Originally, Yan Shuhua thought that this would be a simple New Year's Eve dinner for their family, but after Yan Zhenhua's intrusion, the New Year's Eve dinner was no longer simple.

It would have been fine if Yan Zhenhua didn't mention the past, but as soon as he mentioned it, his tone of voice changed completely, and he even started to cry.

Yan Shuhua didn't know what the relationship between his parents was like, but from this he could see that they had a really good relationship.

But that was only because their relationship was good before. If their relationship was not good, they would not have had children.

The atmosphere at the dinner table was quite good. At least Yan Shuhua saw a long-lost smile on Shen Hongmei's face.

Originally, those dumplings were so delicious to Yan Shuhua, but after what Yan Zhenhua said, she actually found them tasteless.

At the dinner table, except for Yan Zhenhua who was eating the dumplings with great relish, no one else touched the dumplings. Even Shen Hongmei, who had been talking about wanting to eat dumplings for a long time, stopped eating.

Li Pingshu ate peanuts with his wine, and the two of them had drunk a bottle of sorghum wine without realizing it. Because sorghum wine has a very high alcohol content, after drinking a bottle, both of them began to feel a little dizzy.

Li Pingshu and Yan Zhenhua were both drunk and started telling jokes at the dinner table.

"Brother Li, I really have something to talk about with you!" Yan Zhenhua already called him brother, without any official airs at all, and Li Pingshu was also happy to call him brother, "I also think I have a lot to talk about with you, brother."

That's how it is at the dinner table. When you drink too much, you start talking drunkenly.

Xiao Jinchu had good self-control, so he didn't drink too much. However, Yan Zhenhua always talked about him when he was drunk, and even put his hand on his shoulder, smiling: "I am still the best son-in-law, the other son-in-law... is not good!"

Xiao Jinchu naturally understood who the other son-in-law was. Xiao Yanmin was a man who only cared about himself and even ignored his pregnant wife. This kind of man was not worthy of entrusting one's life to.

Li Pingshu had drunk too much and had forgotten the huge difference in status between him and him. He spoke louder and louder: "What's good about it?"

"It's all good, every aspect is good, really, it's especially good." Yan Zhenhua patted his chest and said, "Shuhua can marry Jinchu, really, it puts an end to a matter in my heart as a father!" Yan Zhenhua suddenly felt very emotional: "Thinking back, I was such a bastard at the beginning..."

When talking about these bastard things, Yan Zhenhua took the wine glass and drank one cup after another. Li Pingshu was responsible for pouring wine for him, and then responded: "Brother, stop talking. Today is a good day. Don't say unhappy words."

"How can I be unhappy? I can't be unhappy." Yan Zhenhua's face was completely red, and he was still drinking. He looked at Xiao Jinchu and became very serious. Then he said word by word, "Really, Jinchu, you must be better to Shuhua. As a father, I am not good to her. I am already incompetent, so... you must be good to her."

Yan Zhenhua said to himself: "I am a bastard. I have to let my son-in-law do the things I can't do for me."

Yan Zhenhua had a painful expression on his face when he spoke. Shen Hongmei felt sorry for him and quickly advised her not to drink any more: "Zhenhua, you've drunk too much. Don't drink any more. Drinking like this is really not good for your health."

"No, no, I'm not drunk, I just..." Yan Zhenhua suddenly burst into tears, "I just feel sad, really sad!" After saying that, he clenched his fists and pounded his chest.

Shen Hongmei felt complicated as she looked at her husband who had grown old. Especially when she saw him in tears, she felt as if her heart was being stabbed by needles. She suddenly lost all mood to eat the New Year's Eve dinner.

"Jinchu, you must be nice to Shuhua." Yan Zhenhua patted his shoulder meaningfully, "Some people can't redeem themselves after they have done something wrong."

Yan Zhenhua was the one doing most of the talking at the dinner table. This usually steady leader, after drinking, spoke without any restraint. Perhaps because he was thinking about his family, he spoke with a tearful tone and sobbed from time to time.

"I have done too many wrong things!" Yan Zhenhua said as he drank. Li Pingshu also sighed, "How can people not make mistakes when living in this world? I have made mistakes too, so you don't have to keep them in mind."

"But I have done so many wrong things, so there is nothing I can do. I wish I had never done such a wrong thing. I may not have the fame and fortune I have now, but I have a woman I love deeply and a child."

When Yan Shuhua heard what he said, she really couldn't bear to listen anymore and didn't want to listen at all. She just wanted to leave the table quickly, but she saw that her mother's eyes were already filled with tears. In fact, she knew that her mother was always thinking about her father in her heart. After all, he was her first love, and she had spent too much time on him.

Otherwise, she should have remarried long ago, but she didn't. Instead, she raised her alone. It can be imagined that her feelings for Yan Zhenhua were not fake.

But these are all in the past.

The more Yan Zhenhua spoke, the more outrageous it became, as if he wanted to say everything. In the end, Yan Shuhua didn't want to listen anymore and didn't even want to pick up his chopsticks.

Xiao Jinchu noticed that Yan Shuhua seemed a little unhappy, so he took her out. The snow outside had stopped, and the road was covered with snowflakes. Many children were making snowmen and having snowball fights.

Xiao Jinchu held her hand and walked on the snow. Seeing that she was unhappy all the way, he lowered his head and asked, "Unhappy?"

Yan Shuhua did not hide anything and smiled bitterly: "I am indeed a little unhappy, especially when I heard what he said, I am not very happy in my heart."

"Then you shouldn't think too much. After all, what he thinks in his heart is definitely different from yours, so try to make yourself happy." Xiao Jinchu drank a little wine, but it did not affect his walking, and his mental state was still pretty good. "He really went a bit too far. You said that he abandoned me and my mother for almost 20 years, and he is only saying these things now. I think my mother is really heartless and should kick him out." Yan Shuhua was a little fed up with Shen Hongmei's attitude. She believed whatever Yan Zhenhua said.

He squeezed the hands that Xiao Jinchu had held in his pockets with more force, and then said, "But do you know what I think in my heart? I don't think there's anything wrong with him at all. I'm even glad that he gave birth to you. If he hadn't given birth to you, how could the two of us be together?"
