The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise
Chapter 551 Full Moon Banquet for Shen Jiarou's Two Children
In late spring, farmers have green rice seedlings everywhere in the fields, green corn seedlings in the soil, and mostly green leafy vegetables in their yards.
Late spring is a time of great hope and also one of expectation, with sowing in spring, nurturing in summer, and harvesting in autumn.
Shen Jiarou stood in the field and looked around: "Auspicious snow means a good harvest. Maybe this year will be a good year for harvest."
Nanny He smiled slightly: "That should be it, Princess. We have to go back to the county tomorrow. Do we have anything else to do?"
Shen Jiarou thought about it carefully and decided to pay tribute to the original body's parents.
"Prepare incense, candles, food, wine, paper money, cakes and flowers."
Nanny He looked at Shen Feimo behind her.
"Go get ready."
Shen Feimo glanced at Shen Jiarou, then nodded and left.
On a slope, Shen Jiarou stood silently, not knowing what she was thinking.
Nanny He saw that her princess had been silent for a long time and reminded her.
"Princess."
Shen Jiarou stepped forward, took the three burning incense sticks from Xu Zhi's hand, and stood in front of the grave.
Shen Jiarou: I am burning incense and worshipping you today. I hope you will have money to spend in the afterlife.
She bowed silently, and then it was Jiang Ruofan's turn. After all, he was still the son-in-law in name.
No one in this world knew about Shen Jiarou's rebirth. More than twelve years had passed, and even she herself often forgot about it.
After leaving the graves of his previous parents, Jiang Ruofan helped Shen Jiarou back to the familiar Shen family courtyard. During this time, Shen Jiarou remained silent. Everyone thought she was emotional and no one took the initiative to disturb her quiet silence.
The Qin family brought food, bedding, clothes, shoes and socks for Qin Zhijing.
On the second day, the Shen family courtyard returned to its usual tranquility, and the Qin family also temporarily enjoyed peace.
Inside the carriage, Aunt Zheng, Qin Wu Yue'er, and Huo Xiangxiang were riding in the same carriage with Shen Jiarou, Nanny He, and Zheng Shutong.
Aunt Zheng lifted the curtain and looked at the green fields that were getting farther and farther away, with a sigh in her heart.
"Aunt Zheng, are you reluctant?"
She nodded gently: "I am a little reluctant."
Shen Jiarou raised her eyes to look out the car window and spoke softly.
"I'll be back after a while."
Wu Yueer comforted her mother-in-law: "Yes, mother, we will come back after attending the full moon celebrations for the two children."
Huo Xiangxiang was afraid that her mother-in-law's mood would affect Shen Jiarou, so she quickly spoke out to comfort her.
"Yes, mother, we just went to play in the county town and then came back."
Aunt Zheng reached out and patted the hands of her two daughters-in-law, nodding in a kind voice.
"Well, time flies. Both of Yi Yi's children are one month old."
Wu Yueer echoed, "That's right. We both have sons and daughters now. We must be very happy in the future."
Faced with her sudden blessing, Shen Jiarou smiled gently.
"Thank you, second sister-in-law. I also wish your family will have many children and grandchildren, and live in peace and prosperity!"
Wu Yue'er and Huo Xiangxiang looked at each other happily. The educated Yi Yi was simply better at speaking than them.
On the day of the full moon banquet, everyone in the Qin family helped, including the three brothers Qin Zhifan, Qin Zhiqian, and Qin Zhiyong from the academy.
"Look, the second and third young masters are so cute."
"Yes, it is pink and looks like an apple."
"Who can not love a chubby boy?"
"Who says it's not true? Otherwise, it would have to be the princess who would say, look at the two young masters, they are white and chubby, and they look cute and handsome."
Listening to everyone's praise, Shen Jiarou also showed a gentle maternal smile. As a mother, she was also very happy that her child was liked by everyone.
At this time, Jiang Ruofan was receiving the county magistrate Xing Tian and his legal advisor Yun Fengzhou.
"Master Xing, Master Yun, thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to attend our sons' full moon banquet."
The thirty-year-old Xing Tian responded politely: "You are so polite, my dear Prince Consort!"
