My delicate husband

It has been a week since the construction of the house officially started. The foundation has been prepared and the walls have begun to be built.

Zhu the mason was in charge of the main house, while Brother Xie was in charge of the side yard. One of them was on the east side, the other on the west, so they never met. Even when their eyes met, it was clear they didn't want to communicate.

Lan An has also gotten used to running back and forth between the two places. Every day when Zhang Xiaomo wakes up, he will also wake up. Lan An asks him to continue sleeping, but he won't listen. He insists on being kissed and hugged by Lan An for a while before he is willing to let Lan An go.

When he returned to the county town at night, Guo Ge'er would definitely be waiting for him at the gate of the yard, and occasionally Xiao Hui would be there to accompany him.

Every time, Guo Ge'er would secretly complain about Zhang Xiaomo to Lan An, saying that he didn't eat seriously or didn't sleep well, but what he said most was that his face was too cold and it was very stressful to be with him.

Lan An felt that Guo Ge'er was exaggerating too much. Every time he came back, Zhang Xiaomo was smiling and sticking to him. His soft and cute look made Lan An's heart melt. God knows how attractive it is to see a cold person act coquettishly.

Today, Lan'an rode Brother Xie's ox cart back to the village as usual. The village roads were very busy. The villagers were holding farm tools and preparing to go to the fields to work. The children in the resettlement houses were all participating.

"Anger, is there something big going on in the village?"

"No, Brother Xie, the seedlings should be ready for transplanting."

"Don't you have any land?"

"My house has already been prepared."

The group came to the courtyard, and sure enough, only Brother Xu was there.

"Have you eaten, Brother Xu?"

"I've eaten, An'er. I forgot to tell you that Zhu the mason and his crew have asked for leave, so they let us do the work first. He said that Brother Xie's bricklaying skills are better than his, so he let him do it first, and he is confident in handing it over to him."

"Okay. Let's get started then."

"Okay, I'll help you get it done without him asking."

"Okay. Let's get started."

Lan An didn't worry too much, mainly because he couldn't help much. The bricks were really heavy, and Lan An couldn't move them alone. With Brother Xu watching over them, Lan An felt relieved.

Lan Euan finally found an opportunity to go to the back mountain. This time he learned from his last lesson and brought an extra set of clothes.

Lan Euan sprinkled medicinal powder all over his body and walked slowly into the depths of the mountain. His target was very clear, the tiger. If he couldn't find a tiger, he would look for a wild boar.

Lan'an was lucky enough to find a relatively large water source. He was also lucky enough that no large wild animals came here to drink water. Lan'an was not in a hurry. He took out the sleeping pills he had exchanged before and changed some more. He took out the cabbage sprinkled with spiritual spring water, added twice the amount of sleeping pills, and threw it casually next to the pond.

He took out a large piece of pork that he had prepared from the space, sprinkled some spiritual spring water on it, and added a large amount of multiple doses of sleeping pills. Now he just had to wait and see.

Lan'an sprinkled insect and snake repellent powder around, then hid in the space. After an hour, there was no sound. Lan'an became a little anxious because he had never waited so long before.

Another hour passed, and Lan An was about to fall asleep from waiting. He heard the roar of a tiger in a trance, and Lan An woke up instantly. The sound was coming from far away and getting closer. If Lan An guessed correctly, it should be a group of tigers fighting. Lan An did not want to miss this good opportunity.

Without a moment's hesitation, Lan Euan flashed out from the space. Five tigers were besieging a blind bear. Lan Euan reacted quickly, shot and killed the two largest tigers, and flashed into the space the moment they pounced.

Fortunately, he was not injured this time. Lan'an felt the tiger's roar was getting more and more rapid. The tiger did not go far away, as if it wanted to tear him apart. After a few minutes, it became quieter. Lan'an tentatively threw out a piece of meat. Sure enough, a tiger pounced on him, and Lan'an shot it directly.

After waiting for another half an hour, there was no sound. It had been delayed for a long time, and Lan An didn't want to wait any longer. The longer he waited, the more dangerous it would be. It might even bring new dangers. Lan An directly made his bow and arrow appear and walked out.

