I am reborn and refuse to be a sickly rich woman

Chapter 378 I was forced to play both sides! (5.4k please subscribe!)

The moment when the old father talks to the little yellow-haired boy.

The old man took his daughter to the yard to practice martial arts after dinner, and he wielded the sword with great vigor.

An Nuannuan was chatting with her grandmother in the living room.

The grandmother always looks at her granddaughter's belly from time to time. She doesn't know if it's because she wears more clothes in winter, but it seems to be rounder than before.

"Nuan Nuan."

Grandma called out softly, slowly pulled her granddaughter's hand, and gently placed three fingers on her granddaughter's wrist.

"OK."

An Nuannuan responded, thinking that her grandmother would definitely ask about the engagement, but just now her grandparents didn't seem to have any objection at all.

This made the girl very happy.

But the grandmother did move her fingers slightly, looked at her eldest granddaughter, and said kindly: "Nuannuan, are you pregnant?"

An Nuannuan:?

"Grandma means, are you pregnant?"

Grandma asked softly, looking into her granddaughter's big eyes.

"No, no, grandma, why do you say that..."

An Nuannuan felt a little hot and tingling at this question.

Things like pregnancy... An Nuannuan is no longer the little girl who knew nothing about this.

She used to really believe that if two people slept in the same bed, a god would secretly stuff a baby into the quilt.

But since she got together with the "pervert" Xu Musen, she has passively learned a lot of knowledge.

They have always been safety-conscious.

Grandma felt her pulse, breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "I noticed that you had no appetite today, and your face has become rounder recently. Plus, you suddenly mentioned the engagement, so I thought... Grandma was overthinking."

Grandma said this, and she smiled kindly as she looked at her granddaughter's cheeks which were getting redder and redder.

"No way... Mu Sen said I'm not fat at all."

An Nuannuan also touched her belly, remembered what Xu Musen said to her in the bridal shop today, and subconsciously straightened her back.

There is a little bit of fat on the belly, but most of the fat is in the right place~
"That's because he likes you. How can someone who truly loves his or her significant other dislike her being fat? It's better to say that getting fat together is a kind of happiness."

The grandmother touched her granddaughter's head with a smile, and looked at her with regret, thinking that her granddaughter was really old enough to get married.

"Grandma, what do you and grandpa think about my engagement with Mu Sen?" An Nuannuan raised her head and asked.

Grandma just sighed and then laughed: "Does it matter what we think? Whether we agree or not, you will agree to him."

"Hehe..." An Nuannuan smiled foolishly.

"Silly girl, I really don't know what kind of magic potion this little guy has fed you."

Grandma pinched her granddaughter's cheek, but no matter what, compared to the Nuannuan who used to sit in a wheelchair in a daze every day and rarely spoke to anyone.

Now, Nuannuan, who has her own little temper, personality, and even a bit of the stubbornness of a girl, is more like a living person.

Grandma spoke earnestly.

"Nuannuan, nothing in this world can be concluded in advance. Where a road leads to, you can only know it when you reach the end. As long as you feel that the road you are on with him is not wrong, then go ahead boldly. Grandpa and grandma, Nannan, and your dad, we will always stand behind you and accompany you. With us, don't be afraid of anything."

Grandma's tone was kind and gentle, and full of endless confidence for her granddaughter.

An Nuannuan walked over and hugged her grandmother.

"Grandma, thank you."

"Well, your little fiancé is out too."

Grandma patted her granddaughter on the back, and when she looked over, Xu Musen had already walked out of the study.

An Nuannuan felt a little shy because of her grandma's slightly teasing tone. She turned around and looked at Xu Musen who had walked up to her.

"Have you finished talking to my dad?" An Nuannuan's eyes were filled with a hint of regret.

"Well, you should go and have a look too. I think I have something to tell you."

Xu Musen gave her a reassuring look.

"Yeah." An Nuannuan nodded. She never hesitated about Xu Musen's words. She walked towards the study.

"This girl will listen to you now."

