After three rounds of wine and five kinds of dishes, the family was in a happy mood. Jiang Huashu stood up, and at this moment, the feeling of being in charge of the modern wine market returned.
He looked at everyone and said sincerely, "Thank you, brothers and sisters-in-law. It's all thanks to you for taking care of my parents over the years." As he spoke, he raised his glass and drank it all.
"We are all family, there is no need to thank each other." The eldest brother Jiang Shaoming said with a smile.
"That's right, let's live a good life as a family from now on." The second brother Jiang Shaocheng also agreed.
The third brother, Jiang Shaobing, also echoed: "Ah Si, the four of us brothers will work together in the future to fight for the prosperity of our family."
Jiang Huashu nodded heavily, "Okay, let's work together!"
Today, the old lady was happy. She drank a glass of wine and ate half a bowl of rice, which made the two daughters-in-law of the second and third rooms very happy. You know, on normal days, the old lady just drank some porridge, and she ate it in small mouthfuls. Today, the two daughters-in-law were happy but also worried that the old lady would be full again.
Professor Dong looked at his two sisters-in-law, and looked at the old lady with happy and worried eyes. What a sweet burden.
The adults were chatting and laughing at the table, while the children were playing and fighting nearby. Jiang Huashu looked at his nephews and their children, and his heart was filled with joy.
Before, because of the movement, he was afraid of being labeled as the descendant of capitalists, so he never came back to meet them. Now everything is finally over. He will squeeze out time to stay in Shanghai longer. Anyway, his company is also developing Pudong, so it’s just right that his family can help.
There is also a lot of room for development in the import and export business in Shanghai, and Boss Jiang has a big appetite.
After dinner, everyone went back to their rooms to rest. The second sister-in-law led the family of four to the right room of the third entrance. This room had been Jiang Shao's study for many years.
Looking at the various old-fashioned objects in the house, you can tell that the family is taking good care of the house, just for Ah Si's return.
Second sister-in-law Zhao Min looked at the items in the room tenderly, then turned around and said kindly, "Fourth sister-in-law, you guys should rest first. That's all for today. If there's anything missing, ask the servants to fill it in tomorrow."
Professor Dong thanked her politely. This second sister-in-law is a wonderful person. Of course, those who can have a place in the Jiang family are not ordinary people.
Jiang Huashu returned to his bedroom and slipped into the space with his wife. It was still the most comfortable to rest and sleep in the room in the space.
The next morning, Jiang Huashu and Professor Dong emerged from the space early. In the morning, the third brother's children returned from the Northeast, and Suihe also returned at noon.
After breakfast, the third sister-in-law came to their yard and took Professor Dong to the kitchen to help.
Chinese New Year is all about eating and women are busy with all kinds of things.
We are having a family reunion today.
Professor Dong followed his third sister-in-law to the kitchen. Wow, the Jiang family’s kitchen is so big!
I counted ten stoves, and I could only imagine how prosperous this family was in its heyday. Capitalism was forbidden now, and most of the servants had been dismissed, so only two stoves were used.
Seeing his second sister-in-law directing the servants to prepare ingredients, Professor Dong quickly stepped forward to help.
The second and third wives could tell from the way Professor Dong helped with the housework that he was very skilled in housework.
They heard about Professor Dong's life story from their eldest brother last night. He was originally a child from a good family in Kyoto, but was persecuted by his own biological mother. Alas, he was a miserable person.
The dumplings we made today are filled with meat, and today’s lunch is our real family reunion dinner.
