Chapter 460: Chapter 461, Wholehearted Dedication
Yun Jinnian flashed a faint smile, "What did he say?"
"He said, the one Sister made is different from Jiayu’s!"
Yun Jinnian laughed and finished mending the clothes.
The two of them were constantly coming and going, and their clothes and shoes wore out quickly. Yun Jinnian couldn’t make new ones fast enough, and they were reluctant to throw the old ones away, so they had to keep stitching and patching to keep wearing them. Fortunately, Yun Jinnian was skilled with needle and thread, so even the areas that were mended couldn’t be noticed by others, and they even seemed particularly unique.
"Sister Jiayu loves him, and he knows it!"
"Mhm, the little master is very clever. In the future, he will definitely be one of the most formidable figures in Tianchu Country!"
Yun Jinnian smiled.
She didn’t think about things too far in the future; for now, she was focused on how to let Tianci grow up carefree, able to learn skills without feeling bored.
"Sister, we’re back!"
Han Tianci ran into the house joyfully, his head covered in sweat and his body smelling of it.
"Go wash up quickly, the hot water is all ready. After you’ve washed up, come out and drink the soup. I’ve stewed a chicken soup with Snow Lotus for you!"
Although it was called Snow Lotus chicken soup, it was just a piece of Snow Lotus stewed with a chicken, along with some nourishing herbs.
"Thank you, Sister!" Han Tianci joyfully went off, while Shi Jiayu immediately went to prepare clothes for him.
Shi Jiayu hadn’t forgotten that Han Tianci was the first person to pity and sympathize with her.
So, the most important person in her heart was still Han Tianci.
Chu Yu stepped in, darkened from the sun and also thinner than before, his head covered in sweat and his body smelling of it.
"Everything has been taken care of. We’ll set off for the Capital City early tomorrow morning and will make sure to get you home before Mid-Autumn Festival. By the way, Jinfeng is also back in the Capital City. She sent a message saying she has a surprise for you, so be mentally prepared!"
Chu Yu rattled off so much, and although Yun Jinnian felt like laughing, she didn’t let it show, "Mhm, I understand. You go back to your room first. The hot water will be sent over soon, and your clothes are placed by the screen. After bathing, come out for the soup, and there are a few side dishes as well!"
Chu Yu nodded.
If Jinnian became his wife and treated him like this for a lifetime, his life would be complete.
Chu Yu didn’t understand why he had such a thought, but he knew he couldn’t lose Yun Jinnian, absolutely not.
"Then I’ll go first!" Chu Yu said, and with a smile, he stuffed a brocade box into Yun Jinnian’s arms and quickly left.
Yun Jinnian looked at the brocade box, the damp sweat, opened it to find a verdant Jade Hairpin, its luster sleek and obviously of the finest Imperial Green. The carving was exquisite, with Magnolia flowers about to bloom, lifelike in every detail.
She liked it very much.
Since she liked it, Yun Jinnian decided to redo her hair, using only this Jade Hairpin to hold it in place.
She also wanted to hint to Chu Yu, out of so many things in the world, good and bad, she wanted only him.
Just like this hairpin, among all the fine things, she would wear only this one.
Could you understand my heart?
After Chu Yu had bathed and came over, he saw that Yun Jinnian had redone her hair and was wearing the Jade Hairpin he gave her, which filled him with immense joy.
He thought of looking for more beautiful jade hairpins to give to Yun Jinnian.
After drinking a bowl of chicken soup, Chu Yu felt thoroughly content, wishing he could nestle in Yun Jinnian’s house forever, never leaving, doing nothing.
"Is everything packed?" Chu Yu asked,
"Mhm, I don’t have much, everything is already packed. We can leave as soon as we get up early tomorrow!" Yun Jinnian replied, glancing at Chu Yu, "Have you taken care of all your matters, Brother Chu?"
"All taken care of!"
