Today's family dinner will be held in the front hall.
She did not use the tables used for banquets in the past, but placed four large round tables in the front hall.
When farmers get together during the New Year, they always sit at the same table, which is lively and full of human touch and fireworks.
On the other hand, the large and small banquets in the capital look luxurious and elegant, but they always feel that they are missing a little bit of flavor.
Chu Yue's face was filled with enthusiasm.
"Everyone, sit down. Our whole family hasn't been together for a long time. We need to celebrate today."
Second Aunt Zhao Guiqin looked at her and said with a smile, "Yueyue is different now that she has become the princess. Her aura is even stronger than before."
"The second aunt is wrong. There is only Chu Yue here today, but there is no princess." Chu Yue looked at her with a smile and said, "Now that the fourth uncle and the fourth aunt have come to the capital, the second aunt will have to go to the south with my aunt. The workshops over there in Ping Town are promising."
Zhao Guiqin hurriedly patted her chest and promised.
"Don't worry Yueyue, the fourth child and the fourth wife have taught me before, I know it well."
"Okay, I'll feel relieved if my second aunt says this."
The group chatted for a while, and when it was almost time for dinner, Lu Xinghe came back.
He was dressed in well-trimmed casual clothes, with a body like a jade tree, broad and straight shoulders, and the charm of an adult man.
When he learned that the Lu family's relatives had arrived, he strode into the front hall and looked at the relatives in the room whom he had not seen for several years, feeling very happy in his heart.
"Grandpa, grandpa, grandma, mother, eldest uncle, second uncle and fourth uncle."
Wang Xuelan's eyes were red.
"I haven't seen you for more than three years. You kid didn't even know how to send a letter home, which made us worry for so long. Now that I see you today, my grandma can finally let go."
Lu Xinghe had a look of guilt on his face.
"My grandson is unfilial."
Lu Tiesheng looked at Wang Xuelan beside him.
"Okay, Xinghe is busy with studies in the capital, so it's normal that he doesn't have time to write letters. After all, he is a good person nowadays, so you should say less."
Wang Xuelan nodded hurriedly.
"Hey, okay."
Chu Yue patted the position next to herself.
"Ms. sir, sit here."
The corners of Lu Xinghe's lips raised slightly, and he walked to sit next to her.
The two of them sat at the same table as Yun Cuihe and grandparents. The old man hadn't seen Lu Xinghe for so long, and now that he finally saw someone, he inevitably talked a lot.
Lu Xinghe was not impatient and answered whatever the old man asked.
If you can say it, say it directly; if you can't say it, just be vague.
For a time, the atmosphere was very harmonious.
"Xinghe, why are you and Yueyue's marriage scheduled until August 15th? We thought you would get married soon after passing the palace examination." asked the second uncle Lu Laicai.
"It was the date that Doctor Zhang looked at. He said it was August 15th, which happened to be Yue Yue's eighteenth birthday. I thought it was a good day, so I agreed." Lu Xinghe replied.
"It turns out that this is the day that Dr. Zhang will visit." Lu Laicai scratched his head in embarrassment, "August 15th is a good day, but there are still two and a half months until August 15th, and we have nowhere to go. I wonder if it will disturb your purity."
Chu Yue said hurriedly, "How could it be? It's rare for the second uncle and the second aunt to come to the capital. They just want to live in the mansion with peace of mind. Just tell the servants where you want to go and they will take you there."
Lu Shoucheng swallowed the food in his mouth, looked at Lu Laicai and Zhao Guiqin and said, "If the second brother and the second sister-in-law are not used to it, you can follow us to Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Beijing in a few days. There are no restrictions here in the capital and you can feel free." A lot."
"I think it works." Lu Laicai looked in the direction of Chu Yue, "Niece-in-law, is your workshop on Zhuangzi?"
"Yes." Chu Yue nodded.
Lu Laicai chuckled and said, "We are idle now. Can we work in your workshop for two months? If there is no shortage of people in the workshop, we can also help with the farm work on the farm."
Chu Yue raised her eyebrows.
"How can this be done? My uncle and aunt are originally here as guests, how can I ask you to work?"
Lu Laicai snarled.
"We are from a farming family, and we are used to working. It is really hard to be idle for so long. I have been idle on the road for more than half a month, which has made me feel uncomfortable."
Wang Xuelan also smiled.
"Your uncles have been hard-working people since they were young. If Yue Yatou has work, arrange for them to work, otherwise let them live in the house and wait for food and drink. I'm afraid they will be uneasy every day."
Chu Yue did not agree immediately, but looked in the direction of Lu Xinghe.
Seeing him nodding, he responded, "Okay, I'll talk to the manager of Zhuangzi later. Second uncle can go if he wants."
As soon as he finished speaking, a maid and a boy came into the front hall carrying trays, and put plate after plate of delicious food on the table.
The Lu family lives a simple life, and even though life has become better in recent years because of Chu Yue, they rarely live like a lavish family.
When you look at the dishes on the table, your mouth will water with greed.
"Everyone, let's eat."
Everyone picked up their chopsticks and ate happily.
Lu Tiesheng was eating the food in front of him when he suddenly thought of something and looked up at Chu Yue.
"Girl, Doctor Zhang isn't here today?"
Chu Yue smiled and said, "Sir, Doctor Zhang lives in Baiyuan Garden now. If you want to see him, I'll have someone take you there after dinner."
Lu Tiesheng nodded hurriedly.
"Okay, I haven't seen that old guy for a long time. It might as well go and have a look."
Wang Xuelan glanced at Lu Tiesheng, then turned to look at Chu Yue, "Your father is so unforgiving on his words, but secretly he doesn't know what he thinks of his old brother."
Lu Tiesheng snorted.
"Fart, he's not a woman, what do I want from him?"
Wang Xuelan raised her eyebrows and reached out to pinch his ears.
"Hey, if it means a woman, do you really think about it?"
Looking at this scene, everyone in the room laughed.
After having lunch happily, Chu Yue asked Hei Mu to personally arrange a carriage to send Lu Tiesheng and Yun Zhengping to Baiyuan Garden.
When they were in Nanping Town before, these two old men got along with Zhang Zheng the most, and they still had some feelings for each other. It would be nice to let them accompany their master.
Chu Yue understood that the master actually liked to be lively.
The second uncle and fourth uncle's family were arranged by Chu Yue to live in the wing.
Nai Nai and grandma were arranged to live in a courtyard, and the four old people were together. They had more topics to talk about on weekdays so that they could take care of each other.
As for Yun Cuihe, Chu Wenzhu, Lu Xingping and Lu Xingan, each has a separate courtyard.
After the uncle's family finished eating, they followed Lu Changlian to his yard in Wai Liu Lane. At this time, Zhuang Huiyun was still busy in Hongyan Pavilion and was not at home. There was only a woman and a maid sweeping the yard. With.
As soon as Tian Chunyan walked in, she looked at the simple yard and grinned.
"If you ask me, it's better to stay at home. It makes people feel comfortable."
