Chapter 6303 Birthday Banquet (Part 1)

Changping Village.

The birthday banquet for Tan's 70th birthday is in full swing.

The confidentiality work was done well this time, and the only people who got the news were relatives at home and friends in the village and nearby villages.

As for the people in the town, the county government, and the official circles and shopping malls further away, the people in the shopping malls were not informed, so these banquet tables were placed in the yard just right. It was full of the atmosphere of a banker's family, and the men were playing cards.

The older and more calm ones held tea bowls and talked about the farm work in the coming winter, the women gathered together to eat melon seeds, and the children chased and played around in the yard.

Mrs. Sun and all the daughters-in-law of Lao Yang's family were busy in the backyard kitchen.

As for today's protagonist, Mrs. Tan, surrounded by her daughter and several granddaughters, was changing into new clothes and shoes in her guest room!

"What should I change? I'm already old. I can't wear anything else. How can I wear it like a flower?"

Although she said words of resistance, the old lady's body was very honest.

Yang Huamei, San Yatou and the others helped her change into new clothes from head to toe. It was no trouble at all and she was quickly dressed and looking brand new.

"Mom, it's your seventieth birthday today. This is a rare treasure among our farmers. We must wear new clothes for good luck!"

Yang Huamei quickly folded the old clothes Tan had changed and put them aside, then helped her sit down.

Next to it, the three girls opened the box for combing their hair and handed it over.

Yang Huamei picked up a comb, dipped it in a little osmanthus oil, and gently combed it on Tan's head.

"I will put your hair in a bun and put on some jewelry given by my sisters-in-law, and you will be a complete birthday girl!"

Tan's face turned red and spat.

"What's going on here? I was never so ostentatious when I was celebrating my 60th birthday. I'm dressed like a big girl about to get into a sedan chair. I feel uncomfortable all over!"

Tan's words made everyone laugh.

Yang Ruoqing couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Hey, this is the first time for a big girl to get on the sedan chair, and it's also the first time for you to celebrate your seventieth birthday. Seventy. Looking at our village, there are no women who are older than you.

No, I can count the number of old men on one hand, so you’re not surprised!"

Mrs. Tan was elated when she heard this and raised her mouth proudly: "I dare not say anything else. The grass on the graves of those old women who had a quarrel with me back then is several feet high!"

Yang Ruoqing cooed, "So, you have won a big victory here, and today is your coronation, so these new clothes are your robes. Auntie will give you a new bun later.

Let me bring you some jewelry, and we will appear in front of the guests as brightly as the moon in the sky, blinding their eyes, okay?"

Mrs. Tan's cheeks were burning due to Yang Ruoqing's teasing. She couldn't help but raise her hand and patted Yang Ruoqing's arm gently: "You damn fat girl, you'll tease me with such a naughty mouth!"

Yang Ruoqing was in a good mood today, and since she was the protagonist of Tan's family, she gave extra face to Tan's family. When Yang Huamei was busy combing Tan's hair, Yang Ruoqing was still helping pass things to her.

When Tan's hair was combed, she inserted the double-row twisted silver hairpin bought by Sun, the silver earrings given by Liu on her ears, and the silver ring given by Bao Suyun on her finger.

She wore a pair of pure gold longevity locks around her neck that were given to her by Yang Ruoqing. The four-leaf clover gold bracelets on her wrists were brought back by Yang Ruolan. In addition, Ju'er also prepared a pair of gold earrings for her.

Because she already wore the silver earrings given by Mrs. Liu on her ears, Mrs. Tan put away the gold earrings given by Ju'er first.

While Yang Huamei helped Tan dress up, she looked at the mother who was gradually glowing with jewels, feeling unspeakable guilt in her heart.

The few pieces of silver jewelry on her head were prepared by her sisters-in-law, the few pieces of gold jewelry on her body were given by her married granddaughters, and the clothes, hats, shoes and hats on her body came from several unmarried granddaughters in the family, such as Mianmian and San Yatou.

Waiting for joint preparation.

Everyone worked hard for this birthday party, but as my mother's most beloved biological daughter, I just followed the example of relatives and friends outside and sent brown sugar, noodles, eggs, etc.

A little more, I would put the pearl necklace given by Yongxian last time under the egg... It can be regarded as borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha!

Yang Huamei felt very uncomfortable.

She hopes that her parents' family will be well and prosperous, so that she can take care of her own family, make her family's life easier, and also make herself stronger in her husband's family.

But her family was really prosperous, and the gifts that her sister-in-law and nieces and nephews gave to the old lady were beyond her reach. The strong contrast also made her feel uncomfortable.

It seemed as if I had really become that poor relative who beat the autumn wind.

"I want to relieve myself, leave Mei'er to help me, and you all go outside!"

Tan suddenly ordered.

Others left the house one after another, leaving Yang Huamei to take care of Mrs. Tan.

"Mom, let me help you go to the toilet behind the bed to relieve yourself..."

Tan suddenly held Yang Huamei's hand:

"No, I didn't pee at all."

"Ah?" Yang Huamei was surprised, "Then what are you going to do by sending them out?"

Mrs. Tan took out a red handkerchief from her body, peeled off several layers, took out a pair of pure gold earrings and stuffed them into Yang Huamei's hands: "Take these earrings."

Yang Huamei was stunned, "Isn't this given to you by Ju'er? What are you doing for me? Besides, I don't like wearing these things."

Yang Huamei wanted to return it, but Tan held her down, "Whether you wear it or not is up to you. Anyway, I gave you these earrings. It's up to you to sell them to supplement your family income."

Yang Huamei pinched the earring in her hand, her cheeks burning.

"Mom, what are you talking about? Even if Shuanzi and I don't have the ability anymore, we can't sell the things they have given to you to honor you. I don't want it, even if I kill you!"

Yang Huamei forced the things back on Ms. Tan. Before Ms. Tan could give in again, she turned around, opened the door, and shouted to the people outside: "You all come in, your milk is ready."

Hearing the noise outside, Mrs. Tan lowered her face, muttering in her mouth, and quickly put away the gold earrings with her fingers.

This silly Mei'er can't save face by coming here with her own mother. Really, she cried when she had no money to raise a child and no money to give medicine to Wang Shuanzi's sick boy!

I'll keep these things for now, and then give them to her when I have time later.

This time, not only Yang Ruoqing and her granddaughters came in, but also Sun and other women.

"Mom, we are here to pick you up and take you to sit in the courtyard. All the relatives are almost here." Mrs. Sun said with a smile, respectfully and meekly.
