Peaceful Farm Life

Chapter 1753: Chapter 1754: You’re Counting on Me Not Doing Anything to You, Aren’t You?

We’re leaving tomorrow, and the only thing Su Yixing is worried about is his private stash. So, this night, Su Yixing went to his elder brother Su Yi Jing’s room.

Ever since they turned eight, the four brothers had been sleeping in separate rooms, each with their own, and his own room was right next to his elder brother Su Yi Jing’s room.

”Brother. Brother.” As soon as he entered Su Yi Jing’s room, Su Yixing grabbed the Su Yi Jing who was ready to sleep.

Su Yi Jing just looked at him expressionlessly.

Su Yixing sighed inwardly, thinking ’He’s really getting more and more like dad,’ and then smiled and said, ”Brother, I’m leaving tomorrow. Can you give me back the key to my private stash?”

”You’re leaving, who knows when you’ll be back. Isn’t it better to leave it with me?” Su Yi Jing replied coolly.

Su Yixing thought, ’I’m just worried you’ll empty out my private stash,’ but outwardly he said cheerfully, ”Since I’m leaving, you should at least give me something to remember, right?”

Su Yi Jing immediately stuffed all the clothes he’d just changed out of into Su Yixing’s hands, ”Here’s a souvenir for you; no need to return it.”

Su Yixing: ”...” You’re just taking advantage of being my big brother, knowing I wouldn’t do anything to you, aren’t you?!

”Anything else?” Su Yi Jing squinted slightly, and to be honest, it was quite intimidating.

Su Yixing quickly put on another smile, ”No, no.”

”Then hurry and go back to rest. You have to leave early with Uncle Gong tomorrow morning.”

”Oh, oh, then I’ll go back and rest.” Outmatched by his elder brother, Su Yixing resignedly turned around to leave, but when he reached the door, he couldn’t help but turn back and say, ”Brother, you must take good care of my private stash key. Don’t lose it. And... use the stuff inside sparingly!”

He really doesn’t want to come back to find his private stash empty!

Seeing Su Yixing make that ”like cutting his own flesh” expression again, Su Yi Jing showed no expression on his face but found it amusing in his heart. He had never used anything from his younger brother’s stash, but his brother never realized this and always made that face at him.

...

When An Jing was living in the modern world, every time her parents sent her to her grandparents, they would leave with reddened eyes. Now, An Jing watched Su Yixing leave with reddened eyes.

A son travels a thousand miles, and a mother worries. At this moment, An Jing truly understood this saying.

Xiao Changyi also felt uncomfortable, but it didn’t show on his face.

Standing at the city gate, watching the carriage carrying Su Yixing disappear from their sight, An Jing finally lowered her eyes. After a moment, she looked up again and tried to smile at Xiao Changyi: ”Husband, let’s go back.”

”Hmm.”

Children have their own paths to walk. At this moment, as An Jing and Xiao Changyi turned to head back to the King of Xiyun’s mansion, they just hoped that their children’s future paths would be smooth, and that they would be healthy and happy.

...

Even with one less child in the house since Su Yixing left, it was still bustling.

Life went on as usual.

Time flew by, and half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

This day, as soon as An Yiyun returned from school at the palace, he gently said to Xiao Changyi and An Jing, ”Dad, Mom, I’ve made up my mind. I’ve decided to take the imperial examination route. I’ve already asked the Grand Tutor to help me register for this year’s prefectural exams, which will be held on March 15th.”
