Xiao Cheng, who was so magnificent in the French Concession, always had a happy life, and the phone calls and gift lists of congratulations came one after another.
This lively atmosphere reached a climax a month later when the Cheng family’s young master reached a full moon banquet.
‘Mr. Xiao Cheng’ posted wedding invitations and invited relatives and friends.
On that day, "Mr. Xiao Cheng" booked the huge Chunfeng Deyi Building, Juxian Building and Hongyun Building to make a full moon for parents and children.
On that day, Mr. Tande, Special Assistant to the Police Director of the French Concession, congratulated on behalf of His Excellency Fergeson, senior management of major police stations in the French Concession, representatives of the Public and Directors Bureau of the French Concession, as well as many senior officials, ladies, young ladies and ladies in Shanghai gathered in the Spring Breeze Desire Building.
On that day, people ran on land and swim in the water. Many friends from the world who were usually too shabby to be shabby came in person or sent representatives to gather at the Qixi Building. If there were those who could not come, the gift list would be a little bit thicker, and the police room would have released a private wind, "Long live the peace today, all friends, and no one would be arrested."
On that day, Hongyunlou hosted "Mr. Xiao Cheng"'s business partners and some other friends.
As the saying goes, there are nobles when talking and laughing, and there are great men, and there are barons when they come and go.
Mr. Xiao Cheng also set up 9981 tables of water mats in his former residence Yandeli. Once someone comes to congratulate him, even if it is just a blessing, he can get two meat buns and drink a sip of hot soup.
People in Shanghai rushed to tell each other that they were greedy for money and lustful. Xiao Cheng from the fish village always let out water, and even if he was suffocated, he would eat more of him.
In addition, Mr. Xiao Cheng also held a banquet at Licha Hotel and grandly welcomed foreign friends who came to congratulate him.
Spring breeze and delightful building.
The baby who was just over the moon was white and tender, very cute.
Bai Ruolan Tingting, wearing a purple-red cheongsam, is independent, and has a bit of maternal beauty.
The young master of Cheng's family, who had been fed by the nurse, fell asleep. Bai Ruolan hugged her son and showed her face, then hugged her son back upstairs.
Most of the wives, ladies, and little kids on the houses of relatives and friends who are close to each other.
The teacher's wife He Xuelin, Xiu Yuman, He Guan's mother, Mrs. He, Tang Xiaoye's mother, Mrs. Fang, and Lu Dazhang's wife and children are also there.
Everyone talked to Bai Ruolan, and drank the young master of Cheng's family.
"Have you given your nickname?" asked a wife.
"Called sesame." Bai Ruolan said with a smile, "I really wanted to eat sesame cakes on the day of giving birth. Later I realized that I just like to smell the fragrance of sesame cakes on the sesame cakes."
"No," He Xuelin hugged the little sesame and said with a smile, "and then when she talked about the child's nickname, Ruolan blurted out 'seeds'."
"This name is good, it sounds nice and easy to remember." Someone said.
"The sesame seeds bloom gradually! A good name!" said a wife with a smile.
"This is a good way to name it." A wife with a big belly said happily: "At that time, when I give birth, if I want to eat glutinous rice cake, it will be called glutinous rice cake. If I want to eat glutinous rice cake, it will be called glutinous rice, which is both nice and interesting."
"What if I want to eat pork head?" a familiar lady joked.
Everyone laughed, and the air was filled with a breath of joy.
...
Xiu Yuman was holding a kraft paper bag in her hand, which contained dried melon seeds and fruits. She slowly turned to a table near the window in the corner of the wall, sat down, and enjoyed everyone's chatting and laughing while eating snacks.
"Sister Yuman." Tang Xiaoye came over and took a dried fruit from Xiu Yuman's hand to eat it. The two girls started chatting.
"The Japanese are going to hold the so-called New Year charity conference in the near future." Xiu Yuman whispered.
"New Year's Charity Conference?" Tang Xiaoye asked, spitting out plum core.
"Some senior Japanese figures in Shanghai are preparing to visit orphanages in orphanages, and Japanese representatives donated money and materials." Xiu Yuman said, "A large number of reporters will take photos and report to promote the so-called goodwill of Japan and China."
"Despicable and shameless." Tang Xiaoye sneered.
"Yes, the Japanese tried to create fake news to deceive the League of Nations, whitewash the peace and cover up their aggression." Xiu Yuman nodded.
"Look at these noble ladies wearing gold and silver, heavy makeup, and wives, aren't they just drunk and dreaming of death?" Tang Xiaoye glanced at the people around Bai Ruolan, looked at the smiling faces, shook her head and said.
"You're not scolding Aunt Fang and my mother." Xiu Yuman knocked Tang Xiaoye on the head, "Don't look at the problem so superficially. Also, remember, don't show your inner attitude to anyone in public."
"Yeah." Tang Xiaoye nodded, then gently hit Xiu Yuman to show his counterattack.
"The organization ordered us to act, expose the enemy's invasion, resist and destroy this conference," said Xiu Yuman.
...
At this moment, I heard a cheer from the children.
"I've grown a kite."
"Second sister, look at my kite." Yang Ximei downstairs looked up and saw Tang Xiaoye, and shouted happily.
This is the "Kite" festival gift prepared by Mr. Xiao Cheng for his son's full moon wine. Sixty-six children gathered kites together, and the kites were filled with blessings and pleasing words.
Xiaobao and the third lady of the Fang family are among the children who are flying kites.
At night, lights were hung on the kite, including the flying cannon, meteor fairy child lamp, light and sound, which was very exciting.
On the street, there were gongs and drums, and a big show was singing, which was very lively.
"Xiao Cheng" was so happy that Lin'er's full moon banquet was spent in the fun of the guests and hosts. The citizens of the French Concession rarely got benefits from "Xiao Cheng". At the worst, they also saw the Western scene and drank hot soup.
Some people with good luck have their stomachs filled in this chaotic world. Many people touched their stomachs and sighed with satisfaction while cursing Xiao Cheng, who would not die well sooner or later.
...
It was getting late and some guests who came from afar were not at the right time to return. Mr. Xiao Cheng arranged a proper place for the guests.
After the banquet, Xiao Cheng, who was slightly drunk, also visited the rooms of some important guests, exchanged greetings and thanked him for coming.
"Beware, don't let anyone get close." Cheng Qianfan whispered when he arrived at the door of a VIP guest room.
"Don't worry, Brother Fan, it's already arranged." Haozai said in a low voice.
Cheng Qianfan nodded.
The door was knocked.
"Boss Xu, it's just a full moon. I didn't expect that it would alarm your big driver." Cheng Qianfan clasped his fists with his hands and smiled.
"My eldest nephew, Man Yue, Xu has to come in person whatever he says." Boss Xu laughed.
The door was closed.
Boss Xu listened vigilantly against the door.
"There are all my people outside, don't worry." Cheng Qianfan lit a cigarette and threw the cigarette box directly to the other party. "What happened? Is it so that Brother Sheng suddenly arrived in Shanghai?"
When I learned that Sheng Shuyu suddenly arrived in Shanghai and appeared near today's full moon banquet.
The guy secretly found Haozai and contacted him through Haozai. Cheng Qianfan was shocked and secretly scolded Sheng Shuyu for being reckless. At the same time, he couldn't help but worry that if there were no extremely important things, Sheng Shuyu would never contact him through such a dangerous way.
"What happened." Sheng Shuyu said with an extremely serious expression.
