The Hunter's Lucky Little Lady

43 Wedding Meridian

Chapter 43: Joyous Pulse

“As for your wife, she should nourish her body. After all, she already has a new life in her stomach! As the pillar of the family, you’re especially important at this time. Therefore, eating a bowl of minced meat noodles to replenish your strength can also help you take good care of your wife and daughter!” Li Xiaoran explained her reason.

“What?” Lu Hua was a little shocked and looked at Li Xiaoran.

His wife had hurt her body when she gave birth to Jiaojiao. The doctor said that it wouldn’t be easy for her to get pregnant in the future.

At this moment, a country girl said that his wife was pregnant. How could Lu Hua not be shocked?

“If you don’t believe me, you can go to White Foothill City to ask a doctor to take your wife’s pulse after eating the noodles. You’ll know!” Li Xiaoran reminded again.

To be honest, if it were any other time, Li Xiaoran wouldn’t have said that.

However, she could sense the emotions of the child in the woman’s stomach and saw that the woman wasn’t in a good mental state, so she took the liberty to remind her.

After all, this child was also a life. She had to be careful!

Uli also heard Li Xiaoran’s words and looked over in surprise, but her hand subconsciously touched her abdomen.

Old Madam Lu’s carriage happened to be opposite the noodle stall, so she naturally heard Li Xiaoran’s words.

“Mrs. Xu, help me down! Let’s go take a look and see if she is really pregnant!”

Mrs. Xu nodded, then carefully helped Old Madam Lu out of the carriage and walked towards the noodle stall.

When Lu Hua saw his mother get out of the car, he hurried over to her.

“Son! Listen to that girl, but order five bowls of minced meat and sliced noodles!”

When Lu Hua heard his mother speak, he nodded.

“Alright, cook us five bowls of minced meat and sliced noodles!”

Seeing that the other party had agreed, Li Xiaoran nodded and began to peel the noodles.

After Mrs. Xu helped Old Madam Lu sit down, she came to Uli’s side.

“Let me take your pulse!”

Uli knew that Mrs. Xu knew medicine, so she nodded and held out her hand.

Jiaojiao seemed to understand something. She looked curiously at her mother and then at Mrs. Xu.

After a while, Mrs. Xu asked Uli to take her pulse with another hand.

After checking the pulse of both hands, Mrs. Xu’s face lit up.

“Congratulations, Old Madam. Congratulations, Third Master. Third Young Madam is really lucky. It’s been more than a month since she got pregnant!”

Old Madam Lu knew it the moment she saw Mrs. Xu’s expression. When she heard this good news, a smile immediately appeared on her face.

Lu Hua was also very excited at this moment. After all, he had two daughters and no son. The child had come just in time.

“This child is really lucky to have survived all the twists and turns along the way. Speaking of which, I have to thank the stall owner!” Old Madam Lu said happily.

Uli was also shocked by this good news. When she came back to her senses and heard her mother-in-law’s words, she smiled gratefully.

“That’s right! I think the owner of this noodle stall is a blessed person. Jiaojiao had a stomachache all the way and didn’t have an appetite, but when she arrived here, she wanted to eat noodles. She didn’t even complain about a stomachache after she drank a bowl of bone soup!”

Lu Hua was also very grateful to Li Xiaoran. If not for her reminder, they would have neglected this little life.

Soon, five bowls of sliced noodles were ready.

The five bowls of noodles were all clear broth, with no chili.

Those who traveled for a long time were physically exhausted. It wasn’t a good time to eat chili, so a light diet was best.

Moreover, this group of people were all old and weak, so it was better to eat light food.

After the good news, they were in high spirits.

After five bowls of sliced noodles were served, the five of them ate together.

Even Jiaojiao had eaten most of her bowl of sliced noodles. After she finished eating, she looked more energetic.

The others were also focused on eating their noodles and immersed in enjoying the tasty food.

The sorghum buns at Yuan Cheng’s stall were also steamed. Many people ran over to buy some.

As there were a lot of people in this convoy, they were snatched up as soon as they were done steaming. After that, two more steamers of steamed buns were also sold out.

The other stalls more or less had some business, but the ones with the best business were Li Xiaoran’s noodle stall and Yuan Cheng’s stall.

While Lu Hua’s family was enjoying their meal, Wan Yuan and Gu Yan brought their buddies to the noodle stall.

At the same time, the others from the Lu family also came down and sat to eat noodles.

Later, when there weren’t enough seats, Wan Yuan and Gu Yan simply gave up their tables and chairs. They squatted in the field to one side and ate.

After Old Madam Lu finished eating, she looked at the bowl of soup and was immediately surprised.

“I actually finished this bowl of sliced noodles!”

Mrs. Xu saw Old Madam Lu’s bowl and laughed.

“Yes! It’s rare to see the old lady have such a good appetite!”

Uli also looked at her empty bowl. She actually felt like she wanted more.

Lu Hua didn’t feel full yet.

Hence, Lu Hua ordered two more bowls of sliced noodles and even ate Jiaojiao’s unfinished noodles.

Li Xiaoran noticed Lu Ran’s actions and smirked slightly.

...

Perhaps all fathers in the world were like this. They didn’t despise their children’s leftovers.

Luo Cheng also noticed that Li Xiaoran was very concerned about Lu Hua’s family. For some reason, his heart ached.

He was just a man, and a man with a family. Why was she staring at him so much?!

Thinking of this, Luo Cheng quickly got up to make his presence known.

“What can I do for you?”

When Li Xiaoran heard Luo Cheng’s words, she looked at him and gave him a big smile.

“The fire in the kitchen is low. Help me add some firewood!”

For some reason, when he saw Li Xiaoran smiling so happily at him, his previous jealousy disappeared.

“Okay!” Luo Cheng replied and sat down to add firewood.

After Jiaojiao finished eating, she ran to Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng out of boredom.

Looking at the busy Li Xiaoran, Jiaojiao leaned against Luo Cheng again.

...

This was the first time Luo Cheng was so close to such a young child. His entire body stiffened and he didn’t dare to move.

“Brother, it’s so warm here. Can I warm myself by the fire?” Jiaojiao glanced at Luo Cheng and asked obediently.

“Yes,” said Luo Cheng, and left it at that.

So Jiaojiao obediently leaned back and stretched out her little hand to warm herself in front of the stove.
