Although it was not a big deal, only in-laws and good friends were invited. It can be calculated that at least twenty-four tables have to be opened. This number exceeded Ning Hai's expectations.
Knowing this, Ning Hai said unhappily, "Didn't it say that there should be no more than 20 tables?" His son's doing so was completely contrary to Yin Fengyang.
Ning Zhan smiled and said, "Father, it's not the son, and he didn't control the number of people." It was also his father who was too low-key. The 70th birthday was a big event, and Yu Shi had nothing to say. There is only one seventy in life.
In the previous two years, the Qiu clan held its 90th birthday, but the Korean government opened 60 tables.
Xiao said unhappily: "My son is busy with your birthday. If you don't think about his hard work, you are still picking up faults. You old man, the harder and harder it is to serve."
Ning Hai was very upset about being demolished by his wife: "Huh, I can't even say a word about him now?"
Ning Zhan remembered that Qiyou said that the old man had to coax, and said with a smile: "Mother, this time the son is not doing things well. Mother blames it, and it should be." Anyway, he won't lose a piece of meat.
Xiao cried with a smile: "You just get used to him!"
Ning Hai’s cheeks swelled up: "Can you speak?" What does it mean to be used to him? He is not a child.
In the afternoon, Zeng Chenfu showed the prepared menu to the old couple.
There are no delicacies of mountains and seas on the menu, they are just ordinary dishes. Ning Hai saw it and was very satisfied. But a birthday banquet does not need to be too high-profile.
Putting down the menu, Ning Hai asked, "Ah Zhuang's matter, is there still nothing to do with it?"
Zeng Chenfu said: "Father, A Zhuang is now observing filial piety, so it's not easy to say kiss blatantly." Although Ning Hai said that as long as the girl has a good character and a good temper, he must find someone who can treat him in the future. Helping wife. However, all the ladies in the capital know about Dafang, and the strong brother is not particularly outrageous. It is not so easy to find someone who meets their requirements.
Ning Hai said, "Chenfu, you and Zhan'er are more concerned about A Zhuang."
"Father, don't worry, I will pay attention to Ah Zhuang." If you don't care, you will have to wait for now if you are already optimistic.
Ning Hai thought for a while and said, "Chenfu, I hope I can see A Zhuang marrying a daughter-in-law before closing my eyes."
Zeng Chenfu was shocked, and said hurriedly: "Father, you will definitely live a long life."
Ning Hai said: "Don't live that long, you will suffer too much. It is already a profit to live to this age. I am not worried about you and A Zhan among the brothers and sisters of Yuanhang. The only thing I can't worry about right now is Ah. Strong."
Zeng Chenfu said: "Father, don't worry, I will definitely help him look good before Zhuang brother is out of filial piety." First, I made the old man happy, and there was nothing he could do before he was selected.
Ning Hai nodded slightly.
On the birthday banquet, the two brothers Qiyou and Qixuan came over to congratulate him on his birthday in person. Qi Rui, Zaozao and others who were not in Beijing also let the younger generation in the family come.
Seeing Qixuan, Ning Hai said, "Axuan, my uncle is 70 years old this year, and I will be alive in a few days. Axuan, can you paint a self-portrait for my uncle?" He also wanted to use his mighty power. The heroic posture is left for future generations to admire, not this old-fashioned look.
Qi Xuan did not refuse, but said, "Uncle, I still have two paintings on hand that I haven't finished. I will paint for you when I finish painting these two paintings."
"No problem, no problem." Allowing Qi Xuan to agree is also a convenience in identity. If not, how can I get a painting! He knew that many people wanted to ask Qixuan for painting, but he refused.
As he was talking, he heard the butler hurriedly rushing over and replied: "Hoye, the Supreme Emperor and Empress Dowager are here." Since their abdication, Yun Qing and Yuxi have rarely appeared in front of everyone. The last time she showed up was on the 90th birthday of Mrs. Han's wife.
