Chapter 536: Chapter 536: Heaven-sent Marriage (Fifth Update)
Yan Bo naturally stretched out his arm and put it around her shoulders, "What’s there to ask for? Just cherish each other... "
Zhu Qianying put her hand on her lips, made a "hush" sound, indicating him to maintain respect and refrain from excessive speech in such a sacred Buddhist place.
And Zhu Qianying’s guess was absolutely correct!
Chen Jing and Lady Yan indeed wanted to draw marriage lots for the young couple, and Yan Bo, who had always been obedient, would naturally follow his wife’s instructions without question.
Indeed, it was an issue that couldn’t be taken lightly.
Throughout their journey as a young couple, since their marriage five years ago, there had been constant setbacks.
After a five-year separation, they seemed to have reconciled recently. The elders finally breathed a sigh of relief, but to their surprise, Zhu Qianying began to encounter misfortunes one after another shortly after.
At first, Chen Jing only mentioned about getting a peace amulet. But this morning, during a conversation with Lady Yan, they decided to draw lots.
The reason they plotted to separate the couple was naturally out of fear that an unfavorable draw might affect their mood and relationship.
"Ying’er, what do you think? What kind of draw will they get?"
Despite Zhu Qianying’s warning, Yan Bo couldn’t hide his curiosity.
After all, he had a right to be curious because it involved him and her.
"A Match Made in Heaven!"
Don’t think that Zhu Qianying was just casually speaking. In her heart, at this moment, this was how she felt about her relationship with Yan Bo.
"Well said! I also think we are a match made in heaven!"
Yan Bo seemed to agree and admire Zhu Qianying’s statement. He gazed at her, put his arm around her waist and gently massaged it.
"Does it still hurt?"
Zhu Qianying looked up at him, "Do you mean my hand? Or my waist?"
Yan Bo grabbed her hand and looked at it, "Both!"
"Both hurt!" Zhu Qianying answered promptly.
Yan Bo thought for a moment, took her hand and gently blew on it.
Zhu Qianying couldn’t help laughing at his ludicrous action, "Yan Bo, do you think you’re our baby boy? Even he doesn’t believe in that anymore."
However, Yan Bo, with a determined look, shook his head, "No, it’s a psychological suggestion. You should tell yourself that as long as you blow on it, it won’t hurt. Especially when your husband does it for you, it definitely won’t hurt!"
At this point, Zhu Qianying bent over with laughter, "Yes, if my husband blows on it, he can even blow up flowers!"
Such a shameless man was truly rare to come by!
"Exactly, I also think so, I guess my mouth is quite powerful, maybe it can really blow up flowers!"
...
They sat outside for almost half an hour before they saw Yan Bo escorting the two women out.
"Mom, Dad, where to now?"
Zhu Qianying, sitting under the shade of a tree, was almost falling asleep!
This quiet place was really suitable for sleep.
"We’re going to get peace charms for all of you!"
Lady Yan just answered like this, without mentioning what they had been doing inside for half an hour.
Zhu Qianying and Yan Bo glanced at each other, didn’t ask anything, and just obediently followed.
At first, Lady Yan only said she would get charms for her son, daughter-in-law, and grandchild. But later, after Zhu Qianying suggested to get protection for the entire family, she included Chen Jing as well, securing six peace charms in total.
Then, Chen Jing got two additional peace charms for her own daughter, Zhu Qianyu, and son-in-law Ji Huan. After doing so, Lady Yan dragged Yan Bo and Zhu Qianying to offer incense money and burn incense at the Guanyin Temple for pregnancy.
With this, Zhu Qianying realized, apparently, Lady Yan had been looking forward to having more children in the family to bring some vitality.
...
After returning to the city from the mountain, Chen Jing insisted on returning to the restaurant to check on things. The driver took her to the restaurant first, then took the two elder and young couples to pick up their baby boy from school.
Most of the time, the baby boy was picked up by Yan Bo and the driver. Occasionally, Zhu Qianying would pick him up. Therefore, when the little boy saw his mommy and daddy along with his grandparents coming to pick him up, he was so excited that he started jumping around.
"Grandpa, Grandma, Daddy, Mommy, how come you all came?"
The little boy, with his school bag on his back, scampered over to them, holding the straps of his bag, standing in front of them with a grin on his face.
Then, he tip-toed to Zhu Qianying, gestured her to stoop down, and then whispered in her ear mysteriously.
"Mommy, is there some good news?"
Zhu Qianying patted his little butt and smiled, "Yes!"
"What is it? Am I having a brother or sister?"
Zhu Qianying felt a headache, wondering how long this little guy had been thinking about this.
"I found a little treasure!" Zhu Qianying tried lifting the child, forgetting that her hand was still bandaged.
She forgot, but Yan Bo who was standing by her side didn’t. He swiftly grabbed the boy from Zhu Qianying’s arms.
"This little treasure is kind of heavy. Let me hold him!"
After the family got in the car, Lady Yan gave the peace charms they had just obtained to the baby boy.
The little boy was quite knowledgeable and quickly put the charms into his pocket.
While stuffing them into his pocket, he told Lady Yan, "Thank you, Grandma. I’ll definitely be safe. Don’t worry!"
Lady Yan chuckled while asking him, "Do you know what it is?"
"Of course, I know! This is a peace charm, Bai Xiaolu has one too!"
The little boy’s casual comment made Zhu Qianying pause for a moment.
If she remembered correctly, Bai Shao was also an atheist like her. Could it be that after going through all those changes, Bai Shao had also started to believe in Buddhism?
Zhu Qianying had doubts in her mind, but she didn’t ask her son for more details.
Although they were best friends, there were certain things that if Bai Shao wanted to keep secret, she didn’t want to pry either.
Until they returned home and had dinner, Lady Yan and Yan Bo never mentioned why they had secretly moved away the young couple.
Zhu Qianying guessed that, perhaps the content of the lot wasn’t very good, so they didn’t want them to know.
Zhu Qianying had no intention to ask; firstly, she still didn’t believe in such things; secondly, since the elders wanted to hide it, naturally they felt it inappropriate to let her and Yan Bo know about it.
However, the mystery was finally revealed after the baby boy went to sleep.
The baby boy’s bedroom was next to Yan Bo and Zhu Qianying’s bedroom. Recently, even though he slept alone, he required mommy and daddy to sit by his bed until he fell asleep.
After watching the little boy fall asleep, Yan Bo and Zhu Qianying stealthily left.
Assuming that they were returning to their bedroom, they saw Yan Bo’s parents sitting in the small living room watching TV. Seeing them come out, Lady Yan waved at Zhu Qianying, "Ying’er, come over, let’s chat!"