The grandmother looked at her granddaughter who followed her husband's lead, smiled and shook her head, then looked at Xu Musen again: "Is Nuan Nuan's father not giving you any trouble?"

"No, what my uncle told me is what I need to pay attention to."

Xu Musen spoke slowly: "Thank you grandma for supporting me and Nuannuan. I will definitely treat Nuannuan better in the future."

"That girl Nuannuan is almost making my ears calloused with her words."

Grandma smiled kindly, "As long as you are happy, remember, two people will definitely experience quarrels in their lifetime, and even quarrels that seem to be unable to end. But no matter what happens in the future, you must remember how much you like each other now. Life is like a pot of drink that is constantly added with fresh water. The sweetness at the beginning will always be diluted by the fresh water again and again, but you must not forget the sweetness you once had. The sweetness has not disappeared, and it has become a part of each other. You must rely on it to accompany you for the rest of your life."

Grandma spoke earnestly, and in her words she had already acknowledged Xu Musen as her future grandson-in-law.

"I remember that. Thank you, grandma."

Xu Musen nodded solemnly.

……

At this moment, An Nuannuan came to the study.

"dad."

When An Shanhai saw his daughter come in, his slightly frowned brows instantly smoothed out.

"How did you come?"

An Shanhai looked at his daughter sitting obediently in front of him. He looked at her carefully for a long time and had to say that his daughter had changed a lot in the past two years.

In his heart, he is still a child, but in the blink of an eye, he has reached the age where he can prepare for marriage.

"Mu Sen asked me to come. He said you had something to ask me too."

An Nuannuan paused for a moment, then blinked her clear and bright eyes.

An Shanhai was speechless for a moment, looking at his daughter with a sincere face. He originally thought that his daughter came to comfort her old father...

Why does this little cotton-padded jacket feel a little drafty?
"I'm... Nuan Nuan, do you want to talk to daddy?"

"Have."

An Nuannuan nodded and asked seriously, "Dad, you weren't mean to him just now, were you?"

An Shanhai: ...

"My daughter, Dad looks like that kind of..." An Shanhai didn't finish his words. He remembered that he was indeed mean to him just now, but that was because of what he said. Which father would not be angry?
An Shanhai took a deep breath and said, "Nuannuan, aren't you curious whether your boyfriend is rude to me?"

"He won't, he's not that kind of person." An Nuannuan immediately shook her head, her face full of trust in Xu Musen.

An Shanhai: ...

So your father is this kind of person, right?
This little cotton jacket is no longer warm at all!

An Shanhai felt like crying but had no tears. However, when he saw the light in his daughter's eyes, he was reminded of the time many years ago when his daughter always sat in a wheelchair in a daze with lifeless eyes.

At this moment, my daughter actually looks like a girl of her age.

He could only swallow his anger and said, "Nuan Nuan, I don't object to you two being together. Mu Sen is a very good kid, and I can see how much he cares for you and how much he loves you. But...getting engaged and getting married is a lifelong event, after all. It's different from being in a relationship. Dad hopes that you can resolve all the discord between you before deciding to get engaged."

An Nuannuan didn't think too much about it. She nodded: "Yeah, I know."

An Shanhai hesitated for a second before finally deciding to speak: "Nuannuan, what Dad meant is that the girl beside him... named Yao Mingyue..."

An Nuannuan: "I know all this, he told me."

An Shanhai paused, not knowing whether to sigh or get angry.

That brat really didn't lie. He really didn't hide these things and was playing two-timing.

No, you are justified if you step on it openly? !

"Nuan Nuan, you... don't you have any ideas?"

An Shanhai looked at his daughter, who didn't seem anxious at all, and didn't know what to do for a moment.

"Mu Sen promised me that he would take care of everything and stay with me forever. I believe him."

There was no bitterness nor strength or calmness in An Nuannuan's tone, only the reassuring feeling of completely trusting a person.

"Nuan Nuan..."

An Shanhai clenched his fists: "Dad is just afraid that you will be wronged in the future. After all, you are a girl. What if he changes his mind in the future..."

