He pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "It's alright, I haven't disappeared. If it doesn't work, I'll take care of it later and make sure you have no worries."
"Well..." Li Guanlin didn't know what else to say, so he could only say, "Just make sure it's done right, and don't cause us too much trouble. We're just ordinary people, unlike you who's a big boss now."
Wang Tianxiao did not respond.
He disdained to continue responding to such sarcastic remarks.
"Brother, what are you saying? My brother-in-law stood up for me. I got beaten up and you didn't care. You just stood by and laughed. Now that someone is standing up for me, you keep talking. Aren't you annoying?"
"You brat, you don't know your place. This is all your fault."
“How did I cause trouble? That bastard Zhao Yong insulted our father. Am I just supposed to watch and put up with it without saying a word? I can’t be a coward forever. He can insult me, but he can’t insult our parents.”
"Oh, so you're quite the hero. Should I praise you and give you a banner?"
"No need for that. Just know that I did nothing wrong. Anyway, you're not allowed to say anything bad about my brother-in-law anymore. He not only stood up for me, but also taught that Zhao Lao Er a lesson. He's a benefactor to our family."
"Alright, alright, I won't call you your benefactor anymore, as long as you can still be this stubborn when they come to your door."
“I…” Li Guanhong hesitated for a moment, glanced at Wang Tianxiao, and then mustered up her courage to say, “I’m not afraid of him. What can he do to me? He’s hitting me now while I’m still young. When I grow up, I’ll teach him a lesson.”
"Hahaha!"
Wang Tianxiao laughed out loud and patted Li Guanhong's head, who was standing next to him. "Impressive. You are indeed a fine son of the Li family. You should have this kind of ambition. What are you afraid of? What can they do? Guanhong, don't be afraid of them. Your brother-in-law is here. If they bully you, come to me. I'm letting them off this time. If they are still so reckless, I definitely won't deal with them so easily next time."
"Yes, I'll listen to your brother-in-law."
"Tianxiao, what are you saying to the child? Look at you, so capable, yet so disobedient in front of your parents." Li Yali gently tugged at her husband's clothes.
Because there were only a limited number of chairs in the room, Wang Tianxiao, being a guest, sat on a chair while his wife and Li Guanhong stood behind him.
As her husband and brother's conversation became increasingly rambling, Li Yali gently reminded him.
She certainly felt it was good that her husband could help his younger brother and her family, but she didn't want him to show off too much in front of her parents.
She understands her parents; they are not the assertive type and don't particularly like this way of doing things. Indirectly, they also dislike people who like to be loud and attention-seeking.
Wang Tianxiao smiled and gently patted the back of his wife's hand to indicate that he understood.
He turned his gaze to his father-in-law and mother-in-law and said with a smile, "Auntie, Uncle, I brought you some wild boar meat. It was freshly killed and is very fresh. You can keep it for the New Year so you don't have to go out and cut meat again."
"Okay, okay." Li Wanfu nodded.
He's an honest man, not very talkative, and naturally very quiet.
Qin Xiaoling became a little more lively and said kindly, "Our family can't eat that much meat. I think there are dozens of kilograms of it. We can have three or five kilograms to try, and you can keep the rest. Lili just gave birth this year, so it's time for her to replenish her nutrition."
“We still have some, Auntie. We live in the mountains, so it’s quite convenient for us to hunt a few wild boars. The pork we’re giving you is from two small yellow-haired boars. The meat is quite tender and not dry. You can make some sauce and save it to eat slowly after the New Year.”
"There's so much, how long will it take to eat all of this?"
"Take your time eating. There are so many people in the family, this meat won't last long. After we finish eating, I can go back to hunting for you and have Guanping bring it back."
After mentioning Guanping, Qin Xiaoling asked, "By the way, why didn't Guanping come back today?"
"Oh, him? He still has some things to finish." Wang Tianxiao smiled.
"I was hoping you would all come back together," Qin Xiaoling said with some regret.
"What are you thinking? He went to work for someone, not to go shopping. He can come back whenever he wants. The kid is doing something outside, so why do you just tell him to do it well? Why keep holding him back?"
Li Wanfu said to his wife with a dark expression.
"All I wanted was for the whole family to be together and have a reunion dinner."
"It's not like it's Chinese New Year, why are we having a reunion dinner?"
"You always have so many reasons," Qin Xiaoling glared at the old man. "Do I need to submit an application for anything I say? What kind of person are you, all day long?"
The two elderly people were bickering, which made the children feel a little embarrassed.
I don't know what to do.
Li Yali was the most sensible one. She went over and massaged her mother's shoulders, saying in a soft voice, "My dad is right. Guanping is working on something, so he can't just leave easily. There are other people working with him. If he leaves easily, won't others laugh at him? But Guanping is gaining a lot."
"What did you find?"
"Didn't I show you that girl last time? The two of them are doing really well now."
"Ah, they're doing well? That's really great. That child is handsome and has a sweet tongue. I think she would be a good match for Guanping as his wife. She's doing very well."
"You want her to be your daughter-in-law? Just because you want her doesn't mean she can be. Don't you know what your child is capable of?" Li Wanfu continued to pour cold water on the idea.
"Hey, you old man, what's wrong with our child? He has everything he could want. Is he short, ugly, or bad-natured? You're always complaining about the child, as if you're some kind of genius."
