It has to be said that this couple really do look alike; they're practically identical.
If Xu Qingyi hadn't called Meng Ran "sister-in-law," Lin Yifeng would have thought they were siblings.
"Sister-in-law! You can't say that!"
"This is for the child!"
"If you calculate it that way, then the child is at a disadvantage!"
Lin Yifeng smiled and handed the money to Ma Li, who was clearly the one in charge of the money in this family.
Ma Li hesitated for a moment when she took the money.
Even though they were outsiders, Ma Li showed Dong Lai plenty of respect, deliberately turning around to look at him and waiting for him to speak.
Donglai nodded, holding the child as well.
"Keep it, it's all from Brother Feng."
After tidying up a bit more, everyone came to the dining table.
After Donglai greeted them and helped them to their seats, Ma Li went to the side and brought over an electric fan to turn on for them.
This meal was undeniably very lavish.
There were several kinds of cold dishes, and a lot of cooked food was also bought. As for the main dishes, there was a pot of spare ribs and a big pork knuckle, which were Xu Qingyi's favorite foods.
Xu Qingyi picked up a piece of pork rib, ate it with her mouth full of oil, and praised it.
"Your sister-in-law's cooking is really good."
"I loved your ribs when I came last time."
"It's so delicious."
Seeing Xu Qingyi's high regard for her skills, Ma Li couldn't stop smiling.
"If you like it, eat more."
Since everyone had driven there, and there was a hotel right next to Donglai's house, everyone was planning to have a good drink and celebrate.
Before long, the four men were flushed and had clearly drunk quite a bit.
Donglai, holding a wine glass, was making a racket beside him.
"Without Brother Feng, there would be no Donglai today!"
"Brother Feng! I'll have one!"
Donglai immediately downed a cup.
After finishing that drink, Donglai was clearly a bit tipsy.
He was shirtless, with his arm draped over Xu Qingyi's shoulder, and continued shouting.
"I am able to have the life I have today."
"We must thank Brother Feng!"
"I'll give Brother Feng another one!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Donglai poured him another cup.
After downing two glasses of baijiu, Donglai's eyes glazed over, and he began to sit in his chair, staring blankly at the table.
When Ma Li saw that her husband had drunk too much, she smiled awkwardly and stayed with the others.
Seeing that it was about time and it was already 3 p.m., Lin Yifeng prepared to take the group back to rest.
Xu Qingyi and Meng Ran helped the drunk Donglai and carried him to the bedroom.
After leaving and going downstairs, Xu Qingyi smoked a cigarette and enjoyed the breeze to soothe the effects of the alcohol.
The three of them walked to the nearby hotel to book rooms and rest.
Xu Qingyi sighed as she walked.
"Dong-ge is really frugal."
“He earns quite a bit a month now, and the house looks like it hasn’t been renovated at all.”
"It feels like there's nothing there."
Meng Ran nodded in agreement. A small business owner like Donglai was a person of considerable influence.
The interior design of this house is very simple; even the wardrobes are the cheapest kind of red painted wood wardrobes.
