Ji Mingyao is a person who is very afraid of trouble. Even if everyone dresses up like this, she doesn't want to change.
Mrs. Chi noticed her embarrassment and hurriedly came out to smooth things over.
"Yuan'er's eyesight is stupid. This green mountain and green water dress is a new style for the season. Mingyao is dressed very elegantly today."
Someone gave the steps, and Ji Mingyao came down happily.
"Thank you for the compliment, Madam. I prefer to be more plain, as long as Madam doesn't feel like I'm being neglected."
Mrs. Chi smiled and said, "How could that happen?"
She motioned to the maid beside her to bring something.
"Today Mingyao becomes sworn sworn brother to my Yuan'er, and from now on she will be my daughter. This is my intention, what do you think?"
She picked up the half piece of jade on the tray and explained: "This jade is a family heirloom of mine and will be passed on to my children. Yuan'er has half a piece and you have half a piece."
Ji Mingyao looked at the unique color of the jade, and there seemed to be a green hairspring in the transparent white.
"Madam, this is too precious, I can't accept it."
Zheng Kejun reminded from the side: "Master, this is a rule, you must accept it."
Mrs. Chi also meant this, so she handed over the jade pendant and motioned for her to accept it.
When Ji Mingyao saw this, she knew she couldn't refuse.
"Thank you, Mrs. Chi."
"Hey, how can I call her Mrs. Chi now? I should call her godmother."
Zheng Kejun was on the sidelines, cheering and cheering.
Ji Mingyao, who was not afraid of anything, felt a little shy now, blushed slightly, and cried out in embarrassment.
"Godmother."
When Mrs. Chi heard this, she smiled with relief.
The first step was completed, Zheng Kejun immediately arranged for people to enter the house.
"The house is ready. Mrs. Chi and Yuan'er come in quickly."
Mrs. Chi sat in the first seat, Zheng Kejun stood aside as a witness, and Chi Yuan'er and Ji Mingyao stood below.
The master of ceremonies on the side recited the words of sworn vows.
The smile on Chi Yuan'er's face has never left her face until now.
After listening to the oath, she whispered to Ji Mingyao: "Sister Ji, are you going to call me aunt in the future?
Then how do we calculate the seniority between me and Master Linggu? My father and Master Linggu were called brothers before, how will we be called in the future?"
She was happily full of questions.
Ji Mingyao had a headache. She had never thought about these issues herself, and they would just discuss them separately.
She knew that Chi Yuan'er was overly excited.
"Yuan'er, calm down."
Chi Yuan'er persuaded herself to calm down, but she was so happy that she didn't know how to calm down.
After finally finishing reciting the oath, it was her turn to serve tea, and she almost turned over the tea cup.
But on the big day, no one would blame her, everyone just looked at each other and smiled.
Ji Mingyao held the tea cup respectfully and was about to kneel down. Mrs. Chi hurriedly supported her and said, "Mingyao, there's no need to kneel down. It's just a formality."
"How is this possible? Since I am sincere, I should serve tea to my godmother according to the rules. There is no need for my godmother to be burdened. This is as it should be."
She was unambiguous about the proper etiquette.
Mrs. Chi was touched by Ji Mingyao's seriousness, so she said no more and waited for Ji Mingyao to bow and take the tea cup.
"Good boy, get up quickly, we will be a family from now on."
When the salute is over, the recognition ceremony is completed.
Ji Mingyao took out two red ropes with peach wood buckles.
"Godmother, Yuan'er, this is the bracelet I made myself. A little bit of thought is disrespectful."
She put it on for both of them.
The peach wood flashed a little blue light, which was too subtle to detect.
"My Chi family gave such a generous gift to their goddaughter, but the gift in return was just two ropes. This is a huge difference."
It was originally a lively and happy scene, but suddenly there was such a violation.
When Chi Zhou learned that Mrs. Chi had brought Chi Yuan'er to recognize her relatives, he immediately came with her people.
He glanced at the red ropes on their wrists with disdain, and said mockingly: "I'm not telling you, sister-in-law, you are too bad at doing business. You give so many gifts, but you have to get a few red fruits in return."
.
A broken rope really looks down on our Chi family."
