Chapter 569: Busy Inside and Outside
"There are two or three students who are willing to study seriously. I have to take some medical books with them, and also arrange some herbs to make it easier for them to identify them," said Yan Qingqiu.
"Let's open a clinic there first." An Yan said.
"Well, they have already ordered the renovation and it should be available in a few days." Yan Qingqiu nodded slightly.
An Yan noticed that Yan Qingqiu was a little off today and asked him, "What's wrong with you? Why are you so downcast? Did something happen in the river that made you unhappy?"
"No, I'm just bored because my mouth is idle." Yan Qingqiu only used this as an excuse to hide the sadness in his heart.
An Yan stood up and took out a box of snacks and placed it on the table, saying, "Have some, here are all your favorite snacks."
Yan Qingqiu quickly pretended to be very happy, but he had no appetite at all. He simply stood up and said, "Since the date is set, I will go over and help Li Rongsen. He should be late."
"Okay." An Yan didn't stop him and gestured for him to go.
Li Rongsen was decorating the outside of the city. He planned to hang lanterns everywhere so that it would be bright even at night. The people in the city were also very cooperative and came out to help. Every household made their own lanterns and hung them at the door.
Yan Qingqiu walked out to find Li Rongsen and saw him standing under a lantern, instructing the servants to hang the lantern higher.
Li Rongsen felt two gazes, so he turned around to look. It was Yan Qingqiu standing not far away. He asked him, "Why did you come out? There should be someone by An Yan's side."
"She has already taken the medicine, you can rest assured." Yan Qingqiu said as he walked towards Li Rongsen.
Li Rongsen was stunned at first. Although he knew that An Yan would take the pill sooner or later, he felt a little melancholy when he heard that she had already taken it. This meant that her good days were about to end.
At this time, the worker who was climbing on the lamp asked Li Rongsen: "Mr. Li, is this the way to hang it? Is this right?"
Li Rongsen quickly looked up again and said, "Yes, that's right. There are hooks like this over there."
The worker nodded, then went down to the shelf further ahead to hang the lamp.
Yan Qingqiu patted Li Rongsen on the shoulder and said, "That date was chosen by An Yan for you. I believe she must have done something, otherwise it wouldn't be five days later."
"I know, of course she forced it." Li Rongsen knew what was going on.
Yan Qingqiu didn't say anything else, but just accompanied Li Rongsen and watched the colorful lights light up one by one, like stars in the sky, illuminating the West City.
Li Rongsen said, "I'm going to give her an unforgettable wedding banquet later."
Yan Qingqiu raised the corners of his mouth and chuckled. There is no such thing as unforgettable. No matter how unforgettable it is, there will be no memory of it anymore.
After so many years, Xicheng had its first wedding, and it was the mayor's big wedding, which made everyone very happy and joyful. After all, everyone thought that An Yan and Li Rongsen were a perfect match, and they should naturally be together.
Li Rongsen had basically finished his work and had made all the necessary arrangements. He was currently writing wedding invitations, intending to invite everyone to attend. He was concentrating on writing, while the old man was beside him, giving him advice.
"Who does Haiguo invite?" Li Rongsen asked the old man.
The old man stroked his beard and said, "There are still two elders in Haiguo. Why not invite the whole family and let them decide who comes and who doesn't? Then it's not our fault for being impolite."
"That's true, let's write them together."
"That won't work. This isn't the custom here. Even if you're a family member, you have to write separately. Everyone is an individual, and each person needs to write their own wedding invitation." The old man kindly reminded him.
"Okay, I'll abide by this rule." Li Rongsen nodded and immediately started writing again.
"Add these people as well. They have some interactions with Xicheng. Although not very frequent, they still need to be taken care of." The old man said as he handed Li Rongsen a few more names.
"Okay, I'll write it in a moment."
The old man looked at Li Rongsen's writing and said with a smile, "You are quite interesting. You are obviously not from ancient times, so how can you write so well? Calligraphy with a brush is not easy to write."
"I just happen to be interested in this and have been writing since I was a child." Li Rongsen said that writing calligraphy is a piece of cake for him.
The old man nodded slightly, and couldn't help but think of An Yan's words "Li Rongsen is worth it".
"Have you contacted all the citizens who will be working at the banquet that day? Give them the money first. There is no need to save it for later." Li Rongsen reminded the old man of this.
"Why? Of course I'll send it out after I've finished the work." The old man felt that this was a loss, what if someone was lazy?
Li Rongsen disagreed. He said, "This is a good omen. Giving it to them first will encourage them to work hard."
"Okay, I'll do it in a moment." The old man nodded.
"By the way, how should these wedding invitations be distributed?" Li Rongsen asked. There is no express delivery here, and the distances between each place are far. Can they be delivered within three days?
The old man laughed and said, "If the leaders of various places don't have any skills, how can they survive in the underworld?"
Li Rongsen raised his eyebrows slightly, and then heard the old man say, "When you finish writing, just give it to me. I will send it to them immediately, and they will receive it in an instant."
"That's good." Li Rongsen did not doubt the old man's ability. As long as he could arrive in West City on time to attend the banquet, it would be fine.
The old man added, "Time is really tight, but fortunately there is no shortage of taverns and similar places in the city, so we can accommodate them well."
"You take care of all these. I have to take care of another thing, which is an important matter." Li Rongsen said as he quickened his writing speed.
"No matter what important matter you take, it's the same if you leave it to me." said the old man. He really wanted to share the burden with him.
Just as he finished speaking, Xu Gongze came over with a plate in his hand. There was something on the plate, and it was covered with a piece of red cloth.
Li Rongsen looked up at him and said, "You're here."
"It's done. Please take a look, Mr. Li." Xu Gongze said respectfully as he walked back into the room.
"Please ask An Yan to come over and take a look. This is for her." Li Rongsen signaled the old man to ask someone to come over.
The old man hurried to An Yan's room and saw her compiling a book. This was a medical book specially compiled for the people in Hedao. It was simple and easy to understand, making it convenient for them to study. He said, "City Lord, Mr. Li invites you to the meeting room."
An Yan looked over and said, "You've been busy for two days, how's it going?"
"Almost done. Everything that needs to be prepared has been prepared. I'm writing the wedding invitations today and will be sending them out soon. We can welcome them the day after tomorrow." The old man said, and then asked An Yan, "City Lord, are you feeling well?"
"Why do you ask?" An Yan was a little surprised. She had been fine recently and hadn't had an attack.
The old man said, "I'm just worried. The city lord is forcing a date, and there must be a price to pay. I'm afraid it will affect your body."
"I'm fine." An Yan told him, signaling him not to worry.
But the old man was genuinely worried. He added, "If it's not about the body, then it's about fate."
"Just let it go. I'll take care of it." An Yan said, and then asked him, "Did Mr. Li invite the Dark Moon Realm Lord?"
"I have invited him, but he may not come." The old man told her the truth.
