Chapter 352 Treasure

   On this day, at little Gu Qingning's full moon banquet, there were many guests and it was very lively.

  In addition to meeting acquaintances and receiving red envelopes, Lan Shu also received a lot of gifts.

  There are various toys for children, hand-knitted children's sweaters, and various more expensive gold locks, silver bracelets, and jade pendants.

   When the full moon wine was over, there were so many gifts in front of Lan Shu that Master Zhang drove three times before they were all delivered!

  …

   On the other side, today is also the day when Meng Guodong, the little grandson of the Meng family, celebrates the full moon wine.

  Meng family, Meng Heng's son is very cautious in naming his son.

  The backgrounds of the two elders of the Meng family made them very interested in the name 'Guodong'.

  Pillar of the country, what a moral~!

  Although Lan Xinya felt that the name was a little foreign, but thinking of the meaning of the national pillar, she finally agreed.

   But before the child grew up, she also gave her child a nickname, Dabao.

   means literally, her treasure, the treasure of Lao Meng's family!

  Meng Dabao's full moon wine is not served at the Kyoto Hotel.

   Although the Meng family can’t afford the consumption over there, the full moon is different from the marriage of a son, and the old couple feel that there is no need to be so extravagant.

  So the location of Meng's Full Moon Wine is located in a slightly larger restaurant in an urban area.

  This restaurant is incomparable with the Kyoto Grand Hotel, but it can also hold a banquet for a large table of guests.

  Meng’s grandson’s full moon wine served more than a dozen tables.

   This is because Meng’s father, Meng Xiang, and Meng’s mother, Liu Cui, have more colleagues in their units.

   and all comrades who have a good relationship with Meng Heng are here.

  Colleagues and friends of the three members of Meng’s family occupied a dozen or so tables, and the remaining two or three tables were relatives.

  As for Lan Xinya's relatives...no one.

  She has close friends in Kyoto, and only five or six of them came.

  Lan Weicheng and Xu Shan both went to the granddaughter's full moon wine scene today.

   It's not that they didn't come to Lan Xinya's side, but Lan Xinya never sent them an invitation or even made a phone call from the beginning to the end.

  Lan Xinya didn't inform, so Lan Weicheng and Xu Shan naturally didn't inquire about the time and place of the banquet held by Meng's family.

In the hospital before, when they heard Xinya laughing at their biological daughter and their granddaughter like that, Lan Weicheng and Xu Shan had already made up their minds. Hurry up and paste it.

  Therefore, Lan Xinya's son's full moon wine feast became the joy of the Meng family.

   And Lan Xinya has no relatives in Kyoto, and not many friends, she looks lonely and pitiful.

  After the banquet, the two elders of the Meng family received a lot of gift money, and some friends brought gifts to his grandson, most of which were rattles, small rattan balls, and small slingshots for boys to play with, as well as a small amount of clothes worn by boys.

   Lan Xinya doesn't care about these things, because they are all worthless.

  What Lan Xinya valued was the gift money received by the Meng family's banquet guests.

  In Lan Xinya's opinion, the gift money received for her son's full moon wine should naturally go to her.

  So after the guests left, everyone returned to Meng's house, and Lan Xinya talked about the gift money to Meng Heng.

  After hearing her thoughts, Meng Heng was really taken aback—

   "Most of the guests who came to participate in the full moon wine today are relatives and friends of their parents. If there are any weddings and funerals in those people's families, their parents will go to the other party's house to accompany the gift, so we shouldn't ask for this money."

   "But this is our son's full moon wine. It's inappropriate for parents to take the money away?"

   Lan Xinya frowned, her expression was obviously unhappy, and her tone was full of blame.

  Hearing Lan Xinya's words, Meng Heng also frowned.

  He is not an unreasonable person, he must not take the gift money his parents received from friends and colleagues!

  But Meng Heng didn't want Lan Xinya to be angry.

  Although he no longer has any feelings for Lan Xinya, he only regards Lan Xinya as the mother of his child.

   But Lan Xinya is married to him, after all, he is also his family, Meng Heng has to take Lan Xinya's thoughts into consideration no matter what.

  So after thinking about it, Meng Heng discussed with Lan Xinya, "I'll go and tell my parents, share the gift money from my comrades and your friends and give it to you."

   Meng Heng was already very embarrassed by doing this. He went to mention this kind of thing to his parents, in fact, he wanted to hurt their parents.

  But in order to prevent Lan Xinya from feeling that the Meng family was bullying others, Meng Heng had no choice but to bite the bullet and tell his parents about it.

  Meng's father and Meng's mother did not expect that their daughter-in-law would ask their son to mention the dowry!

  Grandson Full Moon Wine doesn’t receive a lot of gift money today, and most of the guests who come to them are from ordinary families. Even if a few families have money, they can’t sell thousands or tens of thousands like the Lan family.

  So the gift money of three or five yuan per person accounted for the majority, and some people took six or seven yuan.

   There were a total of 14 tables of banquets, and many of them brought their families to eat, so the total gift money was more than three hundred, less than four hundred yuan.

  This amount of money is nothing compared to the money of the Lan family.

  In general, if there are elders in the family, the gift money is taken by the elders by default, so Meng's father and mother did not specifically mention the gift money.

  They think that their money will be left to their son, daughter-in-law and grandson sooner or later, and then as the grandson grows up, the money spent on the grandson will definitely be more than that.

  But what the son said now made Father Meng silent.

   Meng's mother, Liu Cui, thought of the temper of her daughter-in-law she had seen with her own eyes when she was alone with her in the hospital.

   Liu Cui is not afraid of trouble, but just does not want family harmony.

  So she looked at her son, "Since Xinya wants it, then you can take it."

   As she spoke, she took out the gift money she received today from a black bag she carried with her.

   All of them were paper notes worth fifty cents, which she sorted out in a thick stack.

  She and her husband have savings, and they are not short of three or four hundred yuan. One thing more is worse than one thing less.

   Aside, Meng Xiang didn't speak, and Meng Heng didn't go to pick up the money either.

   "Mom, I can't take all of these. Didn't we write a gift list? Just divide the money from my comrades-in-arms and Xinya's friends. Let's follow the rules."

  Meng Heng has to insist, otherwise he will give everything to Lan Xinya, what kind of talk is that?

  Liu Cui knew her son's temper, so she had no choice but to nod when she saw what his son said.

   So Liu Cui took the gift list to settle the accounts. In the end, Meng Heng took a total of 93 yuan back to the room and handed it to Lan Xinya.

   Lan Xinya got the money, looked at the stack of odds and ends in her hand, and immediately frowned.

   "How much is this? Just this little?"

  She felt that there were so many people serving the full moon wine today, and there were quite a few comrades in arms of Meng Heng. !
