I'm back in 1990

Chapter 324: Today, we must teach this wicked disciple a lesson.

Huang Xiaochuan took Lao Yu's family directly to Yu Wei's house. That evening, Yu Wei booked a private room at a restaurant near his house, and the whole family gathered together for a reunion dinner.

During the meal, Yu Wei vividly recounted the events of that day to Lao Yu.

"Dad, do you know what? Someone suddenly called me the other day and asked me to go out and collect some wine."

As Yu Wei spoke, he pointed at Huang Xiaochuan.

The person who delivered the wine said he had asked them to deliver it.

"So I went! But when I got to the roadside, I saw a big truck parked there! I was a little confused. Did they really need such a big truck to deliver just a few bottles of wine?"

"When the driver and the deliveryman lifted the tarpaulin, I was shocked—a whole truckload of Moutai liquor! How could I possibly accept it!"

"I quickly called him, but it turned out he didn't know about it either."

"Later, they probably figured it out. The delivery guy brought me ten cases of wine, and then took the rest away. I don't know where they went."

This was the first time Yu Xiang had heard of this, and she looked at Huang Xiaochuan and asked, "What happened?"

Huang Xiaochuan touched his nose and laughed, "I asked someone to buy me some Moutai, thinking I'd give it to my dad and Uncle Yu for the New Year. I didn't expect them to misunderstand me and buy three tons for me."

"I thought, since I've already bought it, I might as well keep it, so I found a warehouse to store it."

Yu Xiang angrily punched Huang Xiaochuan: "Are you crazy? Do you think we can finish all that wine?"

Huang Xiaochuan patted Yu Xiang's hand to comfort her, saying, "It's okay. The annual production of Moutai is not large, and it's only been a few years! The price has already risen from a dozen yuan to more than two hundred yuan, and it will continue to rise in the future. You won't lose out if you buy it now."

Old Yu firmly stood by his son-in-law, saying, "Xiao Chuan is right, but he bought a bit too much. Don't buy things like this again. Come on, let's have a drink!"

Yu Wei chimed in, "It's alright, it's alright, I'm here. I'll help you drink it."

Yu Xiang rolled her eyes at him: "If you want to drink it, go buy it yourself."

This angered Yu Wei: "You haven't even married him yet, and you're already siding with outsiders."

Zheng Aiying tapped Yu Wei with her chopsticks, annoyed: "Eat your food, you're the one who talks too much."

Huang Xiaochuan pretended not to see it, raised his glass and said, "Uncle Yu, I'd like to toast you."

"Alright, alright, come on! Let's drink!"

Yu Xiang then said to Yu Min and Tang Yuan, "Tomorrow let's go shopping with Mom and buy her some new clothes."

Zheng Aiying waved her hand, saying, "Don't buy me anything, I have clothes to wear."

Tang Yuan laughed and said, "Auntie, we can't listen to you on this matter; we'll all listen to our eldest sister."

Yu Min was thrilled at the mention of shopping for clothes; that was her purpose in coming to Shanghai.

So she advised, "Mom! Let's go shopping first, and we'll see if we buy anything later."

The next day, Mr. and Mrs. Yu asked Yu Wei to drive them to visit Huang Xiaochuan's maternal grandmother. Since they were in Shanghai, they had to pay her a visit; it was a matter of etiquette. Moreover, the two families were relatives, so they had to go.

Before the Spring Festival, my uncle Zeng Jiahua, my second sister Zeng Xia and her husband Huo Miao also came to Shanghai to celebrate the New Year. Suddenly there were many more people in the family, and it was very lively. The happiest person was my grandmother, who loved this kind of atmosphere with her children and grandchildren all around her.

Moreover, it was a four-generation household. According to her, this was how wealthy families used to live. The whole family lived together, and although there were occasional disagreements, it showed that the family was thriving, which was a good omen.

Zeng Xia's belly was getting bigger, and ever since she came to Shanghai, she had been waited on hand and foot, which Huang Xiaochuan couldn't stand anymore.

"Second sister, when you have free time, why don't you climb stairs and walk around more to get some exercise? My Yu Xiang already told you that you need to move around more so you can give birth more easily."

Zeng Xia was comfortably lying on the sofa eating an apple when she heard this, and she stopped eating it.

Feigning a wronged expression, she said, "I just lay down and you're already criticizing me."

"I've climbed the stairs seven or eight times today, okay?"

