Seeing that Zhao Hai didn't speak, Jason didn't care. He quickly invited Zhao Hai to drink some tea. At this time, footsteps could be heard from the back of the living room. Before long, several people came out from the back of the living room.
Zhao Hai and Jason quickly stood up. Zhao Hai looked at the people who came in. The one leading them was an old man. This old man didn't seem to be young, but his face was glowing with health. He was wearing a luxurious noble's robe. Although the old man wasn't very tall, his temperament and his robes made it impossible for anyone to underestimate him.
Behind the old man was a middle-aged man. This middle-aged man looked very similar to Jason, but his face was very serious. His eyes shined brightly, one could see that he was a shrewd person. Behind the two was the servant who went to call them.
Jason quickly bowed to the old man and said, "Grandfather, Father, this is the Buda Clan's Patriarch, Zhao Hai. Little Hai, this is my Grandfather, and this is my Father."
Zhao Hai immediately bowed to the two and said, "Grandfather, Uncle, Zhao Hai is very polite."
Jason's Grandfather and Father looked at Zhao Hai. Then Jason's Grandfather smiled faintly and said, "Good, this child Little Sen doesn't have many friends. You should come more often in the future."
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "When I have time, I'll definitely come. But I've been running around all year long, so I don't have much time. Today is the New Year's Day, and because of Megan's request, I came to Carson City. I'm afraid that there won't be many opportunities like this in the future. But Grandfather and Uncle can rest assured, Jason and I will always be friends."
Jason's Grandfather nodded, then he looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Good, I'm relieved to hear your words. But Little Hai, I'm just curious. Little Hai, this child Little Sen is very straightforward, the entire Rosen Empire knows about him. How did you become friends with him? Can you stand that mouth of his? "
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "It's fine as long as he can stand me. I don't think there's anything between me and Jason. He's just a straightforward person, he says what he likes. Such a person is good, he'll be a good friend. Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer people who dare to speak the truth."
Jason's grandfather stared, he wouldn't be surprised if someone of his age said such words. But looking at Zhao Hai's appearance, he knew that he was younger than Jason. It wasn't easy for him to say such words.
Jason's father hadn't said a word since he entered the room. He just stared at Zhao Hai until Zhao Hai said those words. His eyes lit up as he carefully looked at Zhao Hai.
Jason's grandfather nodded and said, "Good, since you can say that, then you can really become friends with Little Jason. Alright, don't leave at noon, stay here and drink with me."
Jason smiled and said, "Grandfather, I originally wanted to drink with Zhao Hai. But since you said that, then the two of us can't drink."
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "Alright, I'll accompany Grandfather and Uncle for a drink or two. Right, this nephew also brought some gifts. I'll leave them outside, you can have the servants put them away." Then he went outside and took out the seafood that he prepared for the Crook Family.
These seafood were rare in the continent, but for a Great Clan like the Crook Family, they weren't rare at all. However, the quality of the seafood that Zhao Hai took out was very rare.
After Zhao Hai took out the things, he turned to Jason and said, "Jason, have the servants put them away. I don't have anything good, so I can only give you some seafood that I made."
Jason laughed and said, "Good, so many delicious things. Good, you prepared the best things. Hahaha. Kid, you're quite considerate."
Zhao Hai laughed and said, "Don't think about saving. Have the kitchen prepare it so that we can drink. Right, I also brought some wine." Then Zhao Hai took out several large leather bags filled with milk wine.
Jason's grandfather and father looked at the two people who were laughing and chatting. Jason's grandfather said, "Little Jason finally found a good friend. He's a good friend, a good friend indeed."
Jason's father also nodded and said, "I didn't think that Little Jason would be able to make a good friend with his temper. I've been worried about this kid."
Jason's grandfather smiled and said, "Little Hai is a very good child. Haha, these days, not only are there fewer people who dare to speak the truth, there are also fewer people who like to hear the truth. Haha, good."
Then Jason's grandfather smiled and said, "You were wondering what Little Hai was planning. Now you see, he's a good kid. To be able to make such a friend, Little Jason's life is worth it."
