Chapter 40: A Reenactment
Sisi's skin started to become white and tender, and she also gained some weight. The flesh on her face was soft like plasticine, and Chuchu couldn't help but rub it.
Qu Zhi had been busy with the full moon celebration recently.
"Full moon" meant the beginning of a child's wonderful Life, and relatives and friends would come to give their blessings. Qu Zhi wished that Sisi could receive the blessings of the entire world.
She was now the child's shield. Behind her, her little princess only had love and no more harm.
In her previous life, Sisi was taken away before she even had her full moon celebration, so many of Qu Zhi's relatives didn't know that Qu Zhi had given birth to Sisi.
This time, she was prepared to throw a big banquet. She wanted everyone to know and remember that Sisi was her baby, and no one could take her away.
She made a special call to the wedding company and personally picked out the invitations from the restaurant.
When the first invitation template was brought back, Liang Wen was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth.
It was a palm-sized red book with a red velvet cover and a special texture to the touch.
There was a small crystal pendant at the bottom of the book, which jingled when he picked it up.
This detail was added at Qu Zhi's own request. Back then, there was no manufacturer that specialized in this kind of invitation, so the boss had to sew it up one by one.
As it was handmade, it looked very caring and human.
He flipped it open and saw Sisi's photo. Sisi's eyes were round as she looked at the camera in a daze. She was even biting her little fist.
Liang Wen gently picked up Sisi from the cradle and showed her the photo. "Our Sisi is a little beauty!"
Chuchu pouted and mumbled, "Me too." Her mother had also taken a photo of her. She was wearing a beautiful chiffon dress, looking like a little princess.
Qu Zhi laughed. "Chuchu is a great beauty, and Sisi is a little beauty."
Chuchu lowered her head and thought for a while. She felt that her mother was definitely a beauty too. "Mom is a big beauty, I'm a medium beauty, and Sisi is a small beauty."
Qu Zhi booked the largest five-star hotel in Jiang city, Hua AI Hotel.
Liang Wen had brought her there once before, and it was completely different from the five-star hotel she had imagined. Although it was a five-star hotel, the decorations were very down-to-earth and the service was not high-profile. It was a grand hotel for the people of Jiang city.
She had reserved the entire third floor.
"Do we have that many relatives?" Liang Wen asked her. He was afraid that it wouldn't be full.
"We do." Qu Zhi nodded her head with certainty. She had sent out quite a number of invitations.
On the day of the full moon banquet, it was really full.
Qu Zhi had even specially booked a private room upstairs for her close friends to sit in.
When there were many people eating, it would be noisy. Sisi was tired and couldn't sleep. The private room upstairs was quiet and convenient for feeding. Besides, how could her full moon celebration make her unhappy?
Everyone saw that the address on the invitation was Hua AI Hotel. This meal must have been very good.
Of course, when the news spread among her relatives, Huang Qing also heard that Qu Zhi was going to hold a full moon celebration at Hua AI Hotel, which was a big hotel.
Although Huang Qing didn't receive an invitation, she still stubbornly explained to her relatives, "Why does the family still need to use invitations? Don't be so formal."
Almost everyone had arrived, and the MC began to go through the process.
Qu Zhi's family stood on the stage, all dressed up. Qu Zhi was holding Sisi in her arms, smiling brightly. The cameras below the stage were all aimed at her and taking photos.
"You guys sure are grandiose." Huang Qing mumbled as she peeked from the corner of her eyes, but the chopsticks in her hand didn't stop.
"Look at you, what good fortune you have." The relative sitting next to Huang Qing looked at the happy family on the stage and happily nudged Huang Qing.
Huang Qing rolled her eyes and sneered.
While they were eating, Qu Zhi specially toasted Sister Song, "I, Qu Zhi, will never forget Sister Song's kindness these days."
Chuchu also respectfully stood up and toasted Song Mei. "I, Liang Chu, will also... Remember!"
The people at the table laughed.
Now that they had two cute little princesses at home, they would be so happy.
Halfway through the meal, Qu Zhi and Liang Wen had to go and toast their relatives according to the rules, so they left Sisi upstairs with Sister Song and the others.
In the end, when they were toasting, Sister Song came down in a panic.
"Did you see Sisi?"
Qu Zhi's heart skipped a beat. She tried her best to suppress her trembling. "No."
"I went to the bathroom, but the baby is not in the cradle."
Qu Zhi's eyes instantly lost focus, and she subconsciously roared, "Huang Qing!"
The banquet was completely silent as everyone raised their heads to look at Qu Zhi, not knowing what had happened.
Huang Qing's seat had long been empty.
