Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

"Dad, don't be angry; they have something urgent to take care of and left early, so they won't be having lunch with us."

Wang Erhai smiled dryly, patiently comforting Wang Zhanggen.

He didn't want to make a scene in someone else's restaurant; otherwise, if outsiders saw it, how embarrassing would that be?

So he hurriedly urged Liu Mei Qi:

"Hurry up and close the door."

Liu Mei Qi didn't quibble with Wang Erhai at this moment; she nodded quickly and did as told, going to close the private room door.

Wang Zhanggen had a blackened, ugly face:

"They have something to do and won't eat together, and they didn't even give us a heads-up beforehand. In their eyes, do they still have me, their father, at all?"

Wang Zhanggen got angrier the more he spoke, and finally shifted the blame onto Du Xiaojuan:

"I think Dashan was corrupted by that egg-laying chicken; he wasn't like this before!"

What he said got uglier and uglier.

Wang Xiaohua really couldn't listen anymore:

"Can you stop saying that? Do we have to spell it out for you? Eldest Brother and Eldest Sister-in-law not eating together—isn't it all because of your stinking mouth!"

Wang Zhanggen glared viciously at Wang Xiaohua.

"Have your wings hardened too?"

Wang Xiaohua didn't want to indulge him and directly confronted him:

"My wings hardened long ago, don't you know? You keep asking this question back and forth; since you're old and confused, don't come out here to mess with everyone!"

As soon as Wang Xiaohua said this, Wang Zhanggen was furious to the point of near death.

His whole body trembled.

Li Xiulan hurriedly smoothed things over:

"Alright, alright, stop talking!"

But Wang Xiaohua wanted to keep talking:

"Second Brother and I just went to a fortune teller to get a divination; do you know what the fortune teller said about Eldest Brother and Eldest Sister-in-law having wealth without children?"

Wang Xiaohua gave Wang Erhai a look; Wang Erhai was confused at first because they had never actually gone to a fortune teller, but he quickly caught on, understood tacitly, and hurriedly echoed:

"Right, we just went to a fortune teller to get a divination; what the fortune teller said was really unpleasant!"

"How did the fortune teller say it?" Wang Zhanggen had a blackened face, looking at Wang Erhai.

Wang Erhai laughed dryly; who knew what the fortune teller said, so he hurriedly said to Wang Xiaohua:

"Third Brother, you tell our father how the fortune teller said it? Anyway, I can't bring myself to say those words!"

Wang Xiaohua then said:

"The fortune teller said that the reason Eldest Brother and Eldest Sister-in-law have wealth without children is entirely because of you, this old thing, causing trouble! Eldest Sister-in-law knows this reason, but she would rather be misunderstood by you than say a word against you, and you still have the nerve to talk nonsense here!"

Hearing this, Wang Zhanggen trembled immediately, his face full of disbelief:

"Impossible, how is this possible? She doesn't lay eggs; what does that have to do with me?"

Wang Xiaohua then went along with it:

"If you don't believe me, ask Wu Banxian another day; Wu Banxian's fortune telling is so accurate; you should believe what he says, right!"

Wang Zhanggen's face turned iron-black; seeing Wang Xiaohua speak so firmly, his heart sank:

"Fine, I'll go ask Wu Banxian myself another day! I don't believe Du Xiaojuan not being able to have children has anything to do with me!"

Although Wang Zhanggen still talked tough, he had no confidence in his heart.

After all, some things are very mysterious and cannot be explained in just a few words.

Moreover, Wang Xiaohua spoke so emphatically that he mistakenly thought Wang Xiaohua had really gone to ask a fortune teller.

Liu Mei Qi on the side looked confused, nudged Wang Erhai, and asked in a low voice:

"What on earth is going on?"

Wang Erhai smiled dryly and answered in a low voice:

"Who knows what's going on."

He also didn't know what trick Wang Xiaohua was playing.

Could it be that Wu Banxian would help Wang Xiaohua cover up the lie?

That's not very likely!

But given the current situation, if they wanted to resolve the conflict, they could only believe Wang Xiaohua.

