"Stop wailing. Your wife is fine. Mother and daughter are both safe."
With that, Ji Anxian picked up the baby beside her and handed her to the proprietor.
"Huh?"
A flicker of bewilderment crossed the proprietor's face.
He knew the baby was fine. After all, he had heard her crying while he was outside.
But how could Xiuniang be fine? He had never heard of anyone surviving after having their belly cut open.
With that thought, he took Xiuniang's hand. It was warm. She really was still alive!
"Her incision will hurt badly once she wakes up. I'll write her a prescription for pain relief. Have her take it once a day for a month. You'll also need to take extra care during that time. I'll explain what to watch out for in a moment."
Ji Anxian addressed the proprietor.
The proprietor nodded instinctively.
"I'll come back to see her tomorrow. Take good care of her tonight."
Ji Anxian thought that, judging by how worried the proprietor had been earlier, he seemed to care deeply about his wife and should be able to look after her well.
Although Jiang Nuan sensed something strange, she could not put her finger on it. After hearing Ji Anxian's words, she nodded and reached for Yun Shining and Ji Anxian, ready to leave with them.
[Host, don't leave the mother and baby with him! He's not a good person!]
Guagua had just finished digging through the proprietor's gossip and immediately spoke up to warn her.
Jiang Nuan and the others stopped in their tracks just as they were about to leave.
Yun Shining knew Guagua would not make reckless claims. She immediately snatched the baby from the proprietor's arms.
"Miss, what do you mean by this?"
The proprietor stared at Yun Shining in bewilderment.
