As soon as the uncle and nephew of the Xiang family left, Yang Huazhong winked at Mrs. Sun.

Mrs. Sun immediately understood and hurried to the backyard to find Little Duo. Some things were inconvenient for her father to ask, so it was better for her mother to ask.

“Tang YaZi, I see your face is all red, have you had too much to drink?” Yang HuaZhong turned around and saw his eldest son-in-law, Luo Feng Tang, and asked kindly.

Luo Fengtang smiled, "Well, I was happy at noon, so I drank a few more cups."

Yang Huazhong said, "Haha, I'm very happy this afternoon and drank quite a bit, but among you, Uncle Xiang drank the most."

Luo Fengtang nodded. "Uncle Xiang has a good tolerance for alcohol; he looks like he can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk."

Yang Huazhong said: "He used to be a cattle dealer outside, drinking was common practice, that's how he learned it."

"Oh, this wine isn't anything good. Drinking too much will damage your liver and lead to cirrhosis. Father, you should drink in moderation from now on and not indulge excessively!" Yang Ruoqing walked over and said to Yang Huazhong in a commanding tone.

Yang Huazhong was stunned for a moment, then pointed at Yang Ruqing and said to Luofengtang: "See? We men, when we're young, our parents tell us what to do. After we get married, our wives tell us what to do. And when our daughters grow up, they tell us what to do! All our lives, there are always women telling us what to do!"

Luo Fengtang's lips curled into a joyful smile, looking at Yang Ruoqing, his eyes were full of smiles.

He was quite happy to be told what to do by Qing'er!

Yang Ruqing frowned at Yang Huazhong, and said in a coquettish tone: "Father, don't change the subject. Just tell me if you listen to my words or not!"

Yang Huazhong nodded repeatedly: "Listen, Dad will definitely listen. But you can speak to me like this, but don't talk to Tang Yazi like this in front of others. He is your husband and needs face!"

Yang Ruqing then turned to Luofeng Tang, and deliberately asked, "My father told me to stay out of your affairs. So, am I not giving you face in public?"

For the wife-obsessed Luo Fengtang, this kind of question, when answered by other men, was a display of survival instincts.

But here, he just shook his head without a thought.

"Father-in-law, Qing'er treats me well!" he said to Yang Huazhong with a very serious expression.

“I know my daughter’s personality better than anyone, so you don't need to speak for her.” Yang Huazhong had had a few too many drinks today, so he was being a bit more outspoken.

"I've seen her glare at you before, forbidding you from drinking too much. Don't be afraid, Táng Yázǐ, if she bullies you, tell your father-in-law! Tell him and he'll speak to her!"

To show his openness and fairness, Yang Huazhong also reached out and patted Luofeng Tang's shoulder.

Now, Luofeng Tang said: "Father-in-law, you misunderstood. Qing'er wasn't glaring at me, she was also implying that I should drink less and eat more vegetables. Her eyes were full of concern, she cares about me, I'm serious!"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Yang Huazhong was stunned. Looking at his own daughter's powerful and influential son-in-law, he suddenly realized that in front of his daughter, he had completely become a different person.

Even his wife's glare could be understood as concern, standing from a man's perspective, Yang Huazhong felt that this was just what it meant to be a "wife slave."

But from his father-in-law's point of view, he was very satisfied.

“Haha, one willing to fight and the other willing to be beaten. That's all there is to it,” Yang Huazhong said with a dry laugh.

Yang Ruqing said, "Father, you've really had too much to drink today. You're talking a lot. Hurry back home and have some tea."

Then, she pushed Yang Huazhong a few steps towards the main hall.

Then she turned to Luofengtang and said, "You shouldn't just stand there either. You've been drinking until your face and eyes are red, and your head feels like it's filled with a few pounds of rocks! Get home quickly and take a nap!"

Luo Fengtang raised his hand and rubbed his temples. He really felt dizzy.

My heart thought, "My daughter-in-law truly has a mind like my own. She can tell that I'm feeling unwell."

"When will you go back?" he asked.

Yang Ruqing said, "I still have some things to do here. I'll be back after I'm done."

Luo Fengtang nodded. "Okay, I'll go first then."

Yang Ruqing and Xiaohua, knowing the outcome already, proactively took on all the chores in the kitchen so that Mrs. Sun could go to Xiao Duo's room for a proper talk.

By the time the two of them had tidied up the kitchen, Mrs. Sun had already returned to the main hall and was talking with Yang Huazhong.

Looking at Mrs. Sun's beaming face, Yang Ruqing and Xiaohua exchanged glances, both knowing that the matter was almost settled.

“I heard magpies chirping in the trees outside while I was washing dishes earlier. It seems like there will be good news happening in this house soon!” Yang Ruqing said teasingly.

Sun said, "It's the middle of winter. Where could there be magpies?"

Yang Ruqing smiled. Of course she knew there were no magpies, it was intentional that she said so. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"There might not be a magpie, but this good news is coming soon, isn't it?" she teased again.

Mrs. Sun beamed with delight and said, "I was just telling your father about this! Duo'er has agreed, she likes him!"

Yang Ruqing smiled, "As expected of them two. In fact, they had met the day before yesterday, but Duo'er, that little girl, didn't tell me."

“Oh no, they just met today too. I don't think they knew each other's names before.” She added.

Sun shi was astonished, "What's the situation? Tell me quickly."

Yang Ruqing said: “Let Xiaohua speak, she was with me at the time and heard it too. I need to drink some water to wet my throat.”

Xiaohua blurted out everything she had heard.

Yang Huazhong and Mrs. Sun were both surprised and touched, "It seems this Xiang Sheng is a good man. He accompanies our daughter and knows how to care for people."

Yang Ruqing pondered for a moment and said, "Well, I agree with that, but at the same time, I have another concern, I hope I'm not overthinking it."

"What do you want?" Yang Huazhong asked.

Yang Ruqing said, "He met our little Duo by the bamboo grove, so he made a companion for her. If he had met someone else, who wasn't as pretty as Duo, would he still keep company?"

"Besides, when he marries Xiaoduo in the future, will he habitually show pity and favor to other girls he meets outside? That wouldn't be good!"

Yang Huazhong remained silent, clearly lost in thought on the matter.

Sun also said, “I once heard that the more handsome a man is, the more women he attracts. Your Uncle Si is the best example. Your Aunt Si has never had a peaceful day.”

“This Item Shengnan, she's not bad looking…”

“Once upon a time, I might have thought like Mother. But ever since I married Dainan, I realized that not everything is always true.”

"So, I wouldn't dare to judge Xiang Shengnan's character based on his appearance. Besides, my brother-in-law is also handsome. He has been devoted to my sister for all these years since their marriage!"

Yang Ruqing also nodded: “In terms of appearance, our Dayan is ten times more beautiful than that Xiangnü. But Dayan's conduct is upright. In the capital, she doesn't even have a maid serving her, only two elderly servants and attendants.” Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate! ?

"He never goes to those places that serve flower wine, nor does he engage in romantic affairs."

On the contrary, like Wangfu from our village and several other men, the uglier they are, the less capable they are, the more restless they become. This is what we call "ugly people make more mischief!"

"So, what's the real deal with Xiang Shengnan? We should honestly lay out her good points, bad points, and concerns to Duoer. Let her experience it for herself and make her own decision. What do you guys think?"
