Chapter 123 - 0123 Happy Birthday 3_1
After marrying Lu Jiang, Feng Qingxue saw the old photos of the Lu Family. She found out that Lu Jiang’s elder brother bore a striking resemblance to Lu Jiang, especially their eyes and eyebrows. The only difference was that the elder brother was not as tall as his younger brother. Lu Tianjun resembled their father, while Lu Tianzhi took after their mother, giving Lu Tianjun and Lu Jiang an uncanny father-son resemblance.
Back then, Lu Tianjun once told her that he regarded his uncle as towering as his father.
Now, he and his younger brother treated Feng Qingxue as their mother, constantly clad in lively smiles under their new scarfs all day long.
Seeing his grandsons’ radiant faces, Lu’s father became increasingly aware of Feng Qingxue’s contributions to their family, which far outweighed what his family had given her. Therefore, he was eagerly looking forward to his son’s return to complete the wedding and transfer the family possessions he had been keeping hidden to her.
Perhaps only in this way, Lu’s father could feel that his family had returned her favor.
Feng Qingxue didn’t mind at all. She was capable and willing to contribute more without nitpicking. Compared to the treasures that Lu’s father had bestowed upon her, her contributions were insignificant.
After a busy afternoon, all the dumpling fillings were finally wrapped.
Seeing the leftover dough in the basin and the unfinished dumpling wrappers on the board, Feng Qingxue kneaded them back together, chopped some spring onions, took out the lard from the oil jar, made a few green onion pancakes for dinner for Lu’s father and his grandsons, and stored the stewed pork knuckle along with its soup in a clay pot for the Lu family to enjoy during the New Year.
"Uncle Lu, Yunyun and I are leaving. Starting from tomorrow, we probably won’t be able to come here for about half a month."
To the older generation, the New Year starts from the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month and ends on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
The food brought by Feng Qingxue was enough for the three generations to eat for half a month. She also prepared a lot of grain, considering this point.
