Chapter 45 Hairpin



Li Xiayun looked at Gui Feng's departing back and shouted with a bit of bitterness: "Brother Feng, when are you leaving tomorrow? I'll see you off."

Gui Feng waved his hand, signaling him to go back quickly: "No need."

When Gui Feng returned to the car, he saw Chi An looking at him with resentment and grievance.

See him look at him.

She pouted and said, "You still remember to come back. I thought you were not coming back. After all, how can the flowers at home be as fragrant as the wild flowers?"

Chi Yuyao: “!”

It’s not that her brother is sick, didn’t her brother-in-law just say a few words to his good friend?

Is it necessary to be so jealous?

Is this possessiveness too strong?

Gui Feng was no longer surprised by Chi An's behavior.

He took out a peach wood hairpin he had carved from his pocket and handed it to Chi An: "This is for you."

Chi An looked at the hairpin in front of him and felt happy.

He stretched out his claws, took the hairpin, and was extremely happy.

The style of the hairpin is very simple.

It's not as gorgeous as those sold in the Beijing store.

But Chi An thinks this hairpin is the most beautiful one, better looking than any other hairpin.

Gui Feng drove the carriage home, pretending to be calm: "The word 'An' is engraved on the inside of the hairpin."

Chi An turned the hairpin and took a look.

indeed.

There is a word "An" engraved on the inside of the hairpin.

Chi An was extremely happy.

Leaning her head on Guifeng's shoulder, she said, "Brother, you are so kind."

Guifeng's ears turned slightly red: "Yeah." You are very good too.

Chi Yuyao who was sitting in the carriage: “…” I shouldn’t be here, I should be under the carriage.

That’s enough.

Isn't it just a hairpin? Is it necessary to be so happy?

Gui Feng patted Chi An's shoulder and said, "Sit tight, be careful not to fall."

Chi An kissed Gui Feng on the face: "Brother is so nice."

Guifeng's lips curled slightly, very happy.

My little husband is handsome and knows how to act coquettishly.

Very good.

It's just that life sucks.

When they got home, the people who were building the house next door had not left yet.

Liu Hu and Li Ergou saw Gui Feng coming back and greeted him, "Brother Feng is back."

Gui Feng responded, "Well, let's go back after we finish the work at hand. It's not safe to walk on the road at night."

People from other villages who come to work here: "Good boss."

These people feel that working at Guifeng is as good as it can get.

Not only is the salary high.

It’s close to home, and I can drink sugary drinks from time to time.

This good job is so hard to find even with a lantern.

Guifeng took out the key and opened the door.

After the door opened, Gui Feng looked at Chi An and asked, "Can you unload the carriage?"

Guifeng planned to leave the carriage behind.

This way it would be more convenient for Chi An and Li Xiayun to go back and forth to the academy.

It will also be convenient for you to take exams in the future.

Riding in someone else's carriage is time-consuming and not as convenient as riding in your own.

Chi An said confidently: "Yes."

Gui Feng was a little worried about Chi An unloading the carriage by himself, so he followed him to take a look.

Although the process was bumpy, the result was right.

"Reload the carriage, and I'll see."

Chi An squatted on the ground and looked up at Gui Feng.

He listened to Guifeng's words and probably guessed something.

I’m afraid my husband will really leave tomorrow.

Leave the carriage to him.

"Brother, when you leave tomorrow, how are you going to get there?"

It would cost a lot of money to leave the carriage at home and hire a car to go there.

As he spoke, he loaded the carriage.

The first time is new, the second time is familiar.

Gui Feng looked at Chi An's skillful movements and felt relieved.

"Take it off."

"I will go with the caravan tomorrow and I will give you the carriage. Then you can go to the academy with Li Xiayun."

"There is a livestock market near the academy. You can spend twenty coins to have someone help you feed the horses. When you finish school, go there with Li Xiayun, pick up the carriage, and then come back."

Chi An unloaded the carriage and started feeding the horses.

"Brother, do you like Li Xiayun?"

Guifeng scooped water three times with a ladle and poured it into the sink.

"What nonsense are you talking about."

Chi An: "But you mentioned Li Xiayun twice when you were talking just now."

Guifeng: “…”

"No. Don't let your imagination run wild. I'm going to cook."

Chi An quickly fed the horse, washed his hands, trotted to Gui Feng, and hugged Gui Feng's arm: "I'll go with my brother. I'll cook."

Chi An: o( ̄ヘ ̄o#) Brother doesn’t like Li Xiayun, hehe, that’s good, brother is me alone.

While cooking, Chi An thought of something: "Brother, do you want me to make you some pancakes so you can take them with you on the road?"

Guifeng: "I've got it, let me cook your food."

"Will my brother write to me?"

"Can."

"Brother is injured and needs to be treated with medicine immediately."

"good."

In the bedroom at night.

Guifeng lit two candles and placed them on the kang table.

He opened a box, inside which were four silver notes of one hundred taels each.

There was also one guan of money and twenty taels of silver.

Gui Feng pushed the box in front of Chi An and said, "This is the money I left for you. It will be used for your tuition, travel expenses, and food and clothing for the next few years. I have already paid for the labor costs of building the house, so you don't have to pay anymore. I have bought rice, flour, grain, and oil for the kitchen and stored them in the cupboard."

"The kitchen still has some bacon that we bought. We'll fry it with garlic sprouts in the winter. The firewood room is already full of firewood. The stove for burning in the winter is in my tool room."

"There is an unused stove outside the house. The stove is connected to the Kang. In winter, water is heated on the stove and the Kang is kept warm."

"There is an iron cover on the stove, so you can keep food warm on it. If it's cold in winter and you don't want to go out, you can prepare all the food for the day at once, put it in the supplies, and keep it warm on the stove."

"If you really don't want to cook, Aunt Wang and her family will move next door. You can just go over and eat. Aunt Wang won't say anything. In winter, you should wear a thick jacket and dress warmly. Don't be reluctant to eat meat."

Chi An felt his eyes warm as he listened to Gui Feng's detailed account of what had happened.

He put his head on Guifeng's shoulder and said with a tearful voice: "Brother."

Guifeng closed the lid of the box.

Put the key in Chi An's hand: "Don't be sad, it's not a life-and-death separation, we will meet again in the future."

Chi An: "Can I write to my brother then?"

Guifeng: "Of course."

Chi An kissed Gui Feng's Adam's apple: "Brother, hug me."

Gui Feng patted Chi An's shoulder and said, "Well, it's getting late. It's time to clean up and go to bed."

After Guifeng tidied up the things on the table, he blew out the candles.

Place the kang table.

Pull the quilt over him and Chi An.

Chi An leaned in Gui Feng's arms, his eyes wide open, not feeling sleepy at all.

After a long, long time, Chi An tentatively called out, "Brother?"

Gui Feng responded, "Yeah."

Chi An held Gui Feng's hand and asked nervously, "Brother, if you become a general in the future and send people to look for me, remember to tell them my characteristics. If you have a portrait of me, show them my portrait. Don't just let them use our two jade pendants to look for me like in the storybook."

"What if a thief steals my jade pendant, pretends to be me, and then frames me? I will die unjustly."

Gui Feng patted Chi An's back gently: "Okay, listen to An An."

Chi An: o(*////▽////*)q My brother called me An An, I’m happy. Humph, I will put an end to anyone who wants to climb into my brother’s bed.

His brother can only belong to him.
