Before she knew it, it was time to leave work, and Lu Xueqing dragged her tired body back to the massage parlor.
"Wow! Honey, what did you make? It smells so good!"
The aroma of the food instantly washed away Lu Xueqing's fatigue from the day.
"You've looked so tired these past few days, so I made you some old hen soup! Take good care of yourself!" Lin Yu said with a smile as he carried out a bowl of chicken soup.
"Old hen soup?" Lu Xueqing looked speechless. "Isn't that something you drink during postpartum confinement?"
As Lu Xueqing spoke, she opened her small mouth and slurped a sip.
Lin Yu looked expectant. "Is it good?"
Mmm! Delicious!
"Okay! Then I'll make it for you every day during your postpartum period!"
"OK!"
Lu Xueqing nodded repeatedly, but suddenly felt something was wrong. Her pretty face flushed red, and she glared at him fiercely: "You're still in your postpartum period! Dream on!"
"Oh, right!" Lu Xueqing suddenly remembered something and said, "Tian Tian has found a boyfriend and they're getting engaged. My second uncle is hosting a banquet tomorrow night to introduce him to everyone. I heard this young man works in the police station and was just promoted to section chief!"
"Oh!" Lin Yu nodded, then thought for a moment and said, "I have something to do tomorrow night. You take Mom and Xiaoya with you. I'd rather not go!"
Lu Xueqing glanced at him and nodded, "Okay, if you don't want to go, then you don't have to go!"
Lu Xueqing assumed he was just making excuses.
Because she knew that her second uncle was a rather sarcastic person, and because he worked in a public institution, he was somewhat bureaucratic and looked down on everyone. Especially craftsmen like Lin Yu, whom her second uncle considered no different from beggars, and he would always ridicule them every time they met.
Lin Yu didn't want to go, and she could understand that; she didn't want her husband to be embarrassed in that kind of situation.
The next day.
After getting off work, Lu Xueqing didn't go back to the shop. Instead, she went to the school to pick up Lu Xiaoya and then went home to pick up Zhang Ailan. The three of them went directly to their second uncle's banquet.
Lin Yu invited Feng Jiu to the restaurant for a meal.
Feng Jiu was initially very excited, but after eating a piece of chicken, she felt that the taste was a bit strange.
"Young Marshal, isn't this chicken a little stale?"
"Hmm, leftovers from yesterday!" Lin Yu said while picking up some food. His wife wasn't home, and he was too lazy to cook, so he just ate the leftovers.
"What? You're lucky there's food at all, why are you being so picky!" Lin Yu glared at him.
"Ugh, so delicious!" Feng Jiu immediately began to wolf down the food, finishing off all the leftovers.
Lin Yu snorted and asked, "By the way, is everything ready at Xi Shenglou's place?"
Feng Jiu nodded, "I transferred half of the police force to Xisheng Tower, and also sent a regiment there! Young Marshal, isn't it making a mountain out of a molehill to deal with a few petty thugs?"
"What do you know!" Lin Yu slapped him hard on the forehead. "That old man wants me to be the commander-in-chief of the military review. Don't I have to make a big splash and achieve something?"
"Yes, yes, yes! Young Marshal, you're right!"
Feng Jiu nodded quickly, and after thinking about it carefully, she realized that it was indeed the case.
Lu Yongcheng's public statement last time that he was cooperating with the young marshal to rectify military discipline had a significant impact on the military.
If another crackdown on organized crime is launched this time, the young marshal's prestige will be immediately established.
"Young Marshal, you are truly insightful!" Thinking of this, Feng Jiu couldn't help but sigh again.
Lin Yu waved his hand impatiently, "Alright, alright! Hurry up and build it! Once it's done, let's go to Xishenglou!"
Meanwhile, Xi Shenglou.
One of the most famous private restaurants in Fengtian, adjacent to the Fengtian Imperial Palace, with retro and luxurious decor, and an average cost of 3,000 yuan per person.
In a quaint private room on the first floor.
The Lu family members gathered around a large, automatically rotating round table.
Apart from the old lady, almost the entire Lu family was present today.
The eldest uncle, Lu Zhengxun, and the second uncle, Lu Zhengtai, sat at the head of the table, with the others arranged in order.
Zhang Ailan and her two children sat in the seats at the very edge of the doorway.
Second Uncle Lu Zhengtai was a thin old man in his fifties, looking like a monkey, but sitting there, he was even more smug than eldest Uncle, especially today, when his daughter found a good partner, his pride was even stronger.
"Is everyone here?" Lu Zhengtai suddenly asked.
"Let me introduce you to my daughter Tiantian's new boyfriend, Wei Hao. He works in the police station and is now a section chief!"
As Lu Zhengtai spoke, he pushed the wine bottle forward, exhaled smoke rings, and said to the slightly chubby young man next to him, "Little Wei, this is your first time visiting. On my behalf, let's raise a toast to everyone!"
"Okay, Uncle!" Wei Hao immediately stood up and poured wine for the men in turn, while he poured drinks for the women.
At this point, everyone joined in the praise.
"Young Wei has become a section chief at such a young age; he has a bright future ahead of him!"
"I'm flattered that the section chief poured me a drink! I can brag about this now!"
"Oh, not at all!"
Xiao Wei was quite modest in his words, but his expression clearly showed he was pleased.
Meanwhile, Lu Tiantian introduced the Lu family members to Wei Hao one by one.
Finally, we got to introduce Lu Xueqing's family.
Lu Tiantian immediately showed a disdainful expression and casually said, "This is my cousin. She works at the family company, and her husband is blind!"
Wei Hao stared blankly at Lu Xueqing.
After wandering around for a while, he was surprised to find that the Lu family had such a beautiful girl, who was far more beautiful than Lu Tiantian. He couldn't help but take a second look.
"Wei Hao, what are you looking at!" In the short time that Wei Hao was stunned, he spilled the wine. Lu Tiantian, who was next to him, kicked him hard.
