The next day.

In the early morning, under the urging of the cockcrow, the sun stretched its arms lazily, smiling and shooting out the first ray of light.

"hurry up."

"Liuzi, are your things ready?"

"Not yet."

"Anan, is the donkey cart here?"

"I'll go out and take a look."

"Go quickly."

"Xiaoyu, have all your people arrived?"

"No---I don't know."

...

At this time, there was a chaos inside Zuixianju, with footsteps and shouts coming and going, making it very lively.

Wu Furong stood in front of the door, shouting and hurriedly directing everyone. This was the first time in his life to hold a barbecue party. He had no experience at all, so he was in such a mess now.

"Why hasn't Mr. Li come yet?"

Wu Furong began to feel a little powerless. He raised his eyes and looked at the street, thinking that if Li Qi were here, he might not be so panicked.

After a while, Li Qi finally appeared on Bianhe Street. He was seen riding the calm donkey alone, followed by Aunt Chen and seven or eight aunts who worked in the Qin Mansion.

This time at the barbecue party, Zuixianju really came out in full force.

"Master Li, you are finally here."

Wu Furong finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Li Qilai, but he didn't see Mrs. Qin, so he asked curiously: "Huh? Isn't Mrs. Qin here?"

When Li Qi heard this, he looked depressed and shook his head and said: "From what I said last night to now, Madam just refuses to come. Forget it, there is a red slave at home with her, so it should be fine."

Wu Furong nodded slightly.

Li Qi glanced into the store and saw the bartenders running around in a disorderly manner. He frowned secretly and asked, "Uncle Wu, how are you preparing?"

Wu Furong sighed and glanced at Li Qi resentfully.

This look made Li Qi tremble, and he understood, and immediately went in to organize everyone. He first asked Xiaoyu to direct the bartenders to help Wu Xiaoliu and the others load the food needed for the barbecue later into the car, and then asked Aunt Chen to direct the rest of the party.

The uncles and aunties who got off the bus went to load the tools that would be used later into the car, and asked Chen Anan to watch at the door. Don't let others fish in troubled waters.

After this division of labor, the originally chaotic scene suddenly became more orderly.

When preparations were almost complete, the regular patrons who had been invited arrived one after another.

In fact, these regular patrons are basically gold members. Of course, there are quite a few people who did not come.

This was something Li Qi expected.

At this moment, a carriage suddenly stopped in front of Zuixianju, and soon, Bai Qiannuo and Xing'er got out of the carriage.

"Uncle Wu. Brother Li."

Li Qi smiled slightly and said: "Qiniang, you are here."

Bai Qiannuo nodded and said, "Brother Li, do you need my help?"

Li Qi smiled and said, "Yes, just eat more later."

Bai Qiannuo felt very sweet after hearing this. She looked around and said, "Isn't Sister Wang here?"

Li Qi smiled bitterly and said, "You still don't know your sister Wang. With so many people showing off, can she come?"

After hearing this, Bai Qiannuo understood immediately. He rolled his eyes at Li Qi and feigned anger: "I don't allow you to say that to Sister Wang. She doesn't want to come, so she has her reasons."

"Okay, okay, I won't say."

Li Qi chuckled and said, "As long as you come."

Bai Qiannuo's face turned red, and she glanced at Xing'er and Wu Furong anxiously. Seeing that there was no difference between them, she felt relieved. She raised her mouth and gave Li Qi a sidelong glance.

Li Qi smiled and thought to himself, actually being sneaky is quite interesting.

Suddenly I heard the sound of horse hoofbeats in the distance. I turned around and saw four or five talented men in gorgeous clothes riding towards us from a distance. The leader was Song Yuchen, wearing brocade clothes and a jade belt, and a white horse under his crotch.

Ma, who was extremely handsome, was chatting animatedly with the fat man in blue robe on his left. Li Qi knew this fat man, it was Zou Zijian.

Seeing Song Yuchen's arrogant appearance, Li Qi felt quite disdainful. The person riding the white horse may not necessarily be a talented person, but may also be a loser.

"Qian Nuo."

When Song Yuchen saw Bai Qiannuo also there, he was immediately elated, jumped off his horse in a hurry, and shouted with a diligent look on his face.

Bai Qiannuo quickly glanced at Li Qi beside him and saw that there was nothing strange on his face, and then saluted Song Yuchen.

As everyone knows, in Li Qi's mind, how can an idiot like Song Yuchen, who picks up girls, be called a love rival? At best, he is just a useless embroidered pillow.

