The relatives of the Lu family thought that they were the ones who were close to Lu Wenqin, and they were his elders. If he wanted to toast, he should toast them first. Seeing Lu Wenqin toast Shen Wan and their table first, they were more or less excited. It's a little uncomfortable.
After Lu Wenqin toasted to Shen Wan's table, he came to Mother Lu's table.
Seeing the almost empty dishes on the table, the couple was obviously startled. They had prepared quite a lot of dishes, and the other tables had about a third of them left! How could this kind of food be empty?
The two people were startled, which immediately made all the relatives at the table blush.
Zhiqiu whispered to the little maid behind him: "There are not enough dishes on this table. Go and ask the kitchen to prepare a few more dishes."
The young maid said directly: "The dishes on other tables are enough, why is this table not enough?"
The little maid's words immediately made everyone present blush even more. Sanya also blushed and lowered her head. Although she didn't do what her grandma and aunt did, she still felt a little embarrassed.
Zhiqiu urged: "Go quickly!"
The little maid went to the kitchen. Lu Wenqin first called everyone on the table with a wine glass, and then said: "Thank you all for coming to my Zizhen's full moon wine. Wen Qin would like to toast all the elders."
The Lu family relatives at the table also picked up their wine glasses and clinked them with Lu Wenqin from afar.
After drinking, the relatives got up to look at the children.
When Mrs. Bai saw the golden lock on the boy's neck, her eyes widened. "Hey, this child is blessed at first glance. He has been wearing the golden lock since he was one month old. He will definitely be rich in the future."
When other people heard that there was a child wearing a gold lock, they all stretched their necks to take a look. The golden collar and the gold lock hanging on it made their eyes red.
Hey, how much silver is such a thick collar and such a big gold lock worth! Wen Qin is really rich, and for such a small girl, I prepared such expensive jewelry for her.
Mother Lu was also very jealous. She had lived for decades, but she had never owned a gold jewelry! So she said sourly: "After all, my little granddaughter was lucky enough to wear gold jewelry when she was born. The silver one is not as miserable as an old woman like me. This is the first time she has seen gold in her decades of life!"
Her words were naturally exaggerated. Although she didn't have gold herself, she had seen gold jewelry worn by others.
Zhiqiu was thoughtful and naturally understood the meaning of Lu's mother's words. When she said that Zizhen had a good life and she said that she had a bad life, didn't she imply that they were unfilial? She dressed a newborn baby in gold and silver. , but never used such a good thing to honor his mother.
Zhiqiu said calmly: "This is a gift from the master."
When everyone heard this, they were filled with sighs and envy. What they admired was Mrs. Song's generosity, and what they envied was that Lu Wenqin and his wife had such a good family.
"By the way, during the Chinese New Year, we sent two pieces of fine silk and satin to our family. Why didn't my mother use them to make clothes?" Zhiqiu looked at her mother-in-law and asked with a smile.
Although Lu Wenqin doesn't have a good relationship with his parents, they still have a lot of pension money that they should give each year, as well as new year's gifts during the holidays.
Everyone looked at Mother Lu. They thought Wen Qin had not brought anything to honor her! It turned out that he had taken it. Two pieces of silk and satin were not cheap! They could also make a lot of clothes. Why were they still wearing cotton? Where are the old clothes? Especially for Sanya, there are patches on these clothes!
Mother Lu said sarcastically: "The material is so good and expensive that I can't bear to use it to make clothes."
The material looked good at first glance. There was no need for farmers like them to wear clothes made of such good material. After receiving the two pieces of silk and satin, they took them to the cloth shop to sell them within two days, and sold them for ten taels. Where is the silver!
Zhiqiu said with a smile: "My husband and I honor you and your father, so there is no need for me to be reluctant to part with you."
Mrs. Bai said with envy: "Sister-in-law, your son and daughter-in-law are really filial."
"Yes!" Others echoed enviously.
"Haha..." Mother Lu smiled coquettishly.
"By the way," Lu Wenqin's aunt looked at Mother Lu and said, "Sister-in-law, Wen Qin's family has given gold locks to their children. What have you prepared for your granddaughter?"
"I..." She didn't prepare anything, so she brought a basket of eggs. Originally she didn't want to bring eggs. But it seemed awkward not to bring something to eat her granddaughter's full moon wine.
Bai said: "In addition to giving the child a silver bracelet, I also have to make some clothes and shoes for the child with my own hands!"
