Chapter 409 Going Back Today
Uncle Wang and Grandma’s wedding was not grand but it was very well-organized. It had everything that was needed, but there were not too many guests. After all, not many people knew them well. Most of them were neighbors who just came to watch the fun.
Fortunately, with An Yan and his group supporting the event, it was quite prosperous. Moreover, they all followed the local customs and dressed like ancient people, all wearing festive clothes.
Yan Qingqiu instructed people to set off firecrackers at the door, and the continuous crackling sounds were deafening.
Meidie walked over and pulled Yan Qingqiu over, saying, "What are you doing? It's almost time to put it out. Let's go inside and have some wine."
"Listen to how lively this sound is! We can't play that in our place."
"If we can't hold it outside, we can hold it in the West City. Hurry up and go in. The bride and groom are waiting for us inside." An Yan signaled Yan Qingqiu to stop making trouble and go into the mansion quickly.
This mansion is not big, with only six rooms in front and back, but it is enough for Uncle Wang and the old woman to live in. After all, this is a world that belongs only to the two of them.
Meidie said to An Yan, "This yard isn't very big, but it looks so cozy. I also want to have a place like this."
"Why, don't you like the splendor of West City?" An Yan asked Mei Die with a smile.
Mei Die immediately said, "That's not the case. I just think a small courtyard like this is very interesting. After you go back, I will ask Ling Hai to give me a small courtyard like this."
"You are such a fool. You don't enjoy your blessings and have to suffer." Yan Qingqiu was very dismissive of her thoughts.
Meidie pouted at him and said, "You don't understand. This is called interest."
Yan Qingqiu didn't argue with her, but just said, "Let's go inside."
Li Rongsen was still standing at the door. No one knew what he was looking at. This prompted An Yan to walk closer to him and call out to him, saying, "Why, you like setting off firecrackers too?"
"I'm just taking a look." Li Rongsen said.
An Yan looked him up and down and asked, "You look quite energetic in this outfit, but why are you wearing it so red?"
"Yan Qingqiu chose it for me. I feel embarrassed to go in. It's like I'm trying to steal the bride." Li Rongsen was standing at the door because of this. He felt that Yan Qingqiu was too uncalculating.
Yan Qingqiu didn't think too much about it. He just wanted to see what Li Rongsen looked like in the ancient groom's clothes and whether he would suit An Yan.
An Yan said: "Don't be afraid, we all have a little red on our bodies."
Li Rongsen looked at An Yan and said, "Your clothes are also nice. Yan Qingqiu really has good taste."
Yan Qingqiu came out from inside and shouted, "Hey, you two, come quickly! Everyone is waiting for you."
"Let's go inside." An Yan motioned Li Rongsen to go in with her.
The banquet has been set up in the house, and now it is the evening meal. Today has been quite a day.
Uncle Wang and the old woman were still dressed in red and had been waiting for them in the house for a long time.
As Yan Qingqiu walked into the house, he said to them, "Hey, you two shouldn't come out to entertain us anymore. It's late at night, and a night of spring is worth a thousand gold."
The old woman was a little shy. She said, "You will be leaving tomorrow, so this meal should be for you to practice."
"We can come again." An Yan said with a smile.
Yan Qingqiu added, "After you've toasted, please go back to the inner room. Otherwise, we'll feel bad."
"Don't be so particular about this. There are many days ahead." Uncle Wang said with a chuckle, glancing at the old woman. Her red outfit today was particularly pleasing to the eye.
Meidie beside him also said: "We have to follow the rules. It's time for you to enter the bridal chamber."
The old woman looked over at An Yan and Li Rongsen, noticing they were dressed in vibrant red, looking like a newlywed couple. She said, "Come and see me when you're free."
"Of course." An Yan nodded.
The bridesmaid came in again and urged: "The two newlyweds should go into the bridal chamber first and complete all the gifts. Why did you lift the red veil? The bride will not receive guests."
The old woman said, "We don't have such customs here."
"So do you want to follow the rules or not? If not, forget it. I can also be lazy for a while." The matchmaker said. She didn't care. Anyway, the money had been collected. It would save trouble if she didn't do it.
An Yanlianji covered the old woman with the red veil hanging on the side and said, "Hurry into the bridal chamber."
Li Rongsen also handed a piece of red satin beside him to Uncle Wang. After Uncle Wang took it, he gave the other end to the old woman and then took her to the main room at the back.
Yan Qingqiu took a sip of wine and said, "Ah, wedding wine is delicious."
Meidie asked them, "Are you leaving tonight or early tomorrow morning?"
"I'll leave in a while." Li Rongsen blurted out.
And An Yan originally meant the same thing. She said, "Go back to Xicheng and spend the night there. Then you can go back there early tomorrow morning."
"That's fine." Meidie nodded, and then took another bite of the dish.
After the commotion, these people planned to go back, and Xingji packed up and threw them on the boat early in the morning.
At this time, Yan Qingqiu and Li Rongsen had already boarded the boat, while An Yan and Mei Die were still talking under the boat.
An Yan handed her a golden needle and said, "This is a life-saving needle. No matter what happens, pierce your heart chakra and it will save your life. Also, remember to contact me often."
Meidie carefully took the golden needle, then took out a hairpin and hid it inside, saying, "I understand. I will be careful."
"I'm not afraid of anything else, but I'm afraid of Lingxian. If she wakes up, she will definitely take it out on you, so I still don't recommend you to stay." An Yan said to her bluntly.
But Meidie was not worried about this. She said, "She has become an idiot. There is nothing to be afraid of."
"I agree with what Yan Qingqiu said. She has a deep mind."
"After such a disaster, her fighting power is no match for mine. Even if she wants to, she can't hurt me." Mei Die didn't agree. But she was still grateful for An Yan's concern for her.
An Yan nodded slightly, thinking that this was a good idea, so she didn't say much, just said: "Okay, I have to go, I'll pick you up when the time comes."
"Okay, be careful on your journey and consummate your relationship with Li Rongsen soon."
An Yan chuckled.
Mei Die then said to An Yan, "I agree with one point. Since you two are really going to get married, why do you have to be husband and wife in name only without actually being husband and wife?"
"You have also been led astray by Yan Qingqiu. What are you thinking about all day long? You won't give up unless you are willing." An Yan sneered at her.
Mei Die smiled and said, "He did it for your own good. He's regretting it now. If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have told you that he liked you. This has caused Li Rongsen to be afraid to be open with you."
"It would be fine if he just changes his tone." An Yan said disapprovingly.
"You still don't understand Li Rongsen's character. He won't believe anything he does now. Yan Qingqiu can't explain it, can't explain it." Meidie said to Anyan seriously, and then said, "How should this play be performed now? It has to break through ethics and morality."
"It's not that serious." An Yan frowned.
"Anyway, Li Rongsen thinks it's very serious. If you don't believe me, just wait and see." Meidie was reminding An Yan, fearing that Li Rongsen might go crazy and keep a distance from her in the future, which would be hurtful.
An Yan nodded, she would pay attention, and said, "Okay, I should get on the boat. Don't keep them waiting for too long. They will definitely be questioned by Yan Qingqiu soon. He has been looking at us from time to time."
"He is just a steward. You should give him an award someday." Mei Die said as she gestured for An Yan to get on the boat, and she watched until the boat disappeared before turning around and going back to the city.
