Chapter 19 The Young Wife is Really Coquettish
The trains these days are not fast. If you take a train from here, you will not arrive until the evening.
Ye Muqi was carrying a large bag of food, including some prepared by Xia Ying and some melon seeds and fruits that she had taken out from the space. How boring would it be to sit there for a whole day without eating something?
It was an old-fashioned train, and the seats were not particularly comfortable. The conditions were simple, and the seats were really hard, without elastic cushions, but just covered with ordinary leather.
It was the first time for Ye Muqi to ride on this old-fashioned train, and he looked around curiously.
The train windows can still be opened, the kind that slide up and down, but they can't be opened very wide.
The seats were facing each other, with a table in the middle. Ye Muqi and Rong Jingchen sat together, facing the direction of the train.
As soon as Ye Muqi sat down, he looked out from the open window.
On the platform, Ye Zhengfeng and Xia Ying had not left yet, and were looking for something in the window of this carriage.
Ye Muqi looked at this scene and suddenly felt a pang in his heart.
"Mom and Dad!" Ye Muqi couldn't help but shout at her parents who were still trying to find her through the window, and even stretched out her hand and waved.
"There it is!" Ye Zhengfeng and Xia Ying rushed over upon hearing the voice. Ye Zhengfeng raised his hand and stuffed a bag of oranges into Ye Muqi's hand.
"I just saw someone selling it, so I bought some. You can eat it in the car." Xia Ying said from the side.
"Thank you, Mom."
Ye Muqi took the bag of oranges that was specially sent to him and felt it was heavy.
The train started and moved slowly. Xia Ying hurriedly shook Ye Muqi's hand for the last time, with a look of reluctance on her face.
"Take good care of yourself over there and call home more often!" Xia Ying shouted.
Watching the train carrying Ye Muqi away, Xia Ying stood on the platform and couldn't help wiping away tears silently.
Ye Zhengfeng's eyes also turned red. He put his arms around Xia Ying's shoulders and didn't look away until the train disappeared from his sight.
"When I get my vacation, we'll come back to see my parents." Rong Jingchen has long been accustomed to this kind of separation. He joined the army at the age of 15, and it has been 11 years now. He was indeed sad when he first left home.
After doing it many times, I got used to it.
But it was obvious that the young wife couldn't adapt.
"good."
Ye Muqi lowered his head, wiped his eyes, and nodded obediently.
…
The train passed several stations. Ye Muqi's novelty about this old-fashioned train had long passed. After sitting on the hard seat for so long, she now only felt severe pain in her back and waist.
My butt hurts too!
Ye Muqi thought about it, took out a thick winter coat from his luggage, put it under his butt, and then he felt better.
"Do you want it?" Ye Muqi asked Rong Jingchen beside him, holding a piece of clothing in his hand.
"No need." Rong Jingchen shook his head and watched Ye Muqi put the clothes behind his back.
I finally felt the tenderness of my young wife.
But being able to think of solutions on my own instead of losing my temper in public is progress.
As more and more people got into the carriage, the small windows were no longer very effective, and the smell in the carriage became stronger and stronger. After all, the journey was long, and people ate all kinds of food in the carriage, and the various smells mixed together and were very unpleasant.
Ye Muqi felt a little uncomfortable, and after a long time, he even felt his stomach churning.
"What's wrong?" Feeling Ye Muqi starting to move around beside him again, Rong Jingchen looked over and found that her expression was not right.
"Hmm... I feel a little carsick." Ye Muqi put his hand on his chest and patted it gently to suppress the nausea that was rising in his heart.
I never thought the second-class seats on the high-speed rail were particularly comfortable before, but compared to this train, the conditions there are like heaven!
Rong Jingchen glanced at the window next to Ye Muqi, sighed in his heart, reached out for the oranges that Ye Zhengfeng had bought for him earlier, peeled them and then handed them to Ye Muqi.
"Oranges can help relieve motion sickness." Rong Jingchen gave her the orange peels as well. "Smelling the peels can also help."
"Um...thank you."
Ye Muqi took the peeled orange. The sweet and sour taste of the orange was indeed able to suppress the churning in her stomach.
And the smell of orange peel can cover up the smell in the car.
Ye Muqi ate several of them before he finally recovered.
"Drink some water." Rong Jingchen added, "If you really feel uncomfortable, just lean back and sleep for a while."
Although Rong Jingchen felt that Ye Muqi was indeed quite coquettish, it was not a new thing for him. Besides, his father-in-law and mother-in-law had already warned him about this today, so he was mentally prepared.
Ye Muqi drank a few sips of water. The train had only been running for a few hours and it was still a long time before it arrived at the station.
Ye Muqi really couldn't sit there like this for more than ten hours. There were no mobile phones or tablets to play with in this era, so he simply listened to Rong Jingchen, leaned his head against the window, and prepared to sleep.
Rong Jingchen watched Ye Muqi close her eyes, looked at her clothes lying on the chair, and then looked at the orange peel he had just peeled...
Can my young wife, who is so delicate, really adapt to life in a family courtyard?
After a while, Ye Muqi fell asleep, leaning against the window. As the train started to sway, she frowned and seemed to be sleeping uncomfortably. Subconsciously, she wanted to find a better position.
So Ye Muqi moved and leaned his head on the back of the chair, but it was still uncomfortable, so he quickly changed direction and fell towards Rong Jingchen.
When leaning her head on Rong Jingchen's shoulder, Ye Muqi relaxed her brows.
Um……
This is a great location!
At such a close distance, Rong Jingchen could even smell the fragrance on Ye Muqi's hair, which was light and faint, like a small world in this carriage full of strange smells.
My wife is feeling carsick, so she will feel better if she can fall asleep now.
Rong Jingchen's Adam's apple rolled slightly twice, and he slowly sank his body down a little and relaxed his body, so that his young wife could sleep more comfortably.
…
Beijing is the final stop.
People got on and off the train. As the train got closer to Beijing, the number of people on the train began to decrease. During this time, Ye Muqi was asleep the whole time and never woke up.
This sleep lasted until five in the afternoon when Ye Muqi finally opened his eyes. He had just woken up and his eyes were confused.
I felt my head resting on a warm and slightly soft place, which was quite comfortable. No wonder I slept so comfortably this night!
Ye Muqi raised her head in a good mood, ready to see what she was leaning on, and saw Rong Jingchen's profile and his angular jawline...
"Awake?" Rong Jingchen noticed the weight on his shoulders disappearing and slowly turned his head.
"Ah..." Ye Muqi nodded unnaturally. Seeing that there were fewer people in the carriage and the smell was not as bad as at the beginning, he felt much better indeed.
"You, is your shoulder okay?" Ye Muqi looked at Rong Jingchen rubbing his shoulder. There was sunset outside.
She slept for a long time, but Rong Jingchen didn't even wake her up?
