"It's good to understand, it's good to understand, come, Xiao Liu, I salute you for this first glass of wine. Su Yirou was ashamed of the contrast between her careful thinking and Liu Chen's generosity, but there was no way, she had to do it for the sake of her daughter, she knew that Li Xiangqun couldn't pull this face, in order to express her apology and sincerity, she took the initiative to toast Liu Chen, and drank the red wine in the cup in one gulp.

Liu Chen was startled when he saw Su Yirou so bold, and hurriedly advised, "Auntie, drink slowly." After speaking, he also took a big sip of the liquor in the cup to show his sincerity, after all, he was a junior, he didn't pour the wine, and he didn't have the first toast, Liu Chen was also a little embarrassed.

Strictly speaking, Su Yirou's series of reactions and words just now are a bit out of shape, which is completely different from the dignified and noble image when they first met, now she is more like an ordinary woman, as a child's mother, Liu Chen certainly needs to understand, if Xiaomei has a boyfriend in the future, to the point of talking about marriage, Aunt Lin will definitely be like Su Yirou now, no matter how she usually has no quarrel with the world, she will inevitably fight for her daughter's future at this moment.

Li Xiangqun, as a father, did not interject a word in the whole process, in this kind of thing, he chose to shut up and let Su Yirou express it was the most correct choice, because he couldn't ask many questions and words at all, even if he really wanted to put pressure on Liu Chen, the effect would not be better than Su Yirou, and the words asked were just that, besides, Liu Chen had already made a promise, what they could think of, Liu Chen had already thought of it, and Liu Chen's love for Li Rongfei was no less than theirs.

The topic was all said, and after Li Xiangqun waited for Su Yirou to finish toasting, he also took the initiative to toast Liu Chen to express his slight apologies in his heart.

"Xiao Liu, uncle toasts you. Li Xiangqun picked up his wine glass and said to Liu Chen with a smile.

Liu Chen just put down the wine glass, ready to slow down a little and then toast, but he didn't expect Li Xiangqun to salute first, Liu Chen once again missed the opportunity to take the initiative to toast, got up apologetically in surprise, held the wine glass with both hands under Li Xiangqun's wine glass, and said respectfully: "Thank you, uncle, thank you, hehe." ”

missed two toasts in a row, Liu Chen expressed his sincerity, and took a sip of the three taels of white wine in the wine glass, which was so bold that Li Rongfei on the side was worried.

"You drink slowly, why do you drink so hard in your own family. ”

Li Xiangqun also hurriedly persuaded: "Yes, Xiao Liu, drink slowly, let's drink slowly and talk slowly, don't be in a hurry, anyway, there will be nothing to do in the afternoon." ”

Liu Chen grinned, his mind was still thinking about Xiao Yang's concern about Xishi Village, and there were still very important things to deal with in the afternoon, and he just hoped for a quick solution, but Li Xiangqun seemed to mean to fight a protracted war, and Liu Chen felt a little embarrassed.

The only way is to quickly drink Li Xiangqun down, or call for something temporarily, Liu Chen glanced at the time, this lunch has only passed half an hour, and it seems a little unpleasant to end in half an hour, so he plans to continue drinking for a while.

"Uncle, if we don't have anything to do today, let's have a good drink, how about it?" Liu Chen said a seemingly casual kind sentence, which used the assumption, if there is nothing to do, this not only maintains the face at the moment, but also has a reason to leave after a while.

Li Xiangqun didn't think much about it and agreed: "Okay, hehe, I haven't had a good drink with someone for a long time, the kind of good wine that completely puts aside the wine table for socializing, and Xiao Liu and I want to have a good drink today." ”

Liu Chen's smile tightened instantly, he listened to Li Xiangqun's words, and an unbearable emotion emerged, Li Xiangqun, as the leader of the Municipal Education Bureau, will definitely not be less social, but he has never drunk a good wine that completely puts aside his interests, this time he took the initiative to place expectations, this is to treat himself as a family, he feels that he can't live up to this expectation casually, the atmosphere in this scene, he can't destroy it selfishly.

Liu Chen nodded, then picked up the wine bottle, filled Li Xiangqun's wine glass with wine, and then filled it for himself, at this time he noticed that the red wine in Su Yirou's wine glass on the side was almost bottoming out, and then picked up the red wine bottle and poured Su Yirou's wine glass, this time he took the initiative to toast: "Uncle and aunt, I salute the two of you for this glass of wine, thank you for giving birth to such an excellent daughter, and thank you for looking up to me and letting me take care of her for a lifetime, I will do it first as respect, you two are free." ”

After speaking, Liu Chen tilted his neck, and the liquor gurgled into his throat like boiled water, and his face did not change and his heart did not beat, and his mental state was even better than before he drank it.

Seeing this, Li Xiangqun and Su Yirou hurriedly drank the wine in their wine glasses, and no one was to be outdone, and lit up the wine glasses, which made Liu Chen a little surprised, and it seemed that he needed to re-evaluate the "wine game" of this lunch.

