Turning to Ruan Qingling, he said, "Many people have brought gifts over, and some have even been sent to my home. What do you think we should do with these gifts?"
Ruan Qingling said, "Mom, let's write down the list of people who gave gifts so we can give them gifts in return later. Also, I've hired a photographer to take a family photo for this full moon celebration."
"In addition, I also asked Ah Zhu to prepare some return gifts for me, so that everyone who comes to the full moon banquet can give me a gift bag."
Lin Yufang hadn't expected Ruan Qingling to go to such lengths, and nodded, saying, "Okay."
The full moon celebration is a very grand festival.
Especially for children from families like the Ruan and Song, the full-moon celebrations are particularly lively.
And then there's Ruan Mushan, who's practically a grandfather figure, willing to spend money.
He paid half the bill for the banquet.
So I'm planning to hire a chef to come to my house and cook.
Lin Yufang placed a plate on the table and said, "Yaya's godfather also made three gold longevity locks for the three children. Yaya didn't have one before, so he added a jade one."
What was delivered were four longevity locks, three of which were made of pure gold.
Ruan Qingling said with some surprise, "Let me take a look."
The three safety locks are all the same size, and there is one safety lock made of jade, which is for Ya Ya.
Ya Ya found it strange and asked, "Why are all my younger sister and brother's safety locks the same, but Ya Ya's isn't?"
Ruan Qingling said, "Because the three of them were born together, they are called triplets, so there must be three gifts. And since you are the older sister and were born earlier than them, we will give you a piece of jade."
"This way you can tell that you are the older sister and they are the younger brothers and sisters."
So that's how it is!
Ya Ya accepted Ruan Qingling's explanation and nodded, saying, "Mommy, can I wear it now?"
Ruan Qingling nodded: "Of course, you can wear it now if you want, just don't fall down, and take this jade with you when you go out tomorrow too."
Ya Ya nodded happily.
Song Shiting was very happy today, even happier than when he got married.
The banquet was held at noon, and many people came, including Song Ling and Song Jie.
Song Jie is going through a divorce, but her in-laws don't want her to divorce. She made a scene at home for a long time without any effect, so she came over here first.
This time, her older brother came back, and she wanted to ask him to help her make a decision.
But it was the baby's one-month celebration, and she couldn't bring it up before everyone had eaten.
However, she recently heard that her mother had been living at the Ruan family's house, which puzzled her.
Song Ling was very resistant because her parents were busy taking care of their three newborn grandchildren and had left her, the giant baby, to the side.
She didn't want to take care of the child, so she didn't come to the Ruan family's house.
Naturally, no one went to the Song family to keep her company.
She became even more resentful of Ruan Qingling: "I don't know what my brother and sister-in-law are thinking. Why don't they go home? The house is so big. If they don't have enough people, we can help out."
Song Jie wasn't quite sure why things were going on, but since her parents were willing to compromise, it meant there must be some other factors at play.
Besides, she didn't think Song Shiting and Qingling were unreasonable people.
She said, "My brother and sister-in-law don't seem like unreasonable people."
Song Ling snorted and said, "You're already speaking up for them? Even at a time like this, you still want to speak up for them?"
Song Jie frowned and said, "I'm not speaking up for anyone, I'm just stating the facts!"
Song Ling: "Have you seen Dad coming here every day lately? They're getting old, and they have to travel such a long distance to take care of three children. If it's really too much, they'll just spend some money to hire someone to take care of the children. Isn't that how every child grows up?"
Song Jie, however, thought triplets were very rare and said, "It's okay. After all, not every family has triplets. It's fine if they're a little special."
Song Ling reached out and tapped Song Jie's forehead, saying, "You're such a fool."
The weather was beautiful today, sunny and bright. To prevent any unpleasant incidents from happening, Song Ji invited the chef to his home.
Several tables were set up in the courtyard.
Two tables were also set up at the entrance.
In fact, they did not advocate extravagance and waste, but the two families of Ruan and Song, along with their relatives and friends, totaled more than five tables.
The food he makes is both simple and presentable.
Braised pork belly, sweet and sour pork ribs, steamed fish, seasonal vegetables, and a variety of snacks and sweets.
Every table was completely filled.
When the three children, dressed in identical clothes and wrapped in the same blankets, were carried out of the house, everyone stood up, wanting to see them.
Song Jie peeked out, wanting to see the three children.
They really do look exactly alike.
Ya Ya is a big sister now, and she has the air of one.
He followed Song Ji.
Song Ji held Song Wenhuan in his arms.
Lin Yufang is holding Song Wenjie.
Ruan Qingling is holding the infant Song Zidong.
The three people stood to one side, receiving blessings from relatives and friends.
Lin Yufang's only consolation is that all three of her children share the surname Song.
When people ask, they all say the child's surname is Song, so she doesn't feel so wronged.
All the effort I put in during this time was worthwhile.
Everyone said the three children were good-looking, which made Lin Yufang even happier.
Now that the child's features have matured, he's actually starting to resemble Song Shiting a bit.
So these three children are indeed her grandchildren.
She used to be so narrow-minded. Now that she has this realization, she is motivated to do everything and doesn't feel as resentful anymore.
The Ruan family was bustling today. Lu Hongming, who was passing by the door, stopped and saw Ruan Qingling wearing a pink shirt and a black long skirt.
She was holding a baby who looked like a beautifully sculpted jade sculpture in her arms.
Song Shiting, dressed in a green business suit, stood handsomely beside Ruan Qingling.
The two of them look good together no matter when they stand together.
Lu Hongming lowered his eyes slightly and passed by the main gate of the Ruan family.
For a while, he thought he could win over Ruan Qingling and was willing to put aside his prejudices and accept the child in Ruan Qingling's belly for her sake.
Unexpectedly, I became the most ridiculous person.
Ruan Qingling doesn't need him at all.
Even after Song Shiting returned, there wasn't a single crack between them.
So, Song Shiting really is someone people are jealous of!
Song Shiting and Ruan Qingling invited their relatives and friends to drink.
At this time, a relative from the Song family asked Song Shiting.
Now that they've returned and acknowledged their roots, they should go back to their own place.
Living at my mother-in-law's house all the time isn't a good idea.
The person who said this was a distant uncle of the Song family, who was quite old, and was also among those invited.
The two families held a joint full-moon celebration, inviting only close relatives and friends; ordinary friends were not invited.
Why would someone suddenly say something like that? Isn't that just asking for trouble?
Just as Ruan Huaizhu was about to speak, she was stopped by Ruan Huaixiu who was standing next to her.
"Today's main character is your second sister. If you have anything to say, let your second sister say it."
Ruan Huaizhu then sat down.
When her gaze fell upon Song Wenhuan, whom Lin Yufang was holding, a smile returned to her eyes…
