Chapter 342 Qingge is back

When setting up the venue, the kitchen was naturally not empty. The chefs invited from the hotel were meticulous and meticulous in their operations. The main dishes, side dishes, pastries, fruits, etc. were all available.

The small courtyard of the Gu Family, which is usually deserted, is bustling now. However, although there are many people, they all perform their duties. Everything is going on in an orderly manner, and no one is making any noise.

And Jiang Chen was in charge of everything at the banquet, his macro-management and deployment ability was perfectly displayed in such a small and delicate banquet arrangement.

Seeing these busy figures suddenly appearing at home, Sister Hui and Sister Mei were a little confused. They went to help in the kitchen and found that the chefs were all busy. I helped build it, but I didn't know what to do. For a while, I got idle, saw Jiang Chen, and asked, "Secretary Jiang, what should we do?"

Jiang Chen said: "You guys rest."

"But..." Sister Hui's face was not very good, "Everyone is busy, and we are the only ones, it's not good."

"Yes," Sister Mei echoed.

Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows, and said in a gentle tone, "You usually work hard, so the secretary specially confessed that today you are allowed to rest."

Sister Hui and Sister Mei were slightly taken aback, "Really?"

"Do I seem to be joking?" After Jiang Chen finished speaking, he went to the kitchen again.

Sister Hui and the others were stunned, looking at the busy figures around them, indeed, they couldn't help much.Before, when they heard that there was going to be a banquet at home, they were still worried about how busy the two of them would be, but they never thought that they didn't have to do anything.

"I have served here for more than ten years, and this is the first time I have held such a grand banquet." Sister Hui sighed as she watched the scene that appeared like a magic trick in front of her.

Sister Mei has not been working here for a long time, she asked in a low voice, "When Professor He lived here, didn't he entertain guests?"

"Except for the big family members of the Gu family coming back for the New Year's Eve every year, there are usually no guests." Sister Hui said in a low voice, "And the secretary likes to be quiet, and he doesn't spend much time at home. He has confessed, declined. As for the banquet, Professor He, naturally he can only keep a low profile."

"It's really different for the same person." Sister Mei sighed again, "The secretary is really kind to this one."

"Professor He and her are incomparable." Sister Hui said, after the two of them get along with Jin Sheng every day, they also like this kind and unassuming hostess more and more.

"Of course." Sister Mei asked suddenly, "Hey, why didn't you see the secretary?"

Sister Hui muttered, "I saw him enter the room and never come out." She said in a low voice, "It's not like you don't know, that guy takes a lunch break every day."

The two looked at each other and smiled, understanding.In this family, as long as Gu Yongchun is at home, he must be there wherever Jin Sheng is. There is not much intimacy between them, but they can feel the indescribable tension in their eyes. emotion.

Sister Mei asked in a low voice: "There are a lot of people in the family today, so I don't know if she will be able to sleep."

"So what if there are too many people? It's not noisy!" Sister Hui said.

Sister Mei laughed softly, "It's me instead, thinking about how many guests there are at night, how can I sleep in the afternoon?"

"She's pregnant, so lethargy is normal," Sister Hui said, "She doesn't take a lunch break, so how can she have the energy to entertain guests at night?"

While the two were chatting with each other, the staff of the private tailor shop came over with a dress.

Since Sheng is still on her lunch break, it is inconvenient for Sister Hui to disturb her.In addition, Jin Sheng had explained before, so Sister Hui helped to take down the dress.

In the bedroom, Jin Sheng was sleeping on his side, his thick and slender eyelashes gently resting on his eyelids, casting a beautiful halo.The sliding door from the bedroom to the study room is currently open, and Gu Yongchun is sitting behind the desk, flipping through documents.When he finished annotating the last document, he looked up and saw the slender figure sleeping on the bed.

