Chapter 2237
Elijah sighed, making the expressions of everyone at the scene somewhat regretful.
Mrs. Du hurriedly pinched his waist, and whispered: “You guys, you really don’t open the old pot or lift the one we have just prepared, saying this she hurried the kids to go in and get ready to eat!”
Elijah sighed: “Oh, Liona is so big. She sees a lot of things better than us. What I say is also from my heart, there is no need to be cautious about norms.”
Liona nodded and said seriously: “Mom, I’m really not angry or uncomfortable about this at least this time, so you don’t need to be too sensitive.”
Old Mrs. Du looked surprised: “Liona, Zynn has been hiding it from you for so many years, are you not angry at all?”
Liona said earnestly: “I am not angry, but feel relieved.”
Elijah smiled and said: “Good thing! It is good to be free! To be honest, for so many years, Dad has always felt that you are unhappy. Now that you can come out, Dad is happy for you!”
Liona nodded seriously and smiled slightly: “Thank you, Dad!”
Elijah laughed and beckoned hurriedly: “Walk around, eat elite cuisine! Your three brothers will accompany me for two drinks for a while!”
As the son of Du’s family, Renel nodded without hesitation and said: “Good dad! Our three brothers will accompany you for a few drinks tonight!”
Lionaping, Liona’s sister Lionaping, also said with a busy smile: “Dad, is there any red wine at home? We three sisters will also accompany you to drink some!”
The sixth child Lionamei smiled and said, “That’s great, Dad, my eldest sister, and my second sister will accompany you!”
Elijah was immediately happy and smiled heartily: “Okay! Your three sisters did not return on New Year’s Eve, so we will treat it as the New Year today!”
Lionamei hurriedly said: “Dad, we want to come with you during the Chinese New Year, but you can’t let anything…”
Elijah said seriously: “You are married to the Shen family and you are the daughter-in-law of the Shen family. You should spend the New Year with your in-laws. The same is true for your two sisters. This is the rule. All three of your brothers will accompany me and your mother for the New Year. If your three sisters also come, they will say that the old man Du is ignorant and only thinks about his own home.”
Lionamei hurriedly said: “I know Dad, I’ll talk to Silong Shen, and I’ll be back with you next New Year’s Eve.”
Elijah smiled and said: “Let’s talk about it then, look at Willson Shen’s meaning, if he is unwilling, don’t force it.”
Afterward, Du’s three sons and three daughters strolled to the dining room with a pair of elderly people.
In the dining room at this time, the chef at home has put a beautiful brass pot on the table. In the middle of the pot, there is a green flame of charcoal, and a pot of clear soup is boiled outside. The table is already full of fresh cuts, All kinds of lamb.
Eastcliff people are very particular about eating mutton. Basically, they don’t eat mutton rolls prepared by machines in hot pot restaurants. They eat pure and fresh hand-cut mutton.
Hand-cut mutton is very particular. According to different parts, mutton has various names, such as upper brain meat, tenderloin, large three-pronged, small three-pronged, and cucumber strips.
Different meats have different cutting methods, different sizes, and thicknesses, and there are many sayings.
The Du family seldom show off their wealth and live a life of the extravagant and wasteful elite, but they are very particular people, they are not about pomp and price, but about taste and essence.
Take food as an example, the Du family’s mouths are more than one.
The fried oil cake at the entrance will not be greasy for a family for ten years, but once they change to poorer craftsmanship, even if the difference is minimal, they will find it difficult to swallow.
Mr. Du has no bad habits all his life, he just loves to smoke.
Chapter 2238
He especially likes to smoke a cigarette produced by a cigarette factory in southern Yunnan.
After the old man smoked for twenty years, the cigarette factory’s technology and production line improved, the formula was upgraded, and the cigarette paper and filter material were changed.
Everyone felt that the improved product was more exquisite and higher-grade than before, and the taste was not much worse, but Mr. Du just felt that the taste was not right and couldn’t adapt.
Later, because of this, he even fell ill.
When the old man’s subordinates heard that the old man was sick and hospitalized, they made a special trip to visit him.
When they asked about the cause, they learned that the old man turned out to be suffering from the taste of the cigarettes he had smoked for 20 years, so they simply made a phone call and asked the cigarette factory to reopen the old production line that had been dismantled and ready to be scrapped, just for the old man. People who produce the original cigarettes can be regarded as curing the old man’s heart disease.
However, the old man also felt guilty for using the privilege. He specifically asked his second son, Lionayang, to run to the cigarette factory, verified all the costs of reopening the cigarette factory’s production line, and then paid for it all out of his own pocket. This is regarded as accepting the privilege with peace of mind.
In fact, the children of the Du family have inherited the father’s exquisiteness.
The more exquisite, the more refined you live.
Therefore, the family not only has high academic qualifications and strong abilities but also inherits the traditional virtues of gentleness, courtesy, frugality, and concession.
At this time, the Du family was sitting around the table, eating the elite cuisine and drinking wine. The eight of them had a lively chat, and they all seemed to be in a very good mood.
At first, everyone was worried that Liona’s mood would be lower.
Unexpectedly, Liona’s whole state is extremely relaxed and comfortable.
Everyone around here is close relatives, and they can see that her ease and comfort is not the result of the performance, so they are completely relieved.
The old couple is in a particularly good mood. In the past few years, the six children have started a family one after another. No matter which one they look at individually, they all have a very good, even impeccable, but they have always loved Liona.
This is mainly because they have always known that Liona has loved Changying for so many years to no avail. Later, after Changying’s wedding, she decided to marry Zynn, which was really impulsive and outrageous.
The night before Liona’s marriage, she held the old lady and cried all night, while her sister Lionaping and Lionamei were with them, and they felt distressed.
At that time, Liona wanted to persuade her to repent of her marriage because she felt sorry for her, but she did not agree with her life and death.
After so many years of marriage, although Zynn is very fond of Liona, only Liona’s family can tell that she has always been unhappy.
Especially after Changying’s accidental death, she became even more taciturn, and even started to eat less and lost interest in religious ceremonies, and became a commoner at home.
But now, everyone can see that Liona is really relieved.
The old man Elijah remembered that Liona was going to Aurous Hill, so he asked, “Liona, how long do you plan to stay in Aurous Hill this time?”
Liona thought for a while and said, “Dad, how long will I stay? I don’t know now, just stay and see.
Elijah asked again: “Who will accompany you?”
Liona said: “Zhifei and Zhiyu are with me.”
Elijah nodded: “The old house in Aurous Hill has been very well maintained. You have not been there for many years. You can live there for a few days. If there is nothing wrong with your mother, I will also go to Aurous Hill in two days. In a few days, Eastcliff will be too dry in winter, and your mother had said that she wanted to go to Jiangnan for a few days.”
