At noon, Lin Jiaojiao went to Du Mingrui's room to eat some dry food, chatted for a while, and then went back to the room.

She didn't tell her that there was another person in the room, mainly because she didn't know how to start the conversation. Even if she told her, it would certainly not stop her curiosity. So she decided to wait until she got to the shore and bought a veil.

After closing the door and turning around, I saw Fu Qi sitting awkwardly on the edge of the bed with her legs crossed, looking as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.

"Sister Jiaojiao...I think..."

She knew from the look on his face that he wanted to go to the bathroom, but she couldn't risk taking him there during the day.

"You wait a moment."

After saying that, she squatted down, took out the key, and opened the cabinet under the bed, pretending to be looking for something, but in fact she exchanged a night pot from the mall.

"Use this first."

Fu Qi looked at what she handed him, and his face suddenly turned red like a cooked shrimp. He lowered his head and slowly reached out to take it, whispering: "Thank you Jiaojiao..."

Seeing him like this, she scratched her head a little embarrassedly and said awkwardly: "Then I'll go out first, knock on the door when you're ready."

After saying that, she opened the door and went out, leaning against the wooden wall next to her and waiting. Suddenly, the door of the room next to her opened and the woman who was about to go out was startled to see a figure standing in the dim corridor.

"What are you doing here, sister?"

"It's okay. I was a little stuffy in the house so I came out to get some fresh air."

"Go up there and get some fresh air. It's scary standing here motionless."

"Hehehe..."

Lin Jiaojiao had no choice but to smile awkwardly. The woman suddenly felt even more creepy by her smile, so she walked straight upstairs without staying any longer. As she walked, she thought that it had only been a short time and someone had already gotten sick from holding it in. She had to go upstairs quickly to bask in the sun to get rid of the bad luck.

After waiting for a while, there was a knock on the door and she opened it but didn't go in. "Just pass it to me, I'll go pour it."

"it is good…"

"Have you wiped your hands with a wet towel? If you have, give it to me. I'll take it out and find some water to wash it."

"it is good…"

She picked up the chamber pot, placed the handkerchief on the lid, and walked towards the toilet upstairs. When she arrived at the door, there was no one inside.

She stood outside the door and placed the chamber pot in the corner to prevent it from falling into the sea. Then she went in carefully and closed the door.

He took out the dirty water used to wipe sweat last night from the backpack and placed it on the wooden board. He picked up the chamber pot, opened the lid and poured it into the hole. Then he poured dirty water into the chamber pot and cleaned it three times.

When the basin was empty, she exchanged some water from the mall. When the basin was full, she picked up the towel and started to wash it. After washing, she put it on the lid of the chamber pot and went to the toilet. After washing her hands, she put the basin and the remaining water into her backpack.

When everything was ready, she opened the door and found a woman standing there, looking at her with admiration. What a great woman!

She had no choice but to pretend to be calm, took out the chamber pot and walked into the house.

Back in the house, Fu Qi stood up uneasily when she saw her coming back, "Sister Jiaojiao... I'm really sorry to bother you..."

She waved her hand calmly, "Nothing, just minor issues."

I put the chamber pot into the cabinet and told him to just take it when he needed it. After unlocking the cabinet, I took the quilt at the end of the bed and spread it on the floor. Fu Qi quickly sat down and raised his legs.

"Sister Jiaojiao, don't you sleep in the bed?"

"Ah? If I sleep on the bed, you can only sleep on the floor. If Fu Ling finds out, he will beat me to death. So I'll just sleep on the floor."

"I...we...can sleep together..."

His voice became softer and softer as he spoke, but the room was so small that she could still hear it clearly. She raised her head and stared at Fu Qi, who was sitting there with his head down and playing with his fingers.

Is this really Fu Ling’s younger brother?

She remembered that the man following Fu Ling was a dignified and elegant man wearing a veil, but why was he not so reserved when it came to her?

"It's too crowded for two people to sleep together. It's okay. It will be the same if I sleep on the bottom. Go to sleep."

"Oh fine…"

After he took off his shoes, he didn't put his feet on the bed. Seeing that he looked troubled, Lin Jiaojiao asked, "What's wrong?"

He pinched his trouser legs and said shyly, "I didn't wash my feet..."

"..."

Boo.

As expected, he was the young master of a wealthy family, so particular. She had no choice but to resign herself to picking up the handkerchief she had cleaned before and starting to wipe his feet.

"There is no extra water on the boat to wash these things every day, so we can only wipe them with a wet towel, but I promise that we can wipe our bodies once every two days. We can only wash our hair after we get ashore and find an inn. This is how life is on the boat, Fu Qi, just bear with it."

Fu Qi felt very ashamed as he listened to her wiping his feet and speaking earnestly.

"I'm sorry, Xiaoqiu knows."

"No need to say sorry, just wipe yourself and lie down."

"Thank you, Sister Jiaojiao." After he said that, he put his legs on the bed and knelt down looking at her.

She put the handkerchief away, and seeing that nothing was wrong, she lay down directly, "Fu Qi, take a nap, I'll go to sleep first."

"it is good."

...

Five days later.

"Knock knock, is Lin Jiao awake? We'll be arriving at Port Harbor soon, let's go ashore and have breakfast."

Lin Jiaojiao rubbed her eyes and felt helpless as she looked at the person in her arms who was sleeping soundly with her in his arms.

There was a sudden thunderstorm last night, and the front of the boat was shaking violently, which scared him so much that he got out of bed and insisted on squeezing in with her, but she didn't say anything, after all, she was also a little scared...

"Okay Sister Du, I just woke up, please wait a moment."

"Okay, I'll go meet them on the deck first, you come up quickly."

"Row."

At this time Fu Qi was also woken up, and buried her head in her chest shyly. Sometimes she seriously suspected that he was taking advantage of her.

"Fu Qi is awake, get up quickly, we'll be at the port soon."

"it is good…"

She sat up only when Fu Qi returned to the bed and sat on it. Except for some body aches from sleeping on the floor on the first day and the second day, she was fine afterwards. Her body was really strong.

After getting up and putting on her coat, she simply tied her hair up, then went to help Fu Qi comb her hair and simply tied it behind her with a piece of cloth. These few days of getting along really made her realize what a lady from a noble family is.

He really didn't know anything about life and was even more stupid than her, but she could understand him after all, he had servants serving him since he was a child.

What else could she do? She could only serve patiently and uncomplainingly.

"Okay, change your clothes and wait for me."

"Oh, I see."

She also took her things, opened the door, locked it, and walked out onto the deck.

Quite a few people had gathered on the deck, and they all cheered as they watched the approaching Port.

"Finally I can go ashore and have a good meal."

"Yeah, my mouth is bubbling with bitterness."

"I stink, I need to wash myself thoroughly..."

She also bent down and smelled it. It still had a sour smell. Although she wiped her body, she only had these few pieces of clothes.

"Lin Jiao, come here quickly."

Hearing Du Mingrui waving and calling her, she quickly walked over.

"The captain just said that we will only stop here for half a day and set off at noon without waiting for anyone. We just made a plan. Let's find an inn to wash up and then go to the noodle shop that Sister Wen mentioned to have breakfast. Then we will go to replenish food. It's almost time to come back."

"Sorry Sister Du, I may not go with you."
