Chapter 103: Grasping the Weekly
One year old party.
Lu Chaochao was woken up early by Xu and changed into new clothes.
She had two little buns on her head with two little bells hanging on them, and she was wearing a little red skirt.
Like the New Year picture doll under the seat of Guanyin.
"Chaochao is only one year old, so we shouldn't open the ancestral hall. Wait for a few years, and when it's established, we can open the ancestral hall and register his name." Lu Yuanze looked at Xu and said seriously.
Xu's eyes trembled slightly.
All the children of the Lu family are recorded in the family tree when they turn one year old.
"Yeah." Xu didn't care about the family tree at all and nodded in agreement.
"I have invited Lu Jinghuai and his family. The child is quite talented and there is no harm in making friends with him. Our Yanshu is disabled, so it is always good to make friends with more young talents." Lu Yuanze said earnestly, secretly observing Xu's expression.
Xu's expression was indifferent.
"I will obey you, my Lord, but..."
"Lu Jinghuai's family has a very bad reputation. My Lord, you must protect your reputation so as not to be disgraced by outsiders."
Lu Yuanze didn't like what he heard and frowned slightly.
He waved his hand in annoyance: "Got it."
Lu Yuanze personally went to the gate to greet Lu Jinghuai, and even...
And the Jiang family.
Lu Yanshu was sitting in a wheelchair to greet the guests. When he saw the Jiang family members getting off the carriage, his expression was indifferent.
"The marriage of children is determined by heaven. It's Yanshu's bad luck. It has nothing to do with the Jiang family." Lu Yuanze personally greeted everyone into the house, and Lu Yuanxiao was so angry that he clenched his fists.
"Where does he put his elder brother's face?" Lu Yuanxiao's eyes turned red.
Fortunately, fortunately my brother’s legs and feet have been healed.
Otherwise, how uncomfortable would it be?
"Put the overall situation first." The knuckles of Lu Yanshu's hands gripping the wheelchair turned white, showing that he was not at peace.
Lu Jingyao was dazzled by the extravagance of the Marquis' Mansion.
The Marquis's Mansion is so wealthy, but his family lives in such poverty.
How could she be willing?
How to match Lu Chaochao?
Lu Yuanze welcomed Lu Jinghuai and his family into the main hall, where many guests were already seated.
Pei Jiaojiao saw everything in the Marquis' Mansion and almost went red-eyed.
Seeing Xu being complimented by everyone, she became so jealous that she gnashed her teeth.
Lu Jinghuai and his family bowed.
Lu Jinghuai was taken to the outer courtyard by Lu Yuanze, leaving only Lu Jingyao and Pei Jiaojiao.
Pei Jiaojiao said, "This must be Sister Yun, right? Sister Yun is really dignified and generous."
Xu Shiyun's expression was indifferent, and the smile on her face became a little cold.
"Mrs. Pei, please don't make random relatives. I'm from the Xu family, and I'm a legitimate daughter. Don't make random relatives..."
Pei Jiaojiao's face froze, a hint of anger flashed across her eyes, and then she quickly frowned.
His fists were slightly clenched.
Xu, what are you so proud of?
Your man, he loves me!
There were chuckles all around.
How can a concubine be compared with a principal wife?
This Pei Jiaojiao is really shameless. How could she, a concubine, be compared with Xu's principal wife?
Isn't that humiliating to others?
There was a hint of hostility between the old lady's brows: "A guest is a guest, Shi Yun, please don't be so harsh when speaking." She pulled Pei Jiaojiao affectionately to save her face.
“Old lady, if you don’t know, you would think that Madam Pei is your daughter-in-law.”
"Besides, Shi Yun is not wrong. The Xu family does not allow their children to have mistresses. They will be criticized for that." Xu Shi Yun touched her temples, her brows full of nobility and dignity.
"Old woman, you are not allowed to bully my mother!"
"I'll beat you to death, I'll beat you to death!" Lu Jingyao stood in front of his mother, looking like a wolf cub.
He looked at Xu fiercely.
The whole room was in uproar.
"Why is this child so rude?"
"Oh my God, this child doesn't look like a one-year-old baby at all." One lady even stood up in dissatisfaction.
"If the upper beam is crooked, the lower beams will be crooked." Some people even scolded him in public.
Lu Jingyao opened her mouth to say something, but Pei Jiaojiao suddenly covered her mouth.
