My domineering ex-husband is living off his wife in ancient times.

Chapter 121 Frightened Ill

"Look how scared you've made my daughter!" Cheng's mother supported Cheng Ruo'an, feeling her trembling, and felt extremely distressed.

Cheng Ruoan's face also turned visibly pale.

how come?

If there were other transmigrators in this Great Xia besides them... Cheng Ruoan's first thought was Lin Shishi!

Cheng Ruoan was so panicked that she almost couldn't stand up, and a strong feeling of suffocation swept over her whole body.

There weren't as many people on this street as on Ta Ma Street, but it was precisely because there were fewer people that the argument that broke out in front of the blacksmith's shop attracted everyone's attention.

Everyone gathered around to watch the spectacle.

After hearing Cheng's mother's scolding, they all felt that the blacksmith Wang was in the wrong.

Wang the blacksmith also realized that he was indeed somewhat unreasonable.

Business owners should never give a bad attitude to first-time customers.

But as he got anxious, his voice grew even louder, "I didn't yell! I just have a naturally loud voice!"

"You haven't even yelled yet? You're yelling at me too?! Does everyone who yells at others for no reason have the right to use a loud voice to absolve themselves of their rudeness?!"

Cheng's mother's good temper was only reserved for her daughter; she was originally known for her shrewishness in Baihua Village.

Otherwise, how could a widow preserve her skills, earn money, and raise her two daughters?

Once she put herself in that situation, realizing that she and Si Shaoheng weren't the only ones who had transmigrated during the car accident, Cheng Ruoan's panic reached its peak.

In Cheng Ruoan's eyes, Lin Shishi was the epitome of "born evil"!

If Lin Shishi really did transmigrate here, and knew that she and Si Shaoheng were also here, she would definitely try every means to kill them to silence them.

Whether Lin Shishi will kill Si Shaoheng is another matter, but she will definitely kill her!

Cheng Ruoan trembled violently, clutching her mother's arm tightly, and said in a trembling voice, "Mother... I don't feel well... Let's go back, let's go back quickly..."

When Cheng's mother saw Cheng Ruo'an like this, she was also frightened. "Alright, alright, Mother will take you back to rest."

After saying this, the two were about to leave, but they didn't say that they had made peace with Wang the blacksmith.

People around were whispering among themselves, wondering if the blacksmith Wang was bullying the mother and daughter because of his tall and strong physique.

Wang the Blacksmith: ...

A burly man with a thick beard, his face flushed with anxiety, grabbed his blacksmith's hammer and chased after them from the stall, shouting at the backs of Cheng Ruoan and her daughter.

"Oh dear, I really didn't swear! You...you guys come back!"

But the person soon disappeared, and Wang the blacksmith was left alone to endure the pointing fingers and whispers of those around him, on the verge of tears.

He slumped over, "I'm so fed up! How come every time I encounter something that requires special metal tools, I always end up suffering in silence?! Sigh..."

Cheng Ruoan returned to the Cheng residence and developed a fever that very night.

Doctor Hu took her pulse at the bedside and was speechless, sighing several times.

Cheng's mother and Cheng Ruotong were extremely anxious. "Dr. Hu, how is An'an? Please say something, don't just sigh!"

I'm not afraid of seeing a doctor, but I'm afraid of doctors sighing and groaning during the consultation.

"Well, if there's nothing wrong with Ruo'an that even I can't diagnose, she's fine, but..."

Dr. Hu's old face was contorted as he stroked his beard, only speaking halfway through his sentence.

If he weren't Cheng Ruoan's mentor, Cheng's mother would have slapped him on the back of the head.

"Don't just say it all at once!"

"But Ruo'an is already a mother of two, how could she still be so frightened that she had convulsions and fever like a young child?"

Cheng's mother: ...

She didn't understand either, "The blacksmith looked pretty scary, like a bear with a big beard."

