376 Clingy (Part 1)
Li Xiangjun felt like she was in a dream.
In her dream, nothing had happened to the Fang family, and she had not rushed to Bei City because of this, she did not get separated from Fang Tianliu.
They were still a loving couple.
“Xiangjun, wake up.”
There was someone calling out to her, but she felt as if she had fallen into the deep sea. She tried her best to move in the direction of the voice, but she couldn’t reach the other party.
“Xiangjun…”
“Miss Li…”
The sounds were chaotic. Li Xiangjun used all her strength and struggled to hit the glass that separated her and the noise.
“Her eyelids moved.”
“Are you awake?”
“Doctor Sun, please take her pulse.”
Her eyelids were heavy and her consciousness was barely hanging on the thread. She could feel that someone had touched her wrist.
She tried to move her fingers, but the thought made her feel extremely tired.
“Although Miss Li’s pulse is still a little weak, her life will no longer be in danger.” Doctor Sun let go a sigh of relief after taking her pulse. “After a few months of careful recuperation, her body will slowly recover. Make sure that she doesn’t worry or get angry.”
“Thank you, Doctor Sun, most of the precious medicinal herbs in your courtyard are empty. Make a list, and I’ll go to town to get them.”
Li Xiangjun wanted to say something, but after trying hard for a while, her vision turned black and she fell asleep again. When she woke up again, she struggled to open her eyes.
Yue Jiaojiao was sitting by her bed. Seeing that she had woken up, she was both surprised and happy. “Xiangjun, how are you feeling? Are you feeling uncomfortable?Let me call Doctor Sun over.”
“Jiaojiao…”
Li Xiangjun opened her mouth and realized that she couldn’t make a sound.
“You’ve been unconscious for twenty days. Drink some water to moisten your throat first.” Yue Jiaojiao stood up, walked to the side, and brought a glass of water over. “Take your time, then slowly tell me how you feel. There’s no rush.”
“Ah…” Li Xiangjun couldn’t drink anymore. She endured the discomfort in her throat and said, “Where’s the child? Is she alright?”
She still remembered that when the child was born, the midwife said that the child did not cry and that Doctor Sun was trying to save the child.
“Don’t worry.” Yue Jiaojiao saw that her face was covered in tears and hurriedly picked up a handkerchief to wipe it away. “The child is fine. I heard from Fang Tianliu that she weak for the first few days when she was born, but she’s much stronger now.”
“Li Miao is feeding the baby now. She’s growing well.”
Li Miao’s own children were over a year old, and they had not been weaned yet.
Li Xiangjun was in too much danger at that time, and Fang Tianliu’s salary could not spare the time to find a nanny. Therefore, Li Miao took the child back and fed her for a few days.
Later on, Li Xiangjun’s condition stabilized and with the return of Yue Jiaojiao and Zhao Zhan, Li Miao developed feelings for her child. Fang Tianliu then gave her silver to help feed her child until she could eat porridge and minced meat.
“Have you given the child a name?”
Yue Jiaojiao stuffed two pillows under her body so that she could lean more comfortably. “I heard that Tianliu named her Fang Luoning, nickname Ningning. Fang Tianliu hopes that this child will have a peaceful and happy life.”
“Luoning…”
Li Xiangjun repeated it in a low voice, her eyes curved.
“Sounds good. Where is he?”
“You mean Fang Tianliu? He’s gone to Huai County. Judging by the time, he should be back soon.” Yue Jiaojiao looked up at the sky outside. “There was heavy rain two days ago, so the roads are slippery. He might come back later than usual.”
“Why did he go there?”
“We’ll see.”
Yue Jiaojiao nodded her head slightly. She skillfully took out a porcelain bottle from a small wooden box by her bed and poured two pills into her palm. “Since you’re awake, I won’t dissolve these pills with warm water today. Doctor Sun said that would damage the medicinal properties.”
Li Xiangjun did not resist and obediently took the pill and swallowed it.
Her current body was not even as strong as it was before she gave birth. If she did not try her best to hold on, she would have fallen unconscious .
“If you’re tired, you can take a nap first.” Yue Jiaojiao could see that Li Xiangjun’s eyelids were struggling and said, “When Fang Tianliu returns, I’ll definitely get him to wake you up.”
Doctor Zhou had also taken out a few precious herbs to use on Li Xiangjun.
Since he couldn’t buy them in Wangshan Town, Fang Tianliu went to Huai County to buy them.
“I’m not too tired yet, I can wait a little longer.”
She slept for 20 days. Li Xiangjun pinched her palm to wake her up from the pain she felt all over.
She was afraid that if she fell asleep and didn’t wake up, she wouldn’t never be able to see him ever again.
