After experiencing some wary confrontations, a consensus was reached amongst them and a semblance of peace was restored.
Suizi's wish of not getting beaten was fulfilled, which made her quite happy. She cooked up a table full of her specialty dishes, the family gathered together to celebrate. Even though it was past New Year's, the festive mood was still in the air. This year had been particularly satisfactory for Suizi.
That night, the elder family members had quite a bit to drink. Yu Jingting was the instigator, he had single-handedly incapacitated his mother and mother-in-law with his wine pouring skills, not sparing even his own father.
Jingting tried to trick his father, Shuisheng, by replacing his alcohol with water, given the excellent tolerance of the latter. This attempt was discovered by Suizi's father, which resulted in a round of punishment through drinking for Yu Jingting and backfired horribly.
