Chapter 383: Setting the Wine
Seeing that Zhou was about to fall, the jade flowers and plum blossoms behind Zhou hurriedly reached out to help them, and Zhou stabilized his figure.
Then Meihua helped Xiao Rourou up, and Yuhua helped her mother-in-law and took the child by the way.
"Hey, it's really useless to get old. I used to carry one on my back and hold one easily, but now I can't do it. This heart is strong, and the body, hands and eyes can't keep up. ”
Zhou sighed a little, she felt that it was very simple to hold two, who knew that she had more than enough heart and not enough strength.
"Mother, how old are you, the main thing is that you are so happy to see your eldest baby grandson."
Yuhua comforted her mother-in-law.
Zhou is not that sentimental person, and he relieved himself after sighing.
She hugged Xiao Rourou and said with a smile: "Grandma's good heart, what's wrong?" Look at grandma hugging your brother, you are still fighting, you are the eldest sister, you can't be careful. Come, grandma, kiss. ”
Xiao Rourou saw that her grandmother finally hugged herself, laughed, stretched out her mouth and kissed Zhou's face, and Zhou's smile opened her eyebrows.
Then Qiao'e, Qiaohong, and Osmanthus all came separately. It's not lively to talk and laugh together in a room.
A few people laughed a few more words, and the maid came to report that the old lady of the Yu family was here.
Qiao Zhen hurriedly led someone out.
In addition to the old lady, the Yu family also came to the third lady of Yu and two grandmothers.
Qiaozhen greeted the old lady.
The old lady helped her up and said angrily: "It's not an outsider, what are you doing when you come out?" It's windy outside, be careful of hurting your body, but you can suffer it. ”
The old lady's words were full of concern for Qiaozhen.
"You're here, don't come out and say how to say the past."
Qiao Zhen laughed, usually they don't pay attention to these, but today the other people in the Yu family are also there, she has to do enough.
"Something polite to me."
The old lady took Qiaozhen's hand and patted it lightly.
Looking at Qiao Zhen's meat hands full of small pits, she couldn't help laughing, and Qiao Zhen blushed when she laughed.
The intimate behavior of the two. Mrs. Yusan and the two grandmothers behind her, who were watching, sighed in their hearts.
Why did this old ancestor of his own family take a woman from a peasant family in his eyes, and he couldn't protect it.
Although she is said to be the eldest daughter-in-law of the Duke of Zhenguo, and she may be the wife of the uncle in the future, this cannot change her background.
She came from a farming family. He was married, and was divorced for childlessness and fornication.
Such a woman should have been lonely all her life, but she actually caught up with Chen Gongzi, so she has today's wealth.
But no matter how rich she is, she can't change her disgraceful past.
I don't know what the ancestors have taken a fancy to her, they protect her like that, and they always think of her when there are good things.
Speaking of which, this woman's life is really good, and her stomach is also angry.
actually gave birth to the eldest grandson of the Chen family, and now she can raise her eyebrows.
But no matter how much she raises her eyebrows, she can't get on the stage.
When I arrived in the capital, I compared with those noble ladies. She'd have to be ashamed of herself.
Several grandmothers of the Yu family couldn't stop talking about Qiaozhen in their hearts, but their faces didn't show it, but they smiled and couldn't stop congratulating Qiaozhen.
Qiaozhen welcomed a few people into the room and respectfully invited the old lady to sit down.
The old lady did not come first. Instead, they sat with Chen and Grandma Yu, and a few people talked.
Chen and Grandma Yu are no strangers to the old lady.
When the old lady has nothing to do, she will go to the Zhuangzi to sit, walk, talk to a few old people, and feel the simplicity of the people in the Zhuangzi.
So today, when I saw each other, I was also cordial, greeting each other, and I was familiar.
The third lady of the jade family and the two grandmothers of the jade family originally wanted to follow the old lady to sit on the throne. But the old lady didn't pay attention to this, so they had to smile and sit casually.
They really don't understand what the old ancestor and these mud legs have to say.
It's just that they gave birth to a girl and married a good mother-in-law, and they only ascended to the sky in one step, otherwise they usually wouldn't even take a look at it when they saw it, let alone laugh and laugh like this now.
Not to mention the people in the house. Qiaozhen is starting to get busy.
There are constantly maids and mothers-in-law reporting that what Mrs. is coming.
Even if she didn't go out, she only stood at the door to greet people, and her face stiffened.
One on the left, one on the right. Everyone has to be politely entertained.
When there was a lot of time, Qiaozhen ordered someone to lead the way to the flower hall, otherwise he couldn't sit down.
Tables are set up in the flower hall, tea, water, melons and fruit snacks, all available, mainly to greet women.
Qiao Zhen originally thought that five tables were enough, but he didn't expect it to increase to eight tables and then to ten.
It was open until the twelfth table before he could sit down.
Looking at the full table and looking at the black pressed human heads, Qiao Zhen felt dizzy, and he didn't know where these many people came from.
Many of them she didn't know, they were all new faces, and they were seeing each other for the first time.
There are many people who have been invited, and they can't help but come by themselves, and they also bring their relatives who turn the corner.
People are not white belts, people come, gifts are given, and they say good things with a smile, but they can't drive people out.
