The Rough Hunter’s Little Lucky Wife Novel - Chapter 191

191 Departure

“When the time comes, we’ll pretend to be in dire straits and hide with them.”

Zhao Zhan nodded in agreement.

Time passed quickly when it came to farming. During this time, other than plowing the land and preparing to plant winter wheat, the people in Willow Village were busy harvesting soybeans and chili.

After seeing the silver earned by Yang Dashan, everyone treated the things in the ground as future investments.

!!
After waiting for Zhao Zhan to weigh the harvest and calculate the silver, he explained everything clearly and asked Yang Dashan and Yang Maozhong to help keep an eye on the drying soybeans and chili skewers. Then, he left with Yue Jiaojiao.

Before Zhao Zhan left home, he was restless every night. He was always thinking about the worst-case scenarios, afraid that he would miss something that would make his lover uncomfortable on the road.

Every night he lay in bed, thinking about everything and not daring to move. He was as stiff as a piece of wood.

If it wasn’t for the fact that Yue Jiaojiao couldn’t take it anymore and deliberately lay in his arms every night, her little hands moving around restlessly so that Zhao Zhan couldn’t think about anything else, Zhao Zhan would probably be half-dead by the time they set off.

Thinking of this, Yue Jiaojiao, who was lying in the carriage, could not help but raise her head to look at Zhao Zhan.

He stayed up all night to do so many things that exhausted his energy, yet he was energetic the next day the moment they left. It probably wouldn’t matter if he stayed up a few more nights like this, right?

Sensing his lover looking at him, Zhao Zhan lowered his head and looked over.

“Are you tired from lying down?” Zhao Zhan held her in his arms and said in a gentle voice, “We’re almost at Huai County.”

Yue Jiaojiao shook her head.

Compared to the first time she went to Huai County, the carriage was much more comfortable. She didn’t have any signs of motion sickness when lying on it.

Zhao Zhan had brought three big bags with him. He was strong, so one of the three big bags was filled with the clothes she wanted to wear, one was filled with dry food, and the last one was filled with toys and a few books.

Seeing that she wasn’t sleepy, Zhao Zhan took out a book from his bag. “I’m worried that you’ll get dizzy if you read. Why don’t I read it to you? ”

“Alright.”

Yue Jiaojiao closed her eyes in a relaxed manner.

Zhao Zhan’s voice had a magnetic and sincere feeling. It was not as clear as a teenager’s voice, but it had the steady and reliable charm of an adult man.

As Yue Jiaojiao listened, she became so sleepy that her mind became a little muddled.

When she woke up, she realized she was swaying a little on the bed. The room was narrow and utterly different from the inn. Yue Jiaojiao sat up and looked around, only to realize that she was already on the boat.

As someone who used to struggle to sleep well, Yue Jiaojiao was a little shocked by the change in her sleep quality.

It was because he had been tossed and turned by Zhao Zhan at night and was really too tired!

Just as she was thinking about this, she saw Zhao Zhan push open the door and enter the room.

The door on this ship was really a bit of a grievance for Zhao Zhan. He had to bend down and lower his head to enter the door.

“A few days ago, I sent a letter to Manager Li, asking him to find a cargo ship at the dock,” Zhao Zhan explained.

“A cargo ship is safer than a passenger ship. This cargo ship is transporting cloth to Jiangnan, and it will drop us off when it passes Hekou County.

“It’s not easy to eat hot food on the ship. I just went out to discuss with them about borrowing their stove to heat up dry food every day when the wind and waves calm down. When the ship stops along the way, I will go ashore and buy some hot food for you.”