Jason's father nodded, then he sighed and said, "It's not easy to make such a friend in this life, especially with our status. Little Jason's luck is really good."
At this time, the servants came and took the things that Zhao Hai brought to the warehouse. Zhao Hai and Jason went to the living room. Jason's grandfather and father also sat down, but the two looked at Zhao Hai with a soft expression.
Jason's grandfather looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Little Hai, treat this place as your home. You can come whenever you want, don't be polite."
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "Certainly, Grandfather can rest assured."
Jason's grandfather stood up and said, "Alright, you youngsters can go and play. Right, remember, don't drink. You have to accompany me at noon. If you drink too much, then no one will accompany me."
Zhao Hai smiled and nodded, then watched the two leave. When Jason saw that the two were gone, he turned to Zhao Hai and said, "Let's go to my courtyard, I have some snacks there. Let's drink a few cups first, we won't drink much anyway."
Zhao Hai smiled bitterly as he shook his head and said, "You don't want me to go back. Let's go." When the two of them returned to Jason's courtyard, Jason ordered the servants to bring them some snacks from the street food. The two of them each had a cup of wine and drank it without taking a sip.
After drinking two mouthfuls of wine, Jason looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Little Hai, do you want to forget about yesterday's matter? Do you want to deal with Terry's Crown Prince? "
Zhao Hai looked at Jason and smiled, "What's wrong? You want to help me? Kid, can you do it? You're not the head of the Crook Family right now. You should be clear about the status of those two. Don't mess around. "
Jason snorted and said, "Thinking about what happened last night makes me angry. Damn, not only did they scheme against you, they even plotted against me. If I don't vent my anger, I won't be able to sleep well."
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry, I'm not a person who doesn't fight back after suffering a loss."
When Jason heard Zhao Hai, his eyes couldn't help but light up as he said, "Really? Kid, do you want to retaliate against them? Do you have a plan? "
Zhao Hai looked at Jason's expression, then he smiled bitterly and said, "I know that I have a grudge against them, but those who don't know might think that you have a big grudge against them. I haven't thought of a plan yet, but they are certainly on guard against me. But don't worry, I won't let them have an easy time, but it will take some time."
Jason nodded and said, "Alright, but you have to tell me when you take action. If you need my help, you must tell me. Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite."
Zhao Hai gave him a blank look and said, "What can you do if you're impolite? Be honest, if you get involved in this matter, then it would be equal to getting involved in the Crown Prince's struggle. Would your family agree to this? Remember, you don't just represent yourself, you have a big family behind you. In the future, you should discuss this matter with your father and grandfather. "
Jason sighed, then he picked up his glass and took a sip. Then he turned his head to Zhao Hai and said, "Being a human is good. You can do whatever you want, nobody would care, nobody would ask. You have a lot of freedom."
Zhao Hai sighed and said, "Freedom? Do you really think that I'm that relaxed? I have a lot of people behind me, so I have a lot of things to worry about. If nobody finds my nest, then I can deal with them as I please. But if someone finds my nest, then I'll be in a lot of trouble. But I need to think carefully before I do anything. At the very least, I don't want to implicate the Calci Family. Megan married me, and I already feel sorry for her. If I implicate the Calci Family because of my matters, then I'll feel even more guilty. "Zhao Hai nodded and said," That's right.
Jason looked at Zhao Hai, then he suddenly smiled and said, "I really didn't see it. Kid, you're really good. But I'm telling you the truth. Last night, I saw that Princess Lizzy looked at you strangely. What if she wants to marry you?"
Zhao Hai forced a smile and said, "Don't talk nonsense. What do you mean by marrying me? Look at my current status, I'm a Count, not even a Count of Rosen Empire. Moreover, I already have three fiancées. Do you really think that Princess Lizzy would marry me? Don't joke around. "
Jason smiled and said, "That's hard to say. Megan's status isn't much worse than Princess Lizzy, but she still ended up marrying you. You need to have confidence in yourself."
