Aunt Pei looked at Shen Qianye: "You are not young anymore, don't you plan to start a family? Then you will have a wife to help you wash clothes."
"No rush, I spend a lot of time in the military camp, so I don't have much time to go home." Shen Qianye seemed to remember something and changed the subject: "But...my mother said in her letter home that she has chosen a few candidates for Bai Ying and me, and asked us to go home and see them when we are free."
Aunt Pei said, "Then you guys are on vacation this time, so you have the time."
Shen Baiying said: "I'm not going. I came back to give you guys a farewell party."
"It's okay. We have to pass through Dong'an City on our way to the capital anyway, so it's just on the way." Aunt Pei said with a smile, "Yu'an and Yanli are already grown up. I originally planned to find her a wife in her hometown, but now that she's following us to the capital, there's no chance!"
"I'm not going to the capital." Pei Yu'an suddenly spoke.
Aunt Pei's expression changed, and her smile froze: "Why not? It would be great to go to the capital with your brother!"
Pei Yuan explained: "Mom, although a military doctor is not a high-ranking official, it is still a serious military position. You can't just quit it."
During this period, Aunt Pei has begun to understand some of the ways in officialdom.
He immediately said, "Don't worry about this, let your brother handle it."
Pei Yu'an glanced at his elder brother, and seeing that he remained silent, his gaze returned to his mother.
"I don't want to go to the capital either. Being a military doctor in the barracks is pretty good."
"How can you not go to the capital with us? I'm worried about leaving you here alone without anyone to take care of you!" Aunt Pei was firm.
Shen Baiying mustered up the courage: “Auntie, don’t worry, I will take care of Brother Pei.”
Aunt Pei frowned: "You will get married sooner or later, can you still take care of him for the rest of his life? You..."
She suddenly understood something and said in shock, "Could it be that you two..."
Hearing this, Shen Baiying raised her eyes to look at Pei Yuan, but her gaze happened to meet his.
For some unknown reason, I didn't refute it.
Pei Yu'an's heart moved, and he immediately said: "Yes, Bai Ying and I have fallen in love with each other over time."
Shen Qianye dropped his chopsticks in shock.
His sister and Brother Pei? When did it happen? How come he didn't know?
When Shen Baiying heard Pei Yu'an's words, her heart "thump thump!" almost jumped into her throat.
In her mind, she kept wondering, was Pei Yu'an sincere in what he said, or was he using her as a shield?
On the one hand, she felt that with Pei Yu'an's character, he would not use her as an excuse to lie in order to achieve his goals.
But on the other hand, she found it hard to believe. How could Second Brother Pei like someone like her?
There's a conflict in my mind.
In Aunt Pei's eyes, Shen Baiying's silence was shyness and acquiescence.
She thought Shen Baiying was a good girl. If they had told her about this earlier, if Shen Baiying had not been abused and had not been pregnant with someone else's child, she would definitely have agreed a hundred thousand times.
But the situation is different now!
Yan Li became a high-ranking official. As long as Yu An followed him to the capital and sought a position or opened a clinic, his future would be better and better.
Maybe I can marry a young lady from an official family in the capital!
As a result, Yu An is willing to give up such a good future for Bai Ying?
"I don't agree!"
Aunt Pei objected with an ugly expression, looking at Shen Baiying: "Baiying! You know what your situation is. My son Yu'an is going to the capital to marry a girl from a good family. His future will get better and better. You can't be so selfish..."
“Bang!”
Before Aunt Pei could finish her words, Pei Yu'an suddenly slammed his chopsticks on the table.
This was the first time everyone saw Pei Yu'an lose his temper, and they were shocked for a moment.
The atmosphere in the dining room suddenly became silent.
