Peaceful Farm Life

Chapter 769: Chapter 770: Could It Be That He’s Also Interested in Her?_1

After the children had had their fill of the wooden horse, An Jing and Xiao Changyi lifted the four children onto the bamboo bed in the courtyard.

An Jing and Xiao Changyi played the rope-skipping game, which the four children watched with great interest. Each time An Jing and Xiao Changyi formed a new shape with the rope, the four children would excitedly clap their little hands, displaying an extremely happy demeanor.

Two hours passed unknowingly in this manner.

Wild Goose Jade still knelt steadfast, motionless with her back straight, exuding a cold and lofty air, her gaze unwaveringly firm.

Seeing Wild Goose Jade like that, An Jing didn’t say anything, just sighed softly. Although they hadn’t known each other long, she could tell that Wild Goose Jade was a very opinionated person.

Once she decided to do something, she would go all out.

Meng Zhuqing just stood by, watching, worried about Wild Goose Jade’s health as she knelt on the cold ground. Her body had not fully recovered. After hesitating for a while, Meng Zhuqing finally spoke softly, ”Miss, what our lady said is true, our master doesn’t take disciples. Even if you kneel to death, he won’t accept you.”

Wild Goose Jade didn’t say a word, nor did she even glance at Meng Zhuqing, but continued to kneel as before.

Besides the ’thank you’ uttered a few days earlier, Wild Goose Jade hadn’t spoken another word to him. Meng Zhuqing had grown accustomed to it, but still felt a bit awkward as his gaze shifted away from her, looking elsewhere, and it took him a while to regain his composure as a subordinate.

Four hours had passed, and Wild Goose Jade was still kneeling, her posture had not changed at all.

Xiao Changyi had already entered the kitchen to prepare lunch, with Su Yi Jing, Su Yixing and An Yiqing, the three little ones, following him into the kitchen. Every step Changyi took in the kitchen was followed by the three little ones toddling behind him, creating an incredibly cute and warm scene.

An Jing didn’t enter the kitchen but sat on the bamboo chair by the kitchen door, holding An Yiyun up, helping her to stand on the ground and learn to walk, while also watching the one large and three small figures inside the kitchen. Her heart felt unspeakably soft and full.

Her days with her husband were indeed blissful~

Catching a glimpse of Wild Goose Jade, still kneeling, from the corner of her eye, An Jing could only sigh inwardly.

Her husband was unwilling to take a disciple, and she certainly couldn’t force him to do so. Besides, this Wild Goose Jade had an unclear background, and it was unknown whether she was good or bad.

After An Jing and Xiao Changyi had their lunch, Wild Goose Jade was still kneeling in the courtyard, her posture unchanged, but her lips had turned somewhat pale, clearly demonstrating that her body was starting to give in.

Meng Zhuqing did not speak to Wild Goose Jade again. Instead, during An Jing and Changyi’s lunch, he silently brought some food and placed it in front of Wild Goose Jade, urging her to eat.

After a long wait, seeing that Wild Goose Jade did not even look at the food before her, evidently showing no intention of eating, Meng Zhuqing took the food away.

An Jing led the children out from the kitchen and happened to see the disheartened silhouette of Meng Zhuqing as he cleared the food away. She couldn’t help frowning. Could it be that Meng Zhuqing had feelings for Wild Goose Jade?

Although she suspected this, An Jing did not voice her question.

An Jing simply led the children over to where Wild Goose Jade was kneeling, and crouched down. Then, she once again tried to persuade her with a gentle voice, ”Your body has just recovered. Don’t overexert yourself to the point of collapsing. My husband really doesn’t take disciples.”

Wild Goose Jade firmly believed that where there’s a will, there’s a way. Therefore, she chose to continue kneeling, still intending not to rise until Xiao Changyi accepted her as his disciple.
