The daily life of a talented young husband who travels through a book and suffers from cruelty

Chapter 157 Half Mask and Celebration Banquet

Hearing this, Li Xiaodao smiled and said, "What is Boss Wan doing so politely, doing things with money? This is what I should do."

Wan Yushan quickly shook his head and said: "Don't get me wrong, I sincerely invite you to this celebration banquet, I have heard about your affairs in Anzhou, you and Mr. Li, both of you are my distinguished guests, and you and Mr. Pei must come together on February rd. It's just that no one else can do as well as you in translating the Fan language, so I can only trouble you."

Li Xiaodao smiled and nodded, "I know! I'll tell my husband after I get back."

Li Xiaodao thought for a while, and then asked: "Boss Wan, what kind of banquet is your celebration banquet? Is it just hosting a lot of banquets and everyone eating and drinking?"

Wan Yushan laughed loudly and said, "That's roughly the case, but in order not to make the guests feel vulgar, I also made some arty things. The Zhuangzi place is bigger than Jingdeshan here, and not only will there be all kinds of rare things in it Dishes, snacks, wine, candied snacks, guests can chat with each other at will, get to know each other, and eat and drink by themselves when thirsty or hungry. When the time comes, enjoy the plum blossoms and scenery, listen to music and singing, and drink and write poems that scholars like. There is a place, if you want to practice martial arts, there is also a school for horseback riding and archery, and you can go hunting in the back mountain if you are bored, I hope you have fun!"

Good guy, Li Xiaodao said in his heart after hearing this, isn't this just a high-end party?
And it's bigger than the other courtyard in Jingde Mountain, so how big is Zhuangzi?
"Oh... well..." Li Xiaodao sighed in his heart and hurriedly replied, "Does that mean you have to have an invitation to enter?"

Wan Yushan smiled and said: "Others are, you don't need Miss Li, you have that waist card, you can come in and out as you like."

"Then what if I want to bring more people?" Li Xiaodao asked again.

Wan Yushan replied: "With that waist card, Miss Li can bring as many people as she wants."

Li Xiaodao touched his waist, this brand turned out to be so easy to use.

"I see. When will the celebration banquet start on February rd?"

Wan Yushan laughed and said: "Young lady Li can go anytime, and the food is the flowing water mat, even if you go early in the morning, you will have breakfast."

Is this the power of silver? Li Xiaodao felt that the door to a new world had been opened again today.

After thinking about it, Wan Yushan added: "And when the time comes, Miss Li might meet old acquaintances."

Li Xiaodao wondered: "Old acquaintance? Who is it?"

"You'll know when the time comes!" Wan Yushan laughed.

Boss Wan is a joke, Li Xiaodao is not entangled, anyway, we will see each other when the time comes, so don't worry.She suddenly thought of a more crucial question, and hurriedly asked: "Boss Wan, I want to ask... Are there any officials from the capital among the guests you invited?"

Wan Yushan was a little puzzled: "Officials from the capital? Well, let me think about it... no? At most, they came from the capital to run errands for the masters. They are not considered officials. What's the matter? Why does Miss Li ask this question? "

Li Xiaodao hurriedly replied: "No, it's nothing, I just asked casually, I am more afraid of being an official, so I asked."

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, seeing that Wan Yushan was fine, Li Xiaodao was relieved, and after talking for a while, he got up and said goodbye.

After returning home that day, after dinner, the family sat chatting at the table in the main room, and Li Xiaodao told the family about Wan Yushan's invitation.

Pei Zhiqi didn't reply after hearing this, but Mother Pei spoke first.

"Xiaodao, Qi'er can't go to such a place now."

Li Xiaodao looked at his mother's worried face, and she explained: "Mother, I asked Boss Wan if there are any officials from the capital, and he said no, there are only some people from the capital to run errands for the masters, so it shouldn't matter."

Mother Pei just shook her head and sighed, "It's not that mother made things difficult for you, it's really..."

Father Pei didn't speak, but when he heard the discussion, he just finished his cup of tea, got up and went to the backyard.

Pei Zhiqi said, "Did mother and father get any news?"

For the past few days, Pei Zhiqi always felt that his parents had something to hide from them, but after thinking about it, it was better to ask clearly.

I didn't expect my son to ask so directly. Mother Pei was speechless for a while, and said after a long time: "Anyway, I can't go to this celebration banquet."

Pei Zhiqi sighed softly: "The mother still refuses to explain to the child, who is the enemy's family in the capital?"

Mother Pei just sighed and shook her head, but didn't speak.

Li Xiaodao also didn't know what to say for a while, the atmosphere was awkward, what should I do.

And Boss Wan said that he hoped that both her and Xianggong could be there.

Is there no way?
She used her brain to think and think, and suddenly came up with a solution.

"Mother, Xianggong, I thought of a way, wait a minute!" After saying that, Li Xiaodao hurriedly trotted up to the second floor, lit the lamp, and then went downstairs to find something.

She returned to the table in the main room, shook the things in her hands, and said with a smile: "Mother, it doesn't matter if Xianggong wears this! Boss Wan said that he hopes that both Xianggong and I can go. If Xianggong doesn't go, there are many Fanren, if I see a woman who is alone... I will be very troublesome! And everyone knows that my husband and I often go together. On such occasions, the master and wife go together. If I go alone, I will not know in the future What will be passed on will also affect the reputation of Xianggong. For scholars, reputation is very important!"

What Li Xiaodao held in his hand was a half-mask that the Japanese pirates bought while playing with his husband in the market before they came.

Pei Zhiqi smiled and shook his head slightly when he saw the lady working hard, feeling distressed and guilty.

Mother Pei looked at the things in Li Xiaodao's hands, then at Pei Zhiqi, and sighed, "Okay! If you have to go, then put this on, and remember not to take it off until you go home. It's just that Qier wears it. Will this be too conspicuous?"

Li Xiaodao smiled and said: "No, I will find some people to wear it with my husband! Make sure he won't be too conspicuous."

Li Xiaodao handed the half mask to Pei Zhiqi's hand, and said with a smile, "Hurry up and try it, Mr. Xiang! I forgot how I wore it last time, and I want to see it again."

Pei Zhiqi held the mask in his hand, and smiled at Li Xiaodao: "What new idea did my lady come up with?"

Li Xiaodao stood up, paced around the table and said: "I bought some more beautiful masks at the market these days, and then asked Xiao Xizi to give them to Ke Lina and his friends for me. They'll be delighted to put on their masks for the celebration party!"

Mother Pei finally smiled slightly: "That's good, it shouldn't be a big problem."

Seeing that Xianggong was only holding the mask but refused to wear it all the time, Li Xiaodao said again: "Shouldn't you practice at home first, Xianggong? You might not get used to wearing it for so long that day."

Pei Zhiqi stood up with a smile on the corner of his mouth, he nodded slightly to Pei's mother and said, "Mother, I'll go upstairs and try to wear it."

Mother Pei nodded: "Go."

After saying hello to his mother, Pei Zhiqi took the mask and went upstairs. Li Xiaodao also bowed to Pei's mother, and then went upstairs behind the husband.

"Sanggong, put it on and let me see it! Hurry up!" She smiled as she went upstairs.
