Chapter 294 Drinking
Tang Qiyue considered many possibilities, but she never imagined that Zhan Chunying's enthusiasm was due to something like that in bed.

She was speechless.

Zhan Chunying chuckled and said, "Second sister-in-law, that expression of yours was really too much!"

Tang Qiyue twitched the corners of her mouth, truly unsure what expression to make.

Fortunately, Zhan Chunying was just teasing her.

“You have a good relationship with your second brother, and more importantly, you know medicine. Your second brother will respect you. But even so, do you think you can get a full night’s sleep every night when your second brother is home?”

Zhan Chunying wasn't afraid of being overheard, since they were all women anyway.

With the added influence of alcohol, they became quite bold in their speech.

Tang Qiyue blushed.
After she finished speaking, she saw that Tang Qiyue's expression had changed, so she hurriedly explained, "Sister, don't overthink it. I'm not complaining about Tang Xiuyuan. He's a weak scholar who can't lift a finger. I didn't mean to look down on him!"

Tang Qiyue: ...

Although Zhan Chunying was unmarried, she had been around women for many years and had naturally heard all sorts of risqué talk. She immediately clicked her tongue and said, "I've heard quite a few aunties say it, you know..."

Tang Qiyue: ...

Is it really necessary to discuss such a sensitive topic?
She interrupted their conversation: "Aren't you focusing on the wrong thing? Marital life is one thing, but don't you care about other aspects?"

Fortunately, the two cooperated and managed to steer the conversation to other topics.

"Of course, there's another reason. After I marry Bai Xu, I'll be your sister-in-law, and I'm happy!"

Tang Qiyue: ...

Zhan Chunying's rebellious attitude is really annoying.

Fortunately, Tang Qiyue didn't care much.

She could understand. After all, she had always felt suppressed, and now that she could suddenly become her sister-in-law, it was a feeling that made her adrenaline surge.

"Besides, Bai Xu is with me, and he promised me that I won't have to worry too much in the future. Uncle Wang and your mother won't interfere in our affairs. We can just close the door and live our own little lives. And I can still take care of those three brats!"

This is what Zhan Chunying cares about most.

She has limited abilities.

She's not very good at working outside, so it's better for her to stay home and take care of the children. Besides, Tang Qiyue and Zhan Zeye won't let her work for free.

The allowance I gave her this month was much more than she would have earned working outside.

She has no ambition and doesn't want to pursue a career; she just enjoys a peaceful and contented life.

Most importantly, Zhan Chunying understood very well that with the help of her second brother's family, her future would not be bad.

Tang Qiyue felt helpless.

Now that he knew Zhan Chunying's thoughts, he didn't try to persuade her otherwise.

She has a life to live, and as her sister-in-law, she naturally deserves respect.

When do you plan to get married?

Tang Qiyue still wanted to ask whether it was a wedding or if there were some things to prepare.

Zhan Chunying waved her hand and said, "Bai Xu will go back and submit the application. Once it's approved, we'll get the marriage certificate. Besides, we've discussed it and think that having a wedding is too much trouble, so we won't have one. We'll just move our things over there and that will be considered a wedding!"

What she fears most is trouble.

There weren't any relatives or friends on the island who needed to make things lively, and Bai Xu was someone who hated trouble.

There are few relatives on either side, but they are all friends.

Friends can treat you to a meal, but there's no need to make things difficult for yourself.

"How can that be? Your older brothers will definitely disagree!"

Tang Qiyue reminded Zhan Chunying that she could disregard it, but who was Zhan Zeye? Zhan's older brother was also a man of pride. With both of her older brothers on the island, how could he possibly prevent Zhan Chunying from having a wedding?
Zhan Chunying waved her hand: "I'll have my mother tell them to just give me a dowry, don't bother with a wedding, we don't want to be tormented!" Weddings are mostly torture for the newlyweds, and they don't value the sense of ceremony, so they don't need it.

Tang Qiyue remained silent.

Everyone has their own ideas, what can she do?

Hopefully Zhan Zeye won't lose his temper.

Tang Qiyue was fine after drinking, but Zhan Chunying became overly agitated.

Having heard about Bai Xu and Zhan Chunying's affair, Tang Xiuyuan was furious when he returned from the research institute today and saw three women drinking at home.

"Sis, how dare you drink alcohol? Aren't you afraid your husband will punish you?"

Tang Xiuyuan grabbed Tang Qiyue and handed her over to Zhan Zeye, who had followed him. As for Zhan Chunying, who was a little unsteady on her feet, Tang Xiuyuan wouldn't touch her.

Tang Qiyue patted Zhan Zeye's arm: "Chunying has drunk too much, carry her back!"

Zhan Zeye would naturally not refuse his own younger sister.

Tang Xiuyuan pursed his lips, about to say something, when Zheng Hongjuan pulled him back.

Just kidding, the family didn't say anything, so why is he giving orders?

On the way back, Zhan Chunying had fallen asleep because she had been drinking, so Tang Qiyue told Zhan Zeye about Zhan Chunying and Bai Xu.

Zhan Zeye was also angry when he heard that there would be no wedding, but Tang Qiyue reminded her: "Marriage is a matter between two people. You can offer suggestions, but you can't control them!"

Back when Zhan Zeyi and Tang Qiyue got married, she actually carried a rooster while bowing to the altar. The ceremony was there, but there was nothing to be happy about.

Zhan Zeye felt a little guilty after being rebuked by Tang Qiyue.

Given the circumstances at the time, there was really nothing more he could do.

Tang Qiyue understood, but she could also understand Zhan Chunying. She guessed that her wedding with Zhan Zeye had left some psychological trauma on Zhan Chunying.

"I'll go talk to my older brother tomorrow!"

Since their younger sister is getting married, they will definitely help prepare her dowry.

Tang Qiyue did not object.

"Chunying has been helping us a lot. We'll cover the majority of the dowry. Let our eldest brother decide how much to give, don't make things too difficult for him!"

Although Zhan's mother had been saving up a dowry for Zhan Chunying over the years, the amount she had prepared was limited, given the circumstances.

Zhan Zeye was clearly very happy with Tang Qiyue's arrangement.

No one dislikes having their family members cherished.

They talked about Zhan Chunying's marriage all the way home. When they arrived, all three sons were already in bed. Zhan's mother smelled the alcohol on Tang Qiyue and Zhan Chunying. Although she disapproved of them drinking, she didn't say anything.

She looked at her daughter sleeping in bed and felt a headache coming on.

Zhan Zeye needed to keep an eye on Tang Qiyue as she washed up, so he didn't spend much time chatting with his mother.

On this day, it's estimated that only Zhan's mother couldn't sleep well.

The next day, at a certain time, Zhan Zeye went to the noodle shop to talk to his mother about Zhan Chunying's marriage. His mother didn't react much; she only said, "You don't need to worry about the dowry!"

But Zhan Zeye said, "After Chunying gets married, she'll have to help take care of three brats, so it's only right that I contribute!"

Zhan's mother was unaware of the agreement between Zhan Chunying and Bai Xu, so naturally she did not object.

"Then let Chunying get pregnant and we'll tell her to mind her own business less!"

Zhan's mother is still hoping to hold her grandson.

Standing behind her, Zhan Chunying grinned, "She had no intention of having children."
