Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Full Moon

On October 17, Shen got up early in the morning, opened the window, changed the sheets and quilt covers, boiled hot water, soaked in a bath, found new clothes to wear, and dressed Ziyu again, Ziqing also dressed Zixi and Zishou in a new dress, "Do you know why my sister dressed you in new clothes?" This is called losing people not losing the battle, although the father and mother have not fought for them, but we must first overwhelm them in momentum, we don't care, we think in our hearts, 'whatever you toss, we just want to live better than you.'" 'Remember?' Ziqing asked Zishou and Zixi.

"Got it, my mother and sister also put on new clothes, and we are better off than them." Zilu replied.

The boy nodded solemnly.

Shen held the child and took everyone to the old house to participate in Zihe's full moon banquet, and Shen also prepared a new dress for Zihe. When I got there, Zeng Ruiqing and Zhou were happily holding their children to welcome guests, Ziqing saw that the eldest father and eldest mother were also wearing new clothes, Zihe naturally needless to say, a new one, and there was also a thin silver collar and silver lock around his neck.

"Yo, look at the second sister-in-law's family, it's really neat, I don't know if you think the second sister-in-law is the master today?" Chunyu said sourly. Ziqing was a little surprised that the aunt's family hadn't left yet, thinking that the eldest father had stopped talking to the aunt's family, where could he stay to eat and drink? It's annoying right away.

Ziqing frowned when she saw Zeng Ruiqing and Zhou, and glanced at the Shen family, at this time, several guests in the house came over, Xia Yu and Qiu Yu accompanied several female relatives of the Zeng family to talk together, and there were many relatives of the Zhou family, Ziqing didn't know each other.

"What the eldest sister said is not right, the eldest brother and sister-in-law have Zihe easily, and they want to make a full moon wine for the child, we are the elders of the child, how can we come to the child to support the field, both to support the field, of course, not to be sloppy, to dress decently is also to pay attention to the child, to give the child a decent. Big brother and sister-in-law, do you think I'm right? Shen finished. Ziqing handed over the gift.

"The second sister-in-law is really good at talking, I see who the little girl looks like?" Qiuyu stepped forward to open the child's package and pushed Chunyu.

Zhou took the gift, Ziqing saw that Zeng Ruiqing's face was a little better, and hurriedly pulled Shen to find a place to sit. Ziqing glanced at Ziping, and sat in the stove room with a reluctant face to light the fire, and it was Ziping's uncle who stir-fried the food, which was the nickname Dog Cub. He is one of the chefs in the village.

Fortunately, the banquet will be held in a while, and the Shen family does not have to bother to deal with it, but it is unlucky. Ziqing's family still arranged to squeeze together with her aunt's family to get together at a table, and the meal was very rich, and it could be seen that the eldest father had also spent money and thought, but unfortunately the things in Ziqing's mouth were very limited, but fortunately, Zishou and Zixi were also very sensible. After eating casually, I put down the dishes and chopsticks.

After the meal, everyone got together and praised today's meal, and praised Zhou's children, and Shen invited the third mother-in-law and the fourth mother-in-law and several concubines of the family to come over tomorrow to eat and drink. Everyone said that the conversation was over.

On the way home, Ziqing asked, "Mother, doesn't Daddy ignore Auntie?" Why are they embarrassed to stay? ”

"Kids. People want face and fame. No matter how much your father has an opinion about your aunt, he can't leave her alone. How could outsiders orchestrate them when they knew? On your father's side, what you know is that your aunt has offended your father, and those who don't know think that there is no one in your father's eyes, and he can't even tolerate his own sister, and on your aunt's side, people still think that she is disobedient, and his eldest brother's child is full moon and ignores it, no matter what kind of situation it spreads, it will be a kind of damage to the reputation of your father and aunt. Shen patiently taught several children.

Early the next morning, Shen Jianshan arrived with the Shen family, in addition to a child's new clothes, the Xu family took out a pair of silver anklets for Ziyu to wear, and the Zhao family took out a pair of small silver bracelets for the child to put on, and Ziyu still had a silver lock sent by He around his neck. Ziyu has grown a little, her eyebrows are delicate, pink and tender, very pleasing, Ziqing thinks it is much better than Zihe.

Shen took two pieces of money and asked Shen Jianshan and Shen Jianshui to buy some food, while Xu and Zhao began to kill chickens and choose vegetables, Shen Wanfu and his family began to wash rice and steam rice, tidy up tables, chairs, dishes and chopsticks, Ziqing took Zishou, Zixi and Shen Wanfu's two-year-old daughter Hongyu to play in the yard, and Shen prepared five tables in the open space outside the house.

When the old man and they came over, Ziqing looked up at the sun, it was about ten o'clock, knowing that the family was going to prepare a banquet, and no one was doing anything, but no one could think of coming over to help earlier, even if they came, they sat in the hall drinking tea and chatting with the guests, Ziqing thought that this family was really not ordinary cold.

Zeng Ruiqing and Zhou didn't come over, Zeng Ruiqing went to work, Zhou said that he was afraid that the child would blow the wind, so he only sent Ziping to send a piece of flower cloth, Xia Yu and Qiu Yu both sent a pair of clothes, and several cousins of the family also sent flower cloth, and also sent clothes, shoes and socks.

Shen took the child out and took a turn, and everyone looked at the child's whole body, silver locks, silver bracelets, and silver anklets, and they all smiled and said: "This child is a blessed one, so many people love her when she is born." The eyebrows and eyes are also good, and they will be a Peugeot in the future, so they can't be wrong. ”

"This person, born from the heart, you see that Yumei is a kind and sensible person, never fights or grabs, and when you look at your face, you are a blessed person, no, you people have the best life in other people, and you can't even be wrong with children." The third mother-in-law said.

"That's right, her children will definitely not be wrong in the future, this little thing is even more blessed, it fell into the rice jar when it came out of his life, you see what he wears, it's all gone."

"I still have to say that the conditions of my grandmother's house are good, and yesterday's Zihe didn't have these good things, and it was definitely not sent by the child's grandparents and grandmothers." I don't know who said this quickly.

Seeing that everyone was stunned, Shen reluctantly responded a few words with the child in his arms, and quickly diverted the conversation.

Ziqing only then knew that the child was full moon or one year old, and the jewelry given by the guest had to be worn, one was to show that he was blessed and loved, and the other was to give the person a long face.

Tian saw that the silver jewelry on Ziyu's body was very dazzling, and he swallowed the words back because of a few concubines in his own family and a few daughters-in-law of the Shen family. Ziqing saw her look at Ziyu, and then at Wumao, feeling distressed, envious, and uneven, with a tangled expression on her face, which made Ziqing secretly happy for a long time.

The meal at the feast was slightly richer than yesterday, and Shen also took a lot of effort, not only to let everyone eat well, but also not to seem too much than yesterday, which made Zeng Ruiqing unhappy, so he had to put some effort into the quality and quantity of the dishes. So I prepared a few serious dishes, such as braised pork, braised chicken, braised fish, etc., but it was cheap and a few Da Mao were addicted.

After the meal, Shen made tea for everyone, and everyone sat down for a while and then went back, and before leaving, Shen did not forget to tell Zeng Ruiyu to find someone to help collect potatoes. The old man and the Tian family also went out with them.

After the Xu family and the Zhao family cleaned up, everyone sat in the courtyard to rest, and Shen Jianshan suddenly said that there was a major matter to discuss with the Shen family. (To be continued)
