Chapter 80: The family is the best

"That's right, second master, let the eldest master also come along, let him also get to know the dignitaries, so that the eldest master's official position can also be mentioned, he has been in this position for many years, and it is time to be promoted." The eldest lady Mo also had a flattering look on her face, and poured tea to Li Guangyi diligently.

Li Luobing lowered his head and blinked, this eldest lord and eldest lady are really ...... Shouldn't it? Don't have a shred of self-knowledge? Li Guangqi wants to improve his position, why doesn't he want to rely on himself? Do you still want to rely on your younger brother who is behind you? Li Guangyi's position is still behind. To be honest, this Li family really doesn't have a trace of human touch, except for Li Jinyue.

Li Luobing thought of this and glanced at everyone. Li Jinlan and Li Jinhua nodded, and Li Luojiao clapped her hands excitedly. Li Luolan, Li Luoya, and Li Luomei, the three women, looked at Li Guangyi, their eyes shining.

The second lady was drinking tea, with a look of distraction, and Li Luoxia didn't know what she was thinking, her eyes were confused, and she seemed to be caught in her own thoughts.

Only Li Jinyue lowered his head in embarrassment, his face was slightly red, and he seemed to be ashamed of having such a father.

Li Guangyi's resolute face trembled slightly, and he looked at the old lady, his eyes were still firm: "Big brother, you are a person in the officialdom, if you enter with my family...... Once found out by your boss, I'm afraid of your career as big brother...... Not okay? Mother, what do you think? ”

The old lady's face sank with a little happiness, and she glanced at Li Guangyi dissatisfied: "Since you can't take the eldest brother, then you can bring all the grandchildren." Anyway, they are all your juniors, and they all belong to your family. After she finished speaking, she turned her head and said to Li Guangqi: "Guangqi, forget it this time, next time you have a chance, you will definitely let Guangyi take you there." ”

"Yes!" The two brothers replied in unison.

Li Luobing was a little puzzled, how could the old lady treat her two sons differently? Could it be that there is something going on during this period? She looked up at Li Guangqi and Li Guangyi.

Both men are in their forties, and their ages don't seem to be much different. Maybe it's because Li Guangyi is in the army, his face is dark, his whole person looks thin and strong, his eyes are resolute, and he seems to be very energetic. And Li Guangqi's whole person looks fair and slightly fat, his skin looks loose, and his eyes are dim, as if he is overindulged. Despite this, the contours of their faces are similar, their noses are also somewhat similar, and their eyebrows are similar, and as soon as the two of them go out, everyone knows that they are related by blood.

It seems that this is the old lady's partiality.

But also, the old lady is such an eccentric person. Li Luobing thought silently. As a result of the discussion of this family banquet, I finally obeyed the old lady's instructions and took out all the money to arm the children of the Li family, make clothes, buy jewelry, etc......

For this banquet, Li Luobing is a little looking forward to it, so that he can see Murong Liuyun again. She regards Murong Liuyun, the Mask Boy, as a friend, but she thinks that sometimes it is strange: sometimes she feels strange with Murong Liuyun, and sometimes she feels strange with the Mask Child.

Just like Li Luobing's surgery that day, she looked at the Mask Boy several times, she wanted to greet him like a friend, but the Mask Boy turned his gaze away, pretending to be very busy, and he didn't even have time to greet himself. Li Luobing could only give up, maybe because of the presence of other people, right? So the masked boy kept his distance from himself.

Not only Li Luobing is looking forward to it, but everyone in the Li family is looking forward to it, among which Li Luoxia is also looking forward to it, she took her mother's hand, with longing in her eyes: "Mother, you said that King Ning also went this time, right?" The last time I attended Mrs. Chen's banquet, King Ning ...... Come, I must come this time, you say, if I have nothing to do with King Yan, King Ning, will it ...... Be kind to your daughter? ”

The second lady looked at herself with complicated eyes and touched her head: "Yes." ”

"Mother, it's just that my status is too low. In fact, I also know that I am not worthy of King Ning......" Li Luoxia suddenly lowered again, her face full of frustration.

The second lady's gaze became more complicated: "Luo Xia, it's all my mother's fault......"

"Mother, how could it be your fault? In fact...... It's Daddy...... If only Daddy were a third-grade official. Like an uncle...... Even if Daddy is not a third grade, it is a fourth grade. It's a pity that he has always been an eight-rank ......"

The second lady didn't speak, hugged Li Luoxia, her body trembled slightly, and said in a bitter voice: "Luoxia, mother......" I'm sorry for you, the last four words were swallowed in her throat.

Li Luoxia didn't notice that something was wrong with her mother, all in her mind was the shadow of King Ning, who was wearing a white dress and smiled faintly at herself......

Finally arrived on the day of the banquet.