Being able to see her figure at a glance, even if she was asleep, made his eyes glow with happiness.His eyes were shallow, and there was a faint smile on his lips. At this moment, he didn't intend to wake her up, but he didn't dare to get up, for fear that the sound of the chair moving would wake her up.

He was silent like this, his eyes moved from her figure to the window of the study room, outside, the grape vines covered the shelves, and the full purple-red grains hung on the branches and leaves, full of joy of harvest, just like his The mood is the same now, and when he thinks about introducing her to the people around him, he can't help getting excited.

Time is ticking away, but as long as he can see her at a glance, to Gu Yongchun, it seems that this time does not pass too long, but there is a kind of quiet and peaceful time.

Jin Sheng is used to lunch breaks, and her biological clock is also very accurate. After sleeping for an hour and a half, she woke up naturally. Her belly was big and heavy. She slept on her side, feeling a little tired. When she supported the bed with her hands When he sat up, he suddenly saw Gu Yongchun sitting in the study behind the sliding door, his eyes met, and there was a slight smile in their eyes.

"Are you awake?" Gu Yongchun walked over to help her put the slippers away.

Looking at the thick stack of documents on the desk, Jin Sheng knew that he didn't take a nap, her neck was too stiff, so she reached out and rubbed it.

Gu Yongchun sat behind her and helped her massage the back of her neck with moderate strength, slowly rubbing from her neck to her shoulders bit by bit.

There is an indelible smile on Jin Sheng's lips.

After Sheng Sheng came out today, she saw that the living room was full of lilies of the valley, the fragrance was overwhelming, the color was clear but elegant, and the layout of the scene was warm but not luxurious, which completely matched her imagination. She looked at it again. Looking at the man beside me, the bottom of my heart is warm, and I feel extremely happy.

It happened that Jiang Chen came in from the outside, and Jin Sheng said to him, "The decoration is very warm, Jiang Chen, thank you for your hard work."

Jiang Chen looked solemn, "The secretary drew the layout sketches, he wrote the plan, and he chose every material. I just arranged these things in place according to his requirements."

Jin Sheng was a little surprised, and looked back at Gu Yongchun, "You?" He is so busy, how can he still have time to do these things?
Our Third Brother Gu raised his eyebrows, but didn't answer, but said to Jiang Chen, "How is the meal preparation going?"

"It's almost there, and the drinks are ready." After Jiang Chen finished speaking, someone called him, and he went out again.

"Third brother, why did you think of using lily-of-the-valley to decorate?" Jin Sheng asked him, lily-of-the-valley is not as delicate as a rose, nor as gorgeous as a peony, but in her opinion, it has a unique kind of beauty.

"Because you like it." Gu Yongchun said.

Jin Sheng was startled, wondering, "How do you know I like lily of the valley?" When I was young, supplies were scarce, and in those days, flowers were rarely seen.She likes lily of the valley because after she went to Danlai and saw so many rich and prosperous flower systems, she fell in love with the simple and fragrant lily of the valley.

Gu Yongchun smiled but did not answer.The last time he went to the Tanlai Palace to attend a dinner party, the banquet hall was filled with flowers, but there was a large clump of lily of the valley in front of her. Normally, the national flower should be placed in front of her, instead of the national flower, lily of the valley was placed. It is enough to show her love for lily of the valley.

"Qingge told you?" Jin Sheng looked at him, but she thought about it again, it seemed that Qingge didn't know her liking for flowers.

Gu Yongchun shook his head, "Guess." After finishing speaking lightly, he walked to the other side of the long dining table with his hands behind his back.

Well!Can you guess this too?Jin Sheng smiled, and before she had time to think about it, she was attracted by the blue and white porcelain tableware. When her slender fingers were holding a plate and looking at it, suddenly, she heard the sound of music. The atmosphere of the whole living room is lively.

It was the style of the tune she liked. When Jin Sheng turned around, he suddenly saw Gu Yongchun standing next to the stereo, adjusting the volume calmly.He remembered her preferences, and at this moment, her heart was warm.

