Mr. Xiao and the old aristocratic families in Beijing were sitting at the seats very close to the main table. When they saw the Chao family sister and brother walking towards him with their newly recognized sister, their whole faces burst into smiles.
Before the people came near, he turned around and waited happily. When the little ones came over, he shouted with excitement: "Little girl, are you here to drink with me?"
"Grandpa Xiao, please don't mislead my sister. Little Lele is only fourteen and a half years old. She can't drink, okay?" Chao Yubo smiled brightly and took a bag of pills from the plate and handed it to the old man: "Xiao
Grandpa, please don’t eat the gift my sister gave you as a quail egg. The minimum price starts at ten thousand eggs. They are expensive but not available. If you waste it, I can’t help you if you want to ask me for it again."
"Oh, luckily you said it. I was just wondering if it could be used to relieve my hangover." Mr. Xiao snatched the meatballs and put them in his pocket: "Xiao Bo, can you tell me what the special purpose is?"
"Grandpa Xiao, I will explain the purpose to you in detail after the dinner or when I have free time. Now I will take Xiao Lele to give back the gift." The beautiful young man smiled with his eyes on his face, deliberately making people appetizing.
"Okay, let's go, let's go." Mr. Xiao understood. If the little guys don't talk about it, it will be of great use.
Several old men sitting at the same table poked at Mr. Xiao with jealous eyes.
After the beautiful young man nodded to everyone and saluted, he led his pretty sister to Qing Lao's table and gave him gifts in return. Qing Lao took the gift and put it in his arms, winking at everyone without asking for its purpose.
Grandpa Li’s family is quite funny, and Little Le’s classmate also makes cute faces.
The little girl was delicate and pretty, making funny faces and making cute faces, which made the old man very happy.
Zhang Lao, Zhou Lao, Yang Lao and the two old men of the Chao family sat close to each other, and they happened to give the gifts in return. The old men received the gifts with smiles, and kept them well without showing them to others.
Finally, I went to the Zhang family to send gifts. The Zhang family, for several generations, refused to sit in the most honorable seat. In the side seats, the Zhang family is also a family of powerful generals. Miss Chao's husband is an educator and a standard scholar.
Mr. Zhang retired from the Ministry of National Defense. He is a tall man of 1.78 meters. He still has the majesty of a tiger. His face is like steel, and the sharpness of a tiger general's sword can be vaguely seen between his brows and eyes.
Mr. Zhang accepted the return gift from the three brothers and sisters of the Chao family. Mrs. Zhang was also a kind-hearted old man. She was holding her infant great-granddaughter in her arms and had a kind look on her face.
Classmate Le Xiao saw that the child was unwilling to move and refused to move. Chao Yubo and Chao Yufu couldn't resist her, so they asked her to play for a while while they went back to accompany their grandparents.
The young and old of the Zhang family warmly welcomed the little girl and asked her to sit down. Chao Yuming took the baby over and gave it to little sister Fantuanzi to take a look at.
The little great-granddaughter of the Zhang family is almost half a year old. She is pink, sleeping, and blowing bubbles from her mouth. She is so cute.
Holding the soft baby in her arms and looking at the pink ball, Le Yun smiled widely and stretched out her white and tender paws to poke the baby's face. The baby was sleeping and did not protest when being poked in the face.
.
A little girl who has not yet grown up is playing with the baby. The scene is very cute, and the young and old of the Zhang family are all smiles.
After poking the baby's face for a while, Le Yun got down to business, feeling the baby's pulse, looking at the little arms, taking off her shoes and looking at the soles of the feet, looking at the calves, and then looking at the baby's butt, belly and back.
As well as the back of the head, check the whole body.
"Xiaotuanzi, does the baby have any health problems?" Chao Mingfu looked at Xiaotuanzi nervously and examined the baby's body.
"There is something wrong with the gallbladder and liver. The baby's liver lobe has small blisters, and the gallbladder is also likely to develop into cholecystitis." Le Yun held the baby who seemed to be about to wake up in her arms and gently handed it back to the mother.
"Is it serious?" The young and old of the Zhang family were horrified.
"It's not serious at the moment, but it can't be ignored. Try not to feed milk powder. The baby is too young to take medicine directly. I will go back to school and study suitable medicine or recipes for Brother Chao to bring back to Sister Ming to make breast milk healthier and more nutritious.
, indirectly conditioning the baby's body, and then taking targeted medicine next year when the baby is older."
"Little girl, thank you for your hard work." Mrs. Zhang was very grateful. The Zhang family has four sons. Each of the four sons has one or two sons. There are no daughters in the third generation. The eldest grandson of the fourth generation is a girl.
