Chapter 99
It was already midnight after returning from Li's house. Several people had eaten at Li's house, and after washing up, they would sleep in their room.

Yu Sheng took off his clothes and went to bed, hugging Liu Zhi, "Daughter-in-law, what is the name of our child?"

Liu Zhiwo laughed in his arms, "I don't know male or female, let's talk about it after giving birth."

"Let's discuss it first."

Yu Sheng put his hand on her stomach and touched it lightly. He said in a low voice, "I hope it's a girl."

"When the time comes, I will save money to buy you clothes and food."

"She called me daddy tenderly. When I think of that scene, I can't help but want to laugh."

Liu Zhi smiled, turned slightly sideways, and let him touch it better, "Sure, if you say it's a girl, it's a girl, then you can get up."

Yu Sheng seemed to have already thought about his name, so he said in a low voice, "Yu Ran."

Hearing this, Liu Zhi was stunned for a moment, looked up at him slightly, then hugged him tightly, and whispered: "This name is not good, my father named it for me after the boy's name."

"Nice, it's the best name I've ever heard."

Without any hesitation, Yu Sheng continued: "I don't want my daughter to join the army, but I hope she is as brave as you and not afraid of hardships."

Liu Zhi also didn't want her child to join the army, regardless of gender, the responsibility of the Liu family had ended with her.

"it is good."

……

The next day, the weather was not so hot, Yu Sheng started to sell cakes again, ice cream was also sold, Yu He and Xu Hua were still making cold noodles, and the business was okay.

I kept talking about inviting people, but no one was invited, and it was not that they were not invited. Some people came to work for a day or two and wanted to be lazy.

Probably because Yu Sheng and Liu Zhi were good at talking.

Liu Zhi helped to load the pancakes, but Yu Sheng was afraid that she would be tired from standing, so he took a stool and let her sit and do it.

The person who bought the pancakes knew that Liu Zhi was pregnant, so they approached to take the pancakes.

When Liu Zhi was free, she saw that the shop they had rented on the opposite side was open, and it expired a few days ago.

She glanced at it, but didn't take it to heart. After a while, Zhou Sun came over and said, "Those couple want to sell pancakes, they must be robbing you of business."

Hearing this, Xu Hua ran to the door and took a look, and sure enough, she was making pancakes on the stove.

Liu Zhi was not worried about robbing business. To make money was originally made by whoever had the ability, as long as it wasn't stealing other people's things.

"It's alright, they're pancakes, we bake them."

"That's true. Their pancakes are all burnt. It's definitely not delicious, but it's really cheap. It's a lot of money. I'm worried that they're making money to make up for it." Zhou Sun pouted.

After talking for a while, she went back to work.

Yu Sheng poured a mouthful of water on Liu Zhi and said in a low voice, "Are you tired? Go inside and sleep for a while when you are tired."

"Not tired."

Liu Zhi patted the stool beside her, and said, "I'm sitting."

"It's you who made smoothies and pancakes."

She thought of something, and said again: "Why don't we buy two people back, and hold the contract in our hands, and we're not afraid of them getting into trouble."

Hearing this, Yu Sheng can think about it, "Okay, then go to the county seat tomorrow."

What did he think of, "Now that we have money at home, we can open an inn and sell mutton soup pots."

"In winter, mutton warms up, and many people eat it, and no one in the town sells it like this."

Mutton soup pots are common in Xu'an Chenggen, and many soldiers like to eat mutton for drinking.

Liu Zhi was also thinking about what business to do. Hearing what he said, she thought about it for a while, "Okay, I'll ask a cook to do it then, so don't meddle in, or you'll be very tired."

"I know, I will be a hands-off shopkeeper in the future."

Yu Sheng didn't plan to be the cook at the inn. After all, Liu Zhi's belly was getting bigger, and he wanted to spend more time with her.

He thought of something, and said again: "Do you want to eat mutton soup pot at night?"

He didn't say it was okay, but when he said Liu Zhi, he felt a little craving for it, she nodded, "Then I'll go buy it."

"No, there will be a lot of people here and it will be crowded. I'll go buy them. There are more than 20 pancakes, enough for me to come back."

After Yu Sheng finished speaking, he went out. There were many people in the market, and he went to the one that specializes in buying mutton.

He happened to see old man Yu selling vegetables next to him. After seeing it, he quickly moved away and said to the mutton stall owner, "I want three catties of lamb chops and two catties of lamb."

"You are the owner of the bakery shop, aren't you? I'll bring it to you later. It's definitely fresh. There's no lamb chops hanging here."

Hearing this, Yu Sheng nodded, "How much money?"

"It's 75 coins in total, don't worry, we'll deliver it later, you can give it later." The stall owner said with a smile.

Yu Sheng said in a low voice, "It's troublesome."

