Chapter 850: Husband and wife team up to make work less tiring
Yang Rui moved her arms.
There was white gauze and cotton balls on the back of her hand, blocking the needle hole of the IV.
That slender white hand gently grabbed Zhao Shuisheng's clothes.
The fingers were clenched and shook slightly.
"It hurts. Ah Sheng, I have a blister in my mouth. It hurts."
I was in so much pain that I couldn’t eat, so I couldn’t even drink my favorite millet porridge. I just drank some brown sugar water.
It hurt so much that it was difficult to even speak, and if I accidentally touched it, I would hiss.
Yang Rui was originally small, fair and fragile.
Coupled with the fact that he was sick, he looked even more pitiful.
There is no need to pretend to be weak.
Just such a simple sentence was enough to soften Zhao Shuisheng's heart.
When opening your mouth.
The man's face was still tense, but his voice had unconsciously become softer.
"Open your mouth and let me see."
"ah--"
Yang Rui opened her mouth obediently.
There are blisters all over the small mouth. Not to mention eating, just touching it with the tongue would cause bursts of pain.
Zhao Shuisheng clenched his fist tightly at his side.
How come he doesn't know anything about this!
We were clearly people sleeping in the same bed, but we only discovered these things at the last moment.
Zhao Shuisheng fell into deep regret and self-blame.
Yang Rui's fingers that were grabbing his clothes did not let go, and she shook them gently to draw Zhao Shuisheng's attention back.
She said softly.
"Ah Sheng, can we go home now?"
Her watery eyes are full of anticipation.
There was still a smile on his pale face.
Zhao Shuisheng felt a sour and bitter feeling in his heart, and his throat rolled as he spoke.
"Okay, let's go home."
…
The two returned home.
Zhao Shuisheng carried Yang Rui all the way to bed and even took off her shoes and socks with his own hands, wishing he could protect her like a glass doll.
"I made another cup of brown sugar water. It's still hot. If it gets cold later, don't drink it. I'll get a new one."
"The millet porridge is warm on the stove. If you want to eat it anytime, I'll go get it."
"Doctor Pei said you need to go for another IV drip tomorrow and have your temperature checked again. I asked Sister Xu for three days off for you..."
Yang Rui nodded slightly at first.
But when I heard it was "three days."
"No. Three days is too long. I still have a lot of things to do. It will be too late."
"At least three days. You are not allowed to get out of bed during these three days. You must rest at home. We'll see how things go after three days. If your body hasn't recovered, you'll have to continue resting."
Zhao Shuisheng spoke in a firm tone, not giving Yang Rui any chance to refute.
Yang Rui moved her fingers, but under the urgent gaze of the man beside her, she could only accept it helplessly.
that's all.
Yang Rui rested for three full days.
After all, she was young and had a good physical condition. With the help of intravenous drips and medication, as well as Zhao Shuisheng's caring care, she was basically fully recovered by the third day.
Only the blisters in my mouth remained, which had not yet completely healed.
But during these three days, Zhao Shuisheng found different ways to make delicious food for her, all of which were nutritious.
She didn't eat much, but she had a rosy complexion.
He was a completely different person from three days ago when he was in so much pain that he was sweating all over.
It was the fourth day.
Zhao Shuisheng still didn't agree whether he could let her go to work.
But from the moment she had breakfast, there was a hint of intelligence in Yang Rui's watery eyes.
Anyway, Zhao Shuisheng was going to the military camp, and he couldn't get out of it.
As soon as the man left, she went to find Xu Muhua and continued her previous job.
As long as I come back early at night, Zhao Shuisheng won’t find out.
Yang Rui calculated all this in her mind, sipped the millet porridge in small sips, and smiled lightly.
However. ▂
After breakfast, Zhao Shuisheng did not put on his military uniform and go out as usual.
Instead, he sat there motionless, looking at the small half bowl of millet porridge in Yang Rui's hand, which he had not finished yet.
Tick-tick.
The clock made a sound of its pendulum swinging.
Yang Rui looked at the time, then at the man in front of her, and reminded him.
"If you don't go out now, you'll be late."
"I'm on leave."
Zhao Shuisheng answered directly.
Yang Rui was stunned.
She opened her mouth, holding a small bowl in one hand and a spoon in the other, looking dazed.
Ask for leave? !
These words actually came from Zhao Shuisheng's mouth.
You should know that when they got married, Zhao Shuisheng did not ask for marriage leave. He just said that the matters in the military camp were more important and there was no need to ask for leave.
Later, whether he was sick or during the New Year or other holidays, Zhao Shuisheng never took a leave.
Such a man who "regards the military camp as his home" actually took a leave today.
Yang Rui was stunned and couldn't come back to her senses.
Zhao Shuisheng continued speaking.
"I asked Sister Xu. The next place we are going to is Shan'ao Village. It is several hills away. We must set out early in the morning and come back in the evening."
"……?"
Yang Rui was stunned for a moment and hurriedly put down the spoon in her hand.
Her eyes widened in disbelief.
"Are you going with me?"
"Yes." Zhao Shuisheng nodded, "I'm worried about you, so I'll go with you."
The simple words "I'm worried about you" are probably the most touching love words Zhao Shuisheng has said in these three days.
These were the only words uttered by this rough and clumsy man.
What Yang Rui heard in her heart was not just these words, but also the thoughtfulness of the man in front of her.
He knew that Yang Rui would definitely go out secretly...
There was no obstruction, no coercion, no opposition, but he silently chose Yang Rui's side.
Let's go together.
"Ah Sheng, you are so nice."
Yang Rui squinted her eyes and smiled sweetly.
…
In the small courtyard of Jiang Ning's house.
Yang Rui's smile was as sweet as that morning, with a hint of shyness.
She blushed but couldn't help but speak.
"Aning, you don't know that when I went to the village to do mass work, the villagers looked down on me and were not willing to listen to me. But after he went there, everything was different."
"He didn't have to do anything, just sit there in his military uniform! The villagers around him all quieted down and became obedient. They answered whatever I asked, and even the children stopped making noises."
"Sometimes, we still encounter some special difficulties. After all, we are taking someone's child away. He just sat there and said one sentence - I want to take your child to school, will you give it to me or not?"
Yang Rui imitated Zhao Shuisheng's tone and expression at that time and couldn't help laughing.
Jiang Ning listened quietly.
His eyes were fixed on Yang Rui's excited and happy expression.
The picture involuntarily emerged in my mind.
The burly Zhao Shuisheng sat down at the door of a villager's house, wearing a military uniform.
It is imposing, majestic and powerful.
The people that ordinary people trust the most are soldiers, and they will never harm them.
In addition, Yang Rui was there to explain and comfort her.
They are a couple, one gentle and one strong.
A perfect match.
Jiang Ning thought about that scene and started laughing too.
She looked at Yang Rui and teased.
"You two are a couple, so the work is not tiring. The subsequent work will be much smoother, right?"
Yang Rui looked a little shy and nodded slightly.
"Well, with his help, mass work suddenly became easier, so this school was established ahead of schedule."
The two were talking happily.
An enticing aroma wafted from the earthen kiln oven nearby.
