Chapter 1041: The Pei Family (48)
"What are you laughing at?" Yang Ruxin nudged Gu Qingheng’s stomach gently with her elbow.
"I’ve told you before, only the Crown Prince, princes, and Commandery Princes have their own exclusive guards. If I were to cultivate a private army, people would accuse me of plotting a rebellion..." Gu Qingheng rested his chin on Yang Ruxin’s shoulder, "Do you want to be Empress?"
"Not interested." Yang Ruxin also smiled, "I’m just a village girl, and I plan to stay true to my village girl nature till the end... Being the Empress is too troublesome..."
"If you’re being a village girl, then I’ll be your mountain man..."
"Hey, can you two lovebirds find a more secluded spot?" Just then, Yu Qingge’s voice came from behind, "All this hugging and cuddling is not decent."
Yang Ruxin couldn’t help but roll her eyes, wriggling out from Gu Qingheng’s embrace: "You have nothing better to do than to spy on us, not afraid of getting sty in your eyes?"
"Not afraid." Yu Qingge shook her head and then put on a gossipy expression, "Sis, Uncle Xiaowu and that Pei... Auntie Pei seem to really hit it off. I just took a peek, and Auntie Pei was crying, and Uncle Xiaowu was pretty good at consoling her..."
"You little brat never learn anything good." Yang Ruxin went over and gave Yu Qingge a noogie, "Learning to eavesdrop, are you?"
"Isn’t Uncle Xiaowu’s happiness our family’s priority right now?" Yu Qingge said aggrievedly, rubbing her head, "Shouldn’t we pay some attention to it? Besides, it was Mengmeng’s idea..."
Yang Ruxin let out a breath, speechless.
