Chapter XXXIV: Genealogy
When Lu Qingrong looked back at the past with curious eyes, Lu Fangyu had already withdrawn that scrutinizing gaze and started to eat again.
Lu Qingrong couldn't help but feel a little funny in his heart, this Lu Fangyu was just a big child......
Just as I was thinking about it, the atmosphere in the courtyard suddenly became warm, and I could hear the laughter outside in the flower hall.
It turned out that Lu Yiduo had returned to the main courtyard and began to toast everyone.
Lu Qingrong looked out through the open carved door of the flower hall, and saw Lu Yiduo, who was dressed in a red wedding dress, standing with a wine glass in his hand, shuttling among the guests.
It didn't take long for Lu Yiduo to walk into the flower hall, his face was already slightly red.
As soon as Lu Qianyu saw her father, she hurriedly put down the flower ball in her hand and stopped playing with Lu Manyu.
Since the room was full of female dependents, Lu Yiduo did not toast from table to table, but just stood in front of the rosewood case in the middle of the north of the flower hall, raised his glass and said some words of thanks to everyone, and then went out to entertain those people in the courtyard again.
Lu Qingrong and the children at their table did not last until the end of the banquet.
As soon as they were over, Mrs. Lu ordered someone to arrange for them to rest.
The three brothers and sisters of Lu Chengjie have been living in the main courtyard with Mrs. Lu, but they don't have to go far.
Cai Qing took Lu Qingrong, walked out of the Weeping Flower Gate with Lu Chengxi and Lu Manyu, and went east and west.
When he returned to the Wisteria Pavilion in the East Courtyard, Lu Qingrong felt that he was too tired to do anything.
She got up earlier than usual today, and tossed until the evening, and it was no wonder that she was still so young that she was not tired.
Thinking that he would follow his mother to greet Mrs. Lu early tomorrow morning, Lu Qingrong immediately changed his clothes and freshened up, and fell asleep.
Unexpectedly, it was only three o'clock the next day, and Tinglan came over and called her.
It turned out that he had to go to the main house with a few children to greet Lu Yiduo and Yin Pingru first, and then everyone went to Mrs. Lu together.
Lu Qingrong originally thought that there was no concubine in this family, so the link of serving tea the next day would be saved......
Tinglan helped Cai Qing change Lu Qingrong's clothes, and at the same time conveyed Yin Pingru's instructions: "Miss, don't forget for a while, you have to call the uncle 'father'." and when I saw the eldest young master, the eldest lady and the second miss, I also had to call my brothers and sisters. ”
Lu Qingrong kept nodding.
Wearing a blue and blue Hangzhou silk jacket, a powder blue skirt, her hair was simply combed in a double snail bun, and she wore a small gilt silver pearl bead flower on one side, Lu Qingrong followed Tinglan to the main house in front.
Entering the hall of the main house, seeing that Lu Chengjie's brothers and sisters were already waiting there, Lu Qingrong was suddenly a little embarrassed.
Thinking that he was the last to come, it didn't seem good not to squeak, so he was a little unaccustomed to whispering "brother, sister".
Lu Chengjie and Lu Fangyu politely replied "Fourth Sister".
Lu Qianyu grinned at Lu Qingrong and laughed.
Lu Qianyu basically didn't pay much attention to Lu Qingrong before, mainly because she was not very familiar with her, and she had Lu Manyu, a playmate of the same age, by her side.
Lu Qianyu, who is often taught by her brothers and sisters on weekdays, now hears that she also has an extra sister, and she can't help but feel very comfortable.
At this time, Lu Yiduo and Yin Pingru also walked out of the inner room one after the other, and sat down on the carved wreath chairs on both sides of the Huanghuali Four Plan in the middle of the hall.
The maids came and placed four red silk futons in front of them.
The four children knelt down in turn, kowtowed to Lu Yiduo and Yin Pingru, and shouted "father, mother" together before getting up.