"Jingyao loves her mother and can't bear to see her mother being in trouble. It's just her filial piety as a child." Pei Jiaojiao held her daughter's hand tightly and hid her behind her back.
He looked like he was in trouble.
The old lady's eyes were red with heartache.
I coughed lightly. I don't know why my throat has been dry and painful these days.
"Okay, today is a happy day, and you are a mother, so don't make things difficult for the child." The old lady glanced at Xu.
He waved to Lu Jingyao and pulled Lu Jingyao to sit beside him intimately.
The auspicious time has not yet arrived.
Countless gifts were sent to the Marquis's Mansion.
"Gifts have arrived from the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion."
"The Minister of Revenue has arrived with a gift."
"The Minister of Revenue has arrived with a gift."
"The princess's gift has arrived."
"The Queen Mother has arrived with a gift..."
A long list of gifts were brought in from outside the door, and Lu Yuanze's expression changed from dull to ecstatic.
Then he raised his head and chest, his face full of pride.
Lu Chaochao is only one year old, so the gift naturally cannot be given to her.
How can she save face?
It was naturally impossible for Xu, a woman who never left the house, to make friends with so many court officials.
These gifts must have been given by his colleagues out of respect for him!
Lu Yuanze was overjoyed and stepped forward to thank them one by one.
What is the Xu family?
The Xu family today is only a second-class family.
It is no longer the same as it was when Master Xu was in office.
Lu Jingyao had already been gasping for breath in jealousy. Obviously, all of this should be hers, all of this should be hers!
The one who is not loved is a mistress.
Her mother and the Marquis were made for each other, but it was Xu who stood in their way!
The one-year-old process is extremely complicated, but since it’s cold, I don’t dare to bother the child.
Just keep it as simple as possible.
Pray to the gods in front of the altar to keep the child safe.
He asked someone to bring a bathtub, and under Lu Chaochao's shameful and angry gaze, he stripped her naked.
Originally, it was the elders in the family, the old ladies, who should bathe the children, symbolizing washing away all illnesses. But Lu Jingyao held the old lady's hand with tears in her eyes, and the old lady refused on the spot.
Xu almost lost face.
Fortunately, the eldest princess was highly respected and she personally held Lu Chaochao and gave her a bath.
Originally, the prince and the emperor wanted to come in person, but they were afraid that Lu Yuanze would notice something, so they had to give up.
[Ahhh, my innocence is gone!] ! 】
[How shameful!] 】Lu Chaochao got into the bathtub with a deathly pale face.
[Isn’t a child’s face a face?] 】
[Close your eyes, quickly!] 】Lu Chaochao sucked in her stomach. Oh no, her stomach couldn’t be hidden anymore.
It's so scary to have so many people watching me taking a bath.
Fortunately, it was just a formality and I was able to put on my clothes quickly.
Lu Chaochao also put cinnabar on the center of his eyebrows, which represents wisdom.
"It's the time to grab the first birthday. Hurry up, hurry up, grab the first birthday."
The eldest princess was eight months pregnant and was about to give birth, so Lu Zhengyue personally carried her to the table.
"It's the week of the first month."
On the table were balls, swords, pens, ink, paper, inkstones, jade, jewelry and gold ingots.
At that time, Lu Jingyao grabbed the book.
It earned enough face for Pei Jiaojiao.
And now...
The eldest princess took out something from her bosom with a smile: "I will also give you something today to make things more fun."
She put a ring.
The ring was ordinary and looked normal, so no one paid much attention to it.
"Chao Chao, go grab something you like."
Everyone laughed and said.
Lu Chaochao staggered with every step and squatted beside the gold ingot in a daze. "No, I have to give the gold to my mother." 】
Xu almost laughed out loud.
I don't like pens, ink, paper and inkstone, it's unlucky.
Playing ball is tiring.
After looking around, he reached out and took the ordinary ring.
Everyone thought it was a pity, what was so good about the ring?
Lu Jingyao smiled, and Pei Jiaojiao also straightened her back with pride.
It was as if Lu Chaochao was being stepped on.
"No ambition at all." The old lady said indifferently.
Suddenly, someone shouted in surprise: "How come this ring looks like it belongs to His Majesty?"
When these words were spoken, everyone was stunned.
The old lady's face turned red instantly.
The princess smiled and replied, "Chao Chao and Your Majesty are destined to be together."
Chaochao, do you mind changing your father? ?
