Peaceful Farm Life

Chapter 2026: Chapter 2027: Anything Goes?!

”Mom, I’m fine.” An Yiyun smiled to reassure An Jing, but his heart was heavy. He felt guilty towards his parents.

Su Yixing couldn’t bear to see his mother upset and also comforted, ”Mom, you don’t have to worry about Fourth Brother anymore. He has resigned from his official position and said he wants to be by your and dad’s side like Big Brother.”

”Really?!” An Jing was overjoyed. She then curiously asked, ”Why did he resign?” They had advised him not to take the official position before, but he insisted on doing it.

An Yiyun smiled and said, ”I felt I was too capricious, always worrying you and dad, and realized it wasn’t good to ignore my health, so I decided not to continue.”

These words were true, but not entirely so.

Both An Jing and Xiao Changyi could sense that, but neither said anything.

Perhaps to avoid further questioning from An Jing, An Yiqing laughed and said, ”Dad, Mom, Fourth Brother not only resigned, but he also has someone he loves. This time he came back to seek your approval.”

An Jing was even happier and eagerly asked, ”Yun Er, which family’s girl is your sweetheart?”

An Yiyun gently replied, ”It’s Wen Ya.”

”So it’s Wen Ya,” An Jing was slightly surprised but more delighted, ”I haven’t seen her in many years, but I heard she’s still as well-behaved and quiet as before.”

An Yiyun just smiled. His future wife was indeed well-behaved.

Su Yixing said, ”Second Uncle made Brother Youbao the Prime Minister and bestowed noble titles on us seven brothers. Mom and Dad, with your special status, why don’t you grant Fourth Brother’s marriage?”

Gong Le pretended not to understand and asked, ”Why can’t Big Brother Qing and I be granted a marriage?”

An Yiqing laughed, ”It’s not that you can’t. It’s just that your father’s status is even more special and can’t be publicly displayed. So, I’ll propose to your family like an ordinary person, but in the end, I’ll definitely have a grand ceremony to marry you as my Princess. Don’t worry. I’ve already thought it through. You’ll marry me as the daughter of my mother’s sworn sister.”

Gong Le immediately felt delighted.

An Jing and Xiao Changyi exchanged a glance before An Jing said to An Yiyun, ”Then let your father grant you and Wen Ya’s marriage, and choose an auspicious day to get married. Lele’s marriage can be granted at the same time, according to Qinger’s idea, saying Lele is the daughter of my sworn sister.”

After a pause, An Jing then smiled and asked An Yiyun, An Yiqing, and Gong Le, ”Have you all thought about when you approximately want to get married? That way, we can choose an auspicious date.”

Gong Le immediately pouted and said, ”Aunt Jing, seniority must be upheld. If Brother Xing isn’t getting married, it doesn’t matter if Big Brother Qing and I have thought about when to get married.”

An Jing laughed, ”Seniority does matter, but rules are rigid and people are flexible. Why strictly adhere to them? If Star never gets married, will you also not get married for life? Come on, don’t get stuck in a dead end. I’ll decide; regardless of age, as long as you have someone you love and want to get married, you can choose to get married whenever.”

”Really, you can?!” An Yiqing and Gong Le’s eyes lit up.

An Jing found it amusing, ”Of course, it’s true. In the past, women couldn’t show their faces in public, but now women make up 20% of the military camp, and Xiyun is flourishing. Some rules really shouldn’t be rigidly followed.”

An Yiqing and Gong Le still couldn’t believe it and looked at the patriarch, Xiao Changyi. Seeing Xiao Changyi nod slightly, An Yiqing and Gong Le immediately hugged each other, cheering, ”Finally, we don’t have to wait two years!”

An Jing found it bewildering and asked, ”What wait for two years?”