"No trouble, no trouble, you're welcome." The stall owner waved his hand.

Seeing Yu Sheng leave, the old man Yu was not in a good mood. Yu Sheng and the others could buy five catties of mutton now, and he was still selling vegetables.

It only sells seven coins in one morning.

If they had been nicer to him in the past, it would be theirs now.

When he was about to return to the shop, Liu Yu found him and gave him a small box, "This is the birth-protection medicine sent by the master and his wife. They said that the previous birth-protecting medicine should not be taken."

"I'm afraid the weather will be hot and the smell of medicine will change."

He paused, "The madam asked the young master if you would like to go to the capital for the Chinese New Year. If you are, I will prepare a carriage."

Hearing this, Yu Sheng shook his head, "Don't go."

Liu Yu glanced at him and hesitated, and soon he said in a low voice, "Young Master, let's celebrate the Chinese New Year with the Master and Madam. Since you disappeared, the Master and Madam have not celebrated the Chinese New Year."

"As soon as the New Year comes, the house is very deserted."

Yu Sheng was silent for a while, "I'll go back to the copper coin daughter-in-law to discuss it." After speaking, he left.

Seeing that he didn't mention mutton, Liu Zhi said, "No more?"

"Yes, it will be delivered to us later."

Yu Sheng handed her the birth control pill and said, "Take this in the future."

Then he said again: "They asked if we can go to the capital?"

Liu Zhi glanced at him and said with a smile: "Then go, the capital is prosperous, take your parents and the others to see them."

She took out a birth control pill and lowered her head to sniff it, not because she was afraid that Qin Yue and the others would harm them.

Suddenly, she frowned. This birth control pill had the smell of saffron. She was familiar with it because her father used to drink it in water.

The doctor said that saffron has the effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis and soothing the nerves.

She also drinks a little sometimes.

Yu Sheng sensed something was wrong with her, "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

Liu Zhi put the pills in the box, "I'll tell you later, Uncle, how many pancakes do you want?"

The uncle smiled and said, "Two."

Yu Sheng stared at the box, his heart sank, there must be something wrong, he was careless and gave it to Liu Zhi without checking.

Because of this, he was distracted, the pancake got hot when he was baking it, and the pancake in his hand fell to the ground.

Liu Zhi ran over and said, "Go to the backyard and wash it with water." Then she dragged him to the backyard.

Flushing him with water, seeing his absent-minded appearance, she whispered, "I'm fine, don't think about it, it has nothing to do with you."

She then said: "The birth control pill has the smell of saffron, and it was definitely not put by your parents."

They couldn't be that stupid and wouldn't do it.

Probably the person who did it moved his hands and feet.

Hearing this, Yu Sheng's expression changed, and he quickly clenched his hands, "It's all my fault, I'll give it to you without looking at it."

"You don't even know when you see it."

Liu Zhi patted him soothingly, and added, "Someone thought that your mother was pregnant and moved her hands and feet in the birth control pill."

Hearing this, Yu Sheng nodded and took her hand, "I will take care of your food in the future."

"I'll go to the county town to catch the abortion pill tomorrow."

"it is good."

Seeing his guilt, Liu Zhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, patted him on the back, then kissed him, and said, "Don't be nervous, I'm fine."

Yu Sheng hugged her tightly, "It's all my fault, I'm too careless."

Xu Hua wanted to come in to see Yu Sheng's hand, but when she saw the couple hugging each other, she quickly turned around and went out. She stopped Yu He, "Don't go."

"How's it going?" Yu He looked back.

Xu Hua pulled him away, "It should be fine, don't look at it, cough, the couple are making out."

Hearing this, Yu He let out a "cough", "I'm going to make noodles."

After closing the shop in the afternoon, Yu Sheng went to Liuyu's place, and Liuyu's yard was opposite them.

main room
Yu Sheng put the box on the table and said bluntly: "There is something wrong with this birth control pill, there is saffron in it."

Hearing this, Liu Yu's complexion changed, he opened the box and sniffed, and when he smelled the smell of saffron, his heart sank.

Immediately, he threw himself on the ground and knelt on the ground, "Please punish your son."

"It has nothing to do with you, I want you to go to the capital in person and send this medicine back."

Both Yu Sheng and Liu Zhi thought that it was impossible for Qin Lan's to fail to check the medicine, and there might be a problem with the doctor in the house.

If there is something wrong with the doctor, then Qin Lan's body is likely to be manipulated by others.

Liu Yu knew that this matter was not trivial, and immediately responded: "I'll rush back to the capital soon, Young Master, please be careful during this time." After that, he took the box and went out.

Yu's
Liu Zhi, who was cutting mutton in the kitchen, heard the sound of footsteps and looked up. Seeing Yu Sheng coming in, she whispered, "Are you gone?"

