The full moon banquet is ant to give the two little babies their nas, and as the loving grandfather of Ah Jin and Ah Yin, this arduous yet glorious task naturally fell on his shoulders.
After a few rounds of drinks, soone promptly asked about the newborn’s nas.
Xia Yuan, beaming with pride, handed Ah Jin in his arms to his son Xia Zheng and then squinted cheerfully, saying, "Thank you all for attending today, the nas for my children have been decided, the elder will be nad Ye and the younger Sheng."
Xia Ye and Xia Sheng, both nas symbolizing the hope for the children’s future success, were imdiately praised by the guests, who raised their glasses to celebrate.
Xia Yuan’s face was full of smiles, joyfully toasting with the guests.
Lin Yuan was also very satisfied with the children’s nas, gladly accepting the congratulations from the ladies.
Because she was breastfeeding, Lin Yuan couldn’t drink alcohol, and having just co out of confinent, she couldn’t consu anything cold. To accommodate her, no such beverages were prepared at the ladies’ table.
But this didn’t dampen the ladies’ spirits at all since Lin Yuan had previously instructed Shopkeeper Liu to prepare delicious milk tea.
After boiling the black tea, pure milk was added, and finally, it was seasoned with various spices.
To make the milk even smoother, Lin Yuan also advised Shopkeeper Liu to prepare so fine-sh gauze for filtering.
The milk had the fragrance of milk and the freshness of tea, along with various other spice flavors, making this milk tea truly irresistible. As expected, when the milk tea was served, it was imdiately adored by the ladies.
Since there were quite a few children at the banquet, Lin Yuan also had the kitchen prepare so taro balls to be added into the milk, along with sugar and osmanthus, making a fragrant and sweet taro ball milk tea.
Too much tea is not good for children, especially in winter, where drinking juice makes it easier to catch a cold.
But with the taro ball milk tea, it completely saved the children who would otherwise only drink plain water; they could eat and drink, and the taro balls were sweet and smooth, truly delicious.
Not only the children, but even the adults were attracted by these smooth taro balls, not to ntion Xu Muqing, who ate three whole bowls.
If it weren’t for Yan Ruchun’s firm restraint, she might have skipped als today and only eaten taro balls to fill her stomach!
This was the first ti Lin Yuan t Yan Ruchun after getting married. It was hard to talk with so many people around, but now, everyone was eating, and she didn’t need to entertain anyone, which provided a good opportunity for the two of them to chat.
"Why... why are you looking at like that?"
Without saying a word, Lin Yuan sat next to Yan Ruchun, squinting with a mysterious smile, making Yan Ruchun’s heart race.
With a sinister laugh, Lin Yuan’s smile was even more unsettling.
But what she said made Yan Ruchun shiver.
She lowered her voice with a grin, "Young Lady Wei and Eldest Young Master Wei seem to have a harmonious bedroom life, judging by Madam’s sweet and happy smile, I can’t help but let my imagination run wild!"
"Lin Yuan!"
Yan Ruchun’s face instantly turned red, wanting to cover Lin Yuan’s mouth.
What kind of occasion was this, talking like that, luckily no one else was around, or she’d have nowhere to hide her face!
"Oh dear, don’t be mad!"
Facing Yan Ruchun’s furious look, Lin Yuan laughed even more wantonly and even started reaching out her hands.
"It’s so warm in this parlor of mine; why is the Eldest Young Lady’s collar turned up so high? Isn’t Madam hot? Oh, Madam’s face is all red, surely you’re hot, better put your collar down and cool off!"
I’d be crazy to listen to you and put my collar down!
Yan Ruchun quickly clutched her collar tightly, not letting Lin Yuan’s ’clutches’ succeed. Her eyes flashed with embarrassnt, but her mouth was firm: "I’m not hot at all, although your parlor is warm, but... I’ve been unwell lately and chilled easily, so I’ll keep it like this!"
Who could believe such a grand excuse?
Lin Yuan definitely didn’t!
With a sly smile, Lin Yuan let go of her collar and turned her attention elsewhere.
"Is the Eldest Young Lady really so cold? Then I’ll have the maid prepare a thicker garnt for you; your clothes look so thin, they surely can’t keep you warm! Soone co..."
