With Lin Youxi's coming on, the mahjong table now truly formed a game between the Mei, Xia and Lin families. The mahjong game between the three families of six was still in full swing. Yu Ling played the role of a waiter on the side, serving tea and water to several fellow mahjong players.
Mei Lijun was originally in high spirits to beat Mei Fang, but now Youxi entered the game, he thought that Youxi was a novice and the future daughter-in-law, so he couldn't be too harsh on her; needless to say, as for his wife, although Lao Xia could beat her up, it would be embarrassing for Yuanyuan. Now he had no place to use his strength, and he became more hesitant in playing cards. It took him a long time to play a card of 50,000.
Lin Youxi saw Mei Lijun's concerns, and after playing an 80,000 card, she smiled and reminded Mei Lijun: "Uncle Mei, you don't have to let me win just because I'm a novice. It would be boring to play mahjong like this. Anyway, if you lose, it's A-Fang's fault. You can play with confidence, and... I will play seriously and won't show you mercy."
After hearing what Lin Youxi said, Mei Lijun breathed a sigh of relief, and then clapped his hands and praised her: "Youxi, you're great! Uncle likes your straightforward personality. Just try your best and don't worry about the elders' face. It's your ability if you can beat Uncle Mei until he cries!"
Xiang Xiaoxia stood aside and said to Mei Lijun, "Don't just talk, draw your cards quickly."
"I know, I know..."
Meilijun said as he drew a card and then played it. "Why is it always these things? Sixty thousand."
As soon as the old father of the Mei family finished speaking, Mei Fang, who had been holding his breath and keeping silent, immediately jumped up excitedly. At the same time, Lin Youxi also decisively and handsomely flipped the mahjong tiles, revealing an extremely beautiful mahjong combination:
"If I don't have a jackpot, I can win seven pairs of colors by myself, 10 points + 15 points + 3 points for a fortune and then double it, 56 points! I won it all in one go!"
Mei Fang was very excited and put her arm around Lin Youxi's shoulders to celebrate with her, as happy as a child.
Compared to being cautious and trying hard to show off, it feels so good to be able to do whatever you want with your genius wife, kill anyone you meet, and let you know who the boss is with just one move.
"Oh, sure, Youxi... How did you figure out my cards?"
Although Meilijun lost the substance, he at least could not lose face. Although he was very unhappy with his silly son showing off in front of his father, he still had to give enough face to his daughter-in-law.
"I saw that you had already played a lot of Wan cards, and you started to discard cards from the middle. I thought you must be waiting for a card. It just so happened that I drew the cards well, all of which were Wanzi cards. I thought it would be better to play Wan directly to win the game. It was pure luck."
Lin Youxi patted Mei Fang as she spoke, "Uncle Mei is just giving in to me. He must have seen that I want the Wanzi card, so don't be so happy."
Mei Fang usually behaves more maturely in front of other people, but in front of his family, he seems a little indulgent, and for a moment he forgets that Xia Xun and Yu Ling are watching him.
After Lin Youxi's reminder, he also realized his own loss of composure and began to pay attention to his own rhythm. After accompanying Lin Youxi to look at a few hands of cards, he patted her shoulder and whispered a few words, and then laughed and said to everyone:
"I'm going to go downstairs and play with Yuanyuan and Xiaoya for a while. Have fun, everyone."
"Um."
After hearing this, Xia Xun's brows seemed to relax a little -
In the first half, Mei Lijun was the one who killed everyone. In the second half, Lin Youxi was also ruthless. In addition, Mei Fang, who was in the previous position, always let others touch the cards, leaving him with nothing to touch. In the end, he couldn't win. So even though Xia Xun didn't make many moves, he still lost the most.
Of course, playing cards is for fun, and losing some money is nothing. However, seeing her daughter's ex-boyfriend and her best friend being so affectionate with each other was very hurtful to Xia Xun.
Mei Fang said goodbye to the elders and went downstairs to find Xia Yuan. Xia Yuan and Mei Ya were playing games together and having a lot of fun. They were playing a game called "Rayman Origins". When they saw Mei Fang coming down to watch, Xia Yuan immediately took out another controller from the side and handed it to Mei Fang, saying:
"Afang! Let's play this. Four people can play this game together. It's really funny. Hahaha!"
"Yeah... I miss this so much..."
Mei Fang took the controller while Xia Yuan tilted her head and said, "Have you played this game before? I don't even know when you played it... and who you played it with! Tell me now!"
"I didn't play it myself. I saw other people playing it on C Station before."
In his previous life, Mei Fang didn't have a childhood sweetheart to be close to, so he was an orphan most of the time. He could only watch others play family games on the game channel.
Although Zhang Ming and other same-sex friends were invited to play the cracked version of the simulator on the computer, everyone lost interest after playing it once.
"What? You didn't even tell me you wanted to play. I've actually been wanting to play this for a long time... Here you go, come and play."
This game is a horizontal jumping game. Its most distinctive features are that it is easy to get started and has a fast pace. As long as you know a little about the operation of the handle, you can have a lot of fun playing it. It is a very good party game.