"gone."

Yu Sheng washed his hands and wanted to come over to get the knife, but Liu Zhi staggered, "You have blisters on your hands and it hurts to hold the knife, just tell me how to do it."

She added: "You love me, and I love you too, so don't say anything else, just stand by the side."

Yu Sheng didn't say anything, stood beside her, and talked about the frontier: "Another New Year's Day, seven or eight of us ate mutton soup pots, and at the end of the day, there was no mutton in the shop."

"The shopkeeper came out and told us to eat at another restaurant. At that time, someone was not convinced, thinking that he opened a mutton shop and didn't have mutton."

"I just patted the table and shouted if I looked down on us and couldn't afford the money!"

"With a snap, he slapped the purse on the table. The owner was about to cry when he saw this battle."

"He said no, it's true that there is no more mutton. I pulled five heads of mutton today, and you all ate three."

Liu Zhi laughed and asked curiously, "How did you manage to eat three heads of mutton for seven or eight people?"

"We didn't eat for a day, so we were busy finishing the end, so we ate more." Yu Sheng couldn't help laughing.

Liu Zhi talked about her Chinese New Year festival, "When my parents were still there, they would eat wofutou every time during the Chinese New Year. My father said that he didn't pay attention to these things."

"I found out later that they just wanted to go out and watch the fireworks earlier."

"My father looks like a big man in everything, but he is gentle in front of my mother."

Having said that, Yu Sheng thought of something and pursed his lips, "Daughter-in-law, take me to burn incense for my parents when you have time."

She secretly moved the tombs of her parents, and only she and the military advisor knew where it was. She just didn't want others to disturb their quiet days.

She nodded and said, "Okay, when the child is born, I will take you to burn incense."

……

After the mutton soup pot was ready, Liu Zhi packed some for Li Gui and the others, and took a look at Li Jinshi and the children.

The child is sleeping at this time, and the fleshy little face looks a bit like Li Jinshi.

Liu Zhi pointed at the door to Li Jinshi, signaling her to leave, and Li Jinshi nodded.

Back at home, Yu Sheng had brought the stove to the yard.

The pot is placed on the stove.

The four of them did each other, Liu Zhi sandwiched mutton for Xu Hua and Yu He, and then sandwiched it for Yu Sheng, "Is it convenient for you?"

"It's okay." Yu Sheng motioned for her to eat by herself.

Today, the stars are shining, Xu Lai said while eating: "Tomorrow will be good weather again, by the way, Sheng'er, are you going to the county town tomorrow?"

Yu Sheng nodded, "Go buy two people and come back to help."

"Alright, if you relax, you can take good care of Zhi'er." Xu Hua gave Liu Zhi a piece of mutton.

……

The next day, Yu Sheng and Liu Zhi went to the county seat in a carriage early in the morning, worried that Liu Zhi would vomit, so Yu Sheng slowed down a bit.

It was almost noon when they arrived at the county seat. After the two put the carriage in the stable, they went to eat noodles, and then went to find Ren Yazi.

Ren Yazi probably looked at people's faces, and glanced at the two of them. The clothes were neither good nor bad, and the tone was not so eager, "I have a dozen people in my hands, do you want a man or a woman?"

Yu Sheng said in a low voice, "You want one of each, and women want to have had children."

Hearing this, Ren Yazi took them to look inside, and a group of people were locked in a room.

Seeing human teeth, I was a little scared instinctively.

Ren Yazi said fiercely: "All stand up for me."

Among the dozen or so people, there was a four- or five-year-old child.

Ren Yazi pointed at the woman next to the child, "Come here!"

The woman immediately knelt on the ground and cried, "I want to go with the child."

"I beg you."

Ren Yazi walked over and gave her a few slaps, "You have the final say? The old lady hasn't even said a word. If you say anything else, I'll kill him."

The woman burst into tears and pulled her clothes, "Please."

Ren Yazi still wanted to hit her, Liu Zhi said, "How much money does she and that child have in total?"

"Five taels of silver, four taels for women, and one tael for children."

Ren Yazi doesn't want this child either. Four or five year olds can't do anything except eat.

When the woman heard Liu Zhi's voice, she crawled over to kowtow to her, "Please, Madam, buy my son together, and I will work honestly in the future."

"I beg you."

Liu Zhi looked at Yu Sheng, Yu Sheng nodded, "We all want another man."

Ren Yazi didn't expect that they would buy it, so she was stunned for a moment, but she didn't care if they wanted to take advantage of them, "There are only a few men, you choose."

Yu Sheng swept over a few men, and finally picked the honest man next to him, "Just him."

Ren Yazi looked at him and said, "Your eyes are very good. He is the most agile in our work here, and he is also very strong. Six taels of silver."
