I was approached by a cat-eared girl.

Wu Yulan was completely taken aback. He spoke in such mysterious terms, mentioning a purple-robed Grand Celestial Master, the ancestral home of Taoism, and graduates from Tsinghua and Peking Universities. For some reason, she believed him to a large extent.

Looking down at the peach wood board again, I suddenly realized that it was different. It had looked like an ordinary wooden board before, but now it seemed to be glowing.

"Shouldn't we buy one of those cabinets to display this kind of thing?"

“Normally, things of this level are all about sincerity and efficacy, so you can just put them at home without being bound by those customs. But since you said so, let’s buy a shrine and get an incense burner to put in the house, and offer incense and prayers every day.”

After saying that, Chen Jianwen handed over the amulet in his hand, saying, "Find a place to put this away for now."

"okay."

Wu Yulan was still a little dazed. She carefully took the amulet, held it in her arms, looked around the room, and finally tiptoed to put it on the highest shelf in the living room.

"Alright, I'm going to the study now. I'll also buy a shrine and incense burner online while I'm at it." Having finished his boasting, Chen Jianwen, concealing his accomplishments, got up to go into the study.

"Hey, Lao Chen, wait a minute, I need to talk to you about something."

"what's up?"

"Shouldn't we start arranging their wedding?" Wu Yulan asked as she walked over.

"Shall we start making arrangements now?"

“Yeah, I think it’s a good time to start making preparations now. And I remember you told me before, around the time of the Lunar New Year, that our son told you they wanted to get married this year. It’s already July, so let’s start preparing now, lest we run out of time.”

"Who knows if what that kid says is true or not? He's always making things up. Maybe he won't get married this year either."

Chen Jianwen no longer believes what that kid says. Last time, he told him that some animals became spirits after the founding of the People's Republic of China, and that he had seen it with his own eyes. He was so serious at the time, as if it were true. Isn't that just bullshit?

"I think we should call them first to ask what they think, and then we can help make arrangements."

Chen Jianwen was about to take out his phone from his pocket when Wu Yulan stopped him, saying, "Don't rush to call and ask about this. Let's talk about it in a few days."

"I'm just making a phone call to ask, why do I have to wait a few days?"

“I’m afraid they’ll overthink it. If you make this call, they’ll definitely figure out that you’ve been found out.”

"What did you figure out? Explain yourself clearly." Chen Jianwen was completely confused and had no idea what she was talking about.

"That's the one."

"???"

The old man was still confused. Which one was that?

Seeing that he didn't understand, Wu Yulan could only express her guess: "The pigs we raise just ate Qiqi, this little cabbage, a couple of days ago."

"...?"

Chen Jianwen was stunned for a moment, and then he vaguely realized, "You mean...it can't be, right? They've been living together for two years, and now they're only doing that? Is that even possible?"

"I also thought it was unlikely, but it really was true. As soon as Qiqi entered the kitchen, I casually said that she had changed, and her little face turned red instantly. She even stammered nervously when she spoke."

"Based on this?" Chen Jianwen still felt that her guess was unreliable. A young man and a young woman living together for two years.

"There's more, but I can't explain it to you. Anyway, I've been there, so I'm more experienced than you."

"They're more experienced than me? Haven't I been there before?"

"Do you think you know as much about women's affairs as I do?"

“…”

Chen Jianwen was speechless. He didn't want to ask about such things; something just felt off.

This isn't right, this is really wrong.

He thought to himself, "That kid doesn't seem like a decent person at all. I remember two years ago when I was ordered to come to his door to curse him, he even had a girl put cat ears on her head and cosplay with him."

Is this something a decent person would do?

But who would have thought that this guy actually acted like a gentleman for two years? That's outrageous!

"That's why I told you not to call and ask yet. The young lady is shy. Let's just pretend we don't know anything about this. I'm talking to you, did you hear me?"

"If you hear it, pretend you don't know it."

"..."

Wu Yulan was satisfied upon hearing this and took out paper and pen to begin making arrangements for the wedding.

We need to get things ready as soon as possible.

The two used to live together, and I always thought it was because we used proper precautions that we didn't get pregnant. Sometimes I even thought that the two of them were better than them.

After getting married and having sex with Lao Chen, she didn't plan to have children soon, but she got pregnant in less than six months.

After all that, it turns out it wasn't that the measures were good, but rather that there simply wasn't that thing.

Judging from the current situation, the two of them might get pregnant within six months.

So we need to get the wedding done quickly.

Chapter 270 I can't play!

Wu Yulan held a pen in her hand and first wrote Chen Shuo's birth date on the paper. After thinking for a moment, she turned her head and asked, "Qiqi was born on August 15, 2003, right?"

"Seems to be."

"Gregorian calendar or lunar calendar?"

"do not know."

"Never mind if I don't know, let me think of something else first."

Wu Yulan originally planned to write down the two people's birth dates and then find a fortune teller to choose an auspicious date, but since her daughter-in-law's Gregorian and Lunar calendar dates were unknown, she decided to proceed to the next step first.

In other people's homes, when people get married, the two families meet to settle things, then the dowry and other miscellaneous matters are arranged, and then they move in together.

The most important thing is to hold the wedding, which should be on an auspicious day. As for getting the marriage certificate, just pick any day with a meaningful meaning and get it done.

As for my own family's situation, it's more complicated.

