Seeing the two people holding each other's arms, Jiang Xiangyang chuckled, "My cousin is more than a year younger than you? Who do you call brother?"
"Xiang Yang, what are you talking about? Even if I am five years younger than my brother-in-law, he still has to call me brother after you." Jiang Mingyong showed his big white teeth proudly.
Jin Xiangyu watched the brother and sister playing and smiled fondly, without refuting Jiang Mingyong's words.
Several of Jiang Xiangyang's cousins, some of whom drive trucks and some who own restaurants, are all from the city. They usually speak and do things without much restraint, and now they are even more casual at the wine table.
Although Jin Xiangyu has a good drinking capacity, he probably can't handle the drinking capacity of several people. Jiang Xiangyang watched several people toasting each other back and forth, feeling vaguely worried about Jin Xiangyu's situation tonight. But Jin Xiangyu was already on the table, and it was not his turn to decide whether to drink or not.
Jiang Xiangyang watched as Jin Xiangyu refused to drink the wine handed over by his cousin. He drank one glass after another. He turned sideways to Jin Xiangyu and asked in a low voice: "Are you okay? ?”
"It's okay. This amount of alcohol won't trouble me." Jin Xiangyu took a deep breath and drank the wine in front of him. Today is the first time I have come to Jiang Xiangyang's house. Naturally, I want to accompany these relatives of Jiang Xiangyang's family. I also expect them to say a few good words for me in front of Jiang Xiangyang. I can't ruin the fun now.
"Take it easy..." Jiang Xiangyang said angrily, pinching Jin Xiangyu's lower back.
"What? Xiangyang, do you feel sorry for your boyfriend?" Jiang Minghui looked at the two people flirting and asked jokingly.
"Sister, what are you talking about..." Jiang Xiangyang looked at Jiang Minghui with a smile on his face and shook his head helplessly.
"It doesn't matter if you feel distressed. Today we are testing him for you. These men can only tell the truth after drinking. You must not feel distressed." Jiang Minghui blinked.
"Xiangyang, your sister Minghui said this right. When I first came to the house, Mingyong and the others treated me the same way." Jiang Minghui's husband Hu Jianhua agreed.
"Don't worry, everyone, whether I drink or not, what I tell Xiangyang is the truth." Jin Xiangyang said solemnly, looking at Jiang Xiangyang seriously with slightly drunken eyes.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk... let's drink this glass first and then talk." Jiang Mingyong refilled the wine glass in front of Jin Xiangyu.
"Come on!" Jin Xiangyu stood up, picked up the wine glass and drank it generously.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Xiangyang knew that there was no point in saying anything, so he could only let them go. Jin Xiangyu was determined to please Jiang Xiangyang's family and did not put on airs in front of them. Jiang Mingyong and others also had a forthright temperament, and they had a good time talking with each other during the meal.
Finally, the dinner was almost nine o'clock, and as expected, Jin Xiangyu was still drunk. Jiang Xiangyang looked at the drunk Jin Xiangyu, sighed, and had to help him go home. Fortunately, although Jin Xiangyu drank too much, he could still walk with difficulty. Jiang Xiangyang's hometown house was not far from his second uncle's house. Jiang Xiangyang supported Jin Xiangyu and slowly went home.
After helping Jin Xiangyu to Jiang Xiangyang's house, Jiang Xiangyang's father also woke up, helped Jiang Xiangyang help Jin Xiangyu to Jiang Xiangyang's house, and brought hot water for Jin Xiangyu to wash his face.
"Dad, you go to bed first. I'll go to bed after I've done it." Jiang Xiangyang glanced at his father and said softly. As his father is old, he is too embarrassed to bother him to take care of Jin Xiangyu, so he should do it himself.
"I'm sorry, uncle, I drank a little too much the first time I came here." Jin Xiangyu himself was a little embarrassed to bother Jiang Xiangyang's father so late, and he hesitated to stand up and apologize.
"Okay, I also know how drunk Jiang Xiangyang's brothers are. Don't stand up and go to bed early. Xiangyang, you should go to bed early when you're done." Jiang's father instructed.
After his father left, Jiang Xiangyang brought another basin of water, squatted down, and prepared to take off Jin Xiangyu's shoes and let him soak his feet.
Jin Xiangyu watched Jiang Xiangyang bend down, pulled him into his arms, buried his head on Jiang Xiangyang's shoulder, and said slightly drunkenly: "Xiang Xiangyang, I love you."
Jiang Xiangyang felt the sound of Jin Xiangyu breathing in his ears, and felt a numbness in his heart. Jiang Xiangyang was not an emotionless person, and Jiang Xiangyang also noticed how Jin Xiangyu behaved in front of his family today. It would be a lie to say that he was not touched. A dignified secretary-general of the Municipal Party Committee could be humbled and petty in front of these ordinary people. Jiang Xiangyang thought that Jin Xiangyu must love him.
"I love you too." Jiang Xiangyang responded softly.
After waiting for a long time for Jin Xiangyu's response, Jiang Xiangyang turned his head and saw that the man had already closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
Actually fell asleep? It seemed that Jin Xiangyu really drank too much.
Jiang Xiangyang smiled, gently took off the man's shoes, cleaned them briefly, then covered him with a quilt and let him have a good rest.
After Jiang Xiangyang simply washed up, he rested with his sister.
The next day, before Jiang Xiangyang got up, he heard the sound of Jin Xiangyu talking to his father outside the room. Jiang Xiangyang wondered, how could Jin Xiangyu get up so early if he wasn't drunk?
After Jiang Xiangyang got up, he looked at Jin Xiangyu who was standing in the yard full of energy and asked curiously: "Why did you get up so early?"
Jin Xiangyu listened to the cries of chickens and birds coming from all around, took a deep breath of fresh rural air, stretched, and said lazily: "With such a beautiful natural scenery, naturally I have to get up early to enjoy it."
"That's right, people like you from the provincial capital have never experienced this kind of natural scenery." Jiang Xiangyang stood in the yard and looked into the distance. No matter how far he went, his hometown would always be the harbor of Jiang Xiangyang's soul.
After Jiang Xiangyang and his party had breakfast, they were ready to return to Yunchuan County.
Before returning to his hometown, Jiang Xiangyang told Jin Xiangyu about his relatives in his hometown. Unexpectedly, Jin Xiangyu took them all to heart. Before leaving, Jin Xiangyu opened the trunk and took out the gifts he had prepared one by one.
Father Jiang was also stunned for a moment when he saw Jin Xiangyu preparing gifts. Although I have not been in contact with Xiao Jin for a long time, I know that he is a child who understands etiquette, but I did not expect that he also understands etiquette so much that he takes other relatives into consideration. This makes Jiang Xiangyang's father more honorable in front of his relatives. Young, I have a little more favorable impression of Jin Xiangyu.
Jiang's father took Jin Xiangyu and Jiang Xiangyang to sit at the homes of several relatives for a while, and then sent gifts to their homes. After delivering the goods, Jin Xiangyu asked Jiang Xiangyang, Wang Fang and others to wait at home while he and Jiang's father went out to do some errands before coming back.
Jiang Xiangyang looked at the mysterious two people and didn't know what they were going to do.
