Ye Chenming nodded knowingly. It was normal for Nan Nan not to be able to dance. In the remote Mushroom Village, who would learn something that couldn't be eaten or used? Even if she could dance, she wouldn't dare to, or she would suffer the consequences.
"Nan Nan, I'll teach you when I have time," Ye Chenming said in a low voice.
Yan Xiaonan nodded. This wasn't a matter of principle, so she let him learn. However, she believed that in thirty years, Ye Chenming would definitely not want to dance anymore.
In the following days, Yan Xiaonan and Ye Chenming went to Nanshi and the old city of her previous life. After some investigation, they were a little disappointed because there was no intention to demolish those two places.
Yan Xiaonan took 100,000 yuan from the bank and gave it to Ye Huiguo, but Ye Huiguo refused to accept it. He was also the second young master of the Ye family, and Ye Ren would not treat him unfairly.
Let alone a mere 100,000 yuan, even if there were multiple zeros, he could take it out without batting an eye. Otherwise, how would so many old, dilapidated houses have been transferred to their names?
Ye Chenming nodded and told Yan Xiaonan to put away the cash. He knew the Ye family's character; if his uncle really had no money, he would definitely have accepted it. But the fact that he refused to accept it proved that his grandfather had already given his uncle the corresponding amount of money.
Yan Xiaonan put the money into her suitcase and started packing. The matter was now settled, and she already missed her two little ones very much. If it weren't for the difficulty in booking plane tickets, she would have flown back right now.
She picked up the phone, eager to hear her little one's voice. Sure enough, after only a few rings, Xiao Yushu's soft, childlike voice came through the receiver: "Mommy, when are you and Daddy coming back?"
Hearing her little sister's voice, Yan Xiaonan's heart melted, and tears almost welled up in her eyes: "Mommy and Daddy will be back tomorrow. You and your brother should eat your food and drink your milk, okay?"
"Oh, Mom's coming back tomorrow, brother, did you hear that? Mom and Dad are coming back tomorrow." With a click, the phone hung up, and Ye Chenming, who was waiting to the side, was dumbfounded. He hadn't even spoken to the little bean boy yet.
Yan Xiaonan's longing for her baby was also dispelled by this amazing operation. Looking at Ye Chenming's disappointed face, she smiled and said, "Why don't you try again?"
Ye Chenming shook his head. The babies must be very happy now. If he hits them again, they'll think it's strange. He'll wait until he gets back tomorrow to spank their little bottoms.
"Nan Nan, let's go out and buy some delicious food, drinks, and fun things to take back to them," Ye Chenming suggested.
Yan Xiaonan nodded repeatedly, and the two of them drove off in their small, exquisite Xiali. Their first stop was the First Food Store.
The traditional pastry counter was filled with waterless cakes, butterfly cookies, and other treats that Shanghainese love.
The second-floor specialty food area offers a variety of local specialties, such as beef jerky, pork jerky, and roasted nuts and seeds from both the north and south of China.
Ye Chenming went on a shopping spree, and before long, his hands were full. He had to go back to his car, put the things away, and then rush into the grocery store.
People around them looked at the two of them curiously. Judging from their accents, they should be from Shanghai, but they were buying things like people from out of town.
Yan Xiaonan bought everything she liked to eat, as well as everything her grandmother and parents liked to eat, and everything Ye Ren and the others liked to eat.
Then I drove to the No. 1 Department Store, went straight to the children's counter, and bought whatever looked good – toys, children's magazines, clothes.
Don't even mention that Yan Xiaonan has everything in his space. He wouldn't dare take out those things, like an Apple tablet. Even if you took them out, they wouldn't be of any use.
The two, laden with their purchases, entered the small villa, laughing and joking. Ye Chenming even asked Ye Huixian to help carry the things.
Ye Huiguo ran out with a grim face: "Chen Ming, you're in trouble."
Ye Chenming gave his uncle a strange look: "Uncle, can you not leave things unsaid? What trouble am I in?"
Ye Huiguo glanced at Yan Xiaonan, unsure of what to say. Ye Chenming also glanced at Yan Xiaonan and said, "Uncle, Nannan and I are one. Just say what you have to say."
"Two women came to see you, saying you are their betrothed since childhood, and they came to discuss the marriage today," Ye Huiguo said hesitantly.
Ye Chenming and Yan Xiaonan were both shocked. An arranged marriage since childhood? What a joke!
The two walked in quickly and saw two women, one in her fifties and the other in her thirties.
The two men's eyes lit up when they saw Ye Chenming enter, and they rushed over, saying, "Chenming, my son-in-law, you're finally back!"
Ye Chenming took a few steps back and bumped into Yan Xiaonan behind him. He pulled Yan Xiaonan to his side and said, "I have a wife, she is my wife. Who exactly are you?"
The old woman's eyes reddened: "Ye Chenming, you've gone too far! My daughter has waited for you for over thirty years, and this is how you repay us?"
"Wait, who are you? Who made you wait?" Ye Chenming couldn't hold back any longer.
"We are Xiao Yuan's good friends. We were betrothed when we were both pregnant," the old woman said matter-of-factly.
When Xiao Yuan was mentioned, Ye Chenming and the others' expressions turned sour. Ye Huiguo and Ye Huixian didn't want to talk, after all, she was Ye Chenming's mother.
Ye Chenming sneered, "I don't know the Xiao Yuan you're talking about. Go find whoever was betrothed to you since childhood. Besides, she's already over thirty. Has your daughter never been married before?"
Yan Xiaonan's consciousness had been fixed on the mother and daughter. As soon as Ye Chenming said those words, both of their expressions changed.
The younger woman, in particular, was deathly pale.
Suddenly, the woman pounced on Ye Chenming, trying to hug him. Once the man and woman had physical intimacy, they would have an excuse.
But who is Ye Chenming? He trained in the army for so many years, and all that sweat wasn't for nothing.
She leaped backward, pulling Yan Xiaonan along with her. The woman used too much force and couldn't stop, falling to the ground with a thud.
"You, you..."
Ye Chenming's face darkened further: "Shameless! Did you get dumped by a man outside and now you're looking for a replacement? Let me tell you, I don't know any Little Yuan or Big Yuan. Get out of here."
Then he pulled Yan Xiaonan upstairs, muttering as he went, "Where did this old woman come from? She pounces on every man she sees. It's terrifying. Honey, you have to comfort me."
Yan Xiaonan really wanted to give him a good whack; he was so sarcastic. But she liked it.
Even after the words were spoken so harshly, those two people still refused to leave and insisted that the Ye family give them an explanation.
Ye Huiguo's face also turned cold. He hadn't lost his temper earlier because he didn't know what Ye Chenming was thinking.
He now understood Ye Chenming's intentions, and besides, Yan Xiaonan was the daughter-in-law personally chosen by his elder brother; how could he allow anyone else to interfere?
