The daughter-in-law of a wealthy family does not lie flat

Fu Jiayi and the others went to rest, but Fu Yanheng and Lin Luqing were still busy.

On New Year's Eve, there are many customs and rituals that need to be completed by the eldest son. The Fu family clan lives in the countryside, and after lunch, Fu Yanheng took his two younger brothers back to his hometown to worship the ancestral temple.

Lu Qing was also busy. Although Master Fan was the chef for tonight's New Year's Eve dinner, she had to check everything. Besides, she also wanted to make a dish with good meaning as a token of her own appreciation. Lu Qing had checked the information in advance and had asked Master Fan to personally guide her a few days ago, striving to make this dish look good, fragrant and delicious and bring good luck tonight.

Everything in the kitchen is ready, just waiting for the time to start frying. The chefs also take this time to smoke, drink tea and take a break.

Lu Qing returned to her bedroom and called her parents. Lin's parents liked quietness by nature and could not stand the noise of dozens of people celebrating the New Year together. So they booked a luxury cruise early and went on a trip to Europe. Lu Qing asked about her parents' situation on the phone and was relieved to learn that everything was fine.

After asking her parents to take care of themselves, she hung up the phone and began to prepare for tonight. It was okay to dress simply at ordinary times, but during the Chinese New Year, you had to wear gold and silver in the hope of making a lot of money, which Fu Daishi was particularly concerned about.

Lu Qing put on a crimson Chinese-style gown. Unlike the style for a newlywed, this gown was improved: the whole gown was hand-embroidered, and the embroidery thread was mixed with gold thread, making it even more dazzling. The top was rolled with fur edges, the cuffs were narrowed, and the skirt was loose, which made her look less restrained and more casual. The pattern on the top was cranes and pine needles, which meant "true longevity" and was a blessing to the elderly in the family; the pattern on the skirt was a cluster of lotus flowers, which meant "harmony and beauty". The hem of the skirt was carefully embroidered with gourds, which meant "blessings and fortune". This dress was specially made for Lu Qing by Lin's mother, and every stitch was her mother's love for Lu Qing.

Lu Qing combed her hair into a bun again, pinned a golden phoenix on the side, put ruby ​​pendants on her ears, and wore the golden Ruyi necklace that the Lin family gave her as a dowry when she got married. She also wore a lot of gold and jade bracelets on her wrists, and the diamond ring was given by Fu Yanheng when they got married. Looking in the mirror, she really looks like a daughter-in-law of a wealthy family! When she walked, the light flashed and the rings and bracelets jingled.

When designing clothes, Lu Qing asked the designer to put a secret pocket in it to fit her cell phone. Then, Lu Qing packed everything, put her cell phone in the secret pocket, and walked to the hall in a relaxed manner.

The hall has been arranged. All the decorations have been installed. The servants are preparing the New Year's Eve dinner.

Fu Daishi and Ming Sicun were playing with Mu Xin. Fu Jiayi had just woken up and saw Lu Qing coming. She immediately went up to thank her sister-in-law for the clothes she had carefully prepared for her. It turned out that Jiayi had taken a bath and had a nap. When she woke up, she opened the closet to find clothes to wear. She found that it was full of fashions, college style, urban style, and traditional style. Lu Qing even thought of clothes and underwear for the New Year. She carefully prepared pink, lilac and light red Chinese-style jackets and skirts for Jiayi. Jiayi wore a lotus pink skirt tonight, and a small hairpin inlaid with gold and pearls on one side of her head, which made her look playful and cute.

Fu Daishi was also very happy when he saw his daughter was happy. Although Ming Sicun was afraid of Lu Qing, he could only secretly admire Lu Qing for being thoughtful, which was a hundred times better than Gan Meng.

Fu Daishi was very satisfied with Lin Luqing's outfit today. When the old lady of the Fu family was alive, she paid special attention to everyone's clothes during the New Year and other festivals. I still remember the first year when Ming Sicun married, she followed the fashion and wore black suit pants and a white vest top. The old man was very angry and said that during the New Year, you must wear gold and silver to attract wealth. How can you wear white when there are old people in the family? From then on, the Fu family had a rule that you must wear festive clothes during the New Year.

