After a while, when Xu Damao figured out the inside story, he was immediately stunned.
"Li Wuwei doesn't do things like this. He stole Jia Dongxu's partner and even stole the guests of his wedding.
If the entire academy prepared a banquet for Li Wuwei, then the Jia family would not be able to invite anyone.”
Xu Damao felt that his morals had collapsed. He should at least have a conscience.
"Damao, stop howling here. Go wash the vegetables and wait for your dad to come back so that we can eat.”
Mother Xu stuffed the basket into her son's hands. What does Jia Dongxu's misfortune have to do with you?
"Oh, okay!"
Xu Damao quickly went to wash the vegetables. He had to please his mother so that he could find a wife for him.
……
The He family in the middle court!
Li Wuwei had already arrived and saw He Daqing drinking alone. There wasn't even a plate of peanuts on the table.
"Yo, I'm drinking."
He Daqing looked up and frowned." Li Wuwei, what are you doing here? Are you trying to make a fool of me?"”
He Daqing was at the lowest point of his life. Ever since the widow, Bai Hehua, ran away, he had not been able to find a job for a long time.
Just relying on Shazhu's salary was not enough to feed three people. Rainwater was still studying.
Every day, he was using all the money he had saved up. If this continued, he would lose everything sooner or later. How would he be able to find a wife in the future?
"You can't say that. I'll hold a banquet tomorrow to send an invitation to Uncle He.”
Li Wuwei said as he handed the invitation over. This was a joyous occasion, and he still had to ask someone to do something. No matter what, his attitude should be better.
"You actually called me uncle?"
After He Daqing received the invitation, he was a little confused." The Jia family has already invited me. I can't go to your family.”
"You really can't go?"
Li Wuwei had already boasted to Yan Bugui and thought that he had helped He Daqing before. How could he not handle this person?
"I really can't go. The Jia family treated us first, so you're late.”
He Daqing was angry. Last time at the entrance of Fengze Garden, he had choked quite badly.
"Uncle He, you have to come to my house tomorrow and bring Silly Zhu to help me prepare the banquet for free.”
Li Wuwei sat down and handed him a cigarette.
"Li Wuwei, you want to threaten me with selling buns? I told you, my family was selling buns for people back then, not a merchant.”
He Daqing's expression was ugly, but he still took the cigarette and lit it. Recently, in order to save money, he did not dare to buy cigarettes to smoke.
Who knew that Li Wuwei would shake his head and say," It's not about Steamed Bun. It's because I saw your long-lost younger brother. He's your biological younger brother. He looks exactly like you."”
"What? I have a younger brother. Why didn't I know?”
He Daqing was dumbfounded. Did she have to make up such an exaggerated lie just to get him to help with the kitchen?
"Believe me, that day, I came out of Fengze Garden for a meal and went for a walk on Qianmen Street.
On the road, I saw a tricycle driver who looked exactly like you. Not to mention your brother, people would believe that he was a twin.”
Li Wuwei paused for a moment and said,"Help me prepare the wine, and I'll help you find your brother."”
"Are you serious?"
He Daqing tried to recall what had happened. He was a widow, and his father had run away with the widow. Could it be that his father had really given him a half-brother?
"How can I lie to you about this? Aren't you looking for a job? There are many opportunities in Qianmen Street, and the salary is high.
Find your brother and let him help you find a job. With so many people in your family, you won't have to worry about being bullied in the future.
Also, you're the most senior in the Old He family. You have the obligation to let your brother acknowledge his ancestors.”
Li Wuwei took a puff of his cigarette. If He Daqing still didn't agree, he still had other plans. He just didn't want to make the situation too ugly on the big day.
"Alright, I'll get you a drink for free, but you have to say that you gave me five yuan and help me find my brother.”
He Daqing felt that this kid's words were a little harsh, but they made sense.
"No problem. Remember to bring the gifts. After dinner, I'll call Third Uncle, you, and Silly Zhu to my house to discuss the banquet.”
Li Wuwei saw that they had reached an agreement and didn't stay any longer.
As soon as he went out, he saw Silly Zhu coming back.
"Li Wuwei, what are you doing in my house?”
Silly Zhu didn't like this kid, he was bullying Sister Qin.
"You'll know later."
Li Wuwei didn't talk much with Silly Zhu. With Silly Zhu's current cooking skills, he couldn't hold the banquet alone.
"Virtuous!"
Shazhu took a bite. When he returned to the house, he saw his father smoking. He wanted one, but he was afraid of being beaten.
"Dad, why did Li Wuwei come to our house?”
"Oh, he's having a wedding banquet tomorrow. He invited me over to help and gave me five yuan.”
He Daqing replied casually, pretending to accept the money.
"He wants to hold a banquet! Did the sun rise from the west? Can he be rich?"
Silly Zhu felt that the kid didn't treat Sister Qin that well. He couldn't understand for a moment.
Li Wuwei had gone to the front yard to talk to Yan Bugui about the situation, but he didn't see him. Instead, he waited for his wife.
"Brother, come pick me up."
Qin Huairu was overjoyed to see her man the moment she entered the courtyard house.
"Yes, I just finished my work and was about to pick you up. Let's go home first. I'll tell you slowly.”
Just in time, he brought his wife home.
When they reached the kitchen, Qin Huairu busied herself with kneading dough and cooking. Li Wuwei sat on a small stool and watched as the others busied themselves. Occasionally, he would stir up some chaos to add some fun to life.
"Brother, don't mess around. I'll give it to you later. I'm cooking.”
Qin Huairu turned around and gave him a resentful look.
"Alright then!"
Li Wuwei also stopped and started talking about serious matters." Huai Ru, our family's banquet is a little special. It's like this…"
He immediately told Qin Huiru about the crowdfunding event. He had to make sure that Qin Huiru knew the process and not accidentally expose his family's wealth.
"Ah!"
Qin Huairu was stunned. This surprise had come too suddenly. How could he serve wine like this?
"Don't say that. It's not good for others to hear it.
Later, I'll invite Third Master and the He family over to discuss the arrangements for tomorrow's banquet. We can drink half a glass of wine with peanuts.”
Li Wuwei had already figured out the process. Tomorrow, there would be a tough battle with the Jia family. This was like holding a wedding banquet in the same restaurant. Whoever had fewer guests would be embarrassed.
