In Love With My Fierce Farming Wife!
Chapter 952 - 957: Prince Wei Visits!

Chapter 952: Chapter 957: Prince Wei Visits!

The two of them shuffled responsibilities back and forth for a while, but in the end, it was Qin Yueshi who hesitantly began to speak.

"Third brother’s wife, we keep in our hearts all the kindness you’ve shown us over the years. You’ve also watched our children grow up at all times. Their marriages are a matter of concern for my husband and me as well, and now you see this..."

Su Pan’er placed the list she had been holding onto a small table. She didn’t comment on the choices on the list but instead began to chat idly about family matters.

"Eldest sister-in-law speaks truly. I, Su Pan’er, have been married into the Qin Family for many years, and from the very beginning, I have a vivid memory of Shuang’er. I also like Shuang’er, otherwise, I would not have allowed Shuang’er to become Yan Yan’s study companion."

Su Pan’er smiled at them and said, "The reason I had Shuang’er become Little Yanyan’s study companion was naturally because I genuinely cared for Shuang’er’s well-being. Although Shuang’er is of marriageable age, she has only just reached the appropriate age for it, like a bud just beginning to shine. The best days are still ahead of her."

Given Little Yanyan’s status, if Su Pan’er were to step forward and call for a study companion for Little Yanyan, many dignitaries would likely be scrambling to get into the Qin Family’s favor.

Yet Su Pan’er still chose Shuang’er, with the intention of lifting her up.

However, now that Qin Yueshi was so worried about Shuang’er’s marriage, it made it difficult for Su Pan’er to say much.

Her words made Qin Yueshi unable to hold back a smile.

"Third brother’s wife, we hold dear the kindness you’ve shown to our Shuang’er. You..."

"But if you decided on a marriage for Shuang’er, I assume you would want her to stay at home to prepare her dowry, and about this matter of the study companion..."

Before Qin Yueshi could finish, Su Pan’er slowly spoke.

"This..."

Qin Yueshi and Qin Yu had clearly not considered this, and they were momentarily stunned, hastily exchanging glances.

Afterward, Qin Yueshi’s demeanor changed immediately.

"Look at what you’re saying, third brother’s wife. Shuang’er has just reached the appropriate age for marriage, why would we be in a hurry? It’s just that now we have a suitable candidate in mind, we thought of keeping an eye out. Better than being caught unprepared later on. But eldest sister-in-law also feels that Shuang’er is still too young, and can’t bear to let her marry off so early. We plan to keep the child by our side for a few more years."

Su Pan’er nodded in satisfaction, chatted idly a bit more with Qin Yueshi, then excused herself, claiming fatigue, and returned to her room.

Before leaving, she glanced at Xiren, then got up and left.

Qin Yu and Qin Yueshi realized they had upset Su Pan’er, but both were confused and had no idea what had just happened.

Seeing Su Pan’er leave, only Xiren was left behind.

Qin Yueshi’s eyes flickered, and she hurriedly went up to Xiren, warmly taking her hand: "I noticed the other day that Er Niu Niu is getting prettier and prettier, I think this hairpin I have should be given to her to play with."

"Eldest Mrs. Qin mustn’t do this," Xiren hastily declined.

"Our young lady doesn’t like these sorts of things. Please take it back, Eldest Mrs. Qin. As your servant attending to the young lady, I dare not irritate her."

"This is my gift to you, even if third brother’s wife found out, she wouldn’t blame you at all, so accept it quickly."

Qin Yueshi kept trying to stuff the hairpin into Xiren’s embrace.

Xiren looked towards the inner room, remembering the glance the young lady had given her, then smiled and accepted the hairpin.

"Since Eldest Mrs. Qin is giving it, I’ll accept it," Xiren replied, her laughter especially joyful: "It’s just that Eldest Mrs. Qin, you’re being too generous."

"We’re all family here, no need to talk about generosity or expense," Qin Yueshi responded.

Seeing Xiren accept the gold hairpin, Qin Yueshi let out a sigh of relief and hurriedly sighed with feigned distress, "Ah! Seeing your child smile is truly delightful. My children are all grown up, what shall I do in the future... It seems I said things that should not have been said, it looks like Third brother’s wife is quite tired indeed. Ah..."

With sighs on her lips, she glanced at Xiren out of the corner of her eye.

Xiren responded with a gentle smile and gracefully bowed, "Eldest Mrs. Qin, you need not worry. Since my young lady was willing to let Eldest Miss Qin stay by Little Miss’s side to study together, the affection she holds for her goes without saying. Especially with Mrs. Qin having a Third Son to escort and protect Eldest Miss Qin, the good days ahead are just waiting to come knocking at your door."

Qin Yueshi looked at her, dazed, as if she hadn’t quite understood.

Xiren inwardly sighed. This couple was indeed too honest.

She quickly lent a light hand to Qin Yueshi, "Considering the abilities of my future son-in-law, Eldest Mrs. Qin’s status is naturally bound to rise as the tide lifts the boat. I shall offer my congratulations to Eldest Mrs. Qin in advance!" Having said that, she bowed deeply again.

Once the future son-in-law ascends to that supreme position, who among those being considered by Eldest Mrs. Qin now would be worthy of such a precious one as Eldest Miss Qin?

She truly did not understand why Eldest Mrs. Qin was in such a rush at this moment.

Finally, Qin Yueshi snapped out of her daze, her face lighting up with inexplicable joy, a delight she could not hide, even her voice quivered!

"What a fool I’ve been!"

She pretended to slap herself and then firmly grasped Xiren’s hand and shook it vigorously, "It turns out that this girl of yours really is capable, no wonder you’re so cherished by Third brother’s wife!"

Qin Yueshi sighed. She really was completely clueless!

Immediately, she postponed all her children’s marriages, called them to her side, gave them repeated exhortations, and then waited at home, content and at peace, no longer speaking of her children’s marriages.

The crowd gathered outside only grew larger, their calls becoming louder and more spirited.

Within the crowd’s eager anticipation, Prince Wei finally arrived, fashionably late.

When Prince Wei stepped down from his carriage, Su Pan’er realized that he was indeed as handsome as the rumors suggested!

More unexpectedly, Prince Wei bore a striking resemblance to Qin Yi. Had Su Pan’er not known that this man was not Qin Yi, she might have thought in another era that he was using Qin Yi as a model for plastic surgery to look like Qin Yi.

But the eyes were different; the feel of the man was different!

Su Pan’er watched him for a good while before she relaxed.

He was not Qin Yi!

Clearly, it wasn’t just Su Pan’er who thought so; the villagers in the crowd, who knew Qin Yi, thought the same!

Upon seeing Prince Wei, someone cried out, "It’s Qin Yi! Qin Yi has returned, Qin Yi has come back!"

The atmosphere in the crowd ignited instantly.

Those at the back of the crowd desperately pushed forward, those at the front couldn’t retreat, and everyone was squeezed together, resulting in chaos!

"Back off, everyone back down! Anyone who dares to cause trouble will be arrested and thrown into prison!"

The officers tasked with maintaining order bellowed and finally managed to quell the crowd’s chaotic momentum.

Prince Wei still wore a faint smile and, seeing Su Pan’er quickly come to her senses, looked somewhat surprised.

A hint of admiration flashed in his eyes, and as the surrounding people shouted, "Qin Yi is back!" he calmly stepped towards Su Pan’er, watching her eyes shift from astonishment to awareness in an instant, which he found rather amusing.
