Chapter 1056 The radish is not big, it grows up on the elders!
The gifts Yang Jing selected were of course fine. In addition to the painting "The Turtle Still Long" by Zheng Banqiao, who was selected for his grandparents, he could definitely give out other gifts.
Like my aunt's gift is a "Hundred-Life Picture", a famous painter in the early Qing Dynasty. This "Hundred-Life Picture" is his original work.
What I prepared for my parents was a Hetian Yuzigang brand. Although this Zigang brand was not a work by Lu Zigang, it was also an old object. It was the craftsmanship of a Suzhou carving craftsman named "Chen Jue" in the early Qing Dynasty.
The birthday gift prepared for my aunt was a ivory ruyi from the Qing Dynasty. This ivory ruyi is all white and yellow, and the style is simple. You can tell at a glance that it is definitely from a wealthy family, and it may even come from a Da Nei.
The gifts prepared for my uncle are precious. It is a gold-inlaid jade ornament, a jade carving for the longevity peach with his hands, but this jade carving stands on a base of red sandalwood and gold.
The height of the birthday star is about 25 or 6 centimeters high. He holds a stick in his left hand and is holding a big birthday peach in his right hand. He smiles and looks cute.
The birthday man stepped on the golden auspicious clouds. Needless to say, the auspicious clouds are naturally made of gold. Then the golden auspicious clouds are connected to the bottom of the red sandalwood base. The three together form a large ornament.
This birthday man was carved from a whole piece of Hetian jade. Although it is not a top-quality material, the carving is quite good, and it is also an old object. According to Yang Jing's identification, the big ornament of this birthday man was from Prince Chun's mansion in the Qing Dynasty...
Although my uncle is the youngest in his generation, he is the oldest grandson in the genealogy of the Old Li family. Even if he has two cousins, namely the two sons of Yang Jing's second grandfather, Li Long is the eldest grandson in the genealogy of the Old Li family.
As the eldest grandson, my second uncle celebrated his 80th birthday. My uncle, who is a nephew, must give the most expensive gift, so Yang Jing prepared such a gift for my uncle.
As for the gifts from Yang Jing and his eldest cousin Sun Qiaozhe, it is much simpler. The second grandfather has two hobbies, one is to drink tea and the other is to raise birds, so Yang Jing gave the second grandfather a set of plum blossom Zhoupan pot with five-head hoods, and the first cousin Sun Qiaozhe's gift was a golden bird cage made of red sandalwood.
These two gifts look simple, but they are actually not simple.
The five-headed plum blossom Zhoupan pot given by Yang Jing is the work of Master Wang Yinchun, one of the "Seven Olds of Purple Clay". If this pot is sold, the starting price will be at least 2 million.
Sun Qiaozhe's bird cage seemed inconspicuous, but the bird cage came from the Qing Palace. It was a bird cage used by Emperor Qianlong to raise birds...
These seven gifts naturally made Yang Mom very satisfied. Just kidding, can you be dissatisfied? Yang Jing didn't tell her mother the value of these gifts, but my uncle knew it.
When my uncle quietly told his second sister that the value of the seven gifts added up to more than eight digits, my mother was also a little stunned...
However, Yang's father was very open-minded. He told his wife about the reason and his son's current wealth, and Yang's mother stopped talking.
No matter what, these seven gifts are absolutely evident, and they are all very suitable for the sake of the situation.
When Yang Jing received his parents and his group, it was around 8 o'clock in the morning. When he brought his family to the courtyard in the second grandfather's courtyard in East 41st, it was already around 9:30.
Because the alley in front of my second grandfather's house was very narrow, the car did not drive in, but stopped outside and the whole family walked in.
When we walked to the gate, Yang Jing's cousin, the eldest son of the second grandfather's family, Li Yuhua, the cousin of the old uncle Li Long, and his wife were already facing each other at the gate. As the eldest son of the second grandfather, the eldest cousin must stand at the door to welcome guests on this occasion. Even if the guests who come today are relatives, this rule cannot be abolished.
Yang Jing's eldest cousin is 60 years old this year, but he is already the grandfather of two grandchildren. The eldest cousin's eldest grandson, Li Xiang, had seen him a few years ago and gave the little guy a Bodhisattva pendant of Hetian jade. Now that little guy is still in his teens. However, the eldest cousin's son, Yang Jing's cousin, added a granddaughter to the eldest cousin last year, and the little guy is still breastfeeding now...
When Li Yuhua saw a large family of uncle's family walking over, she also showed a happy smile on her face and pulled her wife to meet her.
This is the relationship between a serious uncle, brother and sister, and the relationship is incredible.
After a wave of greetings, the whole family walked into the yard under the guidance of Li Yuhua.
As soon as I walked into the yard, I saw the bustling inside like a large rural market. Dozens of people were busy working inside, some were busy setting tables and chairs, some were busy doing miscellaneous items, and more were busy chatting and talking.
