Chapter 082: A Hundred Years of Family
This should be the third dinner that Ye Yiyi has accompanied him to.
The first time was the Xu family, and the second time was the reception banquet held by the Gu family for Feng Xiaoxiao.
And this third time is the engagement banquet held by the Xu family.
The protagonist of the engagement banquet is Xu Siya, who has had several encounters with Ye Yiyi.
In Yanjing City, the Xu family is a behemoth.
It is said that in the new century, the Xu family still retains a lot of the customs of the old feudal society, has its own servants and land, the central area of the first ring of Yanjing City, the ancestral hall built on the land that has stood for a hundred years and does not know how many people want belongs to the Xu family.
Every Chinese New Year, the luxury cars parked outside the Xu family ancestral hall are like auto shows, and none of them are worth less than 10 million.
The Xu family's sacrificial activities during the New Year's festival have even become the head of the TV station.
It's a pity that for the Xu family, worshipping ancestors is an extremely important tradition, and people outside the Xu family are never allowed to visit, otherwise that formation alone can become the head of Yanjing City to become a tourist powerhouse.
Those who can receive invitations to any banquet held by the Xu family are all important figures from all walks of life.
When she learned that she was going to enter the Xu family's ancestral house to participate in this banquet, Ye Yiyi almost didn't pop her eyes out.
You must know that even the mayor of this city may not be qualified to enter the ancestral house of the Xu family.
She never thought that she would have anything to do with the Xu family in her lifetime, but now she can actually go to the Xu family's ancestral house?
Ye Yiyi suddenly panicked.
She doesn't know any rules, what if she gets into trouble?
"Don't worry, just stay with me. ”
Li Mingsi saw a thin layer of sweat on her nervous forehead, and he actually thought that this woman's reaction was quite cute.
hugged her waist and got off directly at the gate of the Xu family's ancestral house, and the goal was the dignified and heavy mansion door.
The metal gate full of a sense of age seems to take people back to the dynastic era a hundred years ago, the Xu family is those high-ranking officials and nobles, and the word "Xu Mansion" on the plaque exudes unparalleled solemnity.
Ye Yiyi noticed that there were several luxury cars that stopped at the door, and those people who got off were very cautious when they saw this plaque.
She couldn't help but sneak a glance at the man beside her.
Compared with the seriousness and trepidation of others, Li Mingsi is obviously much more relaxed, and even can learn the origin of the plaque of the Xu family with her.
The origin of the word 'Xu Fu' is not ordinary, this plaque is the first generation of the founding emperor of the dynastic era personally wrote and sent the glory to the Xu family.
After hundreds of years of wind and frost, the plaque is still preserved by the Xu family.
This is a historical testimony that every Xu family is proud of.
No one is allowed to have disrespectful thoughts about this plaque.
After hearing this, Ye Yiyi couldn't help but look up at the plaque again.
Secretly thought, the plaque was given by the emperor of the dynastic era, which seems to sound very awesome, but now it is the new century, and the Qing Dynasty has been dead for a hundred years, and the plaque given by the emperor of the dynastic era will not be so awesome, right?
On the other hand, the Xu family took this plaque so seriously, and it was not because it was given by the emperor, but because he wanted to tell everyone that the Xu family's heritage was too deep.
"Let's go. ”
Li Mingsi took her hand and directly entered the Xu family's old mansion, which was a large ancient building house with an overall area of more than twenty acres.
Vehicles from the outside world can only be parked at the outside entrance.
After entering the gate, you still need to take the Xu family's specific carriage to go to the Xu family's hall to entertain guests.
Horses are a rarity these days.
People who can afford to raise horses are either rich or expensive, not to mention raising so many just to pull a carriage in this mansion.
It really shows the monstrous wealth of the Xu family everywhere.
Even if there is a company with an annual profit of at least 50 million now, Ye Yiyi will inevitably feel her poverty when she sees this.
She probably can't even afford a horse.
Oh, by the way, it's worth mentioning that these horses pulling carriages are not ordinary breeds, but sweat-blooded horses worth a thousand dollars.
In ancient times, these horses were the key strategic materials that decided wars.
And now...... But it was used by the Xu family to pull a carriage.
Ye Yiyi: "......"
It turned out that poverty really limited her thinking.
Sitting in the carriage pulled by the sweaty BMW, she felt as if she was surrounded by a pile of yuan.
"Do you like sweaty BMWs so much?"
Li Mingji stared at her vigorously at the horses pulling the cart, and thought that she liked this breed of horses.
Wrapping his arms around her waist, he said directly: "I'll ask someone to send you a horse when I go back." ”
"Huh?" Ye Yiyi was taken aback. "Do you have a horse too?"
"For the Xu family, it's not a big deal for me to want a horse. ”
Li Mingji brushed the hair that fell from her ear, and said with a nonchalant expression.
Ye Yiyi then remembered that Xu Siya was the man's cousin, that is to say, Li Mingsi's mother was also the Xu family, and this place was strictly speaking, Li Mingsi's foreign family.
It's okay if I don't want to, Ye Yiyi suddenly couldn't calm down when she thought about it.
She asked nervously, "Won't it?" Is the Xu family your relative?"
"I just remembered to ask this now?" Li Mingji couldn't help but smile, "It's my grandparents' house, and they will also attend Siya's engagement banquet today." ”
"What?" Ye Yiyi almost jumped up in shock, and shouted, "Why didn't you tell me earlier!"
She hurriedly looked at her dress, today's dress was not the kind of one-shoulder, the neck was partially covered by white lace, but if you looked closely, she could still see the mark left by the man on her neck just now.
She glared at him plaintively, "It's too much, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Without any preparation, he was pulled over, and he might face the grandparents of the big money owner.
Thinking about the scene of that Shura field, she couldn't help but grab the man's sleeve and said, "Send me back, I'm not feeling well." ”
"The Xu family has a special personal doctor, and they are all very powerful imperial doctors, if you are not feeling well, I will ask them to come and see you later. ”
Li Mingsi pretended not to see her thoughts, but opened his mouth seriously.
Ye Yiyi bit her lip and glared at him angrily: "You are too much!"
"What are you afraid of? Don't you want to see my grandparents so much?" Li Mingsi chuckled, and said with a rare hint: "I still feel that I have done something bad and dare not see them?"
"What can I do to be sorry?" Ye Yiyi glared at him angrily, feeling that he was really miserable.
Why did you fall in love with such an angry neurosis, not to mention, this person is still going to die of himself!
If it weren't for the fact that there were more people around at this time, she would have kept it to make this guy look good!
Hum!
Ye Yiyi turned her head angrily and stopped looking at the man's smiling face, otherwise she was really afraid that she would not be able to help but slap it!
"Calm down, you have to be calm, Ye Yiyi! Isn't it the grandparents of the big money owner? It's not a big bad wolf who eats people, and I haven't done anything wrong, why should I be so nervous?"
Sitting in the carriage, Ye Yiyi took a deep breath and secretly relieved her emotions in her heart.
However, when she finally arrived at the place where the guests were entertained, she was almost shocked by the Xu family's generosity again, and couldn't help but close to herself.
What kind of synagogue is this fairy-like hall for entertaining guests?
The huge yard has an area of thousands of square meters, at this time it is dressed up like a fairyland on earth, it is obviously a hot summer, but here it is stunned to feel less than half a minute of heat, the flowers of different seasons compete in the flower garden not far away, and the white mist slowly rises.
