Build a giant by yourself
Chapter 52
Ning Xueqing''s face was full of loss. All her kindness was in vain. Naturally, she felt bad.
But now in this situation, no one dare to provoke Ning Guoxiang to anger, otherwise it will be more troublesome.
Although Ning Guoxiang doesn''t drink or eat vegetables, he doesn''t mean to go. He may be afraid that Ning Xueqing is too sad.
Fortunately, Tangtang was sensible and clever. She ran over and coaxed him in his arms. After Ning Guoxiang''s attention was transferred, her tone eased a lot.
After about 30 minutes, Huo Bufan came out of the kitchen wiping his hands and said, "Mom, I made a whole pot of soup dumplings first, and the rest was frozen in the refrigerator with dumplings. When you want to eat later, just put it in the pot and cook or steam it. "
"Oh, I see." Deng Junmei nodded and responded. Although her attitude was not too enthusiastic, it was much better than before.
But Ning Guoxiang was uncomfortable and said, "I don''t want to eat, take them all!"
Several people in the family looked at him, and his eyes made Ning Guoxiang even more unhappy.
What are you looking at me for?
The boy is weak and incompetent. Is it wrong for me to scold him?
Huo Bufan saw that the atmosphere was a little low. He heard what had just happened in the kitchen.
Seeing Ning Guoxiang still sticking his neck like a stubborn donkey, he glanced at the wine pot on the table, then smiled and asked, "Dad, why didn''t you drink? It''s a fine daughter red specially bought for you. It''s 20 years old. "
"Not rare, take it!" Ning Guoxiang still said that.
In Ning Xueqing''s nervous gaze, Huo Bufan came and sat down, smiled and poured himself a cup, and then said, "I know you''re not in good health. You can''t drink a little. You''re all from your own family and don''t spell wine."
This remark pierced Ning Guoxiang''s armpit. He stared and said, "who told you I can''t drink? I don''t want to drink the wine you bought. It''s not rare. Can''t you understand? "
Ning Xueqing pinched her hands together, sweating nervously. She was afraid that her husband would stand up and rush out of the door as before.
However, Huo Bufan''s performance was beyond everyone''s expectation.
The smile on his face remained unchanged, and even his language was as calm as ever: "I took medicine two hours ago. Why did I have to insist that I can drink, and I''m not an outsider. It''s normal to be old and can''t drink. It''s not necessary. "
"Fart!" Ning Guoxiang slapped the table and stood up.
Ning Xueqing''s frightened face turned white. When she was about to persuade, Ning Guoxiang had already gone upstairs.
Ning Yulin looked at Huo Bufan with a headache: "my brother, what are you doing? You have to make him angry to be happy?"
Deng Junmei is also very unhappy, but Ning Guoxiang picked the thorn first. No matter how much dissatisfaction she has, she can''t say it directly.
Ning Xueqing was about to say something, but Huo Bufan clapped her hands on the back first. Gave her a comforting smile and said, "don''t worry, it''s okay."
Looking at the smile on his face, Ning Xueqing was slightly stunned and suddenly realized that Huo Bufan did this on purpose.
As for why he did it deliberately, I don''t know.
At this time, the sound of pedaling footsteps sounded.
Several people turned around and saw Ning Guoxiang coming down from upstairs with two bottles of Wuliangye.
With a calm face, he patted the wine bottle on the table and said coldly, "Wuliangye in 2008 has been put for more than ten years now. It''s better than your shit aged for 20 years! Didn''t I say I can''t drink? OK, you drink yellow rice wine and I drink this. If you fall down first, get out of here as far as you can! "
"Dad, what are you doing?" Ning Xueqing hurriedly advised, "shuhuan, he doesn''t mean anything else. He just cares about your body."
"Don''t do this. I don''t know whether he cares or not? Don''t you just think I''m old and buried my ankle in the Loess? Compete with me? When I put down a piece of people on the wine table, he didn''t know where to play with the mud! " Ning Guoxiang opened Wuliangye as he said.
He poured the yellow wine on the floor and added a glass of Baijiu.
