The big rivers and lakes that attack

Chapter 653
In the early morning of the next day, "New Year's Day", Li Dao frowned slightly after learning the results of the Great Council. The bloody storm he imagined did not appear.

Secretly sighed, that eldest son's hands were too soft.

But I also heard that after Old Ancestor Hong participated in that big meeting, Li Dao pondered for a moment, and then he figured out the reason.

Early in the morning, he casually threw a few tin balls for firecrackers, and ignored such things.

Ask Xiao Chu to invite the Banshan Gate on the other side of the main city to get together tonight and talk about things. It's a farewell banquet.

Not long after Xiaochu left, Hong Yinglong came to the door and sent an invitation from Sifang. He asked Li Dao and others to spend time in Sifang's mansion to express his gratitude.

Then such invitations were sent continuously on this day, there were those with big houses, those with four houses, those with sixteen houses, etc., as well as private invitations from several ministers.

Li Dao accepted with a smile.

There are many banquets, but there must be a first-come, first-served basis.

The first one to go to the banquet was Liufang's side. Early in the morning on the third day of the first lunar month, Li Dao went to Liufang's official residence.

He was entertained by Hong Qi and his wife Hua Ruiting. The scene where Li Dao was looking forward to meeting the eldest son and the owner of the sixth house, Hong Zhide, did not appear.

Red Two and Pink Three never came.

What's more impressive is that Hua Ruiting, the sixth wife's wife, cooks for herself and cooks some delicious dishes. By the way, she also said: "This is a family feast, Haoran, don't be cautious, baby."

Li Dao said: "Madam, you are welcome..."

But I was thinking in my heart, this culinary skill is far worse than that of Lao Zhu.

But Yin Suyan was flattered, holding a bowl of rice, she didn't know what to do.

Hong Qi was much more natural, and while picking up vegetables, he said: "Mother's cooking is delicious..." By the way, he also picked up food for Yin Suyan: "Try this, this is Mother's specialty, boss, You also try..."

Li Dao smiled, nodded his chopsticks, and said, "Thank you, Auntie."

Started to eat the "private food" of the sixth wife in silence.

After dinner, Hua Ruiting sent Ah Qi and Yin Suyan away, and asked Li Dao to accompany her for a walk to digest food.

The two were walking casually in a certain garden, talking about some boring things, such as Mrs. Liufang would ask, how old are you this year, where is your home, are your parents still there?When was the sword master bestowing the half-mountain card...and so on.

Li Dao replied casually, saying that his parents died early and he was single, in short, it was the way he fooled Gu Qingshan back then.

At a certain moment, Mrs. Liufang stopped such boring topics, turned around, up and down, and seriously began to look at Li Dao.

After a while, he nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Good figure, good appearance, good temperament."

Li Dao was silent and did not answer.

Hua Ruiting smiled and said, "I have given birth to seven babies, four girls, and three boys. They are all my heart."

Excuse me, are they gourd babies... Li Dao secretly complained.

"As a mother, I thank you, thank you for helping Qiwa, thank you for saving Qiwa's life, and even calling Qiwa a wife, thank you."

Hua Ruiting said this very sincerely.

Li Dao smiled and said: "Madam can't be like this, it's just a coincidence, even without me, Ah Qi will not have any accidents, come to think of it, the owner of the sixth house has already made arrangements, hasn't it?"

The beautiful woman showed a bitter smile, and said: "How can there be so many arrangements, it is a devil, and it is another room's scheme, under such chaos, no matter how many arrangements are made, if my baby is not careful, it will fall ..."

She shook her head, did not continue, and sighed slightly, showing her bitterness and helplessness.

Li Dao didn't say much, just hummed lightly.

Then, the beautiful woman changed the subject, and asked with a smile: "Hao Ran, tell me the truth, were you born in the 'Duke Mansion'?"

Li Dao shook his head and said, "Although they are all surnamed Li, I have nothing to do with them."

"That's good..."

The beautiful woman's smile became stronger, and she said: "Then I will believe you. Since you are not from Duke Li's mansion, you are innocent. I intend to recruit you as my son-in-law. I have given birth to four daughters. You see Which one, tell me."

Upon hearing this, Li Dao immediately became solemn, and said in a deep voice, "Thanks to Madam for being wrongly loved, but now Haoran has his own lover, so..."

"Is that girl named Jiang Wan?"

The beautiful woman interrupted him, smiled and said: "It's just good looking, a nameless white from a small sect, you can keep her outside, or even take her as a concubine, my daughter doesn't mind .”

"You are also a capable child. A capable boy will be liked by many females. It's normal. My female child doesn't care how many concubines you have, but the first wife must be my female child."

Mrs. Liufang said this as a matter of course, but Li Dao just smiled and remained silent.

After she finished speaking, Li Dao smiled and said, "I'm sorry for disappointing Madam. I've never been different in my life. Thank you for your kindness."

Hua Ruiting was stunned for a moment, and then said in a deep voice, "Don't regret it!"

"It's still the same sentence, I will never be dissatisfied in my life, Wan'er is enough, and I can't hold other women in my heart."

Li Dao said so, and then said: "I know what the consequences of my refusal are, Madam, you must be unhappy in your heart, maybe I will lose the friendship of Liu Fang."

"But these are not important. What is important is my bottom line and persistence. Similarly, I also believe in Ming Tang's reputation. Ma'am, I will leave!"

Li Dao turned around with a polite smile, and left the Liufang mansion.

Looking at the background of his departure, Hua Ruiting was a little stunned, but full of admiration, and then sighed in distress.

In the evening, Hong Zhide returned to the mansion and asked about it.

Hua Ruiting shook her head and said, "I've never been different in my life, and I only have a girl in my heart. I don't like our girl."

Hong Zhide said with a smile: "Is it just like me who has the same color in life?"

Hua Ruiting said angrily: "He is much better than you. When you were young, you had so many beauties. This kid loves only one. How do you compare with him?"

Hong Zhide smiled and said: "One in a hundred, decades of time, you are the only one who makes me stand out. If I met you earlier, how could I be so absurd when I was young?"

"You old enemy."

"You little boy...you can give me a baby."

"Don't make trouble, old couple..."

Hua Ruiting complained: "I'm thinking about my three girl dolls now, why did I fall in love with a man? Where is his lover's flesh? Besides, why should he look down on my girl dolls? Which man is lecherous? Why is he? He is still in love all his life?"
