Peaceful Farm Life

Chapter 1280: Chapter 1281: Matryoshka

Xiao Changyi was the first to enter An Jing’s tent.

As soon as he entered, Xiao Changyi extended his hand towards An Jing.

An Jing followed inside and saw Xiao Changyi reaching out his hand to her. She felt both amused and sweet at the same time, but still placed her hand into Xiao Changyi’s and let him lead her.

Xiao Changyi held An Jing’s hand and sat her down.

An Jing sat very close to Xiao Changyi, then leaned into his embrace, while Xiao Changyi was holding her left hand with one and wrapping the other arm around her.

”My husband,” An Jing looked up with a smiling face, eyes twinkling, ”You’re so good, I don’t even know how to describe you anymore.”

Xiao Changyi said: ”You’re also good.”

An Jing simply hugged Xiao Changyi’s waist, ”But I think you’re the best. So much better than me.”

”In my heart, you’re also the best, much better than me,” Xiao Changyi gazed deeply at her. Every word and every sentence was without any falsehood.

An Jing stopped talking and just lifted her head, smiling straight at Xiao Changyi while lying in his arms.

Xiao Changyi let her smile, loving to see her smiling; she was as dazzling and radiant as the sunshine.

While watching her, he lowered his head and kissed her widely grinning lips.

An Jing responded gently.

The two did not deepen the kiss, keeping it light and restrained.

After the kiss, An Jing straightforwardly released her hug around Xiao Changyi, turned around, and lay down with her head on Xiao Changyi’s legs.

In this position, Xiao Changyi couldn’t hold her anymore.

However, Xiao Changyi began to play with her hair instead.

An Jing didn’t stop him, and while smilingly watching her dear husband, she asked: ”My husband, the nesting dolls that I asked you to have made last night, have they been made?”

Xiao Changyi said: ”The sketches you drew were given to Meng Zhuqing. Meng Zhuqing went out of the camp early in the morning to find a skillful craftsman to make them. The craftsman said it could be done but that it will take some time. Mainly because coloring will require quite a lot of it.”

”Then roughly how long will it take to finish?”

”The craftsman said he’d try his best to finish within a month.”

An Jing nodded, indicating that she understood. Then with sparkling eyes she said: ”I love dismantling nesting dolls, a large one containing a smaller one, and inside the small one, there’s an even smaller doll, and inside that one, an even tinier doll... The set I have asked to be made this time includes eleven smaller dolls inside a big one, with the smallest doll being really tiny, and also what I consider the cutest. It feels so exquisite and delicate. If the children saw them, they would definitely be very happy.”

She was now in the military camp and rarely saw her four children, truly feeling she owed them. She could only occasionally create new toys for the children to play with, to make up for it as much as possible for her four kids.

”Whatever you give them, the kids will certainly be happy about it.”

An Jing immediately asked: ”Then should I also give you a gift?”

Xiao Changyi blurted out: ”Your well-being every day is the best gift to me.” She was currently training new recruits. To be honest, he was always on edge, worried that she might get hurt or have an accident.

In an instant, An Jing felt like she was immersed in a jar of honey, finding it so sweet and blissful. After a sweet and happy gaze at her dear husband for a while, she finally said: ”But I want you to give me a gift.”

”What gift would you like?”

An Jing just smiled, and after a while, she said: ”I’ll tell you tonight.”

Xiao Changyi did not ask further.

When dusk was about to fall, Ye Zhi came to find An Jing, saying that the roasted whole lamb was ready and they could eat meat and drink wine. Then, An Jing went with Ye Zhi to the dining hall, joining the ten new recruits in a joyful feast.
