Rebirth in the 60s: A Path to Counterattack-Chapter 92 - 0. Drunk

The women and children at the table can’t drink, but the men at their table have no reservations whatsoever.

After patiently waiting for them to finish chatting, Liu Shouyi, who can’t handle alcohol, picked up the bottle anyway.

After popping the plastic cap off with a raised hand, he started pouring drinks into each cup. The two-ounce green porcelain shot glasses were filled to the brim one by one. Five glasses completely emptied out a bottle, perfectly calculated.

But, here’s the problem: he doesn’t drink much, and when he does, he drinks too much; he’s almost the type to get drunk from just a whiff of alcohol!

Seeing him act like this, not just Su Hongying, but even Liu Shouyi himself thought to stop him.

Otherwise, if they really let him drink to the point of passing out under the table, how embarrassing would it be for the Liu family?

Unfortunately, even before anyone could say a word to stop him, this guy started showing off his oratory skills with drinking poems.

Seeing Ning Jianshe and Lian Hai acting like they’d rather drink themselves into a stupor out of camaraderie, Liu Shouren thought it best to remain silent.

Otherwise, not only would he fail to stop them, he’d get roped into the emotional drinking too.

Looking at the five bottles on the table, Liu Shouren really wanted to tell his naive brother-in-law: Being overly sincere is a problem that needs fixing! Enjoying a drink with two ounces for fun should be enough, why insist on finishing a whole bottle each?

Lianshan glared: It’s definitely not a bottle each! Obviously, it’s you four with a bottle each, and the remaining bottle is for Saozi, Xiao Yue, and our sister-in-law.

Who from the older generation in Northeast China couldn’t handle a couple bowls of booze?

Even women not sipping a few isn’t a common sight.

That’s why Lianshan always thought the second sister-in-law saying the second brother isn’t a strong drinker was an excuse, never considering he truly loved drinking without being able to handle much.

Until this guy had two ounces in his stomach and began singing "The East is Red" totally off-key and out of tune for quite a while, Lianshan finally believed his pure Northeast brother-in-law really couldn’t handle alcohol, and his drunk demeanor varied wildly. After being tugged by the collar and promising to treat Shuzhen well for life and never follow Chen Shimei’s unkind footstep.

Otherwise, both the older brother-in-law and Lianshan would team up against him, ruin his third leg, and find a better match for his sister back home should that happen, Lianshan’s face turned charcoal-like, following his older brother-in-law.

Just as he was thinking to half-forcibly help the person over to the west room to rest and sober up.

Over there, the crying brother Lian Hai suddenly chimed in a howl: "Right, right, second brother is spot on! Saozi is kind-hearted with great character, she’s a good wife hard to find even with a lantern. If older brother doesn’t act right, I’ll help you beat him!"

Brother?

What’s up with brother?

In my heart, no one surpasses Saozi’s life-saving gratitude the size of the sky!"

Though his standing in his brother’s heart dropped a tiny fraction, Lianshan didn’t feel much disappointment.

Showing gratitude is a good quality, and his brother respects and appreciates his own wife nonetheless!

Yeah, his brother is reliable, even when drunk he doesn’t go off course!

However, what happened next proved his comfort came a bit too soon.

Because Lian Hai then mistook brother-in-law Ning Jianshe for him, slapped his shoulder hard, almost causing him, also having drunk quite a bit, to stumble: "Bro, I need to tell you a heartfelt truth, you’re the only person I’d tell!"

It’s just that you’re my real brother...

Heh heh, nothing much, just two words, don’t act!

Don’t learn from that punk Dai Weiguo, not appreciating his luck. Generations of accumulated virtue brought him such a virtuous and fortunate wife, yet he doesn’t live well. Just wait till he regrets crying without resolution.

Ruining home and land, reaching old age as a failure. You better not follow..."

"Right, reaching old age as a failure! Reaching old age as a failure! Look at me, my tolerance is high. Whenever my Xiao Yue gets mad, scratches and pinches me, I stay quiet, don’t fight back, I just play dumb! After some hissing and laughing, she feels sorry and stops hitting, and that’s that..." Finally finding balance to stand, Ning Jianshe blurted this out. freewēbnoveℓ.com

Instantly Saozi, the Liu family’s second sister-in-law, and the little sister-in-law were filled with astonishment, their looks as if seeing a tigress turned Lian Yue’s face crimson.

She tried to hold back but couldn’t, stepped forward and pinched Ning Jianshe’s ear: "Talking nonsense, you must be seriously drunk!"

Once he started, on the verge of holding back, Su Hongying and Qiu Fang hurriedly stepped in with the help of Lianshan and Liu Shouren, stopping their respective family’s drunk troublemakers.

Meanwhile, Shuzhen quickly grabbed some of the mountain pears Lianshan brought back repeatedly from the hills, cut them up and squeezed juice out. Gave them to her older brother, Lianshan, and Lian Yue, instructing them to feed the drunken ones a bowl each to help them sleep it off.

Ordinarily, women and children ate faster than drinking men. Before the brothers had drunk halfway through, the table on the floor had already eaten their fill and cleared.

Now what needed cleaning was the table on the bed.

The leftover dishes and bowls scattered around.

Usually cleaning up’s a habit, and Lianshan, unwilling to tire his wife, settled Shuzhen on a bench to chat with her sisters while he swiftly tidied up.

His diligent, considerate manner made Su Hongying and her sisters feel a pang in their hearts. How come their husbands just know how to get drunk, act foolishly losing face, while someone else is endlessly gentle and attentive pampering their wife?

Thus the saying goes: comparisons can be fatal!

In front of Lianshan, who was a master of wife-pampering, what they originally considered seriously quite decent men, good partners for life, were naturally showing some imperfections.

Having shortcomings means improving!

The great leader said, recognizing and correcting mistakes makes you a good comrade.

Indeed, as wives, it’s their responsibility to encourage their husbands to improve passionately.

After waking up from his drunken slumber, lying horizontally on the west bed of Lian Shan’s house snoring loudly, three drunkards didn’t expect such a significant change upon waking.

You won’t even do XX, you’re lazy to work? Look at your brother-in-law/older brother, then look at yourself again!

All being the same men, how come you can’t learn from your brother-in-law/older brother?

Such hex-like words seemed to accompany this brother trio for the rest of their lives, in the area of wife-pampering, Lianshan became the benchmark they incessantly tried to chase but never surpassed in their lifetime.

Once, even Liu Shouyi, a real brother, nearly resorted to praying for Lianshan to commit some minor misstep, losing his halo of the most wife-loving and best man. Feeling strained from racking his brain for romantic gestures to please his wife, desperately sought methods, yet only received: just passable, still somewhat lacking compared to brother-in-law’s evaluation. Getting schooled with all details of sister and brother-in-law’s romantic history even made the close older brother-in-law have violent thoughts of bagging up this unlucky brother-in-law, right?
