Chapter 99 But I Won’t Have a Partner

The master was very cold to him at first, but after he fell ill, it was the little Bai Naihan who called the village doctor to save his life, and the master's attitude towards him became much better.

Sometimes he would teach the man some carving techniques, especially when he saw that he was learning seriously, the master taught him more.

It's just a pity that these patterns are not valuable now. Even if the villagers make furniture, they only make the simplest and cheapest ones. They have to pay extra for carving these patterns, which are not practical at all, so they are naturally unwilling to make expensive ones.

Therefore, even if Bai Naihan learned very well, it would be difficult to make money from this kind of woodworking, and he could only make a living.

Later, because of poor health and poor food and accommodation, the master fell seriously ill and could not be saved. Bai Naihan refused to be a carpenter in the future because of this, thinking that there was no future.

Therefore, he later found another way to join the army, because as long as he dared to fight, being a soldier would allow a poor rural kid like him to fight for a way out.

But in the man's heart, the old master has always been his master. As long as he is in the village, he will always go to see him every year during the worship.

Yun Qinghuan heard him say this and saw his gloomy look, and she didn't know what to say for a while.

She had heard a lot of things about this era in her previous life, and she could only say that the old master was born at the wrong time.

He comforted dryly, "If the old master knew that you are so good at carving now, he would definitely be pleased. Don't be sad. He has gone to another world to enjoy himself.

Bai Naihan smiled, "If he knew that I am not doing carpentry now, I am afraid he would be so angry that he would crawl out of the coffin and scold me to death. "

"Don't worry, I'm fine. I have thought it through myself over the years. "

He did not feel sorry for the master. After all, people always have to make a living. At the beginning, he also treated the master as a relative, and thought of leaving a portion of delicious food for him.

After looking at the desk, Yun Qinghuan thought about moving the desk to her room. Originally, there was a table in the room, but it was too high and square, so she planned to move it to the side to store sundries. Anyway, the room was not too small.

It’s just that this desk is a bit big, and it’s not easy for her to lift it alone. Although Bai Naihan has stood up now, he is still on crutches after all, so he certainly can’t do such heavy work. Be careful not to hurt his legs again.

She could only run out to find Liu Yuzhi. Fortunately, Liu Yuzhi had already washed the pots and bowls, so she was fine now. When she heard that Bai Naihan made a desk for his daughter-in-law, she was very happy, "When did this kid become so sensible? I didn’t see him take the initiative to make one for me? ”

Usually, Liu Yuzhi would tell him that the house was missing some furniture and ask someone to make it for him when she saw that he was idle.

Otherwise, don’t even think about waiting for him to think of what he needed on his own initiative.

Yun Qinghuan laughed, “I saw that Naihan was good at carpentry, so I asked him if he could make a desk for me.”

The desk was made of solid wood and had some weight, so she and her mother-in-law moved it to the room together, tidied it up, and put all the books in the drawer under the desk.

Then she went to the yard to fetch water and prepared to wash.

There was no need to boil water, just fetch a bucket of well water in a wooden bucket in the morning and put it in the yard to dry. By noon, the water would be warm, after all, it was really hot that day.

She scooped a basin of water and was about to go into the house, but she didn’t expect her brother-in-law to come out of the house and run straight to her.

Yun Qinghuan put the basin on the chair and looked at him with a smile, “What’s wrong? Is there something wrong? "

Just now he was hesitant to speak.

The man pursed his lips, and slowly stretched out his hands behind his back, holding a beautiful red box.

Yun Qinghuan was surprised, "Is this... for me?"

The man nodded, "Yes, sister-in-law, do you like it?"

"What is it? The packaging is so beautiful? "

Yun Qinghuan took it curiously. She thought it was just a small ornament that girls liked. If it was not expensive, she would just accept it. But she didn't expect that a dazzling light flashed when she opened it, especially when the sun shone, the light was even brighter, and it was so beautiful. It turned out to be a watch inlaid with fine diamonds!

It was particularly delicate and beautiful, and you could tell at a glance that it was a watch specially worn by women.

This watch looked very familiar to her. She saw it in the mall when she went to the county town a few days ago. At that time, she liked this watch at first sight. After all, it was really beautiful, finely made, and very small. She didn't like watches that were too bulky.

Who knew that when she asked the price, it turned out to be 160 yuan, which was extremely expensive. She couldn't afford this watch even if she took out all her belongings. She could only take a regretful look and choose a watch.

She didn't expect that the man would notice that she liked this watch so carefully. So, did he go to the mall to buy this watch later?

She felt warm in her heart, but she waved her hand to refuse, "I can't accept this watch. It's too expensive! "

"You can return it to the mall next time, or you can prepare to give it to your girlfriend in the future. Anyway, I can't take it."

Yun Qinghuan returned the watch to him.

She knew that he would receive compensation after retirement, and he had been a soldier for so many years. He would definitely not send all his allowances to Liu Yuzhi every month. He must have savings, but even if he had savings, this watch worth more than 100 yuan would definitely be a big expense for him.

Yun Qinghuan couldn't accept this watch. It was too expensive. She was afraid that she would not be able to pay it back in the future.

The man was staring at her with light in his eyes, especially when he saw the joy in her eyes when she saw the watch. He pursed his lips and raised his eyebrows. However, before the upward arc was raised, his smile froze.

Looking at the watch that was returned to him, his eyes became silent, "It can't be returned."

"Then give it to your future partner."

According to the speed of his leg recovery, he should not be disabled or lame. If he is like in the original book, he will probably work in a steel factory. Then he is the one with a golden rice bowl in the mouth of others. It is still easy to find a partner. Moreover, he doesn't look like he is deeply in love with Xia Yuhua, so he should not be lonely like in the original book.

"But I won't have a partner." The man pursed his lips, handed the watch to her again, and said seriously, "Sister-in-law, I won't have a partner again. This watch is bought for you and will not be in the hands of other women."

"If you really don't like it, throw it away."

He was quite strong. After saying that, he didn't wait for Yun Qinghuan to react. He turned around and walked into the house with a cane.

With a "bang", even the door was closed.

Yun Qinghuan was stunned for a long time before reacting. He lowered his head and glanced at the watch in his hand with a complicated look.

Is Bai Naihan angry?

This was the first time he did this in front of her, Yun Qinghuan was a little uncomfortable.

She pursed her lips, put the watch away, turned around to get the basin, and who knew that she would meet her mother-in-law's eyes as soon as she turned around.

At that moment, for some reason, she felt weak in her heart and subconsciously wanted to hide the watch box behind her.
