The problem now was that Hong Dali knew how to kick someone when they were down, and he was very familiar with it. After saying that, Hong Dali looked at Hong Jianye and Hong Anbao, smiled and said, "But after hearing what Fourth Uncle said, I feel that what he said is quite true. The family rules cannot be abandoned. If I take a leave of absence, it will not be good for me. Then, I will attend first. En, I deeply regret what happened here today. I think Brother Anbao accidentally slipped. I swear on the lamp, I really can't move him. "
"You!" Hong Anbao was furious and wanted to defend himself. Hong Dali looked at him innocently and said, "Brother Anbao, I really can't move you. If we collided, I would definitely be the one flying out. Am I right?"
Hong Dali's reason was even more convincing than a live recording.
Eleven out of ten people wouldn't believe that Hong Dali could send Hong Anbao flying.
As expected, Hong Wei, who was standing at the side, twirled the fitness ball in his hand and nodded. "Dali is right. Sigh, Anbao, you have to be more careful when you walk in the future. If you really hit Dali and something bad happens to him, your Fifth Uncle will not forgive you. "
Don't be fooled by Hong Wei's smiling face, he knew what was going on!
"O … OK, I understand." Hearing Second Elder Hong Wei's words, Hong Anbao sweated profusely. Now that things had come to this, he could only bear with it. This fellow was quite adaptable. He actually walked over and apologized to Hong Dali. "Dali, I wronged you previously. Please don't blame me. It's my fault for not paying attention. I will be more careful next time. Haha, haha. "
"Brother Anbao, you're too kind." Hong Dali grinned, his face full of harmlessness. "I will have to trouble Brother Anbao to take care of me in the future. My body is weak, Brother Anbao, please give in to me."
Hong Anbao snorted angrily and turned his head away, unable to say a word.
Seeing that Hong Dali had gained the upper hand, Hong Jianye's mouth twitched. He rolled his eyes and came up with a plan. He knew that he couldn't touch Hong Dali now, so he turned to the people around Hong Dali and said, "Old Elder, since it was a misunderstanding, let's forget about it. However, the people around Hong Dali barged into the manor. If I don't punish them … "
Hong Tu could be said to be giving Hong Dali a way out today. He had doted on Hong Dali since he was young, but that didn't mean that other people would receive such good treatment. He instantly turned around and looked at the driver, Wang Mingyu, and coldly said, "It's true that Dali is my good grandson, but that doesn't mean you can mess around. My Hong Family Manor was barged into by you today. If I don't give you an explanation, people will say that my Hong Family has no one to back it up. Do you have anything to say? "
Hong Dali objected. "Big Grandpa, is it that serious? Aren't you here to help me? Otherwise, I might as well turn a blind eye to it. Hehe, I promise to show filial piety to you in the future! "
Hong Tu patted Hong Dali's hand and shook his head. "Good boy, this isn't something that can be turned a blind eye."
Wang Mingyu and the rest looked at each other. In the end, Li Nianwei rushed forward and bowed to Hong Tu. She calmly said, "I know I shouldn't have barged into this place today. So, if Old Elder wants to punish me, I'm willing to bear it alone." She was brought up by Hong Dali. As long as Hong Dali was fine, she naturally didn't care what she did.
Once Li Nianwei stood out, the rest followed suit. Wang Mingyu said, "Old Elder, as long as Young Master is fine, you can punish us however you want. We have no objections."
Once he said that, it meant that everyone accepted the punishment.
Hong Tu was about to speak, but unexpectedly, an old man popped out from the crowd and grinned at Hong Tu. "Old Hong, we haven't seen each other for more than 50 years, but your temper is still the same as before, heh heh."
"You are …" Hong Tu carefully looked at Old Man Wang and suddenly exclaimed. "You are Wang Daoming?!"
Once Hong Tu shouted, Hong Jianye knew that things were going to be bad.
"It's me. You really didn't forget about me. Haha." As expected, Wang Daoming laughed heartily and didn't stand on ceremony. He hugged Hong Tu and said, "In the blink of an eye, it's been more than 50 years. Back then, on the battlefield, the two of us had a friendship where we drank wine and fought guns together. Do you still remember that time when I was accidentally hit by a stray bullet, you were the one who helped me dig out the bullet! "
"Hahaha, you old fellow!" Hong Tu laughed loudly and hugged Wang Daoming tightly. He then unhappily said, "All these years, I thought you went missing. You didn't even come to see me."
"How would I dare to come to your palace? Once I enter, it's as deep as the sea!" Wang Daoming pouted. "If not for Young Master getting into trouble today, I wouldn't even be willing to come. Speaking of which, what do you intend to do with these few fellows? Give me some face, how about it? "
"You've already appeared. What else can I do if I don't give you face?" Hong Tu smiled and put his arm around Wang Daoming's shoulder. "According to our Hong Family's rules, those who barge into the manor will be imprisoned for at least three years. Those who are in bad condition will be imprisoned for more than 10 years. But with your words, I'll make an exception and only lock them up for three months. Any shorter, and it won't do. "
"Three months." Wang Daoming thought for a while and finally nodded. "That's true. After all, they knocked down the manor's gate. Three months it is then. Nianwei lass, Mingyu, what do you say? "
Li Nianwei and the rest looked at each other and said, "We'll let Old Elder deal with them."
