Chapter 36 Foolproof

Jiang Zhu took out a handkerchief and covered Ji Fangfang's wrist, then took her pulse through the handkerchief.

　　Ji Fangfang originally hoped that by taking the pulse, the two of them could have some physical contact, but she failed, and her face became paler.

　　"Can you take your pulse accurately like this?" She couldn't help but ask.

　　Jiang Zhu put away the handkerchief and threw it on the ground, then looked at her: "Miss Ji, you don't believe in my medical skills?"

　　"no no!"

　　Ji Fangfang quickly waved her hand: "Then you've checked your pulse. What on earth is wrong with me?"

　　Jiang Zhu: "The weather has been hot recently, and the heat is in full swing. The girl is afraid that she may suffer from heatstroke. I will give you a prescription to relieve the heat and strengthen the spleen. Take two and you will be fine."

After he finished speaking, he began to write out the prescription.

　　Ji Fangfang felt anxious when she saw what he had done and saw that the "disease" was over.

　　She heard yesterday that Jiang Zhu and Ye Annian were sending wedding invitations in the village and that they were going to get married in five days. She felt unhappy and sour in her heart.

　　After lying on the kang for two days, I finally came up with a plan today.

　　I originally planned to ask her mother to invite Jiang Zhu home under the pretext of being sick and put the medicine she finally got from her good sisters into the tea.

　　When the time comes, the rice will be cooked, and I'm afraid the marriage in a few days will be hers.

　　Jiang Zhu finished writing the prescription, folded it and handed it to Ji Fangfang: "Take it, Miss Ji. You can get this prescription from me, or you can go to the town to get it. The consultation fee is fifty cents. If you want to get the medicine, you can get two sets." The medicine is a total of one hundred and twenty liters."

　　After he finished speaking, he looked at Ji Fangfang and Aunt Tianhua with a smile on his face. The meaning was very obvious. I'm done reading the book. You two can pay and leave.

　　Aunt Tianhua didn't know what Ji Fangfang had planned. She only knew that it would cost her more than 100 yuan to get a job for this damn girl.

　　He was so angry that he raised his hand and slapped her on the head: "You damn girl!"

　　"Just lie down at home and it will be fine! What are you doing to waste my money by coming to see a doctor and get medicine!"

　　"Ouch! Mom!"

　　Ji Fangfang covered her head, feeling ashamed and angry.

　　This was in front of that little bitch Ye Anyian. How could her mother hit her like this? Doesn't she want to lose face? !

　　"I feel really uncomfortable." Ji Fangfang sniffed, her eyes turning red.

　　She looked at Jiang Zhu, tears welling up in her eyes: "Mr. Jiang, am I just in charge?"

　　Jiang Zhu rubbed his eyebrows and asked her patiently: "Then what else do you feel uncomfortable about?"

　　"Well..." Ji Fangfang lowered her head and rolled her eyes, "I'm still very anxious, my chest feels tight and uncomfortable, and sometimes I can't breathe. You see..."

　　She held the handkerchief with one hand and pulled the front of her clothes with the other. If Aunt Tian Hua and Ye Anian were not there, they would be stuck to it.

　　Ye Anian was carving a wooden mouse without looking sideways, but she was so confused by what she did that he almost cut off the mouse's tail with a shake of his hand.

　　Chi Guoguo's seduction, this girl is so brave, her mother is right next to her.

　　Jiang Zhu was even more miserable. She had goosebumps all over her body and the hairs on her body stood up.

　　"Miss Ji," he sat up straight, leaned back, and tried to distance himself from Ji Fangfang, "I'm afraid your illness is difficult to cure."

　　He didn't care that the face of Aunt Tianhua next to him was blue and white, white and red, and said bluntly: "It needs to be boiled with honeysuckle, forsythia, dandelion, andrographis and prunella vulgaris."

These medicines have the effect of clearing away heat and purging fire. Ye Anian has been following Jiang Zhu for a while and knows a little bit about them.

　　He held the wooden sculpture in his hand and tried to maintain a calm expression on his face.

　　Jiang Zhu continued: "Of course, considering how severe your illness is, just taking medicine may not be enough."

　　Ji Fangfang didn't understand the medicinal properties of these herbs, so she asked expectantly: "What else do you need?"

