My delicate husband

Lan An has been embarrassed to go out recently. After all, it was really embarrassing to be coaxed and taken home by Zhang Xiaomo at Sun Baozhu's third birthday party. After all, he is not a child.

Everyone in Lianhua Village also knew that the Zhang family had a happy event. Some villagers had previously said privately that Zhang Xiaomo would have no descendants, but now they have completely shut up.

The villagers of Lianhua Village like to stare at Lan An recently, whether they have something to do or not, and their expressions are quite complicated. After all, Lan An doesn't look like a pregnant man at all, except for the little fat on his belly. The villagers also like to stare at his belly. Lan An always feels that these looks are too creepy and make people uncomfortable, so he gradually doesn't want to go out.

"An An, the sun is nice today. Shall I go out for a walk with you?"

"I don't want it. It's fine to stay at home."

"Isn't An An's favorite thing to do?"

"Brother Xiaomo, you don't know, now everyone in the village likes to stare at me, just like a vicious dog staring at a bone, it's uncomfortable and I don't like it."

"Okay, okay, okay. Can I sit with An An in the courtyard?"

"Okay, please help me build a swing in the yard so I can swing on it for fun."

"Okay, do it for An An now, and you can play with it later."

Zhang Xiaomo was also very efficient. He called on Brother Man to help him make a swing for Lan'an himself. He confirmed again and again that it could withstand more than 200 kilograms before letting Lan'an swing.

"Brother Xiaomo, push me."

"Little ancestor, don't swing too high. Let me rock you gently, okay?"

"That's fine."

Ever since the swing was built, Lan'an loves to swing in the courtyard when he has nothing to do. Brother Kong was a little envious of Lan'an seeing how happy she was having fun, so Brother Xu also made a swing for someone next to Lan'an's.

Zhang Xiaomo also repeatedly reminded everyone in the Zhang family not to let Lan An play on the swing alone. After all, he knew very well that Lan An could be naughty sometimes.

Guo Ge'er has been in a bad mood ever since he came back from Sun Baozhu's third-day baptism banquet, and his eyes are sometimes red and swollen. Every time Lan An saw him, he would smile and pretend nothing happened.

In the past few days, Guo Ge'er has lost his appetite and looks thinner. Everyone in the Zhang family feels distressed. Xue Ge'er stays with Guo Ge'er, fearing that he will do something stupid.

Aunt Li also secretly made a lot of delicious food for Guo Ge'er, but Guo Ge'er was still not in a good mood.

Lan An mentioned this to Zhang Xiaomo several times. Seeing that Lan An was so worried about Guo Ge'er, Zhang Xiaomo directly called him into the inner room to talk.

"Brother, what do you want from me?"

"You know An An can't be worried. You've been so abnormal in front of him recently. Tell me, what's going on?"

"Brother, I'm sorry, but I don't want to tell you."

"I know it even if you don't tell me, because of Xu Tingsong."

When Guo Ge'er saw Zhang Xiaomo so serious, and thought of the unpleasant parting between him and Xu Tingsong a few days ago, his eyes became red and tears fell unconsciously.

He has been having all sorts of random thoughts these days. Although Xue Ge'er has been persuading him to let go, and he knows that Guo Ge'er is right, he really doesn't want to. Why can everyone around him be happy, but he can't pursue the love he loves?

Guo Ge'er was also a little confused. He didn't know why he decided on Xu Tingsong. Maybe it was because Xu Tingsong gave him the love he wanted, or maybe he envied Xu Tingsong's freedom and unrestrainedness.

Guo Ge'er cried for a while, but Zhang Xiaomo did not comfort him, so the two brothers just remained silent.

Guo Ge'er had been crying for a long time and was a little tired. He looked up nervously and mustered up the courage to look Zhang Xiaomo in the eye.

Zhang Xiaomo's eyes were calm. The eyes that always looked at Lan An with infinite tenderness were now calm. Guo Ge'er didn't know where he got the courage from, but he had a rebellious heart.

"Brother, can't I pursue happiness?"

"Zhang Xiaoguo, I don't have that much time. An An will wake up soon. Think about it and then tell me."

Zhang Xiaomo could also understand that this younger brother was protected too well. To put it nicely, he was naive, but to put it bluntly, he was stupid.

At this age, I'm naive and yearning for love, and I've been poisoned by some storybooks. Otherwise, I wouldn't have fallen for someone like Xin Tingsong. (Xu Tingsong is really a yellow-haired scoundrel.)

"Brother, can't I really pursue happiness? Didn't you say you would give me freedom? Why did you stop me from being with him?"

"Brother Guo, you're only thirteen. Do you know what love is? Besides, I've never tried to stop you. I just hope you consider the consequences before making any decision, instead of just being angry with me or trying to prove something."

"Brother, I know. Xu Tingsong is going to the border and we're going to separate. He wants me to go with him. I don't know how to decide, but I don't want to be separated from him."

"Zhang Xiaomo, you're only thirteen. Is it that easy to go to the border? The journey is long and there's a risk of unrest. Can he protect you? I don't object to you going out and exploring the world, but I'm not asking you to die."

"Brother, this is the first time I've noticed you're so harsh. Xu Songting goes there every year, so how could his life be in danger?"

"I'm only saying this because I hope you can think it over carefully. Ask him if he can guarantee that it will be safe every time. Guo Ge'er, if he truly loves you, he wouldn't want you to suffer this hardship."

"Brother, I really like him. Can you please stop hating him so much? You are too prejudiced against him."

"If he hadn't done those things, I wouldn't hate him so much.

Brother Guo, I don’t think I owe you anything, and I never restrict you from doing anything, because I know you are a good child and you won’t do anything to disappoint me.

I have no objection to you liking him. Feelings cannot be forced. I have enough ability to ensure that you have food and clothing. I hope you can get what you want.

I always say that you choose your own path in life, and even if I am your brother, I have no right to interfere.

But Zhang Xiaoguo, you are not yet an adult, and there are some things I have to take care of you. This is my responsibility as your brother.

Have you forgotten how your parents died? If you're sure you want to go to the border with him, think carefully about the pros and cons. If you really want to go, I won't stop you."

"Brother, if it was An Ge'er, would you still be so indifferent?"

"You should know that An An is my life. Besides, An An knows how to do things in moderation. She wouldn't do what you want to do."

"Brother, you are too biased. I hate you."

"Zhang Xiaoguo, I never said I was fair. Anyway, I have said everything I need to say. You can figure out the rest yourself."

Guo Ge'er looked at Zhang Xiaomo. He didn't understand why they were brothers but not as good as an outsider. Guo Ge'er ran into the room angrily, closed the door, and didn't even eat dinner.

Guo Ge'er began to think carefully about what happened between him and Xu Tingsong. He also began to think about his future path. He swore that he would make Zhang Xiaomo regret it.

Guo Ge'er thought about it and realized that he really liked his current life and doing business, but he also really didn't want to be separated from Xu Tingsong.

But is it really okay to stay in Yunling County forever? Zhang Xiaomo won't support him forever, and he will have to rely on himself in the future. He also wants to see more of the outside world while he is young. He doesn't want to live a life that he can't predict.
