Otherworldly Days

At dusk and sunset, another day passed.

After sending Sun Bailian's family away, Qi Wanfeng closed the firewood gate of the small courtyard and dropped the bolt.Two hens in the yard brought a group of chicks back to the nest. The two rabbits in the cage were leaning against each other motionless, as if they were asleep. His husband was hugging the baby and didn't know what he was talking about. The baby giggled very happy.

At this moment, Qi Wanfeng suddenly felt very at ease.

The small yard is peaceful and quiet, there is no mother who doesn't like them here, and there is no need to listen to some gossips between the brothers, and the children will not be bullied and wronged by the children of the other two families every day. hapiness.

Qi Wanfeng is reluctant to recall the days in that compound now, he doesn't know how he has been there for so many years, but he knows that they will never go back there again.Shaking his head, he didn't think about those anymore.

There are also his husband and children here. Although life is poor, people's hearts are full of hope.

Now the days are long and the nights are short, the sunset time is late, there is still a faint cloud in the west, and the sky is still bright.After taking a bath, they sat in the yard to enjoy the shade. Cao Xiangnan finally got his wish and took a bath and put on clean clothes.

People in this era have long hair. Looking at Wan Feng's long hair Cao Xiangnan is very pleasing to the eye, but this long hair on his head feels awkward anyway, and I don't know how long it will take to wash it off. Dry, so he told Wanfeng to let him cut his hair for him.

"Husband, Fulang." Qi Wanfeng suspected that he had heard wrong.

"Wanfeng, I'm serious, just cut it here? It can be tied up like this." Cao Xiangnan compared the length on his shoulders. It's unrealistic to cut it to the length of the shoulders. Is it okay to tie it up?

In the end, Qi Wanfeng couldn't reach his husband, so he took the scissors and cut off his husband's long hair.The scissors in his hand cut off Fu Lang's long hair, Qi Wanfeng held the cut hair in his hand, smiled helplessly, thought of wrapping the long hair with a cloth and put it away, turned around and went back into the house up.

With his long hair cut short, Cao Xiangnan felt that his whole head was light. He shook his head, thinking that this was barely acceptable.

An An bit her little finger and looked at the happy father in puzzlement, blinking her big eyes and asked, "Daddy, why are you so happy?"

"Hey." A father was giggling, "You don't understand."

The father and son would practice arithmetic for a period of time every day. When Qi Wanfeng came out, he saw his husband and the child counting fingers. He also leaned over curiously, and the more he listened, the more interested he became.

The two of them also talked about going to the town to set up a stall. Qi Wanfeng told his husband about everything about going to the town today, the stall he found, the things he bought, and the money he spent.

Cao Xiangnan used the arithmetic he had just taught to teach Qi Wanfeng how to count. One taught and the other learned. Qi Wanfeng is a very smart student.An An, who has studied arithmetic for a few days, can already do simple arithmetic, and it sounds like she can help his mother answer one.

"Our An'an is really good." Qi Wanfeng didn't think it was a shame that he didn't even compare his own child, but was proud of his child's intelligence.

When An An heard his mother praise him, she held her little face and shook her head happily, very happy.

"Wanfeng, let's send An'an to school after two years when he is older." Cao Xiangnan shaved the child's nose and said to Qi Wanfeng with a smile.

"Fu Lang." The last time Qi Wanfeng heard his husband speak so quickly, he thought that his husband was trying to make the children happy, but this time he saw the seriousness on Fu Lang's face, and knew that his husband was not joking.

"I'm serious, do you think I'm joking?" Cao Xiangnan looked at Qi Wanfeng's eyes, reached out to hold his hand, and said, "When the child in your belly is born, whether it's a boy or a brother, When he grows up, he will also be sent to the school. If the child likes to study and take the imperial examination, let him continue to study, and if he doesn't like to read and recognize a few words, let him do what he likes. We just want them to be happy, you say yes ?"

As a modern person, Cao Xiangnan feels that no matter if he is a boy or a brother, he has the opportunity to study and go to school.It's like when he was with a grandma, no matter how poor his family was, they sent him to school to see the outside world.

"A person has a bit of culture in his stomach. He can do whatever he wants in the future. It doesn't mean that he must become a high-ranking official after studying. Wanfeng, I will spare a little time every day to teach you how to read and write. You can also keep accounts in the future. It’s as if you learned arithmetic well just now, and you will take care of all the family’s money in the future.” Cao Xiangnan looked at Qi Wanfeng’s ignorant eyes, and said with a smile to him.

He will not ask Qi Wanfeng to follow his footsteps in one step, after all, their thoughts are separated by thousands of years, but he will lead this person forward slowly. There is still a long way to go, and they can go a long way. Far.

Qi Wanfeng is not a stupid person, he just lacks a chance to learn.

"Okay." Qi Wanfeng shook his husband's hand and nodded vigorously.

Unknowingly, this home is quietly changing, and everything is developing in a better direction.
