Before noon, the loudspeaker in the village was already shouting.
This is the banquet where Kong Xiaoxu and Tang Wei got pregnant.
It's also a joke. The two couples did this just to disgust Li Fan, but before they could disgust Li Fan, the people in the village had already started whispering.
On the one hand, the two of them were too public, and it was impossible for them to make their pregnancy known to the whole city.
Secondly, except for their family, no one holds any pregnancy celebrations. It is impossible for everyone to eat for free, so naturally they have to give gifts. But other than his family, there is no other family that would be so weird, so the villagers wanted to have this meal today.
Suiting a gift can be regarded as beating a dog with a meat bun. You will never come back, so naturally you will have opinions in your heart.
However, Tang Wei's father held an important position in the village, so it was best not to offend him.
So everyone came to the banquet with fake smiles on their faces. They came as much as the family could, hoping to get back their money as much as possible. They secretly scolded the family for being cowards.
Naturally, Li Fan brought his parents to Tang Wei's house.
After the delivery man left in the morning, he studied a medicinal powder in the cellar, specially used to "add a bonus" to the two of them.
The Tang family was very lively today. There was a Dapeng placed in the courtyard and it was filled with seats. It was already full of people when they arrived.
Li Fan glanced at him and saw that almost all the people in the village, old and young, were here today. After all, he was a cadre and had an important position in the village, so everyone gave him great respect.
Even though he had a happy smile on his face, it was unclear what he was thinking in his heart.
Li Fan and his father went to the table they were friends with in the village. There were all men at the table, while his mother went to Aunt Guihua’s table and sat with the women they were friends with.
This is how banquets in rural areas are. Once they arrive at the banquet, as if everyone has discussed it in advance, men and women will be seated separately.
At this time, Tang Guoqiang, Tang Wei's father, spoke proudly in the spring breeze, which probably meant that his daughter-in-law Kong Xiaoxu was pregnant today, and he welcomed all the fellow villagers to come and support him, and treat everyone to a good meal and a drink.
Then the banquet officially started. The dishes for this kind of banquet are all prepared in advance, so soon the hot and cold dishes were served on a whole table.
The Tang family also specially used the village speakers to play festive music, for fear that someone in the village would not hear it or come.
Today, Kong Xiaoxu and Tang Wei are also dressed like dogs. Tang Wei is wearing a straight suit, his face is red, and even the buttons of the suit are about to fall apart due to his big belly. Kong Xiaoxu is wearing a red cheongsam, looking like a wedding toast
Likewise, maybe she knew she was pregnant and felt her belly from time to time.
People are in high spirits during happy events. The two of them smiled and chatted with everyone they saw, and it looked like they would toast at each other's tables soon.
Li Fan looked at the tray with wine behind them and raised the corner of his mouth. Didn't these two people want to make him sick? He wanted to see who was the one who was embarrassed and uncomfortable for a while.
He stood up and made a special detour to pass by the tray with the wine. He flicked his fingers nearby and the colorless and odorless medicinal powder was poured into the wine. The two people who were concentrating on talking to the villagers did not notice it at all.
Li Fan behind him.
In order not to make others suspicious, he went to the toilet on purpose. When he came back, Kong Xiaoxu and Kong Xiaoxu were already toasting at each table.
Li Fan sat down to eat the food calmly and accepted the gift. Naturally, he wanted to have a good meal today and watch a big show by the way. No matter how he thought about it, it would not be a loss.
Everything seemed to go very smoothly during the next toast. Li Fan sat at the table and ate the food calmly. However, Wang Hongxia couldn't sit still. She looked at this woman who had caused her son and his family a big fall and this wicked man.
The man was holding a happy event with a smile and became very angry.
Why is God so unfair? The diligent and honest people in their family live in poverty, but why do these wicked people live so happily?
Especially this banquet, it was clearly meant to humiliate his son.
Xiao Fan said that he wanted to show them today, but nothing happened at this hour. During the banquet, Wang Hongxia's eyes looked like Li Fan from time to time, and she wanted to ask him what was going on, but Li Fan's eyes were helpless
I can't always get along with her.
In fact, Li Fan had already seen the hint in Wang Hongxia's eyes, but it was not yet time. A good show always has to turn around at the climax to be the best, right?
After a while, the two of them came to Li Fan's table to toast.
"Hey, isn't this Li Fan? How about today, your sister-in-law Xiaoxu is pregnant. Why don't you send her blessings? After all, you two were so close before."
Li Fan faced Tang Wei's provocation without raising his eyelids and continued to eat calmly.
The busy people in the courtyard suddenly became quiet, and they all stretched their necks to look here. Although it has been some years, we are all in a small village, and no one knows that Kong Xiaoxu was once Li Fan's boss.
Girlfriend in hand.
But as Li Fan remained calm, the originally lively atmosphere gradually turned awkward.
Often in this situation, if the person being provoked does not respond, over time, the person who took the initiative to provoke will become extremely embarrassed.
"Are you that hungry? That's right. Your family is so poor. It's rare for you to eat such good meat and fish. Let's eat more today so that we don't miss out on the first meal."
Wang Hongxia was originally a person with a good temper, but she was strong without a mother. Seeing her son being ridiculed like this, she could no longer control her emotions. She slapped the table and stood up.
"Tang Wei, what are you trying to do? Even if you don't think about yourself, you still want to do some good for the child in Xiaoxu's belly."
"Oh, Aunt Wang, why are you so angry? I know my son is not living up to expectations, and you will inevitably be angry. Did I mention your sore point? I'm really sorry. I don't have any great merits, I just like you.
to be honest."
"Speaking of which, at Li Fan's age, he is still alone. If it weren't for...haha, you should be the grandma now."
"You... our Li family will not want such a dishonest person as our daughter-in-law!" Wang Hongxia was so angry at Tang Wei's words that her face turned red.
Seeing his mother so angry, Li Fan naturally couldn't sit idly by.
"Mom, don't argue with him. Facing a dying person will only add fuel to the fire."
Li Fan looked at Tang Wei while eating the food and couldn't help shaking his head, as if he was hesitant to speak.
"Fart, what the hell are you talking about? You're going to die. I'm in great health. Li Fan, don't be here. You can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth!"
Li Fan ignored Tang Wei's words, which made him more credible in the eyes of everyone. On the contrary, Tang Wei was irritated and looked a little angry.
