Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 1522: Chapter 1523: Out with the Old, In with the New

Since they were going to hold a full moon banquet, it was time to start organizing, especially since there were only a few days left before the confinement period was over, the date needed to be set, and invitations prepared in advance.

Fortunately, Cheng Su had been recuperating these days, her complexion was rosy, her spirits were good, and she was able to help with the arrangements.

As for the banquet, it would be hosted at their restaurant. Cheng Su and Mother Cheng checked the calendar; the twelfth of August was a good day, so they decided to hold it that day at the Joy Soon Loy Restaurant.

They tallied up the numbers again, family members from both sides, and each other’s friends. Cheng Su and Qi Taiguo tried to keep it small, yet, after counting, they still needed twelve tables.

"Without realizing it, we actually have so many social connections now!" Cheng Su remarked to Qi Taiguo, looking at the long list of names on paper.

Qi Taiguo said, "As your business grows and my official rank rises, these social interactions will likely increase more and more; we just need to get used to it."

Isn’t it just getting used to it, though compared to the initial difficulties, Cheng Su was quite emotional, it had only been a few years.

While staying home during confinement, Cheng Su bought the invitations and started writing them herself. Distant ones were sent by mail, such as to Guangcheng, while in the Capital, only Old Master Ning and Ning Gang were invited, and whether they could make it was uncertain. As for Ning Ge, as her godfather, he, of course, had to come.

The nearby ones were delivered one by one by Qi Taiguo and others.

Writing invitations and setting the menu was easier to manage. Cheng Su wrote a menu herself and gave it to Qiulan, who would naturally coordinate with the head chef for preparing the ingredients.

Everything was organized neatly and in order, just waiting for the day to arrive.

At the end of July, Hualing and her family moved out completely. Cheng Su was still in confinement, and it wasn’t convenient for her to go out, so she only saw them off at the door.

After all, they had been neighbors for several years, and with them leaving, Cheng Su was quite reluctant, her eyes turned red. Mother Cheng repeatedly said that crying during confinement would harm the eyes, so she held back with great effort.

"We’ve given you the invitation for our Xiao Qi’s full moon banquet, be sure to come and have a couple of drinks," Cheng Su said to Hualing.

Hualing dabbed the corner of her eye, nodded and said, "I’ll definitely come. Take care of yourself!"

"You too!" Cheng Su squeezed her hand, "Call me when you have time, let’s chat."

Hualing pretended to be cheerful, "What, are you going to lecture me over the phone too?"

Cheng Su laughed and glared at her.

The two families exchanged pleasantries for a while. Hualing took one last look at the place she’d lived for years, locked up the house with a big lock, and left with her heart full of reluctance.

No matter how reluctant one is, separation is inevitable. In this world, there is no feast that lasts forever. Today you are here, tomorrow I am gone, who passes by whom, who intersects with whom, eventually forgotten in the jianghu, all because of fate.

Fate comes and goes, begins and ends; parting is perhaps for the next reunion.

Cheng Su naturally wouldn’t forget Hualing, a passerby in her life. They had argued and made a fuss before, and looking back now, it’s surprisingly a rare memory!

When Hualing and her family moved away, Cheng Su and her family felt sentimental for a couple of days, especially when they saw the big lock hanging on their door, it made their hearts ache even more.

But feeling sad is one thing, life must go on, who has so much time to mope around?

Just a few days after Hualing’s family moved away, the big lock on their house was removed, and a new family moved in.