Ning Hai listened and hurriedly went out to welcome others.
Qi Xuan was surprised, and asked Qiyou: "My parents are coming to celebrate my uncle's birthday, do you know this?"
Qiyou said softly: "If I know, I will come with my parents." My parents are also true, it is necessary to keep this kind of matter secret!
When Ning Hai saw the two of them, he knelt on the ground to salute, and Yuxi hurriedly stepped forward to help him up: "Uncle, today, regardless of the monarchs and ministers, I will tell the family affairs."
Yuxi personally helped Ning Hai into the house.
Ning Hai did not want to be the first, Yuxi smiled and said, "You are an elder, and today you are the old birthday star. You should be the first."
No, Ning Hai could only sit down.
After everyone sat down, Qiyou jokingly said: "Father, mother, uncle's 70th birthday, are you not ready to come to congratulate you empty-handed?"
Ning Hai hurriedly said: "What kind of gift you want, I am very happy when people come." He hosted this birthday banquet originally for a family reunion, but it wasn't the reason for the gift.
Qiyou smiled and said, "Uncle, my mother has some rare treasures. No, you are at a loss."
Yun Qing glared at him, and said, "Everyone is protecting his family. It's okay for you to turn your elbow out." If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, he would definitely teach this bastard.
Qiyou was not afraid, and said, "Uncle is not an outsider." Except for the grandmother Qiu, Ning Hai is the only elder between them.
Ning Hai smiled and said, "Uncle loves to hear this. Ayou, if you say you are a family, then it would be too far-fetched to say gifts."
Qiyou knew Yuxi's temperament and said with a smile: "Mother, don't hide and pinch it anymore, quickly show us the gift you prepared." Yuxi gave it to Qiu's 90th birthday. The Qiu family has a goat fat jade Guanyin and a pair of double-sided embroidered embroidery. The embroidery is embroidered with nine longevity characters on the front and back.
Of course, this embroidery is not made by Yuxi. Needlework hurts eyes, and she wouldn't allow it even if she wanted to embroider Yunqing.
Yuxi glanced at Qiyou, smiled and asked the entourage to take out the gift he had prepared.
Seeing it was a scroll, Qiyou stepped forward to take the scroll and said, "I'll open it."
Qi Xuan also stepped forward to help.
After spreading out, it was discovered that it was a piece of writing. However, few people in the house knew the word dragon and phoenix dancing.
Yuxi bowed to Ning Hai and said, "Yuxi wishes uncle good luck in the East China Sea and longevity than Nanshan."
Ning Hai laughed from ear to ear, "Okay, okay, okay. This gift is very much in my heart." He is really not rare about gold, silver and jewellery. On the contrary, it is Yuxi's calligraphy, which is very rare.
Yuxi's cursive writing is excellent, this is something that the government and the public know. But the number of people who can get her calligraphy can't be counted in one slap. This shows how precious this thing is.
After a short conversation, it was time to start.
After the meal, Yun Qing and Yuxi went back. The two brothers Qiyou also followed.
Chun Ni asked Ning Hai, "Is the empress mother who was sitting next to you just now?" Although Chun Ni has a high seniority, Zeng Chenfu was afraid that she would offend Yuxi, so she did not arrange for her to be the chief. In the second seat.
Chunni has no objection to this arrangement. She didn't dare to do a piece with these nobles, she was very uncomfortable!
Looking at Chun Ni with an incredible face, Ning Hai smiled and said, "It's the empress mother, what's the matter."
"Kui Zi, I heard that the empress dowager is over sixty. But the person sitting next to you has fair skin and no wrinkles, but also has shiny black hair. It seems that she is in her early forties." In this way, she couldn't believe that she was the empress dowager.
There must be wrinkles in the sixties, but because of the makeup and Chunni looking at it from a distance, she didn't see it.
Ning Hai chuckled, "That's because the empress dowager has good care and beauty."
First set a small goal, such as 1 second remember: Shukeju mobile version website:
