Cao Xi retched in the morning, and Qin Zhao insisted on taking her to the medical clinic. There were many people in the medical clinic, and it was already two-quarters of an hour before the queue arrived.
Qin Zhao helped Cao Xi sit down, "Doctor, my wife...".
"Shut up"
"Hand out"
Qin Zhao did not dare to speak anymore, so Cao Xi had to hold out his hand obediently. This was an old man nearly fifty years old with a serious expression.
Putting his hands on Cao Xi's pulse, he didn't say a word for a long time. Cao Xi was so frightened that he thought he was seriously ill.
The old doctor took back his hand and said, "Pregnant, more than three months old, in good health, next one."
The old doctor's words were like thunder on the ground, and Cao Xi was blown away.
Qin Zhao was stunned for a moment and said excitedly: "Are you really pregnant?"
"Doctor, doctor, is my wife really pregnant?"
The old doctor was impatient and shouted to the crowd, "Next one."
The patient behind him patted Cao Xi with his hand, "Madam, it's my turn."
Cao Xi came back to her senses and quickly asked the doctor, what should I pay attention to during pregnancy?
The old doctor couldn't bear it anymore and glared angrily.
"Don't get in the way, buy a book and study it yourself, next one"
There were indeed many patients, and Qin Zhao and Cao Xi had to leave the hospital.
Qin Zhao left the hospital and hugged Cao Xi, as happy as a child. After a moment, he hurriedly let go of his arm and asked cautiously.
"It didn't hurt you"
Cao Xi raised a happy smile on his lips and gently stroked his belly.
"Our children are here."
Qin Zhao held her little face excitedly and said, "Yes, there is our child there."
On the way home, the two of them looked like fools and laughed at each other from time to time.
Cao Xi was like an old Buddha, being carefully supported by Qin Zhao. People who knew Qin Zhao couldn't help but sigh, Lord Zhizhou was so kind to his wife.
.............................
Qin Zhao truthfully reported the specific situation of Luzhou City to the court, hoping that the court would issue relief funds. Qin Zhao also checked Luzhou City's account books in recent years.
Qin Zhao rubbed his aching head and said, "You are really poor if you are poor."
It was already very late when Qin Zhao returned to the bedroom, "Why aren't you asleep yet?"
He frowned when he saw Cao Xi leaning on the bedrail with a book in his hand.
Cao Xi was startled by Qin Zhao's voice. She glared at Qin Zhao angrily and said, "I was shocked."
Qin Zhao wanted to laugh. She blamed him for being fascinated by it. Qin Zhao took out the book.
"Why did you read this book "Luzhou Chronicles"? I remember that you are not interested in this kind of book?"
"If you don't let me do this, or if you don't let me do that, I still have to find something to kill time."
Cao Xi took the opportunity to complain that since she became pregnant, Qin Zhao has taken over all the housework and is busy all alone. Recently, her eyes have become red and bloodshot.
Qin Zhao: "You can't read it too late, it's bad for your eyes." He put the book out of Cao Xi's reach.
Cao Xi saw his little thoughts and glared at him fiercely.
"Books say that Luzhou City is rich in sweet potatoes, but I see that the sweet potato business in Luzhou City is not very good."
Cao Xi wanted to buy some ingredients today, but when she visited several stores, she found that sweet potatoes were piled high on the ground and the prices were relatively cheap, but deep processing of sweet potatoes was not available.
After asking, I found out that Luzhou City was invaded by barbarians all the year round, making it difficult for the people to live a stable life, so businessmen were unwilling to come and invest.
"If you are pregnant, don't think about these things."
Qin Zhao and Zhang Meng studied for many days to find out the cause of Luzhou City's disease. Foreign enemies were an important factor preventing economic development.
If we want long-term peace and stability, we must strengthen the defense of Luzhou City so that those barbarians can never come back.
Cao Xi glanced at Qin Zhao angrily and pulled out a stack of paper from behind.
