Traveling through the ages with the hotel, being doted on by four brothers

Chapter 267 Thoughtful and Meticulous Care

The next morning, Xia Chan set out fully armed, carrying her small wooden box. The captain had given her several letters of introduction beforehand, so she just had to add the date herself, which was very convenient.

Xia Chan came to the big tree at the entrance of the village to wait for the ox cart, because the tractor went to the town twice a month, and when Xia Chan went to the town to do business, everyone could also take the tractor, so not many people took the ox cart now, unless there happened to be an urgent matter on that day.

An aunt on the ox cart asked Xia Chan where she was going with the box. Xia Chan smiled but said nothing. She was not familiar with most people to begin with, and she could maintain her own personality better by keeping silent.

When the ox cart arrived at the entrance of the town, Xia Chan saw a military green car parked on the roadside ahead. Xia Chan got off the ox cart and stood there, waiting until the ox cart went far away before looking towards the car.

Xiao Yunfan said he would borrow a car and drive it himself, but he didn't know if he could borrow a car.

"Xiao Chan." When Xia Chan wasn't paying attention, Xiao Yunfan came over with a military green coat, and then put the military green coat on Xia Chan. Then he took out a thermos cup from his coat pocket and handed it to Xia Chan, "I bought you a cup of hot soy milk, drink it to warm your body."

Xia Chan was surprised and delighted by Xiao Yunfan's sudden appearance. The details could not be acted out. Xiao Yunfan did not wait for her to approach him, but walked towards her first. This fully demonstrated that he really cared about her.

"Thank you." Xia Chan said with a smile, "Actually, it's not that cold after the New Year, so you don't need to prepare these things for me."

"It's not that cold here, but it's colder over there." Xiao Yunfan opened the car door and invited Xia Chan to get in. Xia Chan didn't expect that the car she saw at the beginning was actually borrowed by Xiao Yunfan.

After getting in the car and sitting down, Xia Chan took off her coat, opened the thermos and took a sip of the soy milk, which was still very hot. She didn't expect that there were already thermos cups at this time. It seems that she can also order some thermos cups from the "Crossing Mall" to sell.

The price of thermos bottles is quite cheap, ranging from just over ten to twenty dollars, and the quality is quite good. After all, she used these affordable products when she was studying in the 21st century.

Take some out and trade them on the black market, so that the thermos she takes home can have a legitimate origin.

"Is it delicious?" Xiao Yunfan asked.

Xia Chan nodded, "It tastes good, sweet."

"There are steamed buns in the back." Xiao Yunfan said.

"I had breakfast and went out." Xia Chan smiled.

"It's more than 300 kilometers from here to there. It's icy and snowy now, so we can't drive too fast. We'll probably arrive in the afternoon. You can rest in the car. I'll call you when we get to a place to eat, or you can call me if you have anything." Xiao Yunfan said.

Xia Chan nodded, drank the soy milk in the cup, and put the thermos cup back together with the food that Xiao Yunfan had packed. Then Xia Chan closed his eyes and rested.

Not long after, Xia Chan felt the car stopped. She didn't fall asleep, but she didn't open her eyes either. She could feel Xiao Yunfan covering her front with his coat, leaving only her head outside.

Xiao Yunfan also stretched out his hands to press the edges and corners tightly, as if he was afraid that the wind would get in. Through her squinted eyes, she could clearly see Xiao Yunfan's hands waving in front of her. No wonder everyone said that feelings can be cultivated.

Being taken care of so attentively and meticulously, even the coldest heart can't help but be moved. Not long after the car started again, Xia Chan fell asleep completely. The road conditions in this era are not good, too bumpy, and people tend to get sleepy when they are bumpy.

She didn't know how much time had passed. When she heard Xiao Yunfan's call, Xia Chan opened her eyes dazedly. Before she fully woke up, she saw a mature, steady and handsome face smiling at her gently in front of her.

"Are we there yet?" Xia Chan's voice was a little soft, unlike her usual strong and cold voice.

"Not yet, we just arrived at the restaurant. Let's go there to eat something first and then set off again later." Xiao Yunfan said gently.

Xia Chan nodded, lifted up the coat he was wearing, opened the door and got out of the car. As soon as he got out of the car, he saw the envious eyes of the people around him. Cars were rare in that era, and in some places there was not even a single car. When people saw a car, they would naturally take a few more glances.

Xia Chan felt embarrassed being stared at by everyone, but she was wearing a hat and a scarf, leaving only her eyes exposed, so no one could recognize who she was.

The two of them came to a state-owned restaurant and ordered chicken stewed with mushrooms, stir-fried lamb with green onions, and meatballs and vermicelli soup. The staple food was big steamed buns. The staple food here is pasta, so rice is not available every day.

After drinking a bowl of hot meatball vermicelli soup, I felt warm all over.

After eating and drinking their fill, the two men asked the staff of the state-owned restaurant for a cup of hot water, then rested inside for a few minutes before getting in the car and leaving. It was around three o'clock in the afternoon when the car arrived at a street that looked a bit like a foreign-style street.

Xia Chan was a little surprised. She had never expected that there would already be a foreign-style street at this time. It was probably designed by a foreign architect in the past.

The two checked in at the guesthouse. They stayed in a single room instead of a large bunk bed. When they arrived at the door of the room, Xiao Yunfan opened the door and took Xia Chan's box in. "Rest for a while. We will go out for dinner together at 5:30. I'll be next to you. If you need anything, just knock on the wall and call me."

"Okay, you've been driving for such a long time, you must be tired, you should take a rest!" Xia Chan smiled and waved to Xiao Yunfan.

After Xiao Yunfan walked out of the room, Xia Chan locked the door and went straight into the hotel suite, filled the bathtub with water, and then took a comfortable bath. There were many people at home, so she didn't have time to take a good bath.

After taking a bath and washing his hair, he changed into soft and comfortable pajamas and put the clothes he had taken off into the washing machine. Then he slipped out of the space, replaced the blanket and quilt on the bed in the guesthouse with his own, set the alarm for one hour, and lay down to rest.

The alarm clock rang, and Xia Chan woke up slowly. He stayed in the warm bed for a few minutes before taking out all the clothes from the hotel suite and changing into them. He tidied himself up, and quickly put his stall and quilt into the space, and put away the ones in the guesthouse.

Hearing the knock on the door, Xia Chan put on his cloth bag and went to open the door.

When Xiao Yunfan saw Xia Chan, he opened his eyes wide in amazement. She had braided two pigtails today. The long pigtails hung in front of her body, almost reaching her waist. Her big eyes seemed to be full of spirit.

Xiao Yunfan picked up the scarf from Xia Chan's hand and put it on her. "The temperature is low at night, so you must wear a scarf, otherwise you will easily get frostbite."

"It's almost time for spring plowing, it shouldn't be that cold!" Xia Chan said uncertainly.

"Let's go to the restaurant for dinner, get a good night's rest, and leave early tomorrow morning."
