The two fish were so big that they could still be chopped into many small pieces. Gu Qingyao scooped them one by one. Each of them had a piece of fish, then added some tofu and mushrooms.
"Be careful of the shark's fin! Go look for your adults. "
The older children scooped fish soup for her. The younger children scooped spicy soup for her. The children stared at their bowls.
There was really good food!
So much? And meat?
Free food, especially such good food with meat in it, was too extravagant for the children of this era.
The adults were in disbelief.
Previously, the Gu family … or more specifically, Mo Beihan had told the brigade that there would be food at the Gu family's house on the day of the engagement, but there would be no banquet.
No banquet meant that there would be no need for gifts. If there was no need for gifts, there would be food to eat. That was purely a joyous occasion!
Of course, everyone would not be stingy with their compliments. They knew that these things were sent over by Mo Beihan, so all of them praised Gu Qingyao for marrying the right person.
How outstanding Mo Beihan was, and so on.
The Gu family was so lively today and so many influential people had come. Many people from the brigade had come, including Gu Ruoqing and Chen Honghua.
Seeing Gu Qingyao's new clothes, Chen Honghua was so jealous that her eyes turned red.
Chen Honghua was very vain. She had always looked down on the girls in the brigade, thinking that she was the prettiest. Actually, one of the reasons she hated Gu Qingyao was that this girl was prettier than her.
However, Gu Qingyao's family background was not good, so Chen Honghua had a sense of superiority. But now, seeing that Gu Qingyao's engagement was so glamorous, especially with her favorite Mo Beihan, she did not feel good.
"She looks like a vixen. No wonder she's so good at seducing men!" Chen Honghua said angrily.
Gu Qingyao pouted. Although she told herself that she would soon be a young lady in the city and that Gu Qingyao could not compare to her, she could not help but feel jealous when she saw how glamorous Gu Qingyao was.
"The Mo Family is so poor, what's there to be proud of?"
Hearing that, Chen Honghua felt a little uncomfortable, but she was talking about Gu Qingyao, so she just frowned and ignored it.
She thought about how Gu Ruoqing had been telling her recently that she wanted to marry someone from the city. She would have a job and not have to work. She would get a salary every month …
Thinking about it, it was indeed something to look forward to!
But Mo Beihan … he didn't!
When everyone heard what the two young ladies said, they didn't say anything. Since they were eating the food of the Gu Clan, they naturally couldn't say anything bad about the Gu Clan.
Gui Qingyao also saw the two of them and glanced over. She did not pay much attention to Chen Honghua. Although this girl had mocked her many times in her previous life, there was no deep hatred between them. Her attention was still on Gu Qingyao.
She glanced at Gu Ruoqing. Her gaze was light and carried a smile.
Although she was smiling, Gu Ruoqing felt a chill run down her spine. She shuddered as a chill ran up her spine.
Strange!
Gu Qingyao only glanced at her and retracted her gaze. You want to be a young lady from the city?
Not so easy!
The two tables of dishes at noon had won back the Gu Clan's reputation. With so many guests, this was the first time the Gu Clan had displayed their "power" in the Qing River Brigade. Thinking that the Gu Clan was a doctor who could treat the people in the surrounding villages, everyone naturally had more considerations.
With the Gu Clan around, everyone was living well. This was more beneficial to them.
