My delicate husband

It was not until the eighth day of the first lunar month that the heavy snow that had lasted for more than a month finally stopped. The long-lost sun felt warm on my body, but my body temperature felt even lower.

Aunt Li has not been around recently as she is taking care of Zhang Xiaohua during her confinement, so the task of cooking has been given to Brother Xu and his wife.

Zhang Xiaomo has been very nervous recently and has remembered Doctor Zhu's instructions thoroughly. Seeing that Zhang Xiaomo was very tense, Brother He felt that Zhang Xiaomo was a little too anxious, but when he thought about how he had just witnessed Zhang Xiaohua giving birth, he could understand it.

Zhang Xiaomo recently checked all the account books and finally found that the losses were not as serious as before, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

Lan'an remembered that it was time to open the store. Time flies so fast and the New Year is almost over.

Lan An gathered everyone in the Zhang family together and gave them a brief explanation.

"Brother He, the store will open tomorrow. Brother Xiaomo and I won't go to the county town. You and Bai Lu will check all the stores and make sure there are no omissions before opening them normally."

"Brother Guo, you and Brother Xue should pay attention. The jewelry shop must launch a new product every month. Once the drawings are finalized, please show them to me. Similarly, you should keep an eye on the rouge shop. If you have time, go stroll around the streets and pay attention to the outfits of the guys and girls in the county town."

"Brother Xu, please help me deliver 30 dan of rice, 20 dan of wheat to the rice shop, and 30 dan of potatoes. The potatoes are priced at 6 wen per pound. Other than that, you can prepare for the wedding."

"Brother Man and Brother Han, please help Brother Xu deliver the food. You can also help with their wedding."

After Lan An gave the instructions, he let everyone go about their own business. He had been feeling unwell recently, feeling a little sleepy and dizzy. He couldn't sleep well without Zhang Xiaomo, and basically just slept in Zhang Xiaomo's arms.

"An An, don't worry too much."

"Brother Xiaomo, don't worry, I will make a lot of money to support you."

"I know, my An An is the best."

Today, Brother Xia sent a letter, which was mainly about the dividends from the shop in the capital, and also briefly asked about Lan Euan's health. The letter was very brief, and was mainly about delivering the silver bills.

Lan An asked Zhang Xiaomo to reply to the letter, talking about the business situation of the shop and briefly mentioning Brother Wu, but replacing him with another owner. At the same time, he also sent the new models of the rouge shop and the jewelry shop to Brother Xia, asking him to take care of it.

"Brother Xiaomo, we can ask Brother Xia to open more shops in the capital."

"An An, why do you have this idea?"

"I think it's great that Brother Xia is an imperial merchant. Actually, it's mainly because I think it's too easy to make money from aristocratic families. I'm robbing the rich to help the poor."

"An An, it seems I need to teach you how to read and write. Is this how robbing the rich to help the poor works?"

Zhang Xiaomo pinched Lan'an's cheeks and tickled the soft flesh on Lan'an's waist. After Lan'an had sex with her, she became very sensitive and ticklish. After a while, she started to act coquettishly and surrender.

Zhang Xiaomo stopped teasing Lan An and helped him tidy up his clothes. He patiently asked Lan An about his plans, and Lan An briefly expressed his opinion.

The two of them played around for a while, and Lan An felt a little sleepy. Zhang Xiaomo held him in his arms and coaxed him softly. After the man fell asleep, he picked up his pen and wrote a letter to Brother Wu. He still told him about Brother Xia's recent situation in a humane way. He believed that Brother Wu could understand what he meant and would know what to do.

Guo Ge'er has been going to the Sun family to see the baby every day recently. At the beginning, he did dislike that Sun Baozhu was a little ugly, with red and wrinkled skin, but after all, she was given birth by his second sister with great effort, so she was still quite rare.

But after a few days, Sun Baozhu's skin slowly grew back, and her skin became white and tender. She lay on the bed without crying or making a fuss, and even had her finger in her mouth. Guo Ge'er thought it was magical, how could she be so cute.

