Chapter 123 Proposal 1
Living room
Su's mother listened to Su Tao telling interesting stories about the countryside. It was so interesting that she couldn't stop laughing. From time to time, she also chatted with the little girl He Yanzhi.
"It's time to eat." Father Su came out with the fish. "Taotao, this is your favorite braised fish."
He Chuan also put the dishes he brought on the table. There were four dishes and one soup, with meat and vegetables, a complete meal.
Su Tao's living room was small, and there was no dedicated dining table. They usually used the coffee table for entertaining guests, and cleaned it up for dinner.
The five of them sat around the dinner table, and Dad Su took out the Moutai that He Chuan brought and placed it on the table.
Glancing at He Chuan, he asked, "Want to drink?"
"Drink, uncle, let me do it." He Chuan naturally took the bottle of wine and walked to Su's father and filled Su's father's glass.
Then he turned to look at his mother-in-law, "Auntie, would you like some?"
Su's mother shook her head and said, "No, you guys drink." She would have to clean up the mess if Old Su got drunk.
He Chuan stopped talking after hearing this, filled his own glass, raised it to his parents-in-law, and said affectionately and seriously: "Auntie and Uncle, thank you for raising Tao Tao and giving me the opportunity to meet her. I know Tao Tao has been pampered since she was a child. I will always pamper her, love her, and never let her feel sad."
Su's father and mother were very moved when they heard these words, and they could see the sincerity in He Chuan's eyes.
"Boy, you must remember what I said today. If you let Taotao suffer any injustice in the future, I will not let you go even if I risk my life." Dad Su stared at He Chuan's eyes steadily. If he showed any sign of escaping or retreating, he would not be willing to hand his daughter over to him.
"Don't worry, I will treat Tao Tao well and won't do anything to let her down." He Chuan promised frankly and firmly that he would protect Su Tao with his life and would not let her suffer any grievances.
"Hey, come on, drink." Dad Su raised his cup and drank it all in one gulp.
"Come on, don't just drink, eat some food." Su Tao picked up a piece of meat and put it into the bowls of Su's father, Su's mother, He Chuan and He Yanzhi in turn.
When Su Dad saw Su Tao pick up some food for himself first, he gave He Chuan a provocative look, meaning, "Look, Tao Tao is still thinking about me first." The sadness Su Dad felt for losing his daughter seemed to have faded a bit.
He Chuan looked at Su's father's expression and smiled a little. Naturally, he would not argue with Su's father. Old and young, Su's father seemed a little childish and cute to He Chuan. He finally knew who Su Tao inherited his eccentricity from.
After Su's father's heart knot was relieved, he seemed to be a little competitive and kept looking for He Chuan to drink. The two of them drank one glass after another and were very unhappy. In the end, Su's father simply moved the bench next to He Chuan.
Su Tao saw Su's father's behavior and shouted, "Dad, didn't you just quit drinking?"
"We're in a good mood today, so just drink a little." Dad Su laughed and hinted to He Chuan with his eyes.
"Yeah, my uncle is happy today, so it's okay for me to drink a few more glasses with him." He Chuan chimed in.
Su Tao glanced at him and said, "You are quite good at showing off. You are just taking advantage of the situation."
"Mom, Yanzhi, let's eat, ignore them." Su Tao finally let them go.
In the end, He Chuan was still only slightly tipsy, but Su's father was drunk and fell on the table, muttering: "You must be kind to us."
"Taotao is the treasure of our family." "If you make her sad, I won't let you go."
Su Tao looked at his old father, a warm feeling passed through his heart and his eyes became a little moist.
