Chapter 167 Welcome Banquet

"Uncle Zhao is teasing me again."

This time, not to mention the eldest sister-in-law Liu, even Du Jingyi and Xue Niang who were close to them noticed the changes in Shang Zhiping.

Unexpectedly, Xing Zhao could bring about such a big change in Shang Zhiping. This was something they had not expected.

In the past, they always felt that Ping'er was still a child who needed care, concern and correction.

But judging from Ping'er's attitude, he can only truly relax when he is with Xing Zhao.

Du Jingyi suddenly understood that a child like Ping'er, who had grown up under the spell of a tight hoop since childhood, might not need someone to lead him to change and move forward, but a companion who could help him relax.

Although they said they hoped to help Ping'er, they were actually adding pressure to him.

Unlike Xing Zhao, no one ever felt that there was anything wrong with his personality. Instead, it allowed him to play the greatest role in this trip.

Doing it is a hundred times better than thinking about it.

After figuring this out, Du Jingyi knew how to help Ping'er in the future.

So she looked at Xing Zhao and smiled even sweeter.

This appearance made Xing Zhao's scalp tingle. It always felt like a prelude to being "plotted"! He said to her jokingly.

"Sixth sister-in-law, don't look at me. Cousin Shao Yu is right next to you."

What this means is that if you continue watching this, your husband will probably get jealous.

Shang Ji looked indifferent, but Du Jingyi said it jokingly.

"What's wrong with looking at you twice? It won't cost you a piece of meat."

Xing Zhao looked very aggrieved. He could neither beat nor convince the couple. He was treated like a monkey every day and had to pass the rope to them under pressure from his power. He felt so aggrieved!

Seeing her joking, Mrs. Xing also joined in.

In the past, she was the only one who played with her son, but after so many years, it was no longer fun.

Now with Du Jingyi, she finally found a friend who shared the same hatred and enemy.

Seeing her son jumping up and down in anger, Mrs. Xing was so happy that she almost clapped her hands.

Du Jingyi, who was standing by, also became significantly more active.

Her vivid appearance happened to catch Shang Ji's eyes, and he couldn't help but chuckle at her.

The doting is so much that anyone can see it with their own eyes.

The third aunt silently thought to herself that it was a good thing that she let her daughter stay in Xu Laiyuan and not come over, otherwise after seeing this scene, she would cry for who knows how many days.

The couple's appearance made everyone present feel envious and emotional.

Every one of them, except Du Jingyi and Madam Xing, there was also the unmarried Xue Niang, all of whom were widows.

But a widow has her own life to live, which doesn’t mean she should be sad all her life.

Now that they have left Jinling City and arrived in Sui'an City, it's time for them to live a lively life.

Therefore, the fourth aunt generously picked up the wine glass and joked to Shang Ji.

"I remember Shao Yu has a good alcohol tolerance. Since we met him today, why not hide it? Let Fourth Aunt see if he has improved over the years?"

Then he acted as if he was going to have a drinking contest.

This made Old Madam Gu beside her smile with her eyes narrowed.

In the past, Silang's wife was the most generous person in the family. Even if Old Master Gu was still alive, he couldn't drink more than her.

Therefore, her ability to drink was indispensable in the laughter and joy in the past.

But ever since the incident at the Gu family, she has not drunk any alcohol.

I don’t know what happened today that made her want to have a bowl of it. Seeing this, Madam Gu was very happy from the bottom of her heart.

"Quick, change a bowl for Fourth Aunt. I saw Fourth Aunt's drinking capacity when I was a child, but it's a pity that you stopped drinking later. You must let me open my eyes again today!"

Xing Zhao said in a booing tone.

His noise livened up the atmosphere, which was much better than the lifeless Jinling Gu family.

Old Madam Gu also said with a smile.

"Bring a bowl to your fourth aunt. Her drinking capacity may be even greater than that of all the people present here combined."

Hearing what Madam Gu said, Du Jingyi became curious.

This fourth aunt doesn't look like someone who loves drinking. Is she really that great?

Soon, Du Jingyi's idea was confirmed.

The wine was like clear water in front of her, and she drank it bowl after bowl without any reaction.

Instead, her husband, who was drinking with her, began to blush.

After a while, even the neck changed color.

He was not fair to begin with, so after drinking the wine, his whole body turned red and even a little purple.

Seeing him like this, Xing Zhao couldn't bear it anymore.

He picked up the wine bowl in front of him and started fighting with his fourth aunt.

After eating bowl after bowl, he was finished soon, and he even couldn't hold out as long as Shang Ji.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

He lay slumped on the table, feeling dizzy and seeing double.

When Mrs. Xing saw this, she also looked very disappointed and started to speak.

"This kid is really not very smart, showing off his sword in front of Guan Gong!"

Hearing her teasing like this, everyone laughed again.

After my fourth aunt finished the last bowl of food on the table, she seemed a little dazed.

"After all, I haven't drunk in years. This little bit is enough to make me drunk."

After saying that, he wiped the remaining wine from the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief. He didn't look like a drunk person at all.

Just this little?!

Du Jingyi looked at the pile of wine bowls in front of her, wondering whether her fourth aunt was being modest or saying it on purpose.

Instead, it was his own general who had truly confused eyes.

Thinking back to the first time they met, he was also drunk, but she still looked down on him at that time.

Not like now, but full of heartache.

At the welcoming banquet, before they had even taken a few bites of the food, several people were already drunk.

If it happened outside, it would be somewhat rude, but this was at home and everyone was happy.

Being with family, it doesn't matter if you make a fool of yourself. Xing Zhao thought so, and so did Shang Ji.

Looking at the two of them like this, Old Madam Gu felt both amused and helpless.

She laughed more times today than she had in the past few years.

Then he said to Du Jingyi.

"Ask the kitchen to make two bowls of hangover soup for them to drink, otherwise they will get so drunk that their heads will hurt tomorrow."

"Don't worry, grandma. My granddaughter-in-law will pass on the instructions."

There was a lounge chair next to the flower hall, as if it had been prepared for the two of them in advance.

Although the two were still somewhat conscious, they were already a little groggy when they walked.

When Danruo knew that everyone wanted to drink, he prepared sobering soup, so it was served quickly.

After drinking, I took some sobering soup.

They both fell asleep quickly.

Seeing such a scene, Madam Gu was calm, as if she had experienced many such things before.

He continued to eat and spoke to everyone.

"The man is just drunk, don't worry about it, let's eat our food and don't waste these delicious dishes."

"Yes, Grandmother."