Sister Hui walked to her side, "Jin Sheng, the dress is here."

Jin Sheng turned around, saw the gift box in Sister Hui's hand, and said, "Help me get it to my room."

"Okay," Sister Hui said again, "I just squeezed watermelon juice, and I'll send it to you as well."

"Thank you." Jin Sheng smiled gently.

Sister Hui smiled embarrassingly, "The secretary asked me to juice it, and he even specifically told me to use watermelon that hadn't been chilled to squeeze juice."

After Jin Sheng listened, her heart softened, she turned to look at him, but he was explaining something to Jiang Chen.

When she returned to the bedroom, she suddenly saw the dress she ordered lying quietly in the gift box. When she was about to take it out, she accidentally knocked over the glass next to her with her elbow, and thick watermelon juice spilled out from the mouth of the glass.

Although she was quick and helped the cup in time, the watermelon juice was inevitably spilled on the table. Fortunately, the outside of the gift box was only wet, and the dress was safe and sound.

Jin Sheng took the dress out of the box and put it on the sofa beside her. She first wiped off the watermelon juice with a paper towel, and then went out to find a towel to wipe it off.Before she finished tidying up, Gu Yongchun came in.

"The dress has been delivered?" He saw the big red dress on the sofa.

"Well," she said.

Gu Yongchun picked up the dress and compared it to her, "Take a look."

Well!Is he going to change it for her?Jin Sheng's ears were slightly red, and he reached out to take the dress, "I'll wear it at night." She had a big belly, and she couldn't put on this dress without help, but she didn't want him to see her bulky Bloated body.

"Put it on now." As he spoke, he already took her arm, "I'll help you."

"Don't." She pushed his hand away.

Really unable to hold him back, Jin Sheng had no choice but to say, "Let Sister Hui help me..."

His complexion was not very good, "Sister Hui can see it, but I can't see it?"

Jin Sheng's face was embarrassing, and Gu Yongchun took advantage of her unpreparedness to help her unzip her skirt, revealing her slender and fair back, and a little later, the skirt fell to the ground, barely falling on her instep In the morning, she was already exposed to his sight, her ears blushed, her face turned pale, she covered her chest with her hands, and turned her back to him.

The way she hid slightly made Gu Yongchun raise his eyebrows helplessly. He was carrying the dress, did he put it on from his head or from his feet?For a moment, he didn't know why, so he asked: "Jin Sheng, how should I wear this?"

Well!Jin Sheng's head was full of black lines, he turned his face, and said lightly, "Aren't you good at everything?"

Being choked by her, Gu Yongchun frowned, held up his skirt and looked at it, feeling helpless.

Seeing his useless appearance, Jin Sheng pursed his lips and chuckled, and said, "Unzip the zipper on the back of the skirt first... yes, that's it..." Under her command, he helped her with a slightly clumsy hand Dressed up.

This dress was very beautiful and delicate. It not only accentuated her slender neck, but also covered her pregnant belly, making her look tall and elegant.

Gu Yongchun has never seen her dressed up like this before, a look of amazement flashed across his eyes, he sized her up, raised his eyebrows, and nodded slightly, with a faint smile in his eyes, "Not bad." His Jinsheng is already beautiful and wearable. The beauty exuded after wearing this dress is different from before.

Jin Sheng looked down, then looked at the mirror, and suddenly frowned, "Third Brother, tell me, will it look too grand for me to wear it like this?" I didn't feel it when I tried it on that day, but now, it's so heavy. The red color made her feel a little different from last time, but she couldn't tell exactly what was different for a while.

"For a wedding banquet, you should dress festively." Gu Yongchun said, helping her straighten her skirt.

There was warmth in Jin Sheng's eyes, and he corrected him, "It's a dinner, not a wedding."

Gu Yongchun looked at her, "For others, it's a dinner party, for us, it's a wedding banquet." Of course, when inviting guests, he really meant a dinner party, but in his heart, tonight was their wedding banquet.

