Chapter 10: The Old Man's Wine
"Here we are." Huai Youcai braked suddenly, and after parking the car at the door of Fang Mumu's mother's house, he said impatiently to the stupid groom and Fang Mumu in the back seat without looking back.
The stupid groom and Fang Mumu, who were originally sitting in the car and were a little confused, were thrown out of their seats directly by Huai Youcai's sudden brake, and then bounced back to their seats in an instant.
"Just go in and deal with it, I don't want to wait too long here." Huai Youcai's hand knocked on the steering wheel, looked at the situation in the back row through the rearview mirror, and saw that the stupid groom and Fang Mumu were in a state adjustment, and hurriedly added.
Fang Mumu's hand happened to be on the doorknob, she raised her eyes and glanced at Huai Youcai, didn't answer anything, opened the door and got out of the car, carrying things.
The stupid groom wanted to agree, but when he saw that Fang Mumu didn't speak, he didn't speak, but followed behind Fang Mumu obediently.
Fang Mumu and the stupid groom's ignorance made Huai Youcai really angry, but he could only knock on the steering wheel in anger, but he couldn't do anything.
After Fang Mumu looked at the silly groom beside him, he put his things on the ground and knocked on the door.
After knocking on the door a few times, there was finally a response in the courtyard, but it was not Yu Cai who responded to Fang Mumu and the stupid groom, but Fang Jian.
"Here we are." Fang Jian responded, and then he could hear Fang Jian's footsteps slowly coming from a distance.
Fang Mumu chuckled in her heart, she was a little flustered, after all, she didn't expect that her mother would not be at home, and the person who greeted them would be her father.
"Here we go." After the door creaked open, Fang Jian looked at Fang Mumu and the stupid groom at the door, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was aimed at the stupid groom.
Fang Mumu nodded, and the silly groom also nodded.
Fang Jian put his hand on the shoulder of the silly groom and pulled the silly groom in, "Let's go, uncle, we have to have two drinks today." ”
"Dad, he can't drink." After Fang Mumu closed the door, he whispered behind Fang Jian and the stupid groom.
When the stupid groom heard Fang Mumu's words, he hurriedly nodded, "You can't drink it!" Can't drink it! Can't drink it! ”
Fang Jian looked at the stupid groom's obedient appearance to Fang Mumuyan, and felt a little unhappy, but he still smiled and said to the silly groom, "It's okay, just a little bit, it's okay." ”
The silly groom stopped when he heard Fang Jian's words, looked back at Fang Mumu, and waited for Fang Mumu's answer.
Fang Mumu wanted to shake his head, but Fang Jian also followed the stupid groom and turned his head to look at her, his brows furrowed slightly, and his eyes were full of warnings. Fang Mumu was helpless, so he could only close his mouth and nod slightly.
The silly groom also nodded after learning from Fang Mumu's appearance, Fang Jian laughed out loud, and pulled the silly groom into the main house.
Fang Mumu walked into the kitchen with her things, sat on the bench and rested for a while, thinking that she would cook something to eat for her parents and the silly groom at noon.
The sound of the door opening made Fang Mumu stop thinking, and his eyes looked out of the window, and his mother was carrying some things and slowly walked towards the kitchen.
"Mom~" Fang Mumu hurriedly went out to greet his mother.
"Mu Mu~" Yu Cai's eyes smiled like a crescent moon, she wanted to hug Mu Mu, but the things at hand did not allow it, so she had to walk quickly to the kitchen.
"Mom, I'll help you." Fang Mumu wanted to take some things from his mother's hands.
"No, I can still hold this thing." Yu Cai didn't give Fang Mumu a chance, quickened his pace and walked into the kitchen, put things on the ground, looked at the other pile of things on the ground, Yu Cai turned to look at Fang Mumu, "It's good for you to come back and take a look, what else to take, I don't lack these." ”
"It's just some of the thoughts of my parents-in-law, I'm just helping to move back."
"This thing is weirdly heavy, did you bring it yourself?" Yu Cai asked with a frown.
"Brought it up with your uncle." Fang Mumu explained with a smile, she didn't want her mother to think that she was unhappy, "Before your aunt's things were put away, my father pulled him into the house and said that he wanted to drink two glasses." ”
"It's really nonsense, how can my uncle drink like that." Although Yu Cai said this, she didn't go to the main house to stop her, but pulled Fang Mumu to sit on the bench and chatter, asking if Fang Mumu's in-laws were good to her after she got married.
Fang Mumu smiled and said that the people of her in-law's family treated her like her own daughter, and she tried her best to show that she was doing well in her in-law's house.
"It's okay if everything is fine, I'm afraid of you..."
"Mom~" Fang Mumu held Yu Cai's hand and comforted Yu Cai's tears, "I'm really doing well, you can rest assured." ”
"It's really that people are old, and they only know how to wipe their tears when they say a few words." Yu Cai wiped away his tears with a smile, "Okay, hurry up and cook, you can go back quickly after eating, say that you will go back to the door, if you stay at home until the evening, no matter how good the people in your mother-in-law's family are, they will also talk nonsense." ”
"No, it won't..."
"Okay, my mother is here to do this." Yu Cai stood up and pressed Fang Mumu, who was about to stand up with her, "You sit, I'll cook." ”
"I can help." Fang Mumu still wanted to start the station.
"Mom knows that you are filial and capable, but when you come back today, Mom will do it." Yu Cai pressed Fang Mumu on the stool again, "Obedient." ”
Fang Mumu had to sit on the stool and watch his mother cook. Every time she felt that her mother needed a hand, she just got up from the stool when her mother turned around and warned her to sit back on the stool.
After the meal was ready, Yu Cai put the food of the two of them on the table, picked up the meal prepared for the master and the two of them, and sent it away.