Today, the youngest birthday boy of the old Li family celebrates his 80th birthday, so all the younger generations who can come to the old Li family have come.
When it comes to my mother's family, the population is very prosperous. Yang Jing's grandfather has four brothers and sisters. Although Yang Jing's aunt and grandmother have passed away long ago, they have three sons under him. Moreover, Yang Jing's aunt and grandmother are still there, and grandmother is also a family of four generations. There are thirty people on the side of my aunt and grandmother alone.
Yang Jing's second aunt and grandma have more family members. Compared with his eldest aunt, Yang Jing's second aunt and grandma got married earlier and got married at the age of sixteen. Now the second aunt and grandma are all fathers, and the second aunt and grandma are just five generations living together!
The second aunt and grandma have three sons, and the whole family has a small family of fifty people.
As for Yang Jing's second grandfather, there are also many people. The second grandfather's two sons and one daughter, and except for the youngest son, he has not become a grandfather, the eldest son, Li Yuhua, who is welcomed by the door, has long been a grandfather, and the second grandfather's only daughter, has also become a grandfather.
With Yang Jing and his family, more than a hundred people gathered in the whole yard.
Although the courtyard where my second grandfather lives is from Wubei, the sixth wing and the two-entry courtyard house with a downward room, covering an area of more than 400 square meters, but so many people gather in the yard still look like Wuyang.
The second generation of the old Li family, Yang Ma's generation, after entering the yard, put down the gifts, went straight into the house to talk to the old man and the old lady. Yang Ma's generation has many people, and there are fourteen cousins and sisters in total. Except for Li Yuhua and his wife who welcomed the guests at the door, Li Yuhua's younger brother Li Yumin and his wife were busy doing things outside, and the others were talking to the old man and the old lady in the house.
Like Yang Jing's grandparents, Yang Jing's second aunt, second aunt and eldest aunt did not come. A few years ago, Yang Jing's second aunt and grandparents were stuck in bed due to cerebral thrombosis. Later, Yang Jing took time to go to his second aunt and grandparents and had an injection for the second aunt and grandparents. Now the second aunt and grandparents are in good health.
Then Yang Jing gave the second grandpa, second grandma and aunt respectively, so these old people are in good health now!
However, they did not come here in this occasion. They would not come alone until two or three days later. Then the people of their generation gathered together and gathered together. Today, this occasion is mainly for the children's world.
Yang Jing's grandparents also plan to come back in two days.
This time, my second grandfather celebrated his 80th birthday and did not hold a banquet in the hotel, but held a birthday party at home.
The second grandfather's yard covers an area of more than 400 square meters. In addition to the house, the courtyard is about fifty or sixty square meters, and can place five or six tables of banquets. As for the remaining banquets, they will be placed in the house. There will be eleven tables in total today.
Of course, before the banquet and after the auspicious time comes, the first thing to do is to pay the birthday of today's birthday star.
For the four brothers and sisters of Yang Ma, today's birthday boy is their uncle, and for the second generation of the second aunt and grandma, today's birthday boy is their uncle, and this relationship is really close.
Therefore, when the auspicious time comes, all the younger generations, except for the two little guys who are still breastfeeding, kowtow to the old birthday stars sitting in the main hall and present birthday gifts.
It is natural for the younger generation to kowtow to the birthday star in this situation. No one would object to this matter. Even the princess did not think it was wrong, but instead felt it was very novel. She also kowtowed three times to the birthday star with Yang Jing.
In fact, this kind of birthday worship is also an essence of the ancient Chinese heritage. The inheritance of China takes "filial piety" first, so to pay birthday wishes to elders in the family, you naturally have to kowtow the bowing ceremony.
To be honest, my second grandfather’s birthday is not quite lively this time.
Yang Jing saw on the news that the big families in the south pay birthday wishes to the elderly in the clan, and they are often hundreds of people. The scene is much more lively than today's occasions.
But in the north, it is rare to be able to gather more than a hundred people to pay their birthday. Therefore, the smiles on the second grandpa and the second grandpa have never fallen today.
The younger generation kowtowed for half an hour just by kowtowing, and kept tossing until almost twelve o'clock before the banquet began.
The food for the banquet was delivered to the hotel. After learning that an old man had his 80th birthday today, the hotel specially made a bowl of longevity noodles for the old man.
Among the third generation of the Li family, Yang Jing and the three sisters are the youngest, just like the cousins of the second aunt and grandma family, who are almost the same age as Yang Jing's uncle. Li Yinuo did not come today. If that little girl came, with her fourteen years old this year, many people in their twenties would have to call her aunt...
Just like Liu Baojun, the eldest grandson of Yang Jing's second aunt, she is two years younger than Yang Jing, but she has to be honestly called Yang Jing "Uncle" and Princess "Auntie"...
There is no way, this is that the carrot is not big, it grows on the "generation"!
