Chapter 140: Our Dignity Oh
Cai Ming knew that since he was coming today, his sister would definitely have to host him, but looking at the dumplings filled with meat and the chicken stewed with mushrooms, he really didn’t know what to do.
"This is a bit too lavish, isn’t it?" Cai Ming quietly pulled Cai Meina aside.
Cai Ming really worried that his brother-in-law’s friends might have opinions. "We don’t even have such feasts at home during the New Year."
Even though their parents loved their older brother dearly, they never had so much meat. It may even be more than what they’d have in months.
"Don’t worry, we’re all going to eat. And I told you, eating well helps us keep healthy and strong for work in the fields," Cai Meina said, indicating that since Zhao Gang and the others had no complaints, they should let her brother stay for a few more days.
"And don’t think we eat like this all the time. We only killed the chicken because you came today, so there won’t be this treatment every day." Cai Meina reassured Cai Ming not to worry.
"Alright, go and have dinner." Cai Meina gave Cai Ming a push. If the guest doesn’t sit at the table, no one dares to start eating.
Helplessly, Cai Ming carefully sat down by the kang table, looking around and noticing that his brother-in-law’s friend’s wife wasn’t there, which made him anxious.
Even though they say men are the breadwinners, you can’t underestimate women. He worried she might dislike him or have opinions about his sister, keeping Cai Ming from daring to reach out for any dishes.
"Mei Na, Zhan Jing isn’t feeling well today, why don’t you fix her a plate," Zhao Gang said excitedly, pouring three bowls of liquor.
