The wives and Wang Xiaolan were all cooking inside, and the dishes on the table were piling up. When they were almost done, Wang Tianzhong told everyone to come out and have a simple meal.

Li Yali came today too.

She didn't look at Yu Xiaofeng specifically, as if the woman didn't exist in her eyes.

Yu Xiaofeng, that hanged ghost, no longer dares to say anything excessive to Li Yali. Wang Tianxiao's reputation in the team is no longer what it used to be, and everyone is talking about it.

Even the most naive person would know that these two families are no longer on the same level, and they might eventually lose the chance to even eat at the same table together.

Furthermore, she now feels an inexplicable loathing towards Wang Tianxiao and his wife.

Some time ago, Wang Tianzhong asked them to take the child to the hospital for a check-up, only to find out that the child had some problems due to a high fever. Fortunately, it was discovered early, and the condition could be managed with medication, with hope of recovery.

If this is delayed for too long, the child may suffer from epilepsy for the rest of their life, and the parents will regret it for the rest of their lives.

I originally thought that my mother and eldest brother Wang Tianzhong would inform me, but I didn't expect to find out that it was actually Wang Tianxiao who discovered it first, but he didn't want to say it and had someone else relay it.

Wang Tianxiao must be secretly laughing at them.

Let's gloat.

Seeing that our child had problems, they were secretly delighted. They deliberately acted like good people, putting on airs in front of my mother and older brother. It was truly despicable behavior.

Is he still waiting for us to thank him?

Don't even think about it!

His little scheme is quite something, but it's wishful thinking!

As Yu Xiaofeng pondered, she would occasionally peek at Li Yali across from her, trying to discern the malice hidden behind her smile.

But she waited and waited and waited.

Li Yali was chatting happily with the second daughter, Xiaolan, when the third daughter, Xiaozhu, joined in the conversation.

They are trying to mislead people again.

This old beggar's daughter has been shameless her whole life.

Look, look! Just because a man has gotten lucky and has some money, he's become arrogant and doesn't know his place. He's got his tail wagging like it's in the sky.

They really have no shame!

Seeing that most people were seated, Wang Tianzhong stood up, leaned on the table, glanced at everyone, and said loudly, "Before we eat, let me give you a brief overview. The day after tomorrow is the day Tiancheng leaves home. He's been in the army for four years, and he'll most likely be stationed in the Tibetan border region..."

"Where is the Tibetan border?" Wang Tianxin asked.

"Knowing he's nearby is enough, anyway, he's far away," Wang Tianyi replied irritably, gesturing for Wang Tianxin to be quiet and not interrupt his older brother.

Wang Tianyi has always been a staunch supporter of Wang Tianzhong and his representative in his hometown.

Basically, these weren't major issues; he used to handle them. For slightly bigger matters, he would consult Wang Tianzhong's opinion before relaying it to the brothers.

He was very unhappy to see Wang Tianxin interrupt Wang Tianzhong.

Wang Tianxin muttered under his breath, "I still don't understand."

Wang Tiancheng tugged at his arm under the table, signaling him to stop talking.

“Today, all of us brothers and sisters have gathered here. Except for Xiaomei, who can’t come back, everyone else is here to see Tiancheng off. I suggest we all have a drink with Tiancheng.”

As he spoke, he picked up the wine glass on the table, and everyone else followed suit, even the children picked up their sugar water cups and raised them up in a very professional manner.

"Tiancheng, why don't you say a few words?" Wang Tianzhong said to Wang Tiancheng.

"Eh."

Wang Tiancheng held his wine glass, looked at his mother, then at his brothers and sisters, and his eyes suddenly welled up with tears.

"I was going to say something, but now I don't know what to say. I'll be away for four years, and I don't know if I'll have a chance to come back in the meantime. I'll have to trouble you all with things at home. Let me have a drink first."

Before anyone could say anything, he downed his drink in one gulp and then poured himself another.

"Mom, I won't be able to take care of you anymore after I leave. Please take care of yourself. Don't rush into anything. Discuss things with others first, otherwise I'll worry about you while I'm away."

Another cup.

After raising his third cup, he looked at Wang Tianxiao, then at Wang Tianren, and said bitterly, "Second brother, third brother, we are brothers. We can discuss anything. There's no need to make things so tense. Today, I'd like to toast you two brothers, hoping that you can get along well in the future."

Wang Tiancheng held his wine glass in the air, and the atmosphere suddenly turned cold.

Aside from the children still being at a loss, the adults suddenly seemed quite awkward.

All eyes turned to Wang Tianxiao and Wang Tianren.

We're waiting for them to give their opinions.

Unable to bear the gazes of everyone, Wang Tianren said somewhat aggrievedly, "I don't have any problem with my second brother, it's just that he always seems to dislike me. So, it all depends on his attitude; I'm fine with whatever he says."

All eyes turned back to Wang Tianxiao.

He held up his wine glass, paying no attention to anyone else, but looking first at his wife.

If he drinks this glass of wine today, it will be a sign of reconciliation with Wang Tianren and his wife, at least in form, he will have lowered his stance.

What about the wife's suffering?

Is it really going to just pass by so easily?

His wife suffered so much with him, being bullied so badly by Wang Tianren and his wife, and he just gave up on her so easily?

Why are these people looking at me like that now, as if the problem lies with me?

After killing someone, one lays down the butcher's knife and thinks of instantly becoming a Buddha. But what about the people who were killed? Who has thought about them?

He glanced at Wang Tiancheng indifferently and put the wine glass back on the table.

He was a little angry with Wang Tiancheng.
