“The snow is getting heavier and heavier, and it’s hard to drive. I walked back.”
After Brother Cheng entered the house, he began to take off his thick coat. The heating inside the house was like a world of ice and fire compared with the outside.
“Brother, you are back.”
Su Teng came over.
“Auntie has washed the vegetables and prepared the hot pot soup base, and is waiting for you to come back to eat hot pot.”
Su Teng smiled, and when he saw Brother Cheng following him in, he smiled again, “Brother, you’re back too, come in quickly, it’s too cold outside.”
Brother Cheng followed him into the house, and Su Teng closed the door.
“Dad hasn’t come back yet?”
Brother Cheng asked.
Like his elder brother, he took off his thick coat after entering the house.
Su Teng took the coat he took off from his second brother and replied, “Uncle Cheng won’t be back for dinner tonight.”
“Oh, eh, Su Teng, you came back earlier than us tonight. Where is Cheng Qin? Why don’t you see her? Doesn’t she usually come back with you?”
Brother Cheng doesn’t know yet about Su Teng’s confession to Cheng Qin.
Brother Cheng didn’t tell him that he happened to not be in the martial arts gym just now.
Before Su Teng could answer, Cheng Qin’s voice came from the stairs.
“It’s time to eat.”
Cheng’s mother shouted in the kitchen.
Everyone immediately went into the kitchen, scrambling, and brought out the ingredients that Cheng’s mother had prepared for the hot pot.
Except for the absence of Director Cheng, everyone sat together and ate steaming hot pot.
Brother Cheng also brought his father’s collection of famous wine and four small wine glasses, and asked his mother: “Mom, we want to drink some tonight, okay?”
“If you don’t plan to go out tonight, you are allowed to have a small drink each, but no more.”
If you drink too much and get drunk, it will affect your ability to go to work tomorrow.
Brother Cheng said, “Okay, let’s have a small drink.”
It’s better to have a small drink than not to be able to take a sip.
