I am reborn and refuse to be a sickly rich woman

Chapter 401: Family status, good men are all dominated by their wives!
In a cemetery in Shanghai.

During the New Year period, many people come here to burn incense every day. Paper and incense are burned everywhere, and the air is filled with fragrance.

The appearance of Xu Musen and An Nuannuan, dressed in neat suits and white wedding dresses, immediately made everyone look over curiously.

"This person in a suit and wedding dress, is he getting married? Why is he in this place? This is so awkward..."

"There are still so many rules now. I think it's a blessing to be able to bring your new bride here to meet the elders and pray for good deeds during the Chinese New Year..."

It's Chinese New Year, and although people nowadays don't have to wear plain clothes when visiting graves like they used to, and there are many children wearing red cotton-padded jackets, Xu Musen and An Nuannuan's outfits are still too eye-catching.

But An Nuannuan, who was usually shy, did not avoid any eye contact at this moment. She took Xu Musen's arm, walked through the crowd, and came to the end of the cemetery.

Xu Musen looked at the people coming and going to worship and listened to their languages, which included dialects from all over the world.

The cemetery management standards here are actually quite good.

However, with the financial resources available to An Nuannuan's family, they can definitely open a separate cemetery in a place with the best feng shui in Shanghai, such as Sheshan.

"My mother is from Sichuan and she really likes crowds... She chose this cemetery herself."

An Nuannuan saw Xu Musen's gaze. She walked through the crowd and said, "She said that she is such a talkative person. If she is left alone in the mountains, she will be very bored. Many people come to visit the graves here every day. Many people from all over the world are buried here. Maybe she can meet her fellow villagers and chat and play mahjong together..."

"But I know that mom said this because she doesn't want us to be too sad because of her affairs, and this place is close to home... Mom is worried that my daughter and I will come to see her secretly. There are many people here, so we will be safer..."

Xu Musen listened silently, and gradually formed a gentle and clear impression of his mother-in-law, whom he would never have the chance to meet again.

Finally, Xu Musen and An Nuannuan stopped in front of a grave.

inscription.

"The tomb of my beloved wife Wen Ya..."

There is a photo on the tombstone, which shows a beautiful woman with short hair, a slightly round face and a sweet smile.

The tomb was cleaned tidy and there were offerings placed there. There were evergreen trees and flowers on both sides of the tomb. It looked like someone had been paying homage there in the past two days.

"Mom, I'm here to see you."

An Nuannuan looked at the tombstone in front of her. She squatted down, stretched out her hand and gently touched the tombstone. She smiled and said, "Mom, I came here today because I have good news to tell you."

As she spoke, she gently took Xu Musen's arm, and the two of them half-knelt in front of the tombstone.

"Mom, Mu Sen and I are getting engaged today. Look, I'm wearing the wedding dress he bought for me. You've always wanted to see me in a wedding dress. It's really beautiful. Mu Sen and I are on the beach of the Bund, where you and dad confessed your love when you were young..."

An Nuannuan had a happy and somewhat "showy" smile, as if her mother was really alive in front of her at this moment, and she was like an innocent girl showing off to her mother that she had found a good husband.

However, Xu Musen felt a little sour in his nose. Looking at the appearance of An Nuannuan's mother in the photo, their brows were really similar, and her smile was sunny and warm. If she were still there at this moment, she would definitely rub her daughter's face jokingly.

However, at this moment, I can only listen to An Nuannuan's story through the tombstone.

Xu Musen did not disturb her and listened quietly to An Nuannuan chatting with her mother. Xu Musen had never seen An Nuannuan talk so much.

This chattering and vivid appearance is somewhat similar to Nannan. Or, at Nannan's age, An Nuannuan, who can still act coquettishly in her mother's arms, should be such a naive, romantic and childish person.

However, An Nuannuan's smile gradually turned her eyes red.

She didn't know how long she kept talking to herself.

An Nuannuan took out paper money and lit it, and Xu Musen helped An Nuannuan wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"Is my makeup ruined by all the crying? I'm not pretty anymore..."

An Nuannuan sniffed. She was going to attend the engagement party soon and was here to tell her mother the good news, but she couldn't help crying.

"No way, my boss lady is the most beautiful in the world."

Xu Musen said softly, looking at the mother-in-law on the tombstone whom he would never meet again: "I think my mother must think so too."

