"Brother Gan, my dad has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. Don't take it to heart." Qiao Xin said to Zheng Gan apologetically. She couldn't argue too much with Qiao Zhengdong, and she had to let go of this evil anger.
"It's okay, Sister Xin. I'm very happy with my uncle's attitude today." Zheng Gan shook his head quickly. "It was my fault in the first place. Don't worry, Sister Xin, I won't do it again. Even if you don't hit me, my uncle will beat me so hard that I can't take care of myself."
"It's okay." Qiao Xin rolled her eyes and then held Zheng Gan's big hand tightly.
Zheng Gan smiled foolishly when he saw this.
.....
"It's so delicious. It turns out there's a reason why Sister Xin's cooking is so delicious." Lin Hao stuffed his mouth with meat.
Zheng Gan really wanted to kill him at this moment. When he first came, he just wanted to watch the fun, and when the fun was over, he immediately slipped away. But as soon as the food was served, he smelled the food and came over in a flash.
"If you like it, eat more. It's enough for you." Liu Fang said with a smile.
Although he said he didn't like Zheng Gan, the food on this table was indeed of high standard. There were sixteen dishes, which meant that he treated Zheng Gan as his own son-in-law and that this was the first time he came to visit.
"Can you drink it?" Qiao Zhengdong opened a bottle of Maotai brought by Zheng Gan and asked symbolically.
"Yes, yes, yes. I'll drink with uncle." Zheng Gan quickly raised the cup and held it respectfully.
Qiao Zhengdong did not hesitate and poured a full glass of white wine, which almost scared Zheng Gan. You know, this glass weighs two and a half taels.
“Done!”
Without a single polite word, Qiao Zhengdong drank the wine in one gulp and then looked at Zheng Gan.
What could Zheng Gan do? Since his father-in-law had already done it, he decided to do it too. He gritted his teeth and did it too.
"You two should drink less and eat more." Liu Fang picked up a piece of pork ribs and put it into Zheng Gan's bowl.
Qiao Xin also quickly picked up a piece and gave it to Qiao Zhengdong.
"Keep going." Qiao Zhengdong poured another glass. It's only been less than two minutes, and already another one? This is clearly a life-or-death situation.
Just do it. In order to make his father-in-law happy, Zheng Gan is willing to give it his all.
The two of them drank cup after cup, and soon the two bottles of Maozi were empty.
Qiao Xin and Liu Fang were speechless. Qiao Zhengdong had already started to stagger, and it was obvious that he had reached his limit, but he could still maintain some rationality.
But Zheng Gan couldn't do it. Six or seven taels of wine was his limit. This pound of wine was enough to make him sit there and smile foolishly while being unconscious.
"I heard that you have become addicted to being a fisherman recently. Do you plan to do it forever?" Qiao Zhengdong spoke.
"Here it comes, the topic is finally here." Lin Hao, who was just watching the show, said to himself and quickly put down his chopsticks, ready to watch the fun.
"Yes...yes, uncle." Zheng Gan stuttered a little, "What else can a kid like me with no education do?"
"If you want to do this, do it well. You can't fish for three days and dry the net for two days. I can't help you with other things, but I do have some experience in this area of the sea. If you have any questions, just ask me. Luck can't help you forever."
Qiao Zhengdong said this casually, but this one sentence almost sobered Zheng Gan up.
"Okay uncle, I will work hard to let Xinxin live a good life and won't make you and aunt worry about it anymore." Zheng Gan forced himself to sober up and promised with a pat on his chest.
Qiao Xin also looked at her father with surprise.
"Well, finish the house as soon as possible. After it's all completed, let your uncle Gangzi come to propose marriage formally. Let's find a day to settle the matter as soon as possible. Tell your aunt if you need anything." After saying this, Qiao Zhengdong drank a glass of wine in one gulp, then left the table and went into the inner room to sleep.
Zheng Gan grinned, picked up the wine glass, and said loudly, "Uncle, aunt, this is a toast to you! Thank you!"
Then he drank it in one gulp. After finishing it, his eyes went dark and he fell backwards, drunk with a smile on his face.
......
As the sky gradually darkened, the villagers returned home one after another. Laughter and joyful voices filled the air, adding a touch of joy to the village.
"I have a headache. Where am I?" Zheng Gan also woke up with difficulty at this time.
"Where else could it be? This is my home." Lin Hao's rough voice appeared in Zheng Gan's ears.
When he heard Lin Hao's voice, his brain, which was originally a mess, suddenly woke up.
"What happened next?"
Zheng Gan asked anxiously.
"What else can you do? You were so drunk that you had no ability to act. Sister Xin and I carried you back." Lin Hao laughed.
"Nonsense, I'm asking you what Qiao Xin's father said in the end."
"I didn't say anything, just said you two are a success!"