I'm afraid of losing my palm.
"You're welcome. The baby calls me aunt. She's my niece and she's from the same family." Le Yun smiled and moved closer to Sister Ming to watch the baby yawn.
The young and old of the Zhang family know that the little sister of the Chao family brother is a real-hearted person and is not polite.
We are talking here, while the waiters are placing the wine on the other side, and the steward is asking the three masters of the Chao family for instructions on when the food will be served.
Chao Yi was about to say that it was okay when he heard Uncle Hu's loud announcement: "Old man and old lady, Mrs. He of the He family and the children and grandchildren of the He family wish the old man a birthday!"
When the voice came, the whole hall suddenly fell silent.
What has your circle been most concerned about in recent months?
Of course, it was the great event that the ancestor of the He family came back to life.
If you ask people what they care about most?
In addition to power and money, of course it is health, and health is precisely the basis of power and money. Without health, no matter how much power or money you have, it will be short-lived.
The ancestor of the He family stepped into the coffin with one foot, and stepped on the edge of the coffin with the other foot. In the blink of an eye, he was full of life again. It was an absolute reversal, and it was also really related to health problems. It was enough to cause problems among the rich and powerful.
They attach great importance to it.
No matter how hard the people in your circle tried to pry, they couldn't pry the He family's mouth open. No one knew the secret of the He family's ancestor's recovery.
The He family has also become more and more low-key, and has hardly attended any banquets since October. However, the fact that the quiet He family came to congratulate the old man of the Chao family on his birthday, and Mrs. He came to visit in person, is of extraordinary significance.
In an instant, the minds of all the high-ranking officials and those in the trenches made countless twists and turns, and what they thought of was absolutely of far-reaching significance.
Le Yun's mind first had a question mark, and then an exclamation mark. When she heard that the He family was coming, the heartbeats of everyone in the room increased rapidly. Do you think the He family is awesome?
Because Mayor Wang did not allow Wang Yuxuan to wander around with him, Zhao Zongze had always behaved like a gentleman. However, when he heard that the He family came to celebrate his birthday, his face suddenly changed. Why did He come here?
He had a hunch that Yan Xing would most likely come with the He family's old man. When he saw only Liu Shao and no Yan Xing at the Liu family, he thought that Yan Xing would not come. Who knew that Yan Xing would kill him halfway when the dinner was about to begin?
Congratulations to the family.
If the He family recognizes him, will they embarrass him?
Zhao Zongze suddenly lost his confidence, his heart was in a state of confusion, and he was confused.
Young Master Zhao was shocked, and Mrs. Wang's expression was also very unnatural. The Wang family and the He family lived in the same compound. She and her husband went to the He family several times but were dismissed with neither salt nor mildness, and the He family also treated them more and more.
Getting colder and colder.
For her birthday last month, she invited the He family to a banquet. However, the He family only had He Qiying, who was also a cadre of the Standing Committee of the Beijing Municipal Government, to accept the gift due to personal connections and left without even sitting down.
Now, the ancestors of the He family personally led the descendants of the He family to the Chao family to congratulate Mr. Chao on his birthday. A comparison between the two parties shows how polite the He family is to the Chao family and how little they look down on the Wang family.
Mrs. Wang felt uncomfortable because the Chao brothers warned her that there were distinguished guests in the Chao family. When she heard that the He family was coming, she thought about the fact that her own family had given the He family a warm face and a cold butt, and she felt even more uncomfortable.
Wang Yuxuan's back suddenly tightened due to the announcement, the ancestor of the He family is here?!
When Mr. Lan heard the news about the He family coming, he looked up at Mr. Liu and saw that Mr. Liu's face was full of sunshine. He suddenly realized that Mr. Liu should have known that the He family would come to the Chao family, so he smiled unpredictably.
Why did the He family come to the Chao family to celebrate their birthday?
The Guwu family's inquiring around the corner didn't yield any clues. The He family has never shown that they are special to anyone. Today, they suddenly came to the Chao family. Does it mean that the person who treated the ancestor of the He family has a relationship with the Chao family?
The family loves the house as much as the bird, so we went to Chao’s house to celebrate his birthday?
As his mind wandered, Mr. Lan looked at other places and observed that there was nothing particularly strange about the people of the Guwu family who came to the banquet with some families in Beijing as ordinary people, and he tacitly watched the changes.
When Mr. Chao heard Butler Hu's loud voice, he looked at his wife in shock. Mrs. He is here. Is that correct?
