Chapter 433: Go to my great-grandfather and second-grandfather’s house to congratulate!
When the carriage arrived at my great-grandfather's house, there were already many carriages parked at the door.
When buying a house in Beijing, my great-grandfather's family and my second-grandfather's family spent a long time choosing and bought the house together, so they became neighbors.
They couldn't afford a house in a good location like their third brother's, so they couldn't be neighbors with him. After the two families discussed it, they decided to buy a house together so that they could look after each other.
"We're here, Nian Nian wants to go down!"
As soon as the little girl heard the driver say they had arrived, she immediately started clamoring to get off. She was at the age where she was lively and active and didn't like riding in a carriage.
"Okay, go down, but be slow. Let your dad go down first, and then I'll carry you down, okay?"
Qin Zhizhi discussed this with her daughter, as she was afraid that the little girl would get hurt if she was too anxious.
"Okay, Daddy, get out of here, Nian Nian will be obedient!"
The little girl sat down obediently and urged her father to get off first so that he could carry her down. She told him to behave well in front of her mother, otherwise she would be beaten.
Little Dumpling is very smart. Daddy can't bear to beat her. She dares to make unreasonable demands, but mommy will really beat her to make her behave.
Seeing the little girl sitting there obediently waiting for her father to hold her, Qin Zhizhi praised her, "Nian Nian is so good!"
When the little girl heard her mother praising her, she laughed even more happily.
Qin Zhizhi couldn't help but touch her daughter's head. She was so cute.
Gu Jinghuai got off the carriage first, then reached out and picked up his daughter, holding her with one hand and helping Qin Zhizhi get off the carriage with the other.
Little Dumpling was afraid that his father would make him fall, so he hugged his father's neck tightly with his little hands.
This was the scene Qin Qingyun saw when he helped Ning Ning get off the carriage. His eyes were filled with surprise and approval.
"Brother-in-law, your arm strength is pretty good!" Ning Ning praised casually, but Qin Qingyun was unhappy.
Some people said unconvincedly, "Madam, I can do it for you, my husband!"
"What?" Ning Ning hadn't reacted yet.
"It's nothing, go in quickly." Qin Qingyun felt that the proof was not important for the time being, and his wife would understand it later.
"Zhizhi, you are here."
"Grandpa, we're here to help!"
"Good children, you are all good children. Qingyao and Qingsheng are both in high school today. Your second grandfather and I discussed it and decided to entertain the guests together."
"Grandpa, this is a good idea. We are all family, and it will be convenient for us to entertain guests."
"We think so too. We'll have to trouble you today. We'll also have to trouble Jinghuai, Qingyuan, and Qingyun to help entertain the officials."
My great-grandfather and his family had never dealt with people in official circles, and the two in my family had even less experience.
"Grandpa, just leave it to us."
After hearing what Gu Jinghuai said, the grandfather laughed even more happily.
"Grandfather, leave the ladies to me and the princess, as well as my fourth brother's wife. My second sister-in-law is pregnant, so let her take a break today."
"Hahaha, I'll do as you say. Let's go in quickly."
"Well, today is a day worth celebrating. Don't worry, Grandpa. We are here for you."
Qin Zhizhi and Wang Xinru helped their great-grandfather walk into the yard. Gu Jing held his daughter in his arms, and Qin Qingyuan held his son.
Gu Yunfei walked beside her, and the family of three envied everyone.
Qin Qingyun supported Ning Ning, and Qin Qinglin followed behind them.
There were a lot of people gathered in front of the great grandfather and the second grandfather's house to watch the fun. They didn't expect that such ordinary two families would have two people in high school.
After high school, the relatives who came to visit my home were all either rich or noble, and everyone was amazed at how low-key these two families were.
The arrival of Qin Zhizhi and others was a great help. Many people came to congratulate her today, so Wang Xinru directly asked someone to order food at her own restaurant.
