Chapter 555 The Old Man is Coming
As the sun set, the Su family's banquet was coming to an end, and some of the bowls on the table were empty.
The children could not eat anymore, so the village women began to scramble for the next dish with their empty bowls.
This is the local custom in Shuanghe Village. Any unfinished food at the banquet can be packed up and taken away.
When the villagers were busy scrambling for vegetables, Miss Hu San hurried over with her husband and a few of her men.
Why did it take so long for him to come? Of course, it was because Miss Hu San asked her old man to dress up before coming out.
She hoped that after her husband had dressed up carefully, he would be able to match the handsome and elegant young man in her mind, the young man she had always been unable to give up...
Although Hu Meili's husband is over 40 years old, he is still quite handsome. Compared with the young men in Shuanghe Village, he is still far ahead.
Especially since he dressed up specially before going to the countryside today, he made the rough guys in the countryside feel ashamed of themselves.
It was winter, and he wore a white shirt underneath, which made his old face look much whiter than that of the average rough guy.
Wear a V-neck sweater in the middle and a long coat on the outside.
Although he has a bit of a beer belly, he is not a greasy uncle with a big belly, and his trousers are ironed straight.
Her hair was combed meticulously and even smeared with mousse, and she looked energetic.
There was no main road in Shuanghe Village at that time, so everyone had to walk into the village, and the mayor was no exception.
Usually when he went to the countryside, as soon as he reached the village entrance, he would be greeted by villagers lining the streets and children following him from a distance.
But today no one came to greet them. What was even more outrageous was that he had walked halfway through the village and still hadn't seen anyone.
He hadn't been treated so coldly in many years, but he suppressed his unhappiness and didn't show it on his face at all.
Even Miss Hu San didn't realize that he was very unhappy, while Hu Meili walked towards the Su family as if she knew the way.
They saw from a distance that there were dozens of tables in front of the Su family’s door.
She deliberately spoke loudly, but no one paid any attention to them because the village chief was sitting in the main room and could not see them.
Normally, the villagers were very welcoming when they saw her husband, but today, the men were busy eating meat.
The women were busy packing up the leftovers on the table and no one paid any attention to the couple.
The bowls and chopsticks on the table were borrowed from various households in the village, so they were busy looking for their own bowls to grab the leftovers on the table, preparing to take them home as a snack for the children tomorrow.
The mayor can't compare to the aroma of pork!
So the mayor was left out by the villagers.
Hu Meili was so angry that her teeth almost broke. She shouted loudly from a distance while walking on her high heels.
"Dad, Mom, second brother, are you all okay? Did my sister-in-law's eldest brother bully you?"
However, no one responded to her.
Because the table chosen by the Hu family was closer to the main hall, it made them appear closer to the Su family.
When the banquet just started, everyone would sit down and eat politely, but when they were halfway through the meal, they would stand up to grab the food for convenience.
So the villagers who stood up blocked the Hu family's sight. Perhaps the Hu family was also eating so fast that they had no time to pay attention to others.
When Miss Hu San saw that her parents didn't respond, she rushed over to hug them and asked tearfully, "Mom and Dad, why didn't you respond when I called you?"
"Meili is back, don't cry, your son-in-law is still here watching you, it doesn't look good to cry like that."
Father Hu looked at his daughter with disdain, saying, "She is so inconsiderate! I'm trying to grab the meat!"
After he said that, he quickly stuffed a piece of delicious meat into his mouth.
After wolfing down a few mouthfuls, he turned to his son-in-law and gave him a flattering look, "Xiao Zhang, don't be surprised. Although our third daughter has been spoiled since she was a child, she is quite sensible."
Father Hu said this against his will. In fact, he was blaming his own daughter for being so ignorant that she even interrupted him while he was eating meat.
What a pity! His daughter interfered and he had to eat less meat! Because his son, daughter-in-law and grandchildren refused to give him any, he had to grab it himself.
"Dad, who are you talking about as spoiled? I'm not spoiled!" Hu Meili immediately retorted when she heard her father say that about her.
Hu's father glared at him, his eyes seemed to say: You dare to talk back, believe it or not, I will beat you to death! But he dared not say a word in front of his son-in-law, as if he was frightened by his daughter. In fact, he lowered his head and chewed the meat in his mouth.
Hu Meili was frightened by her father's cruelty. She immediately shut her mouth and kept silent, looking at her husband pitifully.
She hoped he could say a few words for her, and the old man did not disappoint her.
He touched his little wife's head and comforted her: "Okay, okay, I can afford to support you no matter how spoiled you are. It's okay, don't bother with the old man."

Hu Er's wife was almost full. She knew that her sister-in-law would definitely cause trouble for her eldest sister-in-law if she asked her husband to come.
She just loves watching the show, but she won't say anything. She pretends to go to other tables to grab food and take it home, which is something her mother-in-law particularly likes.
Whether her younger aunt wins or that bitch Su Ermei wins, she is happy to see it and feels extremely happy inside.
She is not stupid, she just has bad luck and has no strong family to support her, so her life is miserable.
Brother Hu immediately said to his brother-in-law: "The village chief and the others are in the main hall. I'll take you there."
"I'm not going in. You go and call them out." The old man said very unhappily.
He had already arrived at the door of the Su family, but the village chief was still putting on airs and refused to come out to greet him.
Brother Hu was very afraid of Su Shuoci before, but now that his brother-in-law came to support them, he shouted confidently at the door of the main hall.
"Listen to me, the mayor is here, come out and greet him."
Su Shuoci had amazing hearing, and he knew it as early as when Hu Meili brought her man into the village.
But he pretended not to know and kept calmly persuading the village chief and others to drink.
The village chief was drunk at the time, so he naturally didn't know that his immediate superior had arrived. Even when Hu Er shouted at the door, he didn't respond.
Several elderly people in the village were also drunk, so the task of entertaining the mayor fell on Su Shuoci.
Su Shuoci was too disdainful to go out and face Hu Meili, so he called out to the next table: "Han Jinghong, Song Zijie, go out and take care of things. I'll have a few more drinks with them."
He knew the Han family's status in Yunhe County, so he was not afraid that Han Jinghong would not be able to handle it, not to mention there was also Song Zijie.
"Don't worry, Brother Su. We will solve the problem perfectly. Just have a few more drinks with Uncle Su and the others." Song Zijie promised, patting his chest.
Han Jinghong had a good alcohol tolerance and didn't get drunk, but Song Zijie had been in poor health since childhood and couldn't drink, so the two of them were very sober.
"Who is making noises outside?" Han Jinghong asked majestically, his whole body exuding an aura of eight meters.
The old man didn't expect to meet the Han family here. He immediately put down his attitude and asked, "Comrade Han... why are you here?"
