Resisting the Wind and Splendor

Chapter 1015 Northern Frontier 12

Zisu was stunned for a long time.

After a long while, she rolled her eyes at him, but didn't refute him.

It seems there's no room for rebuttal.

Was it considered that she proposed? Sigh, it's a bit embarrassing.

"What did Liuyun say to you?" Jing Lei suddenly asked.

Zisu thought for a moment and shook her head: "He didn't say anything... It wasn't him who asked me to have dinner with him. Ever since we announced our marriage, he has been avoiding me."

"This guy……"

"What about you? Is he avoiding you too? Will our marriage affect the relationship between you brothers?"

Zisu stared at Jinglei's face, trying to notice the expression on his face.

But there was no extra expression on his face.

Seeing that she kept looking at him like that, Jing Lei smiled and asked, "Are you afraid I'll be unhappy?"

Zisu didn't know why, she had never thought so much before.

Since finalizing the marriage arrangements, it seems that he has indeed become much more preoccupied with other things.

"Don't think about it anymore, let's go take a look at the house together tomorrow."

……

The next morning, a thunderclap sounded.

Today he wore a dark green robe, a color that was surprisingly eye-catching.

Especially when standing in the sunlight, the gold threads on the crisp, dark fabric gleam, giving him a brighter and more cheerful appearance.

There's still some vitality in them.

"This robe was made for you when you first came to the Northern Frontier, but I've never seen you wear it."

It's been three years.

"This color is quite nice and suits you well. In the future, wear more brightly colored clothes; it will make you look more energetic."

Jing Lei nodded and said, "Alright, from now on, whatever my wife tells me to wear, I will wear. I will listen to you."

Zisu smiled at him.

The two left from the west wing of the Prince's Mansion.

Jing Lei bought a courtyard very close to the Prince's Mansion, also to make it convenient for Zi Su to come here.

Although his monthly salary was enough to support his young wife, Jing Lei knew that even after they got married, Zi Su would still return to the palace every day to take care of the young prince and his mistress.

The bond between Zisu and the princess will never change in this lifetime.

They're not sisters, but they're closer than blood sisters. Zisu definitely couldn't abandon the young prince and his wife.

Therefore, he specifically chose a house that was so close by.

Zisu was very satisfied with the house.

"Yesterday, Miss and I discussed renovating the courtyard of the house and planting more flowers and plants. In this way, the courtyard will be more vibrant in the spring."

In northern Xinjiang, you can hardly see any flowers or plants in winter.

Moreover, the winter season is exceptionally long, lasting for four or five months with almost no greenery.

When spring arrives and the area is enveloped in greenery, it feels refreshing and rejuvenating, creating a particularly pleasant atmosphere.

"And the backyard, Miss said, just like the one at the Prince's Mansion, is to plant many big trees. After all, in this place in the Northern Frontier, only big trees can really withstand the severe cold."

Flowers and plants are easily killed by the cold in winter, but large trees are not.

Flowers and plants can be changed frequently, but trees cannot, nor do they need to be.

“We’ve studied feng shui. Large trees shouldn’t be planted in the front yard on a large scale, as they block the sunlight and thus block the bright future of the homeowner. What do you think about concentrating all the trees in the back yard?”

As Zisu walked along, she didn't notice that the man behind her was just staring at her slender back, seemingly not listening to what she was saying.

When she came to her senses and realized that Jing Lei hadn't responded, she turned around and her eyes met his deepest gaze.

There lay a profound and complex place that she could not fathom.
