Peaceful Farm Life

Chapter 2627: Chapter 2628: Return to Tianyun (194)

An Jing glanced at the large paper-cut in Su Changyi’s hand and laughed, ”Thanks to your father’s skillful hands, even if he doesn’t tell me, I can tell who’s who. Look, even your sister and Ninth Brother are on it.”

Su Xing said, ”Fortunately, Sister and Ninth Brother are doing well in modern times. If they weren’t, not only would you and dad be worried, but I wouldn’t be at ease either.”

An Jing nodded.

After a while, An Jing finally said, ”It’s good that you also came here. You don’t know how your father and I were living after losing you.”

Su Xing immediately teared up and choked, ”Dad, mom, I will never worry you again. I will take good care of myself.”

”Hmm.” An Jing nodded with relief.

Su Changyi tore a few small pieces off the paper-cut, and suddenly there was a small baby next to the silhouette of Su Xing and Taoming Ye, like it was their child.

”Dad...” Su Xing threw herself into Su Changyi’s arms, overwhelmed with emotion.

Su Changyi said nothing, only wrapped one arm around her shoulders and held the paper-cut with the other.

An Jing laughed, ”Don’t cry now. It’s a joyous occasion that your body is fully recovered. As for children, your father and I believe you will have them in the future, so don’t put too much pressure on yourself.”

Su Xing sniffed and nodded again, ”Hmm.”

At this moment, the eunuch chief loudly announced outside the door, ”Your Majesty, Queen, the sugarcane is here.”

An Jing immediately said happily, ”Bring it in!”

”Yes, Queen.” The eunuch chief respectfully carried in a tray, which had a large plate filled with sliced sugarcane.

After the eunuch chief left, An Jing smiled at Su Xing, ”Last night, I suddenly craved sugarcane, and this morning your father sent someone to get it. You should eat some too; they say this year’s sugarcane is particularly sweet.”

Su Xing emerged from her father’s embrace, took the piece of sugarcane An Jing handed her, and began eating. When her taste buds tasted the sweet juice, she immediately smiled, ”Mom, this sugarcane is really sweet; you should try it.”

An Jing wanted to pick up a piece to eat, but Su Changyi stopped her. He took out an extremely sharp small knife he had set aside, cut the sugarcane into evenly thick slices, and then let An Jing eat.

An Jing picked up a piece to taste, while laughing, ”My teeth are a bit loose, it’s not easy to eat something this hard, but your father always remembers.”

Su Xing grinned, ”Dad and mom are always so enviable~”

An Jing said, ”You and your husband aren’t bad either.”

Su Xing laughed, ”I think my brother and sister aren’t bad either; it’s probably just our family’s way.”

An Jing chuckled, ”Maybe it really is.”

Su Xing took another bite of sugarcane, eating and laughing, ”Speaking of sugarcane, mom, let me tell you, I have a comrade named Li Zijing. Her family runs a sugarcane factory, and she said that when she was little, her family grew sugarcane. Every time the military took leave, she’d bring various sugarcane products to us, especially during sugarcane season. The sugarcane she brought was incredibly sweet.”

Speaking of this, Su Xing’s eyes darkened, feeling somewhat uneasy, ”But... she was just like me, sacrificed during a mission. You don’t know how amazing she was–clearly younger than me by a year, yet much more capable. She always ranked first in assessments, knew so much, and her courage was such that nothing seemed to scare her.”