"How old are you, and you fight with people because of one word!" Deng Junmei said she was going to bring the wine glass.
But Ning Guoxiang refused to give it. When he was anxious, he glared and cursed.
Seeing that the husband and wife were going to fight, Huo Bufan said, "Yulin, go upstairs with your sister. I have to see how good the old man is today. Who won''t brag? You can bluff people with two bottles of Wuliangye? "
Ning Yulin was also a little upset. He felt that Huo Bufan was kicking his nose and face today, but when he was about to speak, he saw Huo Bufan wink.
If you change to the previous one, such a look will only make Ning Yulin ignore it directly.
But now Huo Bufan has changed his impression in his mind. Even in many times, Ning Yulin is about to have a little worship for him.
I know that my brother-in-law is not really incompetent and does things in an orderly way.
It is reasonable to say that with his previous performance, he should not be so arrogant today.
Now seeing Huo Bufan''s eyes, Ning Yulin immediately understood that he was intentional.
As a man, Ning Yulin vaguely understood why Huo Bufan did so.
After a little hesitation, he got up and said to Deng Junmei and Ning Xueqing, "Mom, sister, let''s go upstairs and let them just come here."
"What are you talking about? It''s your father!" Deng Junmei scolded.
"Who can persuade him to drink himself? What if you hit me back? OK, you don''t know Li Shuheng''s drinking capacity. Can you drink more than my father? It''s okay. Let''s go and let them finish drinking. " Ning Yulin said and forced them upstairs.
As for sugar, it stayed there.
The little girl looked curiously at Ning Guoxiang and Huo Bufan. She bit her finger and hesitated for a long time. Finally, she said, "Dad, grandpa is old. Don''t bully him."
"Can I let him be bullied? Joke! " Ning Guoxiang disdained.
Huo Bufan didn''t say much either. He poured himself a full cup of yellow rice wine, took it up and said, "OK, I''ll respect you for the first cup. I''ll do it first!"
After that, Huo Bufan lifted his neck and drank a cup full of yellow rice wine.
Put down the cup and he said, "I don''t bully you. The degree of yellow rice wine is low. I''ll have a drink and you''ll have a finger."
"Do you really think I''m easy to bully? If you want to drink, drink it all! " Ning Guoxiang will give up more than 40 degrees of Baijiu, a full cup, directly into the mouth.
Although he is a regular drinker, Baijiu is still a little out of touch with such a lot of liquor.
Huo Bufan didn''t give him much time to rest. He soon poured a second cup of yellow rice wine: "I respect you the second cup."
After another drink, Ning Guoxiang followed closely.
Basically, the two cups of Baijiu were half a kilo. Ning Guoxiang''s face was red and wine was rising.
"Third, I toast you." Huo Bufan raised his glass again.
Upstairs at this time, Deng Junmei and Ning Xueqing are difficult to sit and stand.
Let these two people who don''t deal with fight for wine there. Isn''t it obvious that something will happen?
It''s ok if you drink too much. What if you fight while drinking?
"No, I have to go down and persuade!" Deng Junmei got up and said.
Ning Yulin hurriedly stopped her and said, "Mom, don''t worry. Shuhuan has a sense of propriety. He won''t really treat his father like that."
"Whose son are you? That''s your father. How old is he. Besides, does Li Shuheng look like a son-in-law? Obviously angry with your father! " Deng Junmei said angrily.
Ning Yulin shrugged and said, "I know, but I think he did it for a reason. Although not very sure, I think he may want to drink to ease the tense relationship. Men, there''s nothing you can''t negotiate at the wine table. If you can''t negotiate once, then do it again. "
"What nonsense!" Deng Junmei didn''t bother to talk to him, so she pushed away and walked downstairs.
As soon as I got to the stairs, I heard that it was hot below.
"I''ll tell you, just you, boy, not a! Do you know? Not a! I drink two Jin of Baijiu and beer, you drank me? I won''t give you any color. Do you think I open the dyeing room? "
Ning Guoxiang said this. Deng Junmei looked up from upstairs and saw that what he had drunk was red from his neck to his face.
A bottle of Wuliangye had been poured on the table and was obviously empty.
