When Xiu'er held a birthday party for his first birthday, Dafang first broke the convention and only used a few of Dafang's daughters-in-law, without disturbing the Sun family's aunts.

This is just the beginning, starting from Yang Yongxian.

None of Sun, Bao Suyun, or Yang Ruoqing here could tell how they felt about such a beginning.

Maybe there is relief, maybe there is loss, maybe there is a faint excitement.

But whether you are relaxed or disappointed, it is reasonable, because this is the law of real development.

The old Yang family will have more and more children and grandchildren in the future, and this is bound to happen. Take the powerful and powerful families in Da Qi, for example, their roots are intertwined and have many root systems.

There is a main line and there are side branches. Whichever house will produce a promising person in the future can represent the old Yang family. That side will be the main line and the ancestors will be honored. The other mediocre ones will become vassals...

"Grandma Qing'er probably doesn't want this. They definitely want us to come over and help cook. I don't know whose idea it was, but they didn't invite any of us. I'm a little surprised." After a while,

Bao Suyun said with a bitter smile.

Sun also smiled and said, "This matter has nothing to do with Bamei and Liu'er. It should be Yongxian and his eldest brother's idea."

Yang Ruoqing said: "Sister-in-law Liao Meiying is pregnant and her body is not very neat. Xiu'er was not born by her. She will definitely not show off in this situation. It must be Li Xiuxin's idea."

"Why did Li Xiuxin do this? Would your grandma agree to such a request?" Mrs. Sun was very confused.

Yang Ruoqing said: "Li Xiuxin has won the support of my first cousin. My first cousin insists, so my grandparents will definitely have to compromise."

"You know, my eldest cousin is actively preparing for the exam. My grandparents have done so many things, isn't it just so that my eldest cousin can have a bright future? This is because the birthday party made my eldest cousin feel bad.

Okay, what should I do if I miss my studies?"

"Besides, my grandma probably thinks that Xiu'er is a concubine after all, so let's just leave it that way!"

When Sun and Bao Suyun heard Yang Ruoqing's analysis, they both felt it made sense.

Yang Ruoqing stood up and said: "This is their plan. Let's slap them one level apart and stop guessing. Now that the gifts have been discussed, I will go home and prepare them and send them over together later."

In the old Yang family's old house, the two kitchens in the front yard were firing. Liao Meiying, Li Xiuxin, Cao Bamei, and Zhao Liu'er were busy in the kitchen.

"Sister-in-law, you are pregnant, you should go and rest for a while, I will burn it."

Cao Bamei couldn't bear to see Liao Meiying, who was more than five months pregnant and so busy there.

Liao Meiying smiled and said, "It's okay. It's only been more than five months. I can handle it."

In the kitchen next door, Zhao Liuer and Li Xiuxin were also busy.

Li Xiuxin has been pregnant for more than six months. Compared with Liao Meiying's belly that just showed her pregnancy, Li Xiuxin's belly is much rounder.

She put one hand on her lower back and the other hand holding a spatula, standing next to the pot and stirring.

"Liu'er, you think this person is really strange. Normally, I would feel sick even if I smell the fumes, let alone cooking by myself."

"I can actually hold a spoon today. You see, I can swing the spatula so vigorously that I don't feel tired at all!" Li Xiuxin said with a smile while cooking while talking to Zhao Liu'er who was stuffing firewood in the stove.

Zhao Liuer also smiled and said: "People feel refreshed when happy events happen. Sister-in-law Xiuxin, if you feel tired, just let me do it. It's very inconvenient for you to have a big belly."

Li Xiuxin smiled and shook her head: "It's okay. Today is my son's first birthday. As a mother, I am happy. No matter how tired I am, I am happy."

Zhao Liuer smiled, lowered her head and continued to add firewood to the stove.

Li Xiuxin said again: "Third brother and sister, while you are young, hurry up and have more babies."

Zhao Liu'er raised her head, smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, I'm not impatient. The little girl is only a few months old, so I won't worry about that for now."

Li Xiuxin paused the spatula in her hand, looked at Zhao Liu'er condescendingly, and said with a half-smile: "Little girl, what the hell, just a girl, I am telling you these heart-breaking words for your own good, you

You have to give birth to more sons while you are young. In Lao Yang’s family, you can only stand firm if you have sons!"

Zhao Liuer was stunned, and the smile froze on her face.

Li Xiuxin continued: "Hong'er is already five or six years old. Even though he was raised by you, there is still a layer of belly between him and you."

"You have worked hard to raise him up, and you will marry a wife in the future. If she is careless, what can you do? After all, Hong'er did not come out of your belly, and you are not a serious mother-in-law. What do you think?

Right?"

Zhao Liuer's face turned ugly. She sneered and said, "Sister-in-law Xiuxin, I only call you sister-in-law to give you face. In the end, you are just a concubine of my eldest brother."

"What is a concubine? A concubine is just a tool to carry on the family line, a plaything. Even if you give birth to a litter of sons, you will not be my serious sister-in-law after all!"

After saying this, Zhao Liuer threw the fire stick in his hand to the ground and left the kitchen with a gloomy face.

In the kitchen, Li Xiuxin was stunned by the pot and blinked.

"Has your brain been caught in the door? It's rare that I'm so kind and kind to say thoughtful words to you. I don't know what's good or evil. Bah, you deserve not to have a son!"

Li Xiuxin spat towards the mouth of the stove, then waved the spatula and hummed a little tune.

"Hey, isn't that Liu'er? Why did she run back to the house?"

In the kitchen next door, Liao Meiying and Cao Bamei were chatting and laughing when they suddenly saw Zhao Liuer running back to the house like a gust of wind and slamming the door shut with a bang.

Liao Meiying looked at the slammed door in surprise, and asked Cao Bamei.

Cao Bamei also stood up immediately, and the two of them came to the door of the kitchen and took a few glances outside.

Today is the Hungry Ghost Festival, the fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month, and it happens to coincide with Xiu'er's first birthday.

Originally, Lao Yangtou proposed to do the birthday celebration one day in advance, but Yang Yongxian insisted on doing it today, and even sent invitations to relatives and friends with a stroke of his pen.

As a result, from the morning until now, representatives from relatives and friends have been sent over one after another. They all came to deliver gifts and stopped eating.

Lao Yangtou and Mr. Tan received the guests who came to give gifts in the east room of the backyard, and received and sent away some of them.

Even Yang Huamei, my direct aunt, only took the time to come over today to give some gifts and did not leave any food to eat. Today is the Ghost Festival, and no one wants to go to other people's houses for dinner.

So Old Yang became a little annoyed. In the middle of the morning, he summoned brothers Yang Huazhong and Yang Huazhou together and issued a death order. No matter what happened to relatives and friends, the people in the houses of Old Yang's family must come over this noon to eat.