Look at this situation, this meal at noon, he is going to be a pair of two, Liu Chen shook his initial decision slightly, in order to avoid embarrassment, he glanced at Li Rongfei, and joked with a smile: "Uncle and aunt's alcohol is really good, but it seems that Xiaofei has not inherited this from you." ”

Li Xiangqun and Su Yirou looked at their daughter at the same time, Li Rongfei only had half a juice drink in front of her, she didn't drink because she had just been discharged from the hospital, because she didn't usually drink, unless it was a very, very rare moment, Liu Chen hadn't encountered it a few times.

Li Xiangqun said with a smile: "Haha, yes, she is like her uncle at this point, she almost doesn't drink at all, and she will persuade us to drink less when she was a child." ”

Li Xiangqun suddenly talked about Li Rongfei's childhood, Li Rongfei knew that drinking alcohol was not good for people's health when she was a child, so she often persuaded her parents to drink less, but as she grew older and the family broke down, Li Xiangqun had not heard her daughter dissuade herself from drinking for a long time.

This atmosphere is not suitable for this lunch, Liu Chen hurriedly stood up and said: " It's good for girls not to drink, aunt that's no way, whether it was before or now, there are a lot of entertainment that can't be pushed off, even if you don't know how to drink, you have to become a god of wine, uncle too, many things need to be achieved through the wine bureau, so I especially understand what my uncle said just now, although I drank so much wine, but there are few good wines that completely put aside the wine table to socialize, I often encounter such a situation, so I especially cherish the moment of drinking with my family, when I go back to my dad, I will drink and chat with my dad, this drink can be drunk for several hours, hehe。 ”

Liu Chen's words not only took care of Li Rongfei, but also shortened the emotional distance between himself and Li Rongfei's family, and even mentioned the harmonious relationship between himself and his father, which suddenly made the whole atmosphere full of warmth.

Li Xiangqun turned around, leaned over and asked Liu Chen, "Speaking of Xiao Liu's father, I don't know if he is in good health now?"

Liu Chen smiled and nodded: "The body is very good, hehe, thank you uncle for your concern." ”

"That's good, hehe, once this person is old, the body is the most important thing, and good health is a blessing. ”

"Hehe, yes, my dad can't be idle, he always likes to do something, I always tell him, now that my son has a chance, you don't have to worry about food and clothing, enjoy happiness at home, take good care of your body, is the happiest thing. ”

Li Xiangqun likes this kind of ordinary happiness between family members, but he can't help himself in the officialdom, and he feels very envious and affirmative of Liu Chen's harmonious family environment: "Yes, yes, that's right, eh, when will our two families arrange to have a meal together, I can't wait to meet my future in-laws now." ”

Originally, when I was in the hospital, I said that I would wait for Li Rongfei's body to fully recover and then arrange for the two families to meet, but Li Rongfei's physical condition was much better than expected, and Li Xiangqun also liked Liu Chen's quasi-son-in-law very much, and now even Su Yirou basically recognized Liu Chen, so some things that come naturally can be arranged if they can be arranged, and Li Rongfei's current age is not young, almost thirty years old, which is considered a late marriage age for girls.

Liu Chen thought for a while, and thought that his father had also offered to meet Li Rongfei's family, since the two elders now have the desire to meet, so they agreed to their wishes, anyway, the level of Li Rongfei's mother, who he was most worried about, had already passed, and it was a happy event to meet his parents, so he agreed: "Okay, I will convey the meaning of my uncle and aunt to my parents, and see when the two families can match the time, I will arrange it as soon as possible." ”

Li Rongfei was surprised by Liu Chen's readily agreed, she thought that Liu Chen was not so eager to make the relationship between the two go further, and she herself was a little unsure, after all, she hadn't understood the matter of the blue crystal pendant yet, and Liu Chen hadn't taken the initiative to give an explanation, maybe Liu Chen couldn't remember it.

The meeting of the parents of the two sides has always been a major event in Li Xiangqun's mind, but because he was not sure about Su Yirou's attitude towards Liu Chen before, he did not take the initiative to ask for it, and wanted to make a decision when the relationship between the two children reached a certain level, and later heard that the two had been privately engaged, so he felt that the time might be ripe.

"Okay, okay, then please ask Xiao Liu to spend more time on this matter, I and your aunt are free at any time. Li Xiangqun nodded again and again, and made a promise, in fact, as the director of the Municipal Education Bureau, he is usually busy with official business, especially after the incident in Jiangxia Middle School, he is even busier, a few days after the explosion, he has been the unit, the school and the city bureau, running back and forth between three o'clock, many things can actually be entrusted to the secretary to do, but when it comes to the students, he must personally ask.

This time, for his daughter's lifelong event, he is very willing to arrange time from his busy schedule, no matter when, he will squeeze out time to meet Liu Chen's family, which is respect for Liu Chen and his family, and also respect for his daughter.

Su Yirou also agreed: "Yes, we are free at any time, I hope you can arrange it, and we can respect your parents' intentions when and place." ”

"Okay, I know, don't worry, I will arrange it as soon as possible. ”
