The Favored Little Peasant Seizes the Heroine's Script!-Chapter 419 - 409: Involution!

"Getting engaged and then canceling it, regardless of whose fault it is, is not a good thing for Jiaojiao."

"This idea is a bit lacking!"

Yuan Yindi still hopes that Yuan Bao can have a good match.

He’s good friends with Wei Wushang, so naturally, he knows of Wei Wushang’s circumstances. If it weren’t for those repeated accidents that saddled Wei Wushang with the reputation of being unlucky for his wives, with Wei Wushang’s status and position, would he still be unmarried at such an old age?

As of now, Wei Wushang himself has given up on the idea of marrying, thinking that he might have to adopt one of his cousin’s sons to carry on the family line.

If Yuan Bao ends up in the same situation as Wei Wushang, Yuan Yindi is absolutely unwilling to see that happen.

"Uncle, what’s wrong with that?"

Yuan Bao doesn’t see anything wrong with it at all, "Even if I don’t get married in the future, then so be it. One person can live just fine!"

In fact, Yuan Bao hasn’t really worried about whether she’ll be able to marry in the future.

With the body of a child and the soul of an adult, it’s almost making her feel schizophrenic.

"Nonsense!"

Upon hearing Yuan Bao’s words, Yuan Yindi’s face immediately fell, "How can a girl not get married?"

"You’ve been smart since you were little, smarter than most kids."

"So you should think carefully about the future!"

Yuan Yindi looked at Yuan Bao seriously, with a truly solemn expression, "Right now, we’re all here, everything can be discussed, but in the future, when your sister Ruan and I are gone, and Shouqian and Shouxun have started their own families, how will you manage by yourself?"

"Uncle, you’re thinking too far ahead!"

Yuan Bao didn’t expect Yuan Yindi to think so far into the future.

In fact, it’s not that Yuan Bao hasn’t thought about the future. As someone who has traveled from the future, Yuan Bao has seen many women marrying throughout their lives.

She doesn’t know if those women have ever regretted it, but from what she understands, those single women eat their fill without worrying about others.

In the future, with the rise of women’s rights, women can support themselves, so they obviously don’t need to depend on men, so why get married? When you’re single, you’re a princess, but once you’re married, you might become a nanny, so why bother?

In this current timeline, men are superior to women.

No matter how exceptional a woman is, once she’s married, she has to follow the three obediences and four virtues and support her husband and teach the children.

Right now, she’s still Princess Jiafu, with a salary and land; why should she get married?

If she can really avoid marriage through this engagement and cancellation plan, it might not necessarily be a bad thing.

Of course, these thoughts are something Yuan Bao still can’t share with her uncle and sister Ruan. After all, this ideological gap is more than just a few hundred years, it’s a difference of a thousand years.

"Without foresight, one will have worries at hand!"

Yuan Yindi looked at Yuan Bao earnestly, "Let’s not rush into this; let me make some inquiries with His Majesty."

"If there’s truly no other way, we’ll have to temporarily use this delay tactic!"

Compared to marrying into the royal family, Yuan Yindi prefers this self-defaming method.

After saying this, Yuan Yindi exchanged a look with Ruan Wan.

Their coordination showed they were indeed a couple.

Ruan Wan noticed Yuan Yindi’s look and immediately understood what he meant, so she took Yuan Bao’s hand and said, "Jiaojiao, can you listen to us on this matter?"

"Sister Ruan, even if I say no, does it make a difference?"

Yuan Bao has become quite skillful, and she now sees through her uncle and Ruan’s exchanges clearly.

"Of course not!"

Ruan Wan laughed out loud.

Such matters are determined by parental orders and matchmaker’s words.

Even though Yuan Bao is quite special now, in the face of the broader situation, she can’t possibly defy it with just her own strength.

However, compared to most daughters from ordinary families, Yuan Bao has quite a bit of freedom.

At least, Yuan Yindi and Ruan Wan won’t force her into anything, even if it’s a parental order.

Frankly, Yuan Bao’s marriage affair is ultimately in her own hands; it’s just that the process must follow the current trend.

"Sister Ruan, Uncle, instead of talking about my matter, shouldn’t we discuss your eldest son!"

Having been teasingly laughed at by Ruan Wan, Yuan Bao feels a little frustrated but quickly counters.

"What’s wrong with Shouqian?"

Yuan Yindi was taken aback, unsure what his eldest son had done this time.

Yuan Bao giggled and said, "Uncle, Ruan, haven’t you noticed? Every time Lai comes over, Shouqian gets excited?"
