Girlfriend's Fortune

Chapter 530 Chapter 520 Nine: Going to the Banquet
Today, we are going to the shopkeeper Qi's house to celebrate his birthday and have a drink. Song Qiu and Ah Ling changed their clothes early in the morning.

The three of them went out together and went to Fuji Steamed Bun Shop for breakfast.

Then they sent the pear blossoms to Liji Tailored Clothing Shop, and Song Qiu and A Lingcai strolled to the dessert shop.

It's still early, so there's no need to come to the door right now.

In the shop, the Yangs are busy preparing today's dessert.

Song Qiu thought about the new snacks yesterday, and taught them.

After a lot of work, it was getting late, so he took a gift and went to Qi's house with Ah Ling.

Shopkeeper Qi is the big shopkeeper of Luji Commercial Bank. He has an employment relationship with Mr. Lu. He has been with Mr. Lu for more than [-] years. He is indispensable for Mr. Lu's business, so he is not just a small shopkeeper, but also in Panshi Town. Above is number one.

Therefore, his family held a birthday banquet, and many people came to congratulate him.

At least, almost all the businessmen in Panshi Town, shopkeepers and so on, came.

When Song and Qiu arrived at Fukang Lane, they could see from a distance that there was a continuous stream of guests in front of the Qi family's big house.

Shopkeeper Qi and his son personally received the congratulatory guests at the door.

Song Qiu held the congratulatory gifts and slowed the flow of people forward, and soon it was their turn.

When shopkeeper Qi saw Song Qiu, he said happily, "Song Xiaodong's family is here! Welcome! Come inside!"

Song Qiu also greeted with a smile, went to the door in a good manner, and entered the gate, there was a steward who was in charge of registering the congratulatory gifts, so he sent the box he was carrying up, and then went inside.

Shopkeeper Qi will receive all the guests at the door to show solemnity, and he will not come in until the reception is over.

As for the guests who came in, the housekeeper waited for a group of servants to lead them back.

Male guests are received in the outer flower hall, while female guests are received in the inner flower hall.

They are not real relatives, so there is no need to go to the old lady of the Qi family to celebrate her birthday.

The old lady is getting old, and she doesn't have the energy to deal with everyone who comes to celebrate her birthday.

The maid who led Song and Qiu directly led them to the inner courtyard.

The inner flower hall had three bays, and it was very spacious. At this time, there were already many people inside, some gathered in the main hall, and some sat in twos and threes in the side hall. Song Qiu looked around and didn't recognize any of them.

Here are all the wives, grandmas and girls from various families. They didn't have any contact with each other, so they went to the side hall with Ah Ling to find an inconspicuous seat, and then went to the banquet after the banquet outside.

The wives of various families are sitting and chatting in the living room, so they must always pay attention to the people who come in.

She didn't know any of them, and the people in the flower hall didn't know the two of them either.

Seeing two people coming in, looking for a place to sit down, and not looking for someone to chat and socialize, it must attract people to look at them twice.

Looking at it, I found that everyone didn't know each other, so I was unavoidably curious.

After all, they are all in similar circles, and it is common to go to a banquet at someone's house every day.

But these two people had never seen each other before.

These two girls, who looked about the same age, came in together, but they didn't look alike, so they shouldn't be sisters.

Wearing a goose-yellow dress, this person is a little taller, with a round face and round eyes. He looks lively and clever.

The other little girl in a honey-colored dress was born petite, although she was not a beautiful woman, but she was white and clean, and her palm-sized face was somewhat delicate, pearly and jade-like. She has a rather demure temperament, which people like, but she is a little thinner.

These are generally all kinds of big banquets and small banquets. When wives and grandma get together, it is inevitable to talk about their children and marriages.

And isn't it because of this kind of time that you can get a close look at whose girl's character and talent?

These two girls have never met before, I don't know which family they belong to, let's not talk about other things, just look at their looks and talents, they are quite good.

Then someone asked Mrs. Qi who was in charge of entertaining the female relatives.

Mrs. Qi was also questioned.

She didn't recognize these two girls either.

Everyone who comes is a guest, so it's not good to just call someone over and tell them to report themselves, this is the owner's fault.

But the lady who asked is still waiting to hear, she is not easy to offend,
So he called his daughter over and told her to go up and make friends and talk to find out the details.

Miss Qi got her own mother's order, as the master, it is also necessary to entertain girls of the same age, so she took her maid and walked towards Song and Qiu.

"Why are the two girls sitting alone on one side? It's still a while before they leave the banquet, and they are playing Shuanglu over there. Do you want to go there and play together?"

Shuanglu?

She won't.

Looking at A Ling again, he definitely won't.

Song Qiu shook his head and smiled, "No, let's sit and drink tea, these melon seeds are quite fragrant."

Miss Qi saw that they were not coming, so she simply sat down on the other side of the Four Immortals table, and said with a smile: "This is the special red dates and caramel melon seeds from Yushan. It has a sweet and fragrant taste, and I like it too." of."

Well, it came out.

Song Qiu smiled and nodded, "It's delicious."

This is true, Ah Ling beside him has already peeled a plate of melon seeds.

Seeing Song Qiu's smiling and friendly look, Miss Qi couldn't help but like it a little, so she said openly: "Then we really have the same preferences, and the girl is also pretty, why doesn't she seem to have seen you before? I've seen it a long time ago, and I should have introduced it as a friend long ago."

"By the way, my surname is Qi, and my first name is Ruyu."

Seeing her bright and generous appearance, Song Qiu was somewhat likable, and after hearing her self-introduction, she immediately understood her identity.

It should be a girl from the Qi family, and she said that coming here to say hello looks like the owner's family.

She replied: "I haven't seen it before. It's the first time I've come to your house for dinner. My surname is Song and my name is Qiu. This is my younger sister Song Ling."

Ah Ling heard Song Qiu introduce her name, Song Ling stopped eating melon seeds, and grinned at Qi Ruyu.

Surname Song?

Qi Ruyu blinked, and talked with Song Qiu and the two for a long time. She was ordered by her mother to inquire, but at this moment she really felt that the two girls were very nice.

She doesn't have many friends, so it would be nice if she could be friends with the two of them.

So I deliberately said yes, and I will come to have dinner with them later, then got up and left with a smile.

As a host, you must be considerate and entertain all guests.

Song Qiu didn't care too much, seeing people left, he kowtowed melon seeds with Ah Ling and talked in a low voice, he didn't look around, caring that there were so many people around.

Qi Ruyu left here, went to a few girls to talk to, and then went to Mrs. Qi.

"Surname Song?"

Mrs. Qi couldn't help being surprised.

There seems to be no relatives and friends with the surname Song in their family.

There is a family surnamed Song in this town, who is the shopkeeper Song of Tongfang Pharmacy.

But that's not something people like them can afford.

Besides, in the Song family in Panshi Town, the shopkeeper Song and his wife brought their children, so how old is the girl of the Song family?

Mrs. Qi couldn't understand for a while, and the wives who chatted with her also heard Qi Ruyu's reply, and they were also curious about which girl from the Song family it was.

At this time, a wife and two little girls were ushered in by the servant girl.

When everyone in the room saw it, they were immediately attracted to it, and they all stood up to meet the person who came, but they didn't care about the others.