There is a person in the He family who has the same ministerial position as Chao San. If that person comes to the Chao family with his wife and children, the old man will not be surprised. However, even Mrs. He comes in person, which is too strange.
Her wife has never been very good at dealing with people. Mrs. Chao was startled at first, then immediately reached out to hold her wife's arm and stood up: "Mrs. He is the senior, let's go to greet her." She then called her children and grandchildren: "Boss, second, third, you guys too.
come together."
"Yes!" The three brothers responded and followed the old man and the old lady with their wives to greet them. Sisters Chao Yubo and Chao Yufu were even faster and followed their grandparents.
When the master of the Chao family came out to greet him, the atmosphere in the hall was stagnant at first, and then the big bosses who were closest to the main table did not dare to make excuses anymore and stood up and left their seats one after another.
Mrs. He Jiahe was a revolutionary veteran who had gone to the battlefield and killed enemies and witnessed blood. She received the August 1st Peace Medal, the highest award for military merit. She was a true hero among women, and the country did not let men down.
Everyone in the Chao family went to greet the guests in person, and everyone at the VIP table stood up to greet them. Others who dared not sit down also stood up and stood beside their seats, all facing outwards.
Outside the door, Uncle Hu was shocked inside.
It was past seven o'clock, even though there were no guests, the waiters were still waiting outside the door before the dinner started, and they would not leave until at least ten minutes after the dinner started.
Uncle Hu stood guard outside the door, thinking that no more guests would come. Unexpectedly, just as the food was about to be served in the hall, he saw a group of people coming in a mighty manner.
When the guests approached, he was shocked to find that it was the He family or the ancestors of the He family who were leading the group. At that time, he almost felt dazzled. He rubbed his eyes and looked several times before confirming that he was right.
He was so surprised that Uncle Hu did not hesitate and immediately reported to the old men in person, so that the old men and the old lady could be mentally prepared. They called inward and trotted to greet everyone in the He family.
Grandpa He took off his down jacket when he arrived at the door of Master Chao on the first floor, and then entered the banquet hall surrounded by his children and grandchildren.
Everyone from the He family filed in, and the people who greeted them could clearly see the He family's camp. The He family's team was very large. Mrs. He was in the front, wearing a dark red cheongsam and a long winter dress. Her hair was tied up and decorated with several jewel-encrusted hair.
Wearing a hairpin and light makeup, she doesn’t look like an old man who is nearly a hundred years old at all, but looks like she is just sixty or seventy years old.
Mrs. He held her head high, raised her chin slightly, walked calmly, and had an elegant demeanor. She was indescribably graceful and noble. Looking at the ladies at the banquet, her nobleness was only matched by Miao Miu and a few others.
If the ladies at the table are the stars, Mrs. He is the bright moon. If the ladies are flowers, Mrs. He is the peony among the flowers. When the King of Flowers appears, all the flowers will be eclipsed.
When Le Yun saw the birthday star of the He family, she was immediately dumbfounded. Oh my god, the birthday girl has such a strong aura! The aura of the birthday girl is so powerful that it can sweep in all directions and overwhelm all the heroes.
Classmate Le Xiao was dumbfounded, and Mr. Li and others were a little stunned. No one expected that Mrs. He, who had not been around for many years, was still full of heroic spirit and her aura had not diminished.
Mrs. He calmed down the scene as soon as she appeared, but she didn't look away. She put her left hand on the arm of the beautiful young man on the left who was supporting her and walked towards the masters calmly and elegantly.
The young man on her left is Yanxing, the grandson of the He family. The young man is wearing a gray ink suit and a red patterned tie. He is as tall and tall as a moving mountain. He has a handsome face, a handsome face, and a flawless jade face.
With an elegant smile and gleaming eyes, she has an unparalleled grace and elegance.
He supported the old man, and his gestures and gestures were natural-born, and his aura and elegance were somewhat similar to those of the old man.
There is also a handsome young man on Mrs. He's right hand, with a slender figure, a face like jade, and eyebrows as sharp as a knife. The handsome young man supports the old man with his left hand and holds a lady's coat on his right hand.
Many people know the young man on the right side of Mrs. He. He is the fourth-generation great-grandson of the He family, He Mingzhi. His demeanor is closest to that of the third generation of the He family.
The ancestor of the He family did not let his sons and daughters-in-law support him, nor did he let his grandchildren and daughters-in-law support him. Instead, he supported his great-grandson and great-grandson. This also shows how much the old man loves his great-grandchildren, and it also indirectly shows that Yan Shaoyanxing
How favored he is in the He family.
