Being praised is, of course, quite delightful.
Especially when the two of them are being so sweet and affectionate. Gu Qiaoqiao turned her head slightly, looked up at the handso face of the man behind her, blinked her eyes playfully, and asked, "Is it really the most beautiful lody?"
Qin Yize nodded seriously, "Yes, an incomparable sound, there’s nothing more wonderful in the world. I’m very proud and honored that you are my wife."
Gu Qiaoqiao bead with happiness, her smile radiant and bright.
Then Qin Yize suddenly thought of sothing and said, "Let’s take a lap around the ranch. Oh, by the way, Qiaoqiao, the ranch doesn’t have a na yet, do you have any ideas on what to call it?"
He wants her to na it?
Gu Qiaoqiao blinked, and at this mont Qin Yize adjusted their direction, urging the horse along the outer edge of a fence.
The little white horse, Yun Duo, trotted alongside.
Gu Qiaoqiao contemplated for a mont.
Blue Sky Ranch... Grassland Ranch...
They seed a bit too ordinary.
Gu Qiaoqiao stopped thinking, and said crisply, "Ah Ze, I don’t know what to call this ranch, you na it."
Qin Yize pondered for a bit, then said, "Let’s take the last characters of both our nas."
"Using our nas?" Gu Qiaoqiao asked in return.
Qin Yize nodded, "Let’s call it Qiaoze Ranch."
Qiaoze Ranch!
Indeed, this na sounds really nice.
There are trees here, a lake, and a grassland.
It really fits.
"Alright, this place will be called Qiaoze Ranch then..." Gu Qiaoqiao said joyfully.
Qin Yize nodded gently, looked down at the young girl in his arms, and asked leisurely, "Qiaoqiao, who gave you your na?"
This was indeed the first ti Qin Yize had asked this question.
Gu Qiaoqiao’s eyes dimd a bit, she took a deep breath, and said softly, "It was Grandpa who gave the na. My dad said that when I was born, my grandpa was very happy. He said in the north there’s Qiao Song, in the south there’s Qiao Mu, so my eldest granddaughter shall be called Qiaoqiao."
Qin Yize held Gu Qiaoqiao a little tighter, and said in a low voice, "Qiaoqiao, your na is beautiful, I never expected it to have such a story behind it. Grandpa Gu has a profound cultural heritage, your beautiful calligraphy has expertly inherited Grandpa Gu’s style."
Gu Qiaoqiao smiled proudly, "That’s true, even Great Grandpa Qin couldn’t stop praising my calligraphy."
Nowadays, there aren’t many girls who can write such beautiful calligraphy like her.
Qin Yize smiled, affectionately kissed Gu Qiaoqiao on the cheek.
Still feeling that it wasn’t enough to express his love for Qiaoqiao, he pressed his face tightly against hers, their breaths mingling instantly.
With just a look up, Gu Qiaoqiao could see Qin Yize’s long curled eyelashes. It seed like she was noticing them for the first ti, and she widened her eyes in surprise, raising her voice, "Ah Ze, how can a man have such long eyelashes?"
Qin Yize agreed nonchalantly, "Really?"
With the soft fragrance in his arms, he certainly wanted to spur his horse and return to their Mongolian yurt...
It seed that only through such actions could he express his deep oceanic love for Qiaoqiao.
Only like this, he was absolutely sure that Qiaoqiao was his.
Such a wonderful Qiaoqiao, he wouldn’t let go of her hand.
Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t know the thoughts running through the man’s mind, considering even the next lifeti, she nodded, "Yes, your lashes are indeed long, don’t you know that?"
Qin Yize curved his lips, "How would a man like pay attention to his own eyelashes?"
Then recalling sothing, he whispered in Qiaoqiao’s ear, "Do you like it?"
Gu Qiaoqiao’s heart skipped a beat, she gave him a glare, didn’t answer directly, but avoided him, complaining, "Talking like this, it tickles..."
Qin Yize laughed heartily.
He stopped teasing her, and pointed ahead, "Qiaoqiao, this is the eastern boundary."
Then turned around the corner of the fence and continued moving forward.
After this round, it took more than two hours.
This ranch is really big, right, now it has a na, called Qiaoze Ranch.
Thinking about it, Gu Qiaoqiao rembered sothing else, "Ah Ze, after we leave, will this ranch just stay empty?"
Then Gu Qiaoqiao looked at the horse she was on, and the little white horse beside her, "What about Red Wind and Yun Duo? Can they co back with us to the Imperial Capital?"
Qin Yize looked into the distance and said in a low voice, "We can’t take Red Wind and Yun Duo with us this ti."
"Then should we just leave these two horses at Qiaoze Ranch? Won’t they run away?" Gu Qiaoqiao asked worriedly.
"No, they won’t." Qin Yize said softly, "I’ll have them temporarily fostered at a nearby cavalry camp."
"Wasn’t it said that it’s been reorganized?"
"It has, but there’s still a need for soone to stay behind to guard the materials and do a thorough handover when the new troops arrive. This would take roughly a year, by then we can figure sothing out."
Gu Qiaoqiao felt a little relieved.
Qin Yize only recently learned about this ranch, which disrupted so of his original plans.
So, all plans had to be redrawn, and the ti was urgent, he had to complete them as quickly as possible.
Taming the wild horse was also beyond his original plan, initially, he thought of borrowing a few horses from the nearby ranch.
Returning them after their departure would have been a convenient matter.
However, while they were transporting supplies to the ranch, they discovered this strong and tall chestnut horse on a hillside.
The cavalry camp comrades told him that this chestnut horse had a particularly fiery temperant. They had tried to catch it with a lasso before, but it was very cunning, escaping multiple tis. Being the leader of wild horses made it even more difficult to ta.
Added to that, the directives from above had arrived, and the cavalry camp needed restructuring, so they had to put it aside, which was quite regrettable.
The person who ntioned this was the camp leader, also an old comrade of his.
The speaker had no intention, but the listener had a thought.
Qin Yize was intrigued.
With his quick reflexes, high combat power, and a natural authoritative presence,
he easily tad the wild horse.
He spent a few hours on it before riding it to et Qiaoqiao.
Unexpectedly, Red Wind brought with it a little white horse, which was unforeseen. So, he decided to temporarily keep them at a friend’s ranch.
