Before dinner, Shibin came back from out of town. He hadn't seen him for a while. He was tanned a lot, but he looked stronger and more powerful. The main discussion tonight was about his engagement with the second young lady of the Fang family, so the whole family gathered early.
"Weiguo, are you ready for the twelve rites?"
"It's ready. This is the list of gifts. See if you need to readjust it." Shi Weiguo handed the list to the old man. Shi Lao looked at it and nodded and said: "It's quite satisfactory, replace two of them." As a great gift, I added two bottles of collection-level old wine from home, and two sheets of Tripitaka from the Song Dynasty. These were given to us by Xiao Mo. Since we are in-laws from now on, we should be more generous this time."
"Grandpa, can I see the list?"
Shi Lao handed him the list, and Li Mo took it and read it from top to bottom. The three major items, tobacco, wine, and tea, were necessary, followed by food, such as ginseng, deer antler, sea cucumber, bird's nest, imported ham, etc., specifications. All very high.
"Today's twelve rites are different from the traditional twelve rites. I remember when I brought your grandma in, I prepared peanuts, cakes, tobacco, wine, cloth, etc."
"At that time, there was a small plate of peanuts, and several gentlemen could sit around the table and drink wine. Now there are no three or five large dishes that are tasteless even with wine. Times have changed, and people's concepts are also changing. .”
Mr. Shi took the list and continued: "Let's discuss it today, and then tomorrow Mr. Qin will go over, go through all the etiquette, and set an auspicious day to have a meal together."
"Dad, do you want to invite your old comrades this time?" Shi Weiguo asked. After all, many of them have very good relationships.
"We will invite you again when you get married. This time it will be simpler. Have you two prepared any gifts for your future daughter-in-law?"
"Gold jewelry and a separate big red envelope, dad, wouldn't this be a little simpler?"
"It's not that simple, that's all."
Li Mo interrupted at this moment and said: "Uncle, aunt, I also prepared a gift for my cousin. It is a set of glass Fu Lu Shou three-color jade jewelry, including a pair of bracelets, a pair of earrings, a ring, and a jadeite jewelry set. Card. It will be fine in a few days, and then you can give it to each other together."
"Xiao Mo, is that expensive?" Grandma had no idea about this, but it sounded very high-end.
"Mom, that... that one is very expensive." Auntie was briefly surprised and then waved her hands and said, "Xiao Mo, this one is no good, it's too precious."
"Xiao Mo, your aunt is right, you should keep that set of jade jewelry for yourself." Shi Lao also knew in his heart that the set of glass jade jewelry with the blessings, wealth and longevity would probably be a lot smaller if it were to be sold in the market. Ten million.
"Grandpa, this kind of jade is hard to come by for ordinary people, and sometimes it is even more priceless. But for me, it is not a scarce product. I have a lot of it in my treasure house. Grandma, aunt , my mother, my master’s wife, each prepared a set, and the apprentice of the great master of Northern Diao Diao, Chen Xinghai, is helping me carve it. If you are reluctant to wear it at ordinary times, why not wear it at the grand event? It can also become a family heirloom in the future. .”
Shi Lao stopped talking. In your eyes, the best jadeite seems to be no different from a stone. What else can he say?
"Xiao Mo, thank you." Shibin said directly with a smile. He followed Li Mo to invest in catering. Because it has been expanding, there is no dividend, but as the scale grows, the value of his shares will only increase. The higher it is, the more money you make.
"Brother, can you send me off first?" Shi Yunli asked with a smile.
"You have a boyfriend?"
"No."
Li Mo shrugged and said, "We'll talk about it later."
The family then discussed other details, and at around eight o'clock in the evening, Li Mo said goodbye and left. Chen Xiaojun was already waiting outside. When he saw Li Mo coming out, he hurried over and whispered: "Uncle, Miss Liu has been found. She is singing with some classmates and friends. We can get there in 20 minutes." .”
"Let's go."
The two cars kept driving towards their destination. When they arrived, they realized that this was a very high-end club. Various luxury cars were parked at the entrance of the club, and ten people led by Chen Xiaojun were waiting at the entrance.
"Boss, Miss Liu is inside."
"kindness."
The people at the door of the club didn’t dare to stop him and just let him go respectfully.
"Boss, this is the private room."
Several people came to the door of a large box, and the aggressiveness of this group of people also attracted the attention of many people. Li Mo pushed open the box door, and the deafening sounds made him frown. There were more than a dozen people sitting inside, and the two large coffee tables were filled with various empty wine bottles, snacks, and fruit plates. The air was filled with the pungent smell of smoke.
