Chapter 236 (revision, 2 chapters merged) wedding countdown (1)
Villa on the third floor.
The two came out of the elevator, and as soon as they turned the corner, they saw Lu Anan and his wife's room at the end of the third floor, three months old sisters-in-law standing together.
McCas was dressed in black home clothes. After handing the big treasure in his arms to the confinement wife, he turned around and carried the second treasure and the little princess out of the room one after another to the confinement wife.
The confinement lady did not leave after picking up the children, but continued to listen to McCas's instructions.
"After feeding the milk powder, take them to the small garden downstairs to bask in the sun and protect them from the sun so that they don't get sunburned."
"Try to let them play more during the day, and slowly adjust their sleep time."
"Xiao Yueyue spit up a little bit of milk last night, pay more attention to her today, don't let her choke on milk."
……
Ye Lan and Lu Shiyao stayed where they were and didn't make a sound, just listening to McCas's careful exhortations to Yuemao.
The more she listened, Ye Lan became more emotional, and couldn't help raising her elbow to touch the child's father next to her.
"Your father is really careful, and it's the first time I've heard him talk so much."
Lu Shiyao remained silent, the serious and majestic face of the tall, muscular middle-aged man was still reflected in his deep eyes.
And when that face mentioned the children, there was a gentleness that did not violate harmony.
A thought suddenly flashed through his mind.
If he could have been by Sister An An's side and watched her birth...
Will he take care of everything in the same way he treats the triplets now?
Not to mention the years of tit-for-tat?
"Baby?"
Seeing that he didn't respond, Ye Lan looked up at him with surprise in her eyes.
When he looked over with his deep eyes, he happened to meet the eyes of McCas who heard the movement and looked over.
Now that she was discovered, Ye Lan simply smiled generously, and pulled Lu Shiyao over: "Uncle."
"Ah."
McCas nodded slightly, and his serious expression a second ago eased instantly, watching the two getting closer.
It's just that when his eyes swept over Lu Shiyao, he was keenly aware of the complexity hidden in his dark eyes.
McCas frowned imperceptibly.
When I looked again, I saw that he had lowered his brows and eyes, and his face was full of laziness and wantonness.
Lu Shiyao naturally knew that the old man was looking at him, but his emotions were still trapped in his childhood memories.
When facing him, there was inevitably a trace of resentment.
He knew that this was a trace of obsession buried deep in his heart.
Even though the two can coexist peacefully now, there is still a thorn in his heart that cannot be pulled out.
-
After Ye Lan and Lu Shiyao took the baby from the confinement wife's arms, they hugged their limp little bodies and didn't want to let go at all.
After a whole day, feeding the three little ones with milk powder, changing diapers, and taking a bath are all done by the two of them, and the confinement wife is just helping.
When the child woke up, the two were holding each other in their arms and teasing.
And when the three little ones occasionally gave out a few cute laughs, the two were also overjoyed, and kissed and kissed on the smooth and tender little faces.
Even when she fell asleep, she couldn't bear to let go of her in her arms.
Ye Lan looked at the three little guys who were already fast asleep on the bed.
It was only a little bit big when it was born, and it was so thin that it made people feel sad.
But after more than two months of careful feeding and care, even the skinniest little Yueyue has some flesh on her face, not to mention the two older brothers who have absorbed nutrients better in her stomach.
The small arms and legs gradually looked like lotus root festivals.
She rejoiced in her heart and felt extremely comforted.
Although they were premature babies, after the three little ones came out of the incubator, they didn't have any minor discomforts.
Except for the few nights when I just returned to the villa from the confinement center, I was crying every day.
In general, these three little guys are still very worry-free.
That night, Ye Lan wanted to take the triplets to sleep in her own room, but after Lu Shiyao reluctantly agreed, she was stopped by Lu An'an.
"Look at me, do you see my dark circles? I stayed up for nearly twenty nights, don't be like me. When you come back, I can be regarded as liberated. I have already made an appointment for tomorrow's body care. "
"Besides, the wedding is not too many days away. You should keep your spirits up and wait to be a beautiful bride."
After some persuasion from Lu Anan, Ye Lan had no choice but to give up.
Seeing that his wife was persuaded by Sister An An, Lu Shiyao also breathed a sigh of relief.
During this period of time, he was used to the world of two people, and suddenly he had to go back to the days when he couldn't hug his wife to sleep, how could he be willing?
Even if his son and daughter are caught in the middle, it won't work.
-
On the first day the two returned home, they took their children at home and didn't go anywhere.
He didn't even bother to pack the large boxes of luggage he brought home.
