Peaceful Farm Life

Chapter 1050: Chapter 1051: So You Are This...

After having grilled fish and some other food, An Jing and Xiao Changyi lay down on the grass with their four children to watch the blue sky and white clouds.

Meng Zhuqing and Qin Er, while cleaning up the leftovers, kept their eyes on their surroundings.

Gong Juechen stretched by the river and took a leisurely stroll, then, seeing An Jing and the others lying on the grass, he too went and lay down.

However, because Xiao Changyi felt he was lying too close and somewhat disrupting the coziness of their family of six, he gave Gong Juechen a look that urged him to lie a bit farther away.

The four little ones also obediently lay down for a while before they began crawling all over the grass—not just onto Xiao Changyi but onto An Jing and even towards Gong Juechen.

When Gong Juechen saw the four little ones crawling towards him, he closed his eyes, pretending to sleep until the children got close; then, he suddenly sat up and made a scary face at them, startling the children into crawling back hurriedly.

As they crawled back, they also giggled.

Then, they snuggled into An Jing’s and Xiao Changyi’s arms, laughing even more unabashedly at Gong Juechen.

Clearly, they had been scared initially but also found Gong Juechen’s antics amusing.

While the atmosphere was quite pleasant there, at General Han’s residence, it was not so great.

”Brother, he fell into the water and is soaking wet, yet he isn’t taking off his clothes to dry?” Han Xinrui couldn’t comprehend at all.

Han Xinche said irritably, ”Didn’t I tell you? He’s a weird one, claims drying it on his body saves the trouble of putting it on again.”

Han Xinrui was speechless...

After a moment, Han Xinrui said with a worried expression, ”Such a good opportunity and we didn’t see if there’s a birthmark on his waist, how can we ever find out...”

Han Xinche was also worried but still added, ”I’ve secretly inquired, Gong Juechen also has a sister named Gong Juese, who is now Meng Lanqing’s wife and has borne him a son. According to the spy, neither Gong Juechen nor Gong Juese knows their parents and were raised by a master in the mountains... All signs indicate that he might really be our grandnephew.”

Han Xinrui responded, ”But brother, didn’t you say not to jump to conclusions? Then what is this...?”

Han Xinche said, ”What I mean is, with such a high probability, we absolutely need to find a way to check if there is a birthmark on Gong Juechen’s waist.”

”Understood!” exclaimed Han Xinrui. He sighed, ”It’s a pity we don’t know any distinguishing features of our grandniece, or we could start from her to find out.”

Han Xinche explained, ”The spy also reported that Gong Juese’s martial arts skills are formidable. Even Meng Zhuqing and Meng Lanqing together could not easily handle her, so even if we knew something about our grandniece’s characteristics, it would be hard to start from Gong Juese.”

Han Xinrui was very surprised. ”Her martial arts skills are that advanced?!”

Han Xinche nodded affirmatively. Then, frowning and pondering, he said, ”We only know our grandnephew has a birthmark, regardless, we can only start from Gong Juechen. The method of having him voluntarily take off his clothes for us to see doesn’t seem viable; he’s too bizarre to be judged by normal standards. I think I should make a visit to the General’s residence tonight.”
