“Second Sister! Did you hear that? In such a deep place, he must have already…”

Liu Sisi grabbed Liu Zhi’er’s hand in an attempt to give her the courage to face the situation.

Liu Zhi’er cried and laughed, “That’s right! He’s dead; he’s already dead! Dead!”

This scene left Di Yelei and Liu Sisi speechless, and they could only silently accompany her to comfort her.

In the following days, Liu Zhi’er’s spirit noticeably declined, and she became more and more silent.

Liu Sisi’s morning sickness symptoms became more severe, but her spirit seemed to have improved significantly.

On the 21st day of Lunar December, the jujube red horse finally carried a drunken Di Yelei home, long after the sky had turned dark.

The man was so drunk that no amount of shouting could wake him up. Liu Sisi couldn’t move him on her own, so she called Liu Zhi’er and Xuan’er to help. The three of them supported him, practically half dragging and half carrying the unconscious man into the kitchen.

Liu Zhi’er’s face turned completely red. Although she was only helping him like this, his strong body, even with layers of clothing, still made her feel heat and warmth through their close contact. This heat transmitted to her brain, making her feel feverish and hot all over, as if she were someone else entirely.

Barely managing to drag him to the temporary bed next to the kitchen, they put him on the head of the bed. Liu Zhi’er hurriedly let go of him like she was holding a hot potato.

But immediately, a feeling of loss arose in her heart, causing her to feel a sudden panic.

Everyone was exhausted and sat down gasping for breath.

“He doesn’t look that heavy! Why is he so heavy? Ouch! I’m exhausted.”

Liu Sisi nearly collapsed at the head of the bed.

“Right! Dad is so heavy, my arms are sore.” Di Xuan also shook his arms.

Liu Sisi felt that using so much strength caused an unbearable pain in her lower abdomen: “The exhaustion is bearable, but my stomach… sucks! … it hurts so much…”

“What’s the matter? Did you just use too much force and… cause a miscarriage? What are we going to do?”

Liu Zhi’er, who had barely come back to her senses from her daze, panicked upon hearing this: “You should lie down, lie flat and rest, see if it gets any better. Don’t move around anymore.”

“It should be fine… it’s… much better now.”

Liu Sisi held onto her lower abdomen, waiting for the wave of pain to pass, her forehead already covered in cold sweat.

However, she did not hold a grudge against the baby in her stomach and quickly lay down to rest as advised.

“No! I’m going to visit Brother Zhang’s house and ask Brother Zhang to come and check your pulse. If it’s really… that wouldn’t be good.” As Liu Zhi’er spoke, she rushed out of the room.

“Second Sister, don’t…”

Before Liu Sisi could stop her, Liu Zhi’er had already run far away.

Elderly Mr. Di stood outside the grass curtain, worried but hesitating to enter at the risk of damaging his daughter-in-law’s reputation. He could only stand outside in distress.

“Third Child’s daughter-in-law, don’t get agitated… take a deep breath…”

The more anxious Elderly Di became, the more unresponsive his tongue grew.

“Mom, are you alright? Is your stomach very painful?”

Di Xuan also looked anxious. Although he was not happy about the arrival of the child in his mother’s womb, when he heard that the fetus was indeed in danger, he became nervous! He hoped that this little brother or sister could grow up well and peacefully.

“Mom, listen to Second Aunt, take deep breaths!”

Liu Sisi tried to smile and ease her tense mood.

Child, you must be good, alright? You know?

She gently caressed her belly.

Liu Zhi’er did not bring Zhang Peng, but brought Guihua instead.

As soon as Guihua entered, she observed Liu Sisi’s condition, opened a pack of medicine and handed it to Liu Zhi’er to decoct it.

“Your Brother Zhang is also drunk like Brother Ye Lei, but he is better than Ye Lei. He managed to ride his horse back home by himself, cleaned up and then went to bed. Just now, Second Sister came over but couldn’t wake him up no matter how much she called. Look at you, why did you have to help him? He should have just slept on the ground. If something really happened to the child, what would you do?”

Although Guihua was quick to scold, her hands were very gentle as she carefully massaged several acupoints on Liu Sisi’s body.

“Sister Guihua, it’s my fault for making you worry.” Liu Sisi said earnestly.

She always troubled Guihua to run around for her, making her feel sorry.

“What are you talking about, worrying or not worrying? We’re like family. These acupoints helped me when I was pregnant with Zhang Yun and accidentally fell and saw blood. Your Brother Zhang gave me acupuncture and massaged these points every day. It’s a pity I don’t know how to do acupuncture, so I can only help you massage for a while.” Guihua said somewhat shyly.

“No, Sister Guihua, your massage is very effective. The pain in my stomach has lessened a lot.” Liu Sisi hurriedly said.

And indeed, it had improved a lot.

Only then did Guihua breathe a sigh of relief: “This is your first pregnancy, and it’s within the first three months, so of course you need to be careful. When the baby is four months old and more stable, it will naturally get better.”

After Liu Zhi’er cooked the soup medicine and Liu Sisi drank it, her stomach finally settled down completely and she fell into a deep sleep under the effect of the medicine.

Seeing Liu Sisi’s condition, the baby should be fine, so Guihua finally let out a sigh of relief before going home.

At midnight, Di Yelei began to vomit, and the stench of post-drunken vomit filled the room. The drunk and the drugged sleeper naturally had no idea, but it was a real hardship for Liu Zhi’er.

She quickly cleaned up the vomit on the ground, and upon seeing Di Yelei’s dirty clothes, she couldn’t bear to see him lying there filthy, so she reached out to unfasten his outer robe…

Her hands trembled uncontrollably, barely able to grasp his waistband. After some effort, she found the opening to try to unbuckle his waistband.

Just as her hand touched the waistband, it was immediately grabbed by a pair of strong hands!

Even in his drunkenness, Di Yelei still maintained a basic level of alertness.

As Liu Zhi’er’s hand touched his waistband, he quickly reached out and grabbed her hand, almost causing her to scream out loud. Fortunately, she stopped herself in time.

Groggily, Di Yelei opened his hazy, drunken eyes, trying to see who he had grabbed.

In his drunken state, he mistook Liu Zhi’er for Liu Sisi.

He couldn’t help but laugh, and pulled her into his arms: “Sisi, I’m so happy and excited today. My colleagues asked me to treat them. I’m happy, happy…”

And with that, he fell back into his drunken slumber.
