The next day, An Jiuyue and Qian Jiyun finally found the marrow apricot tree they were looking for.
In fact, there was more than one—there were two! They were of similar age and had thick branches. It was clear they could bloom a lot of flowers.
An Jiuyue promptly decided to dig them up and got ready.
However, Qian Jiyun was stunned when he heard his wife’s decision. He turned to look at her and asked, “Jiuyue, are you serious?”
Am I really going to dig out such a big tree and plant it in Jiuyue’s space? Not one, but two?
Even if I’m a general and very capable, is Jiuyue that confident that I can dig out these big trees alone?
I can chop them down in less than a day and bring them back, but digging them out by their roots is more complicated!
“I’m sure. We’ll take these two trees.” An Jiuyue patted the trunk of one of the trees and nodded. “These marrow apricot trees aren’t very big. If we dig together for two days, we should be able to dig them out, right?”
In reality, she was unsure if two days would be enough for them to dig out the tree. After all, the two trees did seem bigger than she had said.
“You…”
Qian Jiyun opened his mouth when he heard that she was ready to get started.
He shook his head immediately and patted An Jiuyue’s head helplessly.
“I can do it alone. Two days will be enough.”
How could he bear to let her do this laborious task? He would do it alone. At most, he would spend more time here. But then again, two days would be sufficient.
Since he had already decided, he asked An Jiuyue to take out the tools to dig the trees and got ready.
An Jiuyue wanted to help, but he chased her away and asked her to prepare some food for him because he was hungry.
“Alright, I’ll cook something first. I’m hungry too.” An Jiuyue patted her flat stomach and nodded.
She took out a barbecue grill from her microcosmic space. After lighting the charcoal, she began to roast the meat. Soon, the fragrance filled the air.
Meanwhile, Qian Jiyun was moving quickly too.
He had to dig up the roots, but he did not have to dig them up completely. He could cut them off once he had dug them up to a sufficient length.
When An Jiuyue was done roasting the meat, she called Qian Jiyun over to eat.
“I wonder how Yan Nuo is doing,” An Jiuyue muttered as she ate the fragrant roasted meat. She wanted to know if her guess was correct.
“Yan Nuo will investigate the truth.”
Qian Jiyun was not worried about Yan Nuo. He knew what Yan Nuo was capable of and was confident he could handle this matter well.
“Jiuyue, I’ll send you back to the Jade Kite Garden Villa after we dig up the marrow apricot trees. I have to return to the military camp.”
“Don’t!” An Jiuyue looked up from her food immediately. “Are you going to meet Prince Lei Ting? At least bring me along!”
She had only heard about Prince Lei Ting from Qian Jiyun, but she had never seen him. He sounded like a boorish man—she had to meet him.
Qian Jiyun was speechless. It was not like An Jiuyue to join in the fun.
