"Brother, Uncle, don't worry, no matter if I get married in the future or not, Mingyu will always love you the most!"
Xiao Mingyu, despite her young age, has managed to charm her older brother and uncle completely!
However, Xiao Yang was displeased as soon as he said that!
"Didn't Mingyu say she loves her father the most?"
Song Yan'er...
She rolled her eyes at Xiao Yang. Why are you, a grown man, arguing with the kids? Xiao Mingyu has said this to everyone, so what's the point of arguing?
"Father~"
Alright, as soon as Xiao Mingyu started acting cute, Xiao Yang immediately surrendered!
So what's the big deal?
Because on the way back, Song Yan'er bought some pastries that everyone liked, so it was already dark when she got home!
The house is finally back to normal!
The old lady, the old man, and Song Dahai had been entertaining the neighbors all afternoon and were very excited, so they were all tired now. They ate a little something and went back to their rooms to rest! Especially Song Dahai, who hadn't slept all night and was extremely excited today, so he almost fell asleep while eating. Xiao Yang couldn't bear to see him like that and helped him back to his room to sleep!
Song Yan'er is extremely excited now, because she can finally do whatever she wants!
Xiao Yang went to bed early last night because he had an exam today!
God knows how much willpower I used to overcome myself last night!
Today! Heh, there's no escaping it now!
After Song Yan'er and her mother settled the children in, Song Yan'er said goodbye to her mother and then wanted to go back to her room!
But!
"Yan'er, Xiao Yang will be a top scholar in the future, and there will definitely be many women eager to become his concubines. What should we do? Although you two are in a good relationship now, can Xiao Yang avoid so many temptations?"
Song's mother started to worry after learning that Xiao Yang had become the top scholar in the imperial examination. After all, many men, not to mention those who became top scholars, even those who only passed the provincial examination had three wives and four concubines! That's just how the world is. Even if Xiao Yang really did take a concubine, she, as his mother-in-law, couldn't say anything!
However, Song's mother knew Song Yan'er very well. She couldn't tolerate any infidelity and would never share a husband with another woman! Don't even mention the child's sake; Song Yan'er wasn't that kind of person at all. At most, she would use every means to get the child!
Looking at her mother's worried expression, Song Yan'er felt a warmth in her heart. Only someone who truly cares about her would consider her feelings like this!
However, Shenmeng had asked herself this question before, and her answer had never changed!
Song Yan'er held her mother's hand:
"Mother, how do you know I won't be the one who changes his heart? Besides, even if he takes a concubine, and I divorce him, I wouldn't be considered to have lost out, would I? After all, I have two such adorable babies! I've essentially been taking advantage of him for so many years! Right!"
Song's mother...
I knew my daughter's ideas were different from others, but I never expected them to be so refreshing and unconventional!
"Yan'er, what if he doesn't agree to give the baby to you?"
This is also a possibility, and Song's mother has to consider it!
"Mother, don't worry. Putting everything else aside, my fighting skills are still up to par. If he doesn't agree, I'll beat him until he does! Mother, don't worry! Even if what you're worried about happens, I have money, lots and lots of money, and gold too! Enough for our family to live comfortably for generations to come! What do we have to be afraid of!"
Most importantly, your daughter is so beautiful. Three-legged toads are hard to find, but two-legged men are plentiful! It shouldn't be me worrying; it should be Xiao Yang worrying that I won't want him!
Song's mother's mood instantly improved. Indeed, with her daughter being so capable and wealthy, it would be strange if Xiao Yang didn't cherish her; why would he need a concubine? She was just worrying unnecessarily!
Seeing that her mother's expression had relaxed, Song Yan'er breathed a sigh of relief. After all, women in ancient times regarded their husbands as their heaven, and she was afraid that her mother would not be able to accept it if she suddenly mentioned divorce!
What Song Yan'er didn't know was that in the past, her mother would definitely not have been able to accept it. However, as she spent every day with the old lady and Song Yan'er, she gradually came to believe that what Song Yan'er said was right!
"Then get some rest. This is just an idea, so please don't tell Xiao Yang. What if Xiao Yang is a good person and won't be tempted by these things?"
Song Yan'er...
In truth, he trusted Xiao Yang. He had always been good at judging people, and Xiao Yang wasn't the kind of person who would change his mind easily! However, he hadn't told Song's mother any of this!
She was even more worried because she was afraid that her mother would think she was love-struck!
Thinking about what I need to do later, well, everything else can take a backseat, let's live in the moment!
"My husband, my husband, have you returned?"
Song Yan'er started calling out as soon as she was at the door!
Xiao Yang was reading a book inside the room...
Thank goodness I moved to a place far away to avoid being disturbed! Otherwise, with Song Yan'er's shouting, the whole family would probably have heard it!
"I'm here!"
Even though I want to complain, my wife is still my wife, and I find her adorable no matter what!
When Song Yan'er entered the room, she saw Xiao Yang sitting by the window reading a book. Oh, and now he was looking at Song Yan'er!
"My lord, you seem to be in a fine mood today, even reading a book! What, did you become so diligent in your studies after passing the imperial examination?"
Xiao Yang sighed softly: "Of course, otherwise you, the wife of the top scholar, won't last long. You don't know, the officialdom is now severely divided because of the struggle for the throne! Every day, different people are exposed! So if I don't work hard, I don't know when I'll lose my official position!"
Xiao Yang rarely talked to Song Yan'er about official matters. He guessed that if she passed the imperial examination with top honors, the emperor would personally confer the title the next day. Based on past experience, the top three would go directly into the Hanlin Academy!
This year, however, the emperor has expressed his intention to abdicate, so it's unclear what the situation will be like!
Who knows, maybe the Emperor will see that Xiao Yang is doing well in Dongquan City and send him to some godforsaken place to develop the area!
This feeling of not being able to decide where he was going made Xiao Yang feel panicked. He really didn't want his whole family to suffer by running around with him!
Song Yan'er smiled alluringly:
"What are you afraid of, my husband? No matter what, I'll always be by your side. Even if you give up your official post, so what? Besides, if you hadn't wanted to help your cousin, I wouldn't have wanted you to come to the capital. You're so happy in Dongquan City! The emperor is far away from you!"
Besides, your wife is so good at making money, wouldn't it be good for you to support her all this time? Wouldn't it be better for you to just be my little puppy? Hmm?"
Song Yan'er lifted Xiao Yang's chin with one hand, looking at him with a lewd gaze, as if she would swallow him whole at any moment!
Xiao Yang...
Honestly, he sometimes felt that he and Song Yan'er were born the wrong genders! They should have been born the opposite!