Xu Musen's identity has been recognized by An Shanhai, so calling her "Mom" is justified.

An Nuannuan and he leaned against each other gently. The change in their address was a manifestation of their feelings finally taking shape. From this moment on, they were truly a family.

Xu Musen knelt on his knees, looked at the tombstone in front of him, and held An Nuannuan's hand tightly.

"Mom, thank you for raising a good girl like Nuan Nuan. It's a great opportunity for a silly boy like me to get a great bargain. Meeting her is the luckiest thing in my life. Please rest assured that I will treat her well."

After saying that, Xu Musen kowtowed four times respectfully in front of the tombstone.

An Nuannuan's eyes were red. She leaned lightly on Xu Musen's shoulder, looking at her mother's name and photo on the tombstone. In the photo, her mother's eyes were curved and her smile was gentle and bright.

She always remembered that her mother was lying in the ward and at the last moment she was holding her hand and stroking her head, with that regretful and distressed smile on her face.

"Nuannuan, I may not be able to accompany you all the time in the future, but... I still hope that you can find your own home in the future. My daughter is so cute and beautiful, she must look beautiful in a wedding dress. In the future, when you find the boy you are willing to accompany your life, you must bring him to me..."

This is the hope a mother leaves for her child to continue living. When her daughter finds someone who is willing to accompany her for life, she will be truly relieved.

Mom…this guy, he really came.

Two people, wearing neat suits and white wedding dresses, leaned against each other in front of the tomb. On the tombstone, the gentle smile of the woman in the photo seemed to have broken through the shackles of life and death.

Weddings and funerals, life and death, seem to have truly transcended time and space.

The breeze blew, and the flowers in front of the tombstone fluttered, and petals fell on the heads of the two people, as if a pair of hands came over and gently stroked their heads...

……

The venue for the engagement party has been set up and all the invitations have been sent out. So far, the only one who has not shown up is her.

Xu Musen made a phone call.

After a while, the call was connected. After two seconds of silence, Yao Mingyue finally spoke first.

"Hey, how come busy Xu has time to call me?"

This familiar pretentious tone now sounds so pleasant to the ear.

Xu Musen smiled and said, "The engagement party is about to begin. Haven't you and our mother arrived yet?"

On the other end of the phone, Yao Mingyue paused for a few seconds before speaking: "You, are you really planning to invite me?"

"What else?" Xu Musen said with a smile: "Some people are fearless, aren't they? Are they planning to flee in the face of danger and dare not come?"

Yao Mingyue gritted her teeth and said, "Aren't you afraid... that I'll make a scene at your engagement party?"

"Do you know?"

Xu Musen asked back without any panic.

"hehe."

Yao Mingyue snorted coldly: "Anyway, in your mind, I am just a psychopath, so what can't I do? Besides... will your young lady boss be happy with me going to your engagement party?"

At the end, Yao Mingyue's words still had a hint of jealousy.

"Then you underestimate me too much. As for family status, anyone can come if I tell them to."

"Haha, is it just you?"

Yao Mingyue couldn't help but laugh: "Others may not know, but I do? Only you are a henpecked husband..."

"Only if you like someone will you be willing to be controlled."

Xu Musen admitted it openly.

On the other end of the phone, Yao Mingyue heard his words, and the pain in her heart seemed to be diluted a little by the brief sweetness.

She opened her mouth, and finally spoke slowly: "You are the only one who talks too much... We just got off the plane, and Aunt Bai is here to pick us up. We'll get ready and we'll be there soon."

"Ok, I will wait for you."

Xu Musen hung up the phone without saying anything extra.

Yao Mingyue looked at the hung up call. It seemed that this guy really had no time to care about those insignificant people when he was so happy...

She raised her head and wherever her eyes went, she could see the festive crowds surrounded by lights and decorations.

……

The engagement party was held on a private beach on the Bund.

The cost of contracting a day here is an astronomical figure. Xu Musen had already contracted the renovation a week in advance, just for today.

Not many people were invited to the engagement party. Xu's father and mother, An Shanhai, and grandparents were entertaining the guests.

"Congratulations, big brother! Today you are finally willing to arrange the lifelong affairs of your precious eldest daughter!"

