After the eldest son's birthday celebration, it was the second son's turn.
Jiang Mingzhe and Zhuang Meixue celebrated the old man's birthday together.
The second wife was wealthy, and she gifted a magnificent, half-person-tall Buddha statue.
Grandpa Jiang is a Buddhist and has a great fondness for Buddha statues.
The eldest son's wife expressed her filial piety through writing, while the second son's wife expressed it through wealth.

As he spoke, Jiang Mingshu gave instructions to the myna bird.
The myna bird first emitted a loud chirping sound, then it began to speak:
May your happiness be as boundless as the Eastern Sea and your longevity as enduring as the Southern Mountain.
