The master comes down the mountain: I don’t want to be a son-in-law
Chapter 1004 Cutting Suckling Pig
The Li family's banquet was packed with people, and almost all the celebrities in the capital were present. However, everyone is not here to eat, but to see the excitement and the direction of the wind. The most important thing is, they want to see, who will everyone send to the West? Is the Li family still number one in the capital?
Hou Qigui was waiting at the door, greeting the guests.
"Master Marquis!" A warm and familiar voice sounded, "Congratulations, Master Marquis, and congratulations to the Li family. This is a petty thing for our Wang family, and it is not respectful!"
The one who came was Wang Baishun. He and Hou Qigui were old friends.
"Hey, Mr. Xi, come as soon as you come. What gifts do you bring?" Hou Qigui returned the gift with a smile on his face, but his eyes were a bit unhappy, "Why haven't you seen the uncle?"
The uncle Hou Qigui was talking about was Wang Baichuan, the head of the Wang family and Wang Baishun's eldest brother.
It's not that Wang Baichuan had to come in person for such an occasion, but the Wang family only sent Wang Baishun, and not even Wang Baichuan's son came, so there was a problem with their attitude.
Although Wang Baishun is senior, everyone in the capital knows that he is a stubborn leader and does not hold real power within the Wang family. Besides, he has a special relationship with the Li family. Maybe it was his own idea to come here today.
"My eldest brother is not in good health, so he asked me to say hello to Mrs. Li." Wang Baishun laughed to ease the embarrassment, "I have told my eldest brother a long time ago that I have to delegate power to young people. You said you are so old, but you still After working so hard, how many years can this body last, and I don’t know how to enjoy the blessings.”
"Yes, yes, Master Xi is right. It's time to think about happiness. Master Xi, please come in!" Hou Qigui welcomed Wang Baishun in.
As soon as Wang Baishun arrived, the wealthy and famous people in the capital probably understood the attitude of the Wang family.
In the twenty years from the fall of the Li family to the appearance of Li Muchen, the Wang family's song was number one in the capital. The Wang family must be uncomfortable and unconvinced by the Li family's re-emergence, but they can't help it, Li Muchen is too strong.
Next, it depends on the attitudes of the other three companies. If, like the Wang family, everyone in Mingxi really wants to unite to fight against the Li family, then there may be a big drama in the capital in the future.
Who doesn't like to watch the excitement?
As long as the fire doesn't burn them, people don't take it too seriously, and the atomic bomb explosion can be regarded as a joke.
The other three also arrived soon.
The person coming from the Chu family is Chu Yao.
This makes sense. After all, Chu Yao is Chu Zhenqing's biological daughter, and she was once wanted to be groomed as his successor. However, the elders in the family were opposed to it because she was a girl, and the old man still had the old idea that a woman should not be a householder. concept.
But Chu Yao still firmly controls the family's energy and automobile business, and is still a strong contender for the future heir. In the past two years, her brother Chu Zhe has once again overshadowed her.
It is well known that Chu Yao has a close relationship with the Li family. The story of Li Muchen and Lin Manqing buying a car at her club spread throughout the capital, and it is still a topic of conversation among the second generation.
Therefore, Chu Yao's appearance cannot explain the Chu family's attitude.
But the next person coming from the Xiao family is worth pondering.
Logically speaking, the Xiao family has the best relationship with the Li family in the West University. At this time, a heavyweight should be sent to express their attitude, just like back then, Xiao Sheng personally came forward to support Li Muchen.
But this time, a woman came to the Xiao family, named Xiao Yu.
Although they are both women, Xiao Yu and Chu Yao are completely different. Chu Yao is the daughter of the head of the family, a strong competitor for the future head of the family, and holds real power. But Xiao Yu is just the niece of Xiao Gongmo, the contemporary head of the Xiao family. She is not an important figure in the Xiao family and only runs an entertainment company.
And the person who came from that house was also a woman, the wife of the current head of the house, Na Ruping.
"Master Marquis, long time no see!" The lady's enthusiasm floated over from afar, and she directed the servants to move things from the car, "Come on, come on, put it here, be careful not to damage it."
"That madam." Hou Qigui was still smiling, "Why haven't you seen the head of the family?"
"Hey, it was my Ruping who was coming, but I heard that Mr. Li didn't come and it was Mrs. Li who came. So I told my Ruping, don't go. You, a big man, went to meet Mrs. Li. If you have anything to say, you might as well go with me, I can still chat with my wife in the boudoir, don’t you think so, Lord Marquis?"
The wife's words were impeccable, but people knew in their hearts that they were just excuses.
"Okay, Madam, please come in." Hou Qigui still had a smile on his face.
The people of the Xi family were all here, but three women and a stubborn master came. These wealthy families in the capital all smelled a bit of disharmony.
"If I had known I wouldn't come, I would have sent someone to deliver a gift." Someone said.
"Everyone in the West dares to do this, so do you?"
"I don't dare, but who knows what will happen in the future? What if the Li family loses power and the Western family turns around and settles with us?"
"Isn't it?"
Time passed little by little, but the banquet was still delayed, and Lin Manqing never showed up.
People became restless.
"Master Hou, when will the banquet start?" someone shouted.
The people from the Western Family were at the main table, and Hou Qigui accompanied him with a smile. When someone asked, he stood up and said, "Everyone, please be patient. Before starting a banquet, the ancients would kill animals and pray to heaven and earth. Today is a great day." On the same day, we will also bring a pig and perform a ceremony. Of course the banquet cannot be held before the pig comes."
"It turns out that we are waiting for roasted suckling pigs. The Marquis told me earlier, so I asked someone to deliver them. I have as many as you want." A restaurant owner said.
His idea is correct. In the southern Guangdong and Hong Kong area, when opening a business or moving to a new house, the suckling pig must be cut. The boss takes a knife and cuts the suckling pig from the head to the tail, which means cutting (making money) from head to tail.
But people always find it a bit strange. This is the capital city, so things don't seem to be popular, and behind Hou Qigui's smile, there is always a chill that makes people's skin crawl.
Moreover, Lin Manqing hasn't come out yet. Isn't this a bit too big?
Just then, I heard a shout: "The pigs are coming!"
The hall door was pushed open with a bang, and a group of people walked in.
Li Axi walked at the front, with a sullen face and murderous intent.
Behind him, a Westerner followed, carrying a door panel with a pig tied tightly to it.
Oh no, it's a person.
It's just that this man is too fat, fatter than a pig.
Behind them, two people walked side by side. One was white and fat, with his hands in his sleeves. He smiled at everyone, as if he had just picked up money; the other had a sullen face, sharp eyes, and a smile on his waist. With a kitchen knife on his shoulder.
They came to the center of the hall and threw the door panel to the ground.
Li Asi then walked to Hou Qigui to ask for help.
"Master Marquis, Feixi has brought it."
