Chapter 116



Liu Yun originally planned to rest for one night and then go out to play. After all, there were still more than ten days until the Chinese New Year, so going out for a trip was no problem at all.

But Yu Qianhe said he needed to go to the Liu family first.

Yu Qianhe: "Mom, don't worry, we need to go to my father-in-law's house first."

Liu Yun's inner monologue: ...I hope Yu Qianhe won't bring Liu's parents along! No, please, that would be such a downer, it would make her lose interest in going out.

Yu Qianhe: "Well, my father-in-law had his birthday a while ago, so I asked my second sister to bring him some things. Now that I'm back, I have to go and give them to him."

Mother Yu: "Now that you're back, you should definitely go and visit."

After all, although Liu Yun didn't say anything and even seemed reluctant to talk to her family, it was because they were her own daughter, and she could do whatever she wanted.

But they couldn't. The Liu family had raised their daughter for over ten years to marry into their Yu family, so they had to observe proper etiquette and not give anyone cause for gossip or embarrass Liu Yun.

Liu Yun breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that Yu Qianhe wasn't going to visit her parents. As for Yu Qianhe visiting her parents, she couldn't say anything, since she was, in name and in reality, Liu Qianhe's biological daughter.

Although she didn't want Yu Qianhe to send too many things, she couldn't say anything, since Yu Qianhe was doing it for her sake.

If she weren't Liu's daughter, given Yu Qianhe's personality, he wouldn't have bothered with Liu's father and mother at all.

Since Mr. Liu was only home after get off work, the two of them took the child over after lunch, and they were able to catch the last bus at six o'clock on their way back.

Because Liu's mother had been helping out at Liu Aidang's shop, the six of them skipped the steel factory's staff quarters and went directly to Liu Aidang's shop, where Liu's parents usually ate as well.

Li Hui and Liu's mother, who were greeting customers, saw that this family of six had abandoned their business and hurriedly went to greet them.

Li Hui's actions were purely for Liu Yun's sake, since she was now relying on Liu Yun and Liu Jing to make money, and Liu's mother was doing it all for this son-in-law.

Li Hui: "Third sister, when did you get back? Come in, come in quickly. I just went to Xinshi the day before yesterday, and I didn't hear second sister mention it!"

Liu Yun: "I came back at noon today."

Li Hui: "Nannan, why don't you watch the shop first? Come on, Third Sister, let's go upstairs and sit down. It's a mess here."

Liu's mother: "You've come all this way, why bring so much stuff?"

Yu Qianhe: "We didn't have time to come back because it was my parents' birthday! I hope they won't blame us!"

Liu's mother: "Why blame me! Didn't you take some things? We have food, drink, and shelter, and we're all healthy. Didn't you take quite a bit with your second son that day? You still have families and children to support, so just focus on your work."

Originally, Liu's mother was already very happy to hear that Liu Yun had returned at noon and that they would come to see them in the afternoon. Now, hearing Yu Qianhe's words, Liu's mother was even happier. As the saying goes, the more a mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more satisfied she becomes.

Liu Yun, who was walking ahead, rolled her eyes so hard they almost cramped up when she heard her mother's words. Li Hui, seeing this, bit her lip hard to stop herself from laughing out loud.

Both women knew about the scene at Liu's father's birthday party last time, and they had argued quite a bit before. Now that Liu Aiguo's family was doing well, they didn't believe that Liu's mother would still be so understanding and reasonable if Liu Aiguo's family were still like before.

Liu Aidang and his wife were much better at handling people than Liu Aiguo and his wife. Seeing that Liu Yun's family had returned, they immediately closed the shop that afternoon.

Liu Yun didn't stop him from coming back to Liu Aidang's place today because she knew he was coming back today. If he had gone to the family dormitory, Liu Yun would definitely have stopped him, since he still had to deliver New Year's gifts before the holiday. He could just deliver them all at once.

Because Liu Yun's family returned suddenly, and the Liu family hadn't prepared that many dishes, Liu Aidang went outside and bought a whole table of food.

Seeing Yu Qian and Liu Yun enjoying drinks with their father-in-law and brother-in-law, they didn't say anything. They just understood why Yu Qian had to delay his departure by a day; drinking like this would definitely give them a headache tomorrow.

Unlike Xu Hongxing, Li Hui and Liu Yun used to get along quite well. After all, Li Hui was a normal person, and without Liu Aiguo's family causing trouble, they could enjoy a meal together comfortably.

After dinner, the family of six decided to go home, since it was the last bus ride.

Li Hui: "Let's stay one night before going back! It's so late, and there's plenty of room at home."

Liu Aidang: "Yes! Let's stay for one night!"

Liu Yun: "No, no, I need to go back and pack my things. I have to go out the day after tomorrow."

Li Hui: "We can pack it up when we get back tomorrow!"

Liu Yun: "There's a lot to pack, we're taking the kids out."

Li Hui: "Okay then! But you have to take this with you. I know you don't like formalities, and I'm just being sincere, so don't refuse. It's just a piece of cured pork and a cured duck. I know you like these things."

Liu Yun: "Okay, thank you very much, we'll be going now."

Li Hui: "Okay, be careful on the road, and come visit more often when you have time!"

Liu Yun: "Okay."

He glanced at Dangdang and An'an, who were still clinging to Liu Aidang and lying on his back after he had drunk too much.

Liu Yun: "Dangdang, An'an, don't lie on your uncle. We're going home. We still need to pack our luggage."

Liu Aidang: "It's alright, my uncle will carry you to the car."

As he spoke, Liu Aidang staggered out the door, his steps unsteady and drunk, leaving Liu Yun terrified.

Once on the bus, seeing Yu Qianhe, whose neck was flushed from drinking, Liu Yun finally couldn't hold back anymore.

"You came here specifically to cure your drinking craving, didn't you!"

Drinking is fine, but Liu Yun didn't like it when Yu Qianhe drank so much. He got Liu's father drunk, and even Liu Aidang, who was a businessman and often drank, was drunk. You can imagine how much Yu Qianhe drank.

"I can't let you down! Honey, let me lean on you, I'm dizzy from not having a drink in so long."

Liu Yun: "I'll drink you to death."

That's what I said, but I still leaned my shoulder on hers.

Liu Yun was well aware that Yu Qianhe was doing this for her sake. In the Yu family, even when his second and third brothers tried to get him to drink, he always refused. But today, his father and Liu Aidang took turns trying to get him to drink, and he accepted every offer.

In fact, Liu Yun really wanted to say that it was unnecessary and there was no need to pay attention to them, but in the eyes of outsiders, and even in the eyes of her family, it was not acceptable, because Liu Aidang and Liu Aiguo could be ignored, but Liu's parents could not.

If Liu Yun really said that, and Yu Qian did that, they would be drowned in public criticism.

Liu Yun didn't care about these things, but the Yu family couldn't. After all, the Yu family were all people within the system, and they cared about their reputation and face.

Liu Yun: "There's no need to do this in the future. Drinking too much is bad for your health. You can just refuse directly in the future. There's really no need to do this."

Yu Qianhe was indeed upset, "Okay, I understand."
