Chapter 103 Experiencing the Feeling of Being Cared For
The wind was too strong; the bricks couldn't hold down the plastic sheet at all, and several bricks that were used to hold it down were blown away.
Upon seeing this, Fu Huaiyi rushed out and grabbed her hand.
"Put it down and go inside. I'll do it."
Lin Yuyao was half-squatting and busy, and when she turned around and stood up, she bumped into his wet chest.
Feeling that strong heartbeat, she felt her breathing slow down.
He hurriedly put down the brick in his hand and retreated into the house.
It was still those same few bricks, and I don't know how he did it, but he managed to hold the plastic sheet down steadily.
The wind was strong, but it could no longer blow.
After helping her with the small kitchen, Fu Huaiyi was soaked in sweat.
He went back inside and intended to close the broken door, only to find that the latch had fallen off.
Lin Yuyao noticed it too. She was shivering with cold. She looked at the table and said, "Let's use the table to block the door for tonight. I'll buy a good lock tomorrow."
"Ah."
I was supposed to help him carry it, but he just moved the solid wood table over there himself.
What a strong force.
The table is quite heavy; it can firmly block the door.
"Achoo." Lin Yuyao sneezed again.
Seeing that he was soaked to the bone, she said, "I'm so sorry, you got caught in the rain too. You should go back and change your clothes."
Fu Huaiyi noticed that she was also soaked, her thin clothes clinging to her body, and the outline of her undergarments was clearly visible.
This seems to be the one he helped collect last time?
Fu Huaiyi's cheeks flushed. Remembering that she also needed to change her clothes, he nodded and left.
As soon as he left, Lin Yuyao closed the door and took out her newly bought clothes to change into.
My body temperature didn't recover quickly; I was still quite cold.
With her hair still wet, Lin Yuyao took a clean towel and dried it.
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
It seems that Fu Huaiyi has changed his clothes and returned.
Lin Yuyao went to open the door and couldn't help but sneeze several times in a row.
Fu Huaiyi held the medicine in his hand and said, "I've noticed you've been sneezing a lot. Take some medicine as a precaution."
She was holding the cold medicine she had bought that day.
"I have."
She took it out of her bag. "I just bought it this morning."
Fu Huaiyi frowned slightly. "Are you sick?"
Uh……
"I wasn't feeling well this morning, so I bought these medicines."
"Sit down, I'll make you some medicine."
Lin Yuyao put down the towel in her hand. "I can do it myself."
Fu Huaiyi insisted on pressing her into the chair while he went to find a cup and kettle to make her cold medicine.
The kettle was newly bought here, and the drinking cup was an enamel cup that was almost completely chipped off, which she brought from home.
Especially the blue rim, which should have been blue, is covered in rust and the blue enamel is almost invisible.
He suspected it could cut his mouth.
How come this delicate young girl lives a rougher life than a man like him?
Sitting in the chair, Lin Yuyao looked embarrassed as he stared at her enamel mug.
It's just as embarrassing as when you were a kid and someone saw your toes because you wore shoes with holes in them.
Actually, their family was very poor before they separated. Their shoes were worn out, their clothes were worn out and patched again and again, and they were all made from adult clothes.
The first time she wore new clothes without patches was the second year after her family split up.
Looking back, her biggest wish was that her clothes could be torn anywhere, but not in the crotch.
Her childhood experience of poverty made her very frugal.
Fu Huaiyi prepared the medicine and brought it to her.
Lin Yuyao took the enamel mug and said, "This is really fragile; the enamel will fall off if you drop it."
"That's how enamel mugs are; from now on, you should use stainless steel ones."
"Hmm, I'll buy a stainless steel one another day."
While she was taking her medicine, she saw Fu Huaiyi turn around and go to sew her quilt.
Lin Yuyao then realized that he had sewed half of the quilt in.
This……
"Brother Fu, please put it down, I can do it myself."
"It's alright, you can sit down, it'll be ready soon."
"You don't know how to do these things. You should put them down."
"It's very simple, I know how, you'll see."
Lin Yuyao: “…”
Although the stitching wasn't very good, it was indeed sewn on.
After tying the knot, he looked around but couldn't find any scissors, so he simply tore off the end of the thread.
what?
Can you really tear this by hand? The thread used to sew the quilt is quite thick.
"Brother Fu, the scissors are in the drawer."
"It's okay, it's sewn up. How does it look? It's my first time sewing, but it's not bad, right?"
That's really great.
"That's great, thank you."
Fu Huaiyi looked at her, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
Lin Yuyao said, "Brother Fu, just say what you have to say."
He actually wanted to tell her not to be so polite.
She was always so polite, making him feel like she had a hard shell around her, making her impossible to approach.
After thinking about it, I decided against it; these things can't be rushed.
"You should get some rest. I'll be downstairs. If you need anything, just come down and find me." He added right after saying that, "Let me boil some water for you before I go down. I noticed the water in the kettle isn't hot anymore."
Lin Yuyao remembered that the water had been boiled that morning.
"I can do it myself. It's getting late, you should go back and rest."
Lin Yuyao stood up and tried to take the work from his hands.
Fu Huaiyi pushed her hand away, pressed her down on the newly made bed, and squatted down to be at eye level with her.
He couldn't help but say what he hadn't wanted to say. He felt that if he didn't be braver, he didn't know how long it would take for his relationship with her to take another step forward.
"Yaoyao, you don't have to do everything yourself. You're not a superhero. When you're sick, you don't have to persevere on your own. Try to rely on others."
"I don't want to give it to anyone..."
"Don't you want to cause trouble for others?" Fu Huaiyi interrupted before she could finish speaking.
Lin Yuyao lowered her head and nodded gently.
Fu Huaiyi took a deep breath and said, "You are not a problem for me, nothing about you is a problem for me, and I am willing to let you rely on me."
Lin Yuyao's eyes suddenly became a little moist.
Perhaps it's because she hasn't felt cared for in a very long time.
In her past life, when she was sick, she asked Lu Jiangting to send more money back. What did he say?
He said that people in the countryside are not so fussy. They can just endure a minor illness and it will get better. Why would they take medicine as soon as they get sick?
He said his mother never takes medicine when she's sick, and even though she's gone blind, she hasn't mentioned going to the hospital. He asked her to be more understanding, as he's under a lot of pressure.
He probably already disliked her back then.
She had a fever for several days without taking any medicine, but unexpectedly she actually got better.
As for why she shoulders everything herself, is it because she's willing to, or enjoys, taking on all the burdens?
It's because during those years, she had no one to rely on but herself.
The more I thought about it, the more heartbroken I became, and tears welled up in my eyes.
Fu Huaiyi was extremely flustered by this.
"Did I say something wrong? Yao Yao, don't cry."
Lin Yuyao shook her head, wiped away her tears, and said, "No, I just remembered a terrible dream."
