Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife novel Chapter 1288

Chapter 1288: Chapter 1289: Burn Incense for Blessings of a Big, Healthy Boy

On the actual day of the Qi family’s invitation, Cheng Su got up early from bed, washed, and dressed quickly, then started helping around the house to avoid her mother-in-law indirectly complaining about her laziness.

After breakfast, people began to arrive to help. The banquet was held at noon, so there was a lot of work to be done.

Uncle Zhu, who was in charge of cooking, had already arrived. After receiving a cigarette from Father Qi, he put on an apron and swiftly began washing, cutting, chopping, and frying, busying himself with the preparations.

Early in the morning, the entire Qi family was bustling with people coming and going, making it lively, busy, and noisy.

Today, Mother Qi was dressed in a festive red outfit and went early to offer her respects to the deities. As the eldest daughter-in-law, Cheng Su was also brought along by her side to learn how to offer her respects, albeit unwillingly, but being the eldest daughter-in-law, she had to do it!

Cheng Su listened as Mother Qi offered words of respect to the ancestors and deities, murmuring phrases of thanks for the ancestors’ and Bodhisattva’s blessings, celebrating Jianguo’s admission to university and such.

After finishing up with Qi Jianguo’s affairs, she moved on to the elder son’s, praying for the ancestors’ and Bodhisattva’s blessings. Concerned that it involved her husband, Cheng Su dared not be disrespectful and worshipped reverently.

"Offer incense to the ancestors for their blessing so that you can soon have a chubby little boy!" Mother Qi handed Cheng Su a stick of incense.

Cheng Su’s mind buzzed; this was the topic she dreaded most when brought up by her mother-in-law.

However, she and Qi Taiguo had been trying for months with no sign of success. Perhaps it was time to pray, so she obediently took the incense, mimicking Mother Qi’s worship manner, and uttered her heartfelt wishes.

Mother Qi watched from the side, very satisfied.

She was pleased with Cheng Su’s sincerity toward the ancestors, believing it could lead to good fortune in the future. Her compliance and obedience were pleasing to the eyes.

"Alright, go and help outside." After Cheng Su offered the incense, Mother Qi released her.

Cheng Su felt as if she had been pardoned and walked out.
