Chapter 541 Choosing an auspicious day to hold the wedding
Song Lanyin looked at Wen Jingxi with pleading eyes.
Wen Jingxi, holding Xiao Songyi, understood Song Lanyin's gaze, but smiled smugly, "Ayin, just bring it up. Our parents are wealthy, and you're their only daughter-in-law. They can spoil you!"
Song Lanyin: "..."
Mother Wen smiled and said, "Jingxi is right. You are our only daughter-in-law, and we can spoil you. Feel free to bring it up. Consider it an opportunity for us as your parents-in-law to show our support!"
"Auntie, this..."
"Hmm?" Wen's mother glared at her, "Didn't we agree a year ago that you would call me Mom?"
Upon hearing this, Song Lanyin quickly smiled and called out, "Mom."
"Good child!" Mother Wen patted Song Lanyin's hand. "Come on, don't just stand there, let's sit down and have a good talk."
Song Lanyin nodded, then turned her gaze to Wen's father and called out with a smile, "Dad."
Father Wen nodded with satisfaction, "Xiao Yin has suffered a lot outside this year."
"That's not true," Song Lanyin said. "I've had a great year. It's Jingxi and you who have put in a lot of effort taking care of Xiaosongyi since she was sent back. You're the ones who have worked so hard."
“Xiao Songyi is very well-behaved. Besides, Jingxi takes care of her most of the time. We just come to visit when we have time,” said Father Wen.
The group exchanged pleasantries, creating a warm and harmonious atmosphere in the living room.
Mr. and Mrs. Wen wanted to hold the wedding on a suitable date before the end of the year.
Wen Jingxi was naturally eager for this.
Song Lanyin naturally had no objections.
Women all yearn for weddings, and she was no exception.
However, she felt that she still needed to consult with Grandpa Wen about the wedding arrangements.
After all, he was the head of the Wen family, and Song Lanyin was well aware of Old Master Wen's affection for Wen Jingxi.
"Grandpa Wen doesn't know I'm back, does he?"
When Song Lanyin asked this question, Wen's parents were taken aback. After a moment, they turned to look at Wen Jingxi.
Wen's mother asked him, "Haven't you told your grandfather yet?"
Wen Jingxi gently patted her son's bottom with her big hand, looking proud. "No! Didn't he say he would stay with me for two years? Only a year has passed. The extra year was a gain for me and Ayin, it has nothing to do with him!"
Mother Wen: "..."
Song Lanyin: "..."
Father Wen coughed lightly, looked at Wen Jingxi, and frowned as he scolded, "How can you be so insensible? You know your grandfather is worried about Xiaoyin's safety day and night. Now that Xiaoyin has returned ahead of schedule, this is a good thing, and you still don't let him know!"
"Anyway, I won't say it on my own initiative!" Wen Jingxi stood up with his son in his arms. "My son is asleep. Tang Wei, take him inside."
"Okay." Tang Wei walked over, took the sleeping Xiao Songyi from Wen Jingxi's arms, and turned to walk towards the guest room.
Only the four of them remained in the living room.
Song Lanyin tried to persuade Wen Jingxi, "If you don't want to call Grandpa Wen, how about we take our son back to see him tomorrow?"
"No." Wen Jingxi snorted coldly, "I'm not going back, and you can't go back either!"
Song Lanyin: "..."
“Wen Jingxi, that’s your grandfather!” Wen’s mother glared at him. “I know you’re upset, but your grandfather hasn’t been having a good year either. You’re the younger generation, so you should humble yourself. He’s old and just wanted you to settle down and start a family. Now that Xiaoyin is back, the three of you are reunited. What a wonderful thing this is! Your grandfather should share this with you.”
Upon hearing this, Wen Jingxi was somewhat moved.
“Your mother is right. Think about how much your grandfather has loved you since you were little. You can’t blame him for this. Besides, your grandfather has realized that his behavior back then was inappropriate. He has stayed in Beicheng for the past year simply to try his best to make it up to you.”