"This is for you. I hope it will be helpful to you."
Qin Zhao recently studied the defense of Luzhou City. She couldn't help him much, but she could still help him a little.
Cao Xi had written some military theory content based on military-themed movies and TV shows, and he didn't know if he could help them.
Qin Zhao was a little confused at first. He took the paper and looked at it carefully and was shocked. He held the paper tightly and his heart beat faster.
"Who gave this to you?" Qin Zhao knew Cao Xi's words, but he couldn't believe that she had come up with these.
Facing Qin Zhao's questions, Cao Xi felt a little guilty. She lowered her head and touched her nose.
"I'm just imagining it all, just talking about it on paper, but I don't know if it will be of any use to you?"
Qin Zhao suddenly hugged Cao Xi's head and kissed his forehead heavily.
"Useful, so useful, you are my lucky star"
Luzhou City's defense plan made Qin Zhao anxious and clueless. Luzhou City was like a willow basket, full of loopholes.
Now that Cao Xi's plan has opened up new ideas for him, how can he not be excited?
Qin Zhao was so excited that he couldn't sleep. He took out the paper and looked at it from time to time. Cao Xi finally couldn't bear it anymore and yelled loudly.
"If you don't stop, I'll go to the study and sleep." If I had known this, I might as well have given it to him tomorrow.
Qin Zhao didn't dare to move. He was afraid of sleeping in a separate room, so he suppressed his excitement and didn't fall asleep until early in the morning.
When Cao Xi woke up the next day, he found that Qin Zhao and the stack of papers had disappeared. Cao Xi was relieved.
In the government office, Zhang Meng was holding the paper, his hands were shaking, and his eyes were staring at Qin Zhao expectantly.
"Who gave this to you? What a wonderful idea."
Qin Zhao saw that he had a look that said, "You have never seen the world." He said proudly: "It's not an important content. I can't tell you who wrote it."
Hum, if you want to spy on my wife, there is no way.
Zhang Meng couldn't see his arrogance and snorted coldly.
"After all, it's just talk on paper, and we still need to explore everything ourselves."
Of course Qin Zhao knew that these things had never been practiced. He went downhill, "then General Zhang would have to worry more."
Seeing him being so submissive, Zhang Meng felt much better. He took the paper and thought about it over and over and pointed out the shortcomings. The two of them chatted all day long without knowing it.
As the sun set, the two of them changed their decadence and said goodbye to each other with smiles.
When Qin Zhao came back, Cao Xi was digging the ground in the yard. This frightened Qin Zhao and he hurriedly stepped forward and took the hoe from her hand.
"You dare to swing a hoe even though you are pregnant, you are not afraid of getting out of the way."
Cao Xi: “I want to try growing sweet potatoes”
"Why are you so disobedient? You just want sweet potatoes to sell in the market?"
Looking at her slightly bulging belly, Qin Zhao helped Cao Xi sit down uneasily.
"Haha, that's right. They say that one pregnancy makes you stupid for three years." Cao Xi said embarrassedly, but she actually wanted to move.
Cao Xi tilted his head and changed the subject, "Does the plan I gave you work?".
"The plan is very good. Zhang Meng and I just studied it and he implemented it."
Qin Zhao turned over the ground in a few clicks. With a slight sweat on his face, he put the hoe in his hand in the corner.
Qin Zhao: "Let's buy some servants this afternoon. I can't be by your side all the time, so I'm a little worried."
Cao Xi thought to herself that it was time to buy some servants. She was pregnant and needed someone to take care of her.
"Then let's go after lunch."
The two had a simple lunch, rested for a while, and then went to Yahang.
Because cholera had just been eradicated in Luzhou City, there were many people selling their sons and daughters.
Seeing people like commodities for purchase, Cao Xi felt somewhat conflicted.
"Sir, madam, this is our new batch. Do you think there is any compatibility?"
Yapo led the way, and the slaves on both sides either bowed their heads or were speechless, while others were proactive.
