Chapter 441 Old Liu, Pour the Wine
Yang Lijun snapped out of his daze and quickly pulled out his cigar box from his pocket: "Xiao Kun, that should be on me. I can't let you owe me a favor and give me something in return."
Chang Kun declined, saying, "Brother-in-law, I can't smoke this. You take it back for Grandpa Yang to try."
As the two were struggling, Chang Dashan, who had been sobering up inside the house, came out, staggering.
"Hey...neither of you two smoke this stuff? Give it to me, give it to me..."
He spoke incoherently, clearly still not fully sober.
Today, the whole family gathered together. Not only him, but even his uncle, who has a high alcohol tolerance, got a little drunk.
"Why are you everywhere!" Liu Meifen said disdainfully, pulling the old man away and whispering a few words in his ear.
"What?! Lijun's going to be a driver at a cannery?!"
Upon hearing this news, Chang Dashan sobered up instantly and stared wide-eyed at Yang Lijun.
Yang Lijun nodded with a smile: "It was all arranged by Xiao Kun. I never imagined I could go from an ordinary worker to a driver so quickly!"
I still feel like I haven't quite come to my senses. It's just that the change from having my job taken away to now being a driver, which is the best job in the world, is too big!
Chang Dashan paused for a moment, then shook his head and burst into laughter: "This is great news! Our Lijun is going to be a driver in the city, hahaha!"
He chuckled a few times, then, remembering something, waved to Liu Meifen: "Old Liu, go get some peanuts and potatoes or something. I'm going to have a drink with Lijun and Xiao Kun. I'm so happy today, so incredibly happy!"
Good things happen all at once—a family reunion and work—which really excited him.
Liu Meifen couldn't resist the urge to touch him. This Chang Dashan, when he's drunk, doesn't know what he's saying, and he still dares to call her Old Liu?!
You're so drunk, and you still dare to drink more!
She endured it again and again; with her son-in-law here, she had to give the old man some face!
Besides, the old man said he wanted to drink with his son-in-law again, so how could she refuse? People who didn't know better might think she was stingy.
"Xiaomei, come in and help!"
She turned and went back to the kitchen in a huff, but then suddenly laughed.
That's great! My second sister has been found, and my son-in-law has also secured a job. Life is getting better and better.
Boiled peanuts, tomatoes with sugar, and a cold cabbage heart salad are all great snacks to enjoy with drinks.
Since everything is good today, let's let the old man have a drink.
Chang Mei couldn't help but hum a little tune, and the little baby in her arms smiled and babbled in response.
"Little brother, let me toast you!"
On the stone table, Chang Mei solemnly raised her glass to Chang Kun.
Today's events are truly the biggest event for Changmei's little family.
With his younger brother's help, Lijun not only got a job in the city, but also an unexpected driver position.
She was extremely grateful for all of this.
Chang Kun quickly raised his glass, slightly lower than his elder sister's, and gently touched it to hers: "Elder sister, we're family, so let's not be so formal. Please drink less."
In his previous life, he was all alone and miserable. If it weren't for his eldest sister's help and support, he probably would have already given up and left this world.
Now that he's doing well, he'll definitely do his best to help his older sister. Seeing the smiles on his sister's and brother-in-law's faces makes him very happy.
With all the previous unpleasantness gone, Chang Mei felt very relieved and tilted her head back to drink a small glass of wine down her throat.
Yang Lijun followed closely behind, raising his glass in a toast to Chang Kun.
"Brother-in-law, let's not waste any more time and have a drink."
After having another drink with his brother-in-law, Chang Kun quickly ate a couple of bites of cold cabbage heart salad to calm his alcohol fumes.
Liu Meifen watched the siblings laughing so hard her eyes disappeared.
Since her eldest daughter got married, she often missed her. Seeing the family so happy and harmonious, she really wished that Xiaomei could stay at home forever.
Thinking of this, she asked, "Hey, Lijun will be working in the city from now on. Yangjiatun is so far away, won't that be inconvenient?"
Yang Lijun smiled and said, "Mom, it's good enough that I can work in the city. Why should I be picky? It's far to the city, so I'll just get up earlier."
Liu Meifen's eyes lit up: "If that doesn't work, how about you find a place in the city?"
"Oh my goodness, finding a house in the city? It's not that easy! I remember we spent quite a long time looking for this place we have now!"
Chang Mei had no intention of moving to the city. In her view, moving to the city would have to wait several years, until Li Jun's job was stable and the family's financial situation improved.
"Hey! What's so difficult about it? It's all about finding the right people!" Liu Meifen slapped her thigh. "When we were looking for a house, Xiao Kun was aiming for a whole yard... If it's just two rooms for you two, then it'll be much easier!"
After a few months of training at the supply and marketing cooperative, it really did have some effect.
Now, Liu Meifen talks about things in the city with great knowledge and expertise.
"Really?" Chang Mei's eyes lit up as she stared at her mother. "Mom, tell me in detail!"
"Uh... I don't know the specifics, but it seems that as long as you have a job in the city, you can get on the waiting list for a house." Liu Meifen didn't know the details either, but that was the general idea.
Chang Mei then turned to Chang Kun: "Brother, you're very capable, go and ask around for your older sister!"
"Okay, this shouldn't be too difficult. There are people lining up to give gifts everywhere. Let's use our connections."
Before Chang Kun could finish speaking, Liu Meifen interrupted, "Doesn't Grandpa Hong next door have an empty house in his yard? Xiao Kun, you should ask around when you have time. If you can get a house there, that would be great, and we could live together!"
"What a great thing!"
Chang Mei looked on with even greater anticipation, her eyes sparkling.
It's so great to be able to live next door to my parents!
If that's the case, I can see my parents, younger brother, and younger sister every day.
We'll wait in the city until Xiao Bao grows up a bit, so he can go to school like Xiao Qing and the others.
She never imagined such a day would come!
Yang Lijun poured Chang Kun another glass of wine: "Xiao Kun, I owe you more and more favors!"
If the whole family can move to the city, Chang Kun helped them with their jobs and even the house. Such a brother-in-law is truly hard to find in this world.
"Brother-in-law, I'll go ask about it later. Let's have a drink first."
Chang Dashan glanced at his son, then at his daughter and son-in-law, and feeling the effects of the alcohol, he felt that his life had been truly worthwhile.
He slammed his hand on the table and shouted, "Old Liu, pour the wine!"
"I want to have a good drink with my son and son-in-law!"
The little girls, including Xiaoqing, were playing and laughing nearby when they heard their father shouting loudly and turned around in surprise.
Is this still Dad?
When have you ever yelled at your mother like this at home?
Chang Mei stared wide-eyed at her father, noticing his flushed face and swaying head, realizing it was from the effects of alcohol.
Liu Meifen glared at the old man with annoyance, but held back her anger and still poured him a small cup.
I'm happy today, so I won't stoop to his level.
I'll settle the score with him tomorrow when I'm sober!
