Chapter 507: Chapter 506 - A Rough Ride, Exhausted Yet?_1
In those years, carriages did not have a shock absorption feature. Traveling on rough mountain roads, Su Pan’er felt as if her body was falling apart, that every part of her was aching.
As soon as the business team arrived in a small town, she wished to leave the carriage and continue by foot.
Others in the carriage, noticing that they arrived at a place where they could rest, were chatty with excitement.
Peering through the lifted curtain, Su Pan’er observed the surroundings. Everywhere was bathed in green, with houses of green bricks and stones stacked on each other, orderly yet distinctive.
The streets were bustling with people. Despite its late time, everyone hurried about, making the town seem lively.
The town might have been small, but it had everything one could need. Taverns, tearooms, textile stores, brothels, and more. Street vendors were scattered everywhere, their noisy chatter filled the air.
The business team stopped before an inn with a weathered curtain.
It took Su Pan’er a while to decipher the words on the faded curtain. It was named "Destined Inn".
The curtain fluttered and flapped in the cold wind under the eaves, creating a restless noise.
The inn was apparently doing well. Besides their business team, several other business teams had stopped outside. Customers coming in and out made it a lively scene.
Qin Yi rushed to protect her as she left the carriage and helped her into the inn, "Are you exhausted from the bumpy journey?"
Su Pan’er nodded, indeed she was exhausted.
"Well, it’s not too bad. It’s just that the carriage was awfully bumpy. I wanted to take a nap but couldn’t manage to fall asleep."
The carriage could not compare with the one at home. Plus, ever since she became pregnant, she had started to rest in the afternoon. The carriage was noisy with people talking, making it impossible for her to sleep.
"You must be tired. Once we return to the room, you should get some rest."
As he spoke casually, the fingers of his hand, which was holding hers, lightly scratched her palm. His rough palm against her soft one startled Su Pan’er and she suddenly let go of his hand.
Her heart pounded rapidly. She quickly looked around, thankfully everyone was busy checking in and nobody noticed.
"What’s wrong? Have I said something wrong?"
Qin Yi played innocent and smiled slightly at the sight of Su Pan’er’s embarrassed expression, which instantly lifted his mood.
All the fatigue from the day’s journey seemed to have faded away.
Which man wouldn’t want to see his beloved woman smiling warmly, showing her shy and fickle expressions in his arms?
It made him want to hold her and take care of her gently.
During their conversation, they arrived at the place where they were going to stay in the rear courtyard of the inn.
Although the town was small, the rear courtyard of the inn was surprisingly large. Qin Yi chose a south-facing room in a small courtyard, where everyone from their convoy was staying. This made it better for carrying out mutual care. Because of Su Pan’er’s pregnancy, he chose a room that was warmer and more sheltered from the wind.
After giving some copper coins to the waiter as a tip, he personally fetched some hot water from the kitchen and brought back a few dishes.
But he found that Su Pan’er was curled up in a ball, leaning against the head of the bed, about to fall asleep.
He quickly went up to pat her back lightly, "Wake up! Pan’er, the meal is here. Eat something before you sleep, or you might upset your stomach."
Su Pan’er, almost unable to keep her eyes open, managed to sit up to eat some food, and then cleaned herself with warm water. Only then did she feel somewhat refueled.
"Have you asked yet? How much longer until we reach Yongzhou City?"
"I’ve asked. If we set off tomorrow morning, we should arrive in Yongzhou by noon."
Qin Yi carefully massaged Su Pan’er’s legs. Since becoming six months pregnant, her legs had begun to swell slightly. After sitting in the carriage all day, her legs had become more swollen, hindering her smooth walk.
If she wasn’t pregnant, she could have used her Inner Strength to reduce the swelling. But since she was pregnant, she didn’t dare to practice her cultivation of Inner Strength, let alone using it to reduce her swelling.
Qin Yi noticed her discomfort and carefully rubbed her legs to help stimulate her circulation.
"I’ve been thinking, when we get to Yongzhou City, let’s stay in an inn for a few days. Until your body feels better, then we’ll make plans. What do you think?"
He was worried that Su Pan’er’s body couldn’t handle all the travel that’s why he said it.
After all, they were not in a rush. Staying in Yongzhou City for a few more days would be better than risking Pan’er’s discomfort on the boat.
Su Pan’er clearly understood his concern.
"Let’s discuss it when the time comes."
She gave a vague answer and closed her eyes, not committing to anything. If she was feeling fine, whatever will be, will be.
Looking at the girl in his arms who was already on the brink of sleep, Qin Yi’s eyes shone brightly and he said in a low voice.
"Sleep now?"
Su Pan’er didn’t answer with her eyes closed.
Only then did Qin Yi get up to bolt the door, blew out the large candlelight in the room, fumbled his way to the bed, lifted the curtain, found the corner of the blanket, took off his shoes and climbed in.
