At the dining table.
The atmosphere was not good.
In the end, Second Sister-in-law braced herself and said, "I was just saying. How can I represent the entire family?"
Dong Xuebing was shocked. "Are you regretting your decision?"
The Second Sister-in-law replied. "My words are just a description and an idiom. I don't mean anything else." Dong Xuebing looked at her weirdly.
"But everyone is listening. I also know this is an idiom to describe something good falling from the sky. That's why I asked you if it's a gift from the sky. You still said yes and said you can represent the Fang family. That's why God gave us a gift from the heavens. Why are you regretting your decision now? I'm fine with it and I don't mind. I just feel like we're letting God down. God is watching us from above. It's not nice for us to fool him like this. "
The Second Sister-in-law replied. "Stop talking about superstition!"
Dong Xuebing blinked. "I think this is not just superstition. It is also a matter of trust. Our Fang family has always been upright, and my grandfather had always said he is good at teaching his children. He is … Sigh … Never mind. I will not say anything else."
The Second Sister-in-law stared at Dong Xuebing. "You still have not said enough?"
Dong Xuebing's Second Brother was furious. He looked at his wife and shouted. "Even eating can't stop you from talking?! If you don't want to eat, leave! "
The Second Sister-in-law was furious. "What's wrong with me saying a few words …"
"If you want to say something, go back to your room and say it to the wall!" Second Brother replied coldly.
Seeing that her husband was really angry, the second sister-in-law also pouted her lips and didn't say anything.
Second Brother looked up. "Dad, I did not teach her well. I will scold her when we get back."
Grand Elder Fang looked at his second daughter-in-law but did not say a word. It was obvious that he was very dissatisfied with his second daughter-in-law's performance today. They are a big family and not a small family. Even if they are political enemies, they should welcome them with a smile. Even if they do not agree to this marriage, they should at least send them off politely. This is etiquette. Dong Xuebing had been smiling ever since he arrived, and he is very considerate. Even if he tries to get close to his wife, he will still be nice to her. His attitude is very gentle, and he did everything right. The Fang Family's Second Sister-in-law had fallen out with him a few times, and they are at a disadvantage.
Senior Fang turned to Dong Xuebing. "Xiao Dong, eat while it's hot. Xiao Mei, help Brother Dong get some food."
Dong Xuebing laughed. "It's fine. I will do it myself. Don't worry. I will not stand on ceremony." Dong Xuebing ate a few mouthfuls and saw Fang Zhengzhi and a few other youngsters pouring wine for them. He also took out a bottle of Maotai. "Good wine. Can I try it?"
Third Brother nodded.
"Thank you, Third Uncle. Hehe … I have never tried this bottle of Maotai before. I can tell it's specially provided." Dong Xuebing poured himself a glass.
His eldest brother added. "If you like it, you can get a box of it later."
"Thank you. I will only try a few mouthfuls." Dong Xuebing started eating and drinking.
On the other side, Elder Fang asked, "Why didn't Xiaoling come back for dinner?"
Xiao Ling's mother glanced at Dong Xuebing. "Dad, I called her earlier, and she said she will not be coming back for dinner. She has an appointment with her classmates." Fang Shuiling had told Dong Xuebing over the phone that she will be at Senior Xie's place with Xie Ran, but Xiao Ling's mother did not dare to tell Senior Xie.
Senior Fang nodded and did not say anything.
Fang Wenping didn't say a word from beginning to end. She was the first to leave after the meal. She didn't even say anything to the people at the table. She was very unconventional. She sat on the sofa and crossed her legs to watch the news. Everyone is used to Fifth Brother's character and did not feel anything.
After dinner.
Everyone still has something to attend to and prepared to leave.
"Xiao Dong, thank you for your family's invitation. Please go back and inform your family." Fang Wenping's eldest brother said.
It's dark.
It's getting late.
They felt Dong Xuebing will not be able to stay if they send him off.
But they had underestimated Dong Xuebing's rashness. He stood up from his chair and was about to walk out when he staggered. "Ah!" He stumbled out and almost fell. He barely managed to grab hold of the sofa and sat down on it. He covered his forehead and said, "I can't take it anymore. I drank too much. My head is spinning. Look at what happened. I've embarrassed myself in front of everyone."
Xiao Ling's mother asked. "What should we do?"
Third Brother asked. "Should we get someone to send you home?"
Dong Xuebing waved his hand. "It's fine. Don't worry about me. Everyone should go back. Everyone is busy. I will rest for a while."
Rest for a while?
Everyone almost vomited blood!
Don't tell me you want to stay here tonight? F * ck, how much did you drink and you're already like this?
Everyone looks at Dong Xuebing and does not know what to say. This is the first time they heard of someone staying at the other party's house when the other party does not agree!
Dong Xuebing replied drunkenly. "I'm sorry … I'm really sorry. I am not in my best condition today, and I hope everyone can forgive me. Err … I am feeling dizzy, and I don't know how to bring up this topic. Why don't we talk about it tomorrow? Ah … my head hurts."
Are you really going to stay here?!
Fang Wenping's Second Sister-in-law wanted to kick Dong Xuebing out of the house. She had never met such a rascal before!
But Senior Fang laughed. "Xiao Dong, you should go back today. I will arrange for a car to send you back." Before Dong Xuebing could say anything, Senior Fang said something shocking. "Third Brother will talk to your family about Xiao Ran and Xiao Ling's engagement."
"Ah?"
"Dad!"
"You …"
Everyone in the Fang family was stunned.
Dong Xuebing was also stunned. "Grandpa Fang …"
Grand Elder Fang smiled and said, "Since our family was the one who agreed to the pie that fell from the sky just now, we naturally have to take responsibility for it. Just like what you said, maybe this is really fate, hehe."
Fang Wenping's Second Sister-in-law quickly said. "Dad, I …"
Senior Fang said. "It's settled. You don't need to say anything."
The Fang family dare not to say anything, but they do not understand why Senior Fang suddenly changed his mind. Huh? That's not right. Even when Senior Fang rejected Dong Xuebing, he did not say anything. They know Senior Fang must have his reasons for making this decision.
Dong Xuebing laughed and sobered up. He stood up. "Alright. I will speak to my family, and we will discuss the betrothal gifts later."