　　"We still need a man to serve as a medicine introduction." Jiang Zhu curled his lips and looked at Aunt Tianhua, "Auntie, I think you'd better take Miss Ji back quickly and find a man to marry as soon as possible."

　　Aunt Tianhua's face had been uneasy since just now, and now that she heard what he said, her face became even more ugly.

　　She grabbed Ji Fangfang's arm, pulled her up from the stool, and ran out of the courtyard as if running away.

　　Jiang Zhu looked at the two people's hurried backs and finally couldn't help laughing: "Auntie, don't forget the consultation fee!"

　　After leaving the yard, Aunt Tianhua pulled Ji Fangfang and ran faster.

　　After the two troublemakers left, peace returned to the small medicine house.

　　Ye Annian breathed a sigh of relief and sighed: "These two are really good at making monsters."

　　"Yes," Jiang Zhu agreed, "Have you seen what Ji Fangfang was like just now? If Aunt Tianhua and I had gone to see a doctor before, I don't know what this girl was going to do."

　　Although he disdains these petty tricks, he also hates having anything to do with such people.

　　Ye Anyian nodded: "It's better to be more cautious in the future."

　　After saying that, he lowered his head and continued polishing the wooden mouse.

　　Jiang Zhu stared at him for a while and couldn't help but said: "You just... don't have any ideas?"

　　Ye Anyian raised his head when he heard this and looked at him seriously: "What do you think?"

　　"Just... that's it," Jiang Zhu considered the words, "Aren't you afraid that Ji Fangfang will really succeed?"

　　Ye Anian was stunned, and then burst into laughter.

　　Those cold eyes were curved beautifully, and the dark pupils were shining. Jiang Zhu was stunned for a moment.

　　"If she really succeeds," Ye Anyian curled his lips, "then I will laugh at you forever."

　　Jiang Zhu:...

　　He held his forehead and smiled too.

　　I was really confused to ask such a question.

　　The atmosphere between the two of them was relaxed here, but on the other side, Aunt Tianhua was so angry that her head was about to smoke.

　　Her old face was red and hot now, and she was so ashamed that she slapped Ji Fangfang on the face.

　　"Damn it! I don't think you want that face anymore!"

　　"You unmarried girl, look what you just said?!"

　　"If your father finds out about this, he will beat you to death!"

　　"Mom, what are you talking about!" Ji Fangfang covered her face and shed tears.

　　"My chest is tight and I can't breathe. What's wrong with serious medical treatment?!"

　　"How dare you say that!"

　　Aunt Tianhua angrily went to pinch her ears: "Are you seeing a doctor? If I weren't here today, you would pounce on him!"

　　"I'm just telling you why you've been so sick these past two days, not eating or drinking, and you really think you're sick! It's just like what Jiang Langzhong said, you miss a man!"

"I'm telling you, Jiang Zhu, don't even think about it. I've asked Aunt Zhang to find Granny Sun as a matchmaker for you. If you have that good man, marry him as soon as possible to save your worries!"

　　"I don't!"?

　　Ji Fangfang twisted her handkerchief and stamped her feet. After saying this, she turned around and ran home without waiting for Aunt Tianhua.

　　Aunt Tianhua's legs were shaking with anger, but there was nothing she could do. She sighed and walked slowly home, holding her legs.

　　…

　　In the afternoon, no one came to disturb him. Ye Anian continued to work on his wood carvings in the medicine house, while Jiang Zhu was organizing the medicine shelves.

　　Fu Zai had a great time playing with the bamboo dragonfly. Although he had difficulty moving, he still had the copper coin. Every time the bamboo dragonfly flew out, he could chase the copper coin immediately. When he caught it, he would hold it in his mouth and take it back. To Fu Zai.

　　Children and puppies quickly became addicted to this traveling game. A bamboo dragonfly flying high and far is much more fun than a cloth ball with a single trajectory.

　　But after playing for a while, Fuzai shouted in the yard: "Brother!"

　　"The bamboo dragonfly flew into the tree!"

　　When Ye Annian heard the shouting, he stopped what he was doing and got up and went out. He saw the bamboo dragonfly he made hanging on the big locust tree at the entrance of the courtyard.

　　Ye Anyian:...

　　It seems that he can't reach this height.

　　"What's wrong?"

　　Jiang Zhu, who heard the commotion, also came out.

