Wang Wulang separated with everyone at the courier station and completely went on another path. He would wait for King Xiaoyao to meet him at the next agreed-upon town before heading to Jiangsai, which was more than 3,000 li away.
In the two days after he left, no one spoke much. The atmosphere was a little heavy, and they were all worried about him.
However, everyone comforted each other and slowly accepted this fact. Even Wang Sanlang was deep in thought.
Wei Qianying was in the same carriage as Wang Sanlang. She was an extremely gentle young lady from a wealthy family. During this period of time, she had been interacting with her younger siblings and was even more envious of the way the Wang Family interacted.
“Husband, what is your heart’s desire?” Wei Qianying said gently, “Regardless of whether you want to make a name for yourself in Wanning City or be like Wulang or Second Uncle, 1 will always follow you and support you.”
Wang Sanlang held Wei Qianying’s hand and patted it gently. He felt his wife’s soft hands and couldn’t help but find it funny.
His wife is the daughter of the county governor. From her hands, he could tell that she must have been pampered since she was young. Even if she had the bearing of a young lady from a wealthy family, she must have been doted on by her family and slowly raised up.
With such a wife, how could he bear to bring her to suffer?
“I’m not afraid of making a fool of myself if I say it out loud. I don’t have any firm thoughts now. Grandma asked us to study, so I’ll study. 1 want to be like Second Uncle in the future and become an official after passing the imperial civil service examination. Or if I’m lucky, I can continue to study in the Imperial College or be on duty at the Hanlin Academy.”
At this point, a trace of confusion appeared in Wang Sanlang’s eyes, but it quickly dissipated because he recalled Ah Yu’s encouragement to him back then.
Ah Yu had once said that Third Brother was a person who could adapt to everything quickly.
In the past, he felt that he had no goals or plans and lived his life in a daze.
Now that he thought about it, perhaps he was such a person who could adapt quickly to anything he encountered. No matter if fate had given him something good or bad, he would not complain, let alone be depressed.
Wasn’t this also a kind of talent?
“Husband, no matter what kind of person you decide to become, I’ll be by your side,” Wei Qianying said.
“Yes, actually, I’m thinking that Wulang has already grown up and wants to make a contribution and be a good Big Brother. 1 shouldn’t continue to live my life in a daze. I also want to be a good son to Mother, a good Big Brother to Ah Yu—” Wang Sanlang looked at Wei Qianying and said word by word, “And a good husband to you and a good father to our child in the future.”
Wei Qianying’s face immediately turned red as she rebuked, “…It’s still early.”
They were newlyweds, and she was not used to discussing this.
Time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, everyone had returned to Wanning City and everything was on track again.
Every morning, Qin Huai’s carriage would appear at Ah Yu’s door on time to pick her up. The two of them would go to the Imperial City together.
They would separate in front of the last hall in the Imperial City. One would go to the Hanlin Academy, and the other to the Astrology Divination Bureau.
In the first few days, everyone would still have some complaints and feel that it wasn’t appropriate for the two of them to walk together.
Later, it was revealed that they were a pre-engaged young couple. Seeing a young man who had already become a Compiler in the Hanlin Academy and another who was the Commander of the Astrology Department, they became silent.
Outstanding people were really outstanding in everything, including finding an outstanding partner for themselves early.
It was precisely because of this that some young people in the Imperial College who discovered Ah Yu were greatly disappointed and regretful when they found out that she already had a fiance.
They thought that they could get close to her and propose marriage to this young lady in the future, but now, it was all for nothing.
No matter how capable, knowledgeable, and talented they were, could they compare to a 13-year-old top scholar?!
On this day, just as Ah Yu arrived at the Astrology Divination Bureau, she heard Auntie Fatty hurriedly say to her, “Commander, bad news.. Someone is looking for trouble!”
