When they arrived at the front hall, they found that everyone had arrived quite early. Rong Qing and Song Wei asked Murong Shu and Yue Yue to come over and give a formal introduction to the ladies and young ladies, and there was endless praise.
Ever since Murong Shu entered the banquet hall, he had always felt that someone was looking at him. While his mother, second aunt and the ladies were introducing Yueyue, he looked in that direction and his eyes met Cheng Zhi's.
Cheng Zhi always wanted to go up and talk to her, but there were too many people here, and she was afraid that Murong Shu would leave again soon, so she had never taken her eyes off her since Murong Shu came in.
Murong Shu gave Cheng Zhi a friendly smile, then quietly stepped out, came to Cheng Zhi and said enthusiastically, "Miss Cheng, Xin'er said you wanted to see me."
Cheng Zhi was dumbfounded. She hadn't thought of her opening words yet, and said with a little stammer, "I came to the General's Mansion today to congratulate Lord Mu and Madam Mu on the birth of their daughter, and to meet Miss Mu."
Murong Shu returned a salute to Cheng Zhi and said, "Thank you for coming here, Miss Cheng. This is not the place to talk. After the banquet is over, Miss Cheng, please leave a little later. Can we talk in detail later?"
Cheng Zhi didn't expect Murong Shu to be so easy to talk to, have a good temper, and be extremely beautiful. Even the adopted daughter of the second branch of the Mu family was first-rate in appearance.
"Thank you, Miss Mu." Cheng Zhi also knew that this was not the place to talk, so he bowed to Murong Shu. Just as he was about to return to his seat, he was pulled away by Ning Xin.
Originally, the various families thought it was just a simple recognition ceremony, but they didn't expect it to be so grand. Everyone had to re-examine the importance of this adopted daughter.
Because Yueyue had lost her memory before, Taoist Qingshan named her Yueyue, and did not know her last name. After the Mu family adopted her as their adopted daughter, they let her take the Mu family surname, just like Murong Shu, and called her Murong Yue.
Yueyue is older than Mu Siyu, so she is the sixth young lady in the Mu family, directly replacing the sixth young master and becoming the sixth young lady. The original sixth young master became the seventh young master.
Therefore, Mu Sijin even joked with his youngest brother, "Sixth brother has become smaller again this time!"
Mu Siyu said helplessly, "Can't mom recognize a younger sister? She was the youngest before, and she is still the youngest now."
Mu Siyu's words made everyone laugh. Everyone knew that he actually liked Yueyue very much. He would go to Guiningyuan whenever he had time every day. Yueyue was not only good at kung fu, but also good at making some small gadgets. She also doted on her younger brother. Basically, as long as Mu Siyu described it, Yueyue would make it for him.
Mu Siyu wanted to have more sisters like this since his mother had the money to support them.
The Rong family was all present today, and the gifts they brought made everyone present sigh, "He is worthy of being the richest man in Beijing."
When the auspicious time arrives, the recognition ceremony officially begins.
Yueyue offered tea to the elders one by one, and also changed her tone to Mousse and Rongqing, "Dad, Mom, please accept Yueyue's greetings."
"Hey, my dear daughter, get up quickly. The ground is cold." Mousse was very happy to hear Yueyue calling him daddy. He quickly helped Yueyue get up. The baby look on her face made others feel embarrassed.
Mousse prepared a big red envelope in advance and handed it to Yueyue, saying, "My dear daughter, this is given to you by your father. It contains banknotes. Go to the street and buy whatever you like."
"Thank you, Daddy!" The little girl happily took the banknote.
"This is my mother's."
"This is my aunt's."
"This belongs to my uncle."
“This is from my grandmother.”
"This belongs to my eldest brother and his wife."
........
When the mousse started, everyone gave Yueyue the red envelopes they had prepared in advance. Yueyue was dumbfounded. How could there be so much?
Seeing the little girl in a daze, Murong Shu took them all for her and said with a smile, "Hurry up and take them. These are all for changing your name. From now on, we are a family."
The little girl nodded happily when she heard her senior sister say that they were a family, and then whispered to Murong Shu, "Senior sister, I seem to have forgotten to prepare money for my seventh brother to change his name."
Murong Shu smiled and said, "Seventh brother doesn't like these. Make him some more toys later. I guarantee he will be happier than giving him this."
"Yes, Yueyue will listen to senior sister." When the little girl heard that she could make her seventh brother happy, she decided to do it when she got home tonight.
After the recognition ceremony, there is a banquet.
When Yueyue was at Tianmen Mountain, everyone did not pursue the desire for food. When the plates of exquisite and delicious dishes were served on the table, Yueyue's eyes were wide open. "Senior sister, these dishes are so beautiful, can they really be eaten?"
When the others heard this, they thought Yueyue had had a hard life in the past and their eyes were filled with pity. Only Murong Shu knew that Yueyue just loved food.
Patting the little girl's hand, she said, "Don't worry, Yueyue, eat. I'll take you to a restaurant outside when we're free."
"Yes, Sister Yueyue, if you like, let's go to the best restaurant in Beijing tomorrow." Jun Mingyue really felt sorry for the little girl at this moment. If her fiancé's sister wanted to eat some delicious food, she had to make arrangements.
"Yes, yes, we will all go with you." Ning Xin and Song Yanran also nodded.
"I'll ask mother later. If she agrees, we'll go out tomorrow." Yueyue was very happy when she heard that they could go out to eat delicious food tomorrow.
"Go if you want to. Second Aunt doesn't want to restrain you." Murong Shu touched the little girl's head lovingly. Yueyue was so cute. Sometimes she really didn't want Yueyue to think about the past, for fear that she would not be happy now.
While they were eating, they decided on tomorrow's itinerary.
At the men's banquet, Mousse was holding a glass of wine and toasting everyone, his good mood all over his face. Anyone could see that he really liked this adopted daughter.
Wen Ye complained to Wen Jing and Wen Zhi in a low voice, "Look, Mu Er is so cocky, as if he is the one who gave birth to him. It must be that Miss Yueyue recognized him for Shu'er's sake."
"Second brother, are you jealous?" Wen Zhi asked with a smile while holding a wine glass.
Wen Ye got furious when he heard this and said angrily, "I'm jealous of him? What does he have to be jealous of? Look at him, he's smiling like a fool."
"Second brother, if dad sees you making such a fuss, you'll get scolded again." Wen Jing reminded with a smile.
"Dad is far away!" Wen Ye immediately stopped talking and even looked up at his father's table. He was relieved when he found that his father was not looking at him at all.
Wen Ye secretly swore in his heart that he and his wife must have a daughter, and carry her with him to work every day and let her hang out in front of Mousse every day.
After the banquet, Murong Shu asked the maid to take Cheng Zhi to Guiningyuan to wait for him, and then go back after seeing off the last guest.
Cheng Zhi knew that Murong Shu was busy today, so she followed the maid to Guiningyuan, and kept her head down, thinking about how to talk to Murong Shu without being rude. It was too late when she bumped into someone and wanted to stop.
Seeing that she was about to fall, the man quickly reached out and grabbed her waist to catch her steadily. After she stood firm, he quickly let go of her hand, bowed to her and apologized, "This is an emergency. I am sorry for offending you just now. I hope you will forgive me, young lady."