　　Ye Annian pointed to the bamboo dragonfly hanging high on the tree branch: "It seems a bit high."

　　Jiang Zhu looked in the direction of his finger and said, "I'll go get the bamboo pole and try it."

　　When he used cicadas to harvest cicadas for medicine, he used long bamboo poles to make sticky nets, but now they come in handy.

　　He quickly went to the main room and took out the bamboo pole. With a light poke, the bamboo dragonfly hanging on the tree fell down.

　　Ye Annian picked it up and gave it to Fuzai, and warned: "Don't fly so high this time. If you go higher, you won't be able to reach it."

　　"I know." Fu Zai nodded, "Thank you, brother, thank you, Doctor Jiang!"

　　Jiang Zhu touched his head and went back to Yaolu to continue working.

　　From the corner of his eye, Ye Annian caught a glimpse of Ding Qiu sitting beside the stone table. He was sitting upright, holding a branch in his hand, while reciting "Shen Nong's Materia Medica" and making gestures on the table with his hands. The figure looked a little lonely.

　　The wooden tops and bamboo dragonflies he made were placed quietly beside them. When Ding Qiu endorsed them, he would touch them with his left hand intentionally or unintentionally. He seemed to like them very much at first sight.

　　Ye Annian frowned. Seeing Fu Zai playing with the bamboo dragonfly so happily, he suddenly realized that maybe toys like wooden tops and bamboo dragonflies were not suitable for Ding Qiu.

　　At least until Ding Qiu's eyes heal, he won't be able to play.

Before, he always thought about Fuzai, Dingqiu and Shitou. The three children could not favor one over the other. Dingqiu also had to have toys that Fuzai and Shitou had.

　　But now he discovered that this was not the case, and the toys that suited Ding Qiu were the best.

　　Thinking like this, he decided to stop carving the twelve zodiac signs and make a Luban lock for Ding Qiu first.

　　Ding Qiu is a smart kid. Even if he can't see, he should be able to solve it by groping.

　　He just started, and just as Zi Shu had finished carving, he took out a new piece of wood and started to make the Luban lock.

　　Jiang Zhu had already finished what he was doing and was playing with the fat duck that Ye Anyian had just carved in the morning.

　　Holding it in my hand, I couldn't get enough of it by looking left and right. Sometimes I touched the round duck head, and sometimes I touched the patterned wings on the duck's body. I liked it as much as I liked it.

　　He wondered whether he should find a red string and tie it around the duck's neck to hang it.

　　Just as I was thinking about it, I heard Ye Annian say: "If you keep serving it like this, in a few days, this duck will probably be covered in pulp."

　　"If you like to plate things, find two nice-looking walnuts some other time, and I'll help you polish the edges."

　　Jiang Zhu:...

　　…

　　In the blink of an eye, the day before the wedding came.

　　Jiang Zhu went to town early in the morning to pick up the custom-made wedding clothes. Ye Anian took Fu Zai and Ding Qiu at home, posting happy words, hanging red silk, and preparing some wedding candies and melon seeds for entertaining guests.

　　If he didn't go back to Ye's house, he wouldn't have to accept the wedding. The two had discussed it in advance and they would hold the wedding ceremony in the courtyard, with Zhao Lizheng presiding over it.

　　If Ye Chenghe comes, he can come. If he doesn't come, he can just pray to heaven and earth. It saves trouble. Jiang Zhu doesn't have any parents anyway.

　　At first, Ye Chenghe learned that Ye Annian would not leave home even after getting married, and he was so angry that he came to argue with him. However, Jiang Zhu took the initiative to find him once, and he didn't know what he said, but he actually agreed.

　　Old Man Ye and Wu Xianglian wanted to have a fight, but Ye Chenghe drove them back.

　　He is now the money tree of the Ye family. The business he does in the town can earn ten taels of silver a month. Now the whole Ye family supports him.

　　After sending Jiang Zhu out in the morning, Ye Annian used Jiang Zhu's small clay stove to boil some paste, and pasted the words "happy" that the two of them had cut out overnight on the doors and windows of the east and west rooms and the main room.

　　Two big red flowers were tied into the red silk river bamboo, and Ye Annian hung them on both sides of the bamboo fence gate in the yard.

　　The remaining silk fabrics were used to decorate the fences and medicine houses.