Behind Mrs. He are rows of He family members. The first is Lu Xuemei, the widow of the deceased He Zigong of the He family, supported by his eldest son He Qiwen and his wife; followed by He Er, He Zirong, Guo Qingqing and his wife; and third He
He Zirui, Chaixi couple; the fourth is Jin Ali, the widow of He Zihua, the deceased He Wu, who is supported by his eldest son He Qiying and his wife;
Then came He Qishu and his wife, He Qili and his wife, He Qijie and his wife, He Qican and his wife, and finally the great-grandsons of the He family, He Mingsheng, He Mingjun, He Mingtao, He Mingjing, and He Mingxin.
There are twenty-eight people in the He family, old and young, representing Mrs. He's four sons and one daughter. All the grandchildren in each house are here. All the descendants of the He family who can come are here. It also represents that the He family came out to celebrate Mr. Chao.
Longevity, solemnity, formality.
Li Lao, Zhou Lao, Xiao Lao and others saw the He family's formation clearly, their faces remained calm, but their hearts were as shocked as a small earthquake.
Mr. Wu was as shocked as Mr. Li and others. He squinted at Le Qianjin and felt a little angry in his heart. The girl from the Le family was not good at offending anyone, but she had her crooked ideas on the only male figure in the Chao family. Her family suspected that he was in Beijing.
Life in China is so nourishing.
The three gentlemen of the Chao family saw clearly who was coming from the He family, and the smiles on their faces almost broke. What is the He family doing? Such a grand appearance would scare people.
Ancestor He held Xiao Longbao's hand and sounded powerful. He was still far away from his master and arrived before anyone else arrived: "I'm glad to hear that in the year of Chao Lao's Qingzang Kingdom, Xiao Jinsun officially recognized his relatives. It's double happiness. I
The old woman shamelessly brings her children and grandchildren here to enjoy the wine."
"Mrs. He Mrs. Feng's presence has made the little Chao family's house brighter and the whole house filled with light. Mrs. He is so complimentary, which makes the little old man feel honored." Mr. Chao quickly stepped forward to greet Mrs. He and the Chao family.
The old man's contemporaries are a whole generation older than him and are true seniors.
"Welcome Mrs. He and all distinguished guests of the He family to our humble residence." Mrs. Chao and her sons and daughters-in-law extended their most sincere welcome to everyone in the He family.
"We are here too late and have disturbed everyone. Please forgive me." Lu Xuemei, the old lady of He Da, apologized on behalf of the brothers.
"You're welcome." The Chao brothers stood aside humbly, waiting for Mr. He San and others to go ahead.
Mr. Chao welcomed Mrs. He and personally supported the old man. He Xiaoshi made way for his master, and Mrs. Chao followed her husband.
Ancestor He took a look at everyone in the Chao family, stretched out his hand to grab the boy from the Chao family who was standing on one side, and smiled so brightly that his eyes sparkled: "This should be the brother of the Chao family, he is so good-looking, he is so beautiful, and he is so elegant.
My Xiaolongbao is even better than mine."
"You have always been praised. How can a little kid deserve your praise?" Old Mrs. Chao and Mr. Chao smiled with flowers on their faces.
"Mrs. He, you are so flattering. How can I, the light of a grain of rice, dare to compete with the light of the sun and moon of the descendants of the He family? The generations of sages and loyal generals of the He family, and the current elders of the He family are all strong-willed and middle-aged.
Every generation has the spirit of being a father, and every generation of young people inherits the character of their ancestors. The He family has been the pillar of the country from generation to generation, which is beyond the comparison of a child with a yellow mouth like me."
After being praised greatly by the ancestor of the He family, Chao Yubo returned the compliment with a smile on his face.
"!" Yan Xing almost failed. The Chao family's brother is only a little less heart-warming than Bigan. He has always been a powerful person. He is just praising the He family like this. This is to bring hatred to the He family.
He Er He San: "..."
Congratulations to all the Mingzhi brothers: "!" Brother Chao, please don't be evil!
Guests: "!" Even if you don't want to admit it, you have to admit that the Chao family brother is right. There are indeed no people in the He family who rely on the family to make a living, let alone people who are waiting to die. Everyone's achievements are
You have to work hard on your own.
"Hey, I'm just telling you the truth. You've praised all the boys in my family. No wonder people say that the Chao family's brother is more handsome than his peers in the capital, and he's smarter than any other hero of his age. Good brother, don't praise my family either.
Boys, you and my fifteen little ones are all of the same age, so don’t let anyone see you outside."
