My delicate husband
Chapter 116: Cold Wave Coming
These days, the food left in the family warehouse is getting less and less, and Lan'an has taken out more and more food from the space. Unknowingly, Lan'an has taken out more than 1000 dan of rice from the space, and there is not much left in the space. Lan'an stopped taking rice to the family granary, and Zhang Xiaomo didn't say anything.
As December began, the weather became colder day by day. Lan'an began to worry about his peppers and potatoes, fearing that they would freeze to death. Although the problem should not be serious, Lan'an was still worried, which was rare.
Brother Xia sent another letter. As expected, the store in the capital was very popular every day and became a must-go place for the young men and women of wealthy families. Brother Xia asked Lan An whether he could open a branch, but Lan An refused.
Seeing the thick stack of silver notes sent by Brother Xia, Lan An was not very happy. He just handed the ones belonging to Brother Wu to Zhang Xiaomo and asked him to give them to him. Lan An sometimes felt that so much silver was of little use. After all, there were too few materials in this era and the supply was insufficient to meet the demand. Silver would become less and less valuable.
Brother Xia will not be back until the Chinese New Year, and Lan An hasn't seen him for a long time. Lan An also told Zhang Xiaomo the news that he would be back, and Zhang Xiaomo immediately picked up his pen and wrote a letter to Brother Wu.
The peppers and potatoes will be ready for picking in a week, so Lan'an goes to the fields more and more frequently. Zhang Xiaomo also finds that he can't buy what he wants even with the money, and he starts to worry. Lan'an doesn't bother him, but just asks him to go to the fields with Brother Xu and the others every day. Lan'an recently directs spiritual spring water into the irrigation channel every day, and asks everyone to cover the roots of the peppers with straw every night so that they can resist the frost better.
Lan An had never thought of this method. It was proposed by Brother Xu. Lan An thought it made sense and decided to give it a try. Unexpectedly, the effect was quite good.
The winter wheat is growing well, and from a distance it looks like a field of grass, but I don't know if it can withstand the snow. According to past practice, we estimate that there will be snow for half a month.
The old people in the village were very happy to see the green fields. This was a new hope. They had suffered a lifetime and could see the end of their days as soon as they opened their eyes. They hoped that their children and grandchildren could live a better life and not suffer as much as they did.
Lan An has not stayed at home recently. Although he is afraid of the cold and used to like to stay in his room when he had nothing to do, he now likes to stay at Aunt Wang's house more. He also found that needlework is not that difficult.
The hot pot restaurant in the county town was really busy. Even the shopkeeper Fang went to help out and a new group of people were trained. Guo Ge'er, Xue Ge'er and He Da Ge, who had been busy for nearly a month, also returned home.
When Brother He returned home, he keenly discovered that there was a relationship problem between the Dong family. Lan An was very happy to see the two of them come back. In fact, Brother He was the only one in the family who discovered the problem. Brother Xu had been busy talking about love with Brother Kong recently, and he couldn't answer the questions Brother He asked him.
Brother He asked other people in the family, and except for Brother Man who told him something, no one else knew.
Guo Ge'er was not idle when he returned home. He was learning how to make clothes from Aunt Wang recently. He wanted to make a cotton-padded jacket for Xu Tingsong. He was surprised to see Lan An learning needlework. Lan An just liked the warm atmosphere of being with Aunt Wang.
"Ang'er, do you want to make clothes with your brother too?"
"No, I'm just killing time."
"How can you be bored? Isn't your brother with you every day?"
Lan An didn't say anything, and Guo Ge'er didn't ask any more questions. Seeing the passion in Zhang Xiaomo's eyes reminded Lan An of the Chinese people who loved to give hand-knitted scarves to their lovers. He had tried it before, but he didn't learn it, and he didn't have anyone he wanted to give it to, so he gave up.
After Brother He came back, Lan An handed over some of the household chores to him. Except for eating, sleeping and going to the fields, Lan An rarely stayed at home. He was always at Aunt Wang's house. Aunt Wang also lit a charcoal fire for fear that Lan An would be cold.
Aunt Li asked Lan An what he ate every day, and Lan An answered perfunctorily. However, his appetite had not been very good recently. He felt uncomfortable when he smelled anything particularly greasy and had vomited several times, but that was when Zhang Xiaomo was not around. Lan An strictly forbade anyone to mention it in front of him.
