My delicate husband

The winter melon is also beginning to bloom. Blue Eucalyptus specifically reminded Brother Han to pay attention to pollination after flowering and pollinate several times, otherwise it will not bear fruit. Brother Han also made repeated assurances.

"An An, don't worry too much. Take care of yourself."

"Brother Xiaomo, it's such a pity that we don't have winter melon to eat in such hot weather."

"An An, I guess you won't be able to eat it this year. Winter melon is cold in nature, so you can't eat too much."

Lan Euan gave Zhang Xiaomo a blank look. Anyway, he could eat it secretly later. The winter melon had not yet borne fruit, so what was there to be afraid of?

Zhang Xiaomo loves Lan'an's temper. He loves Lan'an's vitality. He doesn't want Lan'an to worry too much. Lan'an is already tired enough.

Lan An has a Buddhist personality and doesn't like to worry about things. If possible, Lan An doesn't want to care about anything. But even if he doesn't care, Zhang Xiaomo still needs to take care of it.

Thinking about how Zhang Xiaomo had to deal with so many county government affairs every month, Lan An felt very regretful. He shouldn't have been so petty as to separate Brother Wu and Brother Xia. Now that they were separated, all the affairs fell on Zhang Xiaomo's shoulders.

Zhang Xiaomo is really busy now. Not only does he have to take care of the affairs of the county government, he also handles the matters of the shops in the county town privately. He will only ask Lan An when he is really undecided.

The trivial matters at home are not a big deal, as Brother Xu and Brother Han take care of them. Zhang Xiaomo only needs to look at the account book.

Zhang Xiaomo was mainly worried about Lan An's health. Lan An's health had reached a critical stage. Zhang Xiaomo was afraid to sleep soundly at night. Lan An felt very uncomfortable every day, with a heavy pain in his stomach and twitching feet, which made Zhang Xiaomo very distressed.

Lan'an hadn't lost much weight, but Zhang Xiaomo had grown thinner, with dark circles under his eyes. He hadn't gotten a full night's sleep in over two weeks. He'd been fanning Lan'an all night, giving her massages and constantly monitoring her moods.

"Brother Xiaomo, please take a nap with me."

"An An, can't you sleep?"

"I see you're working so hard, and I feel bad for you."

"Silly An An, you are not as hard-working as me."

Zhang Xiaomo took off his coat and lay down beside Lan An, coaxing him to sleep. Of course, he didn't stop fanning himself.

The day Guo Ge'er returned to the village happened to be the day when Aunt Wang's family held a house-warming party. Lin Ge'er was very happy to see Guo Ge'er.

Guo Ge'er has become very thin recently, his skin has become rough, his hands are not as delicate as before, and the clothes he wears are all old styles. It is obvious that he is not living a good life.

The weather was quite hot, and he was wearing a thick long gown, with his neck covered by the clothes. Basically, except for his face and hands, his skin was not exposed. He looked not in good spirits.

Aunt Li felt pity and anger when she saw Guo Ge'er like this.

"Brother Guo, are you being bullied?"

"No, Aunt Li, where are my brother and An'er?"

"He's taking a nap. Ang'er is in a critical period right now, you know that."

"So soon? That's right, it's almost time."

"If you have anything, tell your aunt first."

"Do you have any Bamboo Leaf Green Tea at home? I want a jar."

Aunt Li was also so angry that she laughed. It turned out that people really laugh when they are speechless. She also agreed with what Brother He said. The Dong family is full of love-sick people. She never thought that Brother Guo came back just for a jar of wine.

"Brother Guo, you came back just for a jar of wine?"

"Just because of a jar of wine, can't I come back?"

"No, I don't think there's any at home. There aren't enough for the wine shop to sell. Last time, Big Brother Xie also begged the young master for a long time before he got two jars."

"That means An Ge'er still has it."

Although Guo Ge'er said this, he still didn't hold much hope. Guo Ge'er thought of Xu Tingsong at home and trembled with fear. If he couldn't get the wine home, Xu Tingsong would definitely fight him again.

It is said that there are only zero times and countless times of domestic violence. Guo Ge'er didn't know when Xu Tingsong started to like hitting him. It was probably after he got drunk. After he sobered up, he would cry and apologize to him, and then slap him madly.

Guo Ge'er was a little numb. Xu Tingsong said that his leg was broken because Zhang Xiaomo hired someone to beat him, and he, as Zhang Xiaomo's younger brother, should bear all this and atone for Zhang Xiaomo's sins.

Xu Tingsong said that if it weren't for him, he would have gone to the border and was free now, instead of lying in bed like now. Because of Guo Ge'er, he was useless, so Guo Ge'er should be responsible.

Guo Ge'er couldn't understand why the boy who always claimed to love him forever had become so hateful to him and every word he said to him was so vicious.

Aunt Li finally took Guo Ge'er back to his room. The room remained the same as before. Lan Euan asked Brother Man to buy back the sheets and quilts that Guo Ge'er took away.

"Rest in your room for a while. I'll call you when the boss wakes up."

