Peaceful Farm Life

Chapter 1478: Chapter 1479: I Feel Unequal in My Heart

That night, An Jing, Xiao Changyi, Ye Zhi, and Gong Juechen were having dinner together.

Du Aya happily ran over, saying that her matter with Qi Gaoda was settled; once they returned to the Capital, she and Qi Gaoda would get married.

An Jing: ”...”

Ye Zhi: ”...”

Xiao Changyi didn’t react at all and continued eating.

Gong Juechen felt directly resentful, looking at Ye Zhi with great grievance. Seeing this, Ye Zhi slapped Gong Juechen’s face, pushing his head to the other side to avoid such a resentful gaze.

An Jing dryly laughed twice before asking, ”A Ya, don’t you think this is a bit too fast?”

”Fast? We’re not getting married right away. It’s not fast.” Du Aya didn’t think it was fast at all.

”...” An Jing paused again before saying, ”It’s not about whether you’re getting married quickly, it’s about deciding, isn’t it too fast?”

Afraid that Du Aya might still not understand, An Jing quickly added, ”You clearly said to me an hour ago that you considered Vice General Qi as your brother...”

Du Aya said, ”But I also told you, if my brother likes me, I wouldn’t mind liking him back. I just asked, and my brother does like me, the kind of like that wants to marry me, so naturally, I’ll like my brother in the future too.”

Pausing, Du Aya laughed cheerfully, ”It’s rare to have someone who doesn’t mind my looks, likes me, wants to marry me, so of course I want to seize the opportunity and hold onto it firmly.”

Pausing again, Du Aya added, ”My brother is a good person. I believe I’ll be happy marrying him.”

An Jing, upon hearing this, really liked Du Aya’s straightforwardness, and immediately stopped talking about whether it was quick or not, laughingly saying, ”When you two get married, I’ll definitely prepare a big gift for you.”

Du Aya didn’t refuse, cheerfully clenching her fists and saying, ”Then thank you, General!”

After Du Aya left, An Jing looked at Xiao Changyi and asked with a smile, ”Husband, how about this soldier of mine?”

Xiao Changyi picked up a piece of meat for An Jing and calmly said two words, ”Not bad.”

Although his tone was calm, An Jing could tell that her husband genuinely thought Du Aya was a good soldier.

Du Aya was straightforward in doing things, not procrastinating, not over-thinking, and not over-imagining, besides being brave in fighting enemies and having a heart loyal to the nation, truly remarkable.

An Jing just smiled at Xiao Changyi before continuing to eat. However, out of the corner of her eye, she saw Gong Juechen with a particularly gloomy little look, instantly making her laugh out loud, and asked, ”What’s wrong with you?”

Gong Juechen maintained his tilted head position from being pushed by Ye Zhi, speaking out, ”I feel emotionally unbalanced.”

An Jing instantly understood what he was emotionally unbalanced about, so she didn’t ask further.

Gong Juechen wanted An Jing to ask, but An Jing didn’t ask, making him feel stifled, so he simply turned his face back to look at Ye Zhi, asking particularly gloomily, ”Zhizhi, when are we getting married?”

Ye Zhi couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to him.

Gong Juechen continued, ”Why is it so easy for others to get married, while it’s so hard for me?”

Ye Zhi finally spoke, not even looking at him, while eating, she said calmly, ”It can also be easy for you, as long as the bride isn’t me.”

”...I think I should dig out my heart and let you see, to check if it’s all about you.”

Ye Zhi still didn’t look at him, ”Your sweet talk is useless to me, I don’t buy it.”

Gong Juechen could only resentfully seek help from An Jing, ”Jingjing...”

An Jing had a helpless look on her face.

Gong Juechen: ”...”
