Chapter 75 (1/2)
Zhao Rongtian has always been very restrained in drinking. Today's new year's day, he drank a few more cups. Li Shuo also allowed his father to drink a beer.
Without the usual big president's arms, the two brothers in charge of the family also talked about jokes. There were festive programs on TV. There were gorgeous fireworks flying out of the window from time to time, which had a strong taste of new year.
Li Shuo accompanied him for a few drinks. He was so worried that he couldn't get up his spirits to socialize. He pretended to be drunk and hid away.
After a while, Zhao Jinxin followed and handed him a glass of ice soda. ”Come on, have a drink.”
Li Shuo took a sip and felt his brain was clear.
Zhao Jinxin said in a low voice, ”I'm going to be angry with someone who makes you unhappy during the Spring Festival.”
Li Shuo thought to himself, you are the one who makes me unhappy.
Zhao Jinxin also pretended to be drunk, askew to lishuo, and said sweetly, ”this is the first year we spent together.”
Li Shuo quickly sat up straight, deliberately loudly said: ”Jin Xin, are you ok? Let me help you to have a rest. ”
Zhao Rongtian waved his hand and said with a big tongue, ”Hey, he just took a few drinks, don't worry about him.”
Mrs. Li came over with a smile: ”isn't Jinxin very good at drinking, or go to have a rest first, and then call you after eating dumplings in the evening.”
”It's OK, auntie. I'll take a moment.” As he said this, Li Shuo fell down with his head resting on Li Shuo's legs. Li Shuo didn't get up, nor did he sit there. Only when his mother left, he lifted Zhao Jin to the ground.
But Mrs. Li not only didn't leave, but also looked at them kindly for a few seconds, which made lishuo's scalp numb. She just took out a red bag from her handbag, ”Jinxin, come to pay homage to the new year.”
Zhao Jinxin opened his eyes and sat up with a smile: ”happy new year to my aunt, happy new year.” Then he took the red envelope and said with a smile, ”Wow, it's thick.” He also shook Li Shuo and smiled like a child who had taken advantage of it.
Li Shuo couldn't help laughing.
”Oh, I'm ready, too.” Mrs. Zhao came over with a big red bag in her hand and gave it to Li Shuo.
Li Shuo declined with a smile: ”Auntie, it's not appropriate. How could I accept such a big red envelope?”
”My principle is that as long as you are not married, you should give red envelopes.” Mrs. Zhao took Li Shuo's hand and put the red envelope in his palm. ”Take it, Li Shuo. Thank you for taking care of Jin Xin. My father and I thank you very much.”
”Auntie, you're welcome. It's all right.”
Mrs. Zhao said with a smile, ”you are so mature and steady. You are more like a brother than Jinxin's brother. Oh, Jinxin has a cousin, who is also in the capital. When you are free...”
Zhao Jinxin quickly interrupted: ”Mom, where's my red bag?”
Mrs. Zhao touched his head: ”I'll talk about it later.”
Li Shuo didn't show anything, just thanks again.
Zhao Jinxin is afraid of his mother saying anything more. He quickly pulls up Li Shuo: ”let's go. Let's unpack the red envelopes.”
