Chapter 508 Come and receive your reward
"Of course it's for your wedding, City Lord. The other thing is to discuss which guests should be invited and draw up a list so we can notify them one by one." The old man had a smile on his face and looked very happy.
An Yan was not in a hurry about this matter. She said, "Actually, there's no need to rush. The date hasn't been set yet. Let's see how the situation develops before we discuss it."
"I just want to prepare in advance so that I won't be afraid of being late and making mistakes in a hurry." The old man explained to her with a smile, but he actually thought that the sooner the better, and the wedding should be done quickly so that the whole city can celebrate.
"You should prepare some small things first, one by one." An Yan said this. She actually didn't mind making preparations early.
The old man nodded slightly and said, "It has already begun. There is no need for the city lord to give instructions."
An Yan raised her eyes to look at the old man and asked, "You used the same tricks you taught Li Rongsen to pursue women back then, right?"
The old man was startled at first, then said, "Oh, it's just for fun. He said he wanted to give you something new, but I couldn't think of anything else, so I thought of this."
An Yan chuckled and said, "I'm just asking."
"If there is nothing else, I will leave first." The old man asked tentatively.
"Go." An Yan nodded.
After dinner, she went out of the city to see how the people were doing. When she found that they were all recovered, she returned to her room and began to write.
This novel still needs to be revised. After that, it will be printed out and compiled into a book.
Then she went to pick herbs and prepare to make some usable pills. This was what An Yan planned to use to cure the troublesome thing on her body.
There is no shortage of rare and precious medicinal materials in Xicheng, so it is not difficult for An Yan to prepare the prescription. She picked out a few and threw them into the medicine cauldron, and went outside the yard to pick three Youyue grasses.
After just a cup of tea, you can smell the fragrance of the medicine.
Time is imperceptible to those who work hard.
It was almost dinner time when a man came in. It was Kong Yun. He was dressed very handsomely today. Although he was not suave, he was also heroic. He bowed respectfully to Anyan and said, "City Lord, I'm back."
"Okay, you've worked hard during this period. I'll give you a few days off."
"I'm not tired. I just want to ask if the reward you promised me before still counts." Although Kong Yun is a grown man, he actually felt a little shy when he said this.
An Yan didn't think much about it and just said, "Just go to the old man and get it."
"Okay." Kong Yun said as he hurried out, jumping and skipping over to the old man.
The old man naturally didn't pay much attention to everyone, but Kong Yun was different. He had some skills and had made some achievements. When he saw him come back today, he greeted him with a smile and said, "You're back."
"Well, I just met the city lord. He promised to give me a reward and asked me to come to you to receive it." Kong Yun said.
"Oh, what do you want?" The old man thought that he didn't want anything, just money or something like that, which was not worth mentioning.
But Kong Yun said, "I want to be a city slave. Please, old man, let me sign my name."
The old man's expression changed immediately. He blinked and asked, "Are you kidding me?"
"Of course I'm not joking. I've made up my mind since I went from here to Taiping City to receive orders. I just want to work like a slave for the city lord." Kong Yun said seriously.
"But Mr. Li is the City Lord's beloved. This is well known."
"Don't worry, I'll be the younger one and he'll be the older one, I don't mind."
"Mr. Li will definitely mind, and the city lord will not agree." The old man advised him kindly.
But Kong Yun disagreed. He said, "The City Lord just told me to come over to receive the reward, which means he agreed."
"Don't take the chance, let's go and ask now." The old man said as he was about to pull Kong Yun's hand to go to Anyan to ask clearly.
Kong Yun shook off the old man's hand and said, "This isn't a strange thing. You can make the decision yourself. If you become the city lord, what's wrong with having more city slaves? One is good-looking, one is strong, one can tell jokes, one can cook, and the more of everything, the better, isn't it?"
"You are too naughty. Mr. Li will beat you up later." The old man snorted at him. Although he also thought that the city lord could have more city slaves, the city lord had no such intention, and Li Rongsen would not compromise.
Li Rongsen walked over from outside the courtyard and saw the old man and Kong Yun arguing with each other. He asked, "What are you doing?"
"Mr. Li is back." The old man greeted him.
Kong Yun spoke frankly and said to Li Rongsen, "I want to be a city slave. The city lord has already agreed. You won't disagree, will you?"
"What did you say?" Li Rongsen's face had turned gloomy.
"It means what you heard literally. I want to be a city slave."
"You just said that the city lord has agreed?" Li Rongsen frowned.
Kong Yun nodded generously, saying with confidence, "Yes, it was the city lord who asked me to come here to receive the reward from you."
But An Yan was completely wronged. She had never thought about this at all and was just fiddling with the medicinal herbs in her hands.
Although Yan Qingqiu came back with Li Rongsen, he came to find An Yan first. As he walked in from outside, he said, "An Yan, what are you doing? Are you making perfume? The smell is so nice."
"I'm making medicine," An Yan answered him, looking outside and asking, "Why didn't Li Rongsen come back with you?"
"He's going to the yard over there first and will be here soon." Yan Qingqiu walked towards An Yan with a smile and said, "Why, you miss me so much after just one morning's absence."
"Don't argue with me." An Yan sneered at him.
Yan Qingqiu said, "Today, Li Rongsen brought a large cake from outside and prepared to give it to the old man to learn."
"What are you going to do with the cake?" An Yan asked.
"We need cake for a wedding. Let's all try it. It's new and fresh." Yan Qingqiu replied with a smile, and then said, "I like cake. It's really delicious."
An Yan continued to pack up the herbs in her hands, and then went to look through the medical book, writing down everything that was needed.
Yan Qingqiu asked, "Have you found any way to cure it?"
"Looking for it." An Yan replied.
"Just be willful. It will be very upsetting if something bad happens later." Yan Qingqiu didn't expect An Yan to be so willful.
An Yan said: "I won't joke about my life, don't worry."
"I'm not at ease, and there's one thing I really don't understand." Yan Qingqiu expressed his thoughts.
"What don't you understand?" An Yan asked him.
"The worst that can happen is we can just start over. Are you afraid that you won't be able to fall in love with him again?" Yan Qingqiu asked her. Seeing that An Yan didn't answer, he added, "There's no need to be afraid of this. With Li Rongsen's ability, are you afraid that he won't try hard enough to pursue you?"
"As long as he doesn't give up." An Yan said.
"How is that possible? Li Rongsen will never give up on you." Yan Qingqiu answered her firmly.
Li Rongsen came in from outside, followed by Kong Yun and the old man.
An Yan asked, "Are you back?"
"Kongyun said that you agreed to let him be your city slave. Is that true?" Li Rongsen asked. His tone was not bad, but a little cold.
"What a joke! Everyone wants to climb into An Yan's bed these days."
"Shut up." Li Rongsen and An Yan scolded him at the same time.
Yan Qingqiu shrugged and didn't dare to speak anymore.