Waking up together the next day, taking advantage of the time when the triplets were still sleeping, Ye Lan pulled Lu Shiyao to pack up all the luggage and gifts.
She prepared a copy for relatives and friends of the two families, including Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Three Months.
The gifts were not too expensive, they were bought from some interesting and creative shops with Lu Shiyao in the last two days in Country M, the most important thing was a heartfelt gift.
There were too many things, and by the time they were all sorted out and tidied up, she could hardly stand upright.
Maybe it's the sequelae of the caesarean section, or maybe it's because the body hasn't fully recovered after giving birth.
She couldn't stand it after squatting for too long or bending over for too long before getting up again.
"Huh - it's too bad, hurry up, give me a hand."
Putting his hands on Lu Shiyao's shoulders, he almost couldn't get up, and suddenly screamed.
Lu Shiyao knew about her problem, so he directly picked her up and put her on the sofa beside her.
Immediately, he stretched out his hand to gently press her lower back, and said in a heavy tone: "I told you not to do it, I will clean it up, but you still refuse, so show off."
"..."
Ye Lan knew she was wrong, so she didn't refute anymore, she just tilted her head and glanced at his pale face, laughed twice, and changed the subject:
"When you go to the company in the afternoon, remember to bring Xiaochen's gift to him."
Lu Shiyao let out a soft "hmm", rolled his eyelids, and glanced at her: "Aren't you coming with me?"
While speaking, his hands kept moving.
"I'm not going. I'm going back to the company too. I brought some small gifts for everyone and gave them to them."
Ye Lan leaned her face sideways on the sofa, thinking that there was another thing to do, her face started to feel hot.
Fortunately, she was lying on her stomach, so Lu Shiyao couldn't see it from this angle, otherwise she really didn't know how to explain it.
In the afternoon, the two packed up and took their own gifts, and each drove a car to go out.
When Ye Lan arrived at the company, she hadn't seen a group of colleagues for a long time. They were familiar and unfamiliar for a while, but she was happy anyway.
After greeting everyone warmly with a smile on her face, she asked one of her editors to share the gifts she brought with everyone.
Seeing that she had finished exchanging greetings with everyone, Shen Qiaoxi, who had been waiting a long time ago, took her by the shoulders and walked towards the office.
"Let me tell you, I haven't been back for so long, if you fool me with any gift, I won't accept it."
Ye Lan smiled: "Don't worry, you must like it."
As she said that, she glanced at Li Shujing's office that she passed by just now: "By the way, sister Shujing isn't here?"
"Yes, I'm calling inside, and I'll come over after the call."
After the two entered Ye Lan's office, Ye Lan took out two cute little boxes from her big handbag and handed them to Shen Qiaoxi:
"Hey, present, see if you like it."
"You're welcome, sister, then I'll accept it."
Shen Qiaoxi chuckled twice, took it unceremoniously, and sat at the desk to unwrap the gift.
"How are you doing, are you and Sister Shujing okay?"
Ye Lan was leaning on the edge of the desk, with her hands propped back on the desk, watching Shen Qiao unwrap presents, while chatting with her.
During those days in Country M, after all, due to the distance and time difference, most of the mobile phone communication was about work, and they seldom talked about their respective lives.
Shen Qiaoxi unwrapped the presents happily, and she said what she deserved: "We? We're all doing well. I finish my work every day and go to sleep when I get home. Besides work, Sister Shujing is just Xiaoqi..."
Speaking of this, something suddenly came to her mind, and she was hesitating whether to tell Ye Lan, but the gift she opened in her hand attracted all her attention.
"Wow, what a cute little thing, is this...pocket watch blush?"
While speaking, she opened the small and retro exquisite pink pocket watch with both hands, and when she took a closer look, blush was still her favorite color.
Now I can't put it down even more.
Seeing that she really liked it, Ye Lan couldn't help raising the corners of her lips, and pointed to another box: "Well, there is also a pocket watch necklace I made myself, you should like it too."
"What do you like? Let me see too."
The door of the office was half-closed. When Li Shujing opened the door and came in, she happened to hear the conversation between the two, and a smile appeared on her beautiful face.
"Come on, sister Shujing, and show you the gift Xiaolan brought. It's beautiful and cute, and you will definitely like it."
Shen Qiaoxi waved to Li Shujing, she knew that with Ye Lan's personality, the gift she would give her and Li Shujing must be the same.
"Miss Shujing."
Ye Lan straightened up, greeted her with a smile, then took out another set of boxes similar to Shen Qiaoxi's from her bag and handed it to her.
