On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, they went to Chen Yanwen's appointment. The three of them ate the hot pot prepared by Chen's chef. The taste was indeed very similar. Wang Yu didn't notice much difference anyway.
After the three of them finished eating, they sat on the couch and drank tea. Chen Yanwen said with a look of nostalgia, "This hot pot is really delicious in winter. What do you think if I open another hot pot restaurant?"
Wang Yu thought it was indeed possible. After all, it was a new food here. As long as he had the formula of the base material in his hands, it would not be easy for others to imitate.
"Of course you can, but you need to study. I'll have to let my uncle handle the business."
Chen Yanwen thought about it and realized that it was indeed the case. "That's right, let my dad worry about it."
He also asked when Song Boyan would make up his mind. Song Boyan had been preparing for the marriage during this period, which made him feel a little excited. He said that the engagement would be made on the tenth day of the first lunar month and the engagement items had been prepared. Then he talked about Chen Yanwen, which made Wang Yu feel like he was watching a TV series from last year to this year.
This story started when Chen Yanwen and his family went to his grandmother's house to pay New Year's greetings on the first day of the new year. When they arrived, they saw a strange girl next to his grandmother. Later they found out that it was the cousin that his grandmother always mentioned. In the words of the old lady, she called her over to keep her company because she felt lonely around her.
After hearing this, Chen's mother curled her lips. She knew what they were planning. It was fine for them to come on weekdays. During the New Year, all the younger generations of the family were here. It wouldn't be lonely at all. Why would there be a need for someone from another family to come?
In the past, she always compared the eldest lady with her son. Now her son passed the imperial examination and went to the provincial school. It was said that the eldest lady did not pass the provincial examination this year. Why didn't she talk about it? Then she thought about it again and decided not to care about it since she was happy today. Since the old lady said so, she pretended not to know. What she didn't expect was that the girl was so bold.
At dinner in the evening, several brothers from the same family sat together and drank until it was a little late. The girl expressed her feelings to his son under the pretext of sending him sobering soup, and said some shameless words, saying that there were servants in the family, so why did an unmarried girl need to send him the soup.
"At that time, I thought that fortunately the door was closed tightly, so I could only pretend to be asleep and didn't hear it." Chen Yanwen said fearfully, otherwise he would have no way to explain if someone saw him in the middle of the night.
"The next day I told my mother about it. She smashed a cup and said it was too much! Then she told the clan about it."
Uh...if this girl lived in modern times, it would just be a manifestation of brave pursuit of love, but in this era, it is too unrestrained. A girl from a normal family would not express her love to another man at his door in the middle of the night.
"Alas, our family has completely fallen out with grandma."
Wang Yu didn't know how to comfort him. His mother was right to do so. She couldn't tolerate anyone trying to interfere with her son's marriage again and again, not to mention the grudges from the previous generation.
"Because of what you said, I'm a little afraid of getting married."
Wang Yu could only give him another piece of meat and comfort him, "Don't be discouraged. This matter depends on fate. Once fate comes, you can't hide from it even if you want to."
Chen Yanwen picked up the meat and ate it in frustration. The meat was still delicious.
There was nothing to do in the village, so Wang Yu and his friends went to the provincial capital in advance. The Lantern Festival in the provincial capital was very lively, so he planned to take them all to see it.
On the twelfth day, the family prepared to set off. Wang's father also went this time. The family bought some more land last year, and now they have more than 40 acres of land. Wang Yu asked his father to hire a farmhand to manage it, and he would go back to look after it during the busy farming season.
When they arrived at the provincial capital, Wang Yu saw that Cheng Chen looked a little tired, so he asked him to rest first. Cheng Chen also felt extremely sleepy, so he went to sleep without refusing. He slept until dinner and did not get up. When Wang Yu went to call him, he was still half asleep.
"Achen, get up and eat something before going back to sleep?" Not knowing if he was sick, Wang Yu touched his forehead anxiously, but fortunately he didn't have a fever.
"I still want to sleep." Cheng Chen muttered with his eyes closed. He still felt very sleepy.
"Achen, I made chicken soup tonight. Get up and drink some before going to bed, otherwise you will be hungry in the middle of the night with an empty stomach." Then he got up and went out to get the soup.
The Queen Mother also asked Cheng Chen with concern, and was relieved to know that he was not sick. However, Cheng Chen was in good health on weekdays, and he shouldn't be so sleepy after riding in the carriage today. She was a little confused but didn't say anything else.
Wang Yu brought in chicken soup, helped Cheng Chen up and coaxed him to finish the soup. After drinking the chicken soup, Cheng Chen became a little more awake, but felt embarrassed. How could she let her husband bring the meal to the bedroom to eat? She didn't know why she was so sleepy today.
"Still sleeping?"
Hearing her husband's concerned voice, Cheng Chen shook her head. She would not be able to sleep at night if she continued sleeping.
"Are you still eating?"
Cheng Chen blushed and shook his head. Wang Yu found her husband's expression adorable. She pinched his face and said with a smile, "Excuse me?"
Cheng Chen glared at him. How could his husband laugh at him like that? He didn't want to do that. Wang Yu touched his hair and said, "There's nothing to be embarrassed about. As a husband, serving food to your husband is nothing. I'm happy to do more for you."
Cheng Chen lowered his eyes. His husband always said such words to make her feel warm in her heart, but she didn't like to hear them. She really lived in a honeypot in the past few years since she married her husband. Her husband was so good to her that she didn't know how to treat her husband better. She buried her head in Wang Yu's chest and rubbed it.
Wang Yu was surprised. Cheng Chen was acting coquettishly with him. Wang Yu hugged him in his arms. He was really like a little rabbit, soft and cute even when he was acting coquettishly. Wang Yu was so soft-hearted that he kissed him on the head.
After a good sleep, Cheng Chen felt better. However, when a fish dish was cooked for lunch the next day, Cheng Chen felt nauseous when he smelled the fish and couldn't eat. Usually, Cheng Chen liked to eat fish very much.
Wang Yu was extremely worried seeing him like this, fearing that he had stomach problems. After all, Wang's mother was an experienced person, and considering yesterday's situation, it might be as she thought, so she suppressed her joy and asked someone to call a doctor.
After the doctor came over and took the patient's pulse, he confirmed that she was pregnant. After hearing this, Wang's mother could no longer suppress her joy and laughed out loud. Wang Yu and Cheng Chen were still a little stunned, but then they understood what the doctor said. They looked at each other and were very happy.
Wang Yu stepped forward, shook Cheng Chen's hand, and said, "Achen, you're going to have to work harder."
Cheng Chen curved his eyebrows and shook his head. What was so hard about it? Being able to do this for her husband... He was so happy that he looked at his belly and smiled more gently.
I didn’t expect that the wish I made last year would come true this year.
The Queen Mother was extremely happy. After sending the doctor away, she arranged for the kitchen to prepare Cheng Chen's favorite dishes and snacks. She also asked Wang Yu to go to the street to buy some sour plums to whet Cheng Chen's appetite.
Wang Yu thought that Cheng Chen was not feeling well, so he went to the clinic to ask the doctor what he could eat to relieve the symptoms. The doctor told him one by one, and Wang Yu went to the store to buy everything for Cheng Chen, including preserved plums, candied plums and many other things.
Cheng Chen looked at the table full of snacks and said with a smile, "Didn't my husband buy too much?"
Wang Yu took his hand and said, "Not much, try each one. If you like the ones, buy more later."
Cheng Chen picked up the plum cake and took a bite. The sweet and sour taste spread in his mouth. His appetite was indeed much better. He nodded and said good.