Walking to the door, Yu Cai looked back at Fang Mumu, "The person driving at the door, do you also know each other?" ”
"It's your uncle's cousin."
"Oh~" Yu Cai turned around and added a bowl of rice and a pair of chopsticks to the plate, and then said to Fang Mumu while holding it up, "Then you go and call in to eat together, I just came back and forgot to ask." ”
"Okay." Fang Mumu stood up, thinking about how to talk to Huai Youcai when she went out, after all, as soon as she saw that person, she would feel uncomfortable.
Before Fang Mumu could think about going out, Yu Cai had already opened his mouth to stop her, "Forget it, you still sit on the bench and wait for me, I'll call after delivering the meal, after all, I'm the master." ”
"Okay." Fang Mumu had a hint of luck in her heart, but she hid it well.
Fang Mumu, who was in the kitchen, listened to his mother's footsteps and walked into the main house, walked out of the main house, walked out of the gate, and walked into the yard with Huai Youcai.
After a while, Yu Cai returned to the kitchen and beckoned Fang Mumu to eat. After eating, Yu Cai continued to go to the main house to collect dishes and chopsticks, and when she returned to the kitchen, she saw Fang Mumu starting to wash the dishes, she instantly made a straight face, "Why don't you listen to what this kid says?" ”
"I..."
"Alright, get on the stool." Yu Cai pulled Fang Mumu back to sit on the stool, turned around to the stove and began to wash, "You don't have to worry about me, I have been working for so many years, I can do it." ”
"I know, I just want to help." Fang Mumu looked at his mother's back and said distressedly.
"What's the hand? I seem to be too old to do anything. Yu Cai smiled as she spoke, for her, as long as Fang Mumu could sit beside her, it was already the best cheer for her. It's just that now Fang Mumu has become someone else's daughter-in-law, and her hope can only be at this time.
After Yu Cai finished cleaning up, it was already noon, Yu Cai wanted to talk to Fang Mumu for a while, but looking at the sky, she couldn't help it.
"I'll go to the main house to call my uncle, you guys hurry up and pack up and go back." Yu Cai said and walked out the door.
Fang Mumu hurriedly got up and grabbed Yu Cai, "Mom, it's okay, you can sit again." ”
"Good girl, it's not that your mother is driving you, it's just that you're already someone else's daughter-in-law, and your mother just wants to stay, but she can't. Hurry back, Mom's side is fine. After Yu Cai finished speaking, he went straight to the main house.
A moment later, Fang Mumu, who was standing at the door of the kitchen, saw Fang Jian helping the stupid groom out of the room.
"How much did you drink?" Fang Mumu stepped forward to support the silly groom.
The stupid groom raised his hand, wanting to tell Fang Mumu that he had a few drinks, but no matter how he looked at it, he felt that his fingers were not right.
"I took two sips." When Fang Jian said this, he was obviously a little weak-hearted, and after he handed over the stupid groom to Fang Mumu, he automatically retreated behind the two of them, and walked away side by side with Huai Youcai and Yu Cai.
Fang Mumu didn't say anything, but tried his best to help the stupid groom, lest he fall, and when she was about to lose it, Yu Cai stepped forward and took a hand, which helped the stupid groom to the car intact.
Fang Mumu also followed into the car, she wanted to say a few more words to her mother, looking at her father beside her mother, her words were suppressed.
"Then uncle and aunt, I'll take them back." Huai Cai politely said goodbye to Fang Jian and Yu Cai, and he didn't look like Fang Mumu knew him at all.
"Next time, let's drink more." When Fang Jian said this, he looked as if his uncle was talented.
Fang Mumu waved at his mother, and didn't pay much attention to Fang Jian and Huai Youcai's conversation.
After the car started, Fang Mumu looked through the rearview mirror and saw that the figure of her parents was getting smaller and smaller, she felt a little sad in her heart, and when she turned her head, she saw the small western-style building of Yuan Chengle's house in front of her, she looked away in a panic, and the sadness in her heart was even worse.
After a bump, Fang Mumu returned to her mother-in-law's house, and before she got out of the car, her mother-in-law Xia Yun had already rushed to the gate and came to pick up her son.
The stupid groom who fell asleep after being drunk woke up under Fang Mumu's shaking, and before he could react, he was pulled out of the car by Xia Yun, who got into the car.
"Ouch, my precious son, have you gone over there for dinner?" Xia Yun said, his nose came to the stupid groom and sniffed, and then yelled at Fang Mumu who got off the car from the other side, "How can you let him drink?" ”
"I..."
"I think you're a good person, you want my son to have a good time, so you can find another home, right?" Xia Yun shouted at Fang Mumu while helping the stupid groom, not caring at all that he was still standing at the door of the house.
"It's not a shame to be noisy!" Huai Feiming walked out of the courtyard quickly and glared at Xia Yun, "The old man's wine, can he stop it?" ”
Xia Yun didn't say anything anymore, and blamed her dissatisfaction on Fang Mumu, after glaring at Fang Mumu fiercely, she helped the stupid groom into the courtyard in distress.
"Good work." Huai Feiming said to Huai Youcai, looking at Huai Youcai's slightly flushed face, he frowned, and advised, "Don't drive next time you drink." ”
"Uncle, I just drank a few sips, but I didn't drink too much." Huai Youcai explained with a smile, wanting to cover up his weakness.
"That's dangerous, too." Huai Feiming's face was expressionless, "The car will stop at the door, you can walk back." ”
Huai Youcai still wanted to say something, but when he saw Huai Feiming's eyes, he had to be silent and obediently got out of the car, "That uncle, I'll go back first." ”
"Okay." After Huai Feiming watched Huai Youcai leave, he said to Fang Mumu on the side, "Go in." ”
