The next morning, Jing Li opened his eyes and immediately found himself still sleeping in Qin Zhao's arms.
Qin Zhao hasn't woken up yet.
Jing Li looked up. Qin Zhaoan lay quietly beside him, his eyes slightly closed. From Jing Li's perspective, he could clearly see the other person's eyelashes, each of them distinct and slightly curled.
Even though they have lived together for such a long time, Jing Li is still a little dazed.
He had never seen anyone as handsome and good-looking as Qin Zhao.
But he is more than just his appearance. His knowledge, his character, and his gentleness are all impeccable.
But...this person is so nice to him.
Jing Li stared at the sleeping face in a daze, and for some unknown reason he reached out and gently poked the other person's face.
Warm, firm, smooth.
His face was extremely thin, which was perhaps the only flaw in Qin Zhao's appearance. Jing Li couldn't imagine what he would look like if he wasn't sick.
"...What are you thinking about?" Qin Zhao opened his eyes at some point, and his voice had a bit of the hoarseness that was unique to the early morning.
Jing Li was caught off guard and met the other person's gaze. He trembled all over and subconsciously wanted to step back.
But Qin Zhao still had one hand on his waist, blocking all escape routes.
Jing Li was so nervous that he didn't dare to look up. He whispered, "I didn't think anything."
Qin Zhao obviously didn't believe it.
But he didn't say anything else. He raised the hand that was around Jing Li's waist, pinched his face lightly, and said lightly, "I'll give it back to you."
Then he stood up and put on his clothes.
Jing Li remained in his original position for a while before he realized his ears were burning. He rubbed his ears in frustration. Qin Zhao had already handed him his clothes. "We agreed to go to town today. Hurry and change."
They had just moved into a new house and had some things to buy.
For example, plant some flowers and plants in the yard.
The two of them took an ox cart to the town, Jingli paid the fare, and then they headed to the market.
Ever since he decided to let Jing Li manage the money, Qin Zhao kept his word and gave all to Jing Li without leaving a single penny.
There is a flower market in the town that specializes in selling flowers, and the entrances of the shops are filled with various kinds of flowers.
"This bag of flower seeds costs eight cents?" Jing Li couldn't believe it. "This is too expensive..."
The flower market owner was a kind-looking middle-aged woman. She wasn't annoyed by Jing Li's words and said, "This is a crabapple flower. This kind of crabapple is planted at the perfect time of year. A fully bloomed plant can fetch dozens of coins."
"Hmm..." Jing Li looked embarrassed.
There are about twenty seeds in this packet. It would be great if half of them can germinate.
To fill his yard with plants, he would have to buy at least three or four bags.
This store does sell flower plants that have already sprouted, but the price is several times higher than the flower seeds, making them even more unaffordable.
The first time Jing Li went out to manage money, he encountered a huge setback.
He turned around and looked at Qin Zhao behind him. The latter just smiled at him and said, "If you want it, buy it."
The flower market owner followed suit, "Yes, this flower looks beautiful when grown, and both the nectar and petals can be used to make snacks. Your husband said it's okay to buy it, so what are you worried about?"
"He is not me--" Jing Li subconsciously wanted to deny it, but Qin Zhao gently hooked his finger.
Jing Li pursed his lips and said nothing more.
Do I have to pretend here too?
Jing Li didn't say anything else, but he didn't let go of the hand that was hooked around his fingers.
He felt a little embarrassed, his eyes wandering uncomfortably until he noticed another kind of flower on the counter: "How much is that?"