The bride price... was already given when the couple renovated their new house. We'll give them some more later, and also buy them a car.

The rest...

Wu Yulan leaned over the coffee table and wrote down her thoughts one by one. Chen Jianwen sat beside her and watched. He then reached out and tidied her loose hair to the side, saying, "I've said before that your handwriting is ugly. I told you to practice, but you didn't listen. It's still as ugly as ever. I've told you so many times, your handwriting reflects your personality."

Am I ugly?

"Not ugly at all, still as beautiful as she was back then."

Chen Jianwen shook his head. Although he had family responsibilities, he had lived a comfortable life for many years. He looked like he was in his early thirties even though he was over forty. It would be an exaggeration to say that he was the same as when he was young, because he was not as youthful and beautiful as he used to be. But now he also showed a mature charm.

"Hmph, that settles it then." Wu Yulan huffed and rolled her eyes at him, her eyes filled with a hint of reproach. That fleeting, playful expression made Chen Jianwen momentarily stunned, as if he were transported back to his youth. He instinctively reached out and pinched her cheek.

"What are you doing?" Wu Yulan slapped his hand aside.

"I'm sleepy, let's go to sleep."

......

In the past few days, Walnut, who had always been able to eat and sleep well, suddenly lost his appetite. Chen Shuo was quite pleased, feeling that this fat guy had finally come to his senses and decided to lose weight.

But then I thought about it again, and it didn't seem to be the case. Walnut was simply unable to eat and felt unwell.

After studying it for a while, Bai Xiaoqi concluded that this situation might be caused by licking her paws.

Cats love to lick their paws to clean themselves, but they also ingest fur, which can accumulate and form hairballs over time. Cat grass can help expel these hairballs.

Little A Miao is also very experienced at licking her paws. Not to mention when she was a cat in the mountains, even now when she wakes up in the morning, she sometimes clenches her little paws into fists and sticks out her little tongue to lick the back of her hands.

But now they are smooth and white little hands, no longer the furry little cat paws of the past, so they no longer lick their fur into their stomachs.

However, she had a secret recipe, which allowed her to eat the magical hairball grass at this time. At first, Chen Shuo didn't understand what the magical hairball grass was.

Later, after an explanation, it became clear that Little Meow had a tough life in the mountains. Sometimes, when she was extremely hungry, she would eat grass. Some of these grasses would cause her to vomit up hairballs after eating them, which was quite magical. The adjective "hairball-vomiting grass" was used to describe this magical hairball-vomiting grass.

Chen Shuo felt that this was not in line with her naming style. According to her usual style, it should be called Cat Grass.

If it's called cat grass, that's very close to its original name. If Chen Shuo remembers correctly, that thing is called cat grass.

Bai Xiaoqi said that she originally called this thing "cat grass," but she was afraid he wouldn't understand, so she called it "magical hairball grass."

Regardless of what it's called, Chen Shuo went out to a nearby pet store and bought some cat grass, some seeds, and a few flower pots on the way, intending to take them home for Bai Xiaoqi to plant.

Compared to buying ready-made produce, Chen Shuo knew she preferred growing her own. On one hand, she enjoyed the sense of accomplishment from the harvest, and on the other hand, she was frugal, as what she grew herself was more cost-effective than what she bought.

Back home, Chen Shuo took cat grass to feed Walnuts, while Bai Xiaoqi happily began her planting project after receiving the seeds.

After eating a handful of cat grass, Walnut vomited up several hairballs in less than half an hour.

Chen Shuo never expected that instead of becoming a cat owner, he would become a hairball scooper. He took a small shovel and put all the vomited hairballs into a plastic bag, then poured a bowl of cat food. Walnut ate very happily this time. As expected of a big orange cat, it had no appetite in the morning, but after vomiting up a few hairballs, it ate the food with gusto, as if it was trying to make up for the loss of the past few days.

"Did Walnut spit out the hairball? Did it spit it out?" Bai Xiaoqi couldn't wait to run down to check as soon as she finished planting the cat grass on the rooftop.

"I just threw up." Chen Shuo pointed to the trash bag next to him.

"what..."

Bai Xiaoqi let out a disappointed "Ah!" Chen Shuo turned his head and gave her a strange look, "It's just a hairball, why are you so disappointed?"

"I want to see it."

"Here you go." Chen Shuo handed over the remaining small handful of cat grass. "There's a little bit left. You can eat it and then spit it out yourself. You lick your paws all the time anyway."

"You're the one licking your paws."

“This morning, as soon as someone woke up, they started licking their paws with their tongue. I know who this person is, but I won’t say.”

"I was licking my hand."

After offering a rebuttal, Bai Xiaoqi decided to ignore him and, taking advantage of the early hour, turned and went out to find Anya to play with.

It's just licking paws, ptooey, licking hands, isn't it?

It's like he's never licked anything before. He not only licks his own hands, but also his... Humph!

It was afternoon, and the sun outside was still quite hot. Bai Xiaoqi walked along the artificial lake towards the north side of the community. Before she even reached the building, she saw Anya standing at the entrance, shielding her eyes from the sun with her hand. Several workers were moving things next to her.

A very large wooden box.

When Anya saw her, she tiptoed and beckoned Bai Xiaoqi to come over quickly. Then she said to the workers next to her, "Masters, this thing is heavy. Please be careful when you lift it."

"Don't worry, we've been doing this for years."
