Chung Yeung Festival has arrived.

This year's Chung Yeung Festival is different from previous years. It's because the old lady of the Hou Mansion Shi family is going to celebrate her birthday this year.

The old lady believes in Buddhism and worships Buddha for many years, and she has always believed in the integrity of chanting scriptures to seek blessings for the historians, so for several years, she refused to wear gold and silver, let alone live any life. In previous years, the old lady's birthday was cooked by the people in the grandmother's courtyard to cook a bowl of longevity noodles, and when she ate it, it was considered a birthday.

However, this year is different, the old lady followed the master who said that she had enough time, and as a lay Buddhist, there is no need to be too restrained, just remember the Buddhist rites in the future. In addition, this year coincides with the old lady's 70th birthday, and the Hou Mansion naturally wants to do it, and it will be beautiful.

Shi Qingqian has been preparing for this day for a long time, just for the gift of the old lady's birthday, she did it herself, and it took more than a month to make it.

For this birthday banquet, the children of the Hou Mansion rushed back, including the eldest brother Shi Nian, who went out to study, and Shi An, who followed the three-party master Shi Shangfei out to do business.

"Big brother!"

Before Shi Nian, who had returned home, entered the door, he was blocked in front of the door by Shi Qingqian. As soon as she heard that her eldest brother was back, she was so happy that she couldn't even eat it, so she ran madly to meet her.

"Why?" Looking at the Jiaojiao in front of him, Shi Nian was stunned, this girl in front of her who looked outstanding and had a beautiful figure, where did she still look like the round-faced little girl in her memory? If it weren't for the innocent nature of those peach blossom eyes, he would not dare to admit it, "You'er, you've grown up." ”

Shi Qingqian didn't expect that the first thing he said when he met was that the eldest brother said that he had grown up. She looked at Shi Nian and saw that he was dressed in green clothes, his long hair was simply half-curled, and his figure was slender, but what remained unchanged was gentleness, so she tilted her head and winked her eyes playfully: "The big brother has grown up, and I almost didn't recognize it, and I thought it was the legendary Prince Pan An who came to the door!" ”

"Well, it's more sharp." Shi Nian gently stroked Shi Qingqian's head, and walked in with her and the people who came to greet him.

Shi on the side saw that he was left out again, so he pretended to be unhappy, "Hmph, this little girl has been every time, and when I saw you, my eldest brother, I forgot about my brother!" ”

"Brother. See you every day! Shi Qingqian raised his chin unconvinced, "Big brother can't see him every day, I think it's too late for big brother!" ”

Shi Nian, who was jealous of his younger brother and sister, had to chuckle, it seems that he has been away from home for so long, and what hasn't changed has not changed.

While laughing and playing, they had already reached the main hall, where the elders and daughters of the family had been waiting for a long time.

Shi Nian hurriedly walked in, and after saluting in a proper manner, he spoke: "Big daddy, big lady, the child is back." ”

"Big brother is back," the eldest lady said with a smile, "You have been gone for two years, and you don't say that you will come back to see, but your mother comes to me every day to complain, saying that her eldest brother does not want to go home." ”

As they spoke, everyone looked at the second lady and saw her sitting in the second seat, and they were really so excited that they burst into tears. The line in the hands of the loving mother, the wandering son's shirt, the wandering son is wandering, how can the mother at home not 'fear of returning late'?

Shi Nian glanced at Mrs. Erfang comfortingly, "Where is this Niang, how can the child not want to go home?" After that, he turned his head to look at the eldest lady, "The eldest lady, during the time when the child is away, my aunt must have bothered you a lot, thank you for accompanying the lady to relieve your sorrows." ”

Of the three ladies of the Hou Mansion, the eldest lady naturally has the highest status, and the remaining two are also gentle and virtuous wives and mothers, who never cause trouble in the Hou Mansion, and the three of them get along very well.

The eldest lady is also willing to treat their children as if they were her own children, but the attitude towards the restless concubines is 108,000 miles apart.

Shi Yuan waved his hand, "Okay, okay, big brother, don't stand stupidly, go to your father's place, they have been waiting for you for a long time." ”

Hearing this, Shi Nian dared to take a seat, as soon as he sat down, the second master Shi Heqing and Mrs. Erfang hurriedly greeted him, and Shi Shuning, who was sitting behind them, was completely ignored.

Shi Qingqian noticed this, and saw that Shi Shuning was not annoyed, but had a look of loss on his face. She thought back to all these years, Shi Shuning really didn't seem to have done anything, in the end, she was also born to his wife, if she didn't have herself, she would be the daughter of the Hou Mansion.

Therefore, Shi Shuning, who was a concubine for a few years before he was born, is still very different from those concubines in the real sense.

She turned her head to look at Lin Xiaoniang and Shi Zhenxiang who were sitting in the corner, because of her grandmother's birthday banquet, Shi Yuan released the two. Her backer has not yet returned, and she doesn't dare to come out.

"The second brother and the third brother should come back too, right?" After a while, Shi Yuan asked. The 'third brother' in his mouth is Shi Shangfei.

As soon as the words fell, I heard a hearty young man's voice outside the door: "Is the big daddy thinking about the child?" ”

Immediately afterwards, two people walked in one after the other, and when everyone saw it, it turned out to be the third old man Shi Shangfei, and a young man who was half familiar with him.

"Second brother! Don't be rude! Shi Shangfei came in, suppressed his voice, and hurriedly saluted: "Big brother, sister-in-law, we're back." ”

There was silence in the hall for a moment, and suddenly it was as if boiling water was boiling, and the pot exploded.

"This is the second brother?" The eldest lady looked at the smiling young man in front of her in surprise, "How did you completely change your appearance?" ”

Shi An in everyone's memory is obviously a small and shy little boy, but Shi An, who came back today, has also grown in size, and there is a more confident look between his eyebrows.

Shi An smiled slyly and said, "It's been a long time, and the child has naturally changed, but the eldest lady, why hasn't it changed at all over the years?" ”

This made the eldest lady laugh.

"Big daddy has changed, but how can he be more energetic than before the child left home?" Shi An continued, "Don't say that you look young when you're in a good mood, Big Daddy should teach me the secret of vitality, lest my Daddy look older than Big Daddy." ”

Shi Shangfei glared with a smile and scolded with a smile: "You stinky boy, you dare to make a joke about your big daddy, don't you?" ”

Shi Yuan didn't care much, but smiled and waved his hand: "Third brother, it's good to be lively, the second brother went out for a walk, it's really different!" ”

"I'll just say that Big Daddy is high-spirited and likes to be lively." Shi An didn't care even more, and suddenly caught a glimpse of Shi Qingqian sitting beside Shi Yuan, and his eyes lit up, "Is this Sister Qi'er?" ”

"Second brother." was named by name, Shi Qingqian had to smile obediently.

She doesn't have much impression of Shi An, so she knows that he only spends in the house on weekdays, so this kind of Shi An is simply a stranger to her.

"It's really a sister!" Shi An exclaimed, "I almost thought that it was the fairy daughter that the Buddha photographed to celebrate her grandmother's birthday." ”

Hearing this, the hall was full of laughter, and Shi Qingqian was also a little embarrassed.

It seems that the 'outside world' is really sharpening, and a Mu He who has changed his face is enough to surprise her, and now there is a second brother.

Shi Qing said in his heart, these two brothers can make people laugh when they say a word, they are really spitting lotus flowers and exquisite, when the third uncle had to ask him to go out to do business, he was still a little distressed, it seems that this Shi An has completely enjoyed the positioning of a businessman.

The Hou Mansion is rare to gather once, and it seems that this birthday banquet is going to be lively.