A hearty laugh was heard, and a man with a strong and sturdy figure came over. This man was the security officer who had helped Xu Musen handle the case before.

As An Nuannuan's uncle, who had helped him so much, Xu Musen personally delivered the invitation.

He came into the hall and hugged An Shanhai.

An Shanhai smiled and nodded: "Girls cannot stay at home when they grow up. They will get married one day, and your daughter will be married sooner or later."

"Hey, my girl is only in high school. I'll see which little bastard dares to have a premature relationship with my girl while I'm here!"

When mentioning his daughter, Director An immediately showed his dignity as an old father. With his status, most little boys would be scared and run away when they heard about it.

An Shanhai smiled and patted his shoulder: "I used to think so, but if your daughter is really determined, don't say you are the director, even if you are the Jade Emperor, you can't stop the Seven Fairies from descending to the earth." Director An's face turned green when he heard this. If his precious daughter suddenly brought a young boy over one day, he would really not be able to bear it, but he could do nothing about it.

"Go away, I won't talk to you about this today. Let me see Nuan Nuan and your uncle!"

As Director An was speaking, Xu Musen and An Nuannuan had already arrived in front of him.

"Uncle An."

"Second uncle."

The two people greeted each other, and Director An's eyes lit up when he looked at Xu Musen and An Nuannuan.

He walked over and pinched Xu Musen's shoulder. Looking at the young man's rare strong figure, he laughed and said, "Okay, okay, you don't have to call me Uncle An anymore. Just follow Nuannuan and call me Second Uncle."

As he spoke, he looked at An Nuannuan, who looked like an angel in her white wedding dress. He said with emotion, "Girl, you have really grown up in the blink of an eye. Your second uncle will always be your second uncle. If anyone dares to bully you in the future, I will lead a dozen police dogs from our bureau to bite him!"

"Cough cough..." Xu Musen coughed dryly.

An Nuannuan's eyebrows curved, and she smiled and nodded: "Yeah, I understand, Second Uncle."

"Hahaha, okay, I won't tease you two anymore. I wish you a happy engagement. Next time I come, it'll be for your wedding!"

Director An smiled and patted Xu Musen on the shoulder, then went to the other side with An Shanhai to entertain the relatives of the An family.

Not long after, a slightly hunched figure came to the door. It was Professor Liang. Her white hair was neatly tied up, and the years had left many wrinkles on her cheeks. She was wearing an ancient long gown today, which was between a cheongsam and a qipao, and was the most luxurious attire they wore in the old Shanghai era.

"Grandma Liang."

An Nuannuan trotted over and supported her arm.

"Nuan Nuan..."

Professor Liang looked at An Nuannuan with a dazed look on his face. Today, An Nuannuan was really beautiful like a fairy.

The most beautiful moment in a woman's life.

"Grandma Liang."

Xu Musen also came over and stood on the other side of Professor Liang.

Today, Xu Musen is still as handsome and steady as ever, a typical wealthy young man at this age.

Professor Liang was relieved and sighed. She gently held An Nuannuan's hand and said, "Good, that's great. It's not easy for you to get to this day. Live a good life in the future and cherish each other. Do you understand?"

"Yeah, don't worry, Grandma Liang."

An Nuannuan nodded, and Professor Liang felt tears welling up in the corners of her eyes. She had been alone all her life, and she had long regarded An Nuannuan as her own granddaughter.

At this moment, grandma also came over and looked at Professor Liang. She walked over to support one of her arms and smiled softly, "Here I am."

"Here we are. It's such a nice warm day. Why don't you come?"

"Tell me in advance so I can have someone pick you up. Are you feeling better lately?"

"It's only a few steps away. It's just an old problem. It doesn't matter..."

The two elderly people, who are nearly 150 years old in total, are walking forward with their arms around each other, like a pair of old best friends.

At this moment, the old man stood behind, not daring to say a word, and followed obediently.

I deeply verified that sentence. When I was eighteen that year, I stood like a minion.

Even if you are eighty years old and encounter this situation, I am afraid it will be the same.

Are childhood sweethearts and a marriage made in heaven destined to have a difficult ending?
Xu Musen sighed in his heart and subconsciously put the scene into his mind... and then An Nuannuan gently shook his arm.

He lowered his head and met An Nuannuan's eyes.

"cough…"

"Yao Mingyue, hasn't she come yet?"

