Chapter 9: Apricot Yellow (2) (7)

Seeing Zhu'er's tenacity and weight-bearing character in the face of adversity without being discouraged and depressed, coupled with Zhu'er's diligent and hard work in running the store, I know that Zhu'er is a good hand to live a stable life. He really fell in love with this son-in-law. Because of his love for Zhu'er, he did not regret marrying his daughter Xiufang to him. He can also see that Xiufang follows Zhu'er and will not be bullied and aggrieved. Although the current days will be a little tougher, they will get better in the blink of an eye.

The arrival of Xiufang's father made Zhu'er feel an inexplicable sense of pleasure.

From the first time I met Xiufang's father, this sense of pleasure came spontaneously. He couldn't figure out why he was like this. There is always an urge to be cordial or even close, and I can't help but rush to my own heart. He has done many analyses of this wonderful psychic induction. Maybe it's an illusion that the shadow of the imaginary father is attached to Xiufang's father, maybe it's because of the lack of father's love since childhood and an almost fanatical extravagant hope for Xiufang's father, maybe it's because Xiufang's father has too many temperaments similar to his own and invisibly shortens the distance between the two, or maybe it's how the two of them are related in their previous lives and achieve the purpose of returning through Xiufang in this life. In short, this pleasure is always stored in Zhu'er's heart. Once he hears his voice and sees his figure, he can stimulate it from the depths of his heart in time. This peculiar feeling not only made Zhu'er excited, but also had a trace of vigilance and fear.

When the in-laws came, Mao Xiang and Full Moon were supposed to kill chickens, cook vegetables, warm wine, and entertain them hotly at home. The full moon did kill a chicken, and asked the neighbor's baby to go to the factory to call Mao Xiang back. Mao Xiang replied that he was busy in the factory, and he had to accompany Wang Gonggong in the production of things, so he couldn't get out. The full moon was sad in his heart, and he couldn't speak with a full stomach. Fortunately, Xiufang's father is a sincere person and doesn't think too much. He and Man Yue pulled some trivial things about the preparations for the marriage of Zhu Er and Xiufang, and promised on the spot some things that the Full Moon family was not ready and could be completed by his own family, such as bedding, cabinets, daily utensils, etc. After talking, he tactfully rejected the full moon's intention to keep eating.

Xiufang's father said, I'm not an outsider, so I don't need to accompany me. Just eat in Zhu'er's shop, and help him look at the storefront. At night, I huddled with him, so I could be a companion.

A woman's house in the full moon has never been in the habit of accompanying guests at the table, and I don't know how to accompany them. Even if Xiufang's father came, Zhu'er was reluctant to go home and had to take care of the storefront. The full moon had to do whatever he wanted. She stewed the chicken, stir-fried a few more dishes, and sent them into the store in a pile, saying a lot of sorry things.

Xiufang's father said that he couldn't trouble his in-laws like this in the future. There is also a pot stove here, and everything is also available. I'm just cooking and eating here like Zhu'er, it's the same.

The full moon is still apologetic. She was in the open space in front of the counter, and she temporarily set up a table with a cardboard box. Let Zhu'er warm up the wine, accompany Xiufang's father to drink a few more glasses, and go to the cold. He was talking to Xiufang's father on the side, taking care of the business in the store.

Zhu'er honestly ate and drank food and wine with Xiufang's father, and rarely interjected to help. Neither of them drank much. After only a few small drinks, it was time to eat.

At this time, Mao Xiang came in with a smell of alcohol. He hurriedly explained to Xiufang's father the reason why he couldn't go back, sat down again, and drank a few more drinks with Xiufang's father. Xiufang's father is honest, how can he stand up to Maoxiang's eloquent eloquence. He hardened his head again and continued to drink. Zhu'er was also treated by Mao Xiang, picked up the wine glass again, and continued to drink with him. It wasn't until Xiufang's father's tongue was drunk straight and he didn't obey the call, and Zhu'er was also drunk and hazy, that Mao Xiang was counted as giving up.

The full moon cleaned up the ground and went home with Mao Xiang. [End of Chapter]
