My domineering ex-husband is living off his wife in ancient times.

Chapter 74 The Mad Donkey Kicks Down

While the cart was being unloaded, Zhao quickly called Si Shaoheng over: "Sanlang, you and your second brother go to the village and ask the clan chief to arrange where our whole family will stay tonight."

On the way, Dr. Hu continued to treat Zhao's body, and now she has recovered from all her illnesses and even speaks with more energy than before.

Cheng Ruoan took Si Nian from Si Shaoheng's hands, "Your mother is calling you, you should go quickly."

Si Shaoheng was a little worried. Looking at the little girl in Cheng Ruoan's arms, he said, "Niannian is still a little feverish. She cries when she's separated from her. You're busy here, so let me take her with me."

"It's okay, I'll have my mom hold me in a bit."

It's normal for children to get fevers. My master examined her, and I secretly gave her some Tylenol. She calmed down and felt better.

Motrin Ibuprofen Suspension is a must-have for modern mothers, a popular children's fever reducer for home and travel.

"Okay." Seeing that no one was paying attention to them, Si Shaoheng leaned down and rubbed his face against Xiao Si Nian's. "Good girl, Daddy will be back soon."

"You're numb, just go already!" Cheng Ruoan almost wanted to kick him.

Si Shaoheng coughed twice, then dragged Si Erlang away with a stern face.

Cheng Ruoan was both amused and exasperated. After two months of traveling, Si Shaoheng, who was originally indifferent to the children and kept saying, "I can only guarantee that I am responsible for them, you can't expect me to have fatherly love for them," had unknowingly been developed into a "doting father" by Si Nian.

During her break yesterday, Si Nian was led around by her brothers for a while, and she secretly pulled out the handkerchief that was meant to protect her back and put it in her purse.

It wasn't until dinner that everyone realized the child had caught a chill and had a fever.

Fortunately, we are already a long way from the epidemic area; otherwise, when Si Nian went to the Songshan County government office this morning to get his travel permit, he would have been arrested and quarantined by the soldiers.

Cheng Ruoan held the baby and lifted her up, then pecked her rosy cheeks and said gently, "Sleeping like a little pig."

The next moment, the little girl's soft, sweet voice rang out: "It's not a little pig, it's Niannian... Mommy~ Where's Daddy..."

Si Shaoheng had been holding her all day yesterday and this morning. Suddenly, someone else was holding her, and she wasn't used to it. So Si Nian, who was sleeping soundly, woke up.

"Daddy went to find us a house to live in. You go to sleep quietly, you'll feel better when you wake up."

"Okay, then let Grandma hold me, Mom. Mom is busy too..." In Xiao Si Nian's mind, her mother is like a female general, leading the whole family into battle, and is very busy every day.

Cheng Ruoan felt a warmth in her heart that her daughter was very sensible.

But when she turned her head, she saw Zhao busy arranging everyone's work, so Cheng Ruoan finally got a break. "It's okay, Mommy will hold you. Be a good girl, Nian Nian."

"Big Tiger, Big Tiger! Stop chatting with Chief Escort Qi and hurry up and help move all these things down the embankment."

"Li, if you're so bored, go and comb Ershuan and Erzhu's hair and check for lice! Don't let them go to their new home with nothing but a body full of lice!"

"Lin! Put Si Niu and Daya on the ground and let them stand by themselves! They're two years old already, can't they stand up yet?! Come help me lift this bundle of bedding! You silly girl!"

Watching Zhao Shi shout and yell while efficiently directing things, even ordering little Si Xin to collect the cushions from the carriage, Cheng Ruoan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Fortunately, her master had already settled in an inn in Songshan County and wasn't here.

Otherwise, they'd probably get angry again, saying that Zhao doesn't listen to the doctor's advice, is always impatient, and is prone to stroke.

Cheng Ruoan smiled and shook her head, then carried Si Nian and strolled around slowly, watching everyone busy unloading the truck and admiring the scenery at the entrance of Sijia Village.

Her leg has healed long ago.

Escorted by bodyguards, they arrived in Taiyuan Prefecture one day and checked into an inn. Cheng Ruoan and Si Shaoheng booked a room separately.

That night, under Si Shaoheng's cover, Cheng Ruoan entered the space and slowed down the flow of time to heal her leg injury.

Unexpectedly, after a night, when Cheng Ruoan came out again, her leg injury had really healed by about 70-80%.

Cheng Ruoan felt at the time that although the space didn't have the "spiritual spring" that other transmigrated female protagonists had, it was almost there.

She swayed along, holding the child, until she reached the path blocked by a rope, where someone was driving a donkey cart out.

Unfortunately, just as the donkey was about to reach Cheng Ruoan, it seemed to have stepped on something and suddenly bucked.

"Ah—Oh—Ah—Oh—"

"Whoa! Whoa!!!"

No matter how much the people on the donkey cart pulled the rope or whipped the donkey's rump, the donkey wouldn't cooperate and became completely unruly, running around wildly.

In the blink of an eye, the donkey charged towards Cheng Ruoan. Without thinking, Cheng Ruoan stepped forward and took a half-step back, as if she were airborne.

But the donkey still rushed up to her, and Cheng Ruoan was so frightened that she flipped over to avoid it.

"what!"

The people on the donkey cart were suddenly thrown off. Afraid of being hit by the person, Cheng Ruoan quickly moved two steps to the side.

Without anyone pulling the rope, the donkey dragged the cart and galloped forward like a madman.

The Si family was still unloading the cart by the roadside. If the donkey startled the horse, it would be a disaster!

Cheng Ruoan didn't even have time to look at the person lying on the ground groaning. She quickly chased after him, shouting as she ran, "The donkey has buckled! Get out of the way!"

Almost immediately, Qi the镖头 and his men mounted the nearest horse and rode a few steps, horse and carriage, to the other side of the official road.

Fortunately, there was no one in the carriage, otherwise we would have been jostled around and bumped around inside.

The tiger, riding on horseback, saw a familiar figure ahead of the donkey's running path and was immediately terrified, his face turning pale.

"big cow!"

Qi the镖头 also saw it and shouted, "Da Niu, get out of the way!" Qi the镖头 had just been talking to Da Hu, so the moment he mounted his horse, he instinctively grabbed Da Hu and pulled him onto the horse as well.

Da Niu had just carried his things down the embankment and was sitting by the roadside catching his breath.

Who would have thought that a donkey would charge at us?

He was terrified and before he could even stand up, he was knocked away by the charging donkey.

"what--"

After letting out a scream, it fell onto the nearby embankment.

"Da Niu!" Si Silang, who was still below the earthen embankment, rushed over to see the child.

The donkey was still braying and running, but Shaoyang couldn't care less. He flew up from the embankment, grabbed a rope, lassoed the donkey's neck, and then tied the rope to a large locust tree by the roadside.

The donkey ran forward for more than ten steps until the rope was tightened, at which point it was pulled backward and fell to the ground, panting heavily and braying.

This sudden turn of events, though it took a long time to explain, happened in just a few breaths, leaving the three women, Zhao, Li, and Lin, completely terrified.

Cheng Ruotong was slightly better; when she heard Cheng Ruoan call out, she still knew to protect Si Niu and Daya.

"Da Niu! Third Sister-in-law! Doctor Hu, Doctor! Da Niu is in trouble!"

Hearing Si Silang's shouts, Zhao Shi came to her senses, "Da Niu... Da Niu..."

Zhao felt a rush of blood to her head, her vision went black, and she collapsed.