An Nuannuan asked directly.

Xu Musen paused for a moment, and did not answer directly. Instead, he smiled and asked, "Why do you suddenly care about her?"

An Nuannuan pursed her lips and said in a soft but confident voice: "I am the boss's wife. I have to show my courtesy as a host and ask the guests."

Xu Musen was touched by her cuteness: "Aren't you afraid that she will make a scene when she comes?"

With Yao Mingyue's previous temper, if she really didn't care, she would probably do anything.

"She won't."

An Nuannuan shook her head.

"why?"

"Because she likes you."

An Nuannuan said softly, her eyes were a little dim, and she didn't know what tone to use: "It's true. I like you as much as I do."

In the past, Yao Mingyue would of course do whatever it took to make a big scene, but now... they all understood.

If you truly like someone, you must be restrained and hope that the other person can be happy first.

Xu Musen gently stroked An Nuannuan's cheek, thinking of what he had said to her last night. He felt very complicated: "I know, Nuannuan, thank you..."

Before he could finish his words, his fingers that were stroking An Nuannuan's cheek felt painful.

An Nuannuan bit him from the side of her face, showing off her sparkling white teeth. She snorted, "But I also said that before today's engagement party is over, I won't give face to anyone who dares to mess up, and the same goes for you. Anyway... if I bully you, it's just domestic violence, and my second uncle won't help you!"

An Nuannuan bit his finger, her ferocious look was like a kitten panting, not very threatening, but very powerful, especially to the person she really liked, every word she said was like an imperial decree.

"As ordered!"

……

Everyone arrived one after another. Zhou Hangyu, Zhao Lianmai and others had been waiting for a long time. Maybe she could even get the role of a flower girl in a while.

Outside the hall, another figure walked over, Zhu Yulan, and beside her, there was another mature figure following.

Bamboo orchid.

When Xu Musen saw her, he was surprised for a moment.

"Boss Xu, I hope you don't mind coming here uninvited. I have prepared a red envelope for you."

Zhu Xianglan took the initiative to walk over and spoke to Xu Musen with a smile, holding a red envelope in her hand.

Xu Musen glanced at Zhu Yulan. Obviously, Zhu Yulan had a helpless and apologetic look, and it seemed that she was not the one who called out to him.

Xu Musen's impression of Zhu Xianglan was not very good, but from the perspective of her protecting her sister, Xu Musen still admired her very much. A woman who could plan silently to this point must be a ruthless person.

"No need for red envelopes. Thank you for coming to our engagement party."

An Nuannuan took the initiative to speak. She pushed back Zhu Xianglan's red envelope. At this moment, she was wearing a wedding dress, and her words were gentle but particularly powerful. She smiled and looked at Xu Musen: "Then you go and receive the guests."

"Yes, my two distinguished guests, please come this way!"

Xu Musen nodded without hesitation, and happily began to lead the way. His reaction was as if he was giving an order to his own employees.

At this moment, the two sisters were stunned, looking at the girl in the wedding dress in front of them.

The cute little girl from the past is now about to enter the marriage hall, and her words and actions have already demonstrated a maturity that surpasses those "little girls".

Or rather...she is just like that.

But after getting engaged to Xu Musen, she stopped pretending...

Zhu Xianglan looked at An Nuannuan, from top to bottom, from inside to outside. She looked back at her sister and finally sighed slightly.

She came here today just to see how her sister lost. It was such a good opportunity, but Xu Musen was not tempted at all and still chose to get engaged to An Nuannuan.

But today, she immediately realized that her sister was completely crushed in terms of femininity, femininity, and the way she controlled men...

"Sister, please accept my condolences."

Zhu Xianglan sighed and patted her sister's shoulder.

"Don't talk nonsense on such a good day..."

Zhu Yulan is aware of all these and has long recognized herself. She also knows that she cannot wade through this muddy water.

In this life, the only girl who can compete with An Nuannuan is probably her.

She took a deep breath, as if letting out all the air in her chest.

Just as I was about to find a place to sit down, I saw a tall figure flash by in a more remote corner and I didn't have time to see it clearly.

The lights in the hall dimmed.

The protagonist of this engagement party is finally about to appear.

Here it comes, the next chapter will be the big one, I will try to have a chapter of ten thousand words and finish it soon, thank you for your support.