Hong Dali was hopping mad. "What are you doing? Lock my people up for three months?! You want me to be a commander without an army after I leave this place? I won't do it, I won't do it! "
As he was hopping mad, Geezer Wang hurriedly pulled him aside and softly said, "My Big Young Master, look at the situation today. If he doesn't deal with it, how will he convince the others in the future? Trust me this once. Listen to me first, we'll think of a way to solve it in the future. Just bear with it for now, okay? "
"I'm so angry." Hong Dali was huffing and puffing. But he had one good point, which was that he could listen to others. He knew that Geezer Wang was right. He had already caused a ruckus and barged into the manor. If he didn't get some punishment, it wouldn't be right. He could only fiercely nod and say, "Then, OK, I'll listen to you this once. Bear with it for now!"
"Hehe, that's the good thing about Young Master Dali. You listen to others." Geezer Wang smiled and returned to Hong Tu's side. "Old Hong, why don't we go for a drink first?"
"Of course." Hong Tu patted Wang Daoming's shoulder and then looked at Li Nianwei. This time, his expression was much friendlier. "You're Li Nianwei, right? I've heard of you. Many young people in our family like to listen to your songs. En, you're not bad looking and have a good temper. You're also very protective of us. Not bad, not bad. "
Li Nianwei smiled and said, "Thank you for your compliment, Old Elder."
Hong Tu nodded and looked at Wang Mingyu and the rest. "You're Wang Mingyu, right? Weiguo's driver? En, you dared to barge into the manor for Dali. Your courage is commendable. "
Wang Mingyu hurriedly replied with a head full of sweat, "I don't dare to. I was just a little anxious at that time."
"Hehe, it's a good thing to be loyal and protective of your master." Hong Tu nodded and said, "However, that's a different matter. You should be rewarded for protecting your master, but you should be punished for barging into the manor."
Wang Mingyu said, "I understand. Everyone understands."
"En." Hong Tu slowly said, "Alright, you guys can leave first."
Li Nianwei and the rest instantly followed the guards out. Hong Tu brought Tang Muxin and jogged to catch up. Hong Tu loudly said, "Little brat, where are you going? Come back quickly! "
"I'll just sleep with them tonight." Hong Dali replied as he ran. "Big Grandfather, I'll come and see you tomorrow morning!"
"This little brat." Hong Tu helplessly said, "Look at him, he's like a monkey jumping on a horse."
"Haha, Young Master Dali is very likable." Wang Daoming smiled and said, "Otherwise, I wouldn't be willing to follow him."
"En, alright, alright." Hong Tu turned around and waved his hand. "Everyone, disperse. Go back and have a good rest. We'll hold a family meeting at 2 PM tomorrow afternoon."
"Yes!" Everyone loudly responded.
"Then, go back and prepare." The three elders, Hong Tu, Hong Wei, and Hong Ying, left the venue. Hong Tu pulled Wang Daoming's hand and smiled as they walked. "Daoming, let's go and have a drink or two. Aiya, there aren't many of our comrades left, right? You have to tell me about it later! "
"There aren't many left." Wang Daoming sighed and said, "We're almost 80 years old. Those old fellows are even older than us. These few years, they've basically turned into ashes."
The few of them talked as they walked. Very soon, they arrived at a leisure tea house in the manor. The four of them sat around the tea table. A servant had already brewed a cup of high-quality Longjing tea. Hong Tu poured a bowl for Wang Daoming and smiled. "Daoming, these few decades, you haven't come to see me. How have you been recently? Back then, we went through fire and water together. With such a friendship, you're still treating me like an outsider. "
"From the time we fought the Japanese until now, it's been 50 years in the blink of an eye." Wang Daoming drank a mouthful of tea. "It's all in the past. Sigh, let's not talk about it. Our old bones are about to enter the ground. Why think so much? Young Master Dali's mentality is quite good. He doesn't take anything seriously. He's blessed. "
Just then, Hong Wei smiled and said, "Speaking of which, old brother, how did you get involved with this child Dali?"
"He, he's also considered an anomaly." Wang Daoming laughed heartily. "Usually, other than practicing boxing, I'd be working at a small barber shop to earn some wine money. That day, when I was riding an electric scooter, the rearview mirror of Young Master Dali's car was knocked off. Young Master Dali actually didn't ask me to pay for it. "
"This little brat has always been a prodigal. It's normal that he didn't ask you to pay for it." Hong Tu laughed heartily. "What happened after that?"
"After that, I left. Then, that day, I was anxious." The expression on Wang Daoming's face was very interesting. "I hit it again."
"Pfft —" Hong Tu couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of tea. "You two are really fated."