Lu Qing's outfit today was festive yet not tacky, and her makeup was luxurious yet not ostentatious. Fu Dai thought of her mother who also loved to wear her hair in a bun and a golden phoenix on her temples before she got married. He couldn't help but sigh. He didn't expect to see his mother's shadow in Lu Qing again.

At this time, the Fu brothers also came back and reported the situation of the ancestral hall to their father. Fu Daishi then asked about the situation in his hometown. At this time, Ming Sicun called everyone to eat.

Gan Meng came with Mu Xin in her arms. Usually Mu Xin was held by her nanny, but today was a holiday, so they sat together at the dining table. Fu Yanheng and Lu Qing sat together. There were so many people that it was inconvenient to say more, so she secretly held Lu Qing's hand. Gan Meng also knew the rules and wore a red cheongsam. Not willing to be mediocre, the cheongsam was made to be particularly tight, showing off her curves. The Fu brothers all wore Chinese Tang suits, but the colors and styles were slightly different.

Fu Daishi saw that everyone was seated, picked up the wine glass and said, "It's New Year's Eve again. Thanks to the blessings of our ancestors, our Fu family has spent this year safely and smoothly. We all have to thank God for his favor and the blessings of our ancestors. This year, Mu Xin was born in the family. She is the new generation of our Fu family. Your mother and I are very happy, and we also want to thank Ah Meng. Yan Heng, Lu Qing, Yuan Ji, you can all be independent in the company, and I feel much more relaxed this year. Jun Lin and Jia Yi both have excellent grades in school, which is gratifying. In the new year, I hope that the Fu family, young and old, will remember the Fu family motto: Heaven moves vigorously, and a gentleman strives for self-improvement. The times are changing with each passing day, and new technologies and new technologies are emerging in an endless stream. I hope that in the new year everyone can work together and keep up with the development of the times. Come on! Everyone raise your glasses and wish our family good health and all the best in the new year! I wish our country peace and prosperity!"

Everyone raised their glasses and drank together. Ming Sicun invited the children to eat. For the New Year's Eve dinner tonight, Master Fan and his apprentices showed their skills. Every dish was delicious and had a good meaning. Sweet Osmanthus Wine Dumplings - Reunion, Mixed Vegetables and Scallops - Prosperity, Cabbage with Abalone Sauce - Wealth Gathering, Lotus Root with Shrimp Balls - Harmony and Happiness, Lamb Stewed - Rising Step by Step, Stir-fried Beef Fillet with Snow Peas - Bullish, Steamed Egg with Tofu and Shrimp - Prosperity, Stir-fried Lobster with Assorted Vegetables - Bright Future, Braised Golden Money Abalone with Mushrooms - Wealth Rolling in, Garlic Chicken Wings - Soaring High, Dongpo Braised Pork - Good Luck, Fried Spring Rolls - Spring, Pickled Tomato Beef - Prosperity, Scallion Chicken - Good Luck, Steamed Sea Bass - Abundance Every Year, and even the blueberry yam made for Mu Xin was named Purple Air from the East.

Exquisite dishes came one after another, and everyone was eating and drinking happily. After the dishes were served, Master Fan and his apprentices came to wish Fu Daishi a happy new year as usual, and then they would go home to celebrate the festival. Fu Daishi Ming Sicun presented a red envelope, and Master Fan thanked him and said with a smile, "Master, Madam, there is a dish here that was made by the eldest young lady." Fu Daishi and Fu Yanheng asked at the same time, "Which one is it?" Everyone was happy.

Fu Yanheng looked around and said, "Is it grilled lobster?" Fu Junlin said, "It should be steamed pigeon."

Lu Qing smiled and shook her head. Everyone guessed wrong. Finally, Fu Jiayi said, "It's asparagus with clams. I saw my sister-in-law peeling clams when I passed by the kitchen."

Master Fan said, "This dish is called "Satisfying Your Heart"!

Everyone praised her. Fu Daishi said, "She is a good cook and a good cook. She is worthy of being the eldest daughter-in-law of our Fu family!" Fu Yanheng quickly ate a few more bites of asparagus and said, "Old Fan, don't say I am biased. I think my wife's cooking is the best!" Everyone laughed even more.
