Chapter 317: Summer and Winter
Lin Jiaojiao was shaking her head and burping. Lan Jiu hurried to the counter, poured a cup of tea and handed it to her mouth.
"Miss, you will feel better if you drink some water."
She took it and drank it all. After waiting for a while, she thought the burping was really over and showed a look of joy on her face. But then the next burp came.
"Burp, it's so uncomfortable, I won't eat so much again, it's too much."
Lan Jiu said worriedly: "Miss, you have indigestion."
She nodded: "Yeah, it's okay, it will be fine in a while, let's go eat first and don't keep Yizhi waiting anxiously."
The two of them walked towards the back door. Lan Jiu saw that she was hiccuping and came over to her and said.
"Miss, would you like to try pressing the Neiguan acupoint? This can relieve hiccups."
She stopped and looked sideways at him, confused.
"Neiguan acupoint? Where should I press it?"
Lan Jiu reached out and lifted her left hand, making her palm face up, then put three fingers of his right hand together and placed them on the horizontal lines of her wrist.
"The midpoint of the intersection of the ring finger is the Neiguan acupoint."
He lowered his eyes and explained it to her carefully, then pressed with his fingers, first lightly and then heavily.
Lin Jiaojiao learned seriously until he let go of her wrist. Then she reacted and looked up with surprise.
"Wow, I really don't want to fight anymore. You're so powerful, Jiu. It's amazing." After saying that, he started pressing the same way he had learned before.
"What's so magical?"
A head popped up from the kitchen door not far ahead. It was Lin Yizhi.
She raised her smiling eyes and walked quickly towards Lin Yizhi. Lan Jiu looked at her back, put away his lost expression, and quickly followed her.
Originally, Lin Jiaojiao wanted to hold Lin Yizhi's hand to explain what had just happened, but she found that there was a table of men sitting in the yard behind him and having a meal. She had to give up holding his hand and demonstrated it with her own hand.
"That's it. After pressing it, I stopped hiccuping. Isn't it magical?"
Lin Yizhi led her into the kitchen. There were three dishes and a soup on the table, all of which were cooked with the leftover ingredients from lunch.
He picked up the wet towel he had prepared earlier and wiped her hands, his face full of helplessness.
"Did you really eat all the potato chips?"
Lin Jiaojiao, who was full of interest just now, became deflated when she heard this question and touched her nose in disappointment.
"I'm done, but I could still use a bowl of soup."
When he thought of her eating the whole bag of food, he thought that she must have had an indigestion and was feeling uncomfortable. He wanted to scold her, but when he saw her like that, he couldn't say anything.
Finally he sighed, and thousands of words turned into one sentence.
"Don't do this next time."
She smiled and nodded repeatedly to assure him, then she saw Lan Jiu had already prepared the meal and put it on the table. She took his hand politely, walked to the table, pressed his shoulders to make him sit down, and then massaged his shoulders.
"You've worked hard all afternoon. You must be hungry. Come on, eat. I'll stand for a while to digest. I'll just have a bowl of soup later."
"Okay, miss. I won't be polite."
Lan Jiu sat opposite them. Although he said it was polite, he still didn't pick up his chopsticks.
Seeing this, Lin Yizhi had no choice but to move his chopsticks first. Lan Jiu then picked up the chopsticks and started eating. Lin Jiaojiao then breathed a sigh of relief. Sometimes Teacher Xiaozhi could be very strict. Ever since the last incident, he would be very nervous whenever she was not feeling well.
But it can't be said that he was making a fuss, he was just too afraid of losing.
Before she pressed a few times, her left hand was held by him.
"Okay, my wife, please sit down too."
After eating and resting for a while, Lin Jiaojiao and the other two went home in a carriage.
When they arrived at the doorstep, Lin Jiaojiao got off the carriage first, while Lin Yizhi went to the farm to teach how to fry potato chips.
She watched Lan Jiu driving the carriage towards the farm. She couldn't wait any longer and rushed to the gate and went straight to the toilet.
After solving the major issue in her life, she finally walked out tremblingly, holding on to the wall, her feet numb from squatting.
She felt like she stank all over.
She wanted to take a shower, but Lan Jiu hadn't come back yet, and Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu hadn't finished school yet. It is really easy to go from frugality to luxury, but difficult to go from luxury to frugality.
She walked slowly towards the kitchen, not knowing whether Uncle Zhao was there. If he was, she could ask him to help boil some water.
But before she had taken a few steps, she ran into Jiang Huai coming out of his room, followed by Zhu Xue who was also coming towards her.
Jiang Huai didn't expect her to be standing at the door of the toilet. Although this place was a bit awkward, since they met, he should say hello. He was halfway there when Lin Jiaojiao called him.
"Stop! Cousin, do you want to go to the bathroom?"
He was stunned. He was indeed preparing to go to the toilet, but seeing her asking him like that, he didn't know whether he should say yes or no.
"No."
In the end, he answered against his will, because he saw that she didn't want him to go to the bathroom. Sure enough, after he answered, he saw that she was visibly relieved.
After figuring out why, he smiled faintly.
"I want to go for a walk in the backyard, Zhuxue, let's go."
He nodded at Lin Jiaojiao and turned to leave. Zhu Xue was still a little confused and followed him. Didn’t they come out to use the toilet?
Lin Jiaojiao thought that there was a toilet in the backyard, so she hoped that they would go to the toilet in the backyard if they wanted to. After all, she was terribly smelly after she pooped, so it was okay if no one saw them. If others went to the toilet, they would just go, since they wouldn't know the smell was left by her.
Zhu Xue followed Jiang Huai through the moon-shaped gate to the backyard, walked through the corridor to the edge of the rockery pond, and faintly heard voices. He raised his eyes and looked towards the pavilion.
"The young master is Master Lin, the first doctor and the third doctor. No wonder the courtyard is so quiet. It turns out they are all here."
Jiang Huai followed his gaze and it seemed that this toilet could not be used.
Tongfu reminded Fu Qiu who was feeding the fish, "Husband, the cousin is here."
Fu Qi seemed to be a little uninterested to begin with. He already knew the names that sister Jiaojiao had given to his eldest brother's twins. Although both names could be used for boys and girls, he knew that his eldest brother was pregnant with twins, a boy and a girl.
Sister Jiaojiao got these two names. People who know the gender just think that it is a great choice. One is summer and the other is winter, echoing each other. Both are based on the heart and are connected to each other.
He heard Jiang Huai coming, looked at him, smiled and waved.
"Brother Huai, here!"
When Lin's father and Lin Yiyan heard the noise, they put down their needlework and looked over. They were currently sewing the names of Dabao and Xiaobao on their clothes.
Jiang Huai walked up the steps and came in front of them. He greeted them with a smile and could clearly see the words written by Lin Yiyan.
"Is this a name?"
"Yeah, Xia You and Dong Yi."
He looked at Lin Yiyan's happy face and did not ask him why he was so sure it would be twins.
Because everyone around has already determined that it will be twins, and they are all looking forward to the birth of the twin babies.
"Xia Youdongyi is a good name."
He came and sat down next to Fu Qi and started throwing fish food into the pond with him. He saw the person next to him had his head resting on the railing again.
"What's going on here?"
Fu Qi replied listlessly: "I don't know if Sister Jiaojiao and Second Brother are back."
He wanted to ask her the name of their child.