"You're kidding me! Do you think I didn't see it? I counted for you! Seven or eight times? Seven or eight steps is already an exaggeration. Look how fat you've gotten!"

Seeing that she couldn't get away with it, Zeng Xia simply started to act shamelessly and even went around looking for reinforcements.

"Grandma (or Madam) look at my little brother! He's bullying me!"

Grandma didn't tolerate it either, and slapped Zeng Xia on the bottom.

"Your little brother is doing this for your own good. Look at you now, you're as lazy as a pig. When I was pregnant with your father, I was still working right up until I gave birth."

Zeng Xia argued back then, "That's because conditions were bad back then. Now, we say it's good to have only one child and to promote eugenics."

Grandma said angrily, "I think you're the one who's treating yourself better first."

Huang Xiaochuan asked Huo Miao, "Second brother-in-law, why don't you do anything about her?"

"Your second sister is pregnant, let's give in to her, she's due in less than two months anyway."

Well, it's been two lifetimes and he's still like this. It seems this henpecked husband problem is incurable.

Well, it's been two lifetimes and he's still like this. It seems this henpecked husband problem is incurable.

"If you can't handle it, then I will!"

"Second sister, starting today, I'll accompany you for walks and exercise. No more eating and lying around. What will you do if you can't give birth when it's time to give birth?"

"Why not just have a C-section?"

Huang Xiaochuan slapped his forehead. Hey! I almost forgot, this pregnant woman was originally a nurse.

"No way! Why would you need surgery to give birth? Listen to your younger brother. You're so lazy, even trying to cut corners during childbirth." His aunt couldn't stand it anymore and supported Huang Xiaochuan's decision.

Just then, the eldest sister, Zeng Hong, and her husband, Tang Jianhua, returned from outside pushing a stroller. Seeing the commotion, the eldest sister asked, "What's going on now?"

Huang Xiaochuan picked up Xiao Xuanxuan from the stroller.

"I told my second sister to move around more, but she's incredibly lazy and refuses to move all day long. She said if she can't give birth naturally, she'll have a C-section."

Zeng Hong disagreed upon hearing this: "Why have a C-section! You must give birth naturally. That way, you recover faster. When I gave birth to Xuanxuan, the woman in the next ward had a C-section on the same day as me. When I was discharged, she was still lying in bed, unable to move!"

Apart from Huo Miao, who was henpecked, no one in the family sided with Zeng Xia, which infuriated her.

However, this did not affect her appetite at dinner. Huang Xiaochuan saw her eat most of a chicken and drink a large bowl of soup by herself. And that wasn't all. After dinner, she started eating pork jerky, her mouth never stopping.

On the afternoon of Lunar New Year's Eve, Huang Xiaochuan brought vegetables to Wang Deyi's house.

While busy in the kitchen, Huang Xiaochuan chatted with Wang Deyi: "I asked you to come to my house, but you wouldn't go. If I didn't come, I think you were planning to eat instant noodles for your New Year's Eve dinner."

"I think instant noodles are fine. It doesn't matter what kind of food it is, as long as it fills your stomach!"

Upon hearing this, Huang Xiaochuan immediately felt a mischievous urge.

"Sir, how about I find you a caregiver? I'll find an auntie around fifty years old, with the requirements that she be decent-looking and know how to take care of people."

"I have hands and feet, why do I need a nanny? You're just giving me terrible ideas."

"Please let me finish what I have to say!"

"You must be so lonely all by yourself! We're ostensibly looking for a caregiver, but you should try your best to win her over and get me a master's wife. Don't worry, I'll cover the dowry and everything else, including the wedding banquet. And if you can work harder, you can also find me a junior apprentice, and I'll help you take care of him."

Even with his excellent self-control, Wang Deyi's blood pressure soared to 180 after being angered by Huang Xiaochuan, that unfilial disciple. He searched the room frantically for a suitable weapon, but this unfilial disciple was so tall and strong that using his hands would probably only be enough to tickle him.

Huang Xiaochuan didn't get anything good out of it anyway. The consequence of his sharp tongue was that the old man wanted him to write three journal articles before graduation, or else he could forget about graduating.

However, Huang Xiaochuan had also reached an agreement with Wang Deyi: Wang Deyi would contact the school to avoid arranging an internship for him during his senior year, allowing him to make his own arrangements, and he would guarantee to complete the tasks assigned to him by Wang Deyi before graduation.
