"Oh, why are you crying?"
Chen Yanfang looked at her mother, sniffed, and threw herself into her mother's arms aggrievedly: "Mom, am I a little too willful?"
Aunt Fatty's expression fell on her daughter. She reached out and patted her daughter's shoulder soothingly: "Why are you being so willful?"
She looked up at Auntie Pang with grievance, and Auntie Pang's eyes showed a comforting look as she said, "Yanfang, Mom is so happy. You can't find such a good son-in-law even with a lantern."
Chen Yanfang looked up at her mother with tears in her eyes, and her heart was also filled with guilt.
"Okay, go wash your face and stop being so sticky. I hate you."
Chen Yanfang was pushed away by her mother. She looked at her mother in front of her and swallowed the rest of her words.
"Yanfang, Yanfang!"
After Chen Yanfang washed her face, she heard the sound coming from outside and hurried out: "Here they come, here they come."
After opening the door, Chen Yanfang's eyes fell on the man: "Why are you here?"
"Have you cried?"
Chen Yanfang's eyes were red. Wen Xiachen took a step forward, reached out and held Chen Yanfang's hand and said, "Did Auntie Pang say that to you?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Chen Yanfang glared at him angrily: "My mother will never say that to me!"
Wen Xiachen originally thought that Chen Yanfang had been told by her mother, but now he realized that he had misunderstood. He apologized, "I'm sorry, I was just too worried about you."
"It's not your fault, Achen."
Chen Yanfang forced a smile and looked at Wen Xiachen: "I just told my mother some of my true feelings. I also feel guilty towards my parents. They raised me up, but now I chose to leave for my own happiness."
Wen Xiachen understood what Chen Yanfang meant, and he held her hand tightly: "Yanfang, this is not your fault."
"I know this isn't my fault, but my parents are too nice. I just can't get over this hurdle in my heart."
She looked at Wen Xiachen, who soothed her, "Yanfang, if this really happens, I will take responsibility for your guilt towards them. Also, if you miss your parents in Beijing, you can come back from time to time."
Wen Xiachen held her hand tightly: "Transportation is so convenient now, I can accompany you."
Her eyes fell on Wen Xiachen, and Wen Xiachen assured her, "I'm not saying this to coax you, but I mean it from the bottom of my heart."
"As long as you tell me you miss home, I will take leave and come back with you."
"Fool!"
Chen Yanfang could see that Wen Xiachen was serious.
"Yanfang, I'm not stupid. I know I've gotten a great bargain."
"I'm waiting for your father to come back. If he agrees, I'll have my parents come over to discuss our marriage."
He glanced at Chen Yanfang, who became shy, but finally nodded and said, "Okay."
Chen Yanfang was so beautiful when she was shy that Wen Xiachen was stunned at the moment.
He felt his mouth dry and as he approached Chen Yanfang, he saw her at a loss and couldn't help asking, "Yanfang, is this okay?"
How could Chen Yanfang have the nerve to ask if it was okay?
She called his name in a low voice. Wen Xiachen also looked at Chen Yanfang. Seeing that she did not dodge, they got closer and closer. However, a voice broke the ambiguous scene in the next second.
"What are you two doing?"
Aunt Fat came out of the house, but the two of them quickly separated at this moment.
Wen Xiachen's ears flushed red, and his eyes fell on Aunt Fatty. He suppressed his shyness and greeted her, "Aunt Fatty, I'm here to see Yanfang."
Aunt Fat felt amused.
The men from this city are just too concerned about their reputation.
"Doctor Wen, Yanfang still has to help me with some things during this period, so you two should see each other as little as possible."
"mom?"
Chen Yanfang looked at her mother with confusion, but she glared at her and then she shut up obediently.
Wen Xiachen, standing aside, also hurriedly said, "Of course, Aunt Fatty, I'll listen to you!"
Things are almost settled.
Wen Xiachen was not in a hurry for the time being.
He felt satisfied after seeing Chen Yanfang. He said hello to Aunt Pang and walked out of the house.
Auntie Fatty came to her daughter's side, and a helpless look fell on Chen Yanfang and said, "You, little girl, have lost your sense of propriety when I leave you alone for a while."
Chen Yanfang was poked on the head by her mother. She looked at her aggrievedly. Before she could speak, she heard Auntie Pang say, "I'm telling you, you two aren't engaged yet. Don't do things you shouldn't do."
"Although we know what's going on, we can't let them look down on us."
Chen Yanfang's background is not as good as Wen Xiachen's. If the two of them were still in love before marriage, wouldn't it be a laughing stock?
"You've memorized everything Mom told you!"
Chen Yanfang nodded, knowing that her mother was doing this for her own good.
Wen Xiachen, on the other hand, had been grinning foolishly the entire way until he returned to the courtyard. Seeing his mother sitting on a stone bench, he stopped laughing and politely called out, "Mom."
Mother Wen glanced at him and said, "You still remember that you have a mother like me."
Wen Xiachen's scalp tingled, not knowing what he had done to upset her again: "Mom, what you said is so true. I can forget anyone else but I won't forget you!"
He took a few steps forward and patted her shoulder: "If you have any instructions, your son will obey you."
"Alright, alright."
How could Wen's mother not know who her son was causing all this trouble for?
"Since your father has already made the decision, I won't disagree."
Mother Wen reached out and brushed away his hand that was pounding her shoulder. She looked at Wen Xiachen and said, "Sit down now. I have something to explain to you."
Wen Xiachen sat in front of his mother, and his mother said with emotion: "I originally thought that your eldest brother would get married first, but who knew that in the blink of an eye, you would be married sooner than your eldest brother."
"Achen, your daughter-in-law is from the countryside. Since you have chosen her, you must not let her down. You also know the tradition of our family."
Wen Xiachen nodded: "Mom, don't worry, I understand."
"Yanfang is a good girl. I won't bully her, nor will I make her sad."
"Okay, it seems you have really grown up and I don't need to say more."
Mother Wen smiled. Wen Xiachen scratched his hair and looked at his mother and said, "Since I have chosen to start a family, I must take on the responsibilities of a man. Even if you don't say it, I know it in my heart."