Cheng Ruotong paced anxiously around the room, "Why did my little sister suddenly get sick? How did she get sick from being frightened by the blacksmith? It's all my fault. I should have gone to buy the iron plate myself, instead of letting my little sister buy it for me..."

Cheng's mother was dizzy from watching. "Alright, stop spinning around. If you have time to waste, you should go and watch over Xin'er and Niannian as they do their homework!"

Fearing that the two little ones would worry about Cheng Ruoan, they specially asked Doctor Hu to give them homework that would take until they went to bed to finish.

Dr. Hu added, "If you can't finish, you don't have to. You can take them to your yard to rest."

"Fine," Cheng Ruotong said sullenly as she left.

Cheng Ruoan was delirious with fever, her consciousness was hazy, so she naturally couldn't go to her space to get ibuprofen.

As it happened, Si Shaoheng spent the night in the back residence of the county government office. Because he gave Magistrate Fang two priceless glass cups, Magistrate Fang took him under his wing to tutor him in the knowledge required for the imperial examinations.

He didn't go into the space, so naturally he didn't discover the note Cheng Ruoan left inside.

[In case of emergency, return home immediately!]

Cheng Ruoan had a fever on and off for two days. If it weren't for Doctor Hu constantly watching over her and giving her acupuncture, she would have really gone crazy from the fever.

Cheng's mother and Cheng Ruotong took turns staying by her bedside, feeding her herbal medicine and monitoring her body temperature at all times.

He even used strong liquor to wipe her palms and soles.

This is something Dr. Hu learned from Si Dahua.

Previously, on the road, Da Niu had inhaled too much sleeping powder, which made her constitution extremely poor. She also had a high fever once. Dr. Hu did not recommend giving such a young child strong medicine. After Cheng Ruoan secretly gave her Tylenol, he took the alcohol from his space and gave it to Da Hua so that she could use physical methods to cool Da Niu down.

Even with the three of them taking such meticulous care of Cheng Ruoan, her convulsions did not improve.

Cheng Ruotong was frantic: "How could this happen? Mother, don't stop me! I'm going to see just how scary that blacksmith Wang looks that he could frighten my little sister like this!"

"Can you please stop making things worse? You'd be better off using this time to finish making the tofu I need to deliver to Qingfeng Temple this afternoon!" Mother Cheng said with a worried expression.

Just two days ago, Cheng Ruoan was worried that she might be maliciously retaliated against for taking over the Yang family's tofu business.

Before the Yang family could even come knocking, Cheng Ruoan inexplicably fell ill.

Cheng's mother sighed wearily, "Shaoyang should be back with the two children soon. Ruotong, take them directly to the mill and teach them how to make tofu. Don't bring them to Ruo'an's courtyard."

"I understand, Mother. But, it's not good to keep it from them forever..."

Cheng Ruotong sighed.

For the past two days, she and Shao Yang have been taking care of the two little ones, and they haven't let them come looking for Cheng Ruoan.

It was daytime, so Shaoyang took them hunting in the mountains. In the evening, Doctor Hu would give them their first lessons.

The two children were so tired that they didn't even remember to look for their parents.

Mother Cheng slammed the medicine bowl she was holding onto the side table by the bed, frowning and saying unhappily, "Da Kun went to the county town yesterday to deliver a message to Sanlang, why hasn't Sanlang returned yet today?"

Does he even have An'an in his heart?!

Cheng Ruotong shrank back in fright at the noise of her putting down the bowl, and trembled: "It wasn't so good before, but ever since the earthquake, Si Sanlang has really been very obedient to An'an and has her on his mind all the time..."

"The problem is that some people can share hardship, but not prosperity." Mother Cheng's eyes deepened as she made her decision. "When Shaoyang returns later, have him go to the county town and call Si Sanlang back!"

Just as Cheng Ruotong agreed, Xiao Cui'er came to report from outside the door: "Madam, Miss, Manager Luo from Youjian Inn has come again."