Zhao Hai laughed and said, "Get lost, when did I lose confidence in myself? I just think that even if Princess Lizzy agrees, do you think that His Majesty would agree? A Princess trying to steal a husband from several other women, it would be strange if His Majesty would agree. "
Jason nodded and said, "You're right, even if Princess Lizzy agrees, His Majesty wouldn't. Princess Lizzy is his most beloved daughter, and this matter is related to the Imperial Family's face. His Majesty certainly wouldn't agree."
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "You know that. Also, I don't have any thoughts about Princess Lizzy. Among my three fiancées, Meg grew up with me. Her grandfather is Spiritual Wind Green, my grandfather's generation. Moreover, she's very loyal to the Buda Clan. If it wasn't for Grandpa Green, I might have died a long time ago. Laura threw away her years of hard work for me and even fell out with the Markey Dell Clan. Megan didn't care about my low birth and was determined to marry me. With these three fiancées, I'm already satisfied."
Jason looked at Zhao Hai's appearance and sighed, "Kid, you're really lucky. Your luck with women is also very good. You actually managed to find such good girls, I really envy you to death."
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and didn't talk back. He agreed with these words. To be able to get the favor of Laura and the others, Zhao Hai was very happy.
Because they had to drink with Jason's grandfather at noon, the two of them didn't drink too much. They only drank a small cup of wine and ate some snacks before they went to rest.
During lunch, the atmosphere was very lively. Jason's grandfather not only called some of the influential people of the family to sit with him, he also introduced Zhao Hai to them. This gave Zhao Hai a very good impression.
However, in such an occasion, it was impossible to drink too much. Naturally, it was also impossible to eat too much. Almost everyone was just chatting and pretending. For such occasions, Zhao Hai and Jason didn't like it. But today's lunch was specially prepared for Zhao Hai, so he couldn't leave and could only stay there. This made Zhao Hai very impatient.
After lunch, Zhao Hai chatted with Jason for a while before he got up and said his goodbyes. Jason accompanied Zhao Hai outside the fort before he waved goodbye to Zhao Hai.
When Zhao Hai returned to Dark Soldier Fort, the sky was already dark. He returned to the courtyard and ate some food. Then he told Laura and the others about what happened in Jason's house.
Today, someone sent an invitation to Zhao Hai, inviting him to a banquet. However, Zhao Hai declined, he hated banquets the most, it was better if he didn't attend them.
The next day was a rare tranquility. Although there were still people sending tents, they were all sent after God's Grace Day. This was because tomorrow was God's Grace Day, nobody would attend any banquets. Aside from the Imperial Palace's banquet tomorrow night, most Nobles wouldn't hold any banquets in these two days.
This day, the people inside Dark Soldier Fort were very busy, everyone was preparing for tomorrow's Grace Day. For a Great Noble like the Calci Family, they were very particular when it came to celebrating Grace Day. They had a lot of rules and regulations, so everyone needed to prepare in advance. The family would also send people to inform them of what to do tomorrow, as well as their itinerary. This way, they wouldn't be in a situation where they couldn't find anyone.
Zhao Hai and the others also received the schedule. When Zhao Hai looked at it, he couldn't help but feel that today was very busy. What time to wake up in the morning, what time to eat, what clothes to wear, when to worship the ancestors, what clothes to wear, who to go first, and the etiquette of worshipping the ancestors, these were all written clearly on the schedule. Zhao Hai was afraid that he would make a mistake.
For a Great Noble like the Calci Family, their worship ceremony was very solemn. If there was a mistake during the ceremony, then they would be heavily punished. Moreover, it would affect their status in the family.
Although Zhao Hai wasn't a member of the Calci Family, he didn't care about his status in the family. However, Smith was, and they were Smith's people. If something went wrong, then Smith would be implicated. Because of this, Zhao Hai had to prepare carefully.
At the same time, Zhao Hai also had Cai 'er monitor the entire Dark Soldier Fort. If someone was found to be plotting against him, then Cai' er would inform him. He was afraid that Juwan and Third Grandfather would plot against him during the ceremony. If that happened, then he would feel wronged.