The beautiful young man praised the whole family, making Grandpa He smile like a flower, with smile lines on his face. He took the second girl of the Chao family, raised his hand, pulled out a peony crested hairpin from his head, and inserted it into the little girl's hair.
, smiled and said: "Brother from the Chao family is very handsome, and the girl from the Chao family is dignified and beautiful. My old man didn't bring anything valuable, so he gave me a hairpin as a greeting gift. Sister, don't be dissatisfied with the mere gift."
The ancestor of the He family talked cordially with the Chao family brothers and sisters, and the guests could understand that when the old man gave the second girl Chao a gift, they were all shocked and dumbfounded.
The ancestors of the He family gave a hairpin as a gift to a girl. Her husband held a high-ranking official position, and the girl also had an honorable status. Now the girl has passed away a few years ago, and the hairpin has been passed down as an antique to future generations.
Being able to receive a hairpin as a gift from the ancestors of the He family means that the girl is pure and pure, chaste, quiet and virtuous, observing etiquette and discipline, and is a model of a noble girl.
envy.
The ladies and daughters present here are full of jealousy.
Old Mrs. Wang could hardly maintain her ladylike demeanor. Her granddaughter was so good to Yan Xing back then, and the ancestors of the He family never gave her any hairpins. But now when she saw Miss Chao Er for the first time, she generously gave her hairpins.
Isn't this a slap in her granddaughter's face?
When this matter spread throughout the aristocratic circles, the dignitaries in the capital dug up the childhood sweethearts relationship between her granddaughter and Yan Xing, and then related that she did not receive a hairpin from the ancestor of the He family, indicating that she was not recognized, so where should her granddaughter put her face?
, where should the Wang family put their faces?
Thinking of the powerful relationship between the actions of the ancestors of the He family, Mrs. Wang felt stabbed in her heart and her face was so embarrassed that even light makeup could not hide it.
Wang Yuxuan was stunned at first, then when she realized that her beauty was pale, she was almost crying. When she and Yan Xing were very good, she could easily meet the ancestors of the He family who were rare in other families. The ancestors of the He family were also kind to her, but they didn't give her a favor.
She has something extraordinary.
It's okay if the ancestor of the He family doesn't give her any gifts. After all, the ancestor of the He family has never given anything to anyone else. Now he just gave Miss Chao Er a hairpin when he met her for the first time. Comparing it, she became a joke. If there is another good thing,
The reporters are distorting the facts and adding jealousy. I am afraid that the powerful people in the capital will think that she is not good and have not caught the attention of the ancestors of the He family. They may even expand it and say that she is a childhood sweetheart with Yan Xing on the surface, but is secretly involved with Yan Xing's stepbrother.
, saying she behaved inappropriately.
Thinking of all the possibilities, Wang Yuxuan felt anxious and her eyes were red.
Not to mention others, Chao Yufu was also a little confused. This was the first time she met the ancestor of the He family. How could Mrs. He give a gift?
Chao's father, Chao's mother, brother and sister-in-law looked at each other with disbelief in their eyes. Mrs. He's whole family came to celebrate her birthday and gave her hairpins. Which song was she singing?
"How can this happen?" Mr. Chao was very embarrassed. Mrs. He's wife only gave a gift to a girl many years ago. That girl later married a good husband, and her husband rose rapidly. It was really the husband who valued his wife, and now Mrs. He's wife
He also gave a meeting gift to the Chao family girl to give the Chao family face.
"There's nothing that can't be done. Brother Chao is a boy and doesn't need anything from his daughter's family. My old lady gave a small gadget to the girl from the Chao family. It's just for the fun of little girl Bo."
Mrs. He was kind and kind. Chao Yufu was a little confused at first, but now he adapted to the sudden change and thanked him with a smile: "I don't dare to say no to Mrs. He for the gift. Yufu thanks Mrs. He for the reward."
"This little girl has the same temperament as my Little Sixteen, lively and outspoken." Grandpa He praised him and looked at the old man of the Chao family: "Mr. Chao, why don't you see the new little golden grandson of the Chao family?"
"Mrs. He, you are talking about my sister. She is playing with my niece at my eldest sister's place. I will go and ask Xiao Lele to come over." Chao Yubo knew why Mrs. He was looking for Xiao Lele and immediately explained the confusion to the old man.
"Wrong, wrong, it's not called. The little doctor is so noble, how dare you bother the master to ask for one." Mrs. He stopped the beautiful young man from the Chao family and ordered the children around her: "Xiao Longbao, Xiao Shiwu, go and ask for the little doctor."
