Chapter 378 Birthday Banquet

As soon as Li Mei'er got home, she packed up those things and asked her servants to send them back to the Lu family.

Although Mrs. Li was in pain, after listening to Li Meier's analysis, she also knew that these things should not be kept, so she just reluctantly looked at them, secretly depressed that she didn't have any windfall luck.

Sun Zhongyuan didn't have much reaction. The Li family sent the things back, and he accepted them without saying anything else, which made Li Meier feel relieved.

Before you know it, it's November, and the weather is getting colder and colder. The Li family have all changed into thicker jackets. Li Meier has nothing to do these days. Well, this time she did it very finely, and it took more than a month to make it. There were flowers embroidered on the forehead, and a piece of good-quality Lantian jade was inlaid, which looked very luxurious.

Brother Jian will be one year old on November [-]th, so the Li family will naturally have a birthday party.

Early in the morning of the first-year banquet, Mrs. Li got up and dressed up. She wore a brand new dress, her hair was combed shiny, and she could smell the scent of osmanthus oil nearby. some rouge.

These are okay, but they are the same, Li Yan couldn't help but said, "Mother, it's not too cold outside today, what are you doing with this sleeping rabbit? It's so hot." This thing is made of rabbit skin, and it's probably cold in winter Wear.Although the sun has not risen yet, I know that today is a sunny day.

Mrs. Li helped the snow-white lying rabbit on her forehead for the first time, and said, "It's almost the winter solstice, alas, when I'm old, I can't stand the wind in my head, and I get a headache when I blow a little wind."

Li Yan is a dutiful son. Hearing what his mother said, he said, "Then why don't I ask the doctor to show you to my mother in a few days? This headache is not a small problem."

Mrs. Li is just looking for an excuse, she really has a headache, she can't let her son waste money to hire a doctor, so she quickly said: "The pain is not long, don't make a fuss, the guests outside are coming soon, let's go out .”

Only Li Meier and Mrs. Lin were snickering in the background, both of them knew each other well, Mrs. Li was rushing to show off to others, the lying rabbit made by her granddaughter, wearing a beige, looks good.

Brother Jian’s first-year banquet was not a big deal, he just invited neighbors and relatives over to have a good time. He made a big seal, which made Mrs. Li very happy, and said that his second grandson is also destined to be a high-ranking official in the future.

Naturally, people at the banquet flattered Mrs. Li, looked at her attire and said, "You are really getting richer and richer."

The old lady of the Wang family, Mrs. Wang, and Mrs. Li are of the same generation, and she is two years younger than Mrs. Li. She smiled, "Look at my old sister's whole body style, it's so bright! Oh, what kind of hair is this lying rabbit?" You did it, it looks really soft." The words were quite envious.

Mrs. Li has a real gold hairpin and two gold-plated silver hairpins on her head, a refurbished lying rabbit on her head, two gold earrings on her ears, and a brand new dress. Putting your hands in the fluffy hand covers, you can't keep a low profile even if you want to be low-key, laughing, "It's fox fur. My girl said in the film that this fox fur fur is extra warm for sleeping rabbits."

Mrs. Wang is also wearing a new cotton coat, but her material is ordinary cotton, which is said to be starched and washed, so it looks a bit stiff. However, the satin on the old lady's body is soft and bright, and there are a few gilt hairpins on her hair.

Don't look at the old ladies who are getting older, but they compare more fiercely with the younger ones. Mrs. Li was secretly happy when she told Mrs. Wang, and she pretended to be modest, "Hey, my sister knows my family too, so she doesn't use this good leather I don’t know, but the girl made it secretly. If you don’t wear it, the girl will be unhappy.”

Mrs. Wang said, "This is your blessing, sister-in-law."

Mrs. Li pursed her lips in joy, her eyes became a line with a smile, and her energy and spirit improved a lot.

In the afternoon, when the guests were all gone, Mrs. Li went back to her room a little tired, but she was always smiling. Mrs. Lin brought her a cup of freshly brewed tea and smiled, "Eldest sister, make it for your wife." This lying rabbit is really nice, how many people praised Mrs. wearing the lying rabbit this day looks so rich."

The smile on Mrs. Li's face was even worse, and she said falsely, "You can't take people's flattery seriously." Of course, Mrs. Li's facial expression is not the case at all, and it is obvious that everyone's compliments are justified.

The old man kept wearing the fluffy sleeping rabbit until bedtime, Fang said, "It's a little hot, please help me remove this sleeping rabbit."

There is a buckle on the back of this thing. Mother Lin helped Mrs. Li take it off. Seeing Mrs. Li's brow sweating, she said to herself: You can really endure this, it's too hot~
After Brother Jian's birthday banquet, the twelfth lunar month is Li Meier's birthday, since it is not on the fifth or tenth day, the family members just sit around and eat birthday noodles, there is no ostentation, the most important thing is the warmth.

Mrs. Li is quite satisfied with Li Meier these days. For the first time, she gave her a thin gold bracelet as a birthday present, and said very proudly: "When you are two years old, I will put my golden hairpin at the bottom of the box. I gave it to you, it was used by my old lady when she was old, but it is a good treasure."

It is rare for Mrs. Li to be so generous, and Li Meier thanked her happily.

Li Yan and Mrs. Jiang also gave different birthday presents. What Li Yan gave was a jade bone fracture fan. He personally drew pictures and mentioned characters on it. It was very beautiful. Mrs. Jiang also gave jewelry, a pearl Bu Yao is also exquisitely crafted, and Li Meier likes it very much.

The gift Jiang Shanqing gave this year was very unusual. He gave Li Meier a novel directly, the title of which was "A Dream of Red Mansions". , This time I directly wrote all eighty chapters to her, which really surprised Li Meier.

Li Meier held the book and read it for several days without sleeping or eating. After reading it, she was still a little bit unsatisfied, so she pulled Jiang Shanqing and asked, "Why are there only the first eighty chapters, and the latter one?"

Jiang Shanqing just said with some regret: "The author only wrote the first [-] chapters, but someone continued to write later, but it's okay to continue."

Li Meier was really sorry when she heard the words, and asked again, "Then why didn't the author continue to write?"

"How do you write after the person is dead? You should leave it in suspense. You can think about the ending later." Jiang Shanqing said.

Li Meier sighed, and said sadly again: "Forget it, anyway, Sister Lin is dead, so it doesn't matter what happens to the heartless Han Jia Baoyu."
