Chapter 100 Treating guests to dinner

In the morning, the first ray of sunlight poured into the room through the window, waking up Zhang Yuan from his deep sleep. He stretched himself, sat up from the bed, and prepared to get up to wash up; at this moment, a low snoring sound came from the guest room, and Zhang Yuan's heart tightened. Could it be that there was a thief in the house? He frowned nervously and walked carefully to the door of the guest room.

However, when he pushed open the door, he saw the brothers Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu lying on the bed, sleeping soundly. Zhang Yuan then breathed a sigh of relief and secretly laughed at himself for drinking too much last night and even forgetting to agree to let them stay overnight.

Looking at the two sleeping guys in front of him, Zhang Yuan thought that they would not wake up for a while, so he decided to go to work first. Before leaving, he left a note and fifty cents, hoping that they could use the money to buy some breakfast after waking up. After doing this, Zhang Yuan gently closed the door and walked out of the house.

As soon as he stepped out of the door, Zhang Yuan ran into Yi Zhonghai. During this period of time, Yi Zhonghai was in high spirits. Since he accepted Banggeng as his grandson, he was so happy. Yi Zhonghai loved Banggeng very much and treated him as his own son. He took good care of him as if he were his own grandson. Banggeng, the conscienceless little ungrateful man, became closer and closer to Yi Zhonghai and his wife, and even forgot that his original surname was Jia.

Yi Zhonghai greeted Zhang Yuan with a big smile on his face and asked him how he was doing. Seeing that he was in a good mood, Zhang Yuan smiled and replied, "Everything is fine, how about you?" Yi Zhonghai said proudly, "I am fine! With a good grandson like Banggeng, life is really full of fun." After saying that, he couldn't help laughing out loud.

Seeing Yi Zhonghai so happy, Zhang Yuan also smiled, and in his heart he was also laughing at Yi Zhonghai, saying that he would suffer in the future. After the two of them chatted hypocritically for a few words, Zhang Yuan said goodbye to Yi Zhonghai and continued on his way to the steel mill.

At this time, Yi Zhonghai was looking forward to the moment of reuniting with Banggeng in the evening. Now, after coming home from school every day, Banggeng would go to Yi's house first, because Auntie had prepared snacks for him early. Banggeng was very happy after eating them and called Auntie as a relative. This made Auntie happy, but it made Jia Zhangshi jealous to death. She would take out her anger on Qin Huairu at home every day and made Qin Huairu miserable.

At nightfall the next day, Zhang Yuan sent Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu to invite their second and third uncles to their home for dinner. When Liu Haizhong heard the message from his son, he suddenly felt angry: Why did his two beloved sons run away to serve others as running dogs? However, at this moment, he had something important to ask of others, so he temporarily spared Liu Guangtian's life. Liu Guangtian, who had no idea that he had escaped a disaster, was cheering in his heart, just because he thought that with Zhang Yuan's backing and support, his father would not trouble him, thus avoiding a heavy punishment from his father.

On the other side, after learning that Zhang Yuan was hosting a banquet, Yan Bugui was overjoyed and told the third aunt not to prepare her own dinner, and asked her to make sure to distribute the food properly.

After receiving repeated assurances from the third aunt, Yan Bugui contentedly picked up the bottle of wine that had been mixed with who knows how much boiled water, and under the resentful gaze of his children, he proudly went to Zhang Yuan's house to enjoy this sumptuous meal.

Zhang Yuan started to get busy after getting off work. He carefully prepared a sumptuous meal. Not only did he consider entertaining his own guests, he also made some extra food for Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu to take home and share with their families.

When Liu Haizhong saw this scene, he could not help but feel a warm current in his heart. He mistakenly thought that Zhang Yuan did this out of respect for him, and a gratified smile appeared on his face. However, at this moment, Liu Haizhong completely forgot about Yan Bugui standing beside him.

Yan Bugui was secretly glad that he could enjoy this delicious meal for free, but when he watched the Liu brothers happily go home with a big bowl of food, his mood suddenly became complicated. It was as if a bottle of mixed seasoning was knocked over on the ground, and all kinds of tastes surged into his heart.

For Yan Bugui, not taking advantage is a loss. Now that he sees others taking all the benefits, he naturally feels very upset and feels that he has suffered a heavy loss. This psychological gap makes him feel more and more that this deal is really not worth it.

"Old Yan! What's wrong with you? Look at your long face. Are you feeling unwell? Do you need to go back and rest first?" Liu Haizhong shouted at Yan Bugui calmly with a fake smile. He looked like a smug villain, and Yan Bugui was so angry that he cursed him in his heart.

However, before Yan Bugui could recover from his shock, Liu Haizhong began to show off again: "Hey, see? This is the fine wine I brought specially from home! It's a gift from one of my apprentices! It's the authentic Shanxi Fenjiu, very famous!" As he spoke, Liu Haizhong's face was full of pride that he could not conceal.

When Yan Bugui heard that Liu Haizhong had brought some wine, he immediately felt that the other party was deliberately making things difficult for him! Although Yan Bugui was usually stingy, he was at least a well-educated person, so he suppressed his anger, raised the bottle of liquor in his hand with a fake smile and shouted: "Oh, what a coincidence! I also happen to have a bottle of fine wine that I have treasured for many years! Why don't we taste it together today!"

"That's great! Let me see what kind of wine you have that is worth your cherishing." Without saying anything, Liu Haizhong snatched the bottle from Yan Bugui's hand and easily pulled off the bottle cap. He first smelled the smell at the bottle mouth, then frowned and blurted out bluntly: "Hey! What kind of good wine is this? There is no smell of alcohol at all! Old Yan, how much water did you mix in it!" Liu Haizhong exposed Yan Bugui's trick on the spot.

Yan Bugui smiled and insisted that his wine was good. He quickly explained, "Oh, you know how to taste wine, right? This wine with water added is good wine! I usually can't bear to take a sip myself. Today, Zhang Yuan invited us to dinner, so I gritted my teeth and endured the pain to contribute it to you so that you can have a taste."

Seeing that Yan Bugui treated the bottle of wine like a treasure, the simple-minded Liu Haizhong had no intention of letting him go. He stuffed the bottle back into Yan Bugui's hand with disgust, then took out the Fenjiu he brought with him and filled Zhang Yuan and his own glasses, leaving out Yan Bugui's share.

"Since you think it's so precious, then you can keep it for yourself and enjoy it slowly. Let's drink the Fenjiu wine I brought."

Yan Bugui regretted that he had said too much just now. At this moment, he smelled the aroma of Fenjiu. The strong aroma made him feel that the wine in his hand was not so precious. He stared at Liu Haizhong eagerly, hoping that Liu Haizhong could pour him a glass as well.
