The meal was prepared decently, and a lively atmosphere naturally arose.
After Lu Miao ran forward, she carefully thought about what dishes to prepare.
With what I have on hand, what dishes can I make that are worth it?
Chen Guifen is looking for and preparing for the serious procedures, such as things to use for children to catch the week, guests coming to the door, and red eggs as gifts in return.
Fu Jingyou is even more so.
He took a break half a month in advance and started preparations a few days before the birthday of his eldest son and his second son.
Peanuts and nuts for the guests have been prepared, meat, vegetables and fish have been sold, and the stick bones that Lu Miao needs to make soup have been obtained.
He cares most about the sense of ceremony.
Someone else bought a box of firecrackers for the Chinese New Year and had to cut them into several sections, so he bought more than 20 boxes.
In the past, my status was special and could not be publicized.
Now that he is proud and proud, his wife and children are on the hot bed, how can this man, who is particularly careless in certain aspects, want to be in glory?
Not many relatives and friends were invited, just a dozen or twenty people.
He Hongjin and Chen Guifen held their first and second treasures in their arms, while Lu Miao was busy cooking with Tian Guihua in the kitchen.
Fu Jingyou lit a stick of incense and stood at the door. When someone came into the room, he exploded a box of firecrackers.
Dahe Village has not been this lively for a long time.
The adults were too embarrassed to come over to join in the fun, so they let the children come over to visit.
On the big day, Fu Jingyou was extraordinarily kind, rarely keeping a straight face in front of outsiders. He smiled happily and started teasing the children with melon seeds and peanuts for them to eat.
The children in the village were also sweet-talking, saying "Little Sixth Uncle" and "Sister is so pretty", praising Fu Jingyou with joy.
Family and friends divided two tables.
Fu Jingyou was entertaining guests in front, and Lu Miao stood at the door of the kitchen and took a look.
The crowd has almost arrived, but there are still two little guys missing.
The eldest brother and sister-in-law of He's parents' room haven't come yet...
The front pot in the kitchen is cooking, and the back pot is filled with spices to braise pork and pig ears.
The pot-bellied soup pot on the stove nearby was still bubbling, and the two soft-shelled turtles stewed in it were almost ready.
Lu Miao stood behind the kitchen and watched for a while, then walked back to help Tian Guihua.
I originally thought that if I wait a little longer, Brother He and Sister He will almost arrive.
As a result, the main room was noisy. Chen Guifen started looking for a bamboo sieve to load things and go through the process for Dabao and Erbao to catch Zhou.
Lu Miao looked at something wrong and muttered:
"My eldest brother and sister-in-law haven't arrived yet. Is it because we can't make room, or because we didn't notify them in place?"
Tian Osmanthus paused for a moment while filling the bowl with soup. The next moment, she used chopsticks and a spoon at the same time to fish out the turtle skirt from the pot-bellied soup pot and put it on the plate with its head and feet.
If Tian Guihua just said a few words casually, Lu Miao wouldn't be suspicious.
She suddenly fell silent, and Lu Miaofan turned to look at her.
At this glance, Tian Guihua's expression was not very natural.
Lu Miao frowned and asked in a muffled voice:
"Second sister-in-law, I wasn't awake at that time. Did something happen at home?"
Tian Guihua swallowed and pursed her lips.
Avoiding Lu Miao's gaze, she put a bowl of turtle soup on the stove, then took out a sea bowl and continued to make soup:
"It's okay, don't you look at the house? Are you okay? "What happened?"
Tian Guihua's little move of avoiding her eyes is enough to explain everything.
Lu Miao hates the feeling of having something known to everyone around her but kept hidden from her.
"If you don't tell me, I'll go out and ask Fu Jingyou!"
Lu Miao lowered her brows, and her delicate and pretty face tensed up.
When he said this, he took steps to go to the front room.
The front room is full of guests now, how can Tian Guihua really let her go?
What happened before was not a good thing.
There are so many outsiders here. Not to mention that the old He family will be embarrassed again, and the two children's first birthday gifts have to be organized!
"You are the mother of two children, why are you still so stubborn?"
Tian Guihua couldn't do anything to her, so she pulled her back.
"I'll just tell you...it's not a big deal." Tian Guihua sighed and told the truth about what happened that year.
She didn't mean to tell lies, it was mainly because she was afraid that Lu Miao would have a bad temper and run out to be angry with others on this great day.
Tian Guihua said it quite tactfully, but Lu Miao is not stupid.
You can infer one or two things from her nervous attitude.
“What did she use to beat Brother You?!”
Tian Guihua was quiet for a long time, not daring to say anything.
She refused to say anything, and Lu Miao stopped forcing her. He turned around, staggered, sat on the stove and started crying.
Lu Miao felt extremely bitter.
She didn't have much consciousness at that time, and she lay down for almost a year.
How much physical and mental pressure was Fu Jingyou feeling at that time? How painful are you feeling?
No matter how much Zhao Lanxiang had a problem with them, she shouldn't have said such words to hurt that man's heart!
She also started beating people...
She had just woken up at that time, and Fu Jingyou had many white hairs on her head that were like standing steel needles.
She had touched his white hair when she pulled it out.
What a big scar...
She even asked about it at the time.
Fu Jingyou bluffed her, saying that she knocked on it when she was a child.
Not at all!
Lu Miao paused slightly and cried harder.
The translucent tears rolled down one after another, just like beads on a string.
Tian Guihua sighed slightly, feeling that people in the city were different, even crying was beautiful.
But he couldn't help but move closer to coax her:
"Okay... my sister-in-law did something wrong, but today is a happy day, you shouldn't cry."
Lu Miao didn't want to cry, but her heart felt astringent and painful, and she couldn't control her emotions.
But she also knows the business.
Brother He and Sister He have been ruled out and will be irrelevant from now on.
It is wrong to delay your own family affairs for these unimportant people.
Lu Miao wiped away her tears and said harshly:
"If you don't come, you won't come! Our family doesn't care about having any contact with them anymore!"
Tian Guihua sighed slightly.
The Fu family and Brother He have long since broken off contact.
Perhaps he was afraid of being embarrassed when he came back. This year, Brother He and his wife did not come back during Qingming Festival and Dragon Boat Festival.
The severance of diplomatic relations was a certainty, but now that Lu Miao said it frankly and frankly, Tian Guihua still felt a little inexplicably melancholy.
The surname He is a family.
If something happens, even if the bones are broken but the tendons are still attached, it will be my family members who will help.
Lu Miao is right.
Tian Guihua's idea is also correct.
It’s just a matter of stance.
One more thing, Tian Guihua ignored one thing.
Everyone named He is from the same family, but Fu Jingyou’s surname is Fu.
In other words, if it was Brother He and Brother He who had a conflict last year.
No matter how dissatisfied Zhao Lanxiang was, would she dare to say such heart-wrenching words to Brother He and his wife?
Zhao Lanxiang didn’t dare.
People are mutual.
The He family was kind to Fu Jingyou, and Fu Jingyou kept it in his heart. He showed filial piety and help to the He family all year round.
Keren is also selfish.
Zhao Lanxiang cannot see Fu Jingyou's busy work and Fu Jingyou's filial piety, and even if he sees it, he will treat it as invisible.
