Chapter 571 Basically OK
Xu Gongze took out a gold pen and turned it around in his hand a few times before seeing words appear: Just watch the show, don't worry about anything else.
This was quite strange. His master had originally told him to stop Li Rongsen and An Yan from getting married, but now he just ignored it. However, he had no objection. This was actually a good thing as he didn't have to take any risks. After all, Li Rongsen had just begun to trust him.
As the sky gradually darkened, Xu Gongze didn't plan to stay here for long. He walked outside, but saw Li Rongsen coming to his yard. He strode forward and asked him, "Mr. Li, why are you here?"
"I'm looking for you. Where have you been?" Li Rongsen stopped, turned to look at Xu Gongze, and said to him.
"There is a very quiet place over there, and there is a pavilion. I'll go sit there, hoping to get some inspiration for making jewelry." Xu Gongze told the truth. He thought that this would not arouse suspicion.
Li Rongsen nodded and said, "Meidi also wants to make a golden crown. Please design one for her."
"Okay." Xu Gongze nodded, and then motioned Li Rongsen to go with him to the gold-making yard.
For several days in a row, lights were on in all the manufacturing places in the city. Everyone worked overtime to prepare for the city lord's wedding banquet, and they had no complaints, all because Li Rongsen gave a lot.
The wedding dress has been prepared and the servants have been ordered to carry it to An Yan's room.
An Yan looked it up and down and said, "This must have taken a lot of effort. How many pearls did you use?"
"One hundred and eight." The old man said with a smile. It took the embroiderer's full efforts to make such a gorgeous dress.
"It's so beautiful! Look at this outer robe, it's a phoenix and made of gold. It's so luxurious." Mei Die was so envious that she didn't even dare to touch the dress for fear of damaging it.
Bei Feng felt that Li Rongsen was very generous and could really do such a thing. He was afraid that it would be difficult to find another wedding dress like this one.
"It's too luxurious." An Yan frowned slightly.
"I don't think so. On the contrary, I think it's just right. Our West City Lord's wedding must be the best." The old man felt that the money was well spent.
Yan Qingqiu asked, "When will the guests arrive?"
"They will arrive before noon tomorrow and will pay their respects before dinner. I have already made all the arrangements and will definitely not neglect the guests." The old man said with a smile, "We should take this opportunity to have a good time together."
An Yan said, "Are all of them invited?"
"Except for the Lord of Dark Moon, everyone else has already replied to me and will arrive on time tomorrow." The old man said with a smile, thinking that West City's reputation was well-deserved. Even if some of them didn't want to come, they wouldn't dare not come, otherwise they would be going against West City. But the Lord of Dark Moon was an exception. He didn't belong to this place originally, so he wouldn't force him.
Yan Qingqiu chuckled and said, "It's going to be lively now. It's going to be a three-day and three-night buffet. I'm really looking forward to it."
"You just think about eating." Meidie sneered at him.
"Otherwise, would I think that if a woman wants to get married, she will naturally think about food." Yan Qingqiu felt that she was thinking too much.
But Meidie didn't think so and said, "You can think about your disciples. Aren't they worth your consideration?"
"Do you believe I will teach you a lesson?" Yan Qingqiu pretended to attack her.
Meidie quickly hid in Beifeng's arms, making faces at Yan Qingqiu while saying, "That girl named Feixue is a good disciple. It's only natural that I should miss her."
"I don't want to bother with you." Yan Qingqiu scoffed, but he couldn't help but admit that this woman named Feixue was very hardworking and ambitious, and she was also very talented. He was afraid that he would not be able to teach her in the near future, so he said to An Yan, "Hey, I have something to discuss with you."
"What's the matter?" An Yan asked.
"Feixue is a very smart woman. She can learn things easily. I plan to let her come and learn from you for a while. I'm afraid she will be able to take care of the pharmacy." Yan Qingqiu said to her.
An Yan was a little surprised and said, "Why, even you can't teach her anymore?"
"That's exactly what I meant." Yan Qingqiu nodded slightly and admitted it generously.
"I can testify that she is indeed a good seedling. Most importantly, she is also very studious and can draw inferences from one example. She is really a good girl." Meidie said this very seriously, and added, "Besides, she is very beautiful."
"You haven't seen her face, so how do you know she must be beautiful?" Yan Qingqiu asked her, wondering if this woman had X-ray vision, since she was clearly wearing a veil all day long.
Meidie chuckled and said, "You haven't seen it, but I have. When she took off her veil, she was indeed very beautiful. There was a small, long scar on her cheek, but I don't think it affected her at all."
"You have actually seen her." For some reason, Yan Qingqiu felt unhappy. He was not the first person to see Feixue's face. Meidie got there first.
Meidie said, "You are jealous."
"Nonsense! How could I be jealous? It's totally untrue." Yan Qingqiu frowned and asked, "Why would she want to see you? Could it be that she studied medicine to heal her face?"
"She didn't say that. You can ask her yourself." Mei Die really didn't know. She looked at An Yan and found that An Yan didn't listen to her and Yan Qingqiu, but was only discussing things with the old man.
"I won't sleep tonight. I have many things to attend to. I'll be receiving guests tomorrow morning," the old man said, leaving the gift list behind. "Tomorrow I'll write down their gifts one by one and return them in equal amounts. We in West City don't need to take advantage of them."
"That's true, and it's just a courtesy between us." An Yan also meant the same thing. She didn't get married to make money.
"By the way, why doesn't Li Rongsen come back? He has been very close to Xu Gongze recently, and the two of them are always together." Yan Qingqiu said.
"Oh, you are jealous again." Meidie teased Yan Qingqiu again.
Yan Qingqiu frowned and said, "You woman are really incomprehensible. You keep saying the word 'jealous'. Why should I be jealous? One is my disciple and the other is my friend."
Meidie said: "You can be jealous too."
Yan Qingqiu sighed, then said to Bei Feng, "Please take this woman away from West City immediately. We are completely incompatible."
"We will leave after the wedding banquet." Beifeng continued.
An Yan asked: "Have you decided yet?"
"Well, we have already discussed it." Meidie also nodded. Although she was reluctant, she still had to leave. After all, she was going to marry him, and she might as well adapt to the new life sooner.
An Yan immediately said to the old man, "Please prepare another gift and have Mei Die take it over."
The old man nodded slightly and said, "I understand. The City Lord doesn't need to worry about these trivial matters anymore. Just be your bride." He continued, "Mr. Li should be here too. He should be crossing the river tonight. We should set off then. It will be dark soon, and how can we set off?"
"Of course he doesn't want to leave early. Maybe he wants to set off early tomorrow morning." Yan Qingqiu could probably guess what Li Rongsen was thinking.
This was exactly what Li Rongsen meant, so he was not in a hurry.
But this made the old man unhappy. He said bluntly: "That won't do. This is the rule. You can't meet the night before. Let him go quickly. You go with him and take the others with you to the river."
