The Rough Hunter’s Little Lucky Wife Novel - Chapter 196

196 Directions

After Yue Jiaojiao and Zhao Zhan thanked the woman, they secretly stuffed a small piece of silver in front of her furnace before they left.

Zhao Zhan protected her as they went to find a palanquin for hire, his eyes alert the entire time.

“Doctor Zhou didn’t even say that this hall was for women who are infertile. No wonder when I brought Li Miao to see Doctor Zhou, he didn’t even need a summary. He only took her pulse and told me everything.”

As Yue Jiaojiao spoke, she tilted her head to look at Zhao Zhan’s cold and stern face and tugged at his wrist. “Zhao Zhan, what are you thinking about?”

!!
“I’m thinking about what that lady said just now.”

As Zhao Zhan spoke, he glared at the person next to him, who was drooling at his lover. His fingers hung by his side and he clenched them into fists.

Looking at his size, many people who wanted to take advantage of his lover silently lowered their heads, not daring to approach him.

“She just said that your eyes were red when you first arrived here.”

Zhao Zhan didn’t know what she had gone through, but it was precise because he didn’t know that his scattered knowledge of her made him even more afraid.

Yue Jiaojiao looked at his furrowed brows and nudged toward him. “I don’t think that’s all,” she teased. “Were you bothered by what that lady said about finding a relative and possibly finding a husband?”

Zhao Zhan stopped in his tracks for a moment and turned his head to look at his lover. His eyes were as pitiful as a big wolfdog that had been abandoned on the street.

Yue Jiaojiao had initially wanted to tease him, but seeing him like this, she immediately raised her hand.

Seeing her raise her hand, Zhao Zhan obediently bent down to avoid the need for her to tiptoe to pat him.

“There, there.” Yue Jiaojiao rubbed her head gently.

“Did you forget that I was very attuned to my emotions? Although I don’t have any recollection of memories, I know that I’m definitely not here to look for my husband.

“Maybe my unintentional planning led me here. In the end, didn’t I find myself a husband who’s perfect in every aspect?”

Zhao Zhan couldn’t help but giggle foolishly, and his entire body was filled with a rippling aura.

Yue Jiaojiao couldn’t bear to see his silly look. She held back her laughter and turned her face away, deliberately speaking in a timid voice, “Zhao Zhan, my feet hurt from walking. When will we get a palanquin?”

Zhao Zhan immediately tensed up. “I can carry you.”

“Don’t, there are people here”

Zhao Zhan looked into her smiling eyes and was stunned for a moment before he smiled back. Then, he directly pulled her in with one arm and half-carried her to the palanquin.

It cost six copper coins to ride from the dock to the Hall of Truth, which was enough to take an ox cart to the mountain gaze three times.

Before they reached the Hall of Truth, they could already see the long queue from afar.

The palanquin carrier had seen this kind of situation many times. He stopped the palanquin at a place not far from the end of the line and said with a fawning expression, “Sir, there are a lot of people in the Hall of Truth every day. I think the two of you must have come from outside the city looking at your baggage. Why don’t I recommend an inn for you to stay in first? If the two of you want to queue up for the Hall of Truth, I can queue for you, but…”

Yue Jiaojiao understood tacitly.

This man must be in business with familiar inns while arranging for a stand-in to earn some extra cash,

“We would like to get Doctor Sun’s number, do you know him?”

“Doctor Sun stopped doing consultations a year ago. He’s been in the Heart Hall. However, his direct apprentice’s medical skills are just as good. If we’re lucky, we might be able to meet Doctor Sun’s apprentice.
