Chapter 162: Drunk
After Qin Huiyin picked up some food for the two of them, she ate quietly and stopped helping others pick up food.
Li Taohua went to talk to Zhou and introduced her to Xiang Chuntao and others to help Zhou integrate into the village as soon as possible.
"Brother Ze, are you okay?" Jiang Qibin noticed that Song Ruize looked strange.
Song Ruize waved his hand, lowered his head and said nothing.
Qin Huiyin touched his forehead, held his face, lifted his head up, looked into his eyes and said, "You are drunk."
His eyes were dazed and his cheeks were hot and red, obvious signs of being drunk.
"It was Brother Ze's first time drinking, and he got drunk after just one glass." Jiang Qibin smacked his lips.
"Brother Chen Yong, please carry my brother back to rest." Qin Huiyin said. "Okay."
Chen Yong carried Song Ruize on his back, but Song Ruize held her hand tightly.
Qin Huiyin was about to follow and take a look, but she heard Tang Yichen say, "Little sister, Aunt Li seems to have drunk too much."
Qin Huiyin looked back and saw Li Taohua and a few young ladies arm in arm, laughing together. Although they looked normal, they were obviously drunk.
She pulled her hand back and told Chen Yong, "Brother Chen Yong, help my brother cover himself with the quilt."
"Don't worry, sister."
Qin Huiyin watched Chen Yong carry Song Ruize away.
She turned and walked towards Li Taohua's table, snatched the cup from Li Taohua's hand, and replaced it with water: "Aunts and sisters-in-law, my mother is drunk, please don't let her drink."
"I can drink." Li Taohua pouted, "Please let me drink. I haven't drunk so much in years."
Seeing her like this, Qin Huiyin didn't dare to give her any more water.
The beauty's mother's coquettishness was really irresistible. However, her drinking habits were not good. She only drank with Mr. Tang San before and didn't make trouble for others, but now she was at someone else's banquet.
"Three cups at most, no more. If you promise me, I will allow you to drink a little more." Qin Huiyin found an empty seat and sat down.
"good."
The aunt next to her said enviously: "Taohua, you are still the best. Your daughter is so filial."
"Of course a daughter is better. I tell you, a daughter is much better than a son. You always favor sons over daughters, and you will regret it when you are old."
"Mom, you're starting to talk nonsense." Qin Huiyin pulled Li Taohua's sleeve.
Li Taohua held Qin Huiyin's hand and looked at her lovingly: "My Yinyin is a gift from God to me! Let alone one son, I wouldn't trade her even for ten sons."
Tang Sanmei looked at this scene with envy.
Mrs. Tang, who was standing next to her, patted Tang Sanmei on the head and said unhappily, "What are you looking at? Are you as smart as she is? Can you make so much money? If you can, I will worship you too."
Li Taohua turned around and looked at Tang sharply: "You mean to say that I treat my daughter well because she can make money? In your opinion, I won't treat her well if she can't make money?"
Tang laughed dryly and said, "No, Sister Taohua, I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about others. You are well-known in the village for being good to your daughter, and no one can doubt the relationship between you and your daughter."
Li Taohua snorted coldly and turned around.
Tang curled her lips, glared at Tang Sanmei fiercely, and scolded: "I asked you to watch your brother, and now he's gone, you still don't know how to keep an eye on him?"
"Mom, I'm not full yet." Tang Sanmei said aggrievedly.
She had been chasing her five-year-old brother around, and when he finally stopped, there was not much left on the table. Tang Xiaobao had some of the dishes left by the Tang family, but she didn't, so she only ate a few bites of stir-fried vegetables.
Tang Damei and Tang Ermei are helping with odd jobs. The Zhang family is generous. Anyone who is willing to help in the kitchen will receive 30 coins. Tang Damei is 14 years old and Tang Ermei is 13 years old. They are half-time workers and can earn 15 coins each. Tang arranged for them to help in the kitchen to earn some money for the family. Of course, Tang Damei and Tang Ermei are not eating now. But they are at another table, so at least they can eat. Tang Sanmei, however, has to take care of her brother on an empty stomach.
"You haven't eaten enough of this big table of delicious food? You must be a starving ghost reincarnated. All you do is eat all day long." Mrs. Tang said impatiently, "Go and take care of your brother."
Tang Sanmei was pinched several times, but she endured the pain and didn't cry out. Tears rolled down her eyes, and she looked so pitiful.
"Third sister..." Qin Huiyin called out to Tang Sanmei who was about to go out to look for Tang Xiaobao.
Tang Sanmei walked over: "Sister Huiyin."
"Take this and eat it." Qin Huiyin handed her two chicken legs.
"I..." Tang Sanmei looked back at Tang, and seeing that she was not paying attention to them, she thanked her quietly and ran away with the chicken leg.
"Your table is quite polite. No one wants to eat two such big chicken legs." The aunt next to me said with a smile.
"Maybe everyone doesn't like to eat chicken legs!" Qin Huiyin smiled faintly.
Aunt and the people around her: "..."
If you don’t like chicken legs, what do you like to eat?
It seems that the Tang family has really made a lot of money. Look at the way this family is dressed and their visibly rosier complexions. It is obvious that they have been living quite well recently.
"Dazhu, Erzhu are both married, isn't it time for you to consider it too?"
Zhang Dazhu said honestly: "No hurry, let's build our family first."
"Fortunately, you two have separated. Otherwise, your uncle would have owed so much money, and he would have had to burden you guys to help him pay it back."
"Yeah, I managed to escape this time."
Zhang Dazhui smiled and said nothing.
"Uncle, drink."
"Such a good banquet must have cost a lot of money, right?"
"Has your family become rich?"
"Yes, I heard that the betrothal gift to the Xiao family is five taels of silver. I see that this banquet has fish and meat, and there are so many good dishes. It can't be done without two taels of silver."
"We just separated, and you know our family situation. Where can we get the money? However, sister Huiyin introduced me to a big boss. The big boss ordered a batch of goods and paid a part of the deposit. I used the deposit to hold a wedding banquet for Erzhu. Erzhu came back on leave. He will stay for another day tomorrow and will go back to the dam to do his work the day after tomorrow. By the way, another part is the money Erzhu earned at the dam. Erzhu is working with Ruize now, and Ruize is the manager and takes special care of him. The brothers lent all their wages to Erzhu, and we will pay them back when our carpentry makes money."
"This girl Huiyin is so capable, and she even knows a big boss. Their family business must be very big!"
Qin Huiyin watched Li Taohua finish three glasses of wine, and said she would not let her drink any more. She helped Li Taohua back to the next room, let her lie on the bed, and brought hot water for her to wash her face and feet.
Tang Luwu and her brother also came back. They fed the bones they brought back to Momo, and as for steamed buns and dumplings, the two little puppies could already eat some chopped meat.
"Brother hasn't come back yet?" Qin Huiyin asked.
"Wang wants her son to attend a private school, and she pestered my eldest brother to ask many questions about tuition and expenses. I guess she is considering whether she can afford to support Tang Xiuyun!" Tang Luwu said.
"Brother is not drunk, right? He also drank a glass of wine today. When he comes back later, you can add some sugar water to give him to drink so that he can rest early."
"Are you going out?"
"Yes, I'll be back soon."
