Xiao Cao coughed lightly and said with a smile: "It's my fault. Can I apologize to Mu Yao?"
Xiao Cao lowered his attitude. Zhen Muyao was too embarrassed to take advantage of Qiao. He waved his hand and said, "Forget it. You are really busy. I forgive you."
Xiaocao laughed and her eyes fell on Jianshu who was holding the child next to her. Calculating the time, the child seemed to be seven or eight months old.
"Greetings, Princess Anguo." Compared to Zhen Muyao, Jianshu has "many rules."
"No need to be so polite. Come here, baby, and give your aunt a hug."
This little cutie had been staring at Xiaocao from the very beginning. Now that Xiaocao wanted to hug him, he was not shy at all and came over with fluttering his little paws. As soon as Xiaocao had held him firmly in his arms, he gave him a kiss and looked very excited.
Children have always liked grass, and the one they are holding now seems to be even more so.
After making a fuss for a while, Zhen Muyao brought the child back and threw him to Jian Shu, asking him to go and look after the child. It was obvious that Xiaocao came to the Imperial Hospital for something, not to play with the child, so he should not delay the important business.
Xiao Cao originally thought that Zhen Muyao just wanted to chat with her, but as time went by, she found that it didn't seem to be the case, "... So, Muyao, you actually want to find something to do?"
"Yes, but I don't really want to study medicine, so I don't know if there is anything else for me to do." If it were in the past, Zhen Muyao would have just sat there doing nothing. The Jian family didn't need her to do anything, and she herself was wealthy enough, so she could have been a lazy person for the rest of her life. But seeing Xiaocao busying around doing things that benefited the country and the people, she couldn't sit still.
"Who says there is only one path, which is to study medicine? If you really want to help, there are many things to do." Xiaocao then told Zhen Muyao about his "hospital construction" plan.
Zhen Muyao was immediately excited, "Sister Xuan, do you have enough money? If not, I have it."
"I'm not very familiar with this area, so I don't know the exact amount needed. It requires calculations from all aspects. This is just a plan, and I don't know where the specific regulations are." Xiaocao was confident that she would not be able to do it by herself.
"That's okay. I can help you with that. Sister Xuan, you are now Princess Anguo. What you did originally has the support of the emperor, so you don't need to worry too much. Even if you want to pay for it yourself, you can borrow people from the emperor. You just need to tell us which piece of land you prefer to build a hospital, and you don't need to do anything afterwards."
Xiaocao was still a little lacking in self-awareness in using the power behind him as a matter of course. However, he had previously thought that if he built the first hospital himself, perhaps the imperial court would not be involved. Others took it for granted, so there seemed no need to be so clean. At this moment, he had made up his mind and insisted on paying for it himself. "I'll go find my father after I've determined the location."
Zhen Muyao nodded. "Your hospital is not like an ordinary clinic. There should be a lot of things to do. I will be your accountant. I should be able to handle this."
"Okay."
Zhen Muyao was naturally delighted to get Xiaocao's affirmative answer, and she happily followed Xiaocao. Even when Xiaocao was discussing with others or giving medical advice, she did not leave, completely forgetting about her husband and son.
However, if you look carefully, you will find that Jianshu has no opinion on this, and he is very good at taking care of the children. You can tell at a glance that he must do these things a lot on a daily basis. He looks like a "good husband and father."
When Xiaocao noticed this, he also teased Zhen Muyao.
Zhen Muyao shrugged nonchalantly, "He has memorized the parenting manual at home by heart. It can be said that he knows it better than any of us. Doesn't your book say that parents should spend more time with their children? He implements this point to the end. Look, he has quite a few people serving him. He basically doesn't use other people's help."
"That's good too." Xiaocao said with a smile.
"Okay, from now on I will be responsible for making money to support the family." Zhen Muyao said with a smile.
"It's all right." No one stipulates that men must stay at home and women must stay outside.
At noon, Wei Tingyu came over, still sitting in the wheelchair, but his clothes were quite different. It was the official uniform of the commander of Kaiping Guard. On Wei Tingyu, it seemed to have a different feeling than usual.
At the palace banquet, Zhen Muyao naturally met Wei Tingyu. She had basically never met him before, but she knew more about him than others. In comparison, she naturally hoped that Xiaocao could be happy.
So after Xiaocao finished talking to Wei Tingyu, Zhen Muyao teased back, "Sister Xuan and Prince Wei, when do you plan to get married? You are already grown up." She spoke in the tone of an old mother.
Wei Tingyu looked up at Xiao Cao with a gentle smile on his face, "It depends on what your sister Xuan thinks."
Xiao Cao remained calm, "It's too early, let's talk later."
There was a sudden hint of resentment in Wei Tingyu's eyes. Such a handsome man with such a refined and elegant look could make people be infatuated and agree to anything he said. Really, even Xiao Cao was shaken for a moment, but then she remained steady.
Xiaocao felt that this guy was becoming more and more aggressive. She had never seen him deliberately seduce her before.
Wei Tingyu kept smiling, as if he knew Xiaocao's reaction very well. To be honest, he had problems before. If possible, he naturally hoped that their wedding would be complete and beautiful. He wanted to ride a tall horse to welcome her home. So, he might flirt with her and ask her from time to time, but he still hoped to postpone it. Now it's different. He is almost well. If the wedding date can be set, he should be fully recovered by then. However, seeing his Xuan'er like this...
However, he can wait no matter how long it takes.
Xiaocao went to see Wei Tingyu mainly for hospital matters. After considering her own situation, she sought Wei Tingyu's opinion.
"It's located at the junction of Inner City and South City. It takes all aspects into consideration. When the time comes, we can divide the interior of the hospital to a certain extent. Moreover, after your hospital is built, the current Imperial Hospital may be relocated and rebuilt."
"Um?"
“The original nature remains unchanged, but the construction specifications may be closer to your hospital.”
Xiaocao understood. It was just a typical aristocratic hospital. That was fine.
