Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Jiang Danhe was not around, Xiaoguo still didn’t have to do anything because Qin Anming took leave to come back and take care of her.
After asking, she found out that Jiang Danhe had gone to the noodle shop to ask for help from her brother before he left.
Qin Anming smiled and said, “When it comes to taking care of my little sister, you don’t have to ask, I’ll come running to help her myself.”
Ever since Xiaoguo got pregnant, she felt like she was on an emotional roller-coaster. Hearing his words, tears welled up in her eyes. “You’re so good to me, Brother…”
“I’m your brother, that’s why.”
Qin Anming felt that a brother was like a father figure, therefore it was his duty to take care of his only family and sister.
Xiaoguo blinked and felt a lump in her throat. “Then I’ll be your older sister in my next life and take care of you!”
…..
Qin Anming was amused when he heard that. He knocked her on the head and said dotingly, “Okay, I’ll be your younger brother.”
They looked at each other and exchanged smiles.
Xiaoguo felt that she was truly blessed. As an only child, she had always envied those who had siblings. She always dreamed of having a brother or sister, but she didn’t feel comfortable telling her parents about it. Her parents also had no plans for a second child, so she lived as the only child of the Qin family for over 20 years.
In high school, there was a time when she was bullied by an unfamiliar girl from another school because of her distinctive looks. At that time, she thought that if she had a brother or sister, they would definitely help her seek revenge.
However, the reality was that she had no siblings and no best friends. She didn’t like interacting with other kids in school, and that earned her the label of being a loner…
At the thought of this, Xiaoguo’s heart skipped a beat. She looked at Qin Anming and asked, “Brother, if I were bullied, would you help me beat the bullies up?”
“Of course!”
Qin Anming didn’t hesitate at all. “Regardless of gender, I’ll definitely beat up the bullies until they beg for mercy!”
As he spoke, he showed off the biceps he had recently acquired from his training. Although they were not as big as Jiang Danhe’s, they were definitely more prominent than before.
A look of realization appeared on Xiaoguo’s face.
Suppressing the tears that were welling up in her eyes, Xiaoguo exclaimed loudly each time Qin Anming struck a pose.
Qin Anming knew that the other party was deliberately flattering him, but since he could make her laugh, it was fine with him.
With this thought in mind, Qin Anming became more and more enthusiastic with his poses, and he began to show off even more moves, possibly more than those bodybuilders who displayed their moves in the competitions.
Xiaoguo was only responsible for clapping and laughing.
Jiang Danhe didn’t keep Xiaoguo waiting for long. He returned within a month.
Perhaps due to the arduous journey, he looked totally exhausted. He didn’t even have time to shave.
Even so, there was a sparkle in his eyes. When he saw Xiaoguo, the obvious joy on his face was heartwarming.
“This time, I can witness the birth of our second child.”
As soon as they met, Jiang Danhe couldn’t wait to share the news with her. Although the process of getting this long vacation wasn’t very beautiful, it didn’t matter as long as the outcome was good.
Xiaoguo looked up at him in surprise. Her eyes were sparkling. “Really?”
“Really!”
Looking at her happy face, Jiang Danhe couldn’t care about anything else. With an itchy throat, he kissed her on the spot without any hesitation.
All the hardships he had suffered along the way had disappeared at this moment. Everything was worth it!
After kissing her, he quickly squatted down and leaned his head on her stomach in case Xiaoguo tried to pinch him. With a soft voice, he said, “My dear child, do you miss me?”
Looking at his childish demeanor, Xiaoguo couldn’t help but laugh. She punched him gently with her small fist. “What a silly man.”
Jiang Danhe had returned at the right time. Everyone in the village was digging in the fields. With abundant rainfall this year, the harvested crops were bound to be good.
Although Xiaoguo wanted to help out in the fields, Jiang Danhe wouldn’t let her due to her heavily pregnant belly. After begging for a long time, Jiang Danhe reluctantly agreed to let her deliver his meals to him.
Qin Anming returned to the county not long after Jiang Danhe returned home. He wanted to come back and help, but Jiang Danhe rejected him. This was not an urgent matter. He could handle it alone. Besides, he was hardly around to help out at home. Now that there was such an opportunity, he had to work extra hard.
