Chapter 232 - 234 Drunk
The wedding definitely needed some celebration. Originally, Xu Yingying suggested going out to eat, but the Xu Zhenguo Couple felt eating out wasn’t as casual. In the end, they made a feast at home. Although it was just the five of them, it was still lively because there was the lively sister-in-law Xu Shanshan, who teased Li Yifei from time to time, naturally bringing much joy.
The Xu Zhenguo Couple drank quite a bit of alcohol tonight and were overjoyed. Xu Zhenguo patted Li Yifei on the shoulder and said, "Yifei, I’ll leave Yingying in your hands from now on. My daughter has quite a temper. If she does anything wrong, don’t hesitate to scold her or even discipline her. Although women need a bit of pampering, it shouldn’t be excessive."
Xu Yingying immediately protested, "Dad, why aren’t you siding with your daughter?"
Xu Zhenguo laughed heartily and said, "Of course, I pamper my daughter, but once she’s married, she’s forming a new family. Inevitably, there will be friction between them. If he blindly agrees with you, in the end, it could lead to bigger problems. You’re too strong-willed; I don’t want Yifei to be too weak in front of you."
Li Yifei chuckled and said, "Dad, you don’t need to worry about that." After getting the marriage certificate, Xu Zhenguo Couple insisted Li Yifei change the way he addressed them. Initially, it felt awkward for Li Yifei, but after a few times, it felt quite natural.
The most important thing was that after his parents passed away, Li Yifei never had this familial feeling again. In Xu Yingying’s home, he felt this sensation once more. Even if it wasn’t for the fake marriage with Xu Yingying, having Xu Zhenguo Couple treat him so well, changing the way he addressed them was no big loss.
Xu Yingying’s mother chimed in at this moment, "The most important thing for you two is to have children early. Yifei, let me tell you, don’t listen to Yingying saying she’s busy with work or that now isn’t a suitable time to have kids. Those are all excuses. Once a woman marries, she should have children. Human desires are endless. With the accomplishments you’ve achieved now, you’ll feel there are higher achievements waiting for you. When you finally realize that one day, you’ll be older. Even if you can still have kids, by the time they’re a bit older, you’ll be too old to have the energy to take care of them. So, you should work hard now, understand?"
Xu Shanshan gave her mother a thumbs up and said, "Mom, this is the first time I’ve heard you say something so profound."
Xu Yingying’s mother glared and said, "Don’t think I’m just nagging; it’s all for your good. As a mother, how could I harm my own daughter?"
Li Yifei humbly said, "Yes, yes, we will work hard."
