Chapter 2651: Chapter 2652: Return to Tianyun (218)

Su Yuxin continued to laugh, "I will be nineteen on August 22nd, I’m exactly three years older than you."

Upon hearing Su Yuxin’s words, An Jing inexplicably thought of the saying ’With a woman three years older, it’s like carrying a gold brick.’

Then An Jing thought of Meng Sizhi, so she quickly dismissed this thought from her mind and laughed, "The world is so big and there are so many people, there will always be someone whose birthday is on the same day. If you were born on the same year, same month, same day, then that would truly be a coincidence."

After a pause, to change the topic, An Jing casually asked, "You’re also grown up now, do you have any plans for the future?"

Tao Mingqing respectfully replied, "This commoner plans to take the civil exam, but I’m worried my learning is shallow and I might not pass."

Su Xing laughed and said, "Mother, Ming Qing is being too modest, Ming Qing’s scholarship is actually quite good. He took the civil exam last year and ranked among the top scholars."

When Su Yuxin heard that Tao Mingqing passed the scholar exam, she initially wanted to praise him, but as soon as she opened her mouth to speak, she was met with a cold glare from her grandfather, and she swallowed her words in fear, not daring to say another word.

An Jing laughed, "Too modest indeed."

Tao Mingqing quickly said, "I dare not, I dare not."

"When were you born?" Su Changyi suddenly asked this question, devoid of any emotion.

Being too sudden, Tao Mingqing was stunned for a moment before quickly and respectfully replying, "Replying to the King, this commoner was born at exactly the hour Wei on August 22nd of XX year."

Su Yuxin exclaimed again, "I was also born at exactly the hour Wei!"

Tao Mingqing was stunned.

An Jing, Su Xing, and Taoming Ye were all slightly stunned too, thinking it was too coincidental and feeling a bit eerie.

Su Changyi just narrowed his eyes slightly but didn’t say anything more.

After An Jing and the others had lunch at Tao Mansion, they returned to the Royal Palace, and on the way back, An Jing advised, "Yuxin, better not tell Sizhi about all these coincidences between you and the Fifth Young Master of the Tao family, to prevent him from overthinking. You know how Sizhi is overly thoughtful."

Su Yuxin immediately became unhappy, "Grandmother, you clearly promised me not to talk about me and Meng Sizhi anymore, yet you’re talking about it again? Besides, I can’t control if he overthinks, but I have a straightforward personality, I always speak my mind, I don’t care if he might overthink."

An Jing sighed, "I’m doing this for the good of you and Sizhi. Reasonably speaking, Sizhi likes you, shouldn’t he want to marry you soon to prevent others from coveting you? Why isn’t he in a hurry? I really don’t understand. Look at your father and your uncles, once they were sure of their feelings, didn’t they rush to marry their beloved? Unlike Sizhi, whenever the topic of you two comes up, he just smiles and says nothing."

Su Yuxin said, "If he had half the qualities of my father and my uncles, even if he said nothing, I would pursue him to marry. Does he have that?"

An Jing laughed, "Seems like you’re not that satisfied with him?"

Su Yuxin replied, "Anyway, I said it but you don’t believe it, forget it, no more talk."

An Jing helplessly laughed while looking at her husband, Su Changyi. Seeing her husband lost in thought, not hearing her and Su Yuxin’s conversation, she asked, "Husband, what are you thinking about? So absorbed?"

Su Changyi said blandly, "It’s somewhat eerie."

As soon as An Jing heard this, she knew what he was talking about and instantly fell silent.
