Chapter 359: First Meeting
Knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, I prefer to go to the tiger mountains——
Liu Yanbo knew that it was not appropriate to use this sentence to describe him as a son-in-law to pay New Year's greetings to his father-in-law, but after the unpleasantness of the first visit, he really couldn't look forward to this so-called family banquet as a normal family banquet in his heart.
Yes.
Liu Yanbo didn't look forward to going to Yin's house for a family banquet at all, he was even begging in his heart that this time as long as it was not more embarrassing than the first time, and not to go to the point where it would be difficult for him and his father-in-law to step down.
God seemed to have heard the almost humble begging in Liu Yanbo's heart, at half past four in the afternoon, when he arrived at the Yin family, he was greeted not like when he first came to the Yin family, there were so many horizontal eyebrows and gloating, at least this time, most of the Yin family members already had a kind smile on their faces when they saw him, as for these smiles, there will be some sincerity and some falsehood-
Why bother?
It was Cao Yulan who came to greet her, the current hostess of the Yin family, compared with the first time they met, this woman seemed to have a little more graceful and luxurious temperament.
"Hanruo, Xiao Liu, you are back, Happy New Year. Cao Yulan took her son Yin Xin to greet her, she greeted warmly, and she also had a kind smile on her face.
As the saying goes-
Reach out and don't hit the smiley person.
Liu Yanbo had no choice but to smile politely, and replied with New Year's greetings to this woman who looked a few years older than him and intervened in the marriage of his father-in-law and mother-in-law: "Aunt Cao, Happy New Year." ”
"Aunt Cao, Aunt Cao, why are you so kind?" As soon as Liu Yanbo finished speaking, Yin Hanruo said with a cold face: "What, she also poured you ecstasy soup?"
This is ugly enough, but it seems to be like a heavy punch on the cotton, making the person concerned feel painless.
Liu Yanbo understands the anger and resentment that Yin Hanruo is holding back now, she can "go back on her word" and follow him together, which has already given him enough face as a husband, and he knows that he can't ask for more.
And Cao Yulan?
This woman is just like she didn't hear what Yin Hanruo just said, the smile on her face is still so down-to-earth and generous, and she is as affectionate as the best stepmother in the world.
"Xiao Xin, how did your mother teach you just now?" Cao Yulan bowed her head and said to Yin Xin: "Don't call someone yet." ”
Yin Xin was hiding behind Cao Yulan with half of his body, he seemed to be very afraid of Yin Hanruo, he looked like he wanted to see but didn't dare to look at it, and greeted timidly: "Sister, brother-in-law, Happy New Year." ”
Hearing this, Liu Yanbo glanced at Yin Hanruo on the side with some unease, but the latter did not have a tendency to speak ill of Yin Xin this time, but just snorted coldly-
But thinking about it, even if Yin Hanruo dislikes Yin Tianhua and Cao Yulan again, at her age, she will not be able to sprinkle her anger on a child again and again.
Liu Yanbo couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and his face was replaced with a fairly friendly smile, and took out a red envelope from his pocket, bent down and handed it to Yin Xin, "Happy New Year." ”
Yin Xin did not take the red envelope at the first time, but looked up at Cao Yulan, and only after getting his mother's nod of agreement did he carefully take the red envelope in Liu Yanbo's hand: "Thank you, brother-in-law." ”
Liu Yanbo withdrew his hand and smiled, straightened up and said, "Aunt Cao, can we go in?"
He was asking, in the tone of a guest, but—
Liu Yanbo asked this not to show how polite he was, but to show his attitude-
Except for the nominally inextricable relationship between Weng and his son-in-law, he didn't want to have more to do with the current Yin family.
Cao Yulan seemed to understand, because she paused slightly, and her smile froze for a while, before she resumed her original words: "Of course, this place will always be your home, whether you enter or exit, you don't need to ask anyone's permission." ”
Liu Yanbo smiled politely, not caring whether Cao Yulan's words were true or false, as for Yin Hanruo, she had not had a good face from beginning to end, and had already walked towards the inner courtyard of the Yin family first......
The Yin family's courtyard house is larger and more magnificent than the Du family's, and it should have just had a happy event recently, and the word "Xi" posted on the doors of those houses is still very new, I think it should be that Yin Tianhua and Cao Yulan have officially married and have had a wedding here.
Seeing this, Liu Yanbo felt a little unkindly relaxed in his heart, because the more ruthless Yin Tianhua did, the less worries he would have as a son-in-law.
When things go for self-interest, people's mood will always involuntarily change a lot better-
It is human nature and has nothing to do with good or evil.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, with a good mood, Liu Yanbo sat down at the table of the Yin family's family banquet.
At the dinner table, Yin Tianhua really introduced Liu Yanbo to other relatives of the Yin family one by one as he said on the phone, and his attitude was not very happy and friendly, but at least he was impatient, and it seemed that he had agreed with the son-in-law of the Yin family who was devalued by him when they met last time.
It was a family feast, and although the atmosphere was a little weird, it was okay, but this different kind of peace didn't come to the end, because—
Zhang Quanzhong is here.
Is it an unpredictable uninvited guest, or is it premeditated and deliberate?
Liu Yanbo didn't know, he only felt the different enthusiasm of the Yin family, or rather-
Affection.
The Yin family led by Yin Tianhua has already gotten up to welcome Zhang Quanzhong's arrival, and only Liu Yanbo is left in the restaurant sitting at the table like Mount Tai and nibbling on a piece of lamb chops, Yin Hanruo's face sitting next to him has become more and more ugly, she threw her chopsticks and wanted to leave, but he pulled her back and sat back.
Liu Yanbo put down the lamb chops and handed his own chopsticks to Yin Hanruo and said, "Sister, you should eat a little, otherwise I will go home in a while, I will be full, you are so hungry that I will be very faceless." ”
"You Liu Yanbo still want to save face?" Yin Hanruo said angrily: "You Liu Yanbo is the most shameless person I have ever seen in my life!"
Liu Yanbo listened to the Yin family's affection for Zhang Quanzhong behind him, and couldn't help but smile faintly: "Only when people are shameless can they be invincible in the world." ”
When Yin Hanruo heard this, he was angry and stomped on his instep fiercely-
Her husband is a real thief sometimes.
Surrounded by the Yin family, Zhang Quanzhong was arranged to sit on the other side of Yin Hanruo, as if in their eyes, this was naturally a matter of course, and it was not embarrassing at all, but-
In Liu Yanbo's cognition, this should be the normal appearance of the Yin family.
With Zhang Quanzhong's seat, the strange atmosphere that had permeated the dining table before was gone, and the harmony was completely like a normal family banquet, at least for the Yin family, it was definitely like this.
Especially Yin Tianhua, he is now like two people, except for Zhang Quanzhong, there is no one else in his eyes at this moment, and his earnest eyes are like seeing his own son, how greasy and crooked he is, it's a pity-
Zhang Quanzhong's first glass of wine did not respond to Yin Tianhua's affection, he stood up with the wine, and said condescendingly and with a smile: "Mr. Liu, let's have a drink when we meet for the first time!"