　　He was hanging the red silk on the fence wall when he suddenly felt his feet being pinched by something. When he lowered his head, he saw that the copper coin was wagging its tail and looking at him with bright eyes.

　　This little thing is very spiritual. It seems to know that a happy event is coming at home. When Ye Anyian was decorating inside and outside in the morning, it kept running behind him.

　　"I'm getting married." Ye Anian knelt down and touched the copper coin's head and talked to it, "Why are you so happy?"

　　"Do you know what getting married is?"

　　Of course Tongqian didn't know, but when Ye Anyian talked to it, it was very happy and barked "woof" without knowing what he was talking about.

　　Seeing its silly look, Ye Anyian raised his lips and continued: "When we get married, we are a real family."

　　"Of course you are also a member of the family. We are all one family."

"Woof!"

　　"Woo~ woof woof!"

　　Copper Coin didn't know whether he understood or not, so he waggled his tail happily and rubbed his feet, pushing his head against his hand to ask for a touch.

　　Ye Annian rubbed its soft fur, thought for a while and said, "Since we are a family, let you also be happy."

　　He stood up as he spoke, took a piece of red silk from the fence and gently tied it around Copper Coin's neck with a bow.

　　The copper coin shook its head, and the ribbon of the bow followed it. The little thing suddenly became excited and ran wildly in the yard with its four legs, chasing the ribbon.

　　As a result, Fu Zai, who was sitting at the round table, saw him. Xiao Tuanzi looked at Ye Anian eagerly and said, "Brother, you gave me copper coins and flowers, I want them too!"

　　"OK."

　　Ye Annian took off two more red silk ribbons from the fence and said, "Both you and Ding Qiu have a share, tie them in your hair tomorrow morning."

　　"Oh! Me, Brother Qiu, and Coin Coin are all wearing red flowers!"

　　Xiaotuanzi waved his little hands, very happy.

　　Ye Anyian touched his head and raised the corners of his mouth unconsciously.

　　As for Jiang Zhu, who was far away in Tianshui Town, as soon as he got off Wu Chuan's ox cart, he went straight to a tailor shop, picked up the custom-made wedding clothes, checked that there were no defects or damage, and asked the shop owner to wrap them up and carry them out the door.

　　After taking the wedding clothes, he went to the firecracker shop and bought two small firecrackers.

　　After buying everything, I finally went to the blacksmith shop to get the carving knife that I had made for Ye Anyian last time. After I saw that there was nothing wrong with the drawings Ye Anyian drew, I thanked the boss and put it away.

　　After buying all the things he needed to buy, he didn't rush back. Instead, he went around to the only pawnshop in town, Zhou's Pawnshop.

　　He didn't go in, he just stood under the tree opposite the pawn shop and looked inside from a distance.

　　In the pawn shop, Ye Chenghe was dressed like a dog and was having a lively chat with a thirty-year-old woman behind the counter. The two of them were making love to each other, completely ignoring the people walking on the street.

　　Jiang Zhu watched for a while and then walked away. He walked a short distance and turned into an inconspicuous alley on the side of the street.

　　Checking that no one was around, he whistled in the air.

　　Not long after, a young man wearing dark clothing quietly jumped down from the roof.

　　Zi Mo saluted Jiang Zhu and said, "Master."

　　Jiang Zhu waved his hand and exempted him from the courtesy.

　　Zi Mo's eyes kept staring at the thing he was holding in his hand: "Master, you... you are really going to get married!"

Seeing his round eyes, Jiang Zhu raised his hand and hit him on the head.

　　Smiling: "Otherwise? Can I still lie to you?"

　　"But..." Zi Mo's expression was hard to explain, "In this remote mountain village? Who are you following?"

　　The young man touched his nose. He really couldn't imagine such a scene. When would a mountain village woman be able to catch the eyes of her master?

　　"You don't need to worry about these." Jiang Zhu said, "How did the investigation go when I asked you to investigate?"

　　"Found it." When talking about business, Zimo immediately corrected his attitude.

　　"The woman Ye Chenghe hooked up with is called Zhou Rong. She is the daughter of Zhou Zaiqian, the owner of Zhou Ji's pawnshop. She is twenty-eight this year. She married a foreign man before. Later, the man died of illness and she has been single. They have no children."

