Xu Damao seemed to be awakened by the excitement. He turned over and muttered, "Keep drinking...keep drinking..." Then he fell into a deep sleep again.

He seemed to be gently awakened by the noise of the banquet in his dream. His eyelids struggled for a moment, but were finally gently pulled back by the warm dream.

He murmured incoherently: "Where's the wine? Don't stop... keep filling it up..." Before he finished his words, he fell into a deep sleep again, with a smug smile on his face.

In this bizarre dream, Xu Damao suddenly turned into a wronged young wife, while his father-in-law, Lou Bancheng, became the old father-in-law who knelt on the washboard, crying and performing a drama of "deep repentance".

Lou Bancheng cried so hard that his heart was broken, as if all his dissatisfaction with his son-in-law over the years had turned into tears at this moment: "Son, I was wrong! I shouldn't have given you a hard time because of your romantic affairs, and I shouldn't have harbored resentment because of your occasional unfilial behavior.

From now on, I will treat you like my own son and make up for my past neglect!"

As he spoke, Lou Bancheng mysteriously took out two treasures from his arms: a yellowed treasure map that seemed to point to a huge treasure hidden in the world.

There is also an ancient book with "The Secret of Controlling Your Wife" on the cover, claiming that it can make any strong lady fall at his feet (no, under his pants).

Xu Damao couldn't stop laughing in his dream, thinking: "This father-in-law is really kind. Family members can still be relied on at critical moments!"

However, there is always a world of difference between reality and dreams.

In reality, Lou Bancheng was sitting in the living room with a calm face, muttering to himself: "I would rather die than let my friend die. Son-in-law, I'm sorry for this time." He had already blamed all the "feat" of being drunk on his son-in-law, and he was enjoying this rare peace and quiet leisurely.

When a ray of sunlight shone through the gap in the curtains onto Xu Damao's smiling face, he suddenly woke up, then looked around in confusion, "Huh? Where are my treasure map and secret book? How come they are all gone when I woke up?"

Looking around, I found that everything was just a dream.

As for the "deeply repentant" father-in-law and the treasure secret book, I'm afraid they can only be savored in dreams.

Xu Damao rubbed his eyes. The headache from the hangover made him miserable.

He tried hard to recall what happened last night, but he only remembered the scene of drinking with his father-in-law.

He was actually arm-in-arm with Old Taishan? They were brothers? He even forced him to drink alcohol with his mouth?

It’s over, it’s over. His wife had repeatedly warned him not to drink too much, so why did he still get drunk?

At this time, Lou Xiao'e's voice came from outside the door: "Xu Damao, get up and eat."

Xu Damao was startled and quickly replied, "My wife is here."

He took a deep breath and pushed the door open.

"Wife, I..."

The quickly organized speech in my mind was abruptly interrupted by the father-in-law's pole in the living room.

"Xu Damao, you are really amazing. You relied on your youth to get an old man like me drunk and made me unconscious.

It's really a pity that I love you so much!"

Xu Damao thought to himself, "It's over. Whatever I fear will come true."

Looking at his wife's meaningful expression, he hurriedly said, "Dad! We can't be so deceiving. If you hadn't dragged me down like that, how could I have the courage to drink with you all night?"

"Is that true? If you hadn't instigated me, with my self-control, would I risk going against your mother-in-law's wishes and drink so much with a half-baked son like you?" Lou Bancheng said in a warning tone.

Xu Damao sighed inwardly: "This old man is really good at passing the buck.

It's like you're afraid of your wife, but I'm not."

Alas! The deep friendship between the brothers who drank together collapsed in an instant.

The boat of friendship can capsize at any time.

"Dad, this is all my fault. Don't worry, I will take the blame for you no matter how big the blame is."

Lou Bancheng glared at him and said, "Stop talking nonsense. Dinner will be served soon."

Xu Damao came close to Lou Xiaoe and explained in a flattering manner: "Wife...wife, I was forced."

Lou Xiao'e snorted, "Let's talk about it when we get home."

Xu Damao nodded repeatedly, but he was complaining in his heart.

At the dinner table, the atmosphere was a little subtle because of the conversation just now.

Lou Bancheng put a piece of pickled vegetables into Xu Damao's bowl with chopsticks and said casually, "Damo, it's inevitable for men to socialize outside, but health is more important. Don't forget that you still have a family to take care of."

Xu Damao quickly agreed: "Yes, yes, Dad is right, I will be more careful in the future." As he said that, he did not forget to put a piece of ham in Lou Xiaoe's bowl, trying to ease the atmosphere.

Although Lou Xiao'e did not say anything, her eyes were a little softer. She gently used chopsticks to stir the food in the bowl, thinking secretly in her heart.

“Although Xu Damao sometimes has no choice but to attend social events, drinking too much like last night not only makes her angry, but also makes her worried.

The person he got drunk was Lou Bancheng. Even if he was a cheap dad he picked up along the way, he was still Lou Xiao'e's biological father.

Humph! I must prepare the tiger bench and pepper spray for Xu Damao when I get home tonight."

Tan Yali knew from her daughter's expression that her old man's attempt to trick his son-in-law was probably mostly successful.

"Da Mao, when it comes to drinking, you must not only choose the right wine, but also the right drinking buddies. You must also know how to control yourself and not drink too much, which can hurt your health."

Xu Damao nodded repeatedly, "Mom, don't worry, I'll remember it." He secretly complained in his heart, this family, not a single one is easy to deal with. "

Tan Yali rolled her eyes at the old man beside her, who looked innocent but could not hide his smugness, and said, "Choosing a drinking buddy is like choosing a partner, you have to have someone you can talk to and laugh with.

Otherwise, no matter how good the wine is, it will be tasteless without the right person.

As for those who cannot resonate with each other, even when faced with the most precious wine in the world, they may just remain silent or speak perfunctorily without meaning it.

Wine is a catalyst for emotions, but without true love, it is just like boiled water, bland and tasteless.

Remember, children, the culture at the wine table is like a small theater in life. Everyone is an actor and an audience member.

Here, a glass of wine can bring hearts closer together, and a well-placed joke can instantly liven up the atmosphere.

But at the same time, excessive indulgence and unrestrained words and deeds may become the topic of conversation for others after dinner, and even affect your image and reputation.

What you need to learn is to stay sober while drinking and not lose your sense of proportion while laughing.

The road ahead is still long, you will meet all kinds of people and experience all kinds of things.

But I believe that as long as you have a sense of propriety in your heart and act with moderation, you can win the respect and love of others no matter where you go.

Last night was a test from your father-in-law to you, and also a teaching on “taking risks with your own body”.

Damao, don't be afraid of being tested by your father-in-law, this is actually another way for him to recognize you."

Hearing this, Xu Damao's nervous expression gradually relaxed, and a knowing smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Mom, I finally understand. Drinking is not only about tasting wine, but also about tasting people and feelings. Don't worry, I will remember your and Dad's teachings in my heart."

Tan Yali nodded with a smile, raised her teacup, and gestured to her daughter's family of three and the smug old man standing beside her: "Come, I'll use tea instead of wine to toast you. May this warm and happy time in our family continue forever."

cheers.
