At the old home, when Father Qi and the others heard that Qi Taiguo had been promoted, they were naturally overjoyed. Mother Qi was smiling so broadly that her eyes could barely be seen, her back was as straight as a rod, and she told everyone that Qi Taiguo was promoted, and now people had to call him Chief.
When people admired and praised her for having such a good son, Mother Qi's chin was almost pointing to the sky.
For this reason, she organized chicken and duck offerings to all gods, bursting with excitement.
Seeing her pride, Father Qi, though pleased, advised her to keep a lower profile.
Mother Qi said, "Why should we keep a low profile? Our Taiguo has achieved so much, why hide it? If Taiguo wasn't too busy to come back, I'd have bought a string of big firecrackers to celebrate."
In her view, a promotion was a time for celebration, not something disgraceful, so why hide it?
Father Qi, seeing her like this, could only shake his head.
"In-law."
