Chapter 705 Going Home for a Reunion Dinner
Chapter 705 Going Home for a Reunion Dinner
"Xue'er, try this. This mutton is as delicious as the one in your hometown." Wang Qi carefully picked out several pieces of mutton from the hot pot.
"Alright, alright." Seeing Wang Qi was obsessed with taking mutton out of the pot, Yang Xueer whispered, "Leave some for him, don't take it all."
"Oh, yes."
Wang Qi nodded with a red face. He also realized that his behavior was a bit rude, and quickly sat back in his seat.
Yang Xueer asked Wang Qi: "Do you like to eat the mutton from my hometown?"
"Yeah." Wang Qi nodded and said, "The kid meat in Pengcheng is delicious, tender and not smelly. I'm still thinking about that mutton skewer now."
"Then let's go." Yang Xueer turned on her phone and said, "My mom asked me to invite you to come home for dinner this year. After my mom told others about my relationship, my relatives at home also want to meet you."
"Ah?" Wang Qi was terrified when he heard this, and quickly waved his hands and said, "No, I... How can I have the nerve to go to your house like this? I'm so poor and I only have a few coins in my pocket. If I meet your aunts and uncles, they will laugh at me."
"No!" Yang Xueer patted his shoulder and comforted him, "My relatives are easy to talk to, and my uncle is a barbecue chef. The lamb he grills is delicious. When you go back to my hometown, I'll ask him to grill lamb for you."
"Stop talking nonsense! How dare I let your uncle make barbecue for me?" Wang Qi was already scared before meeting the parents, and his voice was lowered when he talked to Yang Xueer.
"Haha, idiot, there's nothing to be afraid of!"
Yang Xueer rolled her eyes at him and said, "I told you that our relatives are all very nice and not snobbish. Don't worry about it."
"Well...how about this, I'll borrow a car from Lao Liu and drive to meet your parents to help put on a good show." Wang Qi whispered in Yang Xueer's ear, "I'm really afraid that your relatives will dislike me for being so poor."
The reason why Wang Qi said this is because his family was very poor when he was a child, and his relatives looked down on his family. He remembered that when he was a child, every year during the New Year’s dinner, his uncle’s family would always make sarcastic remarks about his family.
His elder brother always thought that he was poor and would steal things from their house, so he was always on guard against him like a thief.
Over time, this seed was planted in his heart.
That's why he has always had so many concerns. Even when he met Yang Xueer's parents last time, he had the same mentality and was so timid.
Fortunately, Yang Xueer’s parents are not that kind of people.
"I said I wouldn't." Yang Xueer was so angry that she laughed, but after thinking about it, she felt that it would be more face-saving if her boyfriend drove a better car to take her home.
Thinking of this, Yang Xueer nodded: "Okay, then you can borrow a car from Senior Kong Liu. Don't borrow those weird-looking cars. They look expensive and too fake."
"Yeah, okay, I know." Wang Qi nodded seriously.
Yang Xueer continued, "When the time comes, you can have a reunion dinner at my house, and then go directly north to my hometown. Just park your car at my house and don't drive away."
The reason why Yang Xueer said this was that she was worried that Wang Qi would be too tired to drive back to his hometown alone. The two of them calculated that it would take at least one day to get from Pengcheng to Wang Qi's hometown. How could Yang Xueer feel at ease if Wang Qi drove alone for a day and a night?
"Yeah, okay." Wang Qi also nodded. "Driving is indeed too tiring. I'll buy a ticket home from Pengcheng when the time comes."
The two of them were planning to meet the parents, but Chen Zhirui and Zhou Xiaonan were still discussing which dish was spicy and which was not.
“Is the pig’s trotter delicious?”
“It’s a little spicy, but it’s okay.”
"Then let me try it."
“Are beans delicious?”
“Not spicy, delicious.”
"Then I won't eat..."
The two of them were concentrating on eating.
Besides the two of them, there was another person at the table who was also concentrating on showing off his fandom.
That is...Gu Chenxuan.
"Sister Suya, I want to eat that pig's trotter!"
"Sister Su, help me pick up some hot pot meatballs."
"Sister, I want that pork rib soup."
"Sister, do you have any chicken feet left?"
"I want to eat bullfrog..."
By the end, Gu Chenxuan was too lazy to even call Su Ya's name.
Su Ya was very patient. She would help Gu Chenxuan pick up the food for her, and they would eat it one by one, showing such harmony and understanding.
If it were Gu Chenxi, she would have beaten Gu Chenxuan a long time ago - because this is how sisters should be when getting along with each other.
"Eat slowly. I'll serve you more after you finish."
Su Ya looked at Gu Chenxuan with a smile, she really liked this little girl.
Gu Chenxi is so good to her, and she also likes her sister very much. She also helped Gu Chenxuan with her lessons. It is normal for the two of them to have a good relationship after spending a long time in contact with each other.
Gu Chenxuan always said before that she wanted Su Ya to be her sister - and she was often beaten by Gu Chenxi.
Opposite Gu Chenxuan and Su Ya, Xu Kun and the three boys who played music had been drinking, and after drinking they started bragging.
I won't demonstrate the bragging content again, it's almost the same as what Du Hongyuan and Wang Qi did when they were drunk before.
This time, Kong Liu didn't take out his phone to take ugly photos of the guys, but Du Hongyuan did...
Well, he has learned all of Gong Yoo's little tricks.
……
After dinner, the boys gathered together to play poker, while the girls sat together eating melon seeds and chatting.
Du Hongyuan and Shen Xia also went to the braised food shop downstairs to buy some duck and braised food to satisfy everyone's cravings.
Everyone just sat there and waited until about 12:15, when the housewarming ceremony was about to begin. Shen Xia and Du Hongyuan began to organize everyone, emphasizing to them what to hold in their hands and what auspicious words to say when they entered the house.
The task that Du Hongyuan assigned to Gong Liu was to hold two handfuls of banknotes in his hands and shout: Money is rolling in, and wealth is coming in.
Gong Yoo asked curiously, "Why do you want me to take the money?"
Du Hongyuan said: "Because you are the richest, you have to shout, this will bring wealth to my new home!"
Gong Yoo said with a bit of a smile: "So you think I'm a lucky cat?"
After arranging your positions and the auspicious words to be said, you go out and prepare.
After Du Hongyuan knocked on the door, Shen Xia opened it.
Du Hongyuan carried a red ladder and said, "Step by step, we will rise higher and higher."
A group of people came in one after another, saying auspicious words.
What is the blessing of abundant wealth, good fortune, and peace every year...

After a busy day, the housewarming ceremony of this new home was officially over, and everyone started to leave...
