“It’s been hard on you.” Zhao Zhan’s brows were tightly furrowed, and he wished he could feel the pain for her. “It’s all my fault for not coming back earlier.”
“There’s no need to see a doctor. After this blister pops, it will heal very quickly.”
Zhao Zhan didn’t dare to say anything.
He would usually kill his prey without even blinking, but when it came to the blisters on her hands, he didn’t know what to do.
Yue Jiaojiao’s palm was fair, and there was a blister that had burst from the wear and tear. The red at the edge of the blister looked particularly miserable.
Zhao Zhan’s fingers tightened and loosened around the needle. He tried several times to reach out but did not dare to touch it.
While he wasn’t paying attention, Yue Jiaojiao pinched a needle that had been heated over the fire and directly picked out the water bubble. She took a deep breath and a layer of moisture quickly accumulated in her eyes.
She had a sensitive and pain-prone body to begin with, just like the modern version of a princess. She didn’t expect that her body would become more and more weak here, and the physiological reaction on her face was completely out of control.
“Should we go back to town and find a doctor?” Zhao Zhan looked at her and carefully held her hand, not daring to move. “It won’t hurt anymore after the medicine is applied, right?”
His voice was soft at the end, and Yue Jiaojiao laughed awkwardly as she tried to ignore the pain in her palm. “It’ll only hurt for a while. Zhao Zhan, you should go and cook first. When we’re done here, we’ll go back to town. By then, this hand should have recovered.”
Seeing that Zhao Zhan was about to carry her, Yue Jiaojiao glared at him. “Stop being so stubborn.”
Zhao Zhan didn’t dare to move. He had to let go and continue what he had just finished.
He was absent-minded when he was cooking this meal. From time to time, he would observe Yue Jiaojiao to see if she showed any signs of pain. The food he made was not up to standard because he had been a little distracted.
However, the neighbors who had come to help couldn’t really tell. After all, even if Zhao Zhan’s cooking skills were slightly worse, the meat and vegetables were much better than what they usually ate.
When they were eating, Master Sun brought a bowl over. “Zhao Zhan, there’s a large open space beside your courtyard. Do you want to build it together? ”
When he had bought the foundation, Lizheng had received money, so the foundation he had approved for Zhao Zhan was more than double the amount he had asked for.
It was a pity that this piece of land was barren. Master Sun pondered for a few days before saying to Zhao Zhan, “I think that your tofu business will definitely grow bigger and bigger in the future. The land in your courtyard may not be enough to hold everything.”
“Besides, didn’t you say that your wife likes peace and quiet?”
Ever since he had returned to Wangshan Town, disheartened by Huai County, Master Sun had been somewhat perfunctory in building houses.
He had originally wanted to make a name for himself in Huai County and spread it all the way to the capital, but who knew that he had trusted the wrong person and ended up in such a state.
Although Zhao Zhan’s house was built in the remote Willow Village, he had asked for details. His wife had many strange but reasonable requests.
Because of this, Master Sun had gradually become more interested in this house, which he had originally intended to earn a little more money. He squatted by the side and guarded it without missing a moment.
He wanted to build a good house for her.
“Master Sun, how big is the empty land next to it? ” Seeing that Zhao Zhan didn’t say anything, Yue Jiaojiao asked in a low voice,”We’re building Li Miao’s house next to ours. If we build another house, will it affect them?”
“No, I’ve already seen the area. It wouldn’t be a problem.”
