We sat together until after ten o'clock, when the women of the Xu family took the initiative to go into the kitchen and took Xu Wenjing's nephew away.
Without the restraint of the eldest sister Xu Wenjing, the brother-in-law also became unrestrained and proudly showed off his status as a civil servant.
"Xiao Feng, Xiao Zhou, go to the county and ask around. Who doesn't know Li Chen from the Industrial and Commercial Administration Bureau?"
As guests, Zhou Yan and Qin Ruoshu were embarrassed to discredit each other, and Xu's father was embarrassed to prevent his son-in-law from doing so in front of outsiders.
You brag about your bullshit and I just ignore it...
Fortunately, the Xu family's half-sky cooks are superb, and they only came over for ten minutes before starting to serve the food, which silenced a certain person's mouth.
Soon, Zhou Yan found that he was too happy: after the Xu family brother-in-law picked up the wine glass, he was about to go to heaven.
Fortunately, Feng Jun's cheap brother-in-law Li Chen has not forgotten his "own job" - to persuade people to drink.
However, after half a catty of Fenjiu, brother-in-law Li Chen no longer knew his surname, so he kept trying to persuade Feng Jun to drink.
"Xiao Feng, we will be a family soon. If you don't drink, you are looking down on me! Drink!"
When Zhou Yan saw Li Chen and his cousin working hard, he was naturally not polite. He smiled and picked up the wine glass: "Brother Li, I'll give you one!"
"Brother Li, good things come in pairs, I did it, you can do whatever you want!"
"Brother Li, Sanyang Kaitai..."
Next is the four seasons of getting rich, five blessings, and six or six fortunes...
Zhou Yan really wanted to have a perfect drink, but when he drank the Qixing Gaozhao, his brother-in-law Li Chen had already been put under the table.
"Uncle Xu, I'm really sorry, I thought Brother Li had to weigh three kilograms..."
Although I knocked someone down out of revenge, I still got the courtesy.
Father Xu naturally knew that Zhou Yan's purpose in attacking Li Chen was to encircle Wei and save Zhao. He couldn't say anything. He just smiled knowingly and said, "That's good, let Xiao Li see the drinking capacity of a real master in the wine shop..."
"you flatter me!"
After lunch, Xu's mother arranged a place for Zhou Yan and Qin Ruoshu to stay. Although the Xu family is considered a well-off family here, there are only a few guest rooms: Xu Wenjing's sister and her family are crowded together, Xu Wenjing and Qin Ruoshu live in one room.
Zhou Yan and his cousin Feng Jun lived in the same room.
Xu Wenjing's younger brother was "kicked out of the house" and lived with a neighbor.
Zhou Yan only lay on the bed for a short while, then picked up the phone and sent a message to Qin Ruoshu, asking her to go out in the name of Kan Scenery.
"Xiao Zhou, why don't you sleep a little longer?"
"This is my first time in northern Shaanxi and I want to see the scenery of the Loess Plateau..."
"What's so good about loess lumps..." Even so, Father Xu did not dissuade him.
After Zhou Yan and Qin Ruoshu left Xu's house, they followed the winding village path and climbed to the high level behind the village.
"Honey, you asked me to come out, you really didn't want to see the scenery together, right?" Qin Ruoshu sat cross-legged on the cushion brought out by Zhou Yan, facing the warm spring breeze in the afternoon, looking at the endless cracked plateau.
"Is there anything else?" Zhou Yan smiled like a thief.
"Can't there be something else in there?" Qin Ruoshu's smile contained a hint of gossip, "For example, the story that my brother-in-law and my sister-in-law have to tell?"
"How did you find out?" Zhou Yan was very calm and continued to look at the horizon.
"I have always been very curious about the origin of Sister Xu's mysophobia, but I never thought that it would be related to her brother-in-law." Qin Ruoshu sighed slightly, "By the way, hubby, do you think my cousin and Xu Wenjing...
"
"When I met my cousin, Sister Xu was still in perfect condition," Zhou Yan sighed slightly, "His brother-in-law still had delusions..."
