Chapter 69 Sleep together (1)
Chen Hui walked down the lower ramp. After looking around for a while and she didn’t see any snakes, insects, rats or ants, she took off her pants and squatted.
After a while, she said, “Lord, you can go a bit further away…You are so close, I’m a bit…unable to get it out…”
Li Youde cursed in his heart and walked a bit further away. While he walked, he said, “Hurry up!”
Chen Hui heard Li Youde’s voice coming from far away and felt a bit relieved. She quickly solved her personal problem and climbed up the hill to find him.
“Lord, I’m done!” Chen Hui smiled slightly and asked again, “Won’t you also go?”
“No need,” Li Youde glared once at Chen Hui and he didn’t look that happy.
Chen Hui said, “But lord, if you don’t take this opportunity to solve it outside, do you want to go back to the carriage? There definitely will be an odor…”
Li Youde glared coldly at Chen Hui. For a moment, he also didn’t know what he could say.
He regretted it now. Why did he agree to let her stay? It was better to send her back!
“Lord, this Lady Chen will go a bit further and keep watch for you. Don’t worry, no one would pass by me!” Chen Hui ran away while speaking.
Li Youde stood there for a while. He frowned when he thought about what Chen Hui said. He looked around with disgust and finally choose a slope.
After Chen Hui waited for a while, Li Youde walked to her side and said with expression, “Let’s go.”
“Yes, lord.” Chen Hui followed Li Youde. After taking two steps, she said, “Lord, will we be eating in the open air and sleep outdoors this whole journey?”
- To eat in the open air and sleep outdoor: to have it rough
Li Youde glanced at her with a chuckle and said mockingly, “If you can’t bear it, you can go back.”
“How could that be?! As long as it is with lord, this Lady Chen can bear any hardship!” Chen Hui quickly said and then changed the topic, “I’m just worried that if it’s like this the whole way, wouldn’t lord suffer then? This Lady Chen’s heart will ache.”
“Bogus,” Li Youde gave her a sidelong glance and took a quick step. Without letting her see the slightly upraised corners of his lips, he walked a few steps before saying, “We may not find a suitable place today. We can only bear with it. We can find a stop closer to the town for a rest tomorrow. We can have a good rest then.”
“Yes lord!” Chen Hui chased after him. She was naturally happy knowing that she could go to rest normally in a town. Although it was autumn now, she couldn’t bear not having a bath for ten or more days.
Reaching the carriage, Chen Hui was afraid that Qi Shengwen would see her again and quickly followed Li Youde into the carriage. As soon as they sat well, they heard Ah Da say, “Lord, sir Lang is here.”
Chen Hui noticed that Li Youde’s face changed abruptly. Even the corners of his mouth curled up evilly. He didn’t go out and said separated by the door of the carriage, “Sir Lang, are you here to give an explanation about the matter of the spy?”
“Lord Li, there are presumably some misunderstandings on this matter,” The voice outside the carriage sounded cultured and refined, giving people a not rushing or pressing feeling.
Li Youde sneered, “Misunderstanding? What misunderstanding could there be? Sir Lang, you are the commander-in-chief. If this battle is not fought beautifully, you will be the first one to be inquired by the emperor. You have to keep your eyes open!”
Lang Yu said, “Lord Li, don’t worry. Gentleman Qi is indeed a credible person. I already know him for two years. If lord still has doubts, I am willing to stand guarantee for him.”
“Good!” Li Youde laughed, “Since sir Lang said so, I can’t say much more. If anything goes wrong with the battle from now on, I will truthfully report it to the emperor!”
Chen Hui glanced at Li Youde. He deserved to be called a professional specialized in causing trouble. That person was obviously saying that he was guaranteeing for Qi Shengwen, but when it reached him (LY), it was directly extended to the entire war.
It was unknown whether Lang Yu heard that or not or that he didn’t care after hearing it. He only agreed, “That ought to be so. Lord Li, I still have affairs to attend to. I will bid you goodbye.”