Seeing his serious look, Jin Sheng pursed his lips and smiled.Then, she turned around, "Third brother, help me pull down the zipper."

"Pull it down for what?" he asked.

"Take it off."

"Okay, why do you want to take it off?" Gu Yongchun was puzzled.

"It's still early," Jin Sheng explained, "I'll just change it up before the banquet." This dress is made by hand. It's a little hard, I didn't feel it when I tried it last time, but she just felt a little bulky when she put it on.

"Wear it first, and you won't have to change it later," he said.

Jin Sheng frowned slightly, and when he was about to say something, there was a knock on the door, it was Jiang Chen, "Secretary, I need something urgent."

After Gu Yongchun left, Jin Sheng still felt a little strange, so he called Sister Hui to help and changed the dress.

After five o'clock, guests came one after another.

Because it was a small-scale banquet, there were not many guests, including family members, there were less than 30 people.The small courtyard of the Gu family is quite spacious, so it doesn't look crowded.

Gu Ruoqiu and Chief Zhu came here on time, not too early or too late, most of the guests had also arrived, after meeting, she asked, "Third brother, where is my third sister-in-law?"

Her name of third sister-in-law attracted the attention of people around her. It was rumored that Gu Yongchun had remarried, and it was rumored that the wife of the new secretary was actually Secretary Gu's ex-wife. , Naturally, I am quite curious.

Gu Yongchun raised his eyebrows slightly, he came out when there were guests before, at that time, Jin Sheng was also preparing to change his dress, but it has been so long, why hasn't she come out yet? "Ruoqiu, go and have a look, she should be in the room."

Although it was at his own home, and Gu Ruoqiu also went to see it, but Gu Yongchun was still worried, and when chatting with the guests, he looked at the door of the room.After a while, the door opened, and Jin Sheng and Ruo Qiu came out.

Jin Sheng didn't wear that dress, but a straight skirt with light blue sleeves and knee length, and a pair of black flat heels on her feet. Her lower abdomen was slightly protruding. When she came out, her steps were light and her face was With a gentle and gentle smile on her face, even if Gu Ruoqiu was surrounded by a well-dressed Gu Ruoqiu, she still looked not inferior at all. Her elegance and calmness made people look sideways.When they walked through the living room covered with lilies of the valley, it was as if they had stepped out of a painting, attracting everyone's attention.

Gu Yongchun walked towards her and stretched out his hand.

Jin Sheng looked at him and put his right hand in his hand.

He carried her and walked in front of the guests, elegant and calm, with a rare relaxed smile, "Let me introduce to you, this is my wife, Jin Sheng."

Jin Sheng looked at the crowd, slightly raised the corners of her lips, nodded slightly, and smiled lightly. She stood beside him, demure and beautiful. Her protruding belly gave her elegance a bit of maternal tenderness.

The men were fine, with calm faces; but the female relatives whispered in private, admiring her amazing beauty and elegant temperament.

The head of state smiled and jokingly said, "Yongchun, you are the one who keeps quiet. You really have it." He turned his head and looked at Chief Zhu, "Runze, your kid will have another playmate in the future."

"That's right, our family, Wen Chen, is going to be an older brother too." Chief Zhu said with a smile.

The banquet has begun.

Perhaps it was because of the jokes made by the head of state before, or maybe it was because everyone was relieved of the burden and pressure of not being in the administrative center, or maybe it was because they brought the female family members with them. The atmosphere of the whole dinner was very relaxed.The men at the top of the pyramid usually strategize and have power over the world. At this moment, in a romantic atmosphere, they are drinking and chatting, not talking about political affairs.

The female relatives sat together in twos and threes, all of them reserved, because they were not familiar with Jin Sheng, they didn't know what to talk about, after the chatter, most of them dispersed, and some, most of them were comparing quietly in private.