Qin Anming thought that it made sense too. If his brother-in-law wanted to show off his ability, as his brother-in-law, he shouldn’t interfere.
Xiaoguo had not cooked for a long time. To be precise, it had been more than four months since she last touched the kitchen utensils.
She wasn’t completely unfamiliar with it, but she only felt a bit clumsy and flustered while preparing the dishes.
When the oil was poured into the dish, she realized that the fire had not been lit. When the dishes were served, she realized that she had forgotten to add salt.
However, those were only small issues. The dishes that she whipped up still turned out to be delicious.
Xiaoguo carefully packed the cooked food in the basket and smiled happily to herself.
Thinking about Jiang Danhe who was waiting for her to deliver food to him in the fields, Xiaoguo couldn’t help but smile. She never thought that she would experience the joy of being a wife too.
As soon as she left the house, she bumped into Mrs. Yang, who was also delivering food to the fields. The two of them chatted and laughed as they walked towards the fields.
Although there was sufficient rainfall this year, the temperature was also higher than usual. It’s best to finish planting the crops as soon as possible.
More than half of the villagers were sitting in the fields eating their lunch, with no intention of going home. After finishing their meal, they quickly got back to work, hoping to finish planting all the crops before returning home to rest.
When they reached the fields, Xiaoguo parted ways with Mrs. Yang. The location of her plot was rather remote, so she had to walk further in.
Xiaoguo was overjoyed when she spotted Jiang Danhe working in the fields. She took out a handkerchief and got ready to wipe his sweat.
When Jiang Danhe footsteps behind him, he turned around and realized that it was Xiaoguo. In that instant, he relaxed and put down the hoe before striding forward to take the basket from her.
“How is it? Are you tired?”
Jiang Danhe asked considerately, but his hands did not stop moving. He took off his coat and laid it on a clean and flat piece of ground. Then he carefully helped her sit down and skillfully massaged her calves.
“I’m not tired.” Xiaoguo smiled. He was clearly more tired than her, but he still asked her if she was tired. It made her happy, but at the same time, she couldn’t help but feel sorry for him. “What about you? Maybe we should go home and rest.”
It was a hot day today and Jiang Danhe’s tanned skin looked a little red at this moment. Bean-sized droplets of perspiration trickled down from his forehead, along his temples, to his well-defined jawline, before finally dropping onto the ground.
Xiaoguo’s eyes were suddenly dazzled. Feeling tempted, she raised her hand and carefully wiped the sweat off his face with a handkerchief, her eyes filled with unprecedented concentration.
Jiang Danhe was enjoying the attention that Xiaoguo was giving him. At this moment, he felt like he was floating on a cloud. While enjoying his wife’s tenderness, he told her, “I’m not tired. I will finish planting soon.”
“Then Hl stay here with you,” Xiaoguo said without thinking.
Jiang Danhe was about to shake his head, but seeing her look of concern, he nodded and said, “Okay.”
At most, he would try to work faster and minimize Xiaoguo’s exposure to the sun.
Seeing him nod, Xiaoguo narrowed her eyes and smiled happily.
During her pregnancy, Xiaoguo had gained some weight. She was becoming more adorable, more smiley and more lovable.
This was how Xiaoguo appeared in Jiang Danhe’s eyes, making her all the more precious to him.
“Hurry up and eat.”
Xiaoguo pulled his hand and led him to sit down. She took out the two dishes and soup she had prepared and also washed a bunch of grapes for him.
“Hmm… My wife’s culinary skills are still amazing.”
When Jiang Danhe was with Xiaoguo, he could sweet-talk her at the drop of a hat.
At first, Xiaoguo was a little embarrassed by his behavior. Now that she had gotten used to it, she was able to respond to his teasing.
“Of course!”
She didn’t try to be humble at all, in fact, she felt a little smug.
Jiang Danhe loved it so much!
The couple finished their lunch happily. After putting away his bowl and chopsticks in the basket, Jiang Danhe was about to carry his hoe and return to the fields when he was stopped by Xiaoguo.
“What’s wrong, sweetheart?”