My family members were also a little worried, and Lan An also guessed that maybe it was true. I had been looking forward to it before, but now I feel it’s okay.
Zhang Xiaomo finished embroidering the first purse, which looked pretty good. Lan An gave it to Brother He. Brother He broke out in a cold sweat when he received it, and could only be thankful that the boss was not at home.
"Brother hasn't been home recently?"
"He's busy with something."
Guo Ge'er always felt that Lan An was unhappy. He planned to discuss it with Brother He. He felt it necessary to talk to Zhang Xiaomo.
Lan Euan saw what Guo Ge'er was thinking at a glance, touched his head, and followed Guo Ge'er to his room.
"Brother Guo, I know you trust your brother and me. There's nothing wrong between us."
"Anger, I think you're unhappy. I still like the old you better."
"Brother Guo, everyone has to grow up. Besides being my husband and your elder brother, your brother has many other identities. He won't always be by our side."
"Anger, something must have happened, and that's not what you said."
"Brother Guo, do you think your brother would commit adultery?"
"Anger, you're crazy. My brother is definitely not that kind of person."
"I saw someone else's lip balm on his collar, and his clothes also smelled like someone else. I still have that piece of clothing."
Guo Ge'er didn't believe it. Lan An took out the clothes. Guo Ge'er couldn't say anything to refute them. He knew that Lan An never used these things, and his brother was not at home often recently.
"Anger, whatever you want to do, I support you."
"I have not decided yet."
"How about I ask my brother for you?"
"no thanks."
Lan Euan just touched Guoge'er's head
"Brother Guo, I hope you'll be more careful about who you choose to be with in the future. I don't really like that yellow-haired guy."
Guo Ge'er no longer had the heart to refute Lan An. He just felt very distressed and didn't believe that his brother would do such a stupid thing.
Lan Euan got up and left Guoge'er's room. He was a little sleepy, so he went back to the inner room to sleep.
Guo Ge'er still listened to Lan An's idea and did not question Zhang Xiaomo. He just followed him out secretly the next day. It happened that Zhang Xiaomo went to Jinshui Village. Guo Ge'er saw that there was really a boy around Zhang Xiaomo. Guo Ge'er couldn't believe his eyes. His brother asked the boy to kiss him.
Guo Ge'er really wanted to slap his brother and that guy in anger. He really didn't expect his brother to be such a person. Guo Ge'er left disappointed.
Zhang Xiaomo also pushed Zhi Ge'er away and clearly expressed his disgust towards him. Of course, he didn't get close to Zhang Xiaomo. It was just a matter of angle that Guo Ge'er saw it.
Guo Ge'er returned home with red eyes. He was very happy to see Lan An at Aunt Wang's house. He couldn't express what he had just seen.
When Brother He saw that Guo Ge'er was also crying, he quickly called him aside. Guo Ge'er told Brother He what he had just seen. Brother He felt like the sky was falling. This was not something that a lovesick boss would do.
Guo Ge'er also told Brother He what Lan'an had told him. Brother He also understood why he had always felt that something was strange between the two bosses for so many days, but the young boss had disguised himself too well. According to his previous personality, Brother He simply couldn't bear to think about it.
Zhang Xiaomo was very unhappy when he returned home. When he entered the inner room and didn't see Lan An, he prepared to go to Aunt Wang's house to pick him up. He didn't understand why Guo Ge'er was crazy, and glared at him several times for no reason.
Lan An smelled the unpleasant smell on Zhang Xiaomo again today and couldn't help but vomit, which scared everyone. Zhang Xiaomo was also anxious and was about to help Lan An. Lan An refused for the first time and looked at Zhang Xiaomo with a cold look.
"Brother Xiaomo, I'm fine. I just feel a little uncomfortable with the smell of you."
Zhang Xiaomo's heart darkened in an instant, and he thought of that damn guy again.
The dinner was very dull. Lan An had no appetite and ate a few bites before going to wash up. Zhang Xiaomo also had a cold face throughout the whole process. After the simple meal, Zhang Xiaomo gathered everyone together to discuss matters. He repeatedly asked Lan An about his recent situation. Everyone also spoke tacitly. Guo Geer just spoke coldly.
"Brother, I hate you now."
Zhang Xiaomo didn't say anything and returned to the room. Lan An was asleep, but not very soundly. He then realized that Lan An had lost a lot of weight. Fortunately, he was almost done with his work and could spend more time with Lan An.
