Li Ping nodded in agreement, then sat down and started eating.

Sun Xiu nudged Li Mei and said, "Go make them both a cup of tea to sober them up."

Li Mei responded and got up to make tea.

Li Jiakang was still mumbling, "Then it's all for nothing. If you can't drink in the future, then don't drink."

Sun Xiu glared at him again, "What are you talking about? Did you get this wine?"

Li Jiakang, probably drunk, stiffened his neck and said, "That's right. Look, who among Xiaoqiang and the others said they wanted to drink tea?"

That's the truth.

After dinner, Sun Xiu saw that several people had drunk a little too much, so he said he would make them a cup of tea and wait until they sobered up before leaving.

But several people declined.

He also said that drinking tea after drinking wine is a waste...

So Li Jiakang has been drinking plain water now, and he said that he wants to have this dizzy feeling.

Sun Xiu was so angry at Li Jiakang's behavior that she gritted her teeth and said, "Xiao Xu, put that bottle of wine away and don't give it to him anymore."

"good."

Li Jiakang glared again, "Why?"

"Why? If you didn't make it, why should I let you drink it?"

This made Li Jiakang deflated, and he quickly said ingratiatingly, "No, Xiu'er, I won't drink too much in the future, drink less."

Sun Xiu ignored him and went straight to talk to other people.

Li Jiakang was so anxious that he scratched his head.

Then he thought of something and quickly looked at Li Xu.

Before he could even open his mouth, Li Xu said, "Dad, don't even think about it. My mom won't agree, and I definitely won't give it to you."

Li Jiakang said angrily, "You are my son. I have raised you for nothing."

Sun Xiu also sneered, "He's still my son. Is it all your credit that I raised him to this age?"

Just then, Li Mei brought in two cups of tea.

Li Jiakang seemed to have seen a savior, "Daughter, your mother won't let me drink anymore, what do you say?"

Li Mei thought about it, then showed a helpless look on her face, "I listen to my mother."

Li Jiakang stared at her with wide eyes.

As if she couldn't believe that this was what she said.

Sun Xiu immediately showed a proud smile.

Li Ping and the others also shook their heads, thinking that this was just looking for trouble. Who among them would dare to go against their mother's wishes?

Even though Li Jiakang often beats his brothers.

But the more he fought, the less afraid they were of him.

On the contrary, everyone is afraid of Sun Xiu, who is not good at fighting.

Even Li Mei is the same.

He saw that no one spoke up for him, not even his beloved daughter.

Li Jiakang suddenly became dejected.

Li Ping wanted to persuade Li Jiakang to be more open-minded.

But Sun Xiu said to everyone, "Don't worry about him, he will be fine in a while."

Li Ping didn't say anything more.

Sure enough, after everyone chatted for a while, Li Jiakang also reached out and grabbed something to eat.

I will say a few words when I encounter topics that interest me.

He didn't look unhappy at all.

Everyone looked at each other.

As expected, Sun Xiu knows him best.

The next night we had another sumptuous dinner.

After eating, Sun Xiu and Li Ping went to Sun Yizhuo's place.

He came back not long after.

Sun Xiu started sighing as soon as he got home.

Everyone hurried forward to ask.

Sun Xiu glared at Li Jiakang. "Gouzi's face is all bruised. He wasn't good-looking to begin with. What good girl would be interested in him now?"

Li Jiakang quickly asked Li Ping, "Didn't you say yesterday that they were both fine? How did their faces get bruised?"

Li Ping also looked helpless. "He's really fine, but who would have thought that he would get up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom and fall, and this is what happened."

Everyone: ...

After a moment of silence, Li Jiakang forced a smile and said, "It's okay. What grown man doesn't have some injuries? It won't affect his search for a wife."

Sun Xiu snorted, "It seems you weren't the one who fell. You're making it sound so easy."

Most people don’t expect their partner to be good-looking, but they don’t want to find someone with scars on their face.

This is true no matter what era it is.

Li Xu thought about Sun Yizhu's dark face, and then thought about the wound on his face.

I don’t know what to say.

Li Ping persuaded her, "Mom, don't think about it. The wound on my cousin's face isn't big. Maybe it won't leave a scar after it heals."

"Yes, yes, yes." Li Jiakang quickly agreed.

Sun Xiu sighed again, "I hope so."

It is said that Laba is the New Year.

Although the conditions were very tight, there was some festive atmosphere on the streets.

Smiles also appeared on people's faces.

The same is true for Li Xu.

That night, after dinner, Li Xu sat at home and talked to everyone.

Soon there was a knock on the door.

Li Chen was instructed by everyone to go out and open the door.

After a while, he came in with several people.

After seeing who was coming, everyone quickly stood up and greeted him.

Li Xu was also taken aback. After greeting Du Hong, he quietly said, "Why did you bring them here too?"

In addition to Du Hong's family, the guests also included the Qi family who caused trouble that day.

Du Hong was also helpless and said, "They begged me at my house for a whole day and insisted on coming to your house to apologize. I asked them to call you over, but they refused, saying that this would show sincerity."

After greeting them, Li Jiakang looked at the strangers and asked in confusion, "Who are these people?"

Du Ming had a complicated expression on his face. "Old Li, let's talk about this later. These people are here to apologize to Xiaoxu."

Everyone in the Li family was stunned.

Then I saw the middle-aged man that day kick the young man next to him and said, "Why don't you apologize quickly?"

The young man walked up to Li Xu with a reluctant look on his face and said, "I'm sorry."

Li Xu looked him over and asked, "If I remember correctly, your name is Qi Dalin, right?"

The other party said "hmm".

Li Xu said with a smile, "Why? From your tone, you're still not convinced?"

Just as the other party was about to say something, his father quickly stepped forward with something in his hand. "I surrender, I surrender. We are here to beg for mercy. This is the gift we brought. Please accept it."

After saying that, he slapped Qi Dalin in the face.

Qi Dalin didn't say anything stubbornly anymore, "We give in. We're sorry."

Li Xu nodded. "Why did I hear you had to come to my house to apologize after begging for a whole day?"

The middle-aged man forced a smile on his face. "It's etiquette to apologize in person. We all know that."

That's true.

Then Li Xu raised his head slightly, "Where's that guy? Do you still want to fight me?"

The man turned his head and saw the young man who was kicked by Li Xu that day standing behind him.

So he reached out and pulled him over, "No, no, he's here to apologize too."

The man didn't say anything else, but slapped himself twice and said, "I was wrong, I'm sorry."

This action stunned Li Xu, and he hesitated and said, "Just apologize, what's this?"

The middle-aged man smiled again and said, "Isn't this just a way for us to show our determination to admit our mistakes?"
