“Yes, but that’s not the important thing,” Huo Sanyan nodded. “I’ve realized how important Ye Xun is to me and have decided to be with him for the rest of my life. We are going to get married once he comes back from the war.”
“Really?” Jing Xi exclaimed. “Then we have to get ready!”
“You’re right. I’ll make sure everything is well-prepared when he returns.”
Huo Sanyan used to not believe in marriage, but now, she was looking forward to it. She now had someone she had to marry, no matter what happened.
“Congratulations!” Jing Xi smiled. “I’m going to help you with your preparations too. I’ll have to make a list of what we need to prepare.”
“Oh, about that. Ye Gongzi already made one,” Huo Sanyan said. “He gave me a notebook with the names of a few stores inside. Are you free tomorrow? I want to get a wedding dress ready first.”
“Of course! Can you come and pick me up tomorrow?”
“Sure thing.”
Huo Sanyan stayed at the palace for dinner after that.
Jing Xi conveyed the good news to Huo Yunshen and the children at the dining table.
Huo Yunshen was surprised to hear the news but felt relieved at the same time.
When their parents were still alive, they were always worried about Huo Sanyan not getting married. Now that she was, Huo Yunshen believed that their parents would give their blessings to her from heaven.
“Who is auntie going to marry?” Little Grape asked, worried that Huo Sanyan was not going to marry Ye Xun.
“Oh, you know him.” Jing Xi smiled. “It’s your Uncle Treeleaf.”
“Really?” Little Grape asked as his eyes widened. “I thought auntie always said that Uncle Treeleaf is a stone without feelings.”
“…” Huo Sanyan did not know how to explain to the little boy. She still remembered when the children were helping Ye Xun to propose, she told them she would never marry him because he was a stone.
“But there is a special stone,” Jing Xi smiled and explained. “It’s called a flint stone. When you hit two flint stones together, sparks can be produced. Your auntie and Uncle Treeleaf are like flint stones, and together, they produce sparks of love.”
Jing Xi’s easy explanation was able to convince her son.
Since Ying Bao was older and more mature than any of her siblings, she understood why her father looked glad.
“Looks like my auntie is getting married soon.” Ying Bao let out a sigh. “At least you won’t become an old maid or something.”
“…” Huo Sanyan was even more speechless after that. She wondered if the children had been looking at her like that for the whole time.
Realizing that even the kids were looking down on her, Huo Sanyan was relieved that she was going to get married soon.
…
Huo Sanyan woke up early the next day and went to pick Jing Xi up at the palace before heading to the bridal shop listed in Ye Xun’s notebook.
Jing Xi wore a mask so that she could hide her identity.
When they walked into the store, the friendly attendant first asked if they had a reservation.
“My husband… Ye Xun, he said he’d made a booking here,” Huo Sanyan said.
“Then, I presume you must be Miss Huo?”