It was considered lucky, maybe there was a golden finger. There was nothing else except the corpses of three tigers. Lan Euan quickly put them into the space and hurried back.

On the way back, I didn't dare to stop when I saw pheasants, rabbits and blue gums. It was too dangerous. It would have been better to have a familiar hunter to lead me.

It seemed that all the good luck had just been used up. On the way back, Lan'an encountered three big wild boars and was almost injured. Although he killed one wild boar, his face was scratched by branches and he accidentally sprained his ankle. Fortunately, he was not far from the exit. Just as Lan'an was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he saw a little wild boar rushing towards him. Lan'an shot the little wild boar, but was also hit by inertia against a tree. Fortunately, it was not serious and his bones were not broken.

Lan'an put the little wild boar into the space, and finally limped out of the forest. It was already past dinner time, and he happened to meet Brother Xu who came to look for him.

"Anger, are you hurt?"

"It's okay, just help me back."

Lan Euan returned to the yard. Everyone was shocked by Lan Euan's miserable condition. Brother Xie came over recently.

"What are you doing? Your face is scratched."

"I went into the back mountains to hunt."

"How did you get this look?"

"I was chased by a wild boar. It's okay, Brother Xie, you can continue with your work."

Lan An gave Brother Xu a few instructions, then found a deserted place and entered the space. Lan An quickly took off his clothes and entered the Lingquan Pool. It felt really sour and refreshing, and it seemed that his back was seriously injured.

Although he was fearless when fighting the tiger before, Lan An is now anxious. If Zhang Xiaomo sees him like this, she will definitely be anxious. If he doesn't go back, Zhang Xiaomo will not treat him obediently. Lan An doesn't know what to do for a while.

After soaking for an hour, Lan Euan came out of the space. When he came out, he had changed his clothes and the wound on his face had disappeared. Although the swelling on his feet had subsided, he still couldn't walk with force.

"Anger, can you do this? Why don't you go to the county town to recuperate for a few days and just accompany Mo Di?"

"How could I dare to go back? He would be worried to death if he saw me."

"I think he'll get angry, An Ge'er. You're really wrong about this. Bring a few more people with you next time you go into the back mountain."

After finishing work, Lan An decided not to return to the county town and asked Brother Xie to help deliver a message.

"Brother Xu, please go back and tell Guo Ge'er that I won't be back for the next two days. Something's going on in the village."

Lan An took out the written letter and asked Brother Xu to give it to Guo Ge'er. This was a love letter he wrote to Zhang Xiaomo. He had to wait for two or three days to see if it could be finished. Otherwise, it would be difficult to hide it if it took too long.

Zhang Xiaomo was not happy when he received Lan An's letter. He had already made up his mind to go back to Lianhua Village tomorrow. He was sure that An An was hiding something from him again.

Guo Ge'er persuaded Zhang Xiaomo again and again, and finally Zhang Xiaomo agreed to wait for a day. However, Lan An still did not come back the next day, but he wrote another letter to Zhang Xiaomo. However, Zhang Xiaomo could not sit still at home, and Guo Ge'er could not persuade him, so he finally agreed to let his brother take a carriage back to Lianhua Village.

After two days of rest, plus an hour of drinking spiritual spring water every day, Lan Euan's body recovered much better. He still couldn't exert too much force on his feet, but he could walk normally without any problem.

Bored, Lan An planned to go to the fields to take a look. Brother Xu was really busy these days and had no time to go to the fields, so Lan An wanted to go and take a look. He had also decided that after this time, he would go to the county town to accompany Zhang Xiaomo for a week and then come back.

The seedlings planted in the field before are all alive and not withered, which is good.

The tomato seedlings in the field are growing well. In half a month, the extra branches can be pruned off. This way, the tomato trees will not grow too tall and will produce more fruits.

As for peanuts, I’m actually not sure about Blue Gum either. I can only wait and see how the peanuts turn out when they’re ripe.

When villagers walked through the blue gum peanut field, they all thought he had planted a lot of grass.

The watermelon noodles are growing well and will probably bloom and bear fruit in less than a month.

