Chapter 206: Tying the Blessing Bag
Matriarch Lu recalled how she had met Qiao Nian at the temple. Her expression grew gentler as she said softly, "Young Nian, if you hadn’t reminded me last time, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have been able to hold my eldest granddaughter’s birthday banquet this time. You would probably be attending my funeral instead!"
Matriarch Lu coughed. Thinking of the results of the examination, she sighed slightly and continued, "Thank you for making such a beautiful blessing bag for my poor eldest granddaughter. To express our gratitude, we’d like to invite you to have a meal with us today."
"Alright, thank you, Madam Lu." Qiao Nian nodded.
After that, the group arrived at the Lu family’s ancestral hall. This place was dedicated to the ancestors of the Lu family. Incense was burning in the ancestral hall, indicating that the Lu family’s incense offerings would continue indefinitely into the future.
Everyone in the Lu family offered incense one by one. After that, Matriarch Gu and Qiao Nian offered incense to the ancestors of the Gu family.
After offering incense, Matriarch Lu brought everyone to the small courtyard beside the ancestral hall.
This small courtyard was filled with all kinds of plants and flowers, as well as many toys. Qiao Nian didn’t think that this place looked like the mourning hall of the precious daughter of the Lu family. Instead, it looked more like a place that was often inhabited.
Everyone walked into the room, which was furnished very warmly. At a glance, one could tell that this was a style young girls would like.
