Peaceful Farm Life

Chapter 1985: Chapter 1986: Kid, You’re Ruthless

Gong Juechen finally sat on the kang, cracking sunflower seeds while saying, ”The only thing you’ve done to offend me is bullying my daughter, and you’ve already made up for that. So, the account is settled. Now, let’s talk business. I know what you want to say to us, but you don’t need to. As long as you agree to a few conditions and sign a letter of assurance, we can accept you as our son-in-law.”

”Really?!” An Yiqing exclaimed, overjoyed.

”Don’t get excited too soon. Listen to the conditions first. I have a feeling you won’t be able to meet them.”

An Yiqing wanted to say he would agree to any conditions, but hearing Gong Juechen say he might not be able to meet them made him a bit nervous and uncertain, so he asked, ”What conditions?”

Gong Juechen didn’t reply; he just looked at Ye Zhi.

Ye Zhi then took out the prepared letter of assurance from her pocket and began reading it item by item: ”First, you must never bully Lele again.”

An Yiqing immediately laughed, ”Lele is now the love of my life. I adore her so much that I could never bully her.”

Gong Juechen said disapprovingly, ”Stop joking around and be serious!” Clearly, this was meant to be a serious matter.

An Yiqing then stopped smiling and tried his best to look serious.

Ye Zhi gave An Yiqing a glance and then continued, ”Second, you must never visit the brothel to flirt.”

An Yiqing quickly explained, ”I go to the brothel just to drink, listen to music, and see beauties. I really haven’t done anything inappropriate. Didn’t Uncle Gong used to go too?”

Ye Zhi immediately looked at Gong Juechen.

Gong Juechen looked up, down, left, and right, avoiding eye contact with Ye Zhi.

While Ye Zhi wasn’t paying attention, Gong Juechen gave An Yiqing a fierce glare, conveying the obvious message: You’re pretty bold, bringing up old issues! My Zhizhi had almost forgotten about them! Now, because of you, she’s remembered again! If I end up being punished to sleep in the study tonight, I’m coming to sleep with you! Let’s see how my precious daughter can sneak out to find you at night then!

An Yiqing: ”...” Did I say something wrong?

Ye Zhi continued, ”Third, you must only marry Lele as your wife and never have multiple wives or concubines.”

An Yiqing immediately laughed, ”Of course. In my family, no one has multiple wives or concubines. Our tradition is one life, one partner.”

Ye Zhi nodded in satisfaction.

Gong Juechen, on the other hand, was still dissatisfied because An Yiqing had just brought up his old problems, so he said, ”Who was it before that mentioned wanting multiple wives and concubines?”

An Yiqing immediately put on a smile, ”That was just something I said for fun, to entertain myself. I never really intended it.”

Ye Zhi glared at Gong Juechen before continuing, ”Fourth, you can’t...”

Ye Zhi and Gong Juechen listed conditions that filled an entire sheet, but essentially they wanted An Yiqing to be devoted to Gong Le, treat her well, and ensure a lifetime of fidelity with no wavering heart.

After Ye Zhi finished reading, she asked collectively, ”If you have no objections to these conditions, sign your name and leave a handprint here.”

An Yiqing immediately said, ”No objections, no objections.” Then, enduring the pain all over his body, he struggled to support himself with chairs and tables as he walked over to Ye Zhi, took the pen, signed his name, and stamped a red handprint on the letter of assurance.

Ye Zhi was quite pleased.

Gong Juechen, however, couldn’t resist adding a threat, ”You’ve agreed to the conditions, but if you fail to meet even one in the future, watch how I’ll deal with you.”
