San Ya suddenly said, "Sister Jiao Jiao, you’ve gained so weight."
This morning, Yun Jiao thought she looked a bit chubbier in the mirror. Since getting pregnant, her appetite unknowingly increased quite a bit.
After the al, once Granny Tian cleaned the iron pot, Yun Jiao pointed to the nearby tent and said, "That tent from now on will be ours. Tonight, we can sleep inside."
San Ya nearly jumped for joy, "Great, I don’t have to sleep on the muddy ground today."
Everyone quickly packed up, and Gu Yuheng drove the carriage over.
Yun Jiao went inside the tent to take a look. The floor was covered with wooden planks, which were then overlaid with felt mats. This was much better than sleeping on the ground directly, at least there was no moisture.
More importantly, they didn’t have to worry about rain.
Gu Yuheng also ca in to have a look, "Nice, from now on, Uncle and I will sleep outside in the carriage, while you won with children sleep in the tent."
Yun Jiao nodded, "Alright, Dad’s arrangent is good."
Just then, two soldiers ca in carrying a bath bucket, along with two wooden tubs.
After the soldiers left, Lady Wu exclaid excitedly, "My goodness, finally we can give Ruru a bath. If she didn’t get to bathe soon, she wouldn’t be able to stand it."
May’s weather was already very hot. After walking all day, everyone was covered in dust and sweat, unable to bathe, making it itchy to sleep at night.
Gu Yuheng, Uncle, and Granny Tian went to fetch water.
They boiled the water in the iron pot and mixed it with cold water. Ruru bathed first, followed by the won taking turns.
Gu Yuheng and Uncle led Liu Lang and Gu Chuan to the river, undressed, and bathed thoroughly before coming ashore.
n were bathing everywhere by the riverside. At this mont, the water was still a bit cold. Gu Chuan trembled while standing in the shallow water, barely managing to finish bathing.
On the way back, Gu Yuheng urged them to collect quite a few dry branches. Back at the camp, he had Gu Chuan sit by the fire, and soon Gu Chuan stopped shivering.
Yun Jiao also washed her hair and bathed, now sitting by the fire combing her hair.
The comb she had taken this morning after a maid combed her hair. She had slyly slipped it into her own pocket, feeling that her face had grown thicker, and gathering small items for survival really wasn’t a big deal.
While combing her hair, Lin Shishi ca over carrying a package.
She smiled slightly, "These are clothes for you. Don’t worry, I personally picked them out, all unworn clothes."
Yun Jiao opened the bundle to find so toiletries inside as well, and stood up to thank her.
Lin Shishi smiled but didn’t hurry to leave, sitting down by the fire.
She looked at Lady Wu not far off, "Previously, I envied won like Lady Wu, who didn’t rely on n, could stand on their own, and many n feared her."
Yun Jiao smiled, "Not anymore, right?"
Lin Shishi watched Lady Wu cradling Ruru, "Yes, only now do I realize that in so matters, Lady Wu and I are just as powerless."
Yun Jiao sighed softly, "In such chaotic tis, all we can do is first take care of ourselves."
Lin Shishi smiled self-mockingly, "Yes, you and I are considered lucky." Only needing to serve one man.
Yun Jiao thought about it and nodded, if Wanyan Zhang wasn’t waiting for her to treat his mother, she wouldn’t know what kind of situation she’d be in now.
