When the banquet reached its climax, an elder of the family stood up, holding up the wine glass in his hand, cleared his throat, and his loud voice instantly attracted everyone's attention: "Today, we gather here to celebrate this great victory of our family! In this battle, we faced many difficulties and obstacles, but we never retreated. Everyone used their courage, wisdom and strength to protect the dignity and honor of the family. This is a victory that belongs to each and every one of us!" After that, he drank the wine in the glass, and thunderous applause and cheers suddenly rang out from the audience.
Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen also raised their glasses and walked towards the crowd. Tears glistened in Jiang Zhi's eyes. She looked around at these familiar and friendly faces, and said with a slightly trembling voice: "Family members, along the way, we have experienced ups and downs, pain, and setbacks, but we have always been united and never given up. Today's victory is the best reward for all our past efforts. Let us remember this moment, continue to move forward hand in hand, and create an even more glorious future for our family!" After that, she and Shen Qingchen toasted everyone together. Everyone stood up and raised their glasses in response. For a moment, the crisp sound of glasses clinking resounded throughout the hall.
As the banquet continued, a dazzling array of performances unfolded on stage. There were passionate dance performances, with dancers in vibrant, colorful costumes showcasing the energy and passion of life with their agile movements. There were also melodious singing performances, with singers using their beautiful voices to deliver one moving song after another, some passionate, some graceful, immersing the audience in a sea of music. The magic show was truly breathtaking, as the magician's props seemed to come alive, creating all sorts of wondrous sights under his control, leaving the audience dazzled.
In this joyful atmosphere, time slipped by quietly. Late into the night, the guests gradually dispersed, but the joy and pride still permeated every inch of the manor's air. Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen, hand in hand, strolled through the manor's gardens. Moonlight streamed down upon them, casting a silvery glow. The flowers in the garden still bloomed beautifully in the night, emitting bursts of fragrance, as if cheering for their victory.
“Today’s victory makes me more convinced that as long as our family is together, no difficulties can stop us from moving forward.” Jiang Zhi said softly, leaning on Shen Qingchen’s shoulder. Shen Qingchen gently hugged her and responded tenderly: “Yes, the road ahead is still long, and we still have many dreams waiting to be realized, but as long as I have you, the children, and the support of my family, I will be fearless.”
The two stood quietly in the garden, savoring this moment of peace and warmth. They knew that today's victory was only a new starting point, and that the family's future held infinite possibilities waiting for them to explore. And hand in hand, carrying this joy and determination, they would stride towards a brighter tomorrow. Under the moonlight, the fragrance of flowers, and each other's company, their figures gradually melted into the night, seemingly blending into the long history of their family, becoming an eternal legend, waiting for future generations to continue writing.