Both families were extremely grateful, and Wang Xinru felt only happiness.
Qin Zhizhi and her group had dinner at the home of her great-grandfather and second grandfather in the evening.
Old Man Qin was really happy for his eldest and second brother's grandsons when he saw how successful they were.
After a discussion, they decided to go to the ancestral hall to worship their ancestors early tomorrow morning.
"Zhizhi, come here for a moment, Grandpa wants to ask you something!"
The great grandfather wanted to discuss the matter of ancestor worship with Qin Zhizhi.
"Grandpa, I'm here!"
Qin Zhizhi heard her grandfather calling her and hurried over.
"Grandpa, come to me. If there's anything you need me to do, just tell me."
Qin Zhizhi thought that her grandfather wanted her help with something and was too embarrassed to say it in front of so many people.
"Zhizhi, can you ask your great-grandfather if it's okay to hold the ancestral worship ceremony tomorrow?"
Qin Zhizhi didn't expect that her great grandfather would come to her for this matter. She smiled and said, "Grandfather, how about waiting until the emperor's palace examination is over before offering sacrifices to the ancestors?"
"Zhizhi, is there anything special about it?" Second Grandpa asked curiously.
"Second Grandfather, after the palace examination, the outcome is basically a foregone conclusion. Qingyao will either be the third or the second place, and Qingsheng won't be too far behind."
Qin Zhizhi answered her second grandfather's questions with a smile.
"Zhizhi's words make sense. In that case, let's wait until after the palace examination before offering sacrifices to our ancestors." The great grandfather immediately decided to listen to Qin Zhizhi.
"By then, the clan leader will surely be here too. I'll write to him today to tell him the good news."
When Second Grandpa came back from the Qin Mansion, he immediately asked Qin Qingyao to write a letter and send it to Qinjia Village, and also wrote a letter to Chen Li'niang.
"That's settled then. Let's go back and continue eating. We brothers must have a few more drinks today because we have a great time."
The smile on Old Man Qin's face hadn't stopped all night, and now he wanted to drag his eldest and second brothers out for a drink.
"Of course you have to drink a few more cups. Don't worry, Grandpa. If you drink too much, your granddaughter will take you back."
Qin Zhizhi saw that they were in a rare good mood and joined in the fun.
"If you drink too much, just stay overnight. It's not like we have no room for you." The grandfather said with a smile.
"Yes, your great grandfather is right. I won't go back if I drink too much."
"Okay, I'll listen to you, Grandpa!"
After Qin Zhizhi sent a few people back to the banquet, she returned to her seat and continued eating.
Wang Xinru asked the restaurant to deliver all the signature dishes today, and they tasted pretty good.
Qin Zhizhi hadn't eaten it for a while and thought it was pretty good, so she couldn't help but eat a few more bites.
Ning Ning liked it even more, her appetite was greatly increased and she ate happily.
"It's delicious, please eat it, second aunt!"
When little Tuanzi ate his favorite dishes, he didn't forget to share them with his second aunt.
"Thank you Nian Nian!"
"Brother, eat!"
Looking at his cousin Qin Yu who was not at the dinner table, Xiaotuanzi still remembered to share with him.
"My little brother is still young and hasn't learned to eat yet. Can you wait until he learns and then eat with Nian Nian?"
Gu Yunfei gently picked up some food for Xiaotuanzi. Seeing her eating so happily, she felt her appetite improved a lot.
"Okay, wait until my brother learns, and then we can eat together!"
"Nian Nian is so good!"
"Mom, eat this!"
"Aunt, I want that!"
“This is delicious!”
…
Little Dumpling's voice sounded both satisfied and excited. Qin Zhizhi smiled helplessly, knowing that her daughter was undoubtedly a foodie.
Everyone enjoyed the dinner very much, and when they left, Gu Nian had already fallen asleep.
Gu Jinghuai carefully carried her onto the carriage, and everyone said goodbye and returned home.
