Chapter 286: Family Banquet
The Li family, near the center of the city, has a large piece of land in the capital, and there is a mansion, which was the mansion of a first-class member of the Qing Dynasty more than a hundred years ago, and then the Li family bought it, and it has been decades now. The original mansion was very large, and after several renovations and expansions by the Li family, it eventually became a huge building complex.
At this moment, in a large meeting room of the Li family, a table of banquets has been opened.
Sitting on the top are three old men, one of whom is still a monk, and the other is naturally He Qingyun and the current helmsman of the Li family, that is, Li Wenqian's father, Li Rongcheng.
This is a legendary figure, such a behemoth as the Li family, who is in charge, is definitely an existence that can stomp his feet and tremble in the entire China City.
But at this moment, Li Rongcheng is also polite to the two true martial arts masters sitting next to him, maybe Zen Master Mingjing is a little worse, but He Qingyun, that is definitely an ancestor-level figure, Li Rongcheng can be regarded as a long-lived person, and he is only eighty-three years old this year, but He Qingyun is at least one Jiazi older than him.
In terms of age alone, Li Rongcheng is extremely respectful to He Qingyun.
If other people see such a banquet, they must think how important it is, but in fact, this is just an ordinary reception banquet, as the protagonists, Xiao Shan and Situ Wan'er are naturally also present, in addition to them, Li Wenqian and Wang Xuanmei must also be there, Changqing Dao people don't need to ask and occupy a seat, although this table is big, so many people have already accounted for half of it, and who will participate in the remaining seats naturally needs to be carefully considered.
Under normal circumstances, even if Xiao Shan came, it would be impossible to get him any reception banquet, but now not only has he done it, but the specifications are extremely high, and the Li family doesn't know how many people want to participate in this reception banquet.
But only a handful of people can sit at the table.
Xiao Shan had already met Li Rongcheng before, and the other party was Xiao Shan's own grandfather, so he naturally wanted to meet him. And Li Rongcheng is also very kind to Xiao Shan, after all, Xiao Shan is his own grandson, and he has only seen him for the first time for so long, of course, he is close in his heart, and there is a trace of guilt.
Compared with the other children of the Li family, Xiao Shan's growth did not receive any shelter and help from the Li family, but Xiao Shan's achievements are incomparable to others.
What kind of character is Li Rongcheng? He can naturally see that He Qingyun and Zen Master Mingjing came to the Li family for Xiao Shan's sake this time, and this is to support Xiao Shan, what a big face. I can invite these two people, just thinking about it feels incredible.
A meal can be said to be enjoyable for the guests and hosts, but only they know what is going on in their hearts.
Li Rongcheng is nothing in the actual mountain, as the helmsman of the Li family, he naturally had to think about the Li family in the past, but he is also a father and a grandfather. Li Wenqian and Xiao Shan are both his descendants, how can he not kiss each other if he breaks his bones and connects his tendons? He is very glad that he can take this opportunity to get Li Wenqian and Xiao Shan back. In this way, he can also feel at ease after a hundred years.
It's just that the only thing that makes Li Rongcheng uncomfortable is that Li Wenqian's condition, although Li Rongcheng is also seriously ill, but he is old after all. What does it matter if you live a few more years and a few years less?
But Li Wenqian is still young, and he should not have suffered from an incurable disease so early. This is also the biggest regret in Li Rongcheng's heart, he doesn't want white-haired people to send black-haired people, especially his own son who has been away from home for 16 years.
After the reception banquet, he Qingyun and Zen Master Mingjing were sent away, Li Rongcheng called Xiao Shan, the grandfather and grandson were alone in the same room, the old man got Xiao Shan some tea, and then stared at Xiao Shan.
Xiao Shan didn't say anything, just let Li Rongcheng look at it.
After a long time, the old man said: "Okay, very good, this is the grandson who is most like me, your brothers, brothers and sisters in the family, others say they are excellent, but you are much stronger than them, without the help of the power of the family, you can have this kind of achievement, this is my Li Rongcheng's grandson." ”
Xiao Shan smiled helplessly, and secretly said that this old man estimated that he had checked his bottom clearly, but fortunately, he seemed to be quite satisfied with himself.
Similarly, Xiao Shan has no hatred for this grandfather who met for the first time, he knows that as the helmsman, sometimes he can't help himself, at least this time he returned to the Li family, the old man has no opinion, and he tries to make up for his father and himself.
As long as his father didn't complain about this kind of thing, Xiao Shan naturally wouldn't say anything.
"Why, don't you call me grandpa?" Li Rongcheng asked at this time
A sentence.
Xiao Shan didn't answer directly, but said with a smile: "You haven't been in good shape recently, you should rest more, if there is nothing else, I want to go and see my father." ”
Li Rongcheng's expression was a little gloomy, and he sighed and said: "It seems that you still have some complaints in your heart, which is also right, it is not normal if you don't complain, this matter is not right for your grandfather, it's just that your father, grandpa tried his best and there was no better treatment plan, even if your grandfather made a move, it was a lack of skills, you should go and accompany your father more." ”
Xiao Shan's grandfather is Wang Xuanmei's father, the Wang family is also a big family, and it is a well-known medical family in China.
Li Rongcheng's original intention was to let Xiao Shan accompany Li Wenqian more, because Li Wenqian's time was short, Xiao Shan naturally heard it, but he smiled, and then said: "Don't worry, my father is fine." ”
Waiting for Xiao Shan to leave, Li Rongcheng reacted to the meaning of Xiao Shan's words, what Xiao Shan said was fine, it was definitely not a comforting word, and it was not like nonsense, there must be something greasy in it.
tomato
Li Rongcheng thought of a possibility, but he didn't ask much, just told everyone in the Li family not to provoke Xiao Shan, let alone disturb him.
Qingyunguan He Qingyun and Lingbao Temple Mingjing Zen Master personally came to support Xiao Shan, the Li family now basically knows, coupled with Li Rongcheng's order, even if there is someone who originally planned to do something to Xiao Shan, they have to restrain at this time, because they know that Xiao Shan is not a soft persimmon, and if one is not careful, he is likely to play with fire and set himself on fire.
Besides, Xiaoshan is in the Li family, and he really relies on Li Wenqian, and Li Wenqian has a terminal illness, which is also a well-known thing, as long as Li Wenqian dies, Xiaoshan's good days will come to an end.
So they are all waiting, waiting for Li Wenqian to return to heaven.
But apparently they are going to be disappointed, greatly disappointed.
And the original idea of wanting to regain what he had lost before for his father at the family meeting was actually immature and unnecessary, besides, that reception banquet had actually achieved its goal, and after that, who would dare to underestimate Li Wenqian and Xiaoshan?
