Chapter 291: Chapter 291 She doesn’t know whether to praise him or call him foolish..._1

"Brother Yi probably ran back here because he couldn’t stand Father Emperor always trying to arrange marriages for him. With Brother Yi like this, we naturally worry that he might end up lonely for life."

Pausing, Su Chengyu laughed and said, "Now, with Sister-in-law’s company, even without children, it’s better than ending up alone."

An Jing broke into a sweat. Had the fact that she hadn’t had her period also reached the Emperor’s ears?

But the problem was, she was having her period now...

"Jing Er, the sweet potatoes are ready, you can eat now," Xiao Changyi said, as though he hadn’t heard any of Su Chengyu’s remarks, as he pulled the roasted sweet potatoes out from the fire pit, selecting the largest one for An Jing.

Xiao Changyi gave the smallest sweet potato to Su Chengyu.

An Jing: "..."

Yet Su Chengyu seemed to be happy as anything.

An Jing: "..." This Crown Prince, she didn’t know whether to say he was kind or silly...

Su Chengyu, not at all disdained, peeled the sweet potato, took a bite, and laughed, "This sweet potato is very sweet."

As An Jing split her large sweet potato in half, giving half to her husband and keeping the other half for herself, she casually asked, "Have you ever eaten sweet potatoes before?"

Su Chengyu said, "I have, during the war. When we ran out of food in the military, all we had were sweet potatoes."

An Jing was startled, "You’ve also fought in wars?"

"Hmm," nodded Su Chengyu, "but I’ve only been in one battle, and I almost dragged Brother Yi down. Fortunately, he realized something was wrong in time and turned the situation around for victory."

An Jing finally understood completely why Su Chengyu let her husband be so unrestrained. It wasn’t only because her husband had merits in Xiyun, nor solely because he had once saved him, but more so because they had gone through life and death together on the battlefield.

The Emperor felt the same way.

"When are you leaving?" Xiao Changyi suddenly asked, his tone devoid of any emotional fluctuation.

An Jing: "..." Darling, are you trying to send someone away?

Su Chengyu’s reply was warmly cheerful, "I’ll stay here for one night before returning to the Capital."

An Jing: "..." We don’t have a room to accommodate you, Crown Prince!

Instead of keeping his thoughts to himself like An Jing, Xiao Changyi spoke up directly: "We don’t have a place for you to stay."

Yet Su Chengyu’s reply remained warm and cheerful, "Just find a spot anywhere in your home where I can set up a bed to sleep."

An Jing: "..." You’re not staying in your comfortable East Palace but coming to this remote place, and now you want to stay in such poor conditions...?

Xiao Changyi still refused to give in, "Sixteen Town isn’t far; you can stay at an inn there."

Su Chengyu knew that Xiao Changyi was determined not to let him stay, so he turned to An Jing, "Sister-in-law, I’ve come all this way to see you, and you’re making me stay at an inn?"

An Jing felt that both reason and emotion dictated that they should offer a place to stay, but, "Our place really is too humble; you’d better—"

Su Chengyu, still smiling, cut her off: "I don’t mind."

With the Crown Prince himself not minding, what else could An Jing say? She could only nod and reply, "Then you can stay, and we’ll set up a bed by the stove for you later tonight. Have your men keep an eye on the fire so you won’t freeze."

"At least Sister-in-law is considerate," Su Chengyu was very pleased to stay. "I had heard before how Brother Yi dotes on you enormously, and now that I see it, it’s certainly true."

An Jing just smiled. Her husband really did dote on her immensely.

While Su Chengyu’s face bore a gentle smile, his heart pondered, No wonder his Brother Yi took a fancy to such a country girl; what part of her looks like a country girl?
