The family sat down at the dining table. Li Qingqing looked at the table full of sumptuous meals, including chicken and fish, cooked by her father, and felt puzzled.
Before coming here, she thought there was some happy event at home, that her younger brother was getting engaged, and she even planned to give her younger brother a big red envelope when he got engaged.
When I got there, I found out that my brother had broken up with me.
Since they've broken up, why prepare such a sumptuous meal? Is it a celebration? Is this some kind of celebration?
But what her father did next was even more confusing. He actually took out a bottle of good wine. She knew the family's conditions. Her parents ran a noodle shop, which was of course better than making rice, but they were usually very frugal. Now he actually took out a bottle of grain liquor. This bottle of wine was at least worth tens of dollars.
"Come, Xiuyuan, pour some wine." Li Jianguo handed the bottle to Li Xiuyuan.
Li Xiuyuan nodded, took the bottle and started pouring wine, first to his brother-in-law Zhang Zhihao. Although his brother-in-law Zhang Zhihao was honest, Li Xiuyuan's family still respected him very much.
The son-in-law is a distinguished guest of the Dongchuang family. The daughter has married him and is now living in her father-in-law's home. This is good for him, and he will be nicer to his daughter when he returns.
Although this is certainly not absolute, in the simple concept of Li Xiuyuan's family, this is how it is done.
"Hey, Xiuyuan, pour some wine for Dad first." Zhang Zhihao still knew the rules and would never agree to his brother-in-law pouring wine for him first.
Li Xiuyuan then poured a full glass for his father first, then for his brother-in-law Zhang Zhihao, finally for his mother Zhang Qiuhe, and finally for himself.
As for my sister, she is still breastfeeding, so it is definitely not suitable for her to drink.
"No, Mom and Dad, what happened today? Why can't I see anything?" Li Qingqing looked at her parents in confusion and asked.
Not to mention the sumptuous meal, they also brought out such expensive wine. In addition, my mother Zhang Qiuhe only drinks a little when she is happy, and she doesn't drink wine normally. But today she also poured some wine.
"Haha, Qingqing, Zhihao, today, my family has a good news to tell you. Xiuyuan passed the civil service exam." Li Jianguo no longer kept the secret and announced it directly.
"What? Didn't Xiuyuan just say..." Li Qingqing turned and looked at his younger brother Li Xiuyuan.
Without waiting for Li Xiuyuan to explain, Li Jianguo immediately started to explain the whole process, from not being qualified for the interview, to getting into the interview by chance, and then to making a comeback in the interview.
The series of events that unfolded seemed like a story. Li Qingqing was stunned, and her brother-in-law Zhang Zhihao also widened his eyes. How could the situation be reversed in this way?
Earlier, Lin Jingya broke up with her brother-in-law because he failed to get the interview, but her brother-in-law turned the tide and got a job in the county government office.
Li Jianguo raised his glass and said in a loud voice, "Just today, your brother went to the Human Resources Bureau to get his registration notice. He will start working at the county government the day after tomorrow. Come, let's have a toast together."