Yin Pingru rewarded Lu Chengjie's carved bamboo pattern square inkstone, Lu Fangyu and Lu Qianyu each had a green jade bracelet.
Lu Yiduo rewarded Lu Qingrong with two Yanghao Lake pens in Shanlian Town.
Lu Chengjie and Lu Fangyu were a little surprised when they saw each other.
Lu Qingrong couldn't cry or laugh in his heart, it turned out that Lu Yiduo still remembered the last time she wrote......
"From now on, the four of you brothers and sisters must live in harmony, those who are brothers and sisters must love and care for their younger sisters, and those who are sisters must respect their brothers and sisters, and everything is prosperous, and if you are friendly with each other, it will be considered filial piety to me and your mother."
Lu Yiduo briefly admonished a few words.
Several children nodded yes.
Yin Pingru didn't say anything more, and took a few children to the main courtyard with Lu Yiduo.
Today's invitation to peace and recognition of relatives, and there are not many people in attendance.
The ancestors of the Lu family have been passed down for several generations, and it was not until Lu Yiduo's generation that there were two brothers, because the marriage was in a hurry, those distant relatives in Jinan were not able to attend, so the process of recognizing relatives was not very complicated.
The people in Lu Yiduo and Lu Yizhong's two rooms gathered in the flower hall of the main courtyard, and Mrs. Lu sat on the red sandalwood moire armchair in the center.
Lu Yiduo and Yin Pingru knelt in front of their mother and bowed, and Yin Pingru offered tea to Mrs. Lu. Mrs. Lu rewarded a set of red gold garnet stone noodles, plus a pair of green jade bracelets.
Xie Guoxiang got up, Yin Pingru saluted each other with Lu Yizhong and Geng's family, and this recognition was completed.
If recognizing relatives is just a formality, there is a more important link in the back, that is, entering the family tree.
The Great Qi Dynasty's recognition of the position of the main wife was mainly through two ways, one was to record the marriage certificate in the official record, and the other was to write the family tree of the husband's family.
Under the leadership of Mrs. Lu, everyone moved from the flower hall to the Lu family ancestral hall located in the deepest part of the Lu Mansion.
Yin Pingru knelt down again and bowed to the ancestors of the Lu family, and Lu Yiduo, who is now the head of the Lu family, personally wrote Yin Pingru's surname on the family tree.
Yin Pingru immediately got up.
The people thought that today's work was all done.
Unexpectedly, Lu Yiduo made Lu Qingrong kneel down!
Seeing this scene, Lu Yizhong and Geng couldn't help but be surprised.
It is still relatively common to take children to the husband's house when remarrying, but it is nothing more than raising them in the house, how many of them can be serious about the family tree? Not to mention being a girl!
The two of them looked at Mrs. Lu in unison, and when they saw that Mrs. Lu's face was indifferent and there was no surprise, they didn't say anything.
Lu Qingrong, who was kneeling in the middle, couldn't hide his surprise and excitement in his heart, looking at Lu Yiduo's "eldest daughter, youngest daughter" under his name, and then adding the word "third daughter", his eyes suddenly blurred uncontrollably.
Now, she finally has the surname Lu again......
Mrs. Lu saw that she looked touched by kindness, and the original unhappiness in her heart dissipated slightly.
Lu Yiduo wanted Lu Qingrong to be included in the score, and she had discussed her before.
She didn't agree at first, and felt that it was completely unnecessary.
Besides, it's okay to say that Yin Pingru is widowed and remarried, but now that Lu Qingrong's biological father is still alive and well, why bother doing this, if it is entangled in the future, it will only increase the trouble.
But then I thought about what Lu Yiduo said was not unreasonable, it was originally written in the book that Lu Qingrong had nothing to do with the He family, if he did not enter the Lu family's genealogy, if there was another dispute in the future, it would really lose the face of the Lu family......
At this time, Mrs. Lu was still a little upset about the compromise of Lu Qingrong's entry into the score.
But years later, she will sigh at how she made the right decision.