The lights came on one after another, and more than ten people suddenly burst into the box. A man and a woman who were singing duet suddenly fell silent.
Li Mo glanced around and found that Liu Yingying was not there, but he saw a girl from Yingying's dormitory.
"Where's Yingying?"
"Who are you? Get out." A drunken young man stood up and pointed at everyone and shouted.
"Hello Mr. Li, Yingying just went to the bathroom. Let me call her for you."
"Let's go together."
When several people came to the bathroom, they saw two waitresses trying to help the woman who fell on the ground. That was Liu Yingying. When Li Mo stepped forward, a smell of alcohol hit his face. His face was red from drinking, and he was still talking vaguely.
At this moment she was drunk and unconscious.
"Why is she so drunk?"
Li Mo turned around and glanced at his roommate in the same dormitory. The girl's eyes were a little evasive.
"You guys came here to play together, and you didn't drink at all? Was Yingying drunk?"
"I...I...Mr. Li, I..."
Li Mo raised his hand to interrupt her and said coldly: "You know what you need to think about carefully before you say anything. If you don't tell me, you can imagine what will happen to you when I find out by myself. Xiaojun, take two people with you." Yingying goes to the hospital, and someone else arranges for someone to come back to the Magic City with me."
"Yes, little uncle."
Li Mo walked out of the club with a cold face. He didn't have time to stay here to find out. Chen Xiaojun sent Liu Yingying to a nearby hospital, and Li Mo and the remaining people drove four cars out of Kyoto.
The cars drove in turns, and when the sky got slightly brighter, a convoy got off the highway and entered the Magic City. After arranging the hotel, Li Mo drove to his master's house alone. During this period, Yanagawa Qing has been quietly raising himself at home.
At around seven o'clock, Li Mo rang the doorbell, and soon his wife Song Yuanning opened the door. She looked very haggard.
"Master Wife, I brought some breakfast."
Seeing Li Mo appear so early, Song Yuanning seemed relieved. She pointed to the room and said, "Old Liu is in the bedroom."
"I'm going to see Master."
Li Mo knocked on the bedroom door, then opened the door and walked in. He saw his master Yanagawa Kei lying on the bed. He had a cast on his right leg and a cast on his left arm. He was lying there listlessly.
"Master, what's wrong with your injury?"
Li Mo's first reaction was that there was another reason for the master's injury. He also said on the phone that he just had a minor operation. This was not a minor operation. If he was not careful, he would be left with a lifelong disability.
Yanagawa Qing wanted to sit up, but Li Mo quickly helped him up and put a pillow behind him.
"I accidentally hit a car."
Song Yuanning walked in with a bowl of rice porridge, and Yanagawa Qingzhi winked at him.
"Master, it's already here, do you still want to hide it from me? I just need to send someone to investigate, and everything will be found out clearly." Li Mo said angrily, "You have suffered so badly. You didn’t even tell me about your injury, but you still treat me as half your son?”
"Xiao Mo, let me do the talking."
Song Yuanning put the rice porridge on the bedside table, and then told the whole story. It turned out that Yanagawa Kei was injured due to a car accident and the other party was drunk driving. Logically speaking, it was obvious how to resolve the matter. But what happened later made both Yanaguan Qing and Song Yuanning feel uneasy. First, the conclusion about drunk driving was overturned, and then Yanagawa Qing was slapped with a black hat for not obeying traffic rules.
This was nothing. Several groups of people came to chat with Yanagawa Kei and his wife, and they all ended up asking him to plead guilty and compensate the other party for huge losses.
He was beaten up and beaten, and even threatened.
Originally, Yanagawa Kei couldn't be discharged from the hospital, but he couldn't help the other party's harassment. The hospital seemed to have received some news, so Yanagawa Kei was discharged from the hospital early and went home to recuperate.
"Master Wife, do you know who this person is?"
"The only son of the chairman of a listed company, the elders in the family seem to be local big shots. Xiao Mo, those people came from evil ways, and your master was afraid of hurting you and Yingying, so he didn't tell you."
"Can you hide this from me forever?"
Li Mo went to the balcony and made a few calls. Then he returned to the bedroom and heard Comrade Liu complaining to his wife.
"I will arrange for someone to take you to the best orthopedic hospital in Shanghai. You will be discharged when you are well enough. You don't need to worry about other things, I will take care of it."
