In Anping, because Anna invited Ma Shaolong to come home for dinner, Anna used her afternoon time to prepare a table of meals.
When Ma Shaolong knocked on Anping's door with anxiety, Anping just smiled at him.
Ma Shaolong had already made plans to deal with the Hongmen Banquet.
In Ma Shaolong's opinion, the smile in Anping's eyes was the most deadly.
Ma Shaolong sat nervously on the sofa. Anping looked like a good family man at this moment. He was carrying his son in a sling and stood beside Mi Li and Anna making dumplings at the dinner table. Ma Shaolong was very suspicious.
This boss who has been cold and cold since childhood seems to have another side at home.
"Brother, do you need my help?"
Ma Shaolong was a little reserved and spoke every word so carefully.
"You are a guest, just sit down."
Anping made a direct statement, which made Anna on the side pout in displeasure.
Who said he was an outsider? She would have to marry Ma Shaolong in the future.
"All right."
Ma Shaolong could not sit still, so he had to sit quietly and watch TV.
"Nana, stop it. Go talk to Ma Shaolong for a while and help your brother put the child down. I'm not used to how diligent he is today."
Mi Li complained directly that Anping seemed to be too diligent today.
"Okay, sister-in-law."
Of course Anna was happy. An An was cute and well-behaved, so she was naturally willing to sit next to Ma Shaolong and take care of the child while accompanying him.
Mi Li glanced at the dumplings made by Anna. Thank God, he was gone. If he hadn't left, the dumplings would have been steamed and eaten in the end.
Mi Li said this in her heart, and Anna would open her mouth. If she really got together with Ma Shaolong in the future, she would really be worried about Ma Shaolong.
The couple wrapped the dumplings, and Mi Li went to the kitchen.
She has already prepared the cold dishes and so on, and the only thing left is the hot dishes.
After a while, your parents will come over and you can start eating.
With Mi Li thinking this, she planned to start cooking hot dishes. Mi's father and mother came with big and small bags in their hands.
Ma Shaolong usually took care of their business. Mi's father naturally knew Ma Shaolong and greeted Ma Shaolong cordially as soon as he walked in. This made Ma Shaolong's nervous mind feel at ease a lot.
Mi's father drove Mi Li out of the kitchen, rolled up his sleeves, put on an apron, and started cooking.
Mi's mother held the child, and Anna suggested playing a few cards before dinner, and Anping agreed.
At the beginning of the card game, Anping seemed to be deliberately targeting Ma Shaolong, and Ma Shaolong lost everything.
Anping didn't change his expression, Anna and Mi Li also noticed something. When the dinner started, Ma Shaolong's face was covered with scraps of paper.
Anna was unhappy at first, but she was still very happy in the end.
In any case, it was not easy for his brother to raise him so big. He must have wanted to solve the problem when he invited Ma Shaolong to his home today.
Perhaps, he was testing Ma Shaolong?
Anna could only think of so much. No matter how Anping targeted Ma Shaolong when playing cards, Anna kept reminding herself to stay calm in her heart.
At the beginning of the meal, Mi's father was very polite and served Ma Shaolong some food, while Anna also blatantly served Ma Shaolong some food.
Ma Shaolong felt that he was an ant struggling to survive in the cracks, and it was very difficult to survive.
"Xiao Ma, if you have nothing to do, come to my store. Thanks to you for taking care of my business this year."
Mi's father is a casual and rough man. He doesn't care about some miscellaneous things. At this moment, he thinks that it is a God-given fate for us to sit at the table to eat together.
"Thank you, Uncle Mi."
Ma Shaolong picked up the bowl with both hands and took the food from Mi's father's chopsticks.
"Dad, he is going to the south after the Chinese New Year.
The boss is not young anymore, he is in his early thirties. If he continues to hang out with me, he will not be able to get a wife in the future, so let him go back to the south."
Anping's casual but serious words gave Ma Shaolong a slap in the hand holding the chopsticks.
When was this arranged?
How come he doesn't know?
Ma Shaolong glanced at Anna aside with confusion. A trace of anxiety and panic flashed in Anna's eyes, and her round eyes were suddenly surrounded by mist.
My brother really wants to drive Ma Shaolong away.
"Boss...I..."
Just as Ma Shaolong was about to explain, he saw Mi's father smiling heartily.
"Why let him go?
There are many good girls in Yang County, so as long as he sees the right girl, wouldn't it be enough to marry her home?"
Mi Mu also said that marriage is that simple when you meet the right person.
Anping didn't raise his head, just picking vegetables and eating dumplings.
"I'm thinking that he doesn't like girls from Yang County. He's been here with me for two years and he's still single. I feel bad about it, so I might as well let him go back to the south."
After Anping finished speaking, he picked up the liquor at hand and stretched it towards Ma Shaolong. Ma Shaolong understood and picked up the liquor at hand, clinked glasses with Anping and drank it neatly.
An unnoticed smile flashed across Anping's lips, then he picked up the wine bottle and added some wine to Ma Shaolong.
"Boss, I have something I want to tell you."
Ma Shaolong looked at Anping seriously and calmly.
"oh?"
Anping raised his eyes, seeming to be very interested in what Ma Shaolong was going to say next.
"I have someone I like. We are already together and have decided to grow old together for the rest of our lives. I can't let her down."
Anping said affirmatively. Anna on the side listened to Ma Shaolong's words, pursed her lips, and her eyes suddenly became moist.
"Yeah?
Who is it?"
Anping continued to pick up food, and Anna pursed her lips. Wasn't this asking questions knowingly?
Mi Li realized that something was wrong with the atmosphere, put his hand under the table and gently pulled An Ping's clothes.
"Anna."
Ma Shaolong's eyes stared at Anping without fear. Anping did not stop what he was doing and kept picking up the food. After a few seconds, his scrutinizing eyes fell on Anna.
"Is what he said true?
You?
What attitude?"
Anna was a little scared, after all, she was her brother, and she was the one she liked.
Every time someone asks a question, they don't know it at all. This kind of question is like your mother and your wife falling into the water together. Who do you save first? The question is the same.
Anna's shoulders hunched down, as if she had done something wrong.
Her brother is a soft-spoken brother, and if he is stubborn, he will definitely die miserably.
Anna nodded and replied in a low voice: "I want to be with him. Brother, please don't send him back to the south, okay?"
Anna prayed, but Anping didn't respond much and was still picking up vegetables to eat.
Ma Shaolong knew that the quieter Anping became, it actually showed that his mood was really bad.
Ma Shaolong didn't want to hit the gun, but he still wanted to tell Anping something.
After all, even if he disagrees, he still wants to be with Anna.
