Feng Haidong lived an unremarkable life and passed away peacefully. After his death, he found himself back in 1996.
Now in his prime at the age of thirty, Feng Haidong resolves to try just a ...
Since it was New Year's Eve, everyone enjoyed a good time drinking and celebrating.
Of course, Feng Haidong's second brother-in-law, Wang Shutao, did not drink, because he still had to drive back.
Lu Yaobin ultimately chose not to drink and planned to drive his family home.
Seeing this, Feng Haidong smiled and said, "Then let's do it this way. We'll let you, as the second uncle, have a good drink at our Mengmeng's one-month celebration."
Hearing this made everyone laugh.
Lu Yaobin readily agreed, saying, "Okay, then I'll wait until Mengmeng's one-month celebration to drink it."
Feng Haidong said, "No problem. We'll have the full moon celebration at noon. Second sister, you don't need to drive over. Let your brother-in-law have a couple of drinks too."
Second sister Feng Yunmei said, "Your second brother-in-law doesn't drink alcohol."
Feng Haidong said, "It's okay if you can't drink, but you definitely have to drink a cup for your niece's one-month celebration, right?"
Wang Shutao immediately agreed: "No problem, Haidong, I definitely have to have a drink at your daughter's one-month celebration."
Feng Haidong said with a smile, "That's right. Wait four more days. Our Mengmeng's one-month celebration is on the 10th. We'll be at my restaurant again then, so everyone has to come!"
Hearing Feng Haidong say that, his family members all happily agreed that they would definitely come.
Lu Yaorong said, "Brother-in-law, you're holding your baby's one-month celebration at your own restaurant? Aren't you going to invite us to a fancy hotel? You made a lot of money last year."
Upon hearing this, Lin Guojin immediately said, "Yaorong, what nonsense are you spouting?"
Lu Chengzong's expression also turned somewhat unpleasant: "It's the New Year, and you've only had a few drinks? And you're already talking nonsense."
Lin Guojin said with a stern face, "Can your eldest sister's child have a full moon celebration at a fancy hotel?"
Lu Yaorong didn’t quite understand why his parents were angry with him at first.
Upon hearing his mother's next words, Lu Yaorong immediately understood.
This is the eldest sister's second child, so they definitely need to keep a low profile. If they were to hold a grand celebration at a fancy hotel for the baby's one-month celebration, and someone were to deliberately target them, the eldest sister and her husband would face more than just a fine.
Lu Yaorong quickly said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, sister and brother-in-law, I've had too much to drink and I didn't think before I spoke."
Feng Haidong smiled and waved his hand: "It's alright."
Lu Wanling was also somewhat dissatisfied with her younger brother's performance, but because it was the Lunar New Year, she could only force a smile and say, "It's okay."
Feng Haidong got up from his seat and walked to his daughter's crib.
Staring at his sleeping daughter, he slowly squatted down, as if talking to himself, or as if speaking to his sleeping daughter: "My dear daughter, Daddy and Mommy can't have a big celebration for your one-month birthday. We hope you won't blame us in the future. Don't worry, Daddy and Mommy will love you even more."
Watching Feng Haidong walk to his daughter's bedside, squat down, and say these words to his sleeping daughter.
The whole family immediately fell silent and looked at the father and daughter by the bedside.
This scene was quite heartwarming for everyone.
Looking at her husband, Lu Wanling smiled and said, "Alright, don't wake our daughter up. If you do, you'll be responsible for putting her back to sleep."
Feng Haidong got up and sat back down at the table.
He raised his glass again and said, "Wife, I toast you. You've worked so hard these past six months. Thank you for bringing a new member to our family. Thank you for giving me such a lovely daughter. Now I, Feng Haidong, have both a son and a daughter. I am truly blessed."
The whole family watched the couple quietly.
Lu Wanling never expected her husband to suddenly toast her and say such things.
While Lu Wanling was in a daze, Lu Yue suddenly came over and said, "Auntie, hurry up and pick up your wine glass, you're going to drink with Uncle."
Lu Yue suddenly appeared, breaking the silence in the restaurant.
Immediately, the others came to their senses and burst into laughter.
Lin Guojin said, "Yueyue is right, Wanling, you should have a drink with Haidong."
Lu Wanling also came to her senses, smiled and gently pinched her little niece's cheek, then picked up the cup of beverage in front of her.
"I'm glad you have a conscience and know I've had a tough time. Actually, you've had a tough six months too, running such a big business all by yourself while also taking care of me and the kids. So, we're even now. This toast is to wish our family all the best, and I hope our children grow up healthy and happy."
Feng Haidong smiled and said, "Okay, I wish our big family all the best, and I wish our children good health and happiness."
The couple then clinked glasses and drank the drinks together.
Seeing Feng Haidong and Lu Wanling clink glasses and drink, Lu Wanhong couldn't help but say, "Oh my, it's the New Year, and my sister and brother-in-law are still showing off their love. It's so cheesy."
Lu Wanhong's words made everyone burst into laughter.
Lin Guojin laughed and said, "How dare you say that? How old are you? I haven't seen you find a boyfriend or anything."
When Lu Wanhong saw her mother steer the conversation toward her, she immediately backed down: "Mom, can you please stop bringing this up? I didn't do anything wrong, did I?"
Liu Guifang said with a smile, "My little sister really should consider her personal life."
Next, the older sisters and sisters-in-law joined in the conversation.
Lu Wanhong looked quite annoyed, never expecting that she would get herself into trouble.
Fortunately, the Spring Festival Gala started on TV at that moment.
So everyone quickly shifted their attention to the television.
Seeing that everyone's attention had shifted away from her, Lu Wanhong secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing her younger sister's state, Lu Wanling smiled and moved closer to her, saying, "Look at you, you've gotten yourself into trouble, haven't you? How about we ask some of your older sisters and sisters-in-law to introduce you to someone?"
Lu Wanhong quickly whispered, "Big sister, can we not talk about this during the New Year?"
Seeing her sister's bitter face, Lu Wanling could only decide to keep quiet about it for the time being.
As the Spring Festival Gala began on TV, the children had almost finished eating. After watching TV together for a while, they started to want to go outside and run around.
The grandparents didn't object, they just told the children to be careful when they went out to play.
Feng Haidong found two flashlights and handed them to the two oldest children, instructing them to take good care of the children when they went out to play.
Afterwards, a group of children, the older ones leading the younger ones, filed out of the restaurant, and soon after, the sound of cannons rang out outside.
Seeing a group of children going out to play, Feng Chungu said, "It's really good to have children. With such a large group of children going out to play, we elders can rest assured."
Lu Chengzong said, "Nowadays, families only have one child. In the past, when we went back to our hometown for the New Year, each family had five or six children. It was like going to fight with someone."
Everyone burst into laughter upon hearing what the two elderly people said.
Amidst laughter, the whole family felt that it would be a great choice for the two families to spend the Lunar New Year together in the future.