　　"Well," Jiang Zhu nodded, "You can find an opportunity later, put Ye Chenghe and Zhou Rong in sacks and tie them up, throw them anywhere, and let them go when it gets dark tomorrow."

　　"Yes." Zimo said.

　　After accepting the task, the boy's curiosity became even more intense. He chased Jiang Zhu and asked, "Master, master, why did these two people offend you?"

　　"Just tie him up? No need to beat him up or silence him or something?"

　　"Master, who are you marrying? Can I...sister Ziyu and I meet?"

　　Jiang Zhu was annoyed by him and had a headache. He rubbed his temples and looked at him with a smile: "If you keep making noises, you can go back to Kyoto and replace Ziyu."

　　"Shut up!" The young man quickly covered his mouth and silenced his voice instantly.

　　"Then go quickly, it's time for me to go back." After Jiang Zhu said that, he ignored him and turned around and walked out of the alley.

　　The reason he had previously persuaded Ye Chenghe to agree not to leave the Ye family when Ye Anian got married was that there would be a lot of money to be made that day.

　　Moreover, when the two of them got married, they would definitely worship their parents. Ye Chenghe was single now. He secretly encouraged Ye Chenghe that if he found someone he could join hands with, he might as well bring it to him that day and let everyone meet him in advance.

　　It was probably these words that made Ye Chenghe's heart move.

　　However, Jiang Zhu narrowed his peach blossom eyes.

　　Persuasion is only the first step. As long as the two of them are prevented from coming, there will be no one to be an eyesore in this marriage.

　　He didn't want Ye Anyian to be unhappy about such a big thing as getting married, so he had to make sure nothing went wrong.

　　After Jiang Zhu left, Zimo kept covering his mouth and didn't dare to put down his hands until his figure completely disappeared.

　　The young man sighed sadly and said to himself: "It's over, it's over. I'm afraid the master has been seduced by the wild vixen in the mountains."

　　This trip to Jiangzhu went quickly and came back quickly. We arrived home just after noon.

　　Ye Anyian came out to pick him up. When he saw what he was carrying, he couldn't help but ask, "Why did you buy firecrackers?"

　　"To add to the joy." Jiang Zhu smiled at him, "Let's get married this time."

　　"Okay." Ye Anyian was helpless.

　　The two of them entered the courtyard together. Fu Zai and Ding Qiu, who were playing in the courtyard, both greeted Jiang Zhu. Jiang Zhu replied and pulled Ye Anian into the east room.

"I've got my wedding dress back. Can I put it on and take a look?"

　　Ye Annian took the bundle wrapped in red cloth from his hand and pressed it heavily. When he opened it, he saw that it was still in a wooden box. He felt that it was not cheap.

　　But after buying everything, he opened the box and saw two sets of men's wedding clothes neatly stacked inside.

　　He picked up the set above and saw that it was rimmed with gold thread, the collar and hem were embroidered with lotus flowers, and the cuffs were embellished with beads the size of sesame seeds. The embroidery was exquisite and the style was the latest

When you hold it in your hand, there is a faint scent of incense.

　　"Is it still attractive?" Jiang Zhu asked.

　　Ye Anyian nodded: "Very good."

　　"It's not good and there's nothing we can do about it. This is already the latest model in town and the most exquisitely crafted style." Jiang Zhu smiled.

　　"Try it?"

　　Ye Annian touched the soft material of the clothes, and his face felt inexplicably hot again.

　　Seeing Jiang Zhu's expectant eyes, he still agreed.

　　Jiang Zhu turned around and went out, leaving him to change his clothes.

　　After a while, there was a soft sound from the east room door, and Ye Anyian opened the door curtain and walked out.

　　His long hair was half tied up and half loose, and his fair skin looked even more radiant against the bright red wedding dress. Even the light red pregnancy mole at the end of his eye looked a little brighter.

　　Jiang Zhu stood outside in the main room and felt that the originally dark room suddenly became bright.

　　"It looks good." He praised, "As expected, red is the most flattering color."

　　In fact, with Ye Anian's appearance, he would even look good in a sack.

　　"That's good." Ye Anyian pursed his lips and said softly, "As long as it's worth the money you spent."

　　"It's worth all the money I give you." Jiang Zhu said, stepping forward to help him tidy up his clothes, "I'll tie your hair tomorrow morning."

