At noon, my father returned home from Feng Baoan's place first.
Not long after, Feng Haidong's brother-in-law, Fang Jianxing, returned with Fang Jie and Feng Qifan.
When Fang Jianxing returned and saw Feng Haidong, he immediately took the initiative to establish a relationship with him.
"Haidong is back! Brother-in-law, I heard from Mom and Dad and your older sister that you're running your own business now, and you even have Feng Baoan helping you collect crayfish in town. Your business is doing very well."
Liu Guifen was immediately displeased upon hearing her eldest son-in-law's words.
"What's wrong? Haidong earns money through his own abilities, and you, as his brother-in-law, want to teach your brother-in-law how to do business?"
Fang Jianxing wasn't angry at all at the barbed words from his mother-in-law. Instead, he smiled and said, "Mom, look at what you're saying. Haidong's business is booming. As his brother-in-law, of course I'm happy for him. Besides, how could I dare to teach Haidong how to do business?"
Feng Chungu clearly didn't want the house to be noisy either, so she simply said, "Alright, let's eat first. After dinner, Haidong, you and your brother-in-law can have a good talk."
Upon hearing his father speak, Feng Haidong naturally smiled and replied, "Okay, Dad."
Then Feng Haidong said to his brother-in-law, "Brother-in-law, let's eat first. Try your brother-in-law's cooking for lunch today."
Fang Jianxing was somewhat surprised: "Haidong, you can cook now?"
Seeing her husband's surprised expression, Feng Yunhua smiled and said, "Haidong's cooking skills are excellent. You should really learn from him. He runs a business while also cooking for his wife and children at home."
Fang Jianxing exclaimed in surprise, "Oh dear, I thought I was the best to my wife, but now that I'm compared to Hai Dong, I realize I haven't been good enough to your older sister."
Feng Haidong laughed and said, "Brother-in-law, don't be modest. I've heard from the people in your Fang Village that my brother-in-law may not be good at other things, but when it comes to loving his wife and being filial to his parents-in-law, he is absolutely famous for miles around. I still have a lot to learn from my brother-in-law."
Fang Jianxing was all smiles after being told this, and then everyone went inside and sat down together.
Feng Chungu also brought out his good wine and invited his son and son-in-law to have a couple of drinks together.
Fang Jianxing even invited his son, Fang Jie, to have a drink with him.
"Xiao Jie, go get a wine glass. We're going to have a couple of drinks with your Uncle Dong and Grandpa today."
These words naturally displeased Liu Guifen: "Xiao Jie is still a child, how could you let him drink alcohol?"
Seeing that his grandmother was unhappy, Fang Jie said, "Grandma, I'm already sixteen. I won't drink too much, just one cup. I'll keep my Uncle Dong company today."
Liu Guifen said, "What? You're sixteen now, all grown up, and you don't listen to your grandma anymore?"
Fang Jie immediately backed down: "Okay, okay, Grandma, I'll listen to you, I won't drink it."
Seeing this, Feng Qifan raised his Jianlibao and said, "Brother Xiaojie, let's drink together."
However, at this moment, Feng Chungu said, "Xiao Jie has indeed grown up. Your uncle, aunt, and younger brother will all be here today, which is a happy occasion. Listen to your father, go and get a cup and pour half a cup."
Upon hearing her husband's words, Liu Guifen immediately glared at him and said, "You just spoil him."
Feng Chungu smiled and gently patted his wife's hand, comforting her.
In the end, Fang Jie still poured half a glass of wine.
The wine was poured for everyone, and naturally, everyone raised their glasses and took the first sip together.
Next, everyone ate the dishes prepared by Feng Haidong.
After tasting it, Fang Jianxing immediately said, "Wow, Hai Dong's cooking skills are really amazing! The taste of this dish is just as good as the ones in restaurants."
Feng Yunhua chimed in, "You're just talking nonsense. Can Hai Dong's cooking skills compare to those of the chefs in the town's restaurants? He's clearly even better than the chefs in the town's restaurants."
Fang Jianxing laughed and said, "Yes, yes, my wife is right. Haidong's cooking skills are even better than the chefs in the restaurants in town."
Feng Haidong said, "Big sister, brother-in-law, please stop praising me. If you keep praising me like this, I'll feel like I can fly. If you like it, eat more. We need to finish all the food at noon today."
The whole family enjoyed a delicious lunch together, raising their glasses in toasts.
Feng Haidong prepared a whole table of dishes, and they were all eaten.
My son and nephew ate a lot, in particular.
After the meal, the task of cleaning up the table and washing the dishes naturally fell to the eldest sister and Lu Wanling.
Feng Haidong and his brother-in-law Fang Jianxing followed their father into the vegetable garden outside and sat down to chat.
Feng Chungu did not speak first, but let her son and son-in-law talk first.
Feng Haidong understood his father's intentions, so he spoke first: "Brother-in-law, I heard from my sister that you hope to come and collect the crayfish from your village in the future, and then sell them to Uncle Bao'an?"
Since his father-in-law was present, Fang Jianxing didn't hold back and directly expressed his thoughts.
“Haidong, what I’m thinking is that our village is quite far from the town. It would be troublesome for you and Feng Baoan to collect the goods in small batches. Why don’t I gather them all together from the village and then deliver them to the town from there?”
After hearing his brother-in-law's words, Feng Haidong retorted, "Brother-in-law, do you mean that Fang Village is farther from the town than Feng Village?"
This question left Fang Jianxing speechless for a moment.
Seeing that his brother-in-law was speechless, Feng Haidong continued, "Brother-in-law, I know what you're thinking. You want to do it yourself so you can make a profit."
Upon hearing this, Fang Jianxing immediately looked up at his father-in-law, who was sitting silently beside him.
