The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 2424: Chapter 15: Meng Yunzheng’s Advice

But both of them are still young, and those around them have thought about introducing them to another match.

At first, no one connected them together.

Although Wei Qin is Meng Yunzheng’s Cousin-Sister-in-law, neither Meng Yunzheng nor Shu Yu would interfere in her feelings and marriage situation.

She’s still so young, just in her early twenties, and it’s completely normal at this age to find another companion.

However, those suggesting matches to Wei Qin were all rejected by her.

She and Song Le had been separated for five years, and just found each other again, wanting to rely on him and make up for the time not spent together in recent years.

Therefore, after returning, Wei Qin quickly found work in Shu Yu’s workshop.

Not only that, she also rented a house at the foot of the mountain. After all, Xiao Song Le was only five years old then, and didn’t need to stay in the academy; he would come back after classes every day.

The mother and son ate together in the house at the foot of the mountain, talked about everything, and shared their expectations for the future.

She simply didn’t think of finding someone else.

Chang Jiayi felt the same, his daughter was timid, always hiding from strangers. If he were to marry again, Xiao’e might get trapped in her own world, unable to break free.

He just wanted to take good care of his daughter. After all, he worked in the academy, and his daughter didn’t need someone else to take care of her, she ate at the academy’s canteen daily. At home, it’s just the two of them, and he could manage everything.

Both were wholly devoted to their children, and even if they knew each other, they had no other thoughts.

But some feelings subtly elevate through day-to-day interactions.

Wei Qin found Chang Jiayi quite uncommon; a man who took care of his daughter so perfectly, was courteous, and had great demeanor.

Chang Jiayi admired Wei Qin; she was courageous, exposing a rebel and ended up stab twice, yet could calmly set fire and hide away, waiting for rescue. Her character was very resilient, always holding a belief in her heart.

They appreciated each other, but neither broke this barrier.

They… still had to consider their children.

In the end, Little Song Le, being clever, already noticed something unusual.

He went to Xiao’e to ask what she thought. Naturally, Xiao’e liked Wei Qin. Over the years, her favorite woman was Wei Qin, and she often envied that Song Le had such a beautiful and gentle mother. Occasionally at midnight, she would imagine being cuddled to sleep as a daughter by Wei Qin.

Thus, with the support of the two children, Chang Jiayi broke this barrier.

At the start of this year, he asked the matchmaker to propose.

Wei Qin no longer had contacts with the Wei family in the capital, so the Meng family served as her mother’s side.

Meng Yunzheng had a good impression of Chang Jiayi; this person was diligent, responsible, and meticulous in doing things. He once asked him if he wanted to take another scholarly examination, offering a chance to work while studying at the academy.

After thinking for half a day, Chang Jiayi declined. If he were alone, working while studying would naturally be fine.

Even if Xiao’e were like other children, he would try and see.

But Xiao’e was sensitive, and these few years were crucial. If Chang Jiayi studied while working, it would be impossible not to neglect his daughter. He didn’t want the past tragedy to happen again, and he chose family over ambition.

Meng Yunzheng didn’t force him, only advised him, if he had the energy not to abandon books, even if he didn’t aim higher, there would be a different treatment if he became a scholar eventually.
