Li Xiu smiled sheepishly. "I was just a little worried, that's all. But Bao'er, you're amazing. The exam will be no problem for you!" He was just worried his wife would be tired, having just finished her postpartum confinement. But who knew she was so sharp she'd see right through him?
Zhou Lian glanced at him, a faint, knowing smile playing on her lips. 'We've been husband and wife for two lifetimes. Of course I know what you're thinking.' Her one-month postpartum confinement had stretched to forty-five days. Anything the doctor said was good for her recovery, Li Xiu would move heaven and earth to procure for her. With the addition of a centuries-old ginseng root, she now felt as strong as an ox. Even the obstetrician had said that in over twenty years of practice, she'd never seen a new mother recover so well!