“Sir Lang, please be on your way,” Li Youde showed a triumphant smile on his face.
Chen Hui understood. Judging from that sir Lang’s response, the disparity between the two was obviously Li Youde’s problem. Probably except for Wang Youcai, the hostility that Li Youde has with anyone was his problem. As for the conflict with Wang Youcai, this was because both have problems.
Not long after Lang Yu left, lunch was served by Ah Da and Ah Er. At this time, the marching of the army was not urgent. Ten people sat around a stove. They cooked the rice they brought with water and added a tiny bit of bacon and vegetables. That would be a delicious porridge. Li Youde naturally didn’t eat that. His people brought some fresh ingredients and stir-fried them on the scene. Ultimately, the dishes on the table were less than when they were in the residence, but compared with the food of the soldiers, they were on a much higher level.
Chen Hui reflected in the glory and eat a delicious meal with Li Youde in the carriage. After Li Youde put down his chopsticks, there were a lot of dishes left. He rewarded them to Ah Da and Ah Er. The two took the dishes out gratefully and called the others to eat together.
Chen Hui originally actually prepared to endure hardships, but it seemed that her psychological preparations may have been in vain. It was like an outing this way and not like marching to war!
Not long after the meal, there was a rhythmic drumbeat, which was a signal to start again after the break.
The carriage gradually started moving. When Chen Hui thought about having nothing to do in the afternoon that is coming, she felt crazy. She took out the flying chess that she had prepared a long time ago and spread it in front of Li Youde. She looked at him expectantly and said, “Lord, let’s play chess!”
“Play chess? What kind of chess is this?” Li Youde frowned and stared at what Chen Hui took out. With a look of disgust, he said, “What kind of mess is this?!”
“Lord, this is a different kind of chess. Let me teach you how to play it!” Chen Hui said, “We should do something to pass time.”
Li Youde looked once at her and only hesitated for a moment before saying, “Explain!”
Chen Hui explained once full of zest. Li Youde naturally understood it quickly because of the simple rules. Chen Hui was on the diagonal line with him and let him roll the dice first. The game started.
Li Youde’s luck was very bad. While Chen Hui threw a six four times and released all her chess pieces from home, Li Youde’s didn’t even release one. His expression turned worse with Chen Hui’s chess pieces coming out. Chen Hui felt that if he still couldn’t throw a six, he might tear the chessboard. However, playing this was based on luck. Even if she wanted to give him a pass, she was unable to. She was also in despair!
When Li Youde finally threw a six, Chen Hui almost wanted to celebrate with a square dance. His clouded face finally cleared up slightly.
After spending the afternoon like this, the army finally stopped again. Chen Hui followed Li Youde out of the carriage. She walked around and stretched her limbs. She consciously felt like a thief. She cautiously avoided Qi Shengwen for fear of being discovered by him. Although it wasn’t a big deal if he was discovered her, but he wanted him to know that she was here a bit later.
After eating a sumptuous dinner, Chen Hui suddenly found out that the soldiers not far away were camping. Because they weren’t in a hurry, they didn’t have to also rush at night and could rest peacefully at night. It was because seeing this that Chen Hui realized that she might be sleeping in the carriage with Li Youde tonight, if he agreed.
After dinner, Chen Hui walked a few circles with Li Youde. Seeing that the sky had darkened and the two of them walked back to the carriage, she whispered, “Lord, tonight…does this Lady Chen has to sleep with Ah Da and the others?”
“You dare?!” Li Youde turned his head and glared at Chen Hui, “What is there in your head?!”
Chen Hui put on an appearance that it was her mistake. She lowered her head and didn’t say anything.
Li Youde said, “It is not cold at night. Let’s make do with the situation today!”
Chen Hui nodded and didn’t raise her head as if she was shy.
There was a strange feeling in his heart when Li Youde thought about the two sleeping together in the small carriage tonight.
