fang Tianliu opened his mouth, “Why aren’t you bringing me along to Huai County?”

“I originally wanted you to come with me.” Zhao Zhan picked up a piece of meat with his chopsticks and placed it in Yue Jiaojiao’s bowl. As he ladled soup for her, he said, “After thinking about it, we felt like it would be too worrying to only have Xiangjun and Doctor Sun at home. If you don’t want to stay at home, then you can come with us to Huai County.”

Madam Zhang had roughly understood the dispute between Li Xiangjun and Fang Tianliu from Madam Qin. When she heard this, she casually said, “I originally planned to leave a servant to take care of Miss Li, but she has a tough personality and doesn’t like to let others help her. She insisted on being alone. This is the first time I’ve seen such a strong-minded and gentle girl.”

Yue Jiaojiao had been paying attention to Fang Tianliu’s expression. Seeing that he was hesitating, she added, “That’s right. Doctor Zhou still has to prescribe medicine for Xiangjun every month because she’s weak. Speaking of which, the pregnancy is giving her a hard time…”

Zhao Zhan instantly understood Yue Jiaojiao’s intentions. As he stood up to change her handkerchief, he asked, “Fang Tianliu, we’ll be setting off tomorrow. If you want to come with us, I’ll book an extra room.”

“Forget it.” Fang Tianliu finished the rice in his bowl in a few mouthfuls. “I just thought about it. Now that our business is doing well, we can’t leave without having someone at home to guard the place. Those two silly dogs can’t protect Doctor Sun. I’d better stay at home.”

Everyone else at the table agreed. “That’s great. Now that Fang Tianliu is at home, we can rest assured. Otherwise, if we go out with no one home, we won’t have a good time.”

Fang Tianliu’s mouth twitched.

He wasn’t st*pid. After living in Jiangnan for so long, he had become much smarter than before.

If he still couldn’t tell that these people were doing it on purpose, he might as well change his surname to Zhao.

However, it was true that he was worried so he let them off and used it as an excuse as well.
