Cakes, canned fruits, malted milk, wine...

A big bag full.

Since we are visiting relatives, the whole family must be together.

Su Zijun also went to the factory early to ask for leave.

After breakfast, I rode my bike to Liu's house to help.

Shen Zhihuan, Su Changjiang, Zhang Fengxia, Zhou Xiuqiao, Xiao Qiping and others rode in Su Ziyu's jeep.

Su Changjiang was still sitting in the passenger seat.

The car windows are rolled down.

Whenever he met villagers who greeted him, he would wave back one by one, just like a king on a tour.

It's said to be a big event, and there's really no exaggeration in it.

As soon as the jeep arrived at the intersection, we saw a large group of people standing in front of the Liu family courtyard, men and women, young and old.

It was Shen Zhihuan’s first time to go to the Liu family, so naturally he couldn’t tell who was a relative of the Liu family and who was a leader in the factory.

Just by looking at the clothes and demeanor of the men and women, young and old, at the door, she could tell roughly where they were.

Bicycles are rare these days, let alone four-wheeled jeeps. When people see a jeep coming, their eyes quickly turn to it.

Seeing this, Su Lixiu's parents-in-law, who were standing at the door to greet guests, raised their chins a little.

When the jeep stopped, Su Lixiu's parents-in-law came to greet them with a smile.

"Uncle Liu, Auntie." Su Ziyu, who got off the car first, greeted the two with a smile.

"Hey! Hey! Zi Yu is such a rare guest!" Su Lixiu's father-in-law nodded hurriedly.

"Zi Yu, please sit inside!" Su Lixiu's mother-in-law also had a smile on her face.

"Second brother." Liu Wenbin, who was busy inside, heard a child shouting that a big car was coming. He guessed that the Su family had arrived, so he trotted out.

Seeing that Su Changjiang's passenger door was not open yet, Liu Wenbin hurried over to help open the door.

Su Ziyu opened the back door of the car.

Everyone watched from a distance, not daring to get too close.

Su Changjiang was wearing a neat Zhongshan suit, shiny leather shoes, and stood straight. At first glance, he really had the style of a high-ranking official.

When Shen Zhihuan got down from the back seat, the group of middle-aged men in Zhongshan suits standing by the gate clearly straightened their chests.

There was also a hint of eagerness in his eyes.

Realizing this, the corners of Shen Zhihuan's lips slightly raised.

She really guessed it.

"Director Wang, Director He, Director Zeng, Accountant Zhang, let me introduce you. This is my relative-in-law, Comrade Su Changjiang, the Party Secretary of Panshi Village. This is my mother-in-law. This is my daughter-in-law's eldest sister-in-law. This is my daughter-in-law's second brother, Comrade Su Ziyu, and this is my daughter-in-law's second sister-in-law, Comrade Shen Zhihuan." Su Lixiu's mother-in-law introduced the people in Zhongshan suits.

The factory directors, managers, and accountants, all dressed in Zhongshan suits, shook hands warmly with Su Changjiang and Su Ziyu one by one.

Shen Zhihuan stood beside Su Ziyu, maintaining a decent curve at the corners of his mouth.

As everyone was chatting, Su Lixiu, who had just heard the news, hurried over.

After greeting Su Changjiang, Zhang Fengxia and Su Ziyu with a smile, Su Lixiu put her arm around Shen Zhihuan's. She looked so affectionate, as if Shen Zhihuan and she were very close.

Shen Zhihuan's expression didn't change at all, and he let her hold his arm and walk into the house.

The Liu family's yard is not really big; it can even be said to be a little pitifully small.

No wonder so many people are standing at the gate of the courtyard.

After sitting down in the main hall, the factory directors, managers and accountants started chatting with Su Changjiang and Su Ziyu in a familiar manner.

Having been the village party secretary for so many years, Su Changjiang is fluent in socializing.

If his young wife hadn't been sitting here, he would have just walked away.

Shen Zhihuan lowered his head and teased Xiao Qiping, treating those factory directors, managers, and accountants as just chirping little sparrows.

Occasionally, someone wanted to get close to Shen Zhihuan, but Shen Zhihuan would just smile and answer half a sentence perfunctorily.

They waited until the banquet started before Su Changjiang, Su Ziyu and Shen Zhihuan were able to escape.

Nowadays, there are not so many rules. Men and women, young and old, usually sit at a table with people they know, regardless of whether men sit at one table and women sit at another.

The Su family naturally sat together.

Su Changjiang and Su Zijun sat on one side, Zhang Fengxia and Zhou Xiuqiao sat on the other side. Children these days generally don't take up seats, so they squeezed in between Zhang Fengxia and Zhou Xiuqiao. Su Ziyu naturally sat on the same side with Shen Zhihuan.

Su Lili was not there, and the remaining party was finally occupied by the factory director surnamed Wang and the director surnamed He.

The chef hired by the Liu family is quite skilled. Although the dishes on the table are not as good as those at the Su family's wedding banquet, they are much better than those at ordinary family's banquets.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Except for Director Wang and Director He, the whole table was filled with members of the Su family, so no one felt awkward. The men drank and chatted, while Shen Zhihuan, Zhang Fengxia, and Zhou Xiuqiao chatted in low voices.

Children all like to be in a crowd. Seeing so many people, little Qiping also chattered non-stop. His childish words made everyone laugh.

Taking care of her has become a habit for Su Ziyu.

He knew exactly what she liked to eat and what she didn't like to eat.

Shen Zhihuan almost never picked up his chopsticks during the entire process.

What Su Ziyu picked up were all her favorite foods, and the bowl in front of her seemed to never be empty.

There is a square table with eight people sitting on it. The dishes on the table are also very particular. For example, steamed longan meat is usually served in eight pieces, one for each person.

There are also eight fried spring rolls in a plate, one for each person.

Everyone in the Su family knows that Shen Zhihuan likes to eat steamed longan meat.

When Su Ziyu picked up the first one, Zhou Xiuqiao also picked up her portion of steamed longan meat and put it into Shen Zhihuan's bowl.

Then came Zhang Fengxia and Su Changjiang...

Except for Su Zijun's portion which was given to Xiao Qiping, all the Su family members' steamed longan meat was put into Shen Zhihuan's bowl.

"Dad, Mom, I can't eat so much." Shen Zhihuan's mouth twitched.

Director Wang and Mr. He, who were sitting at the same table, looked at each other with complicated eyes.

"Eat as much as you can." The head of the family, Su Changjiang, said with a smile.

Just as Shen Zhihuan was about to give some of the longan meat in his bowl to Zhang Fengxia and Su Changjiang, Xiao Qiping picked up the longan meat in his bowl and put it into Shen Zhihuan's bowl.

"Second Aunt, you eat."

Shen Zhihuan's eyes suddenly felt hot...

"Eat more, so your stomach can expand and give birth to a little brother for me."

“…”

Shen Zhihuan's feeling of being touched disappeared in an instant.

"Second Aunt, please eat!" Seeing that Shen Zhihuan didn't move his chopsticks, Xiao Qiping pointed with his little fat finger.

"Second Aunt thinks it would be better to enlarge your belly so that you can give birth to a little brother faster." Shen Zhihuan smiled and picked up the longan meat that Xiao Qiping had poked into her bowl.

Little Qiping looked down at his own round belly seriously and nodded in agreement.

That childish look made everyone burst into laughter.

This attracted the attention of people at the next table.
