First, an uncle popped up, and then another uncle popped up. Li Jingmo's mind couldn't help but become a little confused. It wasn't that he hadn't been to the Han Family Manor, and it wasn't that he didn't know about the Han Family's situation, but he had never heard of Han Yuxi having such relatives!
Also, why did the name Li Dejian sound so familiar?
"Uncle Li, Dejian is Duke Wei's eldest son!"
Qin Huaiyu saw Li Jingmo's confused face and explained softly.
Buzz ~!
Li Jing, it was actually Li Jing's son. Li Jingmo's mind was buzzing from this news. In terms of prestige among the people, Li Jing's reputation was definitely greater than Qin Qiong's. That was the Tang Empire's military god! The Tang Empire's military god who had won every battle!
If Du Yanheng came over to deliver the dowry, he might have the intention of using Han Yuxi's relationship with the Li Family. Then, there was only one possibility for Li Jing to send his son over to acknowledge the family — Han Yuxi was definitely Li Jing's grandniece. Li Jing, who was in a high position and had great prestige, wouldn't randomly come over to claim kinship just because of Li Zexuan's current achievements.
"Sorry for the disrespect! Thank you for your concern, Duke Wei. Dejian, please come in! "
Almost instantly, Li Jingmo understood the crux of the matter. He was a little overwhelmed by the favor and quickly thanked him. As for why Li Jing became Han Yuxi's granduncle, that was the Han Family's own family matter. It wasn't convenient for him to ask too much.
"Haha ~! Old Master Li is too polite ~! "
Li Dejian smiled honestly and returned the greeting.
"Ah ~! This ~! This ~! "
Li Zexuan, who was standing beside Qin Huaiyu, was dumbfounded. Li Jing was also present when he was treating Qin Qiong's illness at the Qin Manor. At that time, he even called Li Jing Uncle Li. In just a few short months, he had just married a wife. Why was he suddenly a generation lower than him ~?
This was a little too big of a loss! He had to go back and ask Han Yuxi properly.
The majestic procession of gifts entered the Li Residence at a very slow speed. All kinds of gifts were piled up like a mountain, and the front courtyard could not fit them all. In the end, some of the gifts were piled up in the west courtyard. Old Man Li saw that he was short of manpower, so he hurriedly sent for three accountants and eight workers from the shop to sort out the gifts before noon. As for the storage of these gifts, they could only wait until noon.
There were many gifts, but there were even more people who came. There were close to two hundred people who came to deliver the dowry for the Han Family. The other three families brought more than three hundred people together. With so many people, it was impossible to let them come all the way here for nothing. At the very least, they should take care of lunch.
Lunch for over five hundred people was definitely not something the Li Residence's own kitchen could handle. Although Li Jingmo didn't expect so many people to come today, he was already prepared. The Drunken Immortal Restaurant's kitchen had all been called over in advance. Today, the Drunken Immortal Restaurant's business would definitely be down, but the Li Family didn't care about that.
Therefore, these five hundred plus ordinary people were very lucky today. They didn't spend a single cent and enjoyed a feast personally prepared by the Drunken Immortal Restaurant's kitchen. There were thirty big tables in the front courtyard of the Li Residence, twenty big tables in the open space in front of the Li Residence, and two tables in the main hall to entertain the important people who came today.
When it was time to eat, the fragrance spread for ten miles. The entire Yongle Lane was filled with the fragrance of the Li Residence's banquet.
"Tsk tsk! Old Master Li is really generous! Mmm! It's so fragrant! "
"Is this chicken nibbled on? I didn't expect it! I can actually eat this expensive chicken today. I didn't come for nothing! "
"Oh my god! This wine is so fragrant! Uh, it's a little little! "
"Bah! Big Dog Wang, you really don't know how to be content. Do you know what wine this is? This is the Drunken Immortal Restaurant's Gentle Village! It's two strings of money per liter! It's already very rare for us to have a pot on each table. You better cherish it! "
"Heh! So this is the Gentle Village. I've never drunk it before. I have to taste it today! "
"Tsk! Big Dog Wang, you bastard, leave some for us! "
"That's right, that's right!"
…
The people who came to deliver the makeup today ate and drank to their heart's content in the Li Residence. The passersby saw the commotion inside and smelled the fragrance inside. They couldn't help but stop and discuss in low voices. Their envy was obvious.
"Wow! The Li Residence's extravagance today is really grand! They set up so many tables for the banquet? "
"Hey, you didn't see the extravagance of the makeup delivery this morning, right? That's called a grand occasion! Chang 'an City hasn't had such a grand ceremony for many years! "
"Haha! After smelling the fragrance for so long, I don't even need to eat lunch! The Li Family's chef's skills are really good! "
"What do you know? Old Master Li specially asked the Drunken Immortal Restaurant's chef to come over today to prepare the banquet! Didn't you see that the Drunken Immortal Restaurant is closed today? "
"Ah? The Li Family is really going all out today! "
"Hehe! Why didn't Old Master Han ask me to deliver the makeup?! Even if I have to work for a day, it's worth it to be able to eat this meal! "
"Mother! I'm hungry! "
A little girl by the roadside twitched her nose and said to the madam beside her.
"Niuniu is hungry? Then Mother will go back and make something delicious for you, okay? "
The madam bent down and rubbed her daughter's little head as she said softly.
"No, no! Niuniu wants to eat their food! "
The little girl blinked and pointed at the Li Residence's main door.
"This …"
…
Chonghua Square.
Du Residence, side hall.
"Old Master! I heard that Big Brother still went to deliver the makeup to that girl! "
A woman in purple in her thirties said to the middle-aged man sitting at the head of the table.
"Hmph! Big Brother is really selfish. Seeing that girl climb up the social ladder, he went over to suck up to her. What a disgrace to the Du Family! "
The middle-aged man's face was gloomy. He slammed the table and said angrily, "What did my father say when he was alive? Has he forgotten all about it? Besides, the Li Family's Drunken Immortal and Gentle Village are said to be made by that girl. She has stolen a lot of business from our Winery Saint! That girl betrayed us and used the wine-making skills her mother taught her to deal with us. Big Brother actually went to deliver her makeup? How shameless! "
"Old Master is right! That wild girl is really hateful! She caused our Du Family to decline day by day. I didn't expect her to be able to hook up with a county man. She is really lucky! "
The woman in purple said viciously.
"Hmph! If it was in the past, not to mention a county man, even if he was an Earl, our Du Family would not even put him in our eyes. Under the leadership of Du Family, our Du Family is really declining. But luckily, we are separated ~! I'd like to see how much benefit Big Brother can get from sucking up to that wild girl! "
The sinister man took a sip of tea and said with a sneer.
"Yes, yes! Old Master is really wise! Our Winery Saint earned more than Big Brother's Winery Saint last month! "
"Hahahaha!"
