Chapter 294 Don't bother him
The three of them temporarily left the affairs of West City behind and went back first.
Coincidentally, it was the weekend again, and Bai Shichen said that he would invite everyone to his house for a party. The swimming pool had been cleaned, and food and desserts were also prepared. He invited everyone to join in the fun.
An Yan didn't like overly crowded places. She was making medicine in Wancaotang. This was medicine for the little girl, so she reduced the dosage a little to prevent her from being unable to withstand the strong effect of the medicine.
I originally thought that Bai Shu would come to get it himself, but who would have thought it was Rong Qian who came. She looked as hard-working as if she had just finished a day of farm work. As soon as she entered the room, she lay down on the sofa, poured herself a glass of water, and said to An Yan, "Forgive my rudeness."
"What's wrong with you? You look like you just came back from a marathon." An Yan looked over at her with a smile and said, "There's chilled fruit in the refrigerator. Go take it out and eat it. There's also ice water."
Where An Yan is, there is nothing missing. There is an old man taking care of the West City, while here it is Li Rongsen who is taking care of it. He has already instructed Nissen to arrange everything, so whatever is needed is available.
Rong Qian stood up and went to grab a piece of ice cream. She said, "I've been so exhausted these past two days. This is the first time I've experienced how tiring it is to get along with my mother-in-law. It's so tiring."
"What? You haven't even gotten married yet, but you've already started serving his parents?" An Yan seemed a little unconvinced. She found that Rong Qian, the rich girl, was really kind and easy-going. Others might not be so proactive.
Rong Qian took a bite of ice cream and said, "His mother came over, but he didn't have time to pick her up because he had a surgery scheduled at the last minute. I figured we'd see each other sooner or later, so going to pick her up would make a good impression on her. But it turns out she's not very easy to get along with."
"It's rare for us to meet, so Bai Shu will have to do it himself from now on." An Yan replied.
"She listed a lot of rules for me, saying that women shouldn't show up in public, shouldn't work, should stay at home, should have a baby in the first year, and if that's not possible, then in the second year, and if she still can't have a baby in the third year, then it's not good either, and the family line must not be cut off, and so on." Rong Qian was not very happy. She was not a reproductive machine, so what kind of words did she say?
An Yan remembered what Li Rongsen had said, that Bai Shu's family wasn't very open-minded. It seemed to be true, so she asked Rong Qian, "So what are you going to do?"
"I'm not happy about it anyway, but I didn't argue with her in person. It's not a good idea anyway." Rong Qian didn't want to lose face.
"You need to discuss this matter with your brother. Don't act on your own." An Yan reminded her.
"Yes, I understand." Rong Qian nodded and continued, "I don't dare to act on my own. There are a lot of people watching me at home, and this marriage also requires Grandpa's approval."
"That's right, don't be so willful." An Yan nodded and said, "You, please don't do anything that would make you feel wronged for love. Humble self-sacrifice won't last long. We need to respect each other."
"I understand. I suffered a loss once, so of course I won't forget it." Rong Qian is not as love-minded as before.
An Yan was relieved. She put the medicine into the bottle and handed it to Rong Qian, saying, "Here, give it to Bai Shu. The blue one is for external application, once a day is enough. The red one is for internal use, twice a day, with an interval of eight hours between them."
Rong Qian carefully put it into her bag and said, "Okay, I understand."
"Okay, I should go to Bai Shichen's place. It's almost three o'clock." An Yan said as she cleared the table. Li Rongsen walked in from outside. Seeing Rong Qian was also there, he said, "I heard that someone from Bai Shu's family is here. Did you go to help?"
An Yan looked towards Rong Qian, and Rong Qian couldn't lie anymore. She said, "I went there for a while and helped out a bit, but I didn't do anything special."
"Please invite Bai Shu and his mother to visit Grandpa next weekend. Just let me know." Li Rongsen said as he walked towards An Yan and said to her, "Grandpa said he missed you. Let's go together next weekend."
An Yan nodded: "Okay, it's time to go see him."
Rong Qian was a little nervous and asked, "Why did you suddenly say you wanted to meet me? I wasn't prepared at all."
"Aren't you going to marry Bai Shu? Didn't you go to look at wedding dresses the day before yesterday?" Li Rongsen asked her.
This made Rong Qian very embarrassed, and she quickly said, "Hey, why are you like this? Did you send someone to follow me?"
"Bai Shu told me. He's very conscious now and has reported all your whereabouts to me."
"Why?" Rong Qian seemed a little unconvinced.
"Because he wants to marry you, he has to please me." Li Rongsen said bluntly.
Rong Qian sighed, but was helpless.
An Yan smiled and said, "Let's go. It will be late if we go out soon."
Li Rongsen and An Yan went to Bai Shichen's house, while Rong Qian went to the hospital to find Bai Shu. She wanted to teach him a lesson for becoming her brother's lackey.
Li Rongsen was driving. He asked An Yan, "Did Rong Qian say anything to you?"
"Just say that getting married is not easy."
"It's because my mother-in-law is difficult to serve. She thinks she is superior to others because her son is somewhat capable. Her vanity is at work." Li Rongsen had already guessed it.
"See, your grandfather is afraid that Rong Qian will suffer in the future, so he set up a special trap and invited people to come to his house so early." An Yan said.
"Everyone in the family knows Rong Qian's temper. After what happened last time, it's better to get things done upfront."
An Yan lowered her eyes to look at her phone. It was Bai Shichen who sent a message asking where they were. She told Li Rongsen and said, "Hey, I forgot to bring my swimsuit."
"Or, where can we buy one?"
"Forget it, at worst I won't swim." An Yan didn't go there for swimming, she just wanted to enjoy the party.
Li Rongsen thought it was fine this way. It wasn't just for him to see. There were several other men present. He wasn't that generous, so he didn't force her.
Bai Shichen's place was already bustling with activity, and Yan Qingqiu went there early as soon as he heard there was a party.
The Wen Jiaer brothers and sisters were there helping out and never left the entire day.
Wen Jiayu had already put on her swimsuit, but she was still wearing a silk scarf. She walked up to An Yan and said to her, "That's the changing room. You can go change into your swimsuit."
"I forgot to bring my swimsuit." An Yan said to her.
"It's just right. I have two sets. Come with me to my brother's room to get them." Wen Jiayu said and motioned An Yan to go with her.
At this time, Wen Jiaer was coming over with some fruit and asked them, "Why are you going to the back? Come over and eat some fruit first." He was afraid that Wen Jiayu would be rude to An Yan, so he called them back.
"An Yan didn't bring a swimsuit, and I happened to have two sets. One of them is new and no one has ever worn it." Wen Jiayu explained to Wen Jiaer with a smile.
When Wen Jiaer heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief, put down his things, and said, "Then I'll go with you."
"What are you going to do? You are a man and we are two women. We will have to try on clothes later. Won't you see everything?" Wen Jiayu said half-jokingly and half-seriously.
Yan Qingqiu immediately responded: "Sit down. Men don't interfere in women's affairs."
Wen Jiaer had no choice but to sit down, but he was still a little worried.
Wen Jiayu took An Yan to the back.
She was in front, followed by An Yan. After entering the room, she handed over a handkerchief, which happened to be the one embroidered with two peach blossoms. She heard her say, "This is a token of love between my brother and the woman he loves most. I hope you won't bother my brother. He's already taken, and he won't be with anyone but that woman. It was a fate from past lives."
An Yan frowned and listened to Wen Jiayu say: "Let me tell you their story."
