Seeing Li Xu enter the room, Qi Wen, who was facing the door, greeted him, "Brother-in-law is here, do you want to come to the table and play for a while?"

"No." Li Xu shook his head and continued to persuade, "Qi Wen, just play during the day, it's better not to play at night."

Qi Wen said as he arranged the cards, "It's late at night and I have nothing to do. It would be great to play cards to kill time."

"It's dark at night, and it's really straining on your eyes. If you play like this every day, you'll have to wear glasses before long. You don't want people to say your eyesight is bad at such a young age, do you?"

Qi Wen thought this made sense, so he said to Du Sen at the card table, "I'll draw the cards for you, and you go get the kerosene lamp from our room."

Hearing this, everyone was speechless.

Is this what you meant just now?

I'm advising you not to be so obsessed with playing cards. Can't you hear me?

Seeing that Du Sen didn't move, Qi Wen said again, "What are you standing there for? Go quickly."

Seeing that no one in the room spoke, Du Sen sighed, then stood up and walked out.

At this moment, Li Xu suddenly felt that he had grown a lot...

Qi Wen rolled the dice with a smile on his face, and started drawing cards according to the number rolled. Du Hong and Du Feng, his two card partners, could only follow.

Seeing this scene, Li Xu didn't know what to say.

After a moment of silence, he walked up to the worried-looking Yang Li and handed her the cloth bag. "Aunt Yang, this is a New Year gift for you. Please pack it up."

Yang Li nodded, took the cloth bag, stood up and walked towards the kitchen.

At this time, Du Sen came in with a kerosene lamp, then he lit the lamp and placed it on the stool next to the mahjong table.

After everything was done, Qi Wen asked the other two partners, "What do you think? Do you want another lamp?"

"No, no, this is fine." Du Hong and the others shook their heads quickly.

"Okay, let's continue."

After saying that, Qi Wen began to fiddle with the badge in his hand.

Li Xu sat on the stool and whispered to Du Ming beside him, "Uncle Du, think positively. Playing cards is better than practicing martial arts. At least it won't affect the fetus."

"I know. That's why we didn't dare to care about her." Du Ming replied in a low voice with a wry smile.

Li Xu nodded and then asked, "I heard that they were just playing for fun today, with no stakes. Did Qi Wen feel bored?"

"You'll know the answer if you look at her now."

Li Xu understood instantly that Qi Wen and the others were just playing for fun.

But to be honest, seeing Qi Wen's excited look, Li Xu believed her when she said she won ten dollars.

Thinking of this, he suddenly laughed, "That's good, it means she doesn't have a gambling addiction, but she has a strong addiction to playing cards."

Du Ming was about to speak when Yang Li came in with a cloth bag in her hand. As she walked in, she said, "You guys take a break first and eat some sunflower seeds and peanuts. Then we can continue."

"Playing cards won't affect eating, Mom. Just grab a little for each of us and put it on the stool next to us."

Hearing Qi Wen's words, Yang Li walked directly to her side, took out a peanut, peeled it, and stuffed it into her mouth, asking, "Daughter, is it delicious?"

After chewing it twice, Qi Wen said repeatedly, "It's delicious, so delicious, Mom, please give me some more."

"Stop if you want to eat."

Hearing this, Qi Wen smiled ingratiatingly and shouted, "Mom~"

"It's no use calling dad. Either you continue playing cards, or you play after you finish eating. You choose one."

She knew how delicious the snacks Li Xu took out were, so she wanted to use this to test how serious Qi Wen's card addiction was, so as to decide whether to carry out her idea.

Unexpectedly, before Qi Wen even opened his mouth, Du Sen hurriedly made a decision for his wife, "Fight after we finish eating."

Then he pushed the cards in front of him and said to Yang Li, "Mom, we choose to play after we finish eating, so give it to us quickly."

Yang Li: ...

At this moment, a sentence suddenly popped up in her mind: It is more likely to cause trouble than to accomplish anything.

Just as he was about to speak, he saw Qi Wen glaring at Du Sen fiercely, and then asked for food.

This move really made her happy.

No matter why Qi Wen made this choice, as long as she did it, it means that her card addiction is not as serious as imagined, and there is still a chance to change.

Thinking of this, she quickly grabbed three handfuls of snacks for each of the four people at the card table, said a few words happily, and then walked towards Du Ming.

Next, everyone ate snacks and chatted.

After finishing the snacks in their hands, Qi Wen and the others continued to play mahjong, while Li Xu said goodbye and left.

When he returned home, he saw that everyone in the Li family looked unhappy. Li Xu was a little puzzled. "What's wrong with you? Why do you all look like that?"

Li Ping sighed and explained, "After you left, several people came to introduce Xiaomei to potential partners."

Hearing this, Li Xu couldn't help laughing and joked to Li Mei, "You were so happy when you snatched food from my bowl that your back teeth were showing. Why aren't you smiling now?"

At dinner today, he was happily eating the beef and mutton made by Li Mei.

Unexpectedly, before he had taken a few bites, Li Mei stopped him from eating, insisting that these things were specially prepared for her and she had the right to make the decision.

But the problem is that Li Xu has no way to refute it, because he did say that yesterday morning. Although he didn't mention the name, under the circumstances at that time, no matter who it was, they would think that he was talking to Li Mei.

Later, after others persuaded her, Li Mei took two pieces of beef and three slices of mutton from his bowl and finally understood the matter.

Because she got the upper hand, she kept her mouth shut until Li Xu went to Du's house.

Looking at her expression now, Li Xu really wanted to say that things change and there is retribution in life.

Li Mei glared at him fiercely but said nothing.

Li Jiakang said unhappily, "Alright, stop provoking her. She just had an argument with someone and she's really unhappy right now."

"Huh?" Li Xu was startled. "They started arguing? We're here for a blind date, why would they start arguing?"
