Tonight was for Shen Ming's wedding, so the dinner was placed in the main hall. When the meal was almost ready, Song Ziyu came back, and Mrs. Liu was also invited to the main hall.
Song Ziyu greeted her uncle and sat down in a curt manner. Although she remembered this little uncle, but now that she saw him in poor clothes, she really couldn't like this poor uncle in her heart.
"The old lady is here." A servant outside called out. Shen Ming, who was sitting in the hall, quickly stood up and left the table. When Old Madam Liu approached, he raised his hands and made a big bow and said: " Shen Ming has met the old lady."
Ms. Liu looked Shen Ming up and down, twitched her lips and said with a smile: "No need to be polite, I haven't seen you for many years, you have grown into a young man, and you are getting more and more handsome."
She felt a little uncomfortable because, according to Grandma Wang, when this young boy from the Shen family entered the house, he would be the first to see her. It was better for him that he had no etiquette at all and had to wait for her. The elders came to see him.
Shen Ming straightened up, looked at Mrs. Liu and said, "I haven't seen you for many years. The old lady looks younger and tougher than before."
Shen Ming didn't know that Mrs. Liu already had a grudge against him.
Lin Qingxue led several maids serving dishes into the main hall. After the maid arranged the last few dishes, she smiled and said: "The dishes are all here, let's sit down and eat first!"
So, Mrs. Liu took a seat with Lin Qingxue's support.
Song Heng sat on Mrs. Liu's right hand side as usual, next to him was Shen Ming, and then Shen Wan. Lin Qingxue sat on Mrs. Liu's left hand side, and next to her was Song Ziyu.
Song Heng picked up the wine glass and said: "Today's banquet is to welcome Ming'er and wash away the dust. Let's toast him together."
Hearing this, Shen Ming, who did not know how to drink, quickly picked up the tea cup.
Mrs. Liu and Lin Qingxue also picked up their wine glasses, and Shen Wan and a few others picked up their tea cups.
Song Heng looked at Shen Ming and said, "Now that you are here, live in peace of mind. Your sister and I's home is your home."
"Yes." Shen Ming smiled and nodded, but gave Lin Qingxue a sideways glance. This family is not decided by his sister, so how can it be his own?
Mrs. Lin decided to act like the matron of the house, and she wanted to be the head of the house.
Mrs. Liu also said: "Just treat it like your own home, live in peace of mind, and if you need anything, just tell Qing... tell your sister."
She originally wanted to tell Qingxue, but she felt bad about it, so she changed her words in time.
"OK."
Lin Qingxue wanted to say a few words, but when she was about to speak, Song Heng took the lead and drank the wine in the cup. She had no choice but to close her mouth and drink the wine in the cup.
"Okay, let's use the chopsticks!" Mrs. Liu picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of braised carp for Shen Ming.
Shen Ming hurriedly picked up the bowl and took the fish from Mrs. Liu. Mrs. Liu said: "The cook in the house cooks the fish very well. I usually like to eat this fish. You should try it too."
"Thank you, Madam." Shen Ming put the bowl back to its original place and picked up the chopsticks.
"Are your parents okay?" Mrs. Liu looked at Shen Ming again and asked.
