The Imperial Concubine Just Wants to Be a Salted Fish

Xiao Xixi transmigrated back to ancient times and became one of the Crown Prince's concubines.

Chapter 377: Survival from Despair

Xiao Xixi wet a cloth with white wine and wiped it on Luo Qinghan's neck, limbs, waist and abdomen.

Wipe again and again, repeatedly.

When alcohol evaporates quickly, it can take away some heat.

This is a very stupid method, but the conditions are limited now. Xiao Xixi has no other choice but to use this stupid method to cool down Luo Qinghan.

Yue Laosan stood nearby and watched. It was the first time he saw someone using this method to treat a patient, and it seemed quite novel.

Xiao Xixi drank up the entire bowl of white wine.

She was so tired that sweat broke out on her forehead.

At this time, the sky outside the window had already brightened, but the snow had not stopped. The ground was covered with a thick layer of snow, and the branches were bent by the snow.

Yue Lao San asked: "Do you want more white wine?"

Xiao Xixi pressed her forehead against Luo Qinghan's cheek and felt that his temperature had dropped a little.

It seems that the alcohol cooling method is effective.

She gave a tired but lively smile: "No, my husband is feeling better now, thank you."

Yue Lao San said with emotion: "You are so good to your husband."

Xiao Xixi said seriously: "Because he is very good to me."

Yue Laosan nodded and agreed.

"That's right, people are like this. If he treats you well, you treat him well too. Only in this way can your life get better and better."

He paused and continued, "Although you have suffered a great disaster and suffered heavy losses, I can see that your husband is not an ordinary person, and you are also a rare good girl. You will definitely be able to survive and turn bad times into good times."

Xiao Xixi nodded vigorously: "Yes! We will all be able to turn bad times into good times!"

Yue Laosan took the empty bowl and turned around and walked out.

Xiao Xixi was really tired.

After making sure that the prince's temperature had dropped, she could no longer hold on, so she crawled into bed, pulled up the quilt, and quickly fell asleep.

Not long after, Luo Qinghan woke up.

When he saw Xiao Xixi sleeping soundly beside him, the confused thoughts in his mind gradually became clear.

He knew that he had a fever last night, and he could probably guess that it was Xiao Xixi who took care of him all night.

He propped himself up and sat up, then leaned over and gave her a gentle kiss on the forehead.

Xiao Xixi was sleeping soundly and was unaware of the kiss.

Luo Qinghan put on his clothes and walked out of the house.

Yue Laosan was walking towards the kitchen carrying a bundle of firewood. When he saw him coming out, he stopped and greeted him.

"How are you feeling? Are you feeling better?"

Luo Qinghan: "Much better, thank you for taking me in and helping me."

Because of his illness, his voice was a little hoarse and his skin was abnormally pale.

Yue Lao San said to him in a tone of an experienced person: "The person you should thank the most is your wife. Last night when you had a fever, it was your wife who stayed by your side and took care of you attentively. I was moved by her look. It is difficult to find such a good wife. It is your blessing to marry her. You must treat her well in the future and don't let her down."

Luo Qinghan nodded: "I will treat her well."

Yue Laosan put the firewood into the kitchen, and then invited Luo Qinghan to have breakfast together.

The breakfast prepared by Mrs. Deng was very simple, just a pot of steamed sweet potatoes and a pot of brown rice porridge.

Luo Qinghan finished a sweet potato and a bowl of brown rice porridge without changing his expression.

If it were such rough food in the past, he would definitely not even look at it, but now he is not picky and it is good enough to have something to eat.

Mrs. Deng specially made more breakfast.

She gave out a bowl of brown rice porridge and a sweet potato and said, "Leave these to your wife. When she wakes up, you can give them to her."

Luo Qinghan nodded and said yes.

He returned to the house carrying his breakfast in his good hand.

Xiao Xixi was still sleeping soundly, but when she smelled the fragrance of food, she suddenly sat up from the bed.

She sniffed and followed the smell to the table.

Luo Qinghan originally wanted to remind her to brush her teeth before eating, but when he saw how tired she looked, he didn't say it in the end.

She finished the sweet potato and brown rice porridge in just a few bites.

She licked the bottom of the bowl clean, still unsatisfied.

Luo Qinghan looked at the rice bowl that had been licked until it was shiny and fell silent for a moment.

He began to wonder if he had an illusion last night? Why did he find her so cute?

What's so cute about a woman who licks the bottom of a bowl clean?!

After making sure there was nothing else to eat, Xiao Xixi set her eyes on the prince. She reached out and touched his forehead, saying with satisfaction, "It's not hot anymore. It looks like the fever has completely subsided."

Luo Qinghan: "Thank you for your hard work last night."

"You were injured because of me, so it's my duty to take care of you."

Xiao Xixi yawned: "Are we leaving now?"

Luo Qinghan looked at her tired face and said calmly, "It's still snowing outside. Let's rest for a while and leave when the snow stops."

"Then I'll sleep a little longer. If you want to leave, just call me."

"Um."

Xiao Xixi quickly got into bed and continued to catch up on her sleep.

Luo Qinghan walked out of the house holding an empty bowl.

Yue Laosan was feeding the turtles. When he saw Luo Qinghan coming, he took out the little turtle that belonged to Luo Qinghan.

"Here, this is your turtle."

Luo Qinghan took the turtle and placed it in his palm. It was so scared that it retracted its head into its shell and lay motionless, like a dead turtle.

Yue Lao San smiled and said, "Most people buy turtles to eat. Not many people keep turtles as pets like you do."

Luo Qinghan ruthlessly passed the blame to Xiao Xixi.

"Because my wife likes to keep turtles, she insisted on keeping one, and I had no choice."

Yue Lao San laughed even more happily: "Does she particularly like small animals?"

Luo Qinghan: "Yes."

"How much do you like it?"

Luo Qinghan: "How can I put it? It's available every meal."

Yue Lao San: “…”

After a suffocating silence, Yue Laosan laughed awkwardly twice and then decisively changed the subject.

"How long have you and your wife been married? Do you have any children?"

Luo Qinghan: "We've been married for a year and have no children."

Yue Lao San said with emotion, "It's only been a year, there's no rush. My wife and I were married for five years before we had a daughter. After that, she never got pregnant again. She has always regretted this, but I think it's good. Giving birth to a child is too dangerous. She almost died when she gave birth to a daughter. I still feel scared when I think about it now. One is enough. I don't want her to have any more."

Luo Qinghan hasn't thought about having children for the time being.

He can barely take care of himself now, if he has a child, the child will definitely have a hard life.

It would be fine if he suffered himself, but he didn't want his children to suffer as well.

Yue Laosan chatted with him a lot.

Luo Qinghan doesn't like to talk much, but he listens very carefully and is a competent listener.

The old and the young chatted quite harmoniously.