The watermelons grown in sandy soil should be very sweet. I hope we can produce more watermelons.

The peppers and ginger are growing well, and the blue gums are growing well too. I also visited a few aunts' houses and they seem good too.

In the fields, the people of Lotus Village were working hard, chatting and laughing, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.

The resettled disaster victims are also doing their best to help the villagers. No one is lazy and no one cares about gains and losses.

Lan Euan likes this simple and pure life without intrigue.

Lan An didn't expect to see Zhang Xiaohua again. Even after such a mess, she still dared to come to him.

"I'm pregnant and the baby is two months old."

"Yeah, so, what does it have to do with me?"

"I hope that after the baby is born, you, my brother, and Guo Ge'er can come."

"We are no longer related, did you know that?"

Lan An didn't want to talk to her any more, fearing that if anything happened to the child, it would be blamed on him. Now that it was just the two of them, he had no choice but to take the blame.

Zhang Xiaohua did not stay for long. She was going to deliver water to Sun the Butcher's family. Her life was not as good as before. Sun Fengshi and Sun the Butcher blamed her, and Sun Tugen was nowhere to be seen all day.

Lan An looked around again. He wanted to find Zhu the bricklayer, as he was the only one working in his family. Lan An wanted to ask him if he had much land at home. He planned to ask someone to help him so that he could come back as soon as possible to build the house.

After walking around for a while, he still couldn't find it. Lan'an's feet were a little sore and he couldn't walk around in the field anymore. The sun was getting bigger and bigger, and Lan'an's face was red from the sun, so he had to slowly go home.

Zhang Xiaomo also took Guo Ge'er back to the village in a carriage. Brother Xu knew without a doubt that it was him who had returned. At this moment, no one knew where Lan An was doing, and Brother Xu was worried about them.

"Brother Xu, where is An An?"

"He's out and will be back soon. Do you want to sit for a while?"

Under the persuasion of Brother Xu and Brother Guo, Zhang Xiaomo sat down in the most inconspicuous corner.

Lan An slowly returned to the yard. Everyone was busy. The sun was too hot at noon. Brother Xie and his group of brothers took off their shirts, revealing eight-pack abs. Lan An felt so envious. Then he looked at himself and saw that he had fat on his belly. When would he be able to have such a good figure?

Everyone was acting strangely today, and everyone's eyes seemed to have some questions. Lan An didn't care. Brother Xu couldn't help but mouthed something to Lan An, who was a little confused. Brother Xie, who was watching the fun, asked,

"Brother An, does it look good?"

"It's quite pretty."

"Your eyes are wide open. I can tell you like it very much."

"No, you're mistaken. I'm going to cook."

"Don't be anxious. I saw your husband and he is very angry now."

"Tsk, he's waiting for me in the county town. Besides, he won't be angry even if he knows."

"Really? Then Brother An, look behind you."

"An An, shouldn't I be angry?"

"Damn, who learned this? It's so similar."

Lan An looked back with half-belief, and it was indeed the person he had been thinking about day and night, but his face was a little dark. Lan An quickly threw himself into Zhang Xiaomo's arms, and his tone was soft and gentle, which was not common to others.

"Brother Xiaomo, I miss you so much."

"I think An An is having a good time."

"I really didn't, Brother Xiaomo, why are you here?"

"If I hadn't come, how would I have known that my An An is so romantic? Do they look good? Do you like them?"

Everyone stopped working for a while and just watched the fun. It really is true that there is always someone to conquer.

"No, my husband, I only love you. They are like wild boar meat in my eyes, really."

"I'll let you go for now. An An will explain it to me in the evening."

Zhang Xiaomo was angry, but he didn't want so many people to see An An acting like a spoiled child, so he could only let it go for now.

"Brother Xiaomo, have you eaten well these past two days? There are dark circles under your eyes. Did you not sleep well?"

"Anger, when you were away, my brother didn't eat well. He stayed up late painting and didn't sleep, so he insisted on taking a medicinal bath."

Despite Zhang Xiaomo's murderous gaze, Guo Ge'er still went ahead and filed a complaint.

When Lan An heard this, his first reaction was not anger, but heartache. It was all his fault for not keeping his promise.

