Peaceful Farm Life

Chapter 797: Chapter 798: She’ll Just Have One Small Cup_1

Because An Jing got promoted, Wang Youbao, Shi Xiaolan, and Li Wuyu all came to congratulate him.

Shi Xiaolan and Wu Xiaoshan came first; after offering their congratulations, they left; and not long after they had gone, Wang Youbao and Li Wuyu arrived.

”Master, you’re really amazing, not only did you become an official, now you’ve been promoted!” Li Wuyu looked at An Jing with genuine admiration in his eyes.

Wang Youbao was also full of admiration, and he said with a smile, ”Congratulations, Master, on your joyous promotion. This time, you and Master Dad should hold a feast to celebrate, right?”

When An Jing had been appointed as a Seventh Rank Farmer Knight last time, he didn’t hold a celebratory feast, which he found very puzzling.

Who doesn’t throw a few tables of celebration when they become an official? Yet his wife, this master, didn’t arrange even one table.

An Jing said, ”I won’t do it, I’m too lazy to deal with it.”

Again with being too lazy to deal with it...

Last time, she also said she was too lazy to deal with it, which is why there was no feast...

Wang Youbao fell silent for a moment, then enthusiastically said, ”How about this, when the time comes, I’ll help you greet the guests, Master, so you don’t have to deal with them... Master, what do you think? It would be good?” He was, after all, quite sociable.

But An Jing still disagreed: ”Let’s forget about it, I really don’t want to have any feast.”

She had joined the military before graduating from college, and stayed in the army until she sacrificed herself and arrived here; she had never been through the wringer of society, and since her comrades in the army were all brothers-in-arms, she hadn’t experienced much scheming or competition. Honestly, she was not skilled in socializing or hobnobbing.

She was also someone who didn’t particularly like trouble and avoided it whenever possible.

Now that she could avoid throwing the feast, she naturally would.

Then, An Jing said with a smile, ”I really can’t throw a feast, but I do intend to keep you for lunch. If you really want to take part in my promotion celebration, consider today’s lunch as my feast, how about that?”

Wang Youbao was at a loss for words, and also found it amusing. Why did he feel like she was treating her official position so casually?

It was such an honorable occasion, yet she...

Remembering how An Jing and Xiao Changyi never seemed to be much for fame and fortune, Wang Youbao let it go.

Li Wuyu laughed and nodded repeatedly: ”Great, great, today we not only get to stay for lunch with you, Master, but also drink your promotion wine.”

An Jing laughingly took the opportunity to say, ”Then you really must drink later, as we just happen to have a jar of wine that hasn’t been opened yet.”

Li Wuyu held up a finger and said with a mischievous smile and a hint of flattery, ”I’ll just drink one cup, and the rest can be for you and Master Dad to drink.”

An Jing replied, ”Your Master Dad and I will also only drink one cup each, the rest will be all for your Youbao to drink.”

”Master!” Li Wuyu felt both embarrassed and annoyed. Embarrassed because An Jing had so boldly stated that Wang Youbao was her Youbao; annoyed because An Jing intended to give the rest of the wine to her Youbao to drink.

Wang Youbao’s face also turned red because of An Jing’s teasing tone when she said ’your Youbao’.

An Jing, watching this young couple both blushing, sighed to herself thinking how thin-skinned they were.

However, she still teased, ”Wuyu, weren’t you quite thick-skinned before? How come you’re getting shy now that you’re married to your Youbao? Look at your red face, haha~”

Li Wuyu’s face turned even redder, ”Who asked you to say in front of my Youbao that he’s my Youbao!”

Hearing Li Wuyu call ’my Youbao’, Wang Youbao’s face turned even redder.

”So I shouldn’t say it in front of your Youbao, huh,” An Jing said, feigning a sudden realization.
