On the 100th day of a baby's life, the baby's hair is usually shaved off. Shen Qingli didn't want to shave Meng Xihe's hair and shave the pretty pink ball's head bald.
She also plans to give her daughter a beautiful little pigtail in the future!
Everyone in the family was quite open-minded and made it clear that the baby's hair could be shaved or not. In the end, they only shaved Meng Lian'an's head and cut a small tuft for Meng Xihe.
Aunt Zhang collected all the fetal hair, saying that she kept it as a souvenir.
Ye Qiu gave two red envelopes of eight yuan and eighty cents each to the barber who was specially invited to his home to shave his child's hair on the 100th day of birth.
The old master happily picked up his tools and left. This family was really generous. Usually, when he shaved children's hair, the red envelopes people gave him were only one or two dollars at most.
As expected, business in wealthy and powerful families is the best! The old master was so happy that he even hummed a little tune.
Near noon, the Shen family also arrived. It was a rare occasion for the two families to meet, and they had no grudges against each other or their children, but they were not very affectionate.
Grandpa Meng, Grandpa Shen and Grandma Shen were chatting with each other. Ye Qiu, Aunt Meng and Lizi all called each other "mother-in-law" and "mother". They were so affectionate!
The brothers Meng Jianjun and Meng Jianshe were also chatting enthusiastically with Shen Ping.
The child was taken away by them, and Shen Qingli and Meng Xiao were free.
Meng Ning and Meng Kexin seemed a little embarrassed sitting next to a group of elders. They would occasionally mention them and agree with an awkward smile.
Oh my god! They both felt like they were neither standing nor sitting... who would understand!
Shen Qingli consciously turned on the camera in the space and quietly recorded this scene.
When I came back to my senses, I heard Ye Qiu say:
"I was saying, it's a blessing for Meng Xiao to marry Qing Li. Otherwise, I would have thought he would be a bachelor for the rest of his life. I didn't expect him to bring me such a good daughter-in-law without saying anything."
Shen Qingli hid her head behind him and chuckled. Meng Xiao's forehead twitched. His mother was really... impolite in her words, and his wife was also very disrespectful.
No one else was invited to the 100-day banquet, only the two families sat together and had a meal.
Before and after the meal, Shen Qingli received a lot of red envelopes. Maybe everyone knew that Meng Xiao was not the boss?
So the red envelopes were all handed directly to Shen Qingli, and no one handed them to Meng Xiao...
After dinner, everyone sat together to drink tea and chat. After just two cups of tea, the Shen family said goodbye. After all, they were both very busy at the factory, and there was nothing to do after dinner.
Meng Xiao drove Shen Qingli to the house given by Ye Qiu. After it was renovated, the two of them never thought of visiting it.
According to Ye Qiu, he has bought everything including toothbrushes and towels, and he plans to take Shen Qingli to introduce himself to the place.
The further the car drove, the more Shen Qingli's heart trembled. Oh my god! This is at the foot of the imperial city! The future prosperous center of the prime location!
It's no exaggeration to say that every inch of land is worth a lot of money! I only heard the approximate location, but it was far less shocking than seeing it with my own eyes.
When Shen Qingli stood at the gate, she couldn't help but look at Meng Xiao who was opening the door: "Is this the second courtyard?"
She thought the house her mother-in-law gave her was in such a good location, and a two-story courtyard was the best. Unexpectedly, Meng Xiao replied, "I remember Mom mentioned it had three stories, but I've never lived here."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pushed open the heavy mahogany door, then walked in holding Shen Qingli's hand. There was a screen wall against the mountain at the entrance, and a moon gate next to it. The two of them walked into the courtyard. The courtyard was very spacious, and there was almost enough space for a car. Several quaint and elegant houses came into view.
"We've just entered the courtyard, right? There are too many empty rooms, the courtyard is too big and empty, and it's an old house with a long history. It would be scary if you lived here."
She shrank closer to Meng Xiao. She didn't dare to live in such a big yard by herself anyway.
Seeing her curious and somewhat frightened look, Meng Xiao wanted to laugh but couldn't help but hugged her tightly.
"Promising."
When Shen Qingli heard him making fun of him, he snorted and didn't argue with him.
The two were too lazy to open the doors one by one, and the first courtyard was not their residence. They passed through another beautifully renovated door, which was the second courtyard.
The second courtyard is obviously much more exquisite, and even the entrance door is a hanging flower door, which is much more exquisite than the moon gate.
The second courtyard not only has a corridor leading to the three main rooms, but also an east wing, a west wing opposite it, and even a small ear room next to the three main rooms.
The two walked along the corridor into the main room, and Meng Xiao told her that the east room was their bedroom.
Shen Qingli took a quick look and saw an extra-large step-out bed and an antique dressing table in the room. It was just as her mother-in-law had said. All the daily necessities, big and small, were fully furnished and the room could be moved in at any time.
The west side has been renovated into a study and tea room, and there is a couch behind the screen for a short rest.
Meng Xiao pointed to the east and west wings outside the door and said, "The east side will be for An An, and the west side will be for He He. They both have three rooms, and the layout looks similar to ours."
"How old are they? You're thinking of letting them live in separate rooms?" Shen Qingli felt that it was not realistic. They were too young now.
"So I'm talking about later! Stupid!" Meng Xiao bent his finger and tapped her forehead lightly. Shen Qingli, not willing to be outdone, immediately tapped back.
"You don't understand romance." After saying that, he walked slowly ahead with his hands behind his back.
"You don't understand. You know it hurts when you hit me!"
Shen Qingli stood there, clutching her forehead and complaining. It wasn't really that painful, she just wanted Meng Xiao to comfort her.
