Chapter 263 Uncomfortable
Lin Siqiao nodded and put on not only a coat but also a scarf and a hat.
Your body is your own, there is no reason not to take care of it.
Soon, Qiao Zhide shouted outside, "Mom, the tractor is here, it's time for them to leave."
Lu Jianchuan responded and went out with his luggage.
Old Mrs. Qiao stuffed the prepared eggs and glutinous rice cakes into Lin Siqiao's hands.
"These are still warm, you can take them with you on the way."
"Um."
Lin Siqiao waved to everyone, "Grandpa, grandma, uncle, aunt, I'm leaving."
Time was very tight, and after arriving at the commune they had to transfer to another bus to go to the dock.
Before I could say anything more, the tractor started moving.
Old Mrs. Qiao trotted after him, wiping her tears and waving her hands.
"Qiao Qiao, be careful on the road, and remember to report safety when you arrive."
"Be well."
Lin Siqiao's eyes unconsciously turned red.
"Got it, grandma. Don't send me off. Come back soon."
The tractor was not going very fast.
But the distance between them kept growing larger and larger until they could no longer see each other.
Lu Jianchuan knew that she was upset, and he didn't try to persuade her, but just held her hand tightly.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the two finally arrived at the ferry terminal in Tongcheng. Qiao Zhiyi had been waiting there since early morning.
"Qiao Qiao, here is the boat ticket, take it."
Lin Siqiao looked down and saw that her second uncle had bought a second-class cabin, but she and Lu Jianchuan were in the same room.
After Qiao Zhiyi handed the purchased fruit to Lu Jianchuan, he gave a brief explanation.
"During the Spring Festival, the ferry tickets are in short supply and there are no extra rooms available."
However, except for the first class cabins, all other cabins on the ship are mixed with men and women, so there is nothing wrong.
Lin Siqiao nodded after listening to it. She didn't care.
Soon, it was time to set off.
Several people waved goodbye.
Like Old Mrs. Qiao, Qiao Zhiyi also stood on the dock for a long time.
The weather today is not very good, and the wind on the river is very strong.
The ferry was so crowded that there was not even a place to sit. After being blown by the river breeze for more than an hour, Lin Siqiao felt very dizzy.
As soon as she got on the Dongfanghong, she curled up in bed.
Lu Jianchuan noticed that Lin Siqiao looked unwell in the morning. He asked her several times on the way, but she said she was fine.
She applied her hand to it and the fever didn't go away, but a lot of sweat came out of her forehead.
"Xiao Qiao, tell me what's wrong with you."
"I'll go to the infirmary to get some medicine."
Lin Siqiao shook her head. She didn’t feel unwell, she was just very sleepy and her stomach was a little bloated.
This medicine doesn't work either.
"I'm fine. I'll be fine after a little sleep."
"Well, then go to sleep. Tell me if you feel uncomfortable."
Lu Jianchuan covered her with another quilt and half-knelt in front of her bed.
Even when he was half asleep and half awake, Lin Siqiao's brows were always slightly furrowed.
It was the first time that Lu Jianchuan saw her so weak and uncomfortable.
She could faintly smell a faint scent of blood. As if he thought of something, Lu Jianchuan's big hand gently covered her lower abdomen.
“Is it uncomfortable here?”
Lin Siqiao didn't say anything, just closed his eyes and nodded gently.
It doesn't hurt, but my waist is very sore.
However, before she could speak, Lu Jianchuan started to rub her.
After an unknown amount of time, Lin Siqiao slightly raised his eyelids.
"What time is it?"
Lin Siqiao tilted her head to glance at Lu Jianchuan. She remembered that before going to bed, Lu Jianchuan seemed to have rubbed her belly and was still rubbing it.
"It's past three."
After Lu Jianchuan finished speaking, he asked her in a low voice, "Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?"
"I don't want to eat."
Lin Siqiao shook her head. She had no appetite yet.
"How about some water?"
Hearing his gentle voice, Lin Siqiao burst out laughing.
"Lu Jianchuan, why do I feel like you treat me like a child?"
"It's just a child."
Seeing her smile, Lu Jianchuan was relieved. "Does your stomach still hurt?"
"There's still a little bit, but it's much better now."
Lin Siqiao reached out and pinched his cheek, "Don't frown, I just didn't get enough rest yesterday, it's not a big deal."
After saying that, she was about to stand up.
After lying there for a few hours, my bones became weak.
It's time to get down and move around.
Lu Jianchuan didn't say anything, but he didn't let her leave the room.
"It's windy outside. If it blows too much, I'll get a migraine."
"If you want to move around, there's the corridor."
Lin Siqiao was helpless as she met a partner who was like an old cadre. When it came to maintaining her body, Lin Siqiao was completely no match for him.
Lu Jianchuan didn't let her go out for dinner, but went to the restaurant to get food back.
Looking at the porridge, side dishes and highly concentrated brown sugar water in front of him, Lin Siqiao was speechless.
She just had her period...why was she deprived of the right to eat delicious food?
What’s even more speechless is that after dinner.
Lu Jianchuan directly prepared hot water, so she didn't even have to get out of bed to wash.
At around ten o'clock in the evening, the ship docked at the Xiaguan Ferry in Jinling City. Like Shanghai, Jinling also has taxi service at night.
It was already past half past ten when the two arrived at the city railway station, but there were still many people queuing up to buy train tickets.
Lin Siqiao was not worried because she had a letter of introduction from the ministry and Lu Jianchuan had his military officer certificate, so they were not worried about not being able to buy a ticket.
Lu Jianchuan found a sheltered place and put his luggage away.
"Xiao Qiao, wait here for me. I'll go buy the tickets."
Lin Siqiao immediately shook his head after hearing this, "No, I'll go with you."
Lu Jianchuan frowned. There were a lot of people queuing up, so there was no need for her to join them to get some fresh air.
"I can go alone, it will be quick."
Lin Siqiao still shook her head. She was not that clingy, she was just a little worried.
She was afraid that she might not be careful, so Lu Jianchuan bought two train tickets to Beijing.
Don’t ask why, just ask women’s intuition.
In Lin Siqiao's opinion, Lu Jianchuan was very likely to do such a thing.
Sure enough, after hearing what Lin Siqiao said, Lu Jianchuan was obviously a little uncomfortable, as if he had been seen through.
He was not very comfortable with Lin Siqiao returning to Beijing alone.
After seeing how miserable she was today, I became even more worried.
"Xiao Qiao——"
"No room for negotiation!"
Lin Siqiao felt that there was no need for this at all. Going from here to Beijing, and then waiting there to take the same day train back to Shanghai, wasn't this crazy?
"You have already taken several days of travel from the south to Tongcheng."
"Do you really want to die if you keep going back and forth like this?"
Lin Siqiao enjoyed his considerate care, but she was not someone who could not live without the care of others.
She is not even at ease when riding on a train, and she has to go abroad in April. Is she going to tie Lu Jianchuan to her belt and take him with her?
