Tomorrow, Song Qiu knew the outcome of the matter before Li Yang came back.
She originally sent the housekeeper to deliver a memorial ceremony.
When the housekeeper went there, he happened to meet someone from the Fang family.
Miss Fang did indeed come to the door. When she came to Miss Huang's funeral, she apologized personally. Regardless of whether she meant it or not, she came anyway.
Song Qiu heard the housekeeper talk about this matter, and before the afternoon was out, Huang Yuanwai came to the house in person and told him about it.
Miss Fang was embarrassed and humiliated in every possible way and refused to let Miss Huang go. In fact, to put it bluntly, she was used to being the only one who had everything she wanted and could not tolerate others disobeying her.
At first they were arguing about the jewelry. Miss Huang didn’t know who she was. She was a pampered girl who grew up, and she was not short of money. She liked the jewelry, and she had taken a fancy to it first and had already bought it. Why should she give it to her?
other people?
Later, as soon as Miss Fang revealed her identity, she stopped fighting in time and stopped fighting. She was not ignorant of the heights of the world. She knew that the people did not fight with the officials and that their family could not afford to offend the officials' daughter, so she reluctantly gave up her love.
It was Miss Fang who refused to spare her and hated her for robbing her. She also knew that she was just a merchant's daughter, so she made every possible effort to embarrass and humiliate her.
That's what happened. In the final analysis, it was Miss Fang who was wrong.
It's a pity, who said that Miss Fang is powerful and has a high status?
Miss Huang, who couldn't bear the humiliation, died, but Miss Fang, who bullied her, didn't hurt or hurt her at all, and had no impact at all. She probably would have cursed her a few times, or regretted that she died like this, because she hadn't bullied her enough.
Also, I had no choice but to come to Huang's house, and I couldn't tell how angry and resentful I felt.
Song Qiu estimated that Miss Fang's unforgiving temper might make her and Li Yang resentful.
I have to say that Song Qiu was not wrong in his estimation.
This girl knew that she had nothing to do with Li Yang and could not humiliate Song Qiu, so she turned around and forbade all the girls she knew from buying items from Song Ji's dessert shop or patronizing Song Ji's business.
After Song Qiu heard about it, he just shook his head and smiled and didn't take it to heart.
Even the girls from the official families of Qingping Mansion did not patronize her business and had little influence.
She also has Young Madam Yang as the prefect's daughter-in-law, and with Li Yang's reputation, her dessert shop's business will be the same even without the patronage of those girls.
Boycotting her business and so on, this is really a child's trick, a small fight, no pain at all.
The restaurant is making preparations and waiting for an auspicious day to open.
Before that, Li Yang's birthday arrived first.
Song Qiu had already sent greeting invitations to each government, inviting them to come over and attend the banquet.
On this day, the gate of the fourth house in Tongluo Lane is opened to welcome the guests who come to the banquet.
Song Qiu invited not many people. Except for his colleagues in the guard office and the prefects, they were all officials. This was an indispensable social interaction.
Li Yang was responsible for entertaining the male guests, while Song Qiu entertained the female guests in the flower hall of the inner courtyard.
It's cold, so it's not possible to go to the gardens and enjoy the flowers. The banquets are specially held in the conservatory.
Song Qiu followed Li Yang to attend many people's banquets. The ladies he entertained today all looked familiar. In addition, with Young Madam Yang helping her, everything was safe and sound until the end of the banquet.
Nothing went wrong.
Even though these ladies look down on Song Qiu's background, who is the prince of Changshan behind Li Yang?
In addition, with Young Madam Yang supporting her, Song Qiu herself could not find any faults, so no matter what she thought in her heart, everyone seemed to be in harmony.
After all the guests were sent away and the servants were cleaning up, Song Qiu rubbed his face that was almost frozen from laughter and went back to the main room to lie down on the soft couch, holding Mrs. Tang in his hand, taking a good rest and sitting upright.
I have lower back pain.
Huang Tao brought her a cup of white fungus and lotus seed soup. After she had rested enough, she straightened up and sat on the small table, eating the white fungus soup while listening to Huang Tao talk about the gifts she had received today.
After hearing this, he said: "Let Butler Tu register and make a register, and put the good students into the warehouse by category."
These gifts must be repaid later. This is the exchange of favors.
After such a toss-up, it would be more tiring than if they were holding a banquet in the countryside.
In the future, she would hold less banquets like this. Anyway, it wasn't that she didn't hold them, she just held them less often, so she wasn't afraid of what others would say.
When the time comes, she would still be happy to hold her child's full-moon party and birthday party in Songshan Village.
Thinking of the village, Song Qiu thought that he would go home to celebrate the New Year soon, and he couldn't help but feel relaxed.
After the New Year, when Aling was going out, she would stay at home and let Li Yang take the time off to go home.
After the Qingming Festival and the tomb sweeping, she came to Fucheng again, bringing her two grandmothers with her. Ice was convenient in Fucheng. After the hot summer and the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, they came home again.
From then on, let’s plan to live like this every year.
Time flies by like a fleeting moment.
As soon as Li Yang's birthday passed, she was busy opening the restaurant, and in a blink of an eye, it was the end of the twelfth lunar month.
Li Yang got a leave from someone and was able to take half a month off at a time, go home to celebrate the New Year, and then return to Fucheng after the Lantern Festival.
Song Qiu was overjoyed to be going home. He had already bought a car full of gifts to take back to his family.
After explaining the affairs here, early in the morning on the 22nd day of the twelfth lunar month, the group left the city and headed home.
Yang Dalian took people out twice in August and opened two inns in two places north of Yunshan County. He just came back.
But Xi Mei'er was almost seven months pregnant, so Song Qiu didn't take them back with him this time, and left them both in Fucheng. It happened that Yang Dalian could still help take care of the restaurant and dessert shop.
It was freezing cold and the road was difficult to walk. It was not until the evening of the 29th that Song Qiu and his party finally returned to Songshan Village.
The family had received the letter a long time ago and was eagerly awaiting their return. Now that they were finally waiting for their return, the whole house was filled with joy.
Old Mrs. Deng had been living at home with Mr. Old Yuan. She took Shidan'er with her and did not go to the town. Li Donggua and her mother and daughter Miao closed the shop on the 28th and came back one day ahead of them.
On the afternoon of the 29th, all the workshops stopped working and went on holiday. The wages that were due were paid, and the New Year gifts that were due were paid.
So at this dinner in the evening, everyone arrived in good numbers, except for the married pear blossom, everyone else was there.
Everyone had a lively dinner. Knowing that Song Qiu and the others had a hard time traveling, although they had a lot to say at the moment, they were not in a hurry and asked them to rest first and wait until tomorrow.
But tomorrow is New Year's Eve, so I woke up early in the morning and was busy visiting the graves.
Today's reunion dinner, Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Miao made it themselves, and it felt more like the Chinese New Year. The main thing is that they are getting used to it.
After working for most of the day and having a lively reunion dinner, the whole family had to sit around and talk.
Song Qiu first talked about what happened in Fucheng in the past few months, and then presented the gifts he brought back to everyone one by one.