"Oh?" Qin Ruoshu nodded, thought for a while, then turned around and stared at Zhou Yan seriously, "Husband, if someone cares about your wife, what are you going to do?"
"Send him to practice the Sunflower Manual," Zhou Yan gritted his teeth viciously, "By the way, you have a talk with Xu Wenjing tonight, you tell her like this..."
At dinner, brother-in-law Li Chen was still hungover. Although there was one less person, the dinner was much more harmonious: Xu Wenjing, who was somewhat silent, talked a lot, and the two sisters, who rarely communicated with each other, also interacted a lot more...
After dinner, Zhou Yan returned to the room with his notebook in his arms, while Qin Ruoshu asked Xu Wenjing out mysteriously.
Xu Wenjing was not stupid. She knew that it was Zhou Yan's idea for Qin Ruoshu to date her. She slowly approached Qin Ruoshu and touched the cool evening breeze with her hand: "Ruoshu, call me out. What's the matter?"
"Sister Jing, I won't beat around the bush with you," Qin Ruoshu chuckled, "Where do you want to work after graduating from graduate school?"
"When you marry a chicken, follow the chicken; when you marry a dog, follow the dog!" Xu Wenjing sighed slightly, "It's just..."
"Brother Jun..." Qin Ruoshu smiled, "The family will only care about whether she is married or not, and will not stop Brother Jun from making his own choice..."
Saying that, Qin Ruoshu looked at Xu Wenjing who looked calm carefully: "Sister Jing, apart from your parents, siblings, you probably don't think much about Mizhi anymore, right?"
Xu Wenjing's heart suddenly beat a beat slower for no reason: "What do you mean?"
Qin Ruoshu ignored Xu Wenjing and muttered to himself quietly: "With the strength of our Xinghan Group, it is very easy to prevent an arrogant little civil servant from being promoted in his lifetime!"
Xu Wenjing's heart suddenly sank to the bottom: "You..."
"Some things are meaningless if you put them on the surface," Qin Ruoshu smiled, "There is no better way to destroy a person than to defeat her in the place where he is most proud..."
"But……"
"Sister Wenmin's side is very simple," Qin Ruoshu said with a relaxed expression, "The most fundamental poverty alleviation is to support education. Sister Wenmin is an educator. Whether she is in business or politics, she has a lot of room for maneuver..."
Xu Wenjing fell silent for a while, and then stared at Qin Ruoshu quietly for a long time: "Why do you want to help me like this?"
"Who told you to be Feng Jun's pet peeve?" Qin Ruoshu smiled helplessly, "You should know that our family member and Feng Jun are both brothers and children...
In the afternoon, Zhou Yan told me that when he was a child, he and his cousin went to dig up cicada monkeys and sell them for money. No matter how big the difference between their gains was, in the final settlement, they would definitely share the proceeds equally."
"But, I have mysophobia..."
"Lao Zhou and I won't publicize the specific inside story," Qin Ruoshu glanced in the direction of the village, "Feng Jun, who sees beauty in the eye of the beholder, will definitely not care."
Xu Wenjing smiled bitterly: "What about your family?"
"You are living with Feng Jun," Qin Ruoshu smiled bitterly and shook his head, "If you don't want to go back to Dongyang with Feng Jun, you can ask Lao Zhou to arrange you to other places, the capital, the Magic City, Yangcheng..."
"No need, I will try to find a way with them..." Xu Wenjing smiled, with a hint of envy, "I heard that your wedding to Zhou Yan is scheduled to be during the summer vacation? Congratulations!"
"Sister Jing, you're welcome..." Qin Ruoshu's congratulations to Xu Wenjing were naturally very useful, "Feng Jun should propose to you soon!"
Xu Wenjing nodded and thought for a while: "Ruoshu, a while ago, I heard from my colleagues that there seems to be a branch of Anxin Mall over there in Jingbian?"
"Indeed," Qin Ruoshu nodded, "Anxin Mall is mainly engaged in specialty agriculture and poverty alleviation projects. Currently, there are several small projects in Jingbian..."
