"You know me, Mr. Xia! This cup is dedicated to you."

Tong Jie laughed, touched Xia Jian again, and then gave up.

Xiao Xiao on the side had a slight smile on her face, and she was busy pouring wine for Tong Jie and Xia Jian.

As the saying goes, "A thousand cups of wine with a close friend is too little, but a half-sentence of words without speculation is too much."

Tong Jie and Xia Jian should be old acquaintances. They worked hard in Pingyang Town for many years. In the end, Xia Jian couldn't stand the officialdom and had no choice but to leave. Otherwise, they might still be colleagues now.

As the bottle of liquor was finished, Tong Jie became more talkative.

She first recalled the past, then talked about the present, and finally just thought about the future. Xiao Xiao beside her was smiling from ear to ear.

Xia Jian also saw that Tong Jie was rarely so happy, so he couldn't bear to disturb her, so he chatted and laughed loudly with Tong Jie. When he recalled that era, Tong Jie couldn't help but have tears in his eyes.

As he spoke, Tong Jie climbed onto the table.

Finally, with the joint efforts of Xiao Xiao and Xia Jian, they got Tong Jie to the bed.

In fact, Xia Jian is almost there. If he drinks two more drinks, he will definitely fall down.

Fortunately, Xiao Xiao controlled the situation and she didn't drink much.

Xia Jian struggled to return to his room. He fell on the bed and fell asleep without taking off his clothes.

After an unknown amount of time, he felt someone taking off his clothes. When he opened his eyes, he realized that the person was Xiao Xiao.

Under the influence of alcohol, Xia Jian turned over and the two of them fell on the bed.

This night, they made a bit of noise.

When Xia Jian got up the next day and went downstairs, Tong Jie was already sitting in the living room.

"I'm sorry! Did I lose my temper last night?"

Tong Jie said with an apologetic look.

Xiao Xiao hurriedly smiled and said: "No, Mayor Tong has a good drinking habit. After getting drunk, he just sleeps quietly and doesn't fight or make trouble."

"That's good!"

Tong Jie said and smiled happily.

Soon, my mother's breakfast was ready, and the family gathered around the table to eat.

The relationship between the three children and Xiao Xiao was handled very well, and they were willing to listen to Xiao Xiao's words, which made Tong Jie on the side very envious.

After breakfast, Tong Jie stood up and said goodbye. She said she was going back to her hometown.

Xia Jian remembered that Tong Jie's parents passed away early, and she grew up with her brother and sister-in-law, so to some extent, she still didn't like going back to her hometown.

After seeing Tong Jie off, Xia Jian and Xiao Xiao were not in a hurry to leave. They took their children and took a long swim in Xichuan River all morning. It wasn't until Xia Zecheng called that they took the children back home.

The three children played like crazy, all of them blushed, they were having so much fun.

During lunch, Xia Jian smiled and said to his father: "Dad! The three of them should exercise well. When you are free, take them out more often. It is best to drive them crazy in the fields."

"No, when Teacher Xu was here, she was very careful with her children. Except for this yard, they were not allowed to go anywhere, let alone the outdoors."

"He said that these three guys were born well and were not wallowing in the dirt."

Xia Zecheng said and laughed happily again.

After dinner, the three children clamored to go out to play again, but Sun Yuejuan said no, they had to let them take a nap first.

But the old man was right. At first, none of them wanted to, but not long after they fell asleep, they all slept soundly.

"Let me know when you are going to leave, and I will have an idea in mind."

Sun Yuejuan looked at her son and asked with a smile.

Xia Jian let out a long breath and said, "We're leaving. Can you take care of these three guys? And cook."

"Yes! The children are older, and they are quite obedient. Your dad will watch them for a while, and my food will be ready."

Sun Yuejuan said and smiled happily again.

For the sake of his family and his children, Xia Jian and Xiao Xiao stayed at home for another day, which made Sun Yuejuan and his wife feel uneasy. In their words, Xia Jian had never stayed at home for such a long time since he went to work.

On the morning of the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, after breakfast, Xiao Xiao pulled Xia Jian aside and said, "I'm going to go first. If something happens in the unit, I can take care of it. Don't be anxious this time. Wait until the first month."

Come back to work on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year."

"You're right, helping take care of the children is a good thing for both adults and children."

After hearing what Xiao Xiao said, Xia Jian didn't say anything more. He sent Xiao Xiao out of the house, and then watched Xiao Xiao drive away before returning to his room.

Xia Jian temporarily put down his work. He helped his parents take care of their children every day. When the children went to bed at night, he started to wash their clothes.

His purpose in doing this is firstly to fulfill his responsibilities as a father, and secondly to reduce the burden on his parents.

My parents are getting older and are different from before.

This day was the sixth day of the first lunar month. Someone in the village was marrying their daughter. Sun Yuejuan and Xia Zecheng had already taken their three children to a feast, leaving Xia Jian alone in the family.

With nothing to do, he moved a chair and sat in the yard to bask in the sun. Just as he was enjoying the sun with half-closed eyes, suddenly the closed door was pushed open, and then a figure flashed, and he saw

Ruan Lingna's husband walked in.

Xia Jian felt very uncomfortable when he saw this person. Although he and Ruan Lingna were clean and clear and had a clear conscience, after all, something like that happened that day.

"What are you here for?"

Xia Jian said coldly and stood up.

Ruan Lingna's husband smiled coldly and said, "I must have something to come to you for."

Xia Jian looked down upon this kind of man very much, but he had already arrived at his home, so he had no choice but to lead him into the living room.

Although he felt very unhappy, Xia Jian still made a cup of tea for this guy.

This guy was very generous. He kept eating the fruits on the coffee table, and then said with a sneer: "Mr.

"If you have something to say, please leave if you have nothing else to do. I don't have time to talk nonsense with you."

Xia Jian had a cold look on his face.

Ruan Lingna's husband then put away his playful look, and then said seriously: "Ruan Lingna wants to divorce me, and this matter has something to do with you."

When Xia Jian heard this, he couldn't help but frown. He was a little shocked, but he still said calmly: "This is a matter between you and your husband. What does it have to do with me."

"Hmph! Don't say it so nicely. Ruan Lingna divorced me just because of you."

When Ruan Lingna's husband said this, there was a terrible look on his face.

Xia Jian thought for a moment and said, "As a man, you should know who your wife is like best."

"Ruan Lingna and I are colleagues. We have only met a few times in more than a year. Other than that, we have no contact at all. So what you said is all nonsense."

"In addition, I can tell you very responsibly that even if Ruan Lingna divorces you, I will not marry her."
