Alia was still angry when she was carried back to Zhagu’s house.
The banquet was already set up. There were only three or four tables, and they were all Zhagu’s relatives. Alia and Andrew naturally sat at the main table.
Zhii saw Alia’s angry face and asked, “What’s wrong, Mia? Why are you angry?”
Andrew forced a smile. “It’s nothing. She was just playing with a kitten outside and the kitten ran away…”
Zhagu hurriedly said, “l see. If Mia likes cats, I’ll go to the village to get one…”
Andrew said, “No, no.’
Alia was still angry when she saw Zhii pick up a large drumstick for her. She bit into it angrily, then saw Sang co in, covering his mouth and grinning.
Alia stared at him as she nibbled on the drumstick. Sang happened to et Alia’s gaze and trembled in fear. The smile on his face disappeared. He sat at the table outside with an embarrassed expression, feeling indignant. What was wrong with him?! She had even broken one of his front teeth! He wasn’t even angry. Why was she angry?!
A relative saw that Sang had been covering his mouth and asked, “Sang, what are you doing?”
Sang simply put down his hand and said, “I fell outside just now and knocked out my front tooth.”
The person who asked the question imdiately smiled and clapped. “Serves you right! Who asked you to always spout nonsense? You’ve suffered retribution now! ”
Sang was afraid to say anything, mainly because Alia was too fierce, She dared to raise a brick to hit him on the head. Besides, Dr Walton was so rich, he was afraid of retaliation.
After eating for about half an hour, Andrew saw that Alia was almost done. He excused himself and left with Alia.
Alia suddenly thought of sothing. She quickly touched her satchel and took out a red packet. Her grandmother had prepared this for her before she left. On the way, Eighth Uncle had added a little into it. It was very thick.
“Grandpa Hell, I wish you good health and discharge from the hospital. In the future…” Alia suddenly paused and looked at Zhagu’s face. She was stunned for a mont. She looked at Elr blankly. Elr only looked up and said calmly, “Give it to him.”
Alia handed the red packet to Zhagu, but she could not help but remind him, ‘Grandpa Hell, take care of your health in the future. Don’t drink alcohol.
Not even a sip!’
Zhagu hurriedly stood up and kept declining. “Aiya, no need, no need. I just invited you over for a al…”
Andrew said gently, “Keep it. Take care of your body.”
Alia and Andrew got into the car and left after being urged by Hell’s family to stay.
Sang heaved a sigh of relief. Seeing Alia leave, he relaxed. He turned to look at the red packet in Zhagu’s hand. It was so thick. He clicked his tongue and sighed. “Such a thick red packet must have a few thousand yuan, right? Rich people are so stingy. They drive luxury cars worth more than a million yuan and give red packets worth only a few thousand yuan. If you ask , he should give a bundle worth tens of thousands of yuan!”
Zhagu glared and reprimanded, “Dr. Walton is here because he thinks highly of us. He even gave us a few thousand yuan in red packets. How much did you give him?! ”
Sang imdiately said, “Aiya, I was just joking. Fifth Uncle, why are you angry? Co, co, let toast you.”
Zhagu ignored him, but Sangs mouth was very sharp. He kept persuading him that if he didn’t drink, he wouldn’t forgive him. Even if it was a casual toast, it was fine.
Zhagu thought about it. It was not good to have a conflict between relatives. No matter what, they still had to interact in the future. He took half a sip.
When Zhii ca out and saw this, she was furious! She scolded Sang!
Sang put his arm around Zhagu’s shoulder and said, “Look, isn’t my Fifth Uncle fine? How can he be well if he doesn’t eat anything? Moreover, I specially poured Fifth Uncle so dicinal wine brewed by our family. It’s good for his health! Look at my Fifth Uncle, his face is much redder!”
Sang did not take it to heart. He even felt that Zhii was making a mountain out of a molehill and looking down on him!
Zhii was about to flare up when she was stopped by her cousin. “Forget it, forget it. Isn’t Fifth Uncle fine? Your cousin-in-law just wants to ask for forgiveness. There’s no need to spend so much effort…”
Zhii angrily turned around and went into the kitchen.
After three rounds of drinking, everyone let go after Andrew left. They drank a lot and most of them were drunk. Sang looked at the little boy who was nibbling on a drumstick and said with a smile, “Co, Laing, aren’t you thirsty just from eating the drumstick? Uncle will give you a drink..”
