Chapter 65



Not long after Gu Qinghuan left in the morning, Xu Huaizhi came over.

Xu Huaian politely invited him in, and the two sat for a while.

What Xu Huaizhi meant was that there is no wrong mother in the world, and after all, the two elders gave birth to him and raised him, so he hoped that he could let bygones be bygones and forgive her for her previous poor treatment of him.

Today is Mid-Autumn Festival. Now that he is well, we should have a reunion dinner together.

Xu Huaian is now extremely disappointed with Xu Mingshan and Liu Guifang, the parents. If they want to go back to the way they used to be, using him in every possible way and kicking him away when he is useless, forget it.

However, Xu Huaizhi was right in one point. If his family wanted to live a stable life in the village, they really couldn't be cursed, otherwise a single spit from the whole family would be enough to drown them.

Xu Mingshan could deny his son, but he couldn't deny his mother.

Yesterday, I kept talking about my pain points and was controlled by my emotions for a while.

As a sensible adult, he should have handled these issues more tactfully.

So after hesitating for a while, he readily agreed.

On the one hand, he had already thought of a way to deal with the two of them. In short, he would turn a deaf ear to them and act as if it had nothing to do with him.

Secondly, he also wanted to see what this old fox Xu Mingshan wanted to do with him.

Now he is no longer the stubborn Xu Huaian of the past. Life has worn away his edges, forcing him to learn to be flexible.

Xu Huaizhi thought his brother had been well advised by him, and left happily.

Xu Huai'an took Gu Qinghuan home, and the two discussed the matter and had a basic consensus.

Gu Qinghuan knew that Xu Mingshan, that fox, could never be better than Xu Huaian, this piece of fat meat.

In short, from now on, I should keep my distance from the old house, act dumb in front of others, and live my own life behind closed doors.

As for them treating us, you invited me to come, isn't it nice to have a free meal?

So they packed up and prepared to take their two children to have a free meal.

As for Mid-Autumn Festival gifts, it is not good to just pick a basket of wild vegetables when you go out. On the contrary, no matter how good the gift is, it is useless to give it to these ungrateful people.

It would be better if they gave up and didn't bother us again.

Zhong Zijun will have a meal first, and when he comes back later, the family will prepare the Mid-Autumn Festival dinner together in the evening.

Gu Qinghuan brought back a rich supply of food today, and the two children were already looking forward to the evening.

"When we get there later, remember to talk less and eat more. Eat as much as you can and eat until you are full. Don't worry about what they say. We are here to eat for free.

Don't worry, your grandma cheated your dad out of a lot of money, and that money is enough for you to eat and drink delicious food every day." Gu Qinghuan explained to the two children.

"I know, Mom!" The two of them looked like they were going to the battlefield, facing the enemy.

Xu Huaian couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"What are you laughing at? Remember, just listen to what I say and stop meddling in other people's business. I heard that your sister is getting married. I wonder what your father is planning to do.

"They invited us to their house after the quarrel. It was clearly a trap. It was definitely a banquet. You should be alert and don't get betrayed without knowing it." Gu Qinghuan warned.

Xu Huaian nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, our family will listen to you. I'm now penniless and kicked out. I rely entirely on you to take care of me. I can't do anything! I'm powerless."

"That's right! We can suffer in public but make a fortune quietly." Gu Qinghuan snapped his fingers and tossed a seedling of wild vegetable into the basket.

"A basket of wild vegetables is enough. Let's go quickly. Don't go too late or you'll have nothing but leftovers."

As the family walked out of the door, they heard Xu Huai complaining loudly in the house: "Dad, when are we going to have dinner? Why haven't the crazy ones come yet? I'm hungry!"

Xu Huai'an pushed the door open with a bang: "Xu Huai, are you nervous?"

Xu Huai was frightened by the sudden appearance of the person and quickly hid behind Xu Mingshan: "Dad..."

Xu Mingshan put down his cigarette, coughed twice, and said slowly: "Are you guys here? Get ready to eat!"

"Dad, today is a holiday and we're in financial difficulty at home. We don't have anything good to give you. These are just some wild vegetables, so don't reject them!" Gu Qinghuansi picked up the basket without feeling embarrassed.

But Xu Mingshan was disgusted. It was not right to say anything, nor was it right not to say anything. Thinking that they would be needed later, he suppressed his unhappiness and said, "Leave it there!"

Xu Huai was a simple-minded person, with a look of disgust on his face: "Second brother, your family is so poor? You have the nerve to give a few wild vegetables as a Mid-Autumn Festival gift, it's really hilarious."

Xu Huai's words actually expressed Xu Mingshan's thoughts, and he did not say anything to stop them, allowing the two brothers to confront each other.

Xu Huaian looked at Xu Huai with a hurt face: "Isn't it true that you have spent less of the money I have earned over the years? Now that I am down and out, you still complain about it.

I want to ask, what have you done for the family during these years when you were idle at home? "

Xu Huai choked. He really did nothing in the past few years. He spent all day either sleeping or hanging out with bad friends.

He had no work to do and looked down upon earning work points on the fields. Relying on the love of Xu Mingshan and Liu Guifang, he did nothing and achieved nothing.

He often asked Liu Guifang for money. As for making money? What was he thinking? He was still young.

Xu Huaizhi heard the noise outside and hurried out of the kitchen. Lin Xiaomeng was cooking alone today, so he had to help, although he only washed the vegetables and so on.

"Would you like to come over, second brother? You two should both stop talking nonsense. Today is a big day."

Xu Huai snorted and walked away.

Xu Huaian was too lazy to pay attention to him.

Gu Qinghuan saw Lin Xiaomeng busy like a top in the kitchen, so he hesitated for a while before going in.

Lin Xiaomeng turned around and saw her come in. He was not as hostile as he was yesterday. He even came over secretly and whispered, "The old man is keeping an eye on both of our families. Tell your guy to be careful with what he says today and don't get involved." Everyone suffered because of this.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend, and they can form a temporary tactical alliance.

"Okay!" Gu Qinghuan felt that Lin Xiaomeng was a very capable woman who could bend and stretch herself.

They brought the food from the pot to the table.

Today was a holiday, and Liu Guifang only gave her a budget of a few cents to go home. Lin Xiaomeng had no choice but to pay for it herself, buying a pound of meat and two pieces of tofu.

Make a pot of pork stewed with vermicelli, a pot of braised tofu, stir-fried shredded potatoes and boiled cabbage, and the staple food is a big pot of steamed three-grain steamed buns.

Not a bad meal.

Liu Guifang was supported out by Xu Huai'an. Her face was as black as the bottom of a pot and she glared at Xu Huai'an's family fiercely.

If it wasn't for the old man's arrangement, she really didn't want to see this family.

There are many people today, so we are eating in the main room.

The Xu family has a strict hierarchy. Only when the Xu Mingshan family picks up the chopsticks can everyone else start eating.

As soon as the meal started, the whole room fell silent, leaving only the sounds of people picking up food and chewing.
