Chapter 11 Revolutionary Friendship (Revised)
Today was the sixth day since Qiao Qinglu traveled through time. When she opened her eyes, she still felt it was unreal.
After entering the space, she touched the old furniture such as the bunk beds, large cabinets, and armchairs in the warehouse one by one, and was amazed and impressed by the beautiful and unique texture of the wood. She then went to the study to appreciate the handed-down antiques and jewelry one by one. The craftsmanship was so ingenious and exquisite that she couldn't put it down.
She had heard that many private collections of cultural relics were destroyed during the Cultural Revolution, but because people at the time did not realize how precious cultural relics were, there had been no large-scale crimes such as the smuggling and tomb-robbing of cultural relics in China until the early 1980s. But in the mid-1980s, with the reform and opening up, people stole, smuggled, and robbed tombs for money or to travel abroad, causing many precious cultural relics to end up in Europe and the United States.
Qiao Qinglu knew that her power was limited, but she wanted to do her best to protect more cultural relics and prevent them from being destroyed and forced to travel across the ocean.
After the millennium, she will donate all of these to the country so that more people can appreciate these cultural treasures and understand the charm of our traditional culture and art.
There were many things going on in the past few days, and Qiao Qinglu quickly got out of this mood.
She took the note written by Brother Yong, checked the supplies that could be provided, wrote down the quantity, and then came out of the space to change clothes and wash up.
Just after washing up, Xiao Qinyun brought over breakfast.
After breakfast, she saw off Qiao's father and mother and told them that they would not be back for lunch. Then she put on her cotton jacket and a scarf and followed Xiao Qinyun to the hospital.
Qiao Qinglu sat sideways on the back seat of the bicycle. The road was a bit uneven, and she spontaneously put her arms around Xiao Qinyun's waist.
Now she is pregnant. Although her body is in good condition, she still needs to pay attention to the necessary things.
This sudden closeness confused Xiao Qinyun. Although he was not surprised that Qiao Qinglu specifically asked him to accompany her to the hospital, he also felt that this was an opportunity for the two of them to get closer.
At this moment, Qiao Qinglu suddenly hugged his waist. He could still feel the softness through the thick cotton jacket, which made his whole body tense. His face suddenly turned red to the neck, but he didn't dare to ride too fast for fear of blowing on his wife. He could only take a deep breath to ease his palpitations.
After parking the car at the hospital and registering at the outpatient department, there were several people queuing in front of them, so Xiao Qinyun accompanied Qiao Qinglu to sit on the bench at the door of the clinic and wait.
These days, few men accompany their wives for checkups, especially in the obstetrics and gynecology department, but Xiao Qinyun did not seem embarrassed at all. When it was their turn, he followed Qiao Qinglu into the clinic.
This time they went to see the same old doctor from last time. The old doctor remembered Qiao Qinglu and asked quickly, "Young comrade, are you feeling unwell? Lie down quickly and let me check you out."
Qiao Qinglu obediently lay down on the examination bed and said to the doctor, "I'm not feeling unwell anywhere. I've been feeling pretty good lately, but 'every medicine has its side effects,' so I'm here for a checkup. If I'm fine, I'd like to stop taking the medication."
The old doctor disagreed when he heard this. How could the medicine be stopped? He remembered that the embryo was still unstable when he checked a few days ago. It would take time for Chinese medicine to recover. It had only been 5 days. How could it be recovered?
But looking at this young female comrade, he couldn't say anything harsh, so he could only do a check first and then use the results to convince her.
"Huh," the doctor carefully checked and found that Qiao Qinglu's physical condition was very good and the embryo development was stable. According to the results of this examination, the pregnant woman could indeed stop taking the medicine.
"Congratulations, you are in good health and your baby is developing well. If possible, eat more meat, eggs and fish to supplement your nutrition, and come back for a check-up in 7 weeks." Although the old doctor didn't understand why Qiao Qinglu recovered so quickly, he was sincerely happy for them.
After thanking the doctor, Qiao Qinglu and Xiao Qinyun pushed the cart out of the hospital.
"It's still early, you should go back to the factory to work." Qiao Qinglu suggested.
"No, I'll go to work this afternoon," Xiao Qinyun refused. He lowered his head and asked uncomfortably, "Xiao Lu, what do you think of what I said last time?"
Qiao Qinglu pretended to be dumb, "What's the matter?"
Xiao Qinyun raised his head upon hearing this. He looked at Qiao Qinglu eagerly and said, "Xiaolu, what do you think about our relationship? If you have any concerns, we can talk frankly. I've been thinking about you these past few days!"
Qiao Qinglu blushed at his blunt words. The two of them really needed to have a good talk. She asked, "There's a garden nearby. Shall we go over there and sit down?"
"Okay." Xiao Qinyun happily took her to the Garden of Immortality by bike. After paying for the tickets, they found a sheltered corridor and sat on the fence.
Qiao Qinglu spoke first. "I do have feelings for you, but I have high expectations for love and marriage. But I still have a few questions for you. You said you don't love her. If we were together, would you think of her when you saw this familiar face and this familiar body?"
Xiao Qinyun touched his nose and said with a blushing face, "Qinglu, I'm not familiar with her body. Really, we only had sex a few times on our wedding night. What I love is your interesting soul. That's what I've been looking for, my other half, not your appearance."
