Inside the room, Li Dani was arranging for Pei's second and third wives to go into the kitchen to serve the dishes.
Today the Pei family had an even more sumptuous meal than during Chinese New Year. There was braised pork knuckle, fish head and tofu soup, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, fried bacon with peppers, steamed sausage, chicken stewed with mushrooms, blood duck, stir-fried eggplant with beans, smashed cucumber, and peanuts, making it perfect.
The table was filled to the brim.
"Oh! In-laws! You're here at last." Li Dani came out from the kitchen, took off her apron, and greeted the Ruan family with a smile that showed her teeth.
Although Father Ruan is the deputy director of the steel plant, he has always been frugal. When he saw the table full of dishes, he immediately blamed himself and greeted Li Dani, "My dear, we came here in a hurry this time and didn't bring anything. This dish is really expensive."
"What are you talking about, my dear in-laws?" Li Dani must have also received further education, because she kept saying things in a roundabout way, "Nian Nian, when I saw her, it was like seeing my own daughter. What else do you want to bring? I love Nian Nian so much. Otherwise, how can you city people teach children better?"
This one sentence made Mr. and Mrs. Ruan feel elated.
In their careers, they try their best to do their best. If someone praises them, they think it is nothing, just a reward for their hard work.
But when it comes to raising children.
Perhaps the more you lack something, the more you want it.
Take their three children for example. The eldest daughter grew up and got married in an orderly manner. She is considerate and gentle, and never causes them any trouble. The son is mature and steady. There is very little that requires them to worry about since he was a child. Except that he did not find a partner until he was 24, there is no other problem.
Only the youngest daughter has been pampered by the family since she was a child. She is willful and weak. No one knows how these two extreme personalities are perfectly combined in her. Mr. and Mrs. Ruan want to straighten them out, but the child is already grown up, and no matter what they do, it is of no avail.
Now that they heard Li Dani praising Ruan Niannian, Ruan’s parents were so excited that they wanted to make Li Dani their confidant.
They started praising each other for a while, making the children, who had just finished moving their things and thought they could start eating, drool with envy.
It was Brother Ruan who had the foresight to take out two bottles of wine in white porcelain bottles from the gifts he brought.
"My dear relatives, we are sorry to have come all the way here. My parents specifically asked me to bring some gifts. These two bottles of Tongsha Moutai are what my father has collected for many years. He was planning to open them when my younger sister got married. When he heard that my younger sister had gone to get the marriage certificate, he brought them here without hesitation."
Moutai? Collected for many years?
Li Dani swallowed her saliva. This is very valuable, right?
Oh my! Her in-law is indeed the director of a large factory. He gave her such an expensive bottle of wine. Open it! It must be opened!
You can't be stingy and embarrass your old son.
Li Dani immediately asked Mrs. Pei to set the table.
Li Dani felt heartbroken as she watched the wine pouring out of the bottle.
If this wine is sold, it must be worth 100 yuan a bottle, right? Then I have to drink more!
After the meal, Ruan Niannian was amazed at the level of training of all the members of the Pei family. She was stunned.
Except for the usually taciturn Second Sister-in-law Pei and the petty and calculative Third Sister-in-law Pei, everyone else seemed to be suddenly free of all emotions.
Even Brother Pei, who has always been honest and taciturn, said a few words of toast, which was quite fresh.
This kind of change had never happened in her previous life, and it made her feel very novel.
The Pei family doesn't drink often. Apart from Pei Yuanzheng, who just returned from the army, the one with the best alcohol tolerance is actually Li Dani.
Mr. Ruan and Brother Ruan work all year round, seldom go out to socialize, and their alcohol tolerance is not very good.
In the end, the three brothers of the Pei family were all helped back by their sisters-in-law, and Ruan's father and Li Dani complained bitterly.
"My dear relatives, you don't know, hiccup~ This daughter, her mother and I, dote on her the most, hiccup~ She is also the most disobedient. She is so young, I can't bear to let her go, I can't bear to let her go, hiccup~"
Li Dani hurriedly comforted him, "Yes, yes, my dear, don't worry about Nian Nian marrying into our family. I will never let her work a day!"
"She's only eighteen years old! She's only eighteen years old!" Ruan's father frowned and muttered in pain. His eighteen-year-old daughter had been raped by someone only three months after she signed up to go to the countryside...
Mother Ruan, who had only taken a small sip, was not drunk. She looked at Father Ruan, who was not fully conscious, and was afraid that he would not be able to talk about the main business, so she quickly discussed with Li Dani, "Well, my dear, we are busy at the factory, and his father and I have only taken seven days off. Do you think we should deal with the two children's affairs as soon as possible?"
"Do it! We must do it!" Li Dani became excited again.
Although Ruan Niannian and Pei Yuanzheng have already obtained their marriage certificate, she will never feel at ease unless they hold the wedding banquet.
Didn’t you see that the girl is still living in the educated youth camp? The meaning is very clear, she won’t even stay in your house if you don’t hold a wedding.
Also, I thought that Mr. and Mrs. Ruan only had seven days of vacation. Excluding the four days for the trip back and forth, there were only three days in between. So the wedding banquet had to be held the day after tomorrow at the latest.
Although time was tight, they had prepared everything they needed long ago, so it wouldn't be impossible to do it.
Li Dani and Ruan's mother decided to hold the wedding the day after tomorrow, completely forgetting about Ruan's father and elder brother who were already drunk and unconscious.
Seeing that they had settled all the important matters, Pei Yuanzheng prepared to send Ruan Niannian back to the educated youth site.
"Auntie, I have arranged a place for you to stay. I will send Nian Nian back to the educated youth camp first, and then come back to pick you up later."
Mother Ruan kicked Father Ruan twice under the table in disgust. Seeing that he didn't move, she said to Ruan Nian Nian, "Nian Bao, is it convenient for you to live with me at the Youth League? I want to see where you've been living for the past few months."
