Chapter 36: The Newly-married Wife's Sympathy for Her Husband's Disability and Strong Will
Lu Youyou stood there in a very strange posture.
Gu Qingye looked at him inexplicably: "How long have you been sitting there?"
Lu Youyou shook her head. She didn't know either: "What time is it now?"
"Half past five."
Gu Qingye sighed helplessly. Could it be that she would just sit there without moving?
Lu Youyou was also surprised that she had been writing for almost six hours.
There is a thick pile of manuscript papers on the table, which is the result of an afternoon's work.
"No one is rushing you, there's no need to rush."
Lu Youyou finally recovered. He moved his arms and neck and found that his coccyx also hurt.
"I forgot about it while writing and didn't pay attention to the time."
She wanted to rub her butt, but there was a person standing in front of her and she couldn't do it.
Although Gu Qingye is not a doctor, he is an expert in traumatic injuries. He knew what was wrong with Lu Youyou just by looking at her expression.
He pursed his lips and chuckled, then turned around and said, "You take a rest first, I'll go cook."
Lu Youyou gritted his teeth and soothed the pain, then limped to the door and found a trailer in the yard.
"You pulled the brick back?!"
Lu Youyou felt that she was experiencing what it meant to be "decisive and swift" every day.
"It should be ready tonight, and we'll need to let it air dry for another three to five days. I'm sorry to have troubled you these few days."
Gu Qingye's tone seemed to indicate that he really felt that she had suffered a great injustice.
Lu Youyou immediately waved her hand: "No, no, I'm not feeling wronged. If I felt wronged, others wouldn't be able to live like this."
As she said this, she walked into the kitchen, took out the familiar clay pot, and looked at him with a smile.
"There's no need to rush to build a house, just take your time. You can't work overtime and stay up late at the same time as you're taking care of your body."
Gu Qingye nodded without saying anything, but decided to build it as soon as possible.
Lu Youyou was holding a can and thinking about today's "daily soup", and there was another tin can at her feet.
She looked up happily: "You even got the stove back?"
Gu Qingye smiled and said, "I didn't expect the logistics department to have this thing, so I asked for one."
The stove was black and a bit old, and it would shed dust when you tapped it, but Lu Youyou couldn't let it go.
I saved a pork chop from yesterday and marinated it with salt, so I’ll use it today. I added some astragalus, wolfberry and jujube to it, and a rich aroma wafted from the eaves.
When Gu Qingye raised his eyes, he could see Lu Youyou's face was slightly red from the heat, but she was still standing by the stove.
He couldn't describe the feeling in his heart, a warm current rolled in his chest, and he decided to cover the bathroom tonight.
"This soup replenishes Qi and blood, nourishes the liver and kidneys, and can also fight fatigue. You should try it!"
Lu Youyou held his chin with his hands, his eyes full of anticipation, as if he was watching a towering tree sprouting new buds.
Why didn’t I realize before that cultivation games can bring physical and mental joy? This kind of happiness can’t be bought with money!
The days after marriage were uneventful. Lu Youyou occasionally went up the mountain with Zhao Wan and Li Sanhua, and devoted the rest of her time to reading.
Looking at the thick stack of manuscripts on the table, Lu Youyou couldn't believe that this was the result of her twenty-day work.
When Gu Qingye entered the room, he saw Lu Youyou sitting there in a daze, and thought she was not writing well.
"Would you like me to go for a walk? A change of mindset might help."
Lu Youyou turned his head, dazed, as if he still couldn't come back to his senses.
"No need to change, I'm done."
Although Gu Qingye's expression did not change, only he knew how shocked he was at that moment.
This is not a manuscript, nor is it a thin document outline; it is a complete book.
Lu Youyou let out a long sigh and handed the manuscript paper to Gu Qingye.
"Give it to Squad Leader Zhou for me. We can discuss it in detail after he has read it."
She yawned, and her voice became unclear: "I'm going to sleep. I'm going to sleep all day. Don't call me if there's nothing else. It's better not to call me if there's something else."
When she reached the door of the room, she suddenly remembered that she had not yet completed her "task" for today. She squinted her eyes and said, "There is still chicken stewed with Gastrodia elata and Huangjing on the stove. Don't forget to drink it."
Gu Qingye listened to her instructions one by one, then floated into the bedroom and threw himself directly on the bed.
He casually opened a page and saw the beautiful handwriting as if it had been specially copied, but he knew very well that Lu Youyou only wrote it once.
There was no file bag at home, so Gu Qingye carefully wrapped the manuscript with newspaper.
The girl had fallen asleep, her face pressed against her arms, like a small ball of white and tender rice dumplings, emitting an enticing sweetness.
Gu Qingye helped her take off her shoes and was about to cover her with the quilt, but a corner of the towel blanket was pressed under her shoulders.
His fist clenched and unclenched, and finally passed through Lu Youyou's neck slightly stiffly. He put one hand around her and used the other hand to shake open the quilt and gently cover her with it.
After all these actions, a fine layer of sweat had already appeared on his forehead.
On the bedside table, Xiao Huihui had been raising his head since Gu Qingye entered the room, and his eyes kept following his movements, like a little supervisor.
As soon as Xiao Huihui's mouth opened a little, Gu Qingye pinched it at lightning speed and put his index finger on his lips to signal him to be quiet.
Xiao Huihui rolled his eyes, but due to the limitations of his body structure, Gu Qingye couldn't understand at all.
Is it such an ignorant eagle? !
Lu Youyou forgot to put the food in the pot, so it didn't even bark. It just opened its mouth to signal that it was time for dinner for the number one coolie. In the end, he was blamed for everything. Xiao Huihui just hated himself for not being able to speak human language.
It nagged Gu Qingye angrily. Of course, it had only used 50% of its strength and was still hungry, so a hard laborer couldn't get into any trouble.
It patted its belly with its intact half of wings, and then patted it again after a few seconds.
Gu Qingye didn't understand at first, but Xiao Huihui's movements were so vivid.
The corners of his mouth curled up, and he was also surprised at the eagle's intelligence.
Animals follow their owners. This is obviously a wild young eagle, but its cleverness is not much worse than that of a military dog.
The little thing had always ignored him, but now he knows how to ask for help.
Soon dinner was served. Xiao Huihui ate reluctantly, took a bite and glared at Gu Qingye.
If its dear mother had not fallen asleep, it would not have fallen into the situation of eating grasshoppers.
The room was filled with fragrance, and in front of Gu Qingye stood a bowl of clear yellow chicken soup.
After taking a bite, it still tastes so good.
Lu Youyou seemed to have a special talent for treasure hunting. Every time he went up the mountain, he could bring back a bunch of medicinal herbs that he had heard of and had not heard of.
Angelica, Gastrodia, Panax notoginseng, Aconite, Polygonatum...
Lu Youyou really kept her promise and did things differently every day.
Gu Qingye had never felt that his health was so good, it was even a little too good.
The flag-raising ceremony every morning takes exactly twice as long as in the past.
etc!
Could it be that Lu Youyou thought he was the same as Gu Shuchen...
The string in Gu Qingye's head almost broke.
He lowered his head with a serious look. He felt that the white Gastrodia elata was like a deer's face, and the wrinkled Polygonatum sibiricum was like her twisted brows.
The bowl was no longer filled with soup, but the newlywed wife's pity for her husband's strong will despite his disability.
Gu Qingye felt unwell!
