Chapter 342 Was he dying?
Zhu Qian walked toward Fang Chi and handed him a red packet that he took out from his sleeve. "It's not much but it's our goodwill please don't reject it."
Of course, Fang Chi couldn't reject it now that Zhu Qian has said it like this, so he took the red envelope and thanked Zhu Qian for his wishes. Behind him was Lang Ru who has trailed after her daddy, since she was still young, she could, of course, come to the section where women were not permitted, she walked up to Shen Li and tugged on his robe. " Brother Li, can you put Mai down, I want to play with him."
Shen Li smiled as he obliged Lang Ru's request, he carefully put Yu Mai down who tottered towards his friend. " I am going to be an uncle," he said smiling like a little goof. " I asked my brother in law, once the baby comes we can even play with it."
Lang Ru wanted to tell him that he would be the only one who would be able to play with the baby since she would have to leave for the academy. But then she didn't say anything, if she told Yu Mai that she was leaving, he will only get more upset with her so, she just nodded and said, " yeah."
Yu Mai was already very happy and thus he didn't notice that Lang Ru was only saying it casually and didn't look serious at all, he thought about something then clasped Lang Ru's wrist and ran out of the room. Lang Ru was used to his antics, so she didn't struggle and let him drag her around with him, once the two kids reached the first floor, Yu Mai looked around and when his gaze fell on the person that he was looking for, he immediately walked towards her.
Lang was no longer the same as she was a couple of months ago, she was used to drinking the spiritual water from the well of the Yu family and then there was also the fact that she has been training with Yu Dong for a long time thus when Yu Mai was walking towards her, she has already sensed that he was coming in her direction. Smiling, she crouched down. " How can I help you little Mai?"
Yu Mai took out a bunch of coins from his pocket and handed them to Lang. After watching the children of the village, he has learned a new word that was 'pocket money' and demanded that Yu Dong hand him pocket money too, what he didn't know was that the village kids only got a coin or so as to pocket money if they were lucky most of the time it was a meat bun or something of the sort unlike them, Yu Mai actually got a lot of copper coins as his pocket money, because Yu Dong too unlike the rest of the parents in the village, didn't understand that ——pocket money here had a different meaning than it had in the modern world.
"I want to buy candies for everyone, I am going to be an uncle! It's my responsibility to buy something sweet for everyone to eat," said Yu Mai with a proud look on his face, Lang saw him like this and smiled—— the bunch of copper coins was no way enough to buy so many sweets but she didn't say anything and simply agreed. " Alright."
The Yu family has done so much for her, the least she could do was to buy a bunch of sweets for them to scatter around. Lang did as Yu Mai ordered and brought a bunch of sweets before handing them to the little boy who went around distributing them in the bar, at the same time asking for the blessing of the customers.
" I am going to be uncle, don't forget to pray for my uncle!"
" Here take this sweet and pray for my brother in law to give birth to a sweet and chubby baby."
The customers all heard his chatter and couldn't help but chuckle—— ah, so this was why the owner of this bar rushed to the back room, she was actually a husband doting maniac huh?
After finding out the reason for Yu Dong's weird actions the customers all laughed as they took the candies and promised Yu Mai that they will pray for his brother in law.
Because Fang Chi wasn't feeling good, the bar was closed after the candies were given out. Even Song Yixu and Qiao Sha left silently, they knew that this was the time that Yu Dong would like to spend with her family, so they only congratulated her before leaving promising that they will come to meet her soon.
Yu Dong thanked them before closing the shop, leaving Xiao Bai in charge of taking care of everything that he agreed to with a very bad expression causing her to frown—— why was he looking at her like she owed him a thousand taels? However, she didn't pay much attention to him, after all, she was already having a hard time thinking about Shen Li and Ye Liu who looked a bit less energetic because of their overthinking and there was also Fang Chi who wasn't looking good even after eating the bowl of spiritual porridge, it was just good enough to make him stop heaving.
" We will talk later," she said though she couldn't ask what was wrong with him, Yu Dong wasn't going to let the matter rest. She took one last look at Xiao Bai's expression that was full of anger towards her and she sighed, surely it was something that she did but was there anything that she did wrong to him?
From what she could remember she hadn't done anything wrong. With her brows scrunched up she hiked the whip up before striking the mule and driving the carriage away, Xiao Bai watched her go and bit his lips —— why was his heart hurting like this? Why was he so angry? He should be happy for Fang Chi, he was happy under all the anger he was happy —— so what was it that was eating him up like this?
Throwing the full moon fan in his hands down on the floor, he strode towards the shop and shouted at Xu Zimo. " Go and get me a doctor!" He clutched his chest and jumped on his bed —— why was it hurting so much? Was he dying? Because it was hurting that bad.
