After transmigrating into the body of a widow, I became the richest man in the capital.

Chapter 283 Pei Yuan's Promised Wedding

Upon seeing this, Pei Yuan quickly glared at him and said, "I'm not dead yet! What are you doing? You look so dejected. Just go back to how you were before, eat whatever you want, do whatever you want. Don't be such a spoilsport, okay?"

At this moment, Bei Yan quickly put away her dejected face and began to stuff her mouth with the meat, vegetables and other delicious things on the table. What was this all about!

"Bei Yan, eat slowly, don't choke."

Su Xiaoxiao thought to herself, "Bei Yan is really obedient. If his master tells him to go east, he will never go west."

After the fifth day of the lunar new year, Pei Yuan will be recalled to the front lines to fight.

Pei Yuan was much quieter during dinner tonight.

Seeing that Pei Yuan's lips were still pale, Su Xiaoxiao was actually very worried about his health.

"How about I go to the front lines with you?"

Pei Yuan didn't speak, but leaned against the bed and beckoned Su Xiaoxiao to come over.

"Leaving tomorrow morning."

Although she didn't want to hear the news, Su Xiaoxiao had no choice but to accept it.

"Leaving so soon?"

"What's wrong? You can't bear to part with me?"

When Pei Yuan showed that expression again, Su Xiaoxiao shyly turned her face away, but Pei Yuan pulled her into his arms.

“The military camp is not a place you can stay. Besides, war is very dangerous, and in principle, you are not allowed to bring your family members.”

Su Xiaoxiao knew, of course, that if soldiers brought their female relatives along when they were fighting on the front lines, it would affect their morale.

After a pause, Pei Yuan said to Su Xiaoxiao, "I like it here. The idyllic life here suits me perfectly. This battle will be almost over by tomorrow spring, and I will come back to live with you then. We will also have a wedding together. I will resign from my position as Grand General and never return to the capital."

Su Xiaoxiao was deeply moved after hearing this, and she rested her head against Pei Yuan's chest again.

Although Su Xiaoxiao didn't want to separate from Pei Yuan, she also knew that Pei Yuan was determined this time.

For Su Xiaoxiao's sake, and for the sake of the children, he will end this battle as soon as possible and then return to her side.

Su Xiaoxiao trusted Pei Yuan completely; she believed that he would always do what he said he would do.

Thinking that Pei Yuan would no longer have to be transferred to the front lines to fight at any time, Su Xiaoxiao felt inexplicably at ease.

"Are you sleepy? Keep me company for a while. I've cooked dinner tonight, so you don't have to worry about it."

"Are you going to cook?"

Su Xiaoxiao was very surprised and looked up at Pei Yuan.

"Really? You didn't think I've never even been in the kitchen, did you?"

But Su Xiaoxiao was genuinely worried about what kind of disastrous dish Pei Yuan would make, so she looked at Pei Yuan in disbelief.

"Are you underestimating me? When I was on the front lines, I often had to cook for myself. Although it wasn't as good as yours, it was still edible, okay?"

"Really? I'm afraid you'll make some kind of culinary disaster!"

"What darkness?"

"Stop talking, I'm waiting for you to make something delicious. I'm sleepy, I'm going to take a nap."

Su Xiaoxiao really felt quite tired. She hadn't gotten over Pei Yuan's poisoning yet, and even felt a bit physically and mentally exhausted. She was worried about Pei Yuan's health and wondered if he was just pretending to be strong in front of her. Even a renowned doctor like Mr. Li had to shake his head at the sight of the poison in his body.

If it's really as Pei Yuan said, will everything be alright?

Su Xiaoxiao didn't believe it, but there was nothing she could do. She prayed that Pei Yuan would return from the battlefield soon. She was willing to abandon her family business to accompany Pei Yuan to the hospital to cure his poison. Thinking about this, Su Xiaoxiao felt a deep resentment towards the Emperor. If it weren't for him, why would Pei Yuan have been summoned to the front lines?

When Su Xiaoxiao woke up, she found that the curtains in the room were all drawn, and it was dark outside.

Pei Yuan wasn't around, so Su Xiaoxiao got up and went to the kitchen, where she found him busy at work.

Seeing Pei Yuan's busy figure made Su Xiaoxiao think that he actually seemed to have a certain air about him.

Does he actually know how to cook?

But after watching for a while, Su Xiaoxiao felt that Pei Yuan was just all show and no substance; he couldn't cook anything and probably burned all the dishes.

The meat was also half-cooked by him, and Su Xiaoxiao shouted, "Stop! Don't waste any more food!"

Su Xiaoxiao felt so bad that Pei Yuan was wasting all the food in her kitchen. It was hard to say that all the food was being wasted by Pei Yuan.

Su Xiaoxiao kicked Pei Yuan out of the kitchen, leaving Pei Yuan feeling extremely helpless.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Da Bao and Xiao Bao quickly pulled Pei Yuan to play games together.

Xiao Bao clung to Pei Yuan and swung on the swing.

Da Bao wasn't going to be outdone, and he grabbed Pei Yuan's body and started climbing upwards, something that really made Su Xiaoxiao jealous.

Is Su Xiaoxiao really starting to get jealous of even the children now? I still can't figure out why.

When Xiao Bao got tired of playing, he said to Pei Yuan in a spoiled manner, "Daddy, I want to sleep with you tonight."

"This……"

Pei Yuan glanced at Su Xiaoxiao, whose face was flushed and heart was pounding the whole time. For some reason, she was worried, as this was Pei Yuan's last day at home.

"No, Father and Mother will stay together today, but I'm leaving tomorrow."

"What? Father is leaving tomorrow?"

"um, yes."

When Da Bao found out, he was the first to shed tears, and Xiao Bao cried too.

It seems that their feelings for Pei Yuan are genuine, and both children feel very sorry for him.

Fearing that something might happen to Pei Yuan, Da Bao suddenly looked up at Pei Yuan and said, "Dad, I hope that after you come back, you and Mom will prepare a big wedding, a lively one in the village, so that the whole village can come and attend your wedding."

Pei Yuan couldn't help but laugh at Da Bao's words. In the child's eyes, a big wedding meant that the whole village could attend.

"Dabao, I'm going to have a bigger wedding, so that everyone in our country will know and come to bless us."

Su Xiaoxiao was stunned when she heard this. What was this person thinking? Why did he have to let the whole country know?

"Yes, when the time comes, you'll give me a few younger brothers and sisters so I can play with them."

Xiao Bao tilted his head back, his bright eyes sparkling, and said innocently.

Su Xiaoxiao blushed.

"Okay, your mother and I will work hard to give you lots and lots of younger brothers and sisters so you can play football together."

Su Xiaoxiao playfully punched Pei Yuan in the chest, but Pei Yuan grabbed her wrist.

"Come on, let's hurry."

With that, he picked Su Xiaoxiao up horizontally and carried her into their bedroom.
