The Rough Hunter's Little Lucky Wife

348 Zhang Family (Part 1)

“Now that I think about it, I don’t know if my father was telling the truth.” Zhao Zhan sat by the bed and held Yue Jiaojiao’s calf in his arms. As he massaged her, he said in a gentle voice, “I was with Zhang Lingshen for a few years before he gave me to my father.”

“Zhang Lingshen…”

Yue Jiaojiao still remembered the shock she felt when she first met him.

“I think he’s a little weird,” Yue Jiaojiao analyzed quietly. “It’s a little contradictory to what you told me, but it’s not necessarily true. After all, I’ve only met him once, so I can’t make any wild comments.”

!!

Her intuition had always been accurate.

However, Zhao Zhan’s state of mind was not stirred. The strength in his hand was still very steady. “No matter what the truth of the past is, I no longer care.”

The child in her arms suddenly cried out,

Yue Jiaojiao stopped talking.

The child had just turned one month old, and he already looked very different from when he was born.

“Jiaojiao,” Zhao Zhan went into the room and opened the window for ventilation. “”Before the midwife left, she said that if possible, it’s best to stay in confinement for forty-six days. If you don’t think it’s hard, we can make the confinement longer.”

“It won’t be a problem.” Yue Jiaojiao sat on the stool, her fingers slowly shaking the crib. “You and Madam Qin have been the ones working the hardest.”

Throughout the confinement period, the only thing she had to do was to feed the child. The rest of the matters were handled by Zhao Zhan. She was in good spirits and did not look tired at all. Compared to before she gave birth, she was in a better state.

Her temperament was gentle and beautiful, and her smile was gentle and moving.

Zhao Zhan was often dumbfounded.

Zhao Nian, who was lying in the baby cot, babbled. Yue Jiaojiao leaned over and stretched out a finger for him to hold in his palm. She smiled and said, “You’re so strong.”

“Hello?” Madam Qin’s voice sounded from outside the door. “There are a few carriages outside. The people who knocked on the door came to report that they are from the Zhang family.”

Yue Jiaojiao and Zhao Zhan looked at each other. “Is it the Zhang family that I’m thinking of?”

Zhao Zhan stood up and looked outside the door. He raised his voice and said, “Madam Qin, please come in and help Jiaojiao pick out some clothes. I’ll go out and see who’s coming.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Madam Qin entered the bedroom. “You can go ahead first. This family brought a lot of things. It looks like they’re here to stay for a long time.”

Zhao Zhan got up and informed Yue Jiaojiao first, then left the room and headed straight to the front courtyard.

“Zhao Zhan.” Zhang Lingzhen stood at the door, and when he saw Zhao Zhan open the door, he became excited. “I didn’t tell you clearly before my rash visit. I hope you don’t mind.”

Madam Zhang followed closely behind, alighting from the carriage and standing side by side with Zhang Lingzhen. “Zhao Zhan, this was my idea. After receiving your letter, I made the decision on my own to come. Jiaojiao is pregnant and it wouldn’t be suitable for her to travel far. After the child is born, it would be even more torturous to bring the child along. I thought about it and insisted on coming here instead.”

“Has Jiaojiao already given birth?”

“Yes, he’s one month old right now.” Zhao Zhan stepped aside to make way for the door. “Come in. Also, which carriage is grandmother in? I’ll bring her in.”

Zhang Lingzhen pointed at the carriage in the middle. “She’s in the middle carriage.”

Zhao Zhan hurried over. When he lifted the curtain and saw the old lady sitting in the middle, his rigid face softened a little. “Grandmother, you must be tired from the hard journey.”

The old lady was trembling. When she saw Zhao Zhan, she hurriedly reached out to hold his hand. “Where have you been these few days? Why haven’t you come to see me?”

“Zhao Zhan…” Zhang Lingzhen hesitated for a moment before finally speaking, “Your father has been locked up in the Zhang family for the past few days. On the way here, he ran away again.”

As Zhang Lingzhen spoke, he gritted his teeth in anger. “Forget it. Let’s not talk about that killjoy on such a good day. He will have nothing to do with this family in the future!”

“That’s enough.” Madam Zhang stepped forward to smooth things over. “Let’s not stand at the door and talk. Can’t you see that there are so many people surrounding us?”

With so many carriages entering the village, many people were already following behind the carriages, surrounding them and looking around curiously.

Zhao Zhan called for the servants to bring the bags from the carriage into the room, “Of course, I’ll take you to settle down first.”
