The people at the table in the east room were my uncle's relatives, and they were also shocked by Zhou Xiang's generosity.

At the same time, he was also shocked by Zhou Xiang's words defending Dong Yunyue.

Zhou Xiang’s meaning was very clear. The things were for her eldest cousin, but she wanted her aunt to take care of them. This was to raise Dong Yunyue’s status.

Uncle Lu Yongan was entertaining his guests. He was unhappy that his daughter-in-law took the initiative to delay the meal for half an hour. However, since his daughter-in-law was always assertive, he protested with silence.

When Zhou Xiang came in, he didn't even stand up to greet him. Even if he was the host, so what? Zhou Xiang was still the junior! And he was late! Why would he, as the elder, greet the junior?

Moreover, Zhou Xiang was even more unhappy when his sister-in-law introduced his aunt, whom he had never met, but did not introduce him to his uncle, whom he had also never met.

Now, Zhou Xiang had acted like this. What should he do? Should he stand up? Should he introduce himself?

Before he could figure out how to step down, his wife Dong Yunyue spoke up, "Yes, they are too young, it's better for me to take care of them."

In the main hall, the guests who were watching Zhou Xiang were also stunned by the gold bar. Didn't Dong Yunyue get along with her sister? Why was Zhou Xiang still making fun of her like this?

Dong Yunyue put the red bag into her pocket, without even looking at her husband's eyes, and found a way out of her own pretense. She took the newlyweds to another table to toast.

Lu Yongan realized that the longer he delayed, the harder it would be to get off the stage, so he quickly stood up and walked over to the table, "Ling Ran."

Ling Ran knew his great uncle very well. He had been oppressed by his aunt all his life because of his grandfather's identity.

After his grandfather passed away, he thought he could turn things around, but his aunt, who was used to being strong, didn't give him any chance. The two of them, who had always lived a peaceful life, quarreled constantly over the past ten years.

The reason why he didn't go to her own wedding was that, according to my aunt, he thought it would be embarrassing for her to get married. They even had a big fight the night before.

In addition, today my aunt postponed the dinner time for herself and her wife, two younger generations, and my uncle became uncomfortable again.

Since my uncle wanted to find a step, I handed one to him. Ling Ran helped his wife stand up.

"Xiang Xiang, this is my uncle. He didn't attend our wedding because of something. Uncle, this is my wife Zhou Xiang."

"Hello, uncle."

Zhou Xiang doesn't care who has problems and who doesn't. Whether it's sincere or not, it has nothing to do with her. She is not close to them. She gives face to her aunt because she thinks her mother-in-law and uncle still care about her aunt as the eldest sister. Moreover, her aunt is indeed very worried about her three sons.

Lu Yongan's face was full of smiles. "Okay, we are honored that you can take the time to come."

"Uncle, you are so polite."

"Sit down and eat. Sit down and eat. The food is still being prepared outside and the hot dishes will be served soon."

Lu Xiahe, the second child of my aunt's family, stood up very attentively and said, "Dad, sit here with me. I'll go and accompany my uncles."

"good."

After his uncle sat down, Ling Ran also pulled his wife to sit down.

Dong Yunrong rolled her eyes secretly. This petty-minded man even asked her son for help. If he still refused to come, she would not introduce him to her daughter-in-law until he left.

He picked up some light dishes for his daughter-in-law and said, "Eat more. Your aunt loves you and ordered a lot of light dishes."

Zhou Xiang nodded, "Yeah! I can see that Auntie is thoughtful."

Lu Yongan was a little embarrassed, as a male elder it was not easy for him to respond.

Ling Quan raised his glass and said, "Brother-in-law, congratulations. From now on, the marriages of the second and third sons will be smooth sailing."

Lu Yongan raised his wine glass and clinked it with his brother-in-law, "Yes, I borrowed your blessing."

Ling Quan nodded, "Everyone is blessed."

The embarrassment was swept away, and Lu Yongan relaxed, clinking glasses with his brother-in-law and brother-in-law.

Half of the people at the table were drinking happily, while the other half were eating seriously.

Qian Jianying was still asking what kind of banquet Sanbao was going to hold, she had never seen Sanbao yet!

Dong Yunrong lowered her voice, "I'll take you to see it later. It's really fun. I was planning to hold a hundred-day celebration, but it's not even the first month of the year yet, and I'm a little reluctant to do it."

Qian Jianying was surprised. "You brought it? Why didn't you come in?"

Dong Yunrong looked around and said, "These people always pinch and knead other people's children when they see them doing well. I can't bear to let them go. If I don't bring them back, their mothers won't be able to get back in a while and will make trouble."

Qian Jianying nodded. Some older people like to pinch other children's faces. Parents can't say it, and it's hard to explain it. "Well, take me to see it later. If we don't do the 100-day wine, it will be a year old. It's not appropriate. Others will think you don't value your grandchildren!"

"Yes! We can only hold a hundred-day banquet."

Qian Jianying even pulled his two sons and said, "You have no good eyesight. Change seats. Don't you see how hard it is for me to talk to your aunt?"

The brothers Dong Wenyou and Dong Wushan, who had already leaned back as far as they could, looked at each other and thought, "Whatever their mother says is right, let's change!"

The aunt and sister-in-law sat together, lowering their heads and whispering and laughing.

Zhou Xiang tried her best to feed herself, as she also had to breastfeed her child.

After toasting with the newlyweds, Dong Yunyue came to the east room. Dong Wenyou and Dong Wushan were afraid that their mother would scold them again, so they quickly stood up and said, "Aunt, you have worked hard. Please sit here!"

Dong Yunyue nodded with a smile, "Aunt, you are so happy despite the hard work! Please sit down and ask your third cousin to give up his seat."

Lu Qiuxi stood up quickly, "Mom, please sit down."

After Dong Yunyue sat down, she raised her wine glass to Zhou Xiang and said, "Xiang Xiang, you can't drink alcohol, so drink some beverages. Auntie will be happy. Let's clink glasses and you can do a facial for Auntie. Auntie knows what's going on."

Ling Ran picked up the drink on the table and filled the small glass in front of his wife.

Zhou Xiang picked it up and said, "Aunt, you're too polite. We are all family."

Dong Yunyue narrowed her eyes in a smile. "Where are our family members?" She raised her head and drank the wine in her glass.

Zhou Xiang drank the drink in the cup and said, "Auntie, please eat something quickly. Drinking on an empty stomach will make you drunk easily."

Dong Wenyou was very attentive in picking up food for his aunt, which made Dong Yunyue feel relieved. These days were really a real life!

The guests of the Lu family were all ordinary people. They didn't know how to act like officials, nor would they try to win over others. They all just looked at Zhou Xiang and felt what it was like to be under the same roof with the benchmark of Huai County today.

Therefore, the door of the east room is where every guest passes by, takes a look or two, and then says goodbye to the host.

Dong Yunyue took a few bites of the food and quickly stood up to see the guest off, while Lu Yongan continued to sit and drink.

Zhou Xiang secretly shook his head. This uncle seemed oppressed on the surface, but he acted like a macho man. It was very hypocritical.

The guests left one after another, and Dong Yunrong pulled her sister-in-law out. Dong Yunsheng followed them as he also wanted to see his three uncle's grandsons.

After seeing off the guests, the dishes were cold and covered with a layer of solidified oil, but Dong Yunyue continued to eat cold rice and cold dishes. Zhou Xiang couldn't help but feel sorry for her.
