"Your mother and I are working so hard just to earn some respect for you. There aren't many times when we can help you, so you have to rely on yourselves. When you're working at the company, you have to be responsible, innovative, and motivated. Only leaders like you."
"I know, Dad. We will try our best."
"Hey, we should have invited Xiaochen here today. Since my son and son-in-law are here, we can have a drink together."
"Dad, didn't Deng Chen's sister-in-law give birth to a child? One child has kept the whole family busy.
This year, the three of them, father and son, were preparing for the New Year. Deng Chen was busy shopping, while his father was busy in the kitchen for several days. So he didn't have time to come over.
"There is a new child in the family. He may seem insignificant, but he is responsible for all the trivial matters and cannot be left without someone." Ying's mother is also looking forward to having a child.
Just waiting for the two children to get married and give birth to a child for them.
After half a year's effort, the couple had saved more than a thousand yuan, which was a comfortable life for most families.
When the son came back, he gave them a few hundred yuan, and the daughter did the same, giving them a few hundred yuan to buy New Year's goods.
They don't need so much for the New Year. Yinghan brings things home from time to time.
She couldn't even remember when she had bought rice or flour. In short, as long as her daughter was at home, their family never lacked anything.
This is Deng Chen’s first time visiting new relatives this year (that is, interactions before marriage), and there are many rules to follow.
Chicken, duck, and fish are indispensable, and you also need to bring lots of snacks, cigarettes, and alcohol.
Deng Chen came to their house with a box full of things in the trunk.
The neighbors around were all jealous, because they all knew that the youngest son of the Deng family had a disabled arm and was not very good at his job.
Why did he suddenly drive to the girl's house and buy so many things?
They all think that appearances are not the best guide. "These two couples have really experienced a lot of ups and downs. I heard that Wang Xiu'e and Jiang Qi are divorced."
"What's going on, Aunt Li?" As the matchmaker between the two couples, Aunt Li has the most say. Deng Chen didn't forget her today and specially brought her two boxes of snacks and two big red fish.
Aunt Li sighed. "Who can really explain how a couple lives? They're all attracted to each other when they first meet, and they want to marry each other. But how their lives pan out in the end is up to them. As their matchmaker, I'm both their success and their failure."
"Auntie Li, please don't be so upset. You're a famous matchmaker in our area. We're all counting on you to find a good match for our children."
"Yes, Aunt Li, the Ying family has two good children. Chief Ying's son is also top-notch. Are you planning to introduce him to someone?"
"Hey, such a good person, how could I not pay attention to him? I asked Teacher Yun, and his son works in another city, so he might settle down there, so I gave up."
"Oh, what a pity. I don't know which girl has this blessing."
"Didn't you bring back a girl two years ago?"
"I really didn't care. The two children of the Ying family don't show up very often."
Aunt Li went home with the gifts.
Several neighbors here started talking about Ying Han and Wang Xiu'e.
Last year, I thought Ying Han and Deng Chen being together was a joke.
One had a crippled hand and the other was disfigured, but in the blink of an eye, not only did the other's face heal, but I heard that the boy from the Deng family's arm is expected to recover.
"My second sister's house is next to the Wang family's house. The second son of the Wang family got divorced not long after getting married. He had an affair outside and even abandoned his wife and children when she was pregnant. He is really heartless.
His own son was not in the right, but he still interfered with others. Now, his retribution has come.
My daughter is getting divorced. It really is a changing of the guard.”
"When they were in the compound, they had no moral integrity. You have to remember that a dog will always eat shit."
The opinions of these outsiders cannot be influenced, and they never care.
The Ying family had a family reunion behind closed doors. Ying's father and Ying Li agreed to get Deng Chen drunk today.
Then test Deng Chen’s drinking habits.
The three of them drank two bottles of white wine, and Deng Chen was drunk by his father and fell on the table.
Ying Li couldn't bear to drink anymore, so he went to the toilet to vomit twice and then went to sleep in his room.
Mr. Ying is okay, except that he talks a lot when he's drunk.
Ying's mother complained while helping him upstairs to rest.
Deng Chen couldn't leave. Ying Han looked at Deng Chen lying on the table, chuckled, and whispered in his ear, "They're all gone."
Deng Chen looked up with red eyes, then turned to look at Ying Han and said, "Take me to your room." There was a hint of grievance in his tone.
Ying Han smiled and helped him walk upstairs.
Although I didn't drink to the point of losing my mind, my legs were already feeling unsteady and I couldn't walk steadily.
Ying Han helped him upstairs and laid him on her bed.
As a result, Deng Chen, who had just laid down, grabbed her hand and brought her into his arms, hugging her from behind. "I missed you, girl."
Ying Han turned her back to him, leaned into his arms and smiled, "It's only been a few days since we last met."
"I can't live without seeing you for a day. Stay with me for a while."
"My mother won't come up until she sees us."
Deng Chen didn't listen and held her tightly.
Ying Han had no choice but to let him do it.
Less than two minutes later, my mother was shouting downstairs.
Ying Han quickly got up, walked to the stairs and said, "Mom, I'll help Deng Chen to the bed to rest for a while."
Ying's mother was stunned downstairs, feeling that it was inappropriate. She wanted to say something but couldn't. Finally, she said, "I'll make some hangover soup. Let him drink some."
"Okay." Ying Han came down to help Deng Chen bring a bowl up.
In just a few minutes, Deng Chen fell asleep. Ying Han shook his head and smiled slightly, saying to himself, "He fell asleep pretty quickly."
As she said this, she helped him cover the quilt and went downstairs with the bowl.
"Why didn't you drink it?" Ying's mother asked curiously when she saw that it was still a hot bowl.
"Asleep."
Ying's mother was very satisfied and said with a smile, "He fell asleep quite quickly. He has good drinking habits. He didn't say a word even when he was drunk. He just fell asleep immediately. It saved us a lot of trouble."
Ying Han was afraid that she would go back into the house and her mother would be worried, so she stayed in the living room with her mother in the afternoon, watching TV and eating melon seeds.
At about five o'clock, Ying's mother got up to cook dinner. Ying Han went up to take a look at Deng Chen and found that he was still sleeping soundly. He quietly closed the door, gently got into bed, and lay in his arms.
Dishonestly, touching his handsome face.
The next second, Deng Chen pressed down on her and kissed her with a drunken whiff. "Girl."
"A smell of alcohol, goodbye."
"Who let you in?"
"I saw you were sleeping soundly, so I wanted to sleep with you for a while."
"In the end, you woke me up."
Ying Han blushed, two dimples on her cheeks faintly visible, and she smiled and said, "Get up when you wake up. My mother is making dinner."
Deng Chen raised his eyebrows and looked at the time, realizing it was already past five o'clock. "Have I slept for so long?"
He said as he quickly sat up.
