Chapter 11 The Wedding Room
Zhou Mingshi was not influenced by his father; he had long since gotten used to it.
After finishing the last file, he got up and went downstairs.
Downstairs, the patient had finished treatment and gone home, and melodious music drifted through the antique-style clinic.
Ye Lingzhi was helping with cooking in the kitchen, Lin Yi'an was tidying up the treatment room, and Grandma, being old, had gone out for a stroll after a busy morning.
Lin Yi'an finished tidying up the treatment room and was carrying a white sheet to put in the washing machine when she looked up and saw Zhou Mingshi leaning against the door frame watching her. She asked, "Are you done?"
Zhou Mingshi hummed in agreement and then asked, "Is it 'Pipa Language'?"
Lin Yi'an: "Mm."
Zhou Mingshi followed her into the laundry room: "Do you like listening to music?"
Lin Yi'an: "I really like it, do you like it?"
“I like it.” Zhou Mingshi said, then smiled and said, “It seems we have a common interest.”
Lin Yi'an smiled and said, "Yes."
From now on, at least both of us will be able to accept playing music at home.
After Ye Lingzhi finished chopping the vegetables, she came out and saw Yi'an washing clothes. She quickly said, "Sister Yi'an, let me do it."
Lin Yi'an: "It's nothing, you go about your business, it's fine."
Ye Lingzhi: "Then I'll go to the kitchen to cook. I'll take care of disinfecting the sheets later."
As they were talking, they heard a car outside; the two people who had gone to buy groceries were returning.
When Grandma Lin came back from her stroll, she saw them and asked, "Why are you only coming back now?"
Lin Shuhe said, "There's nothing good to buy in town, so we went to the county seat."
Zhou Mingshi came over to help carry the things, and Lin Shuhe, seeing that he was clean, quickly said, "There's not much stuff, don't get your clothes dirty."
Assistant Chen: "I'll bring it up."
Grandma Lin looked at Zhou Mingshi and said, "Let them go about their business. You take Bao'er to Uncle Maodan's house across the street and tell him that he's going to fish tonight. Please save some for us. His fishpond is big, and the fish he raises don't use any feed, so they taste good."
Zhou Mingshi looked at Lin Yi'an, who asked in confusion, "Can I call him?"
Grandma Lin: "I don't have his phone number. It's cloudy and there's no sun right now. Even though I've been staying at home all day, I need to go out for a walk, see the scenery here, and get to know the people in the village."
Lin Yi'an: "Okay, I'll go right away."
The two walked to the opposite side. Actually, they had their own pond. Lin Shuhe wanted to raise fish, but Lin Yi'an didn't allow it. It was too much trouble. There were many families in the village who raised fish. If they wanted to eat fish, they could just buy some. There was no need to go through all that trouble.
Grandma Lin watched the two walking out side by side, her eyes full of smiles. She would have to call Yi'an's mother that night; she was very satisfied with her grandson-in-law.
After walking a few steps, Zhou Mingshi asked, "What kind of decorating style do you like for our wedding room?"
Lin Yi'an looked at him in confusion: "Didn't you say that after the wedding you would live in the Zhou family's old house to keep your grandparents company?"
After the engagement, he sent someone to ask her how they planned to renovate their room after the wedding, and asked her to give him some decorating suggestions.
Zhou Mingshi: "There are many people in the old house, and it's a bit noisy. After getting married, we live outside, so we can go back to visit our grandparents when we have time to rest."
He paused slightly, then said, "If you want to stay in the old house with your grandparents, that's fine too. We can solve all the other problems."
Zhou Kanghui's phone call in the morning made him change his mind. His marriage to the Lin family was a union between two families, not an act of enmity.
He was very satisfied with Lin Yi'an. The two of them were going to spend their lives together, and they would be the closest people to each other. He felt it was his responsibility to make her married life comfortable.
Lin Yi-an: "I like peace and quiet. No matter where I live, as long as it's peaceful, that's fine."