"This is what Xiaoyao and I found in a handmade shop. It's all handmade by the boss himself. It's beautiful and healthy."
"Thank you, then I'll accept it without hesitation!"
Li Shujing took it with a smile, sat down beside Shen Qiaoxi, picked up the vintage pocket watch she handed over, and admired it carefully.
After a while, the three of them finished chatting about the gift, and Li Shujing asked with concern:
"You just came back, how are you getting ready for the wedding? Is there anything else we can do for you?"
"Hehe... everything is ready, you two can just be bridesmaids at ease."
Speaking of this, Ye Lan was also quite guilty, because she really didn't participate in the wedding at all.
Except for providing Lu Anan with the list of banquets and finding Xiaoqi to be the little flower girl, she didn't worry about anything else at all.
Seeing her awkward smile, Shen Qiaoxi couldn't help teasing: "Happy Mrs. Lu, you must be the happiest bride in the world. You don't have to worry about anything, just be beautiful."
Ye Lan also accepted her joke with a smile on her face, after all, there was nothing to refute.
But I still joked with her: "What I am most worried about now is how to get my best friend to grab the stick flowers at the wedding and get married quickly."
When Shen Qiaoxi heard this, someone's figure suddenly appeared in his mind, and he felt a little guilty for no reason when he met Ye Lan's smiling eyes.
She didn't tell Xiao Lan about her relationship with that person. She will know by then, so she shouldn't be angry, right?
It's just that the two of them agreed to keep it a secret, and she can't break the agreement.
Li Shujing listened to the two joking with each other and was about to say something when the phone rang suddenly.
When Ye Lan and Shen Qiaoxi heard the ringing, they subconsciously kept quiet so that Li Shujing could answer the call.
Unexpectedly, after she glanced at the screen, she pressed the phone with a slightly unnatural expression, and the ringing stopped suddenly.
Ye Lan and Shen Qiaoxi looked at each other.
Unexpectedly, Li Shujing's cell phone rang again.
Li Shujing didn't need to look, she knew it was that person calling again.
She cursed secretly, stood up, calmed down her emotions, and said to the two with a smile:
"You two talk first, I'll answer the phone."
With a soft "bang", Li Shujing's slim figure was hidden outside the door.
Ye Lan withdrew her gaze, pondered for a moment, then looked at Shen Qiaoxi, and happened to bump into a look of hesitation on her face.
"what happened?"
A look of hesitating.
Shen Qiaoxi thought about it in her mind, and finally said it: "Well... Actually, there are two people who have been pursuing Sister Shujing, and you know both of them."
"I know?"
She is not surprised that Li Shujing, who has outstanding looks and abilities, is pursued by someone.
It's just that I really can't think of anyone I know who would have an intersection with Li Shujing.
Shen Qiaoxi nodded: "Well, one is Lawyer He who helped you with the lawsuit before, and the other is...well, it's your husband's second brother."
Brother Xiaoyao?
Ye Lan was really stunned for a few seconds, she never thought it would be Lu Shiqian, and couldn't help but picture the two standing together in her mind.
One is elegant and expensive, the other is glamorous...
It looks really good.
It's just that she suddenly remembered something, looked at Shen Qiaoxi, and said hesitantly: "Sister Shujing...do you know that Lawyer He and Brother Xiaoyao are friends?"
Shen Qiaoxi was also a little confused when she heard it: "No...you know?"
She doesn't know either.
It's just... Lawyer He often sends flowers to the company, and President Lu is courteous from Xiaoqi. They probably don't know about it, do they?
Ye Lan pondered for a few seconds: "Whether she knows it or not, you have to tell her."
This can be big or small.
Although I don't know how close and close friends Lawyer He and Xiao Yao's second brother are, one day the two find out that they are pursuing the same woman...
Then Sister Shujing was passive in the middle, and might be labeled as destroying the relationship between the two of them.
As soon as the two discussed it, they planned to strike while the iron was hot, and told Li Shujing when she came back from the phone call.
Unexpectedly, I didn't see her come back after waiting for more than ten minutes. I only found out after asking her assistant. Li Shujing left in a hurry after answering the phone.
Before leaving, I only told my assistant that I had to leave first, and I didn't have time to say anything else.
Ye Lan and Shen Qiaoxi looked at each other, after thinking about it, Ye Lan still called, but no one answered the phone.
"Maybe I was driving, and I didn't hear the phone ringing, so I'll call it later."
Shen Qiaoxi does this sometimes, so she doesn't worry too much.
"Well, that's all there is to it."
Saying that, Ye Lan lowered her eyebrows, picked up her phone and sent a message to Li Shujing.
