Looking at Jiang Zhihao who raised his neck and drank the entire glass of wine, Shao Hailan still felt a little disturbed.
But she didn't show it, instead she snorted and muttered: "What's the use of just being able to be nice and obedient, your ears are calloused from hearing it!"
Although the words were unpleasant, she was being polite by not directly scolding Jiang Zhihao for acting.
From this point of view, Jiang Zhihao's dumplings still played some role, otherwise Shao Hailan would not have listened to so much nonsense from him.
Then, Jiang Zhihao took the initiative to pour wine for Zhong Wenxing and said some compliments, which made his old father-in-law smile till the back of his ears. Now Zhong Wenxing finds Jiang Zhihao pleasing to him no matter how he looks at him. He even wonders whether he knew too little about this son-in-law before.
Don't know who he is?
As for Shao Hailan, although she had no intention of talking to Jiang Zhihao and was only minding her own business with Lingling peeling off the king crab's legs, it was a good thing that she didn't chase them away again.
Overall, this meal was in line with Jiang Zhihao's expectations.
When the meal was almost done, the door was opened and Zhong Jiaxi walked in.
His expression was a little haggard. When he saw a room full of people, he was stunned for a moment. Then he realized what he was doing and shouted in surprise: "Sister, when did you come? Why didn't you tell me."
"Have you eaten not long after you arrived? There are still some dumplings left. If they are not enough, ask your brother-in-law to make some more for you." Zhong Jiawei said.
"Yes, yes, these dumplings taste really good. Come sit down and eat the dumplings and nibble on the king crab!" Zhong Wenxing waved happily, his face was already red from drinking, and the bottle of wine was almost empty.
"Brother-in-law can also make dumplings?" Zhong Jiaxi said as he walked over.
Shao Hailan was surprised when he heard that his son hated Jiang Zhihao. How could he be willing to call him brother-in-law? In the past, he had always called him by his first name, and sometimes even called him a bunny, a bastard, and so on.
Seeing that the family members were very polite to Jiang Zhihao, Shao Hailan felt very awkward and couldn't help but said: "Why did you come back so late? You just got off work?"
When talking about work, Zhong Jiaxi's expression changed again. He looked hesitant, then gritted his teeth and said, "I resigned."
As soon as he said this sentence, the whole room fell silent.
Shao Hailan looked at Zhong Jiaxi and asked blankly: "What did you say?"
"I said, I resigned." Anyway, the words had been spoken, and Zhong Jiaxi did not hesitate anymore. He took a deep breath and said: "And I mortgaged my house and borrowed 300,000 yuan to start a company. I just started today.
Register the company."
Only then did Shao Hailan notice that he was holding a portfolio in his hand.
If she just resigned, Shao Hailan might be better off, but even her house was mortgaged, which made her jump up, grab the bowl on the table, and throw it at Zhong Jiaxi.
While smashing, he also yelled hysterically: "You prodigal son, are you crazy! Resign? You have a damn ability. If you resign, you will eat and drink whatever you want! You don't even want the house, you want to be angry to death."
Me! I, I have to beat you to death today!"
With that said, Shao Hailan ran to the side, picked up a broom, and whipped Zhong Jiaxi on him.
Zhong Jiaxi knew that this incident would definitely cause great trouble to his parents. He was mentally prepared to let Shao Hailan vent his anger without talking back or evading.
Zhong Wenxing was also frightened out of his drunken state. Although he was equally angry to death, he was more stable than Shao Hailan after all.
Seeing that his son's face was completely red and swollen from being whipped by the broom, he quickly went over and grabbed Shao Hailan: "If you have something to say, please say it. Stop fighting."