Although it is said to be a celebration banquet for the victory of the Northern Expedition, many people come during the day in the evening, just to make friends with more officials on occasions such as banquets and pave the way for their own wealth.

Similarly, the Li family's family walked towards the Qin Palace.

Xue Yong, the housekeeper of the Qin Palace, took Li Guangyi's invitation, was slightly surprised, and stopped with a professional smile, he glanced at the group behind Li Guangyi: a lady, three young men, and five young women. I wondered a little in my heart: This Lieutenant Li has too many family members, right? The others brought a lady and two or three people, and he ...... For the sake of him being a general of the Northern Expedition, let him in.

Thinking of this, Xue Yong once again smiled professionally: "Captain Li, please...... Come, take Governor Li and his family into the mansion......"

As soon as he entered the mansion, Li Jinlan anxiously took Li Jinhua's hand and said that he was leaving: "Second uncle, let's walk around now and meet some people of the same age as us, maybe they will become our brothers' nobles." ”

Li Guangyi nodded, he glanced at everyone, stayed on Li Luobing's face for a second, and then retracted his gaze carelessly, and finally he admonished: "You remember, there are many dignitaries and nobles in this banquet, you must be cautious in what you do, once you provoke someone, when the time comes, I have no ability to help you." I suggest you talk less and do less, just look and think. ”

"Got it, second uncle, don't worry." Li Jinlan didn't think so, pulled Li Jinhua and left with a happy face.

Soon, everyone went their separate ways. Li Luobing followed behind Li Luoxia, walking while looking at the surrounding scenery, this is worthy of being the residence of King Qin, the most glorious and wealthy prince in the Mingyue Kingdom.

The scenery here is indeed luxurious and outstanding, very extravagant, the houses are magnificent, splendid, pavilions, carved beams and paintings, this is really the crystallization of ancient wisdom, Li Luobing feels that his eyes are not enough, and his eyes are full of appreciation of art.

"Luo Bing!" The second lady stopped, turned her head and looked at Li Luobing lightly.

"Second lady!"

"Luo Bing, you can walk around."

"Second lady, no, I'll go with my fourth sister."

"Luo Bing, Luo Xia and I will go together, you don't need to follow anymore." The second lady Liu's tone hardened, with a faint threat in her eyes, and there seemed to be no room for negotiation.

Li Luobing had long felt that the second lady Liu didn't like herself, she glanced at Li Luoxia, Li Luoxia lowered her head, she didn't look at it at all, she looked very well-behaved and obeyed her mother's orders, she had to nod helplessly: "Yes, second lady!" ”

"Li Luobing, no matter how much you try to please the second lady, it is useless, and you are not the biological daughter of the second lady." Li Luojiao saw that Li Luobing was driven away by the second lady, and she walked over very proudly and talked to herself.

Li Luobing didn't pay attention to Li Luojiao's provocation at all. She randomly found a chair and sat down, sitting still, her eyes just carefully observing others.

After listening to Li Guangyi's description of the political corruption of Mingyue Kingdom, she still has no idea, she thinks that this banquet can find some clues.

"What? Don't dare to speak?" Li Luojiao approached, deliberately sat down next to Li Luobing, and continued to sarcastically: "Do you want the second lady to be your biological mother?" Don't be whimsical, even if you call her mother, she is not, she will not be good to you. Don't be delusional. ”

Who has thought about this? But there are flies buzzing in my ears all the time, and it's so annoying: "Don't come near me!" Li Luobing snorted coldly at Li Luojiao: "I know you don't like me, and in the same way, I don't like you either." ”

"Li Luobing, what are you talking about?" Li Luojiao immediately stood up with an angry face: "Hmph, what are you, I'm your sister, you actually treat me like this?" Last time, you were not afraid of being locked up in the ancestral hall by your grandmother for two days and two nights? Do you still want your grandmother to punish you more severely? Don't know how to respect me at all? ”

Li Luobing felt that staying here and having to endure Li Luojiao's rude tantrum all the time was really unreasonable, so she stood up abruptly: "You are here, I'll walk around!" ”

"You...... I don't know what to do, I hope you will be punished by the nobles when you encounter them. Li Luojiao cursed at Li Luobing's back.

Li Luobing didn't bother to pay attention to her, and provoked the nobleman to be punished, and it is estimated that Li Luojiao's temperament will be a little bigger. She was bored and planned to look for Murong Liuyun, after all, as a member of the Murong family, banquets were often attended. Naturally, he will definitely attend this banquet.

Just as he was looking around, he just saw that on the opposite side of the lake, Murong Liuyun, dressed in white, was fanning his fan and walking towards the pavilion not far away, there were several women in the pavilion, and it seemed that they were running for the beauty again. Seeing Murong Liuyun, Li Luobing was overjoyed and hurriedly walked to the opposite side.