　　Ye Annian is so good-looking that she doesn't need to put on makeup, just apply some powder on her face to moisturize her face.

　　"Yes." Ye Annian responded, feeling a little uncomfortable as he turned around and went into the house to change out of his clothes.

　　But I heard Fu Zai behind me exclaim: "Brother, don't take off your clothes, show me!"

　　Ye Anyian had no choice but to turn around and come back.

　　Seeing that Fu Zai's golden rooster was independent and standing on one foot, he wanted to go forward and pick Fu Zai up, but he didn't want Fu Zai to be supported by Ding Qiu and kept hiding behind him.

　　"Don't hug me," Fu Zai pouted, "Brother is so beautiful, he will stain his clothes."

　　"No." Ye Anyian walked forward and squatted down in front of the two children, "You can touch it."

　　Fu Zai immediately stretched out his little hand out of curiosity to touch the embroidered pattern on Ye Anyian's wedding dress, and exclaimed: "It's so beautiful!"

　　"The threads are also bright, and there are little pearls!"

　　"Brother, it looks much, much better than your previous wedding dress!"

　　Ye Anyian pinched his little face: "That's natural."

　　Ding Qiu couldn't see it with his eyes, but the child's curiosity was there. After getting Ye Anian's permission, he carefully touched his sleeve.

　　He only felt a soft touch on his hands, and the embroidered areas were densely stitched. He gently outlined the shape of the pattern with his fingers and said, "This seems... to be an auspicious pattern."

　　"Yes." Ye Anyian grabbed his hand and traced it on his cuff, "Your perception is very keen."

Ding Qiu smiled sheepishly: "After losing vision, other senses slowly became sharper."

　　"The eyes will be cured." Ye Annian comforted him, "When your eyes heal, you will be able to see everything."

　　"Then I'll work harder." Jiang Zhu said on the side, patting the two children on the shoulders, "Now, you two go back to the West Room to play. We will have lunch later. There are still many things to prepare for in the afternoon. "

　　In the afternoon, all the people who came to help arrived. Those who set the tables and those who set the pots were very busy.

　　Ye Annian was afraid that too many people would touch the two children, so he locked Fu Zai, Ding Qiu and Tong Qian in the west room to play in the afternoon.

　　Many people came to the house all of a sudden, and they were busy until it got dark before they left one after another.

　　Since he had to get up early tomorrow, the evening meal was relatively simple. Jiang Zhu made hand-rolled noodles, deep-fried egg sauce, shredded cucumbers and mixed them together to eat.

　　It was early to eat today. After the two of them cleared away the dishes, tables and stools, it was still daylight. Jiang Zhu finished acupuncture for Ye Anian, drank the medicine, and settled the two children. The two of them got on the kang early. After all, they were going to be there tomorrow. Get up early.

　　As a result, the two of them lay in their respective beds, but neither could fall asleep.

　　Ye Annian stared at the dark roof above his head, his eyes flickering, unable to fall asleep no matter what.

　　Whether it was in his previous life or in this life, this was his first time getting married, and it was with a man.

　　If he had put it in the past, he would have felt ridiculous just thinking about it, but now, he could actually accept it calmly.

　　There was even a hint of...expectation.

　　Well, he raised his hand and pinched his eyebrows to suppress this thought.

　　Go to sleep, what do you expect? It's just an agreement to get married, not a real life.

　　Thinking this way, he pulled the quilt, turned over, and turned his back to Jiang Zhu.

　　Jiang Zhu's voice suddenly came from behind him: "Can't you sleep?"

　　Ye Anyian didn't want to pay attention to him, but after pretending to be asleep for a while, he couldn't help it and said "Yeah".

　　"Then let's talk." Jiang Zhu said.

　　"Your ears will no longer need acupuncture in two or three days. How have you been feeling these two days? Are they much better than before?"

　　"It's much clearer than before," Ye Anyian replied, "You can also hear some small sounds."

　　"That's good. However, although your cough no longer occurs, you are weak and have poor health. If you catch a cold or blow in the wind, it will still arouse you."

　　"I will pay attention." Ye Anyian said softly, "These days, you have been troubled."

　　There was a sudden weight on his shoulders, followed by a burst of warmth, and Jiang Zhu put his hand on his shoulders.

　　For some reason, Ye Annian's breath suffocated and his heart beat uncontrollably faster.

