Chapter 687 Full Moon Wine

Even if we don't talk about taking it back with equal value, at least we have to save face.

Lu Miao asked Tang Mei to fry some fried fruits, so she fried them.

She and Fu Jingyou went to the department store and replaced the cheap fruit candies they had originally ordered with dragon beard candies.

On this basis, I went to all the department stores on the West Second Ring Road and bought more than 80 packs of Zhonghua cigarettes.

I originally wanted to buy more, two packs of cigarettes per family.

However, the supply of cigarettes was not abundant and it was really difficult to buy them. After running around for a whole day, Lu Miao could only get a few by piecing together whole packs and some scattered cigarettes, so he decided to give up.

They try their best to do well and be decent, but if they really can't do it, then there's nothing they can do.

After buying everything and returning home, on the first day of the full moon banquet, Liu Wenpei and Ling's mother came to help, assisting Tang Mei in frying the fruits.

Before the work officially started, Ling's mother and Liu Wenpei went into the room to see the children.

Seeing the pile of Zhonghua cigarettes on the kang, Ling's mother's eyes almost popped out:

"Is this a return gift? Xiaobao, how much did you buy? Why would you need to buy such good cigarettes as a return gift?"

The cigarettes commonly smoked on the market are the frugal ones that cost a few cents a pack.

The very particular people in Lu Yuanzheng's circle would at most smoke a pack of Daqianmen cigarettes which cost fifty cents.

This style of Zhonghua cigarettes is sold for at least RMB 1.20 a pack in supply and marketing cooperatives and department stores!

Lu Miao smiled and said, "I bought 86 bags. They are not heavy. I just want to make it lively and festive. Everyone comes happily, eats well and drinks well, and goes back happily too."

“More than eighty packs!”

When Ling's mother heard this, her eyes went dark and she exclaimed:
"These cigarettes alone cost over a hundred yuan. You, kid, it would cost a lot to set up so many tables of wine. Why do you need such an expensive gift..."

Lu Miao sat on the edge of the kang and rocked the child in his arms, then said with a helpless and warm smile:

"Just spend the money. It's only once for a full moon party, and it's not often held... Besides, I've already bought everything."

Ling's mother thought so too, sighed slightly and said nothing more.

Liu Wenpei, on the other hand, heard that the cigarettes alone on the kang cost over a hundred yuan. She sat next to Lu Miao, stretched out her hand to tease and poke the baby's face, and said with emotion:

"You are really born with gold. You have been able to spend money since you were young."

Lu Miao was not ashamed of it, but proud of it.

Let’s put aside the question of whether one can spend money from a young age.

What Liu Wenpei said was not wrong: her children were indeed golden treasures.

She lowered her head to kiss the child, and when she raised her eyes again, she looked at Liu Wenpei with a smile:
"You'll understand when you have a child. You'll want to give him everything good."

Maternal love is natural, and because of the hardships experienced from pregnancy to childbirth, one will treasure and love this little life that was created by oneself and that was closely connected to oneself.

Liu Wenpei felt embarrassed by what she said, her face turned red, and she stood up and walked out:

"Just look after your gold, I'm going to help in the kitchen!"

Lu Miao laughed and shook his head, then lowered his head to tease the baby:

"Yangyang, look here. Mommy is here, huh?"

Little Yangyang's dark eyes swayed back and forth, finally fixing on his mother's face.

Her thin lips and eyes curved up all of a sudden, and she smiled so sweetly.

Lu Miao laughed too, looking at his youngest son's eyes that looked like washed grapes, and muttered:
"How can it be like mine? Isn't it the same as his father's? Is it the outline of peach blossom eyes? You are so ridiculous!"

Lu Miao complained about Fu Jingyou in a low voice.

……

Fry all the fried fruits the afternoon before.

At night, put the oily fruits into small bags, and wrap the dragon beard candies and Zhonghua cigarettes separately in small packages using oil paper.

The next morning, Fu Jingyou took the things to the state-owned restaurant and went there to make some detailed arrangements. He had written a festive red paper list for the full moon banquet and had discussed it with the state-owned restaurant early in the morning. It would be posted on the door at the appointed time.

Dragon's Beard Candy, Fruit Candy, White Rabbit Candy, etc., several kinds of candy were mixed together in a large sieve and placed on the table on the first floor of the state-owned restaurant.

As long as passers-by see the posted red paper slip, they can go in and grab some candy.

Mei Zi went there with Fu Jingyou.

I had anticipated that the day would be busy, so I discussed it with Mei Zi early and asked her to come over to help look after some things.

Let’s talk about Lu Miao.

Everyone inside and outside the house was busy, but she was the only one who had some free time.

All I have to do is take care of myself and my four children.

Among the children, the older ones understand some things.

Just give your child a toy and call him to play with you, and you won’t have to worry about anything.

The smaller ones are even more so.

She lay on the kang wearing a beautiful red cotton bellyband, rolling her eyes and kicking her chubby legs, watching her brothers and sisters play with toys without crying or making a fuss.

Yangyang is just one month old and can’t roll over yet.

Just in case, Lu Miao acted cautiously and placed two pillows on the edge of the kang before he took some time to tidy himself up.

Then I took out a comb and a small box for Erbao to store her hair flowers and hair ties.

When Erbao was sitting on the kang playing with his brothers, she would sit behind him and comb the little girl's hair into a beautiful and neat style.

After getting myself and my children dressed from head to toe, the state-owned restaurant was also busy.

Lu Yuanzheng entertained guests and old friends at the hotel. He gave the car keys to Fu Jingyou and asked his son-in-law to go home and pick up the elderly and children.

As soon as Fu Jingyou left, someone patted Lu Yuanzheng on the shoulder and joked:

"I say, Old Lu, your son-in-law looks incredible. He's calm, does things properly and efficiently, and he even went to a good university. He's really incredible!"

Lu Yuanzheng smiled and nodded, standing up for his son-in-law openly:
"He's hardworking and capable, a good guy. I didn't tell you last time that the academician named Zhou who does research at the Academy of Sciences really likes him."

"Ah? Is it true? What is going on here, Lao Lu, you have to tell us in detail."

If his son-in-law was present, Lu Yuanzheng would be too embarrassed to show off.

Isn't it because the son-in-law is not present?
Lu Yuanzheng waved his hand and said with a smile:

"Okay, okay, please take a seat first and let's talk slowly."

There was a "click" sound of a table being moved, and more than a dozen veteran cadres and comrades in white shirts and Mao suits took their seats in the private room one after another.

Through a doorway, people sitting at several tables outside, either students or workers, were looking in.

Those inside are obviously big leaders.

This scene is really rare.

If it weren’t for this full moon banquet, where would they be able to see so many big shots?

Not only the guests invited to the dinner, but also the employees in the state-owned hotel were quite surprised.

At that time, there were no waiters in state-owned restaurants.

As the second floor was booked for a festive occasion, the hotel made arrangements and temporarily arranged two employees to serve the guests.

The dish was served, but the person who served it was not very happy.

It's a stable job, and they get the same salary whether customers eat there or not.

But now so much more work has been assigned to me, who would be willing to do it?
