Small? Who's small? Ruan Banxia?
Can she say that she is still a child?
Cheng Qingyan suddenly leaned in and gave Ye Lingyu a cheeky kiss, asking, "Wife, I'm still a child too, can you be a little more lenient with me?"
Ye Lingyu, her face full of tenderness, stroked Cheng Qingyan's waist: "Ayan, how would you like me to give in to you? Why don't you tell me in detail?"
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and Cheng Qingyan's waist tightened, causing her to swallow back the words she was about to say.
Just kidding, if you tell Ye Lingyu to stop always counterattacking at night, she'll probably get strangled, right?
After some hesitation, Cheng Qingyan finally changed his tune: "No, it's nothing! My wife has already been very accommodating to me; it's my fault."
Ye Lingyu chuckled and gently rubbed Cheng Qingyan's waist, her eyes brimming with undisguised joy: "What's wrong with A-Yan? A-Yan is perfectly fine now~"
Not just capable, really capable!
He was lying down comfortably.
Cheng Qingyan's face turned red, and he rested his head on Ye Lingyu's shoulder, pleading little by little, "Wife~ please stop, I still have my pride~"
Okay~ I'm not saying anything more~
This person never blushed when they were teasing him in various ways, but now they seem embarrassed.
Jiangjiang ran in from outside, picking lotus leaves and flowers: "Dad, Mom, look! Jiangjiang picked some lotus flowers!"
"Hey, are Daddy and Mommy playing cuddling? Jiangjiang wants some too~"
Hongyu chased after Jiangjiang as fast as she could, but she couldn't catch up.
Hearing what Jiang Jiang said, she gasped inwardly, vowing to stop Jiang Jiang next time!
What if, just what if, she barged in when she shouldn't have!
"My lord, my wife, I will definitely keep a closer eye on Jiangjiang next time!"
When Jiang Jiang came in, Ye Lingyu stood up from Cheng Qingyan's lap and gave Cheng Qingyan a disapproving look.
"It's alright, you can't keep an eye on this child."
Cheng Qingyan squatted down, took the lotus flower from Jiang Jiang's hand, and handed it to Ye Lingyu.
"My lady, I'm giving you a lotus flower."
Jiang Jiang truly witnessed what it meant to use someone else's flowers to present to Buddha; her father was really going too far!
"Take Jiangjiang with you tomorrow. Hongyu and I will go to town early in the morning to buy some things. We need to take good care of them."
Cheng Qingyan was somewhat unhappy that they had to split up and act separately from Ye Lingyu.
She glanced at Jiang Jiang, then at Hong Yu, and tentatively asked, "How about letting Jiang Jiang go with Hong Yu? I'll go to town with you?"
Cheng Qingyan successfully earned a glare from Ye Lingyu and stood obediently at her feet.
She was a little worried, but otherwise she was fine.
Jiangjiang asked, puzzled, "What are you talking about, Father and Mother? Where do you want Jiangjiang to go?"
Cheng Qingyan's eyes lit up, and she said to Jiang Jiang, "Jiang Jiang, how about we go to town with Mom and Aunt Hongyu to buy some delicious snacks tomorrow?"
"Mmm! Of course! Jiangjiang wants an iced drink!"
Meeting Ye Lingyu's gaze, Cheng Qingyan pleaded, "Wife~ please let Jiangjiang stay with you~"
"If none of this works, then you'll have to go to Doctor Ruan's house, and I'll go to town."
It just so happens that the Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, and Ye Lingyu wants to buy some things to make zongzi (sticky rice dumplings). Cheng Qingyan can't cook and doesn't know what vegetables and ingredients to buy, so she can't let her go.
Moreover, based on her previous shopping experiences, Cheng Qingyan wouldn't return until she had spent all the money she was carrying.
Although we can let her spend money a little more freely now, we should still control it. We don't know when the chicken coop and fishpond will start generating income.
After a long while, Ye Lingyu sighed and said, "Then don't linger on the way there by yourself. Go early and come back early."
"Okay~"
And so the matter was decided; the new house was completed, and we could move in anytime.
Jiang Jiang was excited to see Meng Chuying the next day, so she happily went to play with Fu Gui.
The next morning, just as dawn was breaking, Ye Lingyu set off for town with Hongyu and Jiangjiang.
Cheng Qingyan inspected the fields, then checked the fishpond and chicken coop before returning to drive to Shuanghe Village.
The oxcart arrived at Shuanghe Village around nine o'clock.
Shen Ziyu was drinking tea in the courtyard, and Meng Chuying was drying herbs. Ruan Banxia was nowhere to be seen.
Wangcai, with its sharp ears, came running over from afar, barking and circling around Cheng Qingyan.
Happy, she stood up on her two legs and snuggled up to Cheng Qingyan.
Shen Ziyu put down her teacup, and Meng Chuying also smiled, put down the herbs in her hand, and ran over.
"Brother Cheng, why did you come alone?"
Cheng Qingyan tied up the oxcart and asked with a smile, "What? Isn't it enough that I came to pick you up? Does your sister Ye have to come along too?"
"Brother Cheng, you know perfectly well that's not what I meant!"
"Okay, okay, sweetie, I was just teasing you~"
Shen Ziyu smiled and asked, "Brother Cheng, how have you been lately?"
"I'm alright, Brother Shen. How about you?"
Cheng Qingyan really wanted to gossip a bit, but unfortunately she didn't see Ruan Banxia. She was too embarrassed to ask Shen Ziyu directly, for fear of getting beaten up.
Shen Ziyu smiled and invited the person into the house: "I'm fine too, why didn't Jiangjiang come with you?"
“She and my wife went to town together, so we should buy some good wine and food to entertain you and Doctor Ruan.”
"Who's going to greet me?" Ruan Banxia asked loudly as she came out of the house.
Upon seeing Cheng Qingyan, he smiled and said, "It's you~ Well, I'm quite picky, have you prepared the wine and food yet?"
Cheng Qingyan and Shen Ziyu exchanged a glance at each other across the table. Cheng Qingyan asked Shen Ziyu, "Perhaps Ruan Banxia's ears can only hear what she wants to hear?"
As if thinking of something, Shen Ziyu took a sip of tea, didn't look at Cheng Qingyan, and then replied indifferently, "Perhaps."
Ruan Banxia then sat down opposite Cheng Qingyan, looked around, and not seeing anyone else, hurriedly asked, "Where's Jiangjiang? I miss her so much! Why didn't she come with you?"
"Jiangjiang went to buy you some good wine and food, she might even get back before us~"
Blinking, Ruan Banxia looked at Shen Ziyu, but asked Cheng Qingyan, "Did you come all this way just to pick us up?"
Cheng Qingyan replied matter-of-factly, "Yeah, coming to pick you up in person, doesn't that show extra sincerity?"
Just now, when I was looking around for someone, I saw the oxcart parked at the door.
Ruan Banxia raised her chin, pointed at the oxcart, and asked, "Is this oxcart your sincerity? Isn't that a bit lacking? It'll all dissipate as the oxcart moves."
Cheng Qingyan retorted, "Ah~ Doctor Ruan, you don't know, this is my overflowing sincerity."
"Think about it, how small is that carriage? How could it possibly contain the gifts I've brought to invite you?"
"Without the constraints of its frame, this oxcart can carry anything under the vast sky and earth."
"The world is vast, and all of it is within the sight of Physician Ruan; only in this way can one be worthy of Physician Ruan's status."
