Peaceful Farm Life-Chapter 2048 - 2049: Playing Dumb

An Yiqi immediately seized the key point, rubbed his chin with a playful smile, and said, "It’s not that you don’t want to marry her, it’s just that you don’t want to get married right now. So, does that mean you’ll marry her in the future?"

An Yilin just grunted and didn’t say anything.

But this was almost as good as an agreement.

An Jing immediately looked at Xiao Changyi. It seemed her sixth son was taken with Qi Linglong and had decided to keep her by his side.

At that moment, Su Yixing was setting An Yilin’s bones and, while picking up a brush to prepare a pain-relieving potion for An Yilin, he smiled and said, "Dad, Mom, here’s what I think. To avoid ruining Sixth Brother’s great match, you should play dumb and not meddle in this matter. I can see Sixth Brother treats her quite well. Just now he made sure she ate before letting me tend to his arm. With him taking care of her, he certainly won’t mistreat her."

"This..." An Jing was somewhat unsure.

But Xiao Changyi was very straightforward: "Your mother and I have never been foolish in this life, but we can be foolish this once."

An Yilin was immediately happy: "Thank you, Dad!"

An Jing could only sigh with a smile. But she still couldn’t help but caution him, "Even though your father and I won’t interfere, you absolutely cannot bully her. Her mother and I used to be friends, you know. Even though we haven’t seen each other in years, the feelings are still there."

An Yilin replied, "Don’t worry, Mom. I just want to keep her around and tease her a little, that’s all. I won’t really bully her."

Hearing this, An Jing wasn’t sure if she should be angry or pleased.

An Yiqi first glanced at Qi Linglong in the outer hall and then chuckled, "Compared to Sixth Brother keeping her, I’m more curious about her sister. Just how high is her martial arts level, to have broken Sixth Brother’s bone?"

His Sixth Brother’s martial arts weren’t low at all.

An Yilin said, "Qi Jiaoqiao’s martial arts aren’t low. They’re about the same as mine, but her strength is particularly great. It’s like she has divine power."

An Jing laughed, "Her mother was strong too."

An Yilin continued, "I heard that whenever Qi Jiaoqiao fights with someone, she either breaks their arm or leg. Because of this, no man in the Imperial Capital dares to marry her."

"That strength..." An Jing clicked her tongue. Qi Jiaoqiao was only fourteen, right?

An Yiqi became even more interested and excitedly said, "I must find an opportunity to meet her one day."

Just as An Yiqi finished speaking, someone came to report, "Your Majesty, Your Queen, Great General Qi Gaoda and General Du Aya have come with their second daughter, Qi Jiaoqiao, to seek an audience."

An Jing said, "Let them wait in the main hall of the Palace."

"Yes, Your Queen."

An Jing gave Qi Linglong a complicated look before saying to Xiao Changyi, "Dear, let’s go. Even if we’re playing dumb, we still need to meet them."

Xiao Changyi nodded.

An Yiqi eagerly followed and said, "Mom, Dad, I’m coming with you. Qi Jiaoqiao is also here; I want to see what kind of person has put Sixth Brother in this state."

An Yilin snorted, "Fifth Brother, I’ve already told you how formidable she is. If you impulsively fight her and end up with bone fractures like me, don’t say I didn’t warn you."

"Got it, got it. You’re not holding a grudge, so why would I fight her? I’m just going to see what she looks like; I’m quite curious." With that, An Yiqi followed An Jing and Xiao Changyi to the Palace.

In the main hall of the Palace, Qi Gaoda, Du Aya, and Qi Jiaoqiao were waiting. As soon as Xiao Changyi and the others arrived, the three of them immediately knelt down to pay their respects.