“Wen Jingxi, your parents are right.” Song Lanyin also advised him, “Before I left, I also talked to Grandpa Wen. My departure was entirely based on my own considerations. If I didn’t want to leave, no matter how much Grandpa Wen tried to persuade me, I wouldn’t listen.”
Wen Jingxi looked at Song Lanyin and frowned, saying, "You still dare to say that! Back then, you and Grandpa made a decision behind my back, leaving me all alone. If it weren't for the fact that you gave birth to a son for me, I wouldn't have forgiven you so quickly!"
Song Lanyin knew he was just saying that out of anger, and she also knew that he must have gone through a very painful period when he left without saying goodbye.
So she understood his anger and resentment.
Song Lanyin sighed softly, "It was my fault, but if you forgive me, you must also forgive Grandpa Wen. You can't discriminate."
"Alright! Since you've shown some remorse, I'll call Grandpa."
Wen Jingxi picked up his phone and opened his contacts.
Upon learning of Song Lanyin's return, Grandpa Wen immediately urged Wen Jingxi to bring her back for him to see.
Wen Jingxi, being rather cheeky, said, "Grandpa, I just wanted to call and let you know we're safe. We haven't made any plans to go back yet!"
Upon hearing this, Old Master Wen was taken aback. "Why didn't you come back?"
"No, Ah Yin and I haven't seen each other for over a year. We need to have some alone time first."
Grandpa Wen: "...How is Ayin?"
"He's fine, just thinner. He must have suffered a lot this past year."
Grandpa Wen: "...We need to buy her some tonics to help her recover and improve her health."
"Yes, Grandpa, don't worry. Now that Ayin is back, I will definitely take good care of her. You don't need to worry about her."
Old Master Wen: "..."
"If Grandpa's all right, I'll hang up now." Wen Jingxi said and hung up the phone.
Anyone could see from his expression that he was deliberately ignoring the old man.
Although Wen's mother and father felt that Wen Jingxi's behavior was not good, they also knew that he was standing up for Song Lanyin, so they didn't know what to say.
Song Lanyin, on the other hand, knew that Wen Jingxi meant well, but she didn't want him to do this.
However, Song Lanyin didn't say anything when Wen's parents were both present.
After Wen's parents left, Song Lanyin pulled Wen Jingxi into the bedroom, gave him a stern lecture, and then, hands on her hips, commanded, "Tomorrow, come with me and take our son back to visit the old man, understand?"
Wen Jingxi rubbed his ears, which had been pinched red, and said reluctantly, "Okay."
Seeing him like this, Song Lanyin felt a pang of pity.
With a sigh, she reached out and touched his face. "Wen Jingxi, I hope that when we're together, things will get better and better, not that one of us has to endure and compromise to make it happen. Grandpa Wen is getting old. As the head of the Wen family, he has his considerations. You can't judge his actions as wrong just because of his considerations. You have to understand that if that phone call really was from my enemy, the worst-case scenario is that even if I leave, I can't prevent my enemy from being implicated because of me. If that's the case, then even without Grandpa Wen, it would be difficult for us to be together."
Wen Jingxi's heart trembled. He reached out and grasped her hand, staring at her expectantly. "Sister Ayin, don't say such things. It won't happen. You're so kind, and our Wen family has done good deeds. Heaven won't let us encounter such a thing."
"So, I met you, and we were blessed by the glorious protection of your Wen family ancestors. That's why I had a smooth pregnancy and delivery this year, and even the plans of the Yu family went very smoothly."
Song Lanyin leaned down, her forehead touching Wen Jingxi's. "Look, it went so smoothly and perfectly, what more could we ask for?"
Wen Jingxi smiled and said, "Yes, it's wonderful, but I'm not satisfied yet."
Song Lanyin frowned and glared at him, "Why are you so stubborn? All my words have been wasted..."
"I won't be satisfied until you give me a daughter!"
Song Lanyin: "..."