"Thank you, Aunt Li."

Guo Ge'er felt mixed emotions when he returned to his room again. All that was left in the room were the storybooks he used to love reading. Reading those love stories again, Guo Ge'er felt a little ironic. No wonder Zhang Xiaomo forbade him to read them.

Guo Ge'er tore up all the notebooks like a madman and burst into tears. He knew he was wrong, but it seemed there was no turning back, and he didn't plan to turn back.

Not long after Lan An woke up, Aunt Li told him that Guo Ge'er was back. Lan An was somewhat happy to hear the news, after all, he hadn't seen Guo Ge'er for a long time. However, Zhang Xiaomo's expression was a little complicated.

"Brother Guo is back. I haven't seen him for a long time."

"Brother Xiaomo, why are you pinching my hand?"

"An An, what should I do with you? You are too soft-hearted."

"Brother Xiaomo, what are you talking about? He is your biological brother. He is so young. You should be more considerate of him."

Although Lan An was a little concerned about what Guo Ge'er did, he was Zhang Xiaomo's younger brother after all. As long as it did not involve bottom line issues, Lan An would not take it to heart.

Guo Ge'er entered the inner room with red eyes. He lowered his head, not daring to look at Lan An and Zhang Xiaomo. He just remained silent. Aunt Li tactfully walked out of the room and closed the door.

"Brother Guo, have you been wronged?"

"Anger, I...I...I'm fine~ I...just...never mind, it's okay."

"Brother Guo, if you have something to say, just say it. We are a family."

Guo Ge'er looked at Lan An's eyes and saw that the worry did not seem fake. He then looked at Zhang Xiaomo's gloomy face. He suddenly felt a little jealous of Lan An. His brother was so good to Lan An and protected her very well, much better than he, his own brother.

"Anger, you brewed the Bamboo Leaf Green, right?"

"Ah."

"I want a jar."

Lan An felt a little puzzled. Why did Guo Ge'er come to him to ask for wine? He remembered that Guo Ge'er didn't drink. It went without saying that it was because of that yellow-haired guy.

Lan An glanced at Zhang Xiaomo. He knew that Zhang Xiaomo was angry, so he kissed Zhang Xiaomo's cheek. Zhang Xiaomo pinched Lan An's cheek, and finally a smile appeared on his face.

"Is it you who wants to drink?"

"No, Brother Song wants it."

"He asked him not to come in person."

"He's in bed and might become disabled in the future."

"When did it happen?"

“You should ask my brother about this. What he did in private? He clearly agreed to my marriage, so why didn’t he let Brother Song go? We did something wrong. Now we are so miserable. Are you satisfied?

Brother, am I your biological brother? Why are you making things so difficult for me? Are you not going to give me a way out? Do you want me to die?"

Guo Ge'er knew that Lan An didn't know everything, but he still got angry at him and Zhang Xiaomo. Of course, Guo Ge'er couldn't help crying. All the grievances and fears of the past few months were vented at this moment.

Lan An didn't care what Guo Ge'er said at first, but scolding Zhang Xiaomo was unacceptable. He used to feel a little sympathetic towards Guo Ge'er, but now he just felt that he deserved it.

"Brother Guo, I don't think your brother did anything wrong. I also believe Brother Xiaomo. Your brother is as bright as the moon, unparalleled in the world. How could he do such things in private? Are you worthy of Brother Xiaomo by believing Xu Tingsong's one-sided words?"

Lan An had to admit that he had a love filter for Zhang Xiaomo, but even if Zhang Xiaomo really did it, even if he took revenge on Xu Tingsong in private, Lan An would only help him bury the evidence and did not think there was anything wrong with it.

Besides, Lan An also knew the reason why Zhang Xiaomo did this. It was because of him that Zhang Xiaomo hated Xu Tingsong so much. To be honest, not only they hated Xu Tingsong, but the entire Zhang family hated Xu Tingsong.

Zhang Xiaomo did not argue. He looked aggrieved and held Lan An in his arms, resting his head on Lan An's shoulder.

"Brother Xiaomo, don't feel wronged. I believe you."

"An An, what if I really did it?"

Zhang Xiaomo asked this question with some nervousness. He was afraid that Lan An would discover his true identity and be disappointed in him.

"It's okay. I support you no matter what you do, Brother Xiaomo. You know I only care about you."

The two of them were being affectionate with each other as if no one was around. Guo Ge'er cried until his voice became hoarse, but they did not comfort him. They just pretended he did not exist. When Guo Ge'er had cried enough, he left on his own.

Lan An still asked Zhang Xiaomo to write a letter to Bai Lu, asking him to check what Guo Ge'er had experienced in the past few months. Of course, he also asked Bai Lu to send a jar of Bamboo Leaf Green to Guo Ge'er.

"An An, there's no need for you to meddle in these matters."

"Brother Xiaomo, I just want to help you vent your anger. What happens to them in the future is up to fate."

"An An, why are you so nice?"

"Brother Xiaomo, I will only treat you well."
