Chapter 499 Mid-Autumn Festival

It's the fourteenth day of the eighth lunar month, the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival, early in the morning.

The rising sun slowly rises in the east, and a golden light shines on the earth.

Meishan Town Railway Station, the largest marshalling station of the Changniu Railway, is already bustling with activity this morning. Here, batches of out-of-town guests who come to visit and inspect are being sent off.

For this reason, the autonomous region government hung several special VIP carriages at the back of the train to transport everyone safely to Changxing Railway Station, and then left separately via the waterway.

Chen Tianhua and Xu Yunyuan made a special trip to accompany Liu Yufang back to Shanghai, and they also wanted to take a look at their newly born son.

Along the way, watching Xu Yunyuan and Liu Yufang being affectionate, Chen Tianhua knew in his heart that these two women had become good sisters in Shanghai for more than half a year.

Starting from Meishan Town early in the morning, the journey was seamless, arriving in Shanghai at five o'clock that afternoon, and still being able to catch dinner in time. This made Liu Yufang marvel at the advanced railway transportation and amphibious transportation methods.

Chen Tianhua and Xu Yunyuan were both anxious to see their children, so Liu Yufang naturally accompanied them. She also wanted to see their nephew they had never met.

When they arrived at the Xu Mansion, Xu's father and Xu's mother made excuses to avoid seeing him. They were angry with Chen Tianhua and were ashamed to show their faces in front of outsiders.

The three of them went directly to the wet nurse and finally saw the baby, who was more than forty days old.

The three people were overjoyed and took turns taking the baby back. They didn't stop until they woke him up crying and handed him back to the nurse.

"This child is so cute. His eyes are like clouds, and his forehead and outline are like Huazhi. Has he got a name?"

Liu Yufang was very envious. Somehow, she and Chen Qimei had been married for six years and still had not gotten pregnant and had a child. She felt very disappointed.

"Oh, the name is ready. My name is Mingren, and my birth name is Xiaojie." Xu Yunyuan glanced at Chen Tianhua and said with a smile.

This name was chosen by Chen Tianhua when Xiaojie was not born when he left Meishan Town to suppress bandits. If a boy is born, he will be called Chen Mingren, and if the baby girl is born, he will be called Chen Mingying.

Li Shuzhen gave birth to a boy and a girl. The eldest son was named Chen Mingcheng and the eldest daughter was named Chen Mingquan. Xu Yunyuan and Liu Yufang both knew this.

"Well, the name is quite loud, which is good." Liu Yufang nodded and said, "I want to be Xiaojie'er's godmother, what do you two think?"

Chen Tianhua glanced at Xu Yunyuan and said happily:

"Sister Yufang is Jie'er's godmother. Of course it is a dream. We are usually busy with government affairs. In terms of education, there is a huge gap compared to Sister Yufang."

"It's better to choose a different day than to hit it. Come to my place for a drink tonight and let the British people be happy together." Liu Yufang was naturally very happy.

"Oh well."

After speaking, the three people took a carriage to Renheli, Xinzha District.

Chen Qimei and Liu Yufang's house is a small French-style mansion with a garden. It is named "Scholar's House". It sounds sophisticated, but it is completely different from their current career.

Seeing Liu Yufang arriving with Chen Tianhua and Xu Yunyuan, Chen Qimei was overjoyed and naturally received her warmly.

The four of them drank wine and talked loudly in the literati's house, and they stopped after getting drunk.



The next day was the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15th. Chen Tianhua originally wanted to stay in Shanghai for the festival to spend time with his mother and son, but it was a shame.

But Xu Yunyuan was still rational and advised him to go back to Hangzhou, where his real wife was. We couldn't break the rules and regulations set by our ancestors.

However, everything should not be done improperly, and Xu's father and Xu's mother did not want to see each other. The situation was embarrassing, so Chen Tianhua decided to say goodbye to Xu Yunyuan and his son, and hurried back to Hangzhou by the Feiyu speedboat.

Since it was already noon when we set off, when Chen Tianhua rushed back to Hangzhou, it was already late and night was falling.

He rushed directly to the admiral's mansion on the south bank of the West Lake and saw his family's yacht on the pier, which showed that Li Shuzhen had already arrived with her children.

In previous years, Li Shuzhen spent the Mid-Autumn Festival with her parents, and this year was certainly no exception.

The only thing that surprised her was that her husband Chen Tianhua was late in arriving. Seeing that it was getting late and the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet was about to begin, she had no choice but to bring her children over to visit her parents, brothers and sisters.

Chen Tianhua went home in early March this year, saying that he was going to launch a campaign to suppress bandits and clear the countryside in the Guangde Mountains, which might take a long time.

Unexpectedly, he still hadn't returned home by the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, and it was almost half a year later. He had not been seen, leaving her at home worried about his safety.

When Chen Tianhua rushed to the front hall of the mansion, the Mid-Autumn Festival dinner had already begun.

Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and all the family members are here. Li Cunzhi is sitting at the top in casual clothes. On his left and right are the second wife of the Li family, Zhong Shi, and the third wife, Bai Suling.

The third son of the Li family, Li Pinzhang, his Japanese wife, two sons and one daughter all came.

There are also the third lady of the Li family, Li Shuying, who came back from abroad last year, and her husband Tang Jishao. Their son did not come with them, so they spent the holidays with their grandparents at the Tang family's house.

Of course, Li Shuzhen, her son, and her eight-month-old daughter all came.

His son Chen Mingcheng was three years old this year. When he saw his father coming, he climbed down from the other side seat, quickly ran to Chen Tianhua and threw himself into his arms, "Dad, why are you here? Mom and Grandpa."

They have been waiting for you for a long time..."

After saying that, he asked Chen Tianhua to hug him.

"Little Tiger, be good, daddy wants to meet your grandparents first and hold you in his arms later!" Chen Tianhua knelt down and stroked his son's little face and said softly.

"Well...then go and meet your grandparents." The three-year-old Xiaohu seemed to be very sensible.

"My son-in-law pays homage to his father-in-law and mother-in-law, and pays homage to his second aunt. Hua Zhi had something to do and was delayed on the road. He came back late. Please forgive me, three seniors!"

Chen Tianhua's vague words could only deceive the female relatives sitting at home. Li Cunzhi knew everything about it, but he just didn't say anything.

However, seeing Chen Tianhua rushing back from Shanghai in a hurry, he felt relieved a lot, which meant that his son-in-law still understood the importance.

Li Cunzhi is a man with deep knowledge of the city. It should be said that he knows clearly what Chen Tianhua did in the Meiguang Autonomous Region. He is tight-lipped and does not allow others to spread rumors.

For vigorous men, the body needs the company of a woman, which is good for reducing stress and regulating emotions. Li Cunzhi can completely understand this.

However, Chen Tianhua asked Xu Yunyuan to return to Shanghai to secretly give birth to a child. This made Li Cunzhi quite unhappy.

Those who have good intentions still think that Mr. Li is unreasonable.

In fact, with Chen Tianhua's achievements today, taking a concubine is not a problem. Li Cunzhi himself has no objections, but Li Shuzhen has a strong personality, and his mother Bai Suling may not agree.
