Chapter 851: Eight hundred and forty-nine, Wedding Banquet
Zhu Huizhen placed the tiger head shoes back on the table and smiled at everyone, “Dinner is ready, let’s all go to the dining room to eat.”
“Okay, Auntie!” Everyone stood up and followed Zhu Huizhen to the dining room.
After Zhu Huizhen asked everyone to sit down, she had the kitchen serve the dishes that had been prepared in advance.
The Lu family had two dining rooms, where everyone usually ate in the main dining room. When there were guests over and it wasn’t convenient to eat with everyone else, they would eat in the separate dining room. This also avoided any awkwardness between the hosts and guests.
The dishes were very rich and exquisitely prepared, making them very appetizing at first glance.
“Don’t be shy, everyone!” Zhu Huizhen called out with a smile and then ca to Luo Shu’s side, “I’ll leave it to you to take care of everyone here, Mom won’t stay and disturb you all.” Although she was already familiar with everyone, they were all young, and if she stayed, they might inevitably feel sowhat constrained.
“Auntie! Aren’t you staying here to eat?” Everyone was a bit surprised to hear that Zhu Huizhen was leaving.
“You young people have your own topics, I won’t interrupt your chat, don’t be shy, just treat this like your own ho.” Zhu Huizhen smiled at everyone and walked out of the dining room.
Without the elder present, everyone indeed felt much more relaxed. They chatted about everything under the sun and only said their goodbyes and left reluctantly late at night. Although they all lived in Jinchen, each had their busy schedules and the chances to et were getting less and less.
Luo Shu had just finished bathing when Lu Hanmo ca back.
Lu Hanmo stepped forward to embrace Luo Shu, affectionately kissing her face, then played with the baby inside her with Divine Sense for a while, “I’ll go take a bath first, then we can chat later.” The day after tomorrow was Mo Shaoze and Shen Anning’s wedding day, and he had taken three days off. He would have ti to spend with Shushu and the Baby these three days.
“Mhm!” Luo Shu smiled and nodded. Since she ca back, they had spent less ti together; they only had the evenings to chat for a while.
Lu Hanmo let go of Luo Shu, walked over, opened the wardrobe, took out his pajamas and went into the bathroom.
Soon the sound of “whooshing” water ca from the inside.
Luo Shu smiled slightly, climbed onto the bed, and took out a novel to read. This was a book they bought at a bookstore while shopping today.
Lu Hanmo ca out of the bathroom and saw Luo Shu reading a book, he smiled warmly, went to the bedside, lifted the covers, and lay down.
Luo Shu put the novel away and leaned against Lu Hanmo’s chest, “Have you taken the ti off?” She felt even happier than the heroine in the novel.
Lu Hanmo nodded with a smile, his large hand habitually stroked Luo Shu’s bulging belly, “I took three days off, is there anywhere you’d like to go?” Shushu’s current physical condition was very good, so he was quite at ease.
Luo Shu shook her head, “I want to stay at ho and enjoy the ti with just the two of us.”
“All right!” Lu Hanmo nodded with a smile. Whatever she wanted to do, he’d indulge her. In his heart, nothing could compare to her.
“Today, I went shopping with Zhang Qi and the others, they bought a lot of baby stuff.” Luo Shu narrated the events of the day slowly, enjoying sharing everything with him.
Lu Hanmo listened quietly, sotis smiling, sotis frowning slightly, but his gaze on Luo Shu was always as gentle as water, filled with indulgence and deep love.
Mo Shaoze’s wedding was set to take place in the largest Yueting Clubhouse in Jinchen. During the Qing Dynasty, this place was a Prince’s Mansion.
The scenery in the garden was quite nice, with pavilions, ancient trees reaching sky high, decorative rocks, and hills of Earth surrounding it.
Following the bluestone path in the garden, they arrived in front of a two-story building with unique characteristics. This was the Yueting Clubhouse. During the Qing Dynasty, it was originally a place where princes held banquets, so the hall was very spacious. Coupled with a distinctive decorative style, it gave people a pleasant surprise at first glance.
Seeing Lu Hanmo and Luo Shu arrive, Mo Shaoze hurriedly ca up to greet them with a smile, “You’ve finally co.” His biggest concern was that Lu Hanmo wouldn’t be able to attend his wedding because of Luo Shu. Now seeing them, he finally felt relieved.
“Congratulations!” Lu Hanmo smiled and handed Mo Shaoze a red envelope.
Mo Shaoze didn’t stand on ceremony with Lu Hanmo, taking the red envelope and putting it into his pocket, “Let take you in.” As Lu Hanmo was his best friend, he naturally wanted to host him personally.
After leading Lu Hanmo and Luo Shu into the hall and getting them seated, Mo Shaoze went to get a plate of fruit and a glass of red wine, handing them to Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo, respectively, before leaving to greet other guests. The specialty of the Yueting Clubhouse was its pre-dinner self-service, ensuring the guests wouldn’t be hungry.
“Luo Shu!” Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo were in conversation when an excited voice called out.
Looking up, they saw Professor Shen, surprise written all over his face as he approached them.
“I was thinking you might not co this ti.” Professor Shen said with a smile. Last ti Luo Shu went to Langxi Country, she was already showing a significant baby bump. Anning also said Luo Shu might not be able to attend her wedding with Mo Shaoze, which disappointed him greatly. So when he saw Luo Shu just now, he was particularly surprised.
“Professor Shen, long ti no see!” Luo Shu smiled, reaching out to shake hands with Professor Shen.
“Luo Shu, I have been researching a virus recently, it’s a pity you can’t witness it.” Professor Shen said with so regret. If Luo Shu wasn’t pregnant, he would certainly have invited her to join the research team.
“What kind of virus?” Luo Shu asked with a smile. She was impressed by Professor Shen’s passion for dicine. He once stayed awake for three days and nights researching a virus, without drinking even a drop of water. No matter how people tried to persuade him, he refused to leave and eventually fainted and had to be helped out.
“Not long ago, in a small border town in Liao Province, there was a small epidemic outbreak. The virus in those plague patients ca from bites of green-colored mosquitoes. Although prevention has been figured out, this kind of virus is quite difficult to cure, and I’m working on researching it right now.” Had it not been for his daughter’s wedding, he would definitely not have left his lab.
“It must be the Green-blooded Poisonous Mosquito,” Luo Shu imdiately recognized the type of mosquito from Professor Shen’s description.
Hearing this, Professor Shen’s eyes lit up, and he quickly sat down next to Luo Shu, “I’ve checked the literature, but couldn’t find any information about this kind of mosquito, do you know how to cure the virus?” In his quest to study the virus, he had almost scoured the library for books related to mosquitoes.