Yun Fengzhou also smiled heartily: "You are joking, Prince Consort. It is an honor for me to be invited to your mansion."
Jiang Ruofan still feels comfortable when facing someone who speaks nicely and makes people feel comfortable.
"You two, please come in!"
At the auspicious time of the full moon, Shen Jiarou and Jiang Ruofan came to the front hall, each holding a child, and the women of each family followed.
Jiang Ruofan and Shen Jiarou smiled at each other and looked at everyone who was speaking.
"Thank you all for taking the time to attend our two sons' full-month celebration. We will now hold the full-month head-shaving ceremony."
The full-moon banquet was an important celebration ceremony in ancient times. Due to the emphasis on population growth and limited medical conditions in ancient society, a baby surviving one month was considered an important milestone.
In ancient times, babies would undergo a hair-shaving ceremony when they were one month old, usually retaining a small portion of hair to symbolize wisdom and longevity.
Feng Jingyun picked up the shaving tools and handed them respectfully to the Thirteenth Prince. As the Thirteenth Uncle, he personally shaved the Second Young Master's hair.
"Haohao, your uncle Thirteenth will shave your hair for you, be good." The second young master's name is Zihao, Jiang Zihao.
Then, under everyone's attention, Uncle Hei took a new shaving tool and walked towards the third young master Jiang Ziheng. He was not only representing himself, but also Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty.
As early as after the children were born, Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty wrote a letter to Hei Shu personally, asking him to shave the hair of one of the children on his behalf to express his heart as the imperial grandfather.
The second young master Jiang Zihao was the one that the Thirteenth Prince had booked a long time ago. He was going to personally shave the full-moon hair of his fourth sister's child. After all, he had not been able to shave any of the first two, which made him sad for several years.
Jiang Ziwen had his hair shaved by Prince Rong, while Jiang Ziyi had her hair shaved by Shen Jiarou and Jiang Ruofan. Prince Rong happened to take the opportunity to shave Jiang Ziwen's hair in advance, which made Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty depressed for a long time.
After the shaving ceremony, Zhen Luosang, Yuansuan Shuang, Nami, Musiqi, Rezana, Kaier, together with Shen Feimo and Zharmu distributed red eggs, red longan fruits and other gifts to the guests at the banquet.
"Thank you girl!"
Elemental Frost responded politely: "You're welcome!"
It was Zarmu's turn to give Xingtian red eggs, red longan and other gifts. Xingtian, who was always aloof, thanked him politely with a smile.
"Thank you!"
"Master Xing, you are too polite!"
When it came time to deliver the rice for blessing, as the Empress Dowager, the Emperor and Empress, Emperor Wenzong of Tang, and the wife of Marquis Yong'an were not there, the Thirteenth Prince, Uncle Hei, and the Qin family delivered the rice for blessing instead.
Because on the day of the full moon, the mother's family will prepare children's supplies, such as new clothes, shoes and hats, etc., and give them to their grandson.
The Thirteenth Prince took the blessing rice and gave it to Jiang Ruofan behind him: "I wish my little nephews to grow up healthily, have a bright future, and be safe and smooth!"
The guests applauded enthusiastically. It was totally worthwhile to attend the full moon banquet for Princess Yongkang's legitimate son. The mansion was full of nobles. In addition to Princess Yongkang and her husband Jiang Ruofan, there were also Yuan Shundi's biological son, the Thirteenth Prince, Yuan Shundi's confidant Hei Shu, the eldest princess and her husband's eldest son, Prince Su, as well as the court physicians and many other nobles. In Anren County, this was a great honor and a once-in-a-century opportunity.
Su Wenmao, one of the princess's relatives, also presented him with the blessing rice that he had specially selected from the rice shop outside. When the shopkeeper learned that he was the eldest son of the princess's family and also the prince, he happily gave him another half pound of the finest and carefully selected blessing rice.
"Fourth aunt, fourth uncle, this is the rice that Wenmao prepared for his two younger brothers."
Jiang Ruofan and Shen Jiarou smiled at each other, Jiang Wu stepped forward and respectfully took it and stepped back. After Uncle Hei, Doctor Liu and others had delivered the rice, the rice celebration was successfully concluded.
