Zhou Qiongyue and Yuan Bohua watched their eldest son's expression change, and they just looked at each other silently, their eyes seemed to say, "See! You've spoiled your son."
Zhou Qiongyue and Yuan Bohua both understood each other's intentions from each other's eyes, and they both turned their faces away proudly.
When Yuan Yixuan saw her grandfather and grandmother like this, she covered her mouth with her hands and laughed secretly. She was very cute, like a cute little hamster.
Seeing how adorable his eldest niece was, Yuan Chaochang couldn't help but reach out and ruffle Yuan Yixuan's hair. "What kind of husband do you want to find when our little Xuan'er grows up?"
Although Yuan Yixuan was only seven years old, she knew what a husband was and shyly hid beside her grandmother Zhou Qiongyue.
Seeing his niece was shy, Yuan Chaochang wanted to tease her even more. "Then I'll find you someone as powerful as your father, okay?"
Yuan Yixuan poked her head out from behind Zhou Qiongyue, thought seriously for a moment, and then replied hesitantly, "If I can't be as dedicated as my grandfather and uncle, I can find someone as capable as my father."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Chaokang looked up at Yuan Yixuan in surprise. He didn't think that his daughter's first choice of finding a loyal man was a good thing.
Yuan Chaokang didn't treat his seven-year-old daughter as a child. Instead, he analyzed the situation with her seriously, saying, "Your situation is different from your grandmother's and your aunt's. Your grandmother had an aunt who was the queen, and a cousin who later became the emperor and grew up with her. Your grandfather had no choice.
Your great uncle didn't have concubines because your great aunt gave birth to children one after another and raised them all. To some extent, your great uncle also did this for these children.
Do you want to keep having children like your great aunt?"
Yuan Yixuan was still struggling, but Yuan Bohua lost his temper first, "That's not why I don't want to take a concubine. I mainly like your mother."
Zhou Qiongyue reached out and grabbed the flesh on Yuan Bohua's waist. "My son is teaching his children. Don't make things worse."
Yuan Bohua could only turn around and smile ingratiatingly at Zhou Qiongyue, but didn't say anything else.
Yuan Yixuan was silent for a moment, then asked seriously, "Can my daughter choose someone from a lower family background?"
Yuan Yixuan really didn't like the backyard of the Prince's Mansion. She liked a quiet life with few things to do. She didn't want to be like her mother, worrying about a bunch of women's affairs every day.
When Yuan Chaokang heard his daughter say this, he felt relieved.
Yuan Chaokang still feels that his daughter's growing environment is too simple. Regardless of whether his son-in-law can stay with one person for his whole life, his daughter should not have such an expectation in the first place.
Yuan Chaokang thought to himself that this time when he returned, he would still bring his daughter back home to live for a while.
Yuan Chaokang had a lot on his mind, but his expression remained calm.
"Sure, if you choose someone from a lower family background, your dream might be realized. But in that case, I might have to suppress your future husband as a father and not allow him to take the lead.
In that case, you may have to bow when you meet your close friends, and you may have to flatter the ladies who are not on good terms with you, all for the sake of your future children and husband's family.
You marry down a lot, and it might just take a while for you to lose your mind. But if your children want to reach that level again, they might need a genius and two, three, or four generations of hard work!
Yuan Yixuan thought about the scenes her father had described and felt they were too horrible. She couldn't possibly say nice things to the person she hated.
As for my great aunt who gave birth to six children in her lifetime, my great aunt and my mother are about the same age, but now when they stand together, they look like they are about ten years apart.
Yuan Yixuan felt that this was even more terrifying than marrying down. At this moment, she felt that her mother's life was pretty good.
"Father, marrying down is not suitable for my daughter at all. From now on, I will obey you and grandmother."
After Yuan Yixuan finished speaking, she nodded vigorously to show the truthfulness of what she said.
Yuan Chaokang smiled with satisfaction upon hearing this, "Don't worry, you are my father's only legitimate daughter. Your mother and I will carefully choose for you when the time comes."
Although Zhou Qiongyue did not stop her youngest son from teaching her daughter, she felt that her eldest granddaughter was still young and it was too early to talk about this. "Our Xiaoxuan'er will live a happy life too."
"And Fugui! My granddaughter doesn't want to please people she doesn't like in the future." Yuan Yixuan said, angrily clenching her small fist and waving it in front of her chest.
Yuan Yixuan's anxious look made everyone present laugh.
Even Yuan Bohua couldn't help teasing Yuan Yixuan, "Yes, and Fugui will definitely not let our little princess suffer."
Yuan Yixuan was no longer shy now, but nodded with satisfaction. Her cute look touched Yuan Chaochang's heart.
Yuan Chaochang: It’s another day when I want to snatch my second brother’s daughter and raise her.
With Yuan Yixuan's interruption, Zhou Qiongyue and Yuan Bohua finally managed to forget to inform their two sons about the farm swap.
Yuan Chaochang had lunch here, rested for a while, and then hurried back.
Since the new emperor ascended the throne, Yuan Chaochang's official position has been rising like a rocket, so he is really busy.
Yuan Chaokang no longer had those worries. He stayed on the farm for another half a month before taking his daughter back.
Yuan Chaokang felt that his daughter was old enough to spend more time with Ren Xiyu. His daughter might not need to use the fighting skills in the backyard, but she must understand them.
No matter how much others talk about it, it is not as profound as your own experience.
Zhou Qiongyue and Yuan Bohua have always been supportive of their son's efforts to educate the next generation. So when their youngest son suggested taking their granddaughter back home to live for a while, Zhou Qiongyue and Yuan Bohua agreed without hesitation.
She even told her son not to rush to send her granddaughter to accompany them, as they just wanted to spend some time alone.
Originally, Yuan Chaokang suggested sending one of his legitimate sons to accompany his father and mother, but Yuan Bohua did not agree.
Yuan Bohua felt that he was very happy to raise a granddaughter, but as for raising a brat, forget it!
Seeing that his father and mother didn't want to raise him, Yuan Chaokang gave up, thinking that it would be the same if he visited them often.
Yuan Chaokang prepared to return to Yuan'an to settle all business matters. When the weather officially cools down next month, he would come to the farm to accompany his father and mother.
As for why he didn't take Ren Xiyu and the child with him, it was mainly because he left and took Ren Xiyu with him. There was no one in charge in the backyard, so those people would make a big fuss.
If I bring everyone to the farm, and if some foolish person makes trouble in front of my mother, I will just make her unhappy!
After careful consideration, Yuan Chaokang still felt that it would be best for him to accompany his father and mother alone.
Zhou Qiongyue didn’t know what Yuan Chaokang was thinking, but she and Yuan Bohua were quite happy in their own world of two.
