The Lucky Farm Girl

```

Seeing the joy on Chen Siyuan's face, Yang Mengchen let out a silent sigh. Chen Siyuan always kept his feelings hidden; it was not for her to reveal them, so she could only intentionally or unintentionally avoid him. She had thought he would let go eventually, but unexpectedly...

"Brother Siyuan, Prince Chen and I are in mutual affection. He has already asked the Emperor for permission to marry me; however, the Emperor believes that my identity as a farmer's daughter is not suitable for Prince Chen, thus he opposes our marriage;

My brothers cannot bear to see me slighted, so they deliberately held a public suitor selection to provoke Prince Chen and to test the Emperor's attitude;

Now that Brother Siyuan understands the reason, please refrain from getting involved in this matter to avoid damaging your reputation. Today, Brother Siyuan came to discuss business matters with Sixth Brother, and there's nothing else. Is that right, Brother Siyuan?"

Chen Siyuan's joy on his face froze, his heart ached as if cut by a knife, and his eyes were dim with resentment: Did he really not have a chance?

Yang Mengchen believed that Chen Siyuan was a husband worth entrusting her life to, but her heart already belonged to Long Xuanmo; moreover, she did not wish to hurt Chen Siyuan. Now that everything was out in the open, it was a good time to make things clear with Chen Siyuan.

After all, it is better to end the pain quickly than to let it drag on, hoping that Chen Siyuan could let go and find his own happiness.

"Prince Chen and I have already promised ourselves to each other; even if everyone opposes us, we will never let go of one another;

In my heart, I have always regarded Brother Siyuan as an older brother, and I hope this brotherly affection will continue forever;

Brother Siyuan is a model of talent, intelligent and capable, as well as steady and simple. Many women adore him, and I believe that Brother Siyuan will certainly find a gentle and virtuous woman to love him for a lifetime."

Gazing deeply at the woman he had loved for over a decade, Chen Siyuan, despite the pain in his heart, did not wish to force her into even the slightest obligation. Well, as long as she was happy and content, he would let go.

"Ah Jiu, I will always be your brother. If Prince Chen dares to bully you, just tell me. I will not let him off easily." Chen Siyuan's face bore his usual gentle smile: "I am going to discuss business matters with Chenghong. Ah Jiu, you should rest well." After speaking, he stood up to bid farewell and left.

Watching Chen Siyuan's retreating figure, Yang Mengchen sighed.

Hai Tang came in: "Miss, the Prince is here, at the front gate now."

Yang Mengchen's eyes softened, and she then proceeded to the front courtyard with Sister Jin and several others, hearing from afar a suppressed yet authoritative voice full of anger.

"You're too tall, you're too short, you're too fat, you're too thin, you're too dark, you're too pale, you're unlearned, you're deceitful and cunning... all disqualified!"

After not seeing him for nearly two months, she did not expect Long Xuanmo to become more unscrupulous. Yang Mengchen arched her eyebrows, a hint of a smile flashing in her eyes.

And Sister Jin and the others lowered their heads slightly, trying hard to hide the smiles on their faces, but everyone's shoulders were shaking.

Seeing Yang Mengchen arrive, the people gathered inside the gate all looked at her with smiles and felt a sense of relief. Long Xuanmo's timely arrival sufficiently demonstrated his deep affection for Yang Mengchen, also indicating that the Emperor's stance had somewhat softened.

At the gate, Long Xuanmo stood tall, exuding an air of invincibility. The bustling crowd that had been outside the gate was now nowhere to be seen.

Yang Mengchen, hiding her amusement, feigned annoyance: "Prince, you've driven everyone away. How am I supposed to choose a husband?"

"I'd like to see who dares to marry you. I won't mind sending him to the Underworld as the groom!" Long Xuanmo turned and gazed at the woman he longed for day and night, his deep voice tinged with a grinding tone.

Initially, the Emperor had said that when he returned from quelling the bandits in Changshan Prefecture, he would consider the marriage between him and Ah Jiu. That's why he had to leave.

Who knew that upon his victorious return, the Emperor kept making excuses, and Princes Jing and Duan also interfered. If it weren't for Ah Jiu's words, that a marriage without parental approval would not be happy, he would not have cared about the Emperor and would have directly sought her hand in marriage.