At the same time, this game is not very difficult. As long as everyone does not die together, they can be resurrected immediately and continue to fight.
It’s just that Xia Yuan’s operating level is about the same as her sister Mei Ya, so it’s a little difficult for the two of them to play. But now with the addition of the god of war Mei Fang, it becomes very simple to continue the level.
"Afang, Afang, wait for me! Stop dragging the screen!"
"Damn Ah Fang, I'm going to beat you to death! Haha, you can really hit friendly forces."
"Sister Yuanyuan, I'll help you beat up your brother!"
"Hey, hey... You two should go fight the boss, why are you fighting me? You are a bunch of stupid teammates."
"What stupid teammate? You are the stupid teammate! Humph!"
During the fight, Xia Yuan sat in Mei Fang's arms out of habit. This natural and harmonious scene shocked little Mei Ya next to him for 10 seconds, because even though she loved to act like a spoiled child, she had never had such an intimate behavior with her brother. It was really too embarrassing.
Oh, you have to get used to it...
Seeing her sister-in-law being so childish, little Meiya always felt that she had become more mature than she should be at her age.
Mei Fang and Xia Yuan were having a great time, and suddenly he remembered that he had said in his early years that he wanted to improve Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi's gaming aesthetics. However, he ended up being so busy developing the game and being so affectionate that he completely forgot about it.
But under Mei Fang's influence, Xia Yuan was still very interested in various games, which can be attributed to the influence of his childhood.
Everyone passed several levels in a row and finally got tired of playing, so they put down the controllers and took a break.
Mei Fang lowered her head and asked the baby Yuanyuan in her arms, "Do you like game consoles?"
"Yeah, I like it!"
Xia Yuan raised his head and touched Mei Fang's cheek, "Let's buy one after we graduate from high school, okay?"
"No, we want to buy three... um, four! XBOXONE, PS3, PSV and... 3DS or WII..."
Mei Fang explained to Xia Yuan, "Each platform has its own exclusive games. If we want to play a certain game, we can play it together. By the way, when we buy a house in Pengcheng, we can set up a room as our game room, and then buy a display cabinet and fill it with all kinds of games and figurines..."
"There are so many game consoles! Ah Fang knows so much. I'll have a lot to play with this summer vacation. Haha..."
The game room could be said to be Mei Fang’s biggest dream before his sudden death.
For him, sitting in a game room full of dynamic lights with his wife and children, playing games happily, would be a very dreamy and romantic scene.
Of course, he also understood that for him, who was poor and busy,
A wife who loves games;
A game room that can be freely arranged;
A well-behaved and obedient child;
A period of free time to play games;
Either of these is a very distant dream.
However, now that this dream is almost within reach, it really feels like reliving an old dream.
When he thought of this, Mei Fang suddenly felt that this happiness was incredible, and he couldn't help but hug Xia Yuan tighter in his arms.
Xia Yuan knew that Mei Fang was imagining their future, and couldn't help but move closer to Mei Fang's arms.
Meiya listened to her brothers and sisters talking and interrupted:
"Speaking of which, since you're so rich now, do I not have to work so hard on the exam?"
Meiya said seriously, "I've been thinking about concentrating on becoming an astronaut recently!"
"Have you started preparing so early, Xiaoya? You are amazing. You stick to your dream and never change."
Xia Yuan encouraged Mei Ya and touched her head, "Keep going. Sister Yuanyuan will definitely support you! If there is anything that Sister Yuanyuan can help with, remember to tell me."
"Yeah! I really like Sister Yuanyuan!"
"Hehe... Sister knows..."
Xia Yuan gently touched her sister's head. At this time, Mei Fang leaned close to Xia Yuan's ear and whispered softly, making Xia Yuan blush.
"Please be restrained in a place like this... What if my mother—"
Mei Ya said as she jumped up from Xia Yuan's arms, "You guys can just be affectionate, it's okay! I'll keep watch for you!"
"Well, that's not necessary—"
Seeing Mei Ya jogging to watch the wind, Mei Fang and Xia Yuan in his arms couldn't help laughing.
"Have you told Xiaoya about the three of us? It feels like she knows everything."
"Our sister is very smart. She told me a long time ago that I should not get married with you guys, so that I can be with you two forever, and it doesn't matter..."
"That's right... There's nothing wrong with having two sisters-in-law. If I were Xiaoya, I would also..."
As Xia Yuan spoke, her face suddenly turned red and she pinched Mei Fang in annoyance.
"Don't do anything bad here!"
"I'm a teenage boy, please be considerate."
Xia Yuan thought about it, then stood up and said a few words to Mei Fang, and they spent some exclusive time together.
After spending a leisurely afternoon in the villa, everyone went to the resort’s farmhouse hotel to enjoy the resort’s unique home-cooked meals.
After playing cards together, the relationship between the parents has obviously improved a lot. At the dinner table, Mei Lijun and Xia Xun talked constantly, Xiang Xiaoxia and Yu Ling were also talking and laughing, and Lin Youxi was able to join in and say a few words.
