Chapter 44 -44 Why are you laughing? So happy_1
Sister An Jing’s smile widened as she countered with a question, “If I weren’t willing, would I be sitting here?”
Xiao Changyi didn’t speak but lifted his hand, gently touching her head. Seeing that she just looked at him, letting him touch her head, and didn’t drink the water, he softly said, “Drink the water.”
Only then did An Jing take a drink, but she did not finish it, drinking only half of the bowl. Then, she passed the remaining half back to him with a smile, “I allow you to continue indirectly kissing me.”
Xiao Changyi, who subconsciously took the half bowl of water: “…” Was she addicted to teasing him?
Just then, Liu Sanya’s voice came from the courtyard: “Brother Yi, Sister An Jing, are you home?”
Anjing stretched her neck to look outside the main room, and saw Liu Sanya standing at the entrance of the courtyard, adhering to etiquette, not daring to rashly enter.
As for Liu Sanya, An Jing’s impression of her was neither particularly good nor bad.
Bad? Liu Sanya had never mocked Lin Anjing for being unable to have children; but good? Whenever everyone else mocked Lin Anjing for the same reason, Liu Sanya never spoke up for her and even stood aside to watch.
However, Liu Sanya’s father, Old Hunter Liu, was indebted to Xiao Changyi, and just for that, An Jing wasn’t going to make too much of it, instead calling out, “We’re here.”
She knew that if she didn’t respond loudly enough for the surrounding people to hear, Liu Sanya, a girl who was not yet married, would not dare to enter. Such were the social norms here: women could not just enter someone’s home, and they certainly couldn’t be alone with a man.
If Xiao Changyi had answered and Liu Sanya had entered, but An Jing wasn’t there, then once the word spread, it would be impossible for Liu Sanya to get married.
Hearing An Jing’s voice, Liu Sanya felt reassured and entered the courtyard.
While An Jing was watching Liu Sanya, she inadvertently noticed her man drinking water out of the corner of her eye—the same half-bowl she had teasingly allowed him to use for their indirect kiss.
“Pfft~” An Jing couldn’t help but burst into laughter. Her husband was normally so aloof, yet how could she find him so cute~
Xiao Changyi knew what she was laughing at, but he didn’t mind and continued to drink his water with a calm, emotionless face.
It was Liu Sanya who, upon entering the main room and seeing An Jing laughing, asked in confusion, “Sister An Jing, what are you laughing at? You seem so happy.”
“It’s nothing.” The cute side of her husband was enough for her to know, no need for others. “Sanya, why are you here at this time? Is there something you need from us?”
Liu Sanya then excitedly said, “I heard Sister Dahua say that you bought a bright red cloth worth thirty coins per foot for the wedding garments, so I came to have a look. I’ve never seen such expensive cloth.”
Niu Dahua, that gossip!
Before An Jing could speak, she heard Liu Sanya say, “Sister Dahua also said that Brother Yi has struck it rich, buying a whole fourteen feet of that bright red cloth at thirty coins per foot!”
No wonder the villagers’ looks were so complicated when they saw them just now.
At this moment, An Jing understood and instead of being angry, she laughed, “Do you believe it?”
Being smiled at by An Jing like this, Liu Sanya immediately lost her previous excitement, even becoming a bit nervous, lowering her head, twisting her handkerchief in her fingers, and stammering, “I… I didn’t believe it at first, but Sister Dahua spoke as if it were the truth…”

An Jing glanced at Xiao Changyi, who had not spoken since Liu Sanya had come in, and then said with deep meaning, “I don’t know if my Brother Yi has struck it rich, but I do know that we indeed bought fourteen feet of bright red cloth at thirty coins per foot.”
