Chapter 438: Chapter 437: Where the Heart is, Every Place is a Paradise_1

Gazing at Su Ke, who was snuggled up with Qin Yi roasting meat by the bonfire, she pondered and sighed!

"Well, when you originally married into the Qin family, it was on your own request, and it was also your father’s ambitious gamble. Your mother only wants your happiness. Even if I have to put up with the old guy’s nonsense, as long as you’re cheerful. Moreover, with the Su family already in such a state, who are we to fear?"

Her words delighted Su Pan’er!

"Mom, the Su family won’t always be down and out. My brother is not someone who would spend his life in a desolate little village. Just you wait! I promise, in the not too distant future, Ke’er will surely earn you the title of the wife of an imperial courtier!"

Par’er has been a bright child since he was young, suitable for officialdom.

Actually, many people are suitable for officialdom, but being suitable is not enough, it depends on whether they have the power and background.

In this day and age, if you have power and background, it’s hard not to hold any office!

Now they are in their prime, as the saying goes good luck comes after surviving a disaster, Qin Yi’s official career path must go well, and Ke’er joining the officialdom is inevitable!

There needs to be someone strong who can work in tandem with Qin Yi.

Naturally, Ke’er is the only choice!

"Good! Mother is looking forward to Ke’er earning the title of the wife of an imperial courtier for her!"

Hearing Su Pan’er’s words, Mrs. Su-Hua could not help but break into a vibrant smile!

While the crowd was happily roasting their meat, a figure stealthily sneaked over.

As he approached Mrs. Su-Hua, he laughed like a fool. If not Su Lao Si, who else could it be?

Mrs. Su-Hua was just recently cheered by Su Pan’er’s words. Seeing Su Lao Si’s foolish manner, she couldn’t help but glare at him.

"He-he-he, fooling around! Serves you right for drinking dishwashing water!"

Not only does Su Lao Si not get mad, he even rubbed his head and continued to laugh foolishly, shyly moving closer to Mrs. Su-Hua: "If it could make you less angry, let alone drinking the dishwashing water, even your foot-washing water, why not?"

"Really?"

Mrs. Su-Hua looked at him sideways, with an attitude that if he dared to speak, she would dare to do.

"Of course, you’re my wife after all!"

Su Lao Si chuckles and says with a shy face and rigid neck.

"Tch! Who’s your wife? You’re just a peasant, and you want a wife? Hmph!"

Mrs. Su-Hua made as if to hit him, angered into a flirtatious tantrum, but Su Lao Si not only didn’t dodge, he also deliberately pushed his head forward.

"My wife, you must be gentle. If you hurt your hand on me, I wouldn’t stand it, it would hurt my feelings."

"Get lost, you old rogue!"

Mrs. Su-Hua reprimanded him with a smile, then saw that their children were pretending not to watch, busy with their own things, but with their ears pricked all the while. She couldn’t help but feel a little awkward: "All right, you go a little farther away. Don’t you feel embarrassed? I’m worried that you’ll make a fool of yourself."

Having said that, she moved over to the other side.

Taking advantage of her parents being wrapped up in each other, Su Pan’er quietly sat down next to Jun Ruoxue, her face apologetic as she watched her laughing cheerfully.

"My parents are straightforward and don’t care much about the occasion, which may have made you laugh."

"What’s there to laugh about, your parents get along so well."

Jun Ruoxue spoke enviously, recalling her family’s rear courtyard. Although her father also loved her mother, there was always a certain chill between them. The rear courtyard was always bustling, with many concubines and adjoining room maidservants, and there was never any peace.

Fortunately, her mother was strong yet gentle, overprotective, shielding her from the storm, and allowing her to grow up carefree.

However, her good days wouldn’t last much longer, once that day arrives...

Thinking of this, her gleeful eyes suddenly shrouded in a layer of mournful mist, becoming somewhat lost and distracted.

"Xue’er, Xue’er, what are you thinking about?"

It took Su Pan’er several calls to bring Xue’er’s mind back.

"Nothing much, just thinking that my Brother Chen must have returned to the county government office?"

As she said this, she stood up and evaded Su Pan’er’s probing questions while going to get the meat skewers.

Su Pan’er’s eyes flickered, and she said no more.

She looked up to see Mrs. Su-Hua and Su Lao Si gathered around another fire happily roasting meat, chatting and laughing. It seemed the two had reconciled, which prompted her to smile.

Qin Yi quietly sat down beside Su Pan’er, a smile on his face.

"This afternoon, Great General Ye mentioned the reassignment orders, my appointment has been issued. According to Great General Ye, unless something unexpected happens, I should be appointed as the County Magistrate of Changze County."

What he didn’t mention was that Ye Han had actually spoken of another matter.

Along with the court’s appointment, there was also a temporarily granted identity of a fifth-grade Welfare Official. This was an alias to be used when necessary.

Officially, he was the Magistrate of Changze County, but secretly, he was in charge of investigating the corruption and fraud case regarding relief funds.

Ye Han repeatedly stressed that this identity must be kept secret and only used when necessary to avoid unnecessary complications.

After all, a previous welfare official had "unexpectedly" died on his journey from the Capital City!

"County Magistrate?"

Su Pan’er raised her eyebrows in surprise!

This was indeed beyond her expectations!

She had assumed that at best he would be a minor official of eighth-grade, and yet...

Seeing Qin Yi’s calm yet joyful expression, she rephrased her words and then also laughed!

"That’s good news! From now on, you’ll be a person with an official position. Even though the official rank is not high, at last, you’ve established a foundation. After a few years of hard work, it will improve."

"Your words struck a chord with me!"

Qin Yi’s face was full of joy, he couldn’t help but hold Su Pan’er’s hand: "Pan’er, rest assured! I will work hard to make accomplishments and give you a secure and good life!"

"Hmm, I believe in you, you’ll manage!"

Su Pan’er held Qin Yi’s hand firm, her eyes radiating sincerity, "But, don’t put too much pressure on yourself. Money or the likes, as long as it’s enough is fine. Happiness can be found anywhere, as long as we are together. Having you, me, and our child is already enough, I don’t desire anything more."

"I understand, Pan’er, I understand your worries, I will definitely not engage in any illegal activities. Don’t worry!"

Qin Yi held her hand tight, earnestly assuring her.

He understood, Pan’er was worried that he might lose sight of his morals on his career path of an official, influenced by others. Her biggest fear was for him to follow in the footsteps of Su Sikong, riskily chasing after positions and wealth, and setting off on a path of no return.

"I haven’t yet grown old with you, our little bean sprout hasn’t been born yet, how could I dare to engage in such actions and give up on a peaceful and stable life?"

Su Pan’er smiled sweetly: "With this assurance from you, I feel relieved."

Thinking about it, Qin Yi’s nature was not the sort of person who would let worldly benefits blind him easily.

As their eyes met, reflecting each other’s image, the two hearts unifying, they couldn’t help but laugh!