A said: "This temperament, this appearance...then He Shuyun can't even compare with a toe."

B pulled her, "Hush down, He Shuyue is still over there."

A snorted, "What's the matter? It was He Shuyun who shamelessly hooked up with men to have children outside. Could it be that He Shuyue dared to complain to her sister in front of everyone?"

"That's not the case," B said.

"I heard that He Shuyun is dating that man now..." A said.

"Isn't Secretary Gu also married now?" B thinks clearly: "This marriage is divorced, let's all be well."

"I heard from my grandmother that this one is the real match." A said again.

"I've heard that too." B said, "Hey, tell me, Secretary Gu and this one are so affectionate, how could they divorce and marry He Shuyun at that time?"

"Who knows," A said, "However, I heard that it seems that He Shuyun used some means."

"Really?" B said.

……

When He Shuyue came out of the bathroom, she happened to hear their chat. Her face was slightly ill, and she coughed.

A and B turned around and looked at her with a embarrassed expression.

He Shuyue's expression didn't change, she smiled and said, "What are you talking about? So happy?"

A's complexion was not very good, and he said casually, "We are talking, Secretary Gu and his wife are really loving."

He Shuyue let out a heck and echoed, "Yes, it's very affectionate."

"I used to hear from your sister that Secretary Gu was a cold person, but we only found out today that he has such a considerate side. Look at him, he is gentle and considerate to Jin Sheng." A said intentionally.

As if being slapped in the face, He Shuyue was furious, but because of her own will, she didn't dare to get angry, so she could only say bitterly, "Really?"

"Yeah," A said again, "Shuyue, this Xinlei has found her biological father, so it's time for your sister to get married too!"

"I don't know much about her." He Shuyue's face was extremely ugly, and she couldn't stay any longer, "Talk slowly, I'll go over there and have a look."

Looking at He Shuyue's back, B said, "You too, why are you talking about it?"

"I hurt her on purpose," A said frankly, "you don't know, how much embarrassment they gave me in public because they had the support of the Gu family behind them... and that heart bud, who was arrogant and pressed everywhere Our family, Qinlin, robbed her of several chances to perform."

……

The head of state's wife looked at Jin Sheng's belly, with a smile on her round face, "Jin Sheng, when is the due date?"

"Less than three months." Jin Sheng was gentle, with a faint smile in his eyes.

"I really envy you, the family is about to have a baby," said the wife of the head of state, "you are in the late pregnancy, and you haven't gained weight yet."

Jin Sheng said with a slight smile, "I heard from Yong Chun that your family has two grandchildren, who are very cute."

Speaking of her grandson, the head of state's wife couldn't hide the smile on her face, and she was full of doting, "What are you cute, you two little troublemakers, they can't even walk yet, they are already very naughty." She looked at the grandson again. Look, "Hey, why didn't you see Qingge?"

"She is still studying abroad." Jin Sheng said.

"It's said that daughters follow their mothers, it's true, Qingge looks exactly like you, and they're both so beautiful," the wife of the head of state sighed, "It would be great if our family Huanhuan could have another granddaughter. "When she was young, she wanted to have a daughter, but she gave birth to a pair of worry-free sons; now her daughter-in-law has given birth to a pair of twin grandchildren, and she has not seen any of the granddaughters. The house is full of men, which makes her quite a headache .

"You are so happy," Gu Ruoqiu said with a smile, "Huanhuan has been two people all his life, they look exactly alike, beautiful and cute, how wonderful."

"What's the matter?" the Fuhrer's wife sighed again, "a room full of men..."

What she said caused the female relatives to laugh.

Just as the atmosphere of the banquet in the small courtyard of the Gu family became more and more lively, a black car stopped at the entrance of the small courtyard. When Jiang Chen opened the rear door of the car, Qingge got out of the car, and she quietly walked into the small courtyard, Looking at the lively scene in the house through the French windows, she smiled and walked up the steps.