So many people came like this.
Although she is soft on receiving gifts, she doesn't feel very happy, and this kind of entertainment is not as good as getting together with people close to her.
Qiao Zhen raised his glass, and the flower hall slowly quieted down.
Qiao Zhen said a few polite words, nothing more than thanking everyone for coming to the banquet where her son was born today, thanking everyone for their appreciation, thanking everyone for their support for the Chen family, and hoping everyone to eat and drink well.
After she finished speaking, she took a drink first, and then asked everyone to move their chopsticks.
Then they ate and talked at each table.
Many people came to toast with Qiao Zhen, and Qiao Zhen thanked him with tea and wine.
She has to breastfeed, and she can't drink a lot of alcohol, and the first cup already means.
Qiao Zhen accompanied her to eat at the table.
Today's banquet is good, it was made by the master.
Both the color and the taste are first-class.
But the minds of the people at the table were not on the food.
They are all communicating with each other, looking forward to meeting more people, which will be helpful for their families in the future.
The lively and lively food lasted for more than an hour, and the crowd almost dispersed.
Only a few of the more close-knit ones remained.
The old lady of the Yu family also led people back first, she was old, and she didn't like such an occasion, today is Qiaozhen gave birth to a son and was happy to set up wine, and changed to another family, no matter how big the power is, she will not participate in person.
Sent everyone away, and Qiao Zhen didn't have time to sigh. Zhou led everyone to go back.
"Mother, it's okay, you can stay longer."
Qiaozhen kept it, anyway, the Wang family is here. There is no need to rush back, she thinks about grandma, dad and mother, they will come back after dinner.
"No, Zhen'er, my mother also wants to stay with you to help, but if you don't hit it today, no matter who you are today, you can't stay until it's dark. Otherwise, it will not be good for your child, as is said. We'll go first, and we'll come back to see you in a few days. ”
Zhou said the reason, she actually wanted to stay more. But the rules don't allow it, she doesn't want her daughter and grandson to be bad, so she plans to go back early.
"Well, I don't know what the rules are, but since that's the case. Then I won't keep you. ”
Qiao Zhen nodded, and said: "But mother, there are a lot of dishes prepared in the kitchen today, there are many new dishes that are not used, and there are many dishes that have not been moved at all on the table, it is a pity to pour them out, I think you all bring some back." You can eat it hot at night, and if you can't finish it, you can divide some of it, these are all good things. If you can eat it, you can eat it, and it is not a waste of food. ”
Qiaozhen feels distressed when she thinks about those dishes, although the Chen family is not short of silver, but her background. Make her feel like it's a waste to throw it out.
"Ah, what you said is to my mind, bring, we will bring it, and we can bring as much as we can. Go back and eat it separately, but it's better than throwing it away, otherwise you will lose your life. ”
Zhou led people to the kitchen, and her eyes widened when she looked at those dishes, and shouted: "My God, why are there so many, how many meals do you have to eat to finish it." ”
Qiaozhen asked the cook to help, and found a food box for everyone to pack and take back.
But there are so many meals that the food box is not enough at all.
After Zhou and the others finished loading and leaving, Qiaozhen asked the cook to stay in the house to eat, and asked people to take the good dishes out and give them up in front of the house.
Whoever brings the pot will receive the food.
Although these dishes are no longer as delicate as on the plate, they are all good. It's something that you don't usually see in poor families.
As soon as the news came out, there was a long queue at the gate of Chen's mansion.
They are all ordinary and poor people, and they all have pots or bowls in their hands to receive vegetables, so that their family can have more meat and vegetables in the evening, and they can have a beautiful meal.
Qiaozhen also asked people to send all kinds of gifts into the warehouse first, and then start to classify and store them tomorrow, otherwise it will be inexhaustible today.
After all this, she was able to breathe a sigh of relief.
After feeding the child, she looked back at Chen Xuanyu, who was already snoring.
Chen Xuanyu really ate too much wine today, he was helped in, he couldn't even walk steadily, and he couldn't speak smartly, and he would only giggle when he saw Qiaozhen.
Qiao Zhen knew that he must have been poured too much wine, and even Zhenguo Gong ate too much, let alone him.
Qiaozhen also felt that his waist was about to be broken, and it was very sore.
She stretched, looked at the sleeping child, and then looked inside the room.
Xiao Rourou was taken by Sun Juhua to rest, so she could relax for a while.
Qiao Zhen took off his coat and lay down beside Chen Xuanyu.
She leaned her head lightly on Chen Xuanyu's chest, listening to Chen Xuanyu's even breathing and slight snoring, she felt relieved and steady......
Tapping the storeroom kept her busy for another two days before she was all done.
Qiao Zhen looked at the account book and smacked his tongue, no wonder rich people want to invite guests to set up a banquet, this is a very profitable thing.
This wine for her son was not extravagant, and the gifts she received dazzled her.
There are many treasures among them.
Qiaozhen knew that these were all sent by Zhen Guogong's face. You can't return it, you can only return it slowly in the future.
After all this, it was time for Zhen Guogong and Mr. Wen to get up.
Qiao Zhenzhen led people to help Zhen Guogong and Mr. Wen pack their bags, and the two of them were ready to return to Beijing.