The baby looks very much like Zhang Xiaohua, and her eyebrows and eyes are somewhat like Zhang Xiaomo. She is not ugly at all and will definitely be a cool beauty in the future.

"Aunt Li, do newborn babies change so quickly?"

"Yeah, it's basically different every day."

"Then why was it so ugly and now so cute."

"That's because he stayed in his mother's belly for too long, and his skin was too tender to adapt to the amniotic fluid. He'll be fine after a few days."

Guo Ge'er nodded as if he understood. Aunt Li was relieved to see that Guo Ge'er didn't ask any more questions. What she had just said was all made up by her.

Brother Xu finally agreed with Brother Xie to postpone the wedding for half a month. They originally planned to get married on the Lantern Festival, which happened to be Brother Zhu's birthday. Brother Xie was also very satisfied, but now it was obviously too late.

Brother Xie had no objection. It was quite cold these days because the snow had melted, and the eaves and roads were wet, making it easy to slip when traveling. After careful consideration, he agreed to postpone it for half a month.

Brother Xie was still a little sad when he learned that Brother Xia would not come back. He really regarded Brother Xia as a brother, but Brother Xia still sent gifts. He prepared two paintings, two high-quality jade hairpins, and two jars of secret medicine.

Brother Xie and Brother Xu blushed when they saw the secret medicine. Lan An was also very curious, but was stopped by Zhang Xiaomo.

After seeing Brother Xia's gift, Lan An was a little confused. She didn't know what gift to give to Brother Xu. Although she asked the jewelry shop to order a three-piece set for Brother Kong and the sheets and quilts were also prepared, these were all betrothal gifts for Brother Kong.

After struggling for a long time, Lan An suddenly thought that he was sure that Brother Xu would like this gift very much.

"Brother Xiaomo, Brother Xu is getting married at the end of the month."

"An An, I understand."

"I have something I want to discuss with you."

"An An, I understand what you mean."

Brother Xu has always been a slave. It was inconvenient for him to go to the county government to change his place of origin, which was very troublesome. So Lan An directly registered Brother Xu's household registration in Lianhua Village so that he could be with them.

Now that Big Brother Xu was getting married, his household registration had to be changed. Without Lan An's advice, Zhang Xiaomo took the indenture and slavery documents from the small box and went to the village chief to separate Big Brother Xu's household registration and transfer Big Brother Kong's household registration to Big Brother Xu's name.

All the materials and documents have been prepared. I wrote a letter to Brother Wu, asking him to change Brother Xu's citizenship to a good citizen. It will be done in about a week. I will give it to Brother Xu as a wedding gift. He will definitely like it.

"Then what should we give them, Brother Xie?"

"An An, don't worry, I'll make the arrangements."

"Brother Xiaomo, do you have any idea?"

"Yes, give him some fine wine and a set of exquisite china."

"Wow, Brother Xiaomo is really amazing."

"I'll make them a big cake."

"An An, didn't you say that the cake would only be made for me?"

"Brother Xiaomo, of course a wedding needs a cake, but as long as it's food I make it, Brother Xiaomo will always take the first bite."

"An An, I don't want you to work too hard."

"Brother Xiaomo, it's okay. Let's go see Zhang Xiaohua in a few days."

"An An, don't force it."

"It's okay, I don't hate her that much anymore."

The long-lost sun has arrived, and the villagers of Lianhua Village have all come out to visit each other. The children can't wait to go out and play on the village roads because they have been locked up at home for too long.

The children have gained more or less weight during this Chinese New Year. They are all wearing new clothes and look quite festive. It is the first time that Lan An realizes that there are so many children in Lianhua Village.

The villagers of Lianhua Village are generally doing well. No villagers died and no houses were damaged. They just didn't have enough food and firewood. They could barely make ends meet by living frugally. Now that the snow has stopped, they can go to the county town to buy supplies. The most difficult time is finally over.

The other villages were also doing well. Everyone was very grateful to County Magistrate Wu. For the first time, they had hope in the court and looked forward to the future. The cold winter was over, and spring would surely come.
