Concern
How was she supposed to answer that?!
Lin Suisui blinked and thought for a moment before explaining in detail. For example, what Mrs. Luo had said about the two sisters’ current situation and what they might have thought of him.
“But I’m already married.” Lu Ze’s expression was indifferent after hearing Lin Suisui’s analysis. He even looked back at Lin Suisui with a hint of reproach. He acted like it was obvious. Lin Suisui’s face burned. She snorted with an uneasy expression and found an excuse to turn around and get into the ox cart. She quickly and decisively ended this conversation.
Lu Ze looked at the swaying curtains and was very cooperative. He didn’t say anything else about this matter.
When the rabbit meat was roasted and he called Lin Suisui out for dinner, there was no longer any awkwardness between the two of them because of what had happened previously.
But just because they wanted to turn the page didn’t mean the others thought the same.
The rain only cleared up after two days, but because the road was too muddy, the higher-ups finally decided to rest for two more days and set off when the weather cleared.
Seeing that the weather had turned sunny, Lin Suisui also wanted to go to the nearby forest to see if she could dig some wild vegetables to cook porridge.
However, with Lu Ze’s instructions last time, she didn’t go out with Mrs. Luo and the others this time. Instead, she followed Lu Ze into the mountain.
Because they were stuck here, Lu Ze made a few simple traps. This time, he entered the mountain to see if there was anything in the traps. The road up the mountain was slippery. Although Lu Ze deliberately slowed down, Lin Suisui still almost fell a few times.
In the end, Lu Ze couldn’t stand it anymore. He squatted down with his back facing Lin Suisui and whispered, “I’ll carry you up the mountain.”
“This isn’t appropriate, right? I, I can go up the mountain myself!”
Lin Suisui was not trying to act tough. Although the ground was wet and slippery, she had experience entering the mountain in such an environment, so it only looked a little dangerous. She knew how to protect herself.
Moreover, although the person in front of her was in trouble now, according to her understanding, this person would definitely not be an ordinary person in the future!
So where did she get the courage to let the crown prince carry her up the mountain?!
“Are you waiting for me to watch you fall to your death?!” Lu Ze turned around and glanced at Lin Suisui in dissatisfaction. His tone was unprecedentedly stern. “If you continue to dawdle, the prey in the trap might run away!”
Seeing Lu Ze like this, Lin Suisui only hesitated for a moment. In the end, she obediently lay on Lu Ze’s sturdy back and let him carry her up the mountain.
“Hold on tightly.” Lu Ze suddenly stopped after taking two steps. He turned his head unhappily and instructed Lin Suisui, who was lying on his back but was tense and stiff, “If you want to fall, continue to be tense!”
Lin Suisui’s face turned red, but she still listened to Lu Ze’s instructions. Her legs tightened around his waist, and her hands tightened around his neck. She was afraid that he would really get annoyed and throw her down!
When Lu Ze arrived near the trap set up, he put Lin Suisui down and instructed her to look for wild herbs here. He went to the trap set up at the side to check his gains.
This way, he wouldn’t be far from Lin Suisui. Even if there was an emergency, he could rush over immediately to resolve it.
Little White was whining in the basket, but Lin Suisui glanced at the muddy ground and rejected its desire to get on the ground and play.
“Little White, the ground is covered in mud. If you come down and roll around, you’ll become a mud monkey. It’s cold and it’s not convenient to bathe you. In a few days, I’ll let you out to play for a while after the ground is dry!”
As Lin Suisui squatted down to dig for herbs and wild vegetables, she discussed with Little White, who was humming unhappily in the basket behind her.
After Little White’s finished recuperating, it was growing every day.
From the looks of it, they wouldn’t be able to hide this little fellow before they reached their destination!
The vegetation in the forest was dense, and there were even more herbs inside. In just a short while, Lin Suisui had dug up half a basket.
At this moment, Lu Ze also walked over with two pheasants. When he saw Lin Suisui, he first brought the prey to her to take a look. Then, he said in a happy tone, “I can use them to make soup for you in the next two days.”
“But you don’t like soup!” This time, when Lu Ze turned his back to her, Lin Suisui didn’t hesitate anymore. She lay on his back and let him carry her to the next destination.
After interacting with him for so long, Lin Suisui had some understanding of Lu Ze’s eating habits.
He didn’t like vegetables, but he liked meat! He was not too interested in soup. Every time, Lin Suisui had to coax him to drink half a bowl of ginger soup to ward off the cold. For at least an hour after he drank it, his expression was still dark.
Therefore, most of the chicken soup that she had stewed previously entered her and Little White’s stomachs. Lu Ze wouldn’t touch it.
“Isn’t your period coming soon?” Lu Ze asked casually, causing Lin Suisui, who was lying on his back, to tremble and almost lose control and fall off Lu Ze’s back.
This, this kind of thing…
Lin Suisui was so embarrassed that she wished she could dig a hole and hide in it.
However, Lu Ze couldn’t be blamed for this. It was probably because of her physique that the last time she came, she was in so much pain that she wished she was dead.
At that time, in order to make her feel better, Lu Ze even specifically used the hares he had hunted to exchange for some brown sugar and boiled brown sugar ginger water for her.
It was probably because she had suffered too much last time that Lu Ze remembered this matter clearly.
“I asked Mrs. Luo before. Mrs. Luo said that if there’s no brown sugar ginger water, it’s the same to make chicken soup.” Lu Ze didn’t think too much about it. He just wanted to make Lin Suisui feel better.
If he had not encountered this accident and was still in the East Palace, he only needed to arrange for the imperial physician to take his pulse and nurse his body. What kind of rare herbs couldn’t he get?!
But now, there was a limit to what he could do.
Lu Ze was carrying Lin Suisui on his back. At this moment, he was actually blaming himself.
Actually, most young girls like her were still wheedling around their fathers and brothers. If not for him, how could she have suffered so much?!
Lu Ze was distracted by these thoughts when he felt the little girl’s body on his back stiffen. Just as she leaned towards his ear to remind him that someone was there, he had already quickly brought Lin Suisui into a bush at the side.
