Chapter 153 A Different Reunion Dinner
Accompanied by the sound of "crackling..." firecrackers exploded.
The steaming hot delicacies were also served on the table.
Mr. and Mrs. Lu were also surrounded by the younger generations and taken to the main seat.
The two brothers Lu Yaozong and Lu Yaozu sat down beside Grandpa Lu in turn, followed by his son-in-law Bai Xuheng and his daughter Lu Manxue.
Sitting next to Old Lady Lu was Lu Yujing, followed by the eldest daughter-in-law Qin Mengjie, the second daughter-in-law Liu Qiyu, and then the younger generation.
Just by looking at their seats, one can tell the big and small kings of the Lu family apart.
Lu Yujing unscrewed a bottle of wine and filled the glasses for the elders one by one.
Before he could raise his glass to toast, Mrs. Lu handed the bowl of soup to him, "Jingjing, drink some soup first, don't hurt your stomach."
The Lu family has long been accustomed to this.
Ever since Lu Yujing was born, Mrs. Lu could no longer see anyone else in her eyes.
Even Mr. Lu, with whom he had worked together for most of his life, had to stand aside.
Mr. Lu frowned, "He's not a three-year-old child..."
Mrs. Lu gave him a cold look, and Mr. Lu immediately shut up.
Seeing this, Lu Yaozong hurriedly picked up his glass and said, "Come on, let's raise our glasses together! Let's toast to our parents first. I wish them good health and a happy mood..."
"Hold your great-grandson soon." Lu Xingning added.
"My Ningning is the best at speaking." Old Mrs. Lu praised with a smile on her face.
Compared to empty words like good health, a happy mood, and a long life, the old lady still prefers something practical.
"Come on, let's raise our glasses together and wish that our Lu family will have a new baby soon, and that the old man and the old lady will have great-grandchildren soon." Lu Yaozu also stood up and raised his glass to join in the cheering.
The Lu family members all stood up.
"I wish our Lu family will have a new baby soon, and that the old man and old lady will have great-grandchildren soon."
"I wish our Lu family will have a new baby soon, and that the old man and old lady will have great-grandchildren soon."
…
"cheers!"
The Lu family was filled with laughter and harmony, but the reunion dinner on the other side was not so harmonious.
In the candy factory family compound
Because of what Mao Chunqiao had done, the gossips in the courtyard had new topics to talk about.
When Jian Dashan came back from shopping in the flower street and heard about this, he was so angry that his blood vessels almost burst.
On New Year's Eve, such a grown man is missing.
If his son-in-law and his family hadn't been here, Jian Dashan would have definitely slapped Mao Chunqiao a few times.
He is not capable of accomplishing anything, but is more likely to cause trouble.
"I just want Zhongkang to help Xiaoyue. If Xiaoyue becomes successful, they can also benefit from it." Mao Chunqiao defended in a low voice.
"Mom, I've already told you that Yiwei and Liqiu got through it on their own." Jian Zhongkang frowned, his eyes filled with annoyance.
If he really had that kind of connection, would Yiwei have been there for several years and still just a small fry?
"How would I know..." Mao Chunqiao lowered her head and muttered softly.
"Dad, brother, mom is just concerned about Xiaoyue, so don't be angry." Jian Zhonglan advised.
Jian Zhongkang glanced at Jian Zhonglan and said nothing.
He is honest, not stupid.
Ever since his sister came back, there has not been a single day of peace in their family.
It's either because of this noise or because of that noise.
If Jian Zhongkang could see it, how could Jian Dashan not see it?
But the son-in-law was sitting next to him, and in the end he could only suppress the anger surging in his chest.
"Grandpa, please try this. This is the red bean cake I bought for you at Qiaomianzhai. It is soft and sticky and delicious." He Xiaoyue smiled and took out a bag of pastries wrapped in oil paper from the cloth bag.
As she spoke, she had already untied the red string tied to the cake and held the cake, which was as big as a ping-pong ball, in front of the old man.
The trouble was caused by Jian Zhonglan, so Jian Dashan naturally would not vent his anger on his granddaughter.
He smiled, picked up a piece, and took a bite.
"Is it delicious?" He Xiaoyue looked at Jian Dashan with sparkling eyes, her admiration evident in her words.
"It's delicious." Jian Dashan nodded with a smile.
"Grandma, you try it too." He Xiaoyue brought it to Mao Chunqiao again.
"My Xiaoyue is still the filial one." Mao Chunqiao became energetic again.
Unlike that dead girl, she would rather give it to outsiders than give them any.
Mao Chunqiao became furious when she thought of those good things.
"Yi Yi, it's time to eat." Seeing the food on the table, Jian Zhongliang shouted towards the small house.
"I know!" Jian Qingyi just put down his pen.
She threw the things back into the island and checked again to make sure nothing was missing before she opened the door and went out.
"Day after day, the elders are busy in the kitchen, but she just sits there with her mouth open waiting for food." Mao Chunqiao snorted coldly.
"I eat at my own home. If you don't like it, go back to your home. No one is stopping you." Jian Qingyi doesn't tolerate her.
Jian Qingyi seriously suspected that the original owner had dug up Mao Chunqiao's ancestral grave in his previous life, otherwise he would not have such a big feud.
"This is my son's home, why should I leave?" Mao Chunqiao stiffened his neck.
"You also know that this is your son's home?" Jian Qingyi raised the corner of his mouth sarcastically.
"You dead girl..." Mao Chunqiao covered her chest, looking like she was about to suffocate.
"Aunt, your mother is in trouble. Why don't you send her to the hospital right away?" Jian Qingyi crossed her arms across her chest, making it clear that she wasn't buying it.
Jian Qingyi was a little curious about who Mao Chunqiao learned this from.
The appearance is quite similar to what he learned.
That complexion, that lip color...
Tsk tsk!
I don't know how to put some flour on it.
"You are the one who is in trouble! You dead girl, you are a bastard, you have a rotten heart, lungs and intestines..." Mao Chunqiao immediately responded with full energy.
"Hey! You're not pretending anymore? Didn't you pretend well just now? Have you heard the story of the boy who cried wolf? I advise you not to scare people with this kind of thing in the future, or you might really get into trouble because of it." Jian Qingyi sneered.
"You silly girl, what nonsense are you talking about? A beast like you who disrespects elders will get your retribution sooner or later..." Mao Chunqiao was furious.
Mao Chunqiao didn't know what the story of the boy who cried wolf meant, but she knew that Jian Qingyi's broken mouth could not say anything good.
"The biggest retribution in my life is to be your granddaughter. You call me a beast. I am a beast, and what are you? An old beast?" Jian Qingyi was not afraid of anyone when it came to cursing.
"You, you beast, why don't you just die..." Mao Chunqiao was really short of breath at this moment.
"Mom..." Jian Zhongliang couldn't bear to listen any longer.
Today is my little girl's birthday, and as a grandmother, not only did she not give her a red envelope, she even cursed her...
"Jian Zhongliang, didn't you hear that dead girl calling me an old beast?" Mao Chunqiao almost jumped up.
"Weren't you the one who called her a beast first?" Jian Zhongliang sighed.
"Granddaughters are all beasts, how can grandmothers still be human?" He finally didn't say this.
Mao Chunqiao choked.
"Why don't we eat first?" Wang Xiujuan came out to smooth things over.
"Yes! Let's eat first, let's eat first..." Jian Zhongkang also echoed.