　　But Jiang Zhu just patted him gently and then covered him with the quilt.

　　"You are also very caring about this family." Jiang Zhu said, "Annian, if we get married tomorrow, we will be a real family."

"Between a family, you don't need to be so polite. You can also be more relaxed and willful with me."

　　Ye Annian felt that his breath was very hot, blowing gently on his ears and neck, tickling him, but the words he said made his cheeks, neck, and even the tips of his ears burn.

Fortunately, there were no candles lit in the room and the light was very dark. Jiang Zhu could not see the expression on his face clearly.

　　His heart was beating wildly, and Ye Anyian felt that his breathing was messed up. He moved his lips, but his mind was blank, and he didn't know what to say.

　　Fortunately, Jiang Zhu didn't wait for his response. She covered him with the quilt and got up and returned to her side.

　　After a while, Ye Anian heard Jiang Zhu whisper in the darkness: "Go to sleep, don't stay in bed tomorrow morning."

　　I don't know if it was because he had something on his mind, but he slept very lightly that night. He heard Jiang Zhu's voice getting up at five o'clock in the morning, and he woke up too.

　　He was about to get up, but Jiang Zhu pushed him back: "It's still early to sleep a little longer."

　　Although it is summer, Yueya Village is close to the mountains, so it is still quite cool in the morning.

　　"Can't sleep anymore," Ye Anyian said.

　　When he said this, Jiang Zhu didn't force him anymore and just asked him to wear more clothes.

　　The two children in the west room were still asleep. Jiang Zhu lit the stove and cooked rice porridge, eggs and corn in the pot, and ate a simple meal in the morning.

　　Then he pulled Ye Anyian to sit down on the chair and began to tie his hair.

　　In fact, he didn't know how to do this before, but after he picked up Ding Qiu, he gradually became able to do it.

　　He learned most of the things about taking care of people from Ding Qiu.

　　The wooden comb spontaneously moved up and down smoothly. Jiang Zhu helped Ye Annian comb his long hair open and smooth, and then pulled it into a crown on the top of his head.

　　He also took out the two jasper hairpins he bought last time in Tianshui Town. One was in the shape of green bamboo, and the other was in the Ruyi pattern.

　　He inserted the green bamboo-style hairpin into Ye Anyian's hair crown, and then put the wishful pattern hairpin on his head.

　　Ye Anian sat quietly at first. After feeling something on his head, he raised his hand and touched it.

　　"Why is there still a hairpin?"

　　Jiang Zhu took off the bronze mirror placed on the corner cabinet and handed it to Ye Anyian: "I saw it when I went to town before. I thought it looked good on you, so I bought it."

　　Ye Annian used the dim candlelight at his hand to see himself in the bronze mirror. His face was like a crown of jade, his eyes were bright and his teeth were bright. His lips were tightly pursed, giving him a somewhat cold look.

　　He lowered his head slightly and saw the jade hairpin in his hair crown. It was green and translucent, making his face even more radiant.

　　It's really nice, but probably not cheap either.

　　Jiang Zhu stood behind him, put his hands on his shoulders, and looked at him from the bronze mirror: "Quickly change your clothes, Zhao Lizheng and the others will be here later."

　　"Okay." Ye Anyian responded.

After Jiang Zhu finished speaking, he went out to the main room to bring out the hot food in the pot, and then went to the west room to wake up the two children.

　　Fu Zai and Ding Qiu had also woken up. They had even put on their own clothes and no one had to worry about them at all.

　　After washing up, the four of them simply ate something to fill their bellies, when someone knocked on the fence door outside.

　　Jiang Zhu asked Ye Anian to go to the west room and stay with the two children. He got up and opened the door.

　　Ye Annian took advantage of this moment to comb Fuzai and Ding Qiu's hair and tie them with flowers with red silk ribbons.

　　The bow around Copper Coin's neck was also tied up again. He looked beaming with joy, and the whole dog was very energetic.

　　In the courtyard, Jiang Zhu opened the door, and Zhao Le stood outside with Shitou, holding a basket covered with red cloth.

　　Seeing Jiang Zhu, Zhao Le said: "Mr. Jiang, Shitou and I are here to help first, and my father and the others will arrive soon."

　　"Where are Brother Nian, Ding Qiu, Fu Zai and the others?"
