Chapter 669: Chapter 670: Extraordinary Significance_1

”Husband!” When An Jing saw Xiao Changyi come out, she wasn’t shy, and called out to him with a big smile. She then asked, ”Am I right in what I said?”

Xiao Changyi came over, wrapped his arm around her shoulders, and said, ”Right, but not comprehensive, you are also good to me.”

After a pause, he added, ”Very good, very good.”

An Jing’s smile was so wide that her eyes disappeared.

Seeing An Jing like this, Xiao Changyi lowered his head and affectionately rubbed his forehead against hers before saying, ”Alright, let’s eat.”

”Mm-hmm~”

Although talking about eating, before breakfast, An Jing specifically found a bamboo tube, filled it with water, inserted the flowers into the tube, and lastly, placed the tube on the desk in the inner chamber.

She treasured the flowers her husband had given her so much that An Jing couldn’t help but think of the time she had gifted him an axe for chopping wood as her dowry.

Her husband had also cherished it and treated it with great solemnity.

An Jing immediately burst into laughter, a snort of laughter escaping her.

”What’s the matter?” Xiao Changyi asked, not understanding.

An Jing said, ”Husband, do you still remember when I gave you an axe for chopping wood as my dowry?”

Without waiting for Xiao Changyi’s response, An Jing laughed again, ”Who would have thought that in the end, you would marry into my family, and I wouldn’t need to prepare any dowry at all.”

Xiao Changyi also curved his lips into a smile, ”I still have the thing.”

An Jing immediately said, ”I know, you treat it like a family heirloom now, keeping it so well. I see that you just put your Death Exemption Token anywhere, tell me the truth, are you really planning to pass on that axe to Jing’er and the others?”

As she spoke, An Jing found it so amusing that she burst into laughter again, ”Hahaha, when Jing’er and the others are old enough to understand, if they knew that our family’s heirloom was an axe, their expressions would probably be more spectacular than if they had been struck by lightning.”

However, Xiao Changyi didn’t laugh but spoke with great seriousness, ”I don’t plan to make it a family heirloom, I intend to use it as a burial item, for both of us.”

Together in life, together in death.

They had been together in life, and they would be buried in the same tomb after death. That axe was meaningful as it became his alongside her, and he would not pass it on to anyone; he planned to take it into the grave.

An Jing hadn’t expected Xiao Changyi to say this, at first she was stunned, then she reached out to hold Xiao Changyi’s hand.

After their hands were firmly intertwined, only then did she nod at Xiao Changyi with a smile, ”Yes, as a burial item, ours, we won’t bring anything else with us, just this one burial item.”

Xiao Changyi also nodded, ”Mmm.”

...

After breakfast, An Jing and Xiao Changyi had the four children sit in the courtyard while the two of them tended to the vegetable garden in the yard.

An Jing turned the soil in the vegetable garden with Xiao Changyi and chatted with him.

”Imperial Physician Jiang said children can be weaned between 10 and 12 months, and that it’s not good to wean them either too early or too late. Gong Juechen also said the same thing. Our kids are over nine months now, so after a while, we should slowly start weaning them.”

”Mmm.”

”Once the kids are weaned, the wet nurse won’t have to come every day.”

”Mmm.”

”Then we’ll have even more peace and quiet, don’t you think—” right?

An Jing hadn’t finished speaking when the sound of approaching horse hooves interrupted her, causing her to stop and then laugh, ”Husband, just as I said we’ll have more peace, someone comes to look for us. It seems we can’t have a quiet moment after all.”