"The home-cooked food here is really delicious. Yuanyuan really knows how to choose a place."
Mei Lijun praised Xia Yuan's arrangement today, "I've been to so many farmhouses, and I feel that the roasted chicken here is the most authentic!"
"hey-hey… "
Xia Yuan scratched his head embarrassedly, "I also learned about this place from someone else... But the best part is yet to come. Let's take a walk after dinner, and then soak in the hot springs together. It's good for your health."
"Remember to enter the hot spring pool one hour after a meal, otherwise your body will not be able to bear it."
Lin Youxi reminded.
The hot spring pools in the Linjiang District Resort are man-made hot springs. There are nearly a hundred public hot spring pools of various sizes. However, the single-family villas like the one Xia Yuan booked all have their own private hot spring pools in the yard. This high-end villa even has two hot spring pools of different sizes in the front and back yards, which can be said to be very luxurious.
After changing clothes, Mei Fang took a bath in the same hot spring with Mei Lijun and Xia Xun.
…
It seems that this is the benefit of hot springs!
Mei Fang was unable to improve Xia Xun's impression of him while playing cards, so this was a good opportunity for him to get closer to his future father-in-law.
Mei Fang and Mei Lijun were chatting with each other. Seeing Xia Xun was silent, Mei Fang wanted to talk to him, but Mei Lijun suddenly called his son over:
"Mei Fang, come here. This is a rare opportunity. I'll let you relive your father's love. I'll rub your back."
"Huh? We are not from the north. When did we have the habit of rubbing backs?"
"Oh, how could you have forgotten how much you loved back scrubbing when you were a child? You used to clamor for a back scrub every day. Your mother also liked me to scrub her back. I can tell you that my skills are definitely at the level of a gold medal back scrub master."
It was obvious that Meilijun was very happy today, and seemed to be itching to show off his skills.
He very attentively beckoned Mei Fang to come closer, "If you just try it, you will remember it. This is the most beautiful and unforgettable memory of your childhood!"
"I'm afraid it's not something that happened when I was a baby..."
Although he was a little reluctant, Mei Fang didn't want to show his rebellious side in front of his father-in-law, so he could only lean over obediently and said, "Whatever you want."
“Woooaaaaah!”
The hot spring was filled with steam. Mei Lijun took a bath towel and rubbed Mei Fang's back with all his might, causing Mei Fang to scream in pain.
Mei Fang's memory in this life was not clear enough for him to remember everything. Such vigorous back scrubbing made him suddenly recall the painful experience when he was in elementary school, when his father was obsessed with scrubbing and used him as a tool to practice scrubbing.
"You remember everything now! The happiness we had in the past!"
"What kind of happiness are you! Be gentle! Ah, tut tut tut—"
At this time, Xia Xun was resting with his eyes closed in the hot spring pool. Listening to the father and son of the Mei family screaming like pigs being slaughtered, Xia Xun couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth and revealed a slight smile.
Sometimes he actually thought that no matter how cute his daughter was, she would eventually fall into the arms of another man.
But for a son, his father may indeed be someone he can rely on for his entire life.
Play games together, grow together, be both teachers and friends, and rely on each other.
The bond between father and son is also something that is very desirable, just like what Mei Fang and Mei Lijun feel now.
Xia Xun now has no one to inherit his huge family business, so it can only go to the bastard who took Yuanyuan away.
Maybe I should have given Yuanyuan a younger brother at that time... That way no one would dare to bully Yuanyuan in the future.
However, if that were the case, my wife would not be able to continue the education career she loves.
There is always a trade-off in everything, there is nothing we can do about it.
After torturing Mei Fang, Mei Lijun entered the pool and staggered in front of Xia Xun.
"Old Xia, it's boring to take a bath here alone. Can I give you a try by rubbing your back?"
"… "
Xia Xun closed his eyes and pretended not to hear.
"Come on, don't be polite, we are friends, I will rub you well!"
The carefree Mei Lijun's familiarity without paying attention to the atmosphere made Xia Xun, a proud and cold successful man, feel suffocated - Mei Lijun approached step by step.
In the large hot spring pool on the other side, Yu Ling and Xiang Xiaoxia were chatting about family matters, while Xia Yuanlin Youxi took Mei Ya to take a bath together, when they suddenly heard a heart-wrenching scream from the pool next door.
Mei Ya was immediately puzzled and asked, "Was that Uncle Xia Xun's voice just now? First it was my brother, then Uncle Xia Xun, why were they shouting in pain while taking a hot spring bath over there... Were they fighting?"
"It doesn't sound like... Maybe this is friendship between men!"
Lin Youxi smiled and patted Mei Ya's shoulder. Xia Yuan beside her tilted her head in confusion:
Why does Youxi look like she knows so much
I originally wanted to call this chapter "Hot Spring Benefits", but I was afraid that everyone would accuse me of lying and want to fuck me, so forget it.
