Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again-Chapter 1256: Making a Saddle by Hand
"Autumn?" Qin Yize murmured, "Alright, I’ll definitely come with you."
Gu Qiaoqiao waved her hand nonchalantly, "It’s fine, if you’re busy, I can come with Sister Xiao Wen."
Qin Yize stood up, half-seriously teased, "Is my Qiaoqiao disliking me now?"
Gu Qiaoqiao playfully punched Qin Yize’s solid chest and glared at him, "What do you mean disliking you? I’m just being understanding. You know you’re busy, and you might not have time then."
Qin Yize wrapped Gu Qiaoqiao in his arms, resting his chin on her hair, gently rubbing it as he softly and apologetically said, "Qiaoqiao, being with me has been really hard on you."
Gu Qiaoqiao nodded in his embrace and bluntly said, "Yeah, it’s really been hard, we barely spend any time together throughout the year."
"So, when the house is built, why don’t you move in? That way we can spend more time together," Qin Yize suggested.
If it were before, Gu Qiaoqiao might have hesitated, but they were already truly married, so there was no need to be coy. She readily agreed, "Sure, once the house is ready, I’ll move in."
After all, it’s not too far from Yubao Square, just over an hour’s drive, and it’s still in the same city.
Hearing Gu Qiaoqiao agree, Qin Yize happily kissed her face gently and said, "Qiaoqiao is the best, come on, let’s go to the warehouse, I’ll make a saddle for you."
He then took Gu Qiaoqiao’s hand and headed towards the ranch. It was already afternoon, and Gu Qiaoqiao tilted her head to look at Qin Yize and asked, "Aren’t you taking a nap?"
Qin Yize immediately stopped, his gaze burning, "Qiaoqiao, do you want to go back to sleep?"
Gu Qiaoqiao quickly shook her head, "I didn’t mean me, I meant you..."
"You want me to nap alone? Aren’t you tired?"
"Of course I’m not tired," Gu Qiaoqiao widened her eyes, feigning innocence.
Gu Qiaoqiao naturally understood what Qin Yize’s look meant, and she wasn’t foolish enough to go with him, otherwise, she probably wouldn’t get out of bed all afternoon.
Qin Yize had great stamina, and having just indulged, so once in bed, she’d find no peace.
Gu Qiaoqiao sneaked a glance at Qin Yize. He was wearing a white shirt, black riding pants, and black riding boots.
He stood tall and lean, exuding vitality effortlessly.
Alright, alright, stop thinking about it.
Gu Qiaoqiao felt a change within herself and quickly held Qin Yize’s hand saying, "Well, since you aren’t tired, make me a saddle then."
Qin Yize shook his head helplessly but understood that even if they took a nap together, he’d have to behave, as this little girl couldn’t handle his intensity.
But there was still the beautiful night waiting for him.
Thinking of this, Qin Yize cheerfully led Gu Qiaoqiao to the warehouse.
While nearby, Red Wind and Yun Duo, munching on grass, glanced at each other and leisurely followed behind the two owners.
The warehouse was built not far from the kitchen, surrounded by a bunch of shrubs, and now Gu Qiaoqiao finally had the time to take a good look at Qiaoze Ranch.
The place was truly vast.
The few buildings scattered like stars over the grassland, yet the grass around these buildings, unlike the hill’s tall ones, stood only a few centimeters high, comfortable to step on.
Roads didn’t matter either, as there were no bicycles.
But looking at the surrounding grass, uneven and either dark green or bright green, it seemed people had lived here years ago.
Yet within a year, it returned to its natural state.
No wonder the poem says, "The wildfire cannot destroy it, when spring breezes blow, it lives again."
The strongest vitality belongs to these wild grasses, which in turn nourish so many cattle, horses, sheep, and the local nomads.
The warehouse, constructed from wooden planks, lacked tiles; its roof was covered with rainproof tar paper.
Black in color, if scorched by the sun, it would emit an odor, although the sky here appeared close, it was actually far away and high up, the sun’s rays mild, even in summer.
Qin Yize surveyed the surroundings, pondered a bit, and slowly said, "Once I finish making the saddle for you, I’ll need to build a stable."
"I’ll help you," Gu Qiaoqiao cheerfully offered.
Qin Yize reached out, patted Gu Qiaoqiao on the head, praised, "What a good child."
Gu Qiaoqiao angrily punched Qin Yize, "Who are you calling a child?"
Qin Yize seized Gu Qiaoqiao’s hand, half-smiling, "Maybe I said it wrong, you’re a good wife."
Gu Qiaoqiao glared at him. The current Qin Yize was nothing like the Qin Yize she’d known before.
However, she liked the previous cold Qin Yize.
And she liked the current warm Qin Yize even more!
Whether cold as snow or warm as spring, he was her Ah Ze.
Nevertheless, Gu Qiaoqiao playfully pushed him away and then went into the warehouse first, while Qin Yize followed, slightly smiling.
Watching Qiaoqiao’s retreating figure, his heart filled with joy, this time was like scattered sunshine, lazily warm, making every cell in one’s body sing with happiness.
He felt that life couldn’t be happier than this.
The warehouse was spacious, with few things inside, making it seem very vast, but even so, Gu Qiaoqiao knew it held everything necessary.
In the corner lay some wood and a few carpentry tools, reminding Gu Qiaoqiao to ask, "Ah Ze, did you make the saddle on Red Wind?"
To her surprise, Qin Yize shook his head, "No, it was given to me by a comrade, I haven’t had time."
"Can you really make one?"
"Yes, I truly can." Qin Yize walked briskly to the corner, picked up a piece of wood, childishly raised his eyebrow, "Qiaoqiao, today I’ll show you my skills."
Gu Qiaoqiao burst out laughing.
This man had such a playful side.
She followed him, noticing several hides and blankets hanging on the warehouse wall.
Gu Qiaoqiao knew that Red Wind’s saddle was made from wood covered with leather, both simple and complex, depending on the maker.
Qin Yize sat on a small chair, bending his long legs, and offered a small chair next to him for Gu Qiaoqiao.
Gu Qiaoqiao sat down, resting her cheeks in her hands, watching Qin Yize work with great interest.
