Hu Lingyu liked Yu Yao more and more as she looked at her, and said, "Old man, don't just drink the chicken soup, try this steamed fish with fermented black beans. Yu Yao knew you liked it, so she made it especially for you."
"Then I must try it properly, I can't let Yu girl's good intentions go to waste."
Grandpa Lu was overjoyed and ate half a bowl more rice than usual.
Su Ya also smiled and praised, "Yu Yao's skills are unparalleled. She is no less skilled than the master chefs of state-run restaurants in Guangdong Province. Lu Ze is truly blessed to have married Yu Yao."
As soon as she said that, the people at the table looked at her with some strange expressions.
Su Ya didn't mind, her face was full of smiles.
Yu Yao is different now; she will be Lu Ze's wife in the future. Among the younger generation of the Lu family, Lu Ze is the most promising and will be the next leader of the Lu family.
Things are different now, so she naturally has to be more obsequious.
Hu Lingyu frowned.
She's increasingly looking down on this third daughter-in-law. She used to think she was petty, but now it seems she's not petty at all. She only bothers with you when there's something in it for her.
They're incredibly quick to change course with the wind.
The large table was bustling with activity, and Yu Yao was practically the darling of the group. Everyone adored her and praised her culinary skills.
Even Han Fenglan, who hated her the most, had a smile on her face and dared not say a bad word about her.
On the other hand, the small table was deserted.
Mu Hehe was furious.
She was clearly the biological daughter the Yu family had just found, and she was Sun Meiqin's daughter, but no one cared about her; instead, they fawned over Yu Yao.
She had something on her mind, and she didn't enjoy her food. Lu Yunqi was in a similar situation.
After finishing their meal, the two of them decided to go for a walk without prior arrangement.
Mu Hehe wanted to take advantage of Lu Yunqi's presence to finalize their marriage. Once Lu's family returned, she would have a reason to obtain a letter of introduction from the brigade office and leave with them.
Before leaving, Grandpa Lu gathered everyone in the main room and briefly talked about the wedding, the most important thing being the wedding date.
Logically speaking, the entire month of July is not suitable for getting married, but that's an old custom. Now that we're destroying the Four Olds, these traditions are no longer observed.
Grandpa Lu consulted the old almanac and found that the 17th of this month, which is the third day after the Ghost Festival, is an auspicious day for marriage.
Lu Ze is a soldier, and this time it was a special leave approved by Brigade Commander Wang. It couldn't be delayed for too long, so the two families discussed it and decided to set this day.
Although time was a bit rushed, the Lu family would not let Yu Yao suffer any injustices, even if it meant a proper betrothal gift and banquet.
Upon hearing this, Mu Hehe gave Lu Yunqi a wink.
Lu Yunqi waited until Old Master Lu finished speaking and finished drinking tea before stepping forward and saying:
"Grandpa, Mu Zhiqing and I also plan to get married on this day."