After all, Wang Xiaohua had the highest IQ among them.

If even Wang Xiaohua couldn't resolve this conflict, then Du Xiaojuan and Wang Zhanggen would probably truly never speak to each other again for the rest of their lives.

This kind of situation was obviously something no one wanted to see.

"Dad, Mom, let's not talk about those unpleasant things; hurry up and order. Here's the menu; order whatever you want to eat!"

Wang Erhai passed the menu over.

Li Xiulan picked it up and took a look, frowning involuntarily:

"It's so expensive."

"This is a big restaurant; the food they make tastes good, so it's normal for it to be expensive!"

Wang Erhai answered thus.

Liu Mei Qi said instead:

"Mom, just order freely, this meal Erhai and I are treating, you and Dad don't need to pay a cent!"

Li Xiulan didn't know what to order, so she handed the menu to Wang Zhanggen:

"You order, I'm not very good at ordering."

Wang Zhanggen handed the menu back to Wang Erhai:

"You order, after Wang Dashan and Du Xiaojuan made such a scene, I have no appetite!"

Wang Erhai took the menu, full of speechlessness.

He really wanted to retort: Are you sure it's not you yourself making a scene?

But he still held back and didn't say what was in his heart.

He just handed the menu to Wang Xiaohua:

"Third Brother, how about you order?"

Wang Xiaohua handed the menu back to Liu Mei Qi:

"Second Sister-in-law, you order, I'm not very good at ordering dishes either."

In the end it was still Wang Erhai and Liu Mei Qi who ordered the dishes.

Liu Mei Qi ordered several dishes, all with pepper, what she herself liked to eat.

Wang Erhai reminded in a low voice:

"My parents don't eat spicy, order some non-spicy ones."

Liu Mei Qi said to Wang Erhai:

"Then you order a few more."

"Can we finish ordering so much?" Wang Erhai muttered.

Liu Mei Qi secretly pinched the meat on his waist once, he stopped speaking, and hurriedly ordered a few more dishes without pepper.

Soon, the dishes came up.

A whole table of delicious food.

Liu Mei Qi ate heartily, eating very happily.

Wang Erhai also ate quite happily.

Wang Xiaohua was instead somewhat absent-minded, because he was thinking about how to resolve the conflict between Eldest Sister-in-law and Wang Zhanggen; just now he had deliberately told a lie, saying he had asked a fortune teller to do fortune telling, that Eldest Sister-in-law and Eldest Brother having wealth without children was because of Wang Zhanggen, that was just throwing out a lure; to follow this lure, arrange the layout, and solve the problem properly, everything had to be planned in advance.

If everything wasn't planned in advance, when Wang Zhanggen went to ask the god, that Half-Immortal Wu would never speak to Wang Zhanggen according to his wishes.

Seeing Wang Zhanggen's worried look, the more he thought about it the more wrong it seemed, the more he thought about it the more he felt he had to hurry back and find Half-Immortal Wu to ask clearly, otherwise he wouldn't feel at ease.

Li Xiulan was instead concerned about the price of this table of good dishes:

"Erhai, so many dishes, how much money will it cost?"

Wang Erhai hurriedly said:

"Not much, just several hundred yuan."

Li Xiulan felt the pain in her flesh:

"This isn't much? If we eat at home ourselves, even killing two chickens and buying a fish wouldn't cost a hundred yuan! We can't come out to eat again tonight; we can't just because we earned a little money, be extravagant and wasteful!"

Wang Erhai hurriedly said:

"Mom, rest assured, for the New Year's Eve Dinner tonight I'll personally cook; the food ingredients we've already bought, we definitely won't come out to eat."

Li Xiulan asked at this time:

"Are Dashan and Xiao Juan eating the New Year's Eve Dinner together?"

This question directly stumped Wang Erhai; for a moment he didn't know how to answer.

To directly say they weren't eating together again, he was afraid it would hurt his mother's heart.

But to say they were eating together, when the time came and Eldest Brother and Eldest Sister-in-law weren't seen at the New Year's Eve Dinner, that would be impossible to explain.
