One is to register the son, and the other is to hold a full-month banquet.

These days, it is not easy to get your second child registered as a resident. You may even be subject to administrative detention.

Fortunately, last year Shen Mingzhu made an exception and recruited Wang Feng's sister into the food factory, and formed a good relationship with Wang Feng.

With the help of Wang Feng, Du Juan only paid a fine of 700 yuan and successfully obtained a household registration for her son.

After Qin Jinlian returned to the village from Rongcheng, she started to arrange a full-month banquet for her eldest grandson and was busy every day.

He bought wine, meat, vegetables and eggs, and notified every household, wishing he could invite everyone in the village to his home for a feast.

In a blink of an eye, it was the day of the full moon banquet, and a total of twelve tables were set up.

This is the first time such a scene has happened in Shenjiagou.

Generally, people invite relatives and friends to have a meal, and it is very impressive to have four or five tables.

Over the years, Qin Jinlian was often laughed at behind the back by villagers because she had no grandson, and she felt very frustrated.

Now that she has a grandson, the Shen family's lineage has been passed on, and she must be proud of it.

Although Du Juan is not an ostentatious person, she and Qin Jinlian have similar ideas about holding a grand full-month banquet.

In a place like Shenjiagou, a daughter-in-law who hasn't given birth to a son can't even stand up straight.

She endured so much anger and suffered so much injustice for this.

This grand full-month banquet was for the child, but also to save her own life.

The grand full-moon banquet was talked about by the whole village, and also made Jia Yuemei, the sister-in-law, envious and jealous, and she was ready to make a move.

That night, she discussed with Shen Xiangnan about having a second child.

"I've inquired about it. My sister-in-law paid a fine of 700 yuan this time. We can afford it. We will give birth to a son this time."

As a man, Shen Xiangnan naturally wanted a son.

But my family was extremely poor before and we were afraid of the high fines for having more children than allowed.

But now it’s different. He can earn back the 700 yuan in just a few months.

"born!"

They did it right away. The couple covered themselves with the quilt and started making a baby.

…

After the full moon banquet, Du Juan and Shen Mingzhu finished their work reports and discussed the branch's plans and goals for this year, and then prepared to take the child back to Chengdu.

Before leaving, Du Juan took her child back to the countryside to say goodbye to her grandparents.

The next day, Du Juan was supposed to return to the city at noon because of the 5pm train, but by 2pm she was nowhere to be seen.

Du Juan is not a person who has no sense of time, so she must have been tripped by something.

…

When Qin Jinlian learned that Du Juan was going to take her grandson back to Chengdu, she refused to agree no matter what.

Qin Jinlian didn't want Du Juan to leave, but she didn't want Du Juan to take Shen Zilong away.

Shen Zilong is the full name of Du Juan's son, chosen by Shen Chaobei, implying the hope that his son will become a successful person.

Qin Jinlian said to Du Juan, "Chaobei followed you to go out to make money, and my old man and I haven't seen him for a year or two. If you leave Zilong in the village, we two old people will have something to think about."

Shen Jianguo rarely stood on his wife's side and wanted to raise his grandson by his side.

I have lived for nearly sixty years and I only have this one grandson. It is so rare.

As a mother, how could Du Juan bear to leave her son behind?

"Dad, Mom, I will definitely take Zilong away. If you feel lonely with your children, you can help Yuemei take care of the child. Chaobei and I will come back to see you often when we are free."

"That's easy for you to say. A round trip takes four or five days, and the fare is not cheap. Leave Zilong here, and we will help you raise him. You and Chaobei can earn money with peace of mind."

Du Juan flatly refused and tried to leave with the child.

Jia Yuemei was gloating and fanning the flames, "Sister-in-law, just listen to mom. Filial piety comes first. Letting Zilong stay with mom and dad is like fulfilling your filial piety for you and your elder brother."

Du Juan ignored Jia Yuemei and turned to Shen Jianguo for help.

"Dad, Zilong is still young, he can't leave me."

Shen Jianguo showed hesitation and embarrassment on his face, "Then why don't you just stay and let the men make money, and you can stay at home and concentrate on taking care of the kids."

Jia Yuemei immediately agreed, "That's right, sister-in-law. Look at the wives in our village. Which one of them doesn't stay at home to wash clothes, cook, take care of children, and serve their parents-in-law. You and your elder brother have been away from home for the past two years. Xiangnan and I have been taking care of the family. Now it's your turn."

Qin Jinlian made the final decision, "Yes, old man, either you keep Zilong here, or you don't leave either."

Du Juan suppressed her anger and discussed with the two elders, "Dad, Mom, Chaobei and I really haven't taken care of our family and you in the past year. How about this, Chaobei and I will give you 30 yuan every month from now on as our filial piety."

"I don't want money, I just want a grandson, give me Zilong!"

As he said this, he was about to rush forward to snatch the person away.

Du Juan wanted to hide backwards with the child in her arms, but Jia Yuemei blocked her way.

Qin Jinlian took the opportunity to hug the child, and Du Juan naturally refused to let go.

Shen Zilong, who was sleeping, was awakened by the quarrel between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and burst into tears in fear.

Just when the quarrel was getting out of hand, there was a loud bang and the door was kicked open from the outside.

Shen Mingzhu looked coldly at the three people, the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law, who were making a scene. "What are you doing?"

Qin Jinlian asked uncomfortably, "Why are you back?"

Shen Mingzhu ignored him and walked straight to Du Juan, took over the crying Shen Zilong, and patted him to comfort him.

"Sister-in-law, have you brought all your things?"

Du Juan patted the canvas bag behind her and nodded, "I've brought them all."

"Then let's go."

After saying that, Shen Mingzhu hugged Shen Zilong and was about to walk out.

However, after walking only two steps, Qin Jinlian reached out to stop him, "No, Zilong has to stay at home."

Shen Mingzhu coaxed the child in her arms and said without raising her eyebrows: "Mom, think about it carefully. If you dare to stop Zilong today, you will lose not only a grandson, but also a son and a daughter."

Qin Jinlian was shocked by her words and tears started to fall from her eyes.

Shen Jianguo pushed Qin Jinlian aside and said to the two of them, "You guys go."

"Zilong——"

Seeing her grandson being carried out of the door by Shen Mingzhu, Qin Jinlian slapped her thigh and sat on the ground, crying loudly.

"My precious grandson, wuwuwu, why is my life so miserable..."

…

After leaving the village, sitting in the car driven by Shen Mingzhu, Du Juan hugged her son and told Shen Mingzhu everything that had happened at home while crying.

"…Luckily you came, otherwise my mother and I might not be able to go out today."

Shen Mingzhu patted the other person's shoulder comfortingly. "If I don't come today, I will come tomorrow. I'll help you carry your luggage. There is still an hour and a half left, so you should be able to catch the train."

Du Juan wiped away her tears and said, "Thank you for your help, Mingzhu."

"Why are you being so formal with me? You are not only my sister-in-law, but also my employee. I should protect you both for public and private reasons."

Du Juan nodded gratefully and said nothing more.

"Sister-in-law, if you see a suitable house in Rongcheng, buy it."

Hearing Shen Mingzhu's words, Du Juan was a little stunned. (End of this chapter)