"Brother Xiaomo, can I make soup for you?"

"Okay, I'll listen to An An."

Everyone rolled their eyes speechlessly. They thought they could just watch the fun, but they didn't expect everyone to be fed dog food. Not to mention, they were all quite full.

Brother Xie arranged his brothers to work. He felt that Brother An's husband was extraordinary, and he needed to learn from him. He didn't believe it anymore, and he had to find out the truth. Although ten years had passed, he still wanted an answer.

"Brother Xie, do you have something to tell me?"

"How did you figure that out, Brother Mo? Brother An listens to you so much, you're really something special."

Zhang Xiaomo was speechless. Everything about you is written on your face, and anyone who is not stupid can see it. No wonder An An always says he is weird or silly when she mentions him.

"Just say what you want to say."

"Are Lan Euan and Foreman Zhu on good terms?"

"Not bad, they get along well."

"Do you know about Foreman Zhu?"

"I know. An An told me."

"Then tell me about it."

"reason?"

"I'll let Brother An go back to the county town to stay with you for a week, and I'll tell you a secret of his."

"make a deal."

The two reached an agreement, and Zhang Xiaomo told Brother Xie everything he knew about Zhu Ni, the bricklayer. This was also thanks to An An who told him everything she knew, including the fact that the hen in Grandma Kong's house in the village laid double-yolked eggs. After all, Aunt Wang was also a gossip expert in the village, and Lan An loved to chat with her when he had nothing to do.

"Does Foreman Zhu really love his wife?"

"Anyway, the whole Lianhua Village knows that his wife has been in poor health since she came to our village. She fell ill within two years. He has always been there for her and has always supported the family. He is also the one who takes care of the two children."

"Oh, they have a pretty good relationship then."

Brother Xie also thought that he was quite despicable and was looking for trouble. Now, he knew that they were deeply in love. No matter what he said, he was just a fellow apprentice. No one knew about their past except them.

Brother Xie also kept his promise and bought blue gum without hesitation. Zhang Xiaomo also knew that Lan Eucalyptus had sprained his foot when he went into the mountains to hunt again and was hit by a wild boar and hit a tree. No wonder he didn't dare to see him.

After the two of them finished talking, both of them looked unhappy. Lan An didn't know that he was going to be in big trouble and was still making chicken soup.

It is not easy for Lan Euan to prepare lunch. After all, it is very tiring for one person to cook for more than 30 people.

Fortunately, Guo Ge'er was there to help. Although he couldn't cook, he was quite skilled at washing and cutting vegetables.

For lunch, Lan An prepared braised pork, scrambled eggs with leeks, bok choy, and salad tomatoes. He also boiled a large pot of tea, mainly because he was afraid everyone was thirsty.

Lan An also made a separate chicken soup with Lingquan water and ginseng. Lan An also made a dish of sweet and sour pork ribs, as Zhang Xiaomo likes sweet and sour food.

It was more than an hour later than the usual meal time, and everyone finally had their meal. Except for Zhang Xiaomo and Brother Xie, everyone ate a lot.

Although Guo Ge'er is not picky, he hasn't eaten food made with blue gum for several days. He still misses it and eats it all the time.

In the end, Lan An coaxed Zhang Xiaomo to eat, fed him personally, said a lot of soft words, and gave him many kisses before he reluctantly let Zhang Xiaomo eat a few bites.

Brother Xie was filled with envy when he saw this. It was Brother Mo who was the best. In comparison, he was really the most miserable. He felt a little depressed for a while. He had been suppressing this thought in his heart and didn't want to talk about it, but now he wanted to talk about it.

After eating a few bites of food, Brother Xie went to Zhu the bricklayer's house. He just looked outside the gate for a long time without going in.

When he came back, his back looked a little depressed and his eyes were red.

"Brother An, Brother Mo, you're also curious about what happened between him and me, right?"

"Thank you, brother. If you don't want to say it, don't say it."

"It's okay, I know you're curious, but there's nothing you can't tell me."

Brother Xie sat on the ground leaning against the railing of the yard and talked about his past with Zhu Ni, the bricklayer.