"Master Song."

Li Qi cupped his hands towards Song Yuchen, then cupped his hands towards Zou Zijian and said with a smile, "Brother, I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you doing lately?"

When Bai Qiannuo heard this title, he almost laughed out loud.

A flash of resentment flashed in Zou Zijian's eyes, and he said with a smile: "Master Li, you are fine."

Song Yuchen also nodded and said hello: "Master Li, shopkeeper Wu."

At this moment, a cry suddenly came from the left, "Brother Li, Xiao Jiu is here too,"

Everyone hurriedly turned around and saw Hong Tianjiu and Gao Yanei riding a black horse and a white horse respectively, rushing towards this side, followed by Zhou Hua and Xu Fei, chasing each other as if they were chasing each other.

race.

Pedestrians on the road dodged left and right one after another, and they were in a panic for a while.

What Li Qi saw was frightening. This was a serious case of speeding.

In the blink of an eye, Hong Tianjiu came to Li Qi, tightened the reins, jumped off the horse with a very handsome gesture, strode to Li Qi, patted his chest and said proudly: "Brother Li, look at Xiao Jiu.

How is your riding skills?"

Damn it! I’ve never even ridden a horse, why are you asking me?

Li Qi broke into a cold sweat and said: "Very good, very good."

Gao Yanei arrived shortly afterwards, but did not dismount, and said to Wu Furong with a dissatisfied look on his face: "Shopkeeper Wu, why did you only invite Xiao Jiu to the barbecue party yesterday, but not me? Do you think you are looking down on me?"

As soon as Gao Yanei arrived, he launched an army to investigate the crime. The lively scene suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked at each other in shock.

It turned out that when Wu Furong asked someone to send an invitation letter to Hong Tianjiu yesterday, Gao Yanei happened to be there. Seeing that the bartender at Zui Xianju only invited Hong Tianjiu but didn't say a word to him, he immediately became furious and had to come.

It’s impossible to ask for clarification.

Wu Furong opened his mouth slightly and looked at Gao Yanei blankly. He didn't know how to explain it. Yesterday, he just distributed invitations according to the list of gold members. How could he remember Gao Yanei?

When Li Qi saw it, he stood up and said: "Yameni, please calm down. In fact, this barbecue party is just a temporary decision of my wife, so I may not be able to take care of it at the moment. Uncle Wu asked someone to send invitations, and he also followed the golden rules.

I sent out the list of members, maybe because I was in a hurry, I omitted you in the yamen, I’m really sorry.”

Wu Furong listened and nodded hurriedly in agreement.

Hong Tianjiu suddenly let out a long sigh and said with a smile: "I understand. It turns out that it's because my brother is not a gold member of Zuixianju. So why is Shopkeeper Wu wrong?" He said to Gao Yanei: "

Brother, it seems that Zuixianju has not prepared anything for you, I think you should go back to Fanlou to find Feng Xingshou."

Sweat! This Xiaojiu is really a master who is afraid of chaos in the world.

Li Qi shook his head gently, feeling dumbfounded in his heart. Didn't you deliberately cause trouble for me?

Gao Yanei blushed and said disdainfully: "Isn't it just a gold member? What's so great about it, come here." As he said that, he stretched his hand to the side.

But after a while, no one came over.

When everyone saw it, they were confused about the situation. They didn't know who Gao Yanei was calling.

Hong Tianjiu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly burst into laughter and said, "Brother, Lu Qian and the others are still behind."

This Lu Qian, Li Qi also knew, was an idle guy next to Gao Yanei. They must have been riding too fast, and the idle guys hadn't caught up yet.

Embarrassing. So embarrassing.

Gao Yanei's fair complexion suddenly turned red like a monkey's butt.

The talented people on the side, headed by Song Yuchen, also reacted and burst into laughter.

Gao Yanei glared sideways and shouted angrily: "Why are you laughing?"

"It's so funny."

Song Yuchen opened his paper fan and said disdainfully: "If we laugh at us, what does it have to do with the office?" Then he turned to Zou Zijian and asked: "Zijian, do you know that there is one law in the Song Dynasty that prohibits people from laughing?

."

How could Zou Zijian not understand Song Yuchen's meaning? He pretended to be thoughtful. After a while, he said: "Zijian has little talent and little knowledge. He doesn't remember whether there is a law like this."

"Fat Zou, since you know that you have little talent and little knowledge, why don't you blush at all when others call you a genius? If I were you, I would be angry with anyone who calls me a genius." Hong Tianjiu Station