"Dad." An Nuannuan interrupted her father's words with a soft voice: "This is the only thing he won't do."

"You've only been with him for a year or two. People change."

"I know that, but he is a stubborn person who loves to get stuck in a rut, and he will get stuck in a rut for the rest of his life..."

An Nuannuan smiled faintly, looking back at the past. She had been looking at Xu Musen for more than just one or two years.

She was like a shadow, always watching him silently from behind.

I also saw that no matter how much pain and grievance he suffered, he was disappointed with Yao Mingyue, angry, quarreled with her, and even thought about breaking up, but he never changed his heart. Even at the last moment of his life, he would still protect her...

An Nuannuan liked this about him, and naturally she knew that she would have to face this one day sooner or later.

She looked at her father who looked worried.

An Nuannuan no longer looked as silly as before, her eyes were clear and bright: "When I decided to like him, I knew there would be a day when he could have kept it from me, but he didn't, because in his heart, my place doesn't belong to anyone else.

Besides, I like him just because I like him. It doesn’t belong to anyone else. Why should I give in just because someone else likes him too?”

"Daughter, there is no winner or loser in love..."

"Dad, I know you are worried about me, but you also have to have faith in your daughter. I have waited for this day for a long, long time, and I have lost too many opportunities to be with him because of too many concerns..."

An Nuannuan spoke slowly, just like in her previous life, she had always been timid and only dared to hide in the shadows.

If, if she could be braver, if she could show up when Xu Musen needed her, perhaps he would have belonged to her in the previous life.

Perhaps, Xu Musen would not have reached the point of life and death.

Perhaps, everything will be completely different.

She had had enough of that kind of cowardice.

"So, I must fight for it this time. Besides, I still have the advantage now."

An Nuannuan smiled: "I like him, it's not a momentary impulse, it's a long-planned decision, it's the one I will never regret, he will definitely be mine, definitely!"

An Shanhai was a little dazed. He looked at his daughter in front of him. She was smiling sweetly, but she always gave people a paranoid and extreme feeling.

He opened his mouth and suddenly felt... this brat Xu Musen was not two-timing, but his legs were welded to the two boats. Didn't he feel like he was actually a part of the game?

But anyway.

It’s a good thing that Nuannuan is so... motivated. At least, my daughter is not the kind of girl who loses her IQ simply because she falls in love.

An Shanhai took a deep breath, feeling helpless but also somewhat relieved: "Okay, I believe my daughter, since you have made up your mind, then do it. No matter what the result is, this will always be your home."

"Yeah, I know, Dad."

The luster in An Nuannuan's eyes was restrained, as if she had returned to her usual well-behaved and naive appearance. She stood up and walked out of the study.

now.

Xu Musen came to the backyard and sat on the swing. Although it was winter, there were still many flowers carefully cultivated in the shed in the backyard.

He is happy today.

Anyway, the engagement with Nuannuan went smoothly, but the conversation with Nuannuan's father just now was still echoing in his mind.

Yao Mingyue's appearance always appeared in front of his eyes, especially when she was holding a snowman and asked him with red eyes if there would be a chance to watch the snow together in Shanghai in the future...

Xu Musen took a deep breath silently.

I should be happy, but I always feel that the air around me is a little depressing.

"what…"

Suddenly, Xu Musen felt a push from behind, and the whole body began to swing gently, and the wind around him seemed to have completely gotten rid of the dullness.

Xu Musen turned his head and saw An Nannan skipping towards him: "Hey, what are you daydreaming about? Did my dad try to intimidate you, hehehe!"

An Nannan was a little naughty. After pushing Xu Musen, she stood in front of him and made a face at him.

Facing this sister-in-law who seemed to be immature, Xu Musen couldn't help but smile: "What does this little brat know?"

"I'm not a little brat!"

An Nannan pouted her lips and hummed as she came to Xu Musen: "I know, this is called asking for marriage. I am the one you want to curry favor with, don't you know?"

Xu Musen looked at his future sister-in-law in front of him. She was wearing the white and red cotton coat he bought, with two energetic buns on her head, and her skin was fair and tender. Even her teeth were white and shiny when she showed them proudly.

