Chapter 52 Full Moon Banquet 2

The captain's wife sighed and said to the secretary's wife,

"Guiying, don't you have a niece from your mother's side who is not married? You said your sister-in-law is looking for a partner, but your niece doesn't like any of them. Why don't you ask Su He if her elder brother has a partner?"

The secretary's wife's heart skipped a beat when she heard this. If her niece could marry the eldest son of the Su family, she would really live a good life in the future.

But she refused, saying, "That's impossible. We have no relatives or friends with him, and we are suddenly introducing him to someone."

The captain's wife exclaimed, "Why is this not possible? It's not possible if they have relatives or friends. It's best for us to talk about it since we have no relatives or friends. You go and ask first. If they have a partner, we won't mention it later. If they don't have a partner, just tell them."

"Didn't you say your niece is pretty and well-educated? She's only graduated from junior high school. Most girls are not as good as your niece!"

The secretary's wife also thought in her heart that her niece was indeed pretty, with big eyes and fair skin, and she was well educated. She had finished junior high school. It was good for a village girl to finish the first or second grade, and very few could finish junior high school like her niece.

Because of this, her niece has reached the marriageable age but has not married. She looks down on the young men in the village and wants to marry someone from the city.

But people in the city all look for wives with jobs. Although her niece went to junior high school, she did not graduate and did not have a job.

However, if she is lucky enough to be with Brother Su He, then she won't have to work in the future and can just receive the allowance from her man.

"Then I'll go ask." The secretary's wife smiled embarrassedly.

The captain's wife waved her hands and said, "Go ask. There's nothing wrong with asking."

The secretary's wife went over, but came back after just one or two minutes. She said listlessly, "Su He said her eldest brother has a date."

The captain's wife said, "That's a shame."

The secretary's wife said, "Come to think of it, Su He's elder brother is already 26 years old and he's such an outstanding person. The female comrades in the army must have been eyeing him for a long time."

The captain's wife asked, "So, Su He's eldest brother's wife is also in the army?"

The secretary's wife nodded. "Almost. Su He said it was a doctor from the military hospital."

Upon hearing this, the captain's wife was speechless. She thought to herself that even if he was single, he probably wouldn't look for a girl from their village. He would definitely look for someone who was similar to herself.

So we found a doctor. The doctor is quite remarkable. She is probably a college graduate like Su He's third brother.

Su Yue's looks and his military status made him a hot commodity in the eyes of these elders. Not only did the secretary's wife and the captain's wife like him, but Gu Jianhua's aunt also liked him. She had no nieces from her mother's side, but she had several daughters of her own.

She didn't ask in a roundabout way like the secretary's wife did. She asked Gu's mother directly. Gu's mother was shocked and said hurriedly, "The eldest is pregnant, the third is pregnant too, they are all pregnant."

"The second one got married."

My aunt was so disappointed, "I already have them all!"

Mother Gu: "Yes, we are getting ready to get married!"

God, what is her sister-in-law doing... How can she have the nerve to introduce her own daughter to others? All the young men in the village... He thought about her niece and Brother Su He, it was like a flower stuck in cow dung.

Yes, Brother Su He is a flower!

It was also the first time that Wu Sanfeng met Brother Su He. He was tall and handsome, and his aura made her feel excited.

Therefore, she couldn't help but say something to Su Yue. She smiled and said, "Brother Xiaohe, have some tea."

Su Yue nodded politely, "Okay, auntie."

Wu Sanfeng....she is just five or six years older than him.

Father Su and mother Su didn't delay long in eating fried rice yogurt. After drinking some tea to warm themselves up, they stood up and said to mother Gu, "Let's go over there and let the two babies sleep in the cradle."

The two treasures woke up and were playing with Su He.

When Su's father and mother saw him, they said, "Hey, let grandma and grandpa hug you."

Su Che was beside him, "Mom, I want a hug too."

Su's mother refused to give it to him, "You don't know how to hold the baby, don't drop the baby."

Su Che, "I'll just hug you for a bit."

Mother Gu stood by and said, "Let your uncle hold the child for a while."

Su's mother gave the child to Su Che, and her elder sister Chang Yi held the child. Su Che said, "Mom, she is so small."

"It's only one month old, how big can it be?" said Su's mother.

Su Yue was watching from the side, and then he looked at Su's father. Su's father raised his eyes and said, "Why, you want to hug too?"

Su Yue thought about it for a second and nodded. Gu's mother smiled and said, "Let the uncle hug the child too."

Su Yue held his younger brother Chang'an in his arms, his body seemed to be frozen and motionless, and his flexibility was not as good as that of the third brother Su Che.

The two of them held the child, and Su Che said, "Second brother and second sister-in-law, you can also hold the child and get used to it in advance."

Su Xiao and Pei Chuwei hugged the two babies. Their reactions were similar to Su Yue and Su Che. They were all novices and nervous, and they were afraid that the small babies would fall.

Sister Gu smiled and said, "It will be easier to hold the child when he is older. He is too small now."

Sleeping cradle ritual.

First, put a mattress filled with buckwheat shells in the cradle, then attach red baby straps to both sides of the cradle, and finally place a blanket on the mattress to wrap the baby.

This is not the end yet. Hang a mirror on the red cloth with the head of the cradle facing upwards, and hang copper coins on both sides of the mirror. That’s it.

The two babies sleep in a cradle, one of which was borrowed from Sister Gu's house and the other was their own.

It is best if the cradle has been slept in by older sisters or brothers.

As for the straps that tied the copper coin mirror, they were all prepared by Su's mother.

Now that this is done, let the baby sleep in the cradle.

Father Gu took it and heated up fine soil and poured it on top. Then he put the two babies on it, wrapped them up layer by layer, tied them up, and pushed the cradle.

The cradle-entering ceremony is complete.

Afterwards, Su's father and mother, Gu's father and mother, Gu Jianhua's uncle and aunt, Gu's second uncle and Gu's second aunt, these elders said a few auspicious words, all hoping that the children would grow up healthily and have a bright future.

Su He also blessed her two children in her heart.

She will protect them.

Then we started to eat.

Gu's mother was still the chef, while Gu's second sister and her husband were outside entertaining guests. Su He discovered that among Gu's mother's four children, Gu's second sister was the more outgoing, talkative and not shy.

Sister Gu and Sister Gu almost did it.

As for Gu Jianhua, his personality is the same as her elder brother, introverted.

The book says that this kind of personality is introverted, and the colder the surface, the more passionate the heart. Su He also discovered that her son Jianhua is of this type, the introverted type.

Everyone was very satisfied with the meal today at the Gu family's restaurant. It was all meat and vegetables, and it was really a great investment.

So the dishes on the table were almost all eaten up, except for the table of Su's father and mother, where there was some left, and there was not much left on the other tables.

Especially at the table where the second branch of the Gu family sat, not a drop of the braised pork elbow soup was left, and the chicken soup and mutton soup were also gone.

After eating, everyone chatted for a while and then went back.

Father and mother Su were also preparing to leave. Su Yue said to Su He, "Little sister, if you have anything to say, write to me."

Su Yue is leaving the day after tomorrow, and he won't be back for a while.

"I know, brother, you are married to my sister-in-law. If you can't come back, please write to us and I will send you something."

(There are several cradle pictures in the author's words).
