Chapter 398 Come and pick someone up
An Yan turned to Yan Qingqiu and said, "Go fetch two buckets of water. I can use them."
"Let him go. I will stay with you and won't go anywhere." Yan Qingqiu said to Li Rongsen.
Li Rongsen had no objection at all. He immediately went out of the yard to fetch water, and he did feel a little guilty. After all, who would be willing to let his woman suffer?
An Yan naturally felt a little distressed. She frowned at Yan Qingqiu: "You, how can you be so angry? He really doesn't know anything at all. You can't blame him."
"I don't understand why it's always so difficult for you." Yan Qingqiu sighed. It would be more accurate to say that he was angry at fate rather than at Li Rongsen.
"Stop sighing and come with me to cultivate a piece of land. We will plant the Youyue grass by twelve o'clock." An Yan said.
"Where can we plant it here? Maybe near the corner, but there is a tree there. Do we have to uproot it?" Yan Qingqiu asked her while looking over there.
An Yan walked over there and found that there was only a maple tree on this piece of land. The ground underneath was covered with small stones. After cleaning it up, she could plant a large area of Youyue grass. She immediately decided to plant it in this place.
Yan Qingqiu said, "I'll go get a shovel."
"No need, let's just leave it like this." An Yan said as she grabbed the maple tree with one hand and pulled it up by the roots.
Yan Qingqiu was so shocked that he froze. He wasn't surprised by An Yan's strength and ability, but was concerned about another aspect of her. He said to her, "Hey, you can't always be like this. You should wait a while and let Li Rongsen help you pull it out. You are a woman, and this is a man's job."
"You're so nagging! I've already pulled it out." After saying that, An Yan handed the tree to Yan Qingqiu.
Yan Qingqiu put it aside and then said, "Don't move. Just calm down when you feel better."
"Then come here." An Yan looked towards Yan Qingqiu.
Yan Qingqiu rolled up her sleeves and prepared to work. Seeing Xiaochun walk in, she said, "The young master asked me to come over and ask what you guys would like to eat for lunch."
"Whatever." Yan Qingqiu said casually, then quickly changed his tone and said, "Ask An Yan."
"Just eat what you usually eat." An Yan said nonchalantly.
"Well, there's something I want to tell you." Xiaochun took two steps towards Yan Qingqiu, looking shy.
"What's the matter?" Yan Qingqiu was confused.
Xiaochun's voice was as thin as a mosquito bite. She said, "Didn't you say you would take me away? Is that true?"
An Yan was surprised. She looked over at Yan Qingqiu and found him frozen in place, his expression obscure and difficult to read. He then said slowly, "Did I ever say that?"
Xiaochun was stunned at first, and then she became angry. She immediately punched Yan Qingqiu and said, "Liar, liar, you big liar, you deserve to be a light bulb!" Then she ran away angrily.
"What's going on?" An Yan asked.
"It's nothing. I don't know either." Yan Qingqiu pretended to be ignorant and began to squat down to pick up stones.
"You flirted with her, and then you didn't want her anymore." An Yan clicked her tongue, her eyes full of contempt.
Yan Qingqiu was not convinced. He said, "You can't be so heartless. I sold my soul and body just to find out your whereabouts. Otherwise, I would not be that kind of person."
An Yan pretended not to hear and went into the house.
Yan Qingqiu immediately chased after her and said, "An Yan, what's wrong with your attitude? I'm a gentleman with good character, and I'm doing this all for you."
At this time, Li Rongsen came over. He carried two large buckets of water into the yard and put them aside.
"Hey, come here and help me explain. It was that maid who was interested in me. I didn't do anything, but you still blame me for being so romantic." Yan Qingqiu was very unconvinced. He would not allow anyone to question his pure character.
Li Rongsen thought An Yan was angry with Yan Qingqiu, so he hurried into the room to explain to her, saying, "He's completely devoted to you. He's worried like a headless fly every day, afraid that you'll be wronged. He even fights with Lingxian every day."
The corners of Yan Qingqiu's mouth twitched slightly, and he quickly stepped forward to pull Li Rongsen, saying, "Alright, alright, stop talking. Let's go out and pick up some rocks. It'll be time for dinner soon."
"Don't misunderstand him. He only loves you." Li Rongsen felt that it was his responsibility to make it clear for Yan Qingqiu.
An Yanqing coughed and said, "Oh, I see."
Yan Qingqiu stood behind Li Rongsen and slapped his forehead. What sin had he committed?
An Yan walked around the screen and into the inner room. She couldn't help but chuckle. She thought that Yan Qingqiu was more pitiful, as he was always annoyed by Li Rongsen.
Yan Qingqiu and Li Rongsen were tidying up the flower garden in the yard.
An Yan was making gold needles in the house. Fortunately, there was no shortage of gold here, and she was quite skilled in this craft. She quickly made a set, but it was a pity for the herbs she brought with her.
There seemed to be some movement outside, and Yan Qingqiu was heard saying outside: "An Yan, someone is coming from West City."
"What? What are they doing here?" An Yan asked as she walked outside.
"I brought a group of people here before, but they were all turned away by the spiritual immortals. I informed the old man yesterday, and he brought a new group of people and some gifts." Yan Qingqiu explained to her.
"Even such a stingy old man would bring gifts." An Yan chuckled. She didn't believe it would be something valuable.
"It's just some snacks and stuff, nothing else." Yan Qingqiu said.
An Yan walked out and found that the yard was full of butterflies. Seeing that Li Rongsen was still busy, she said to him, "Don't be busy anymore. Wash your hands and go inside to rest."
"It's almost done." Li Rongsen said as he piled the last stone outside the flower bed.
"You are really lazy." An Yan immediately gave Yan Qingqiu a blank look.
Yan Qingqiu disagreed and whispered, "This little bit of suffering is nothing. You've suffered much more than him."
An Yan gave Yan Qingqiu a look, indicating that he should not be so willful anymore.
Yan Qingqiu shrugged and said to Li Rongsen, "Come on, I'll take you to wash your hands." Then he pulled him into the house.
At this moment, Meidie walked in from outside the courtyard and said, "An Yan, are you surprised to see me?"
"I knew it was you when I saw the butterflies all over the yard." An Yan said with a smile, looking her up and down, and found that she was becoming more and more beautiful.
"I came to pick you up. The old man was terribly worried, afraid that you would suffer here. When he heard that you were free now, he hurriedly called me to come and pick you up."
"I'll stay for two more days." said An Yan.
Meidie was surprised and asked, "Why do you want to stay here? Let's go now. After all, this is not a place to stay for long."
"It takes several days to get here from Xicheng, how come you got here in one day?" An Yan was a little surprised.
"It's not a day, it's the time it takes to get here in the space of an incense stick." Mei Die giggled and said, "The old man borrowed a mount from the Lord of the Dark Moon Realm, so he can get here very quickly."
"He's quite shameless. He borrowed money even if it wasn't a serious matter."
"The old man invited the Lord of Dark Moon Realm to come for a three-day feast, and he is enjoying the meal now." Mei Die raised her eyebrows slightly.
An Yan lowered her eyes and chuckled, then asked, "Have you seen the young master here?"
"Why should I see him? I'm not here to pick him up."
"Whether you see me or not is secondary, but isn't it a bit too much to have butterflies all over the city?" No one knew when Linghai came. He originally stood on the courtyard wall and then jumped into the courtyard.