Zhou Mingshi nodded: "Prepare a house first, decorate it according to your preferences, and live in whatever is convenient after the wedding. Although the time is a bit tight, it doesn't matter. We can live in the old house during the honeymoon period."
He has a place to live outside, which is not suitable as a wedding home. Considering Yi'an's work, we need to choose a place close to her workplace.
Lin Yi'an thought for a moment, and finding nothing wrong with it, said, "You've already considered everything that needs to be considered. I'll follow your arrangements."
Zhou Mingshi turned to look at her. Although her tone was calm, it was clear that she hadn't forced herself to accept his arrangement, but genuinely felt that it suited her wishes.
He smiled and said, "This afternoon, I'll have Assistant Chen send you the locations and blueprints of several residences. You can choose one or two that you like and start decorating them. After you get married, if you get tired of living in one place, you can move to another place."
Lin Yi'an nodded: "Okay."
As they were talking, a motorcycle pulled up in front of them and stopped. The person on the motorcycle took off his helmet and smiled, saying, "Yi'an's back?"
Lin Yi'an recognized the person and smiled, "Fourth Uncle, I came back the day before yesterday."
Uncle Hu looked at Zhou Ming and asked, "And who is this?"
Lin Yi'an: "Fourth Uncle, this is my fiancé, Zhou Mingshi."
“Ming Shi, this is Uncle Hu Si.”
Uncle Hu looked Zhou Ming up and down and praised, "Good looks, a good match for Yi'an."
Lin Yi'an smiled at Zhou Mingshi, and Zhou Mingshi looked at the smile in her eyes and greeted Uncle Hu Si: "Hello, Uncle Hu Si!"
"Alright, alright, and hello to you too." Uncle Hu got off his motorcycle with a smile: "I set a fishing net in the river, and I caught two blackfish today. It's rare for you to come back, so take them home and eat them."
Lin Yi'an leaned closer to look at the fish in the bucket: "These two fish look quite lively..."
Before she could finish speaking, Uncle Hu lifted the bucket off the ground, placed it in front of her, and got on his motorcycle: "I'm leaving now. You can take the fish back and eat it."
He left in a hurry, and Lin Yi'an picked up the bucket and said, "These two fish can last for two days, so we don't need to go to Uncle Maodan's house."
Zhou Mingshi: "I'll bring it up."
So the two of them walked back together.
Zhou Mingshi said, "The villagers are very hospitable."
Lin Yi'an told him, "Uncle Hu makes a living by fishing. Wild blackfish are not easy to catch and are more expensive than grass carp and crucian carp. If we give him these two fish, he will earn much less today. He won't accept money from us. He likes to drink. When you go out for a walk in the evening, bring him a bottle of wine."
The wine in the house was all given to her by her parents, older brother, older sister, and Zhou Mingshi. It was all good wine, and Uncle Hu was only happy to receive it.
Zhou Mingshi: "Hmm."
Lin Yi-an: "My dad's braised fish slices are pretty good. I'll have him make them for us tonight."
It's too late by noon.
Zhou Mingshi smiled and said, "Okay."
Back home, Assistant Chen saw them and asked, "Mr. Zhou, did you take your medicine today?"
Zhou Mingshi ignored him, which amused Lin Yi'an: "I drank it. Don't worry, I won't neglect your CEO Zhou."
Assistant Chen exclaimed in surprise, "Ms. Lin, you can actually joke around?"
Lin Yi'an: "......"
Zhou Mingshi looked at him: "Are you alright?"
Assistant Chen: "It's fine right now."
Zhou Mingshi: "Whenever I have free time, I go to the kitchen to help out."
Assistant Chen: "...I'll go right away."
Watching his retreating figure, Zhou Mingshi said, "He talks too much."
Lin Yi'an said something nice about him: "He cares about your health."
Zhou Mingshi smiled and nodded, "Apart from being talkative, he's fine."
