Two days later, the Yun family held a banquet. Although Shen Wan was given an invitation, Shen Wan did not go. She just asked Xiao Yi to send the wrapped inkstone.
The Yun family was extremely lively today. From the master to the servants, the smiles and pride on their faces could not be hidden.
Various relatives who originally looked down on Yun Luochuan started to praise him when they saw him.
What kind of literary and musical star has come down to earth! He is both talented and beautiful! He is so talented! He uses all the nice words to praise him.
Xiaoyi was led to Yun Luochuan by the servant of the Yun family.
"Mr. Yun, is this a gift from my wife to you?"
Xiaoyi held the inkstone with both hands and said.
"Aren't your wife and Zian here?"
Yun Luochuan saw no one behind him, so he frowned and asked.
Xiao Yi replied truthfully: "My wife is not feeling well today and cannot come in person, so I sent Xiao Yi to deliver the congratulatory gift."
"Yeah?"
Yun Luochuan took over the inkstone.
"Yes."
Xiaoyi said, "The gift has been sent to me, so I will go back first."
After saying that, he bowed his hands to Yun Luochuan.
Seeing him nodding, he turned around and followed the boy out.
Yun Luochuan could feel that what he was holding was an inkstone. He returned to his yard, walked into his study, and unwrapped the flower paper.
It is a high-quality Duan inkstone, carved with exquisite bluegrass and exuding a faint fragrance of ink.
Yun Luochuan liked this gift very much. He removed the inkstone on the desk and placed the new inkstone on the desk.
He originally wanted to grind and write a poem with the ink from the new inkstone, but someone came and asked him to go to the front, saying that so and so was coming again.
So he returned to the front to entertain the guests. When the banquet was about to begin, Mrs. Yun saw that Shen Wan and her son did not come, so she did not ask any questions.
After the banquet, I heard from Yun Luochuan that she was not feeling well today and therefore did not come, but someone sent him an excellent Duan Inkstone.
After hearing this, Yun Changfeng said: "This Duan inkstone made by Master Lin costs hundreds of taels of silver at least! It is not easy for a woman to raise a child, so why do you give her such an expensive gift?"
A few hundred taels of silver is nothing to the Yun family?
But for Shen Wan, a widow with a son, it was still expensive.
Wu said: "Perhaps she is afraid that this gift is too light and will be looked down upon by our family.
However, fortunately she was not feeling well today and did not come. If she came, it would not be good to attract people to gossip."
Although there is nothing wrong with the Shen family and Luo Chuan, there have been such unpleasant rumors.
If she comes and is seen by the guests, she will gossip.
Hearing this, Yun Luochuan frowned. His mother's words made him feel a little uncomfortable.
Wu continued: "Actually, she doesn't have to pretend to be fat. It's not like we don't know what's going on in their family. We'll treat her the same if she doesn't give her enough gifts."
Although Mrs. Shen may have some money, she now has nothing in Jiangzhou City, can't do business, and still has to raise a son. Isn't this just sitting on her hands and feet?
Naturally, you have to save some money.
Mrs. Yun nodded and said, "That's the truth. I'll tell her if my family is in contact, if it's a gift, you don't have to pick something expensive to give. It will be done as long as it comes to your mind."
Yun Luochuan shook his head in his heart, Shen Wan would never pretend to be fat, she had a lot of money.
