“Grandpa, Grandma, I’m Qinger, I came to see you.”

Standing at the doorway to the east room, Yang Ruqing stopped in her tracks and cleared her throat before calling out loudly inside.

The sound of the two elders talking suddenly stopped. Immediately, the door creaked open, and Old Yang stood in the doorway with his pipe in hand.

"Qing'er, are you back today?" the old man asked.

Yang Ruqing nodded, she lifted the basket in her hand, “I brought some buns for grandma, pork and shiitake mushroom ones, and some with crab roe.”

Lao Yang's face, etched with deep wrinkles, broke into a smile of contentment when he saw the basket.

"You're such a thoughtful one, even after going to Qianyuan County, you still remember me and your grandma. Come in quickly and have a seat." Lao Yang made way for Yang Ruqing and ushered her into the house.

In the eastern room, Tan sat on a rattan chair by the table. She wore black trousers and a thin blue tunic with a stand-up collar. Her feet were in socks, not shoes, and she looked languid and relaxed.

Yang Ruqing greeted Mrs. Tan, and Mrs. Tan replied, "Oh dear, it's kind of you to remember that I mentioned wanting to eat crab roe buns last time. But right now, even if they were meat buns made from dragon meat, I wouldn't have an appetite."

"Why? Is something uncomfortable about her breasts?" Yang Ruohua asked.

Tan shook her head and said, "Nothing feels right. Especially my heart, it's full of worries."

Here, Lao Yang symbolically picked up the teapot on the table, pretending to pour tea, and turned his head to ask Yang Ruqing, "Ruqing, would you like some tea?"

Yang Ruqing quickly shook her head, "We drank at home, I'm not thirsty."

Old Yang then naturally withdrew his hand and sat down beside the table.

“Qinger, you're back just in time. There's a real headache at home right now. With you gone, there's no one to make decisions.” The old man said.

Yang Ruqing smiled, "Grandpa, you flatter me too much. I'm young and haven't seen much of the world. I can't do everything like you think."

Old Yang shook his head. Before he could speak, Tan, who had been reclining in a lounge chair, sprang upright.

"Qing'er, your older brother is only getting married next month. That damned Li XiuXin, she keeps clamoring to have a baby and wants the Old Yang family to take her to live with them so she can give birth. She's really something else."

"Qing'er, come up with an excuse for Grandma and send her away!"

Yang Ruqing's eyes widened in disbelief. "Mom, Li Xi Xin's belly wasn't caused by me! I don't have the ability to take care of her and the child in her womb. You're joking, right?"

"I'm not joking, I'm really annoyed. She keeps trying to have a baby! We can't let her do that at this time!" Mrs. Tan said again.

Yang Ruqing twitched the corner of her mouth, "Mom, you're really making things difficult for people. Think about it, if your stomach gets upset and you need to use the restroom, can you hold it in?"

"It's hard to bear," said Mrs. Tan.

Yang Ruqing said, "That's right. You can't even hold it in when you're in the toilet, let alone giving birth."

Tan's face was clouded with worry as she said, "This July is an ominous month. In our Yang family for generations, no one has ever been born in this month. This child, he shouldn't be born this month, it's bad luck!"

As for Tan's words, Yang Ruoqing could only roll her eyes.

Does having a baby still require checking the lunar calendar for auspicious months?

So, if we go back ten months, would picking a good day to have a wedding ceremony also be important?

Pick a day to have sex that's far from July?

Hehehe...

Who can guarantee a one-shot kill?

Tan's requirements were just too many, Yang Ruohua was too lazy to go along with them.

"I got up before dawn to rush on my way, I'm tired now, so I'll go back first. Grandma and grandpa, remember to heat up the buns for dinner tonight. I'll come visit again another day."

After saying that, Yang Ruqing turned and walked away.

Lao Yang followed behind and reached the door. He lowered his voice and said to Yang Ruqing, "Ruqing, you know a lot of people, can you help find two highly skilled doctors for Li Xiuxin? Yesterday I went to Li Jia Village and saw that her mouth was swollen and cracked red!"

“If this continues, it’ll really hurt the baby in my belly. That's the great-grandson of Old Yang's eldest son!”

"Grandpa, I think Uncle Fu is good enough. If the Li family doesn't want Uncle Fu, then our Yang family will just pay for them to hire their own doctor. I know many doctors, and everyone within ten miles knows them too. It's either Uncle Fu, or one of the doctors from Yi He Chun Clinic in town."

"Go higher, the really good doctors are in the capital city, treating the emperor and empresses. But even those imperial physicians wouldn't come here!"

Old Yang was speechless. He sighed and had to give up.

Yang Ruoqing took two steps, then turned back to Lao Yangtou's side, taking out two taels of silver from her body and putting it into Lao Yangtou's hand.

“Take these two taels of silver, sir. Don’t say it was from me. Give it to the Li family on behalf of our old Yang family. Just say it’s for inviting a doctor.”

"That's all I can do, I can't do any more. I'm leaving now."

Having said that, Yang Ruqing turned and left the backyard without looking back.

Because the front yard was under renovation, Yang Ruohqing didn't want to walk through there, so she went out through a small side door in the back yard of Old Yang's house.

That small side door was put in the wall over a decade ago when she first crossed over and her family of three lived there. The side door led out to a narrow, long alley that was usually used to store firewood and farm tools.

In her adolescent years, between fourteen and fifteen, she and Luofeng Tang were childhood sweethearts, their hearts first fluttering with love.

Many times he sent her love, it was in this long alley where they parted.

I first gave him my first kiss right here on this street.

This alleyway was, to her, unlike any other.

Before Liu could even step out of the alley, she came chasing after him from behind.

"Qing'er, wait for me..." She panted as she called out.

Yang Ruqing turned around, "What's up?"

Liu said, “Qing’er, you really don’t care about this?”

Yang Ruqing said, "Why should I care? It has nothing to do with me!"

One by one, I don't know what they're thinking.

"You're really generous, giving me two taels of silver at once. Two taels of silver wouldn't even cover a month's worth of food for me here!" she said. "That has nothing to do with me," Yang Ruqing replied.

“I’m leaving, Fourth Aunt. Go find someone else to gossip with.” After saying that, Yang Ruqing left the alley without looking back.

I originally thought I could linger in this alley for a while, reminiscing about the past, but Liu shi disrupted my plans again.

"Father, mother, uncle, aunt, I've discussed it with Tang YaZi. In two days it will be the seventh lunar month, and I plan to finish the festivities for the seventh lunar month. Then Tang YaZi will return to the military camp, and I will set off for Yangzhou."

At night, Sun cooked rice and invited the Lao Luo family to have dinner.

After dinner, Yang Ruoqing told the elders present about her decision.

"Going to Yangzhou? Is it to pick up Dazhi?" Sun shi asked in surprise.

>

Yang Ruqing pondered for a moment and said, "Whether we can bring him back, I can't guarantee. It depends on Da Zhi's own choice. The reason I went to Yangzhou is because I had other things to do, of course, this matter also involves Da Zhi."