The whole person is very smart.

Xu Musen also felt much more relaxed at this moment, and stretched out his hand to pinch his sister-in-law's cheek: "Then you know, I am the son-in-law, and you, as the sister-in-law, need to serve me tea and water, you know?"

"Bah! The one serving tea and water is a maid, not me! I am a princess!"

An Nannan put her hands on her waist and raised her snow-white chin. Looking at her crystal clear face, she really looked like the little Snow White in the fairy tale.

These two sisters have a magical power that can make anyone feel better with just one look at them.

Xu Musen smiled and said, "Then little princess Nannan, why did you come to see me?"

An Nannan was quite happy to be called a little princess. Her face was slightly red. She gently pinched the corner of her new clothes and twisted her body.

"I'm here... Actually it's nothing, just..."

An Nannan was a girl who rarely acted shy. She blushed slightly at this moment. Looking at Xu Musen's smiling face, she finally said with all her heart: "I just came here to thank you. I was embarrassed to say it because there were so many people around... Actually, the clothes you bought for me are very beautiful. I like them very much!"

Xu Musen was stunned for a moment, looking at the little girl in front of him, he chuckled: "Just because of this?"

"Of course, I'm not the kind of person who doesn't understand things. Hey, is this your attitude when I thank you?"

An Nannan pouted her lips and looked a little unhappy. Shouldn't you say you're welcome at this time?
"Of course I have this attitude, because I have good taste, and my sister-in-law is so beautiful, so of course she will look good in anything she wears."

Xu Musen laughed and couldn't help flicking her pouting lips. They were soft and elastic, and quite funny.

An Nannan's ears were warmed by his praise, but she still snorted on the surface: "Arrogant King, who is your sister-in-law? You haven't even got engaged to my sister yet, I don't recognize you!"

"You don't admit it? Then who can make delicious food for you in the future? Who can take you out to play? Who can give you such beautiful new clothes? Can you still find such a good brother-in-law like me?"

Xu Musen said seriously.

An Nannan's big eyes rolled around, it seemed like it was real...

"Huh, I'm not following you. I'm following my sister. She'll take me with her anyway."

"After I get married, I am the head of the family. If I say I don't want you, then I don't want you. Why don't you obey me and please me?"

Xu Musen leaned on the swing, with an expression that showed he was controlling her.

An Nannan wrinkled her nose: "You are annoying!"

Xu Musen laughed.

An Nannan came over again, her little face red, and spoke in a low voice.

"Hey, if I behave myself in the future... you will take me out to play, make delicious food for me, and buy me beautiful new clothes, right?"

After all, An Nannan was still a little girl in front of Xu Musen, and it was really difficult for her to resist these temptations. Of course, the more important thing was the one or two years of getting along with each other.

In fact, An Nannan had already accepted this future brother-in-law. In fact, she had changed from asking her sister when she would come home to asking when her sister and that annoying guy would come home.

That annoying guy has slowly become a very important person in her life...

"Of course." Xu Musen replied with a smile.

An Nannan's eyes suddenly lit up. Looking at Xu Musen's warm smile, her rosy face couldn't help but feel happy: "Hehe~ Actually, you are still quite handsome at this time. You can be considered my brother-in-law!"

"Shout again and I'll hear you."

"Never…"

"I'll buy you a bunch of candied haws."

"I'll call for two strings."

"I'll buy you ten!"

“Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, brother-in-law, brother-in-law…”

Yes, just like that, the little girl sold her sister.

There was laughter and laughter in the yard.

Seeing this scene, the grandparents in the living room smiled at each other.

An Shanhai in the study also saw this scene through the window. He didn't know whether to laugh or not, but it was true that at this moment his home truly felt like home.

An Nuannuan was in her room at the moment, looking at the yard from the balcony. Xu Musen shamelessly let Nuannuan push her on the swing.

There was a smile on her lips that couldn't be erased.

Xu Musen, I like you so much.

I will never leave you in this life.
