The Valiant Farmgirl's Blackhearted Husband Wants a Hug

113 Chapter 113: Father-in-Law and Son-in-Law Relationship

“Sister-in-law, is it time to eat?” Song Ye asked his sister-in-law happily.

“Yes! You two have been studying hard, so I’m here to ask you two to go out for lunch!” Qin Xiaoyao held onto Song Ye’s tiny hand and gazed at the little one with adoration.

Then, she turned around and looked up, only to lock eyes with Song Que’s deep, dark eyes.

Not surprisingly, she was mesmerized.

Song Que was very pleased with Qin Xiaoyao’s reaction, and his eyes finally flickered.

“Come and help me up,” he said.

Qin Xiaoyao quickly came back to her senses and released Song Ye to go help Song Que up.

When the little child saw this, his tiny face fell, and he could not help but glare at his big brother in annoyance.

Hmph! He was snatching his sister-in-law away!

He didn’t know if it was an illusion, but when Song Ye saw his big brother get up, the latter actually gave him a look of provocation.

Yup, it must be an illusion. Surely Big Brother didn’t look at him just now…

Qin Xiaoyao wasn’t aware of any of this. She helped Song Que out of the room, and they walked towards the hall.

As soon as they arrived, the originally lively hall became quiet all of a sudden.

Qin Dazhuang and his sons, who had been talking and laughing loudly a moment ago, suddenly shut their mouths in unison.

“The last two dishes are here!” At this moment, Madam Liu brought Song Yun along with the last two dishes.

“Don’t just stand there. Sit down and eat!” Qin Xiaoyao chimed in.

Only then did everyone take their seats.

Qin Xiaoyao noticed that her father and two brothers had been acting oddly ever since her attractive husband arrived. She could roughly guess what was going on.

After all, the three of them had bullied her attractive husband in the past to force him to marry Qin Xiaoyao’s predecessor.

In addition, because of the matter of loaning the silver, they looked down on Song Que a lot.

Now that her attractive husband had bought this courtyard dwelling, his status was elevated now.

It would be strange if they didn’t feel awkward sitting with him at the same table.

“This table of dishes today is really amazing! Mother and Yun’er, it has been hard on you two!” Qin Xiaoyao said with a smile.

Then, she stood up and poured wine for everyone.

“Hehe! It’s just a few simple dishes. What’s so hard about them?” Madam Liu replied happily.

She then said to her daughter-in-law, “You should pour more for your father and two brothers!”

“I know, Mother!” Qin Xiaoyao agreed with a smile.

“Here, Father, Big Brother, Second Brother. I’ll pour more for you guys. You guys should have a drink with my husband later!” Then, she poured wine for the Qin family’s father and sons.

When the three of them heard this, they all replied in the affirmative.

However, they only glanced at Song Que for an instant and did not dare to look at him for long.

When Song Que heard this, he did not reject the proposal.

Instead, he pushed his wine bowl forward, signaling to Qin Xiaoyao to pour him some wine.

Qin Xiaoyao naturally noticed Song Que’s actions and knew that Song Que was not against the idea. She was overjoyed.

After pouring wine for the Qin family’s father and sons, she poured wine for Song Que.

Of course, she was careful not to pour too much for Song Que when filling his bowl.

This was because, in the memories of her predecessor, she had never seen her attractive husband drink.

Furthermore, her attractive husband’s legs had not healed completely yet, so she felt that it was better for him not to drink so much.

As for the drinking companion, she was still available, wasn’t she?

Thinking of this, Qin Xiaoyao poured half a bowl for herself after pouring wine for Song Que.

When he saw this, Song Que’s exquisite brows knitted slightly, but he did not say anything.

“Come! Father, Big Brother, Second Brother! My husband and I will give you a toast. Thank you, Father, for helping us locate a courtyard dwelling and for all the care you’ve given us all this time!” Qin Xiaoyao picked up her bowl of wine and said to the Qin family’s father and sons before glancing at Song Que.

Song Que returned her glance and decided to play along.

“Forget it. If she wanted to take center stage, then let her,” he thought.

That would save him from the awkwardness later when he couldn’t find anything in common to chat about with the in-laws.

“Hey, no need to thank me!” Qin Dazhuang was the first to respond.

“You’re my only daughter. If I don’t help you, who else should I help?”

“That’s right, Sis! Don’t worry! If there’s anything in the future, just go home and tell us! As your Big Brother, I will definitely help!” Qin Dahu added.

“And your second brother too!” Qin Erhu chimed in.

“The same goes for Brother-in-law too!” Then, he realized that something was wrong and turned to look at Song Que.

“Yes, Brother-in-law as well! If there’s anything you need, just let us know!” Qin Dahu also turned around and glanced at Song Que.

“Yeah!” Qin Dazhuang had wanted to say something to Song Que, but the moment he laid eyes on Song Que, he could only utter one word.

“Good. Thank you, Father-in-law, and my two Brothers-in-law.” Seeing this, Song Que also returned the pleasantry.

“Cheers…” Immediately after, he held his wine bowl out.

The Qin family’s father and sons were both caught off guard for a moment.

...

Following that, they all held their bowls out as well. Exercising great control over their strength, they clinked their bowls with Song Que’s.

Even so, the moment the wine bowls collided, they still felt that they had used too much strength and almost knocked Song Que’s wine bowl askew.

Sigh! Indeed, uncouth men like them were not suited to drink with scholars.

Qin Xiaoyao also held her wine bowl out and drank with the others.

After downing a bowl of wine, the atmosphere at the table became much more lively.

After that, Qin Xiaoyao entertained the Qin family’s father and sons. In between, she also entertained Big Girl Li from time to time while taking care of Madam Liu and the two children as well. The atmosphere at the table was very harmonious.

Everyone at the table was smiling except for Song Que.

However, although Song Que did not smile like the others, he was still in a good mood.

He was happy to see his family so happy.

Moreover, today’s dishes indeed tasted good.

After he was full, Song Que sat at the table for a while before taking his leave.

...

After drinking a few more bowls of wine, the Qin family’s father and sons finally had the courage to speak to him.

These three boorish men were really very outspoken. They simply said whatever was on their minds.

They said that they were in the wrong in the past and should not have been so fierce to him, frightening him. They hoped that he would not hold it against them.

They then went on to warn him to treat their daughter and sister well and not to bully her. Otherwise, they would make him regret it.

In short, although the words were a little rough, the meaning was expressed very sincerely.

When Song Que heard that, he couldn’t help but look at that woman several times.

Seeing that she didn’t seem to be pretending, the initially concrete thoughts in his mind began to waver doubtfully.

Could this woman really be Qin Sanya?

Or did she really believe she was Qin Sanya just because she inherited her body?

Forget it. There was no need to dwell obsessively on these things.

The current situation was pretty good. As long as she behaved herself, why should he care so much?

As such, Song Que responded appropriately to the half-apologetic and half-threatening words of the Qin family’s father and sons.

After that, the Qin family’s trio of father and sons became more enthusiastic toward Song Que.

Under the influence of alcohol, they even insisted on drinking with Song Que.

It was only when Qin Xiaoyao came forward to say that her husband could not handle alcohol well that they did not continue to pester Song Que.

In the end, Qin Xiaoyao arranged for Song Yun to help Song Que back to his room.

Only then did Qin Xiaoyao relax and continue to drink with her father and two brothers.

Qin Xiaoyao didn’t mind being laughed at by her father and brothers. She was happy to let them know how much she valued and cared about Song Que.

The meal didn’t end until it was almost 1:30 in the afternoon.

Qin Xiaoyao personally sent the Qin family’s father and sons off.
