Chapter 1563

'A happy day?' Zheng Jie was still confused, not understanding what happy day it was today, but she still bit the bullet and drank this "reunion drink."

After drinking three or four cups of wine, the atmosphere at the table became lively, and the awkward atmosphere relaxed significantly. From the conversation, Zheng Jie finally learned that she had been arranged to work at the Provincial Construction Committee and finally knew why Zhao Desan would say today was a happy day. In her joy, she actually poured a full cup of wine, raised it, and said to Zhao Desan with a flushed face, "Comrade Xiao Zhao, come, you've helped sister-in-law so much, sister-in-law toasts you."

It was the first time Zhao Desan had drunk alone with Zheng Jie. He saw him raise his wine cup, but he said very tenderly, "Sister-in-law, I'll finish mine, you drink as you please, come." As he spoke, he raised his cup to clink with Zheng Jie's, and again, very heartily, tilted his neck and drank it in one gulp.

And Zheng Jie, because it was her first time drinking alone with Zhao Desan, was not to be outdone. She did the same thing, tilted her neck, and drank it in one gulp. The whole action was done in one go, without fear, only after drinking, she suddenly couldn't withstand the spicy stimulation of the alcohol and coughed violently. Seeing this, Zhao Desan hurriedly ignored Zhao Da's presence, stood up and leaned over, patting Zheng Jie's jade back while serving a bowl of soup, "Sister-in-law, drink some soup, drink some soup to suppress it."

The feeling of being choked by wine was truly uncomfortable. Zheng Jie took the soup bowl and drank a mouthful, easing her breath, thinking to herself, *Why did I have to show off? Zhao Desan isn't an outsider to me anyway, aiya! *

Zheng Jie, having eased her breath, knew that the intimate actions between her and Zhao Desan were being watched by her husband Zhao Da, and he must be feeling very uncomfortable. While having to take care of serving dishes to Zhao Desan, this "guest," she also had to take care of Zhao Da's emotions, occasionally serving him a couple of chopsticks of vegetables. Being caught between the two made Zheng Jie feel very uncomfortable.

Zhao Desan's alcohol tolerance naturally didn't need to be said. Before long, the bottle of thirty-yuan Xifeng wine was finished by the three of them. Of course, it was mainly Zhao Desan and Zhao Da who finished it; Zheng Jie only drank a few cups symbolically. Zhao Da saw Zhao Desan's unsatisfied look and knew that his purpose tonight didn't lie here; he certainly hadn't drunk enough. In order to take care of his emotions, he instructed his daughter Nini to get the remaining bottle of wine. Zheng Jie wanted to say something, but seeing Zhao Desan, who hadn't had enough, she stopped herself. Zhao Desan naturally didn't stop her, but laughed, "Good, good, it seems Brother Zhao hasn't had enough tonight, so I'll drink to my heart's content with you, Brother Zhao. It's best to get drunk and stop, haha..."

When his daughter went to get the wine, Zhao Da said he wanted to go to the bathroom. Zhao Desan said, "Brother Zhao, I'll push you there."

Zhao Da immediately waved his hand and said, "No, no, you sit down and eat some vegetables first." As he spoke, he drove his wheelchair into the bathroom.

Seeing Zhao Da enter the bathroom, Zheng Jie, who had been silent, poked Zhao Desan's waist with her hand and asked in a low, stern voice, "Comrade Xiao Zhao, what exactly do you want to do?"

"Sister-in-law, you tell me, what else could we do? Is there anything we can't do?" Zhao Desan's answer made Zheng Jie even more lost. Before she could ask anything, Zhao Desan, emboldened by the alcohol, suddenly hugged her into his arms and kissed her face fiercely.

This scene was seen by Nini, who was bringing the wine. She smiled and said, "Mom, Uncle is kissing you, so shameful, so shameful."

The two then realized that there was such a little person present whom they had ignored. Zhao Desan stuck out his tongue at Zheng Jie in extreme embarrassment, while Zheng Jie's face instantly flushed with a fiery glow. She looked toward the bathroom and scolded Nini in a low voice, "Don't talk nonsense!"

Zhao Desan also hurriedly took a piece of fish and put it into Nini's plate, saying, "Nini, eat your vegetables quickly. Look at all the delicious food Mom made today, eat more."

Nini was truly smart and sensible. Her face bloomed with an innocent and carefree smile, and she didn't mention what she had just seen, but said very sensibly, "Uncle, you eat too."

"Uncle is eating, Uncle is eating, let's all eat." Zhao Desan finally breathed a sigh of relief. As he spoke, he took a piece of fish and put it into his mouth to savor it slowly. He had been busy drinking with Zhao Da, and this was the first time he had tasted Zheng Jie's craftsmanship so slowly. Only then did he feel that Zheng Jie's craftsmanship was truly extraordinary—the fish was juicy and tender, smooth and fragrant, and the taste was truly great. Zhao Desan was full of praise while eating, making Zheng Jie feel useful in her heart while also feeling a bit embarrassed.

Just at this moment, Zhao Da came out of the bathroom in his wheelchair. Seeing that Nini had already brought the wine bottle, Zhao Da handed the wine bottle to Zheng Jie and said, "Come, wife, hurry up and open it. I'm going to drink to my heart's content with Comrade Xiao Zhao today!"
