The Ni family's house became even more lively at this time. A group of people were discussing Chu Heng, uh... or maybe praising him.
Among them, the elder sister-in-law is the most important.
"I'm telling you."
"My brother-in-law is so awesome!"
"Let's talk about grandma's illness. When we were in Bingcheng, the doctors said there was no cure. It was Yinghong who found Hengzi's friends and invited foreign doctors and special medicines to hang the old lady up. Life."
"And after he came to Sijiu City, he also asked someone to invite an imperial doctor to cure grandma."
…
The sister-in-law was chirping and talking happily, almost praising Chu Heng in the sky and on the earth, as if she was afraid that she would not be looked down upon.
It's not that she's snobbish, likes to flatter or anything.
She was really grateful to Chu Heng, so she wanted to give him some face in front of others.
After all, the changes that the Ni family has experienced today are all due to Chu Heng.
"Crunch!"
At this time, the door was suddenly opened, and Chu Heng walked in with long legs, and poked at the door. Before he could see the person in the room clearly, he hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Something has been delayed, so everyone must be waiting impatiently."
The second uncle hurriedly stood up. He was obviously an elder, but in front of this junior, he was a little reserved. He bowed his waist slightly, clasped his hands tightly, and said with a stiff and enthusiastic smile on his face: "No, no, we The food has just been cooked, come sit here with me and warm yourself over the fire, are you freezing?"
Only then did Chu Heng notice them. He quickly put down his things, took out his cigarette and walked forward: "Hey, my second uncle and third uncle are here too. I'm really sorry for keeping you waiting for so long. I'll be sure to wait for you later." I’ll punish myself with three drinks!”
"Haha, three cups is not enough. I heard that you can't pour a thousand cups." The third uncle didn't have so many ideas, and he didn't receive any favor from Chu Heng, so it was much more natural. He smiled and took the big cup from him. At the front door, Wu Chuwei sniffed it before putting it in his mouth: "This is such a good cigarette! Even our factory manager can't smoke it!"
"Hey, what a good cigarette this is. If you like it, I'll get you one later. I have one in my car." Chu Heng smiled and lit the cigarette for him.
"Car? What car?"
The third aunt on the side came over curiously.
"You don't know? Our Hengzi also has a car. He seems to have won it from playing rough, right? It's so comfortable to sit on!" The sister-in-law walked forward with a smile, and enthusiastically pulled Chu Heng and the two of them to the table. Let's go: "Come on, come on, sit down quickly, I'm waiting for you to start eating. I specially made your favorite black fungus for Hengzi. You can eat more later."
"Really? Don't fight me for a moment. I love my sister-in-law's black fungus the most." Chu Heng came to the table with a smile. After his grandfather and other elders were seated, he sat down with his wife. .
This is etiquette!
Soon, everyone in the room was seated, and then Ni's father took out a bottle of Maotai like a treasure, and showed off to his two brothers with a glowing face: "Let's drink this, this is the special Maotai that Hengzi and Yinghong got when they were dating. Well, today you all borrowed the old man's money."
"Brother, do you still have such good wine?" The second uncle is a wine lover. Seeing this, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he hurriedly handed the cup over: "Come on, come on, people say that Maotai is delicious. Let me try this wine today."
"I'll do it. I'll do it." Ni Chen stood up and took the wine from his father. He walked around the table and poured a small cup for each drinker. Ni's father secretly Hidden the remaining half bottle of wine.
This stuff is damn expensive, it’s worth trying it...
Next, everyone started to change cups.
Everyone chatted about daily life and parted ways, and the atmosphere was so lively.
During this period, the third aunt, who had been a little dissatisfied with Chu Heng before, kept getting close to him, picking up food and saying nice things. For a while, the second aunt looked aside and curled her lips.
Chu Heng and the others didn't drink too much today, because they had to send their grandpa and others to the train in the evening. After drinking two taels of white each and a few bottles of beer, they cleared the table and put tea on the table.
Everyone drank a few cups of tea and chatted for a while. Grandpa felt that the fuss was too much, so he stood up with a smile and waved to Chu Heng: "Come on, Hengzi, let's play a few more games before we leave."
"okay!"
Chu Heng quickly got up and followed the old man to Ni's father's house.
Seeing this, others started to form their own games. A few women got together and played leaf tiles, while the men set up a mahjong table. As for the children, they ran outside and went crazy as early as after dinner.
…
"Take the lead!"
"I'll jump the horse!"
"Get out of the car!"
"Gongpawn!"
"Will!"
"Eh? No, grandpa, when did your cannon come here? Are you cheating?"
"Why do I have to play tricks with you?"
"oops!"
In the room, Chu Heng, who had lost another game, put the chess pieces again with an annoyed look on his face, preparing to regain his strength and fight again.
Grandpa put the chess pieces back into place with a smile, and said meaningfully: "You, you have made some progress, but not much. I have said it many times, in chess, in the end, you have to look at the overall situation. Don't worry." Why can’t you remember all the temporary gains and losses?”
"Hey, what you're saying is that I do have this problem. I always like to stare at what's in front of my eyes." Chu Heng bared his teeth and smiled, not sure if he heard it or not.
"Brother-in-law! Brother-in-law!"
At this time, siblings Ni Zhen and Ni Yinghua ran in from outside, their little faces flushed with cold.
Chu Heng gently moved a cannon horizontally to the middle, turned his head and looked at the siblings: "What are you doing?"
"Can you give us five cents? We want to buy some firecrackers!" Ni Zhen looked at him expectantly.
Ni Yinghua's face was filled with impatience.
She was playing well outside, but Ni Zhen had to drag her into the house.
This guy was also a thief. Knowing that Chu Heng favored his sister-in-law, he was afraid that he wouldn't get the money, so he pulled his second sister over to help.
But this trick is really useful.
Sure enough, Chu Heng reached into his pocket and took out a wad of money. After searching for a while, he couldn't find any five-cent coins, not even ten cents. Finally, he simply took out a five-cent coin and handed it to Shui Lingling's sister-in-law: "There are no more zeros. Just take fifty cents and save some money."
"Thank you, brother-in-law!"
Ni Yinghua is also a little money-crazy. She looked unhappy just now. When she saw the money, she immediately beamed. After thanking him profusely, she ran out with her brother.
My brother-in-law is so nice!
The little girl was thinking...
"You, just get used to them." Grandpa shook his head speechlessly. When he was in his hometown, he didn't even have fifty cents for cigarettes a month. It's better for this wasteful guy to give fifty cents to two children in one go. It's really not ordinary. !
"It's bad, and it doesn't have much money." Chu Henghun picked up a chess piece carelessly and thought about it for a long time before putting it down.
In this way, after the two of them played a few more games, the time soon reached nine o'clock.
Grandpa is getting older and cannot stay up late, and his face is visibly tired.
When Chu Heng saw this, he put away the chessboard, let the old man rest for a while, and then went to the main room to watch his wife play cards.
The women didn't gamble, they just drank cold water.
Xiao Ni is unlucky today. He has lost several games in a row and is drinking acidic water.
However, her second uncle's sister Ni Yingyingxia was very lucky and didn't lose a single match. At this time, she was proudly urging little Ni and her third aunt who were holding the enamel jar and burping.
"Can you two please hurry up? Do you still expect to stay until tomorrow to cook?"
Chu Heng took a look and saw that this was not bad. He went up and threatened with a ferocious smile: "Sister, you don't want to lose this hard-won job, do you?"
The little chubby girl looked frightened and helpless, trembling while guarding her chest.
