"Have a banquet!"
Seeing that all the guests had arrived, Jiang Shan shouted angrily.
All of a sudden, gongs and drums were beating, and two rows of beautiful maids in colorful clothes entered the banquet hall carrying exquisite dishes with smiles on their faces.
For a time, the tempting aroma of the dishes filled the entire hall, whetting your appetite.
In addition to the dishes, jars of fine wine were also constantly being served.
Soon, someone noticed something.
"This wine seems to be a fine wine from Zuixianju!"
"Not only that, these dishes are also served in the private room of Zuixianju. Each banquet table is worth at least five hundred taels of silver!"
"The eldest and third masters of the Jiang family are really filial sons. They are willing to spend a lot of money to buy such a luxurious birthday banquet for the old lady!"
At this moment, at the end of the two rows of maids in colorful clothes, a man in festive red clothes walked out. With a smile on his face, he cupped his hands at Mrs. Jiang who was sitting in the chair and said, "I am Qiu Tian, ​​the steward of Zuixianju.
On behalf of Zuixianju, I would like to wish the old lady a long life!"
This scene aroused constant admiration from everyone.
For a moment, Mrs. Jiang's vanity was fulfilled to the extreme. She smiled from ear to ear, looking at her two sons below, feeling extremely happy.
Her greatest achievement in this life is giving birth to these two filial sons and three well-behaved grandchildren, Jiang Mingxuan, Jiang Yuewu, and Jiang Minghao.
Her son and grandchildren are very proud of her for having such a dignified 70th birthday.
On the other hand, Xu Yin, Jiang Feng and others were neither her biological sons or daughters-in-law, nor could they please her. They really made her dislike them in every possible way.
However, Jiang Tingyi is finally of some use now. She can provide her granddaughter Yue Wu with a place in Tianyue Academy, and it will not be in vain for the Jiang family to provide her with food and drink, and have raised her for so many years.
At this moment, Jiang Tingyi, who was thought of by Mrs. Jiang, was sitting silently in her seat, looking at the exquisite banquet in front of her, but not eating a bite.
Su Chen on the side smiled lazily: "Why don't you eat it? These are your Jiang family's money. This birthday banquet will cost you at least ten thousand taels of silver."
Jiang Tingyi shook her head: "I have no appetite."
Su Chen knew that she was nervous about what would happen, so he said nothing.
There was cheering and laughter among the guests.
After drinking for three rounds, Jiang Shan stood up and shouted loudly: "A gift from this junior!"
The birthday gifts brought by the guests had already been handed over to the butler when they entered the banquet hall.
At this stage, the younger generation of the Jiang family presented the birthday gift they had prepared to the old lady in public, and also showed it to the guests.
At that moment, everyone in the Jiang family stood up one after another, came to the old lady's seat, and presented their birthday gifts to the old lady one by one.
"The birthday gift prepared by my son for his mother is a picture of pines and cranes prolonging life!" Jiang Shan took out a calligraphy and painting from his sleeve and unfolded it in front of everyone.
After the calligraphy and painting was unfolded, it immediately aroused an uproar of admiration. It turned out that this picture of pine and crane extending the year was actually made of fine gold and silver threads, inlaid with plump pearls. Even the picture
The scroll is also made of the most luxurious golden rosewood. The entire scroll is one foot long and sparkling, making it appear grand and luxurious.
A place near Mrs. Jiang
A middle-aged man repeatedly praised and said: "This picture scroll is most suitable to be hung in the living room. It can also bring out the graceful and noble temperament of the old lady. Such a picture scroll, if placed in our precious treasure
The building is worth at least five thousand taels of silver!"
As soon as these words came out, the scene was even more uproar, because this middle-aged man was the shopkeeper Wan of Guibao Building, a famous shop in Qinghe City. He said that the painting of Songs and Cranes Prolonging Life was worth five thousand taels, so it would definitely not be low.
to this number.
"Master Jiang is so filial, what a great gesture."
"Having a scroll like this in the house really shows off its class."
Mrs. Jiang smiled from ear to ear and said to Jiang Shan: "Why waste money!"
Jiang Shan smiled and said: "Being filial to my mother is what a son of mine should do."
Later, Jiang Mingxuan and Jiang Yuewu came forward to offer birthday gifts. Because they were the younger generation, they did not offer such expensive gifts as Jiang Shan did. Instead, each of them presented a beauty pill as a birthday gift.
Everyone also praised her: "The beauty pill can delay the signs of aging and make your appearance last forever. One pill is worth at least one thousand taels of silver. You are such a filial child."
Mrs. Jiang was also very satisfied and said angrily to Jiang Shan: "These two children are just in need of cultivation resources, yet they still spend money on me, an old woman, and you, the father, don't care."
Although she said this, Mrs. Jiang's expression clearly showed that she loved these two beauty pills.
Immediately afterwards, Jiang He and Jiang Minghao also presented gifts.
What Jiang He gave was a red ginseng that has the effect of prolonging life, while what Jiang Minghao gave was a luminous pearl the size of a longan.
These two birthday gifts are also of great value.
Mrs. Jiang was naturally very happy and ordered the two birthday gifts to be collected solemnly.
Afterwards, the eyes of everyone present were focused on Xu Yin and Jiang Tingyi.
The old lady's eldest son's family and the third son's family have already presented birthday gifts. Everyone wants to know what kind of birthday gifts the old lady's second daughter-in-law and second granddaughter have prepared for the old lady?
Outsiders may not know this, but everyone in the Jiang family knows that the old lady has always disliked the second daughter-in-law and second granddaughter. She has never given her a good look, and she doesn’t know if Xu Yin and Jiang Tingyi will.
Will they hold a grudge and not be attentive enough in preparing gifts?
Under the gaze of everyone, Xu Yin and Jiang Tingyi stood up from their seats and came to the old lady.
In their arms, each of the two held a box, which was obviously a birthday gift they had prepared.
Jiang He was standing next to him. He raised the corner of his mouth and said with a smile: "Second sister-in-law is a woman after all. She is more careful than elders like us. I think she should be able to give a gift that will satisfy my mother more."
As soon as he said these words, everyone's eyes focused on Xu Yin.
Many people in the Jiang family shook their heads secretly. They knew that Xu Yin had little money. The economic lifeline of the Jiang family was in the hands of Jiang Shan and Jiang He. Even though Xu Yin was the second wife, she only paid monthly
It's just a little monthly salary from the family.
In this way, it is definitely not comparable to the wealth of Jiang Shan and Jiang He.
But Jiang He had to say such a sentence at this time, obviously to embarrass Xu Yin.
If what Xu Yin brings out is too shabby compared to Jiangshan Jianghe, she will inevitably be ridiculed, and more likely, she will be poked in the spine and said to be unfilial. "Have a banquet!"
Seeing that all the guests had arrived, Jiang Shan shouted angrily.
All of a sudden, gongs and drums were beating, and two rows of beautiful maids in colorful clothes entered the banquet hall carrying exquisite dishes with smiles on their faces.
