Chapter 326 Hongmen Banquet

When Li Shengli came home from get off work in the evening, Yan Bugui was discussing this matter at the door of his house.

Li Shengli snorted coldly. Yi Zhonghai did it after all, so don't blame me for skinning him.

"Shengli, I heard from Teacher Yan today that a stranger came to the yard?" Han Qiuyun also heard the news, thinking that this newcomer was used to deal with her husband.

"That's right, it's the person that Old Man Yi has found. Let me show him how powerful I am tomorrow." Li Shengli planned to try a different approach. Yi Zhonghai was in need of someone to take care of him, so it would be great to let Widow Qian marry him.

"You, why are you still bothering them when we are all going to move out?" Han Qiuyun rolled her eyes at Li Shengli in annoyance.

"It's because we are moving out that we have to teach him a lesson. This old ghost Yi wants to drive us out of this compound. Do you think that if he marries Widow Qian and we move out of this compound, will this old ghost Yi be so angry that he vomits blood?" Li Shengli found it funny at the thought of this.

"I guess so." Han Qiuyun thought of Yi Zhonghai's expression and began to look forward to it.

"Before we leave, let's find a powerful widow for Sha Zhu to marry, and then let that widow give him a child." Li Shengli also began to plan, "Let Sha Zhu's wife take good care of Sha Zhu, at least make him stop helping the Jia family."

Han Qiuyun watched Li Shengli planning his own plan. Han Qiuyun was very well protected by Li Shengli. Li Shengli generally did not let Han Qiuyun get involved in the affairs of the compound. Han Qiuyun only knew that Li Shengli was disgusted by Yi Zhonghai.

After a good night's sleep, the next day, Sunday, Li Shengli went out for a walk as usual and did not go home until it was time to get off work.

After returning home, Li Shengli planned to go to Sha Zhu's house for a dinner. Li Shengli did not plan to eat Sha Zhu's food. The dishes that Sha Zhu brought back from the restaurant were fine, but who knew what they put in the dishes cooked by Qin Huairu.

Li Shengli first tied a white towel in each of his sleeves, and then when he wanted to drink, he just poured the wine into his sleeves.

"Wife, I'm going to the banquet." Li Shengli acted as if the wind was whistling and the Yi River was cold.

"Go quickly, I'll watch here." Han Qiuyun looked at the somewhat pretentious Li Shengli with amusement and patted him with a smile. Li Chengkang was watching TV and didn't care at all about his parents who were showing their love.

"Then you still remember what I told you." Li Shengli confirmed with his wife again.

"Remember, I'll go to He Yuzhu's place to find you every half an hour. Then tell him that something happened at home and your son is looking for you." Han Qiuyun rolled her eyes at Li Shengli in annoyance. She had said this several times.

"Dad, I don't have anything to talk to you about." Li Chengkang, who was standing by, heard his father using him as a shield and said in a very disrespectful way.

"Hey, do you deserve a beating, kid? Do you still want toys? Do you still want lucky money?" Seeing his son being so disrespectful and ruining his own plans, Li Shengli couldn't help but tease his son with the New Year's money.

"Dad, I was wrong. I will come to you whenever you say I need something." Hearing his father talking about his New Year's money, Li Chengkang immediately raised his hands in surrender. He was planning to use the New Year's money he had saved to buy things.

"That's more like it." Li Shengli was very satisfied with his son's reaction. The whole family got along well without the Yan family's scheming or the Liu family's beatings and scoldings.

"Wife, I'm leaving." Li Shengli packed up his things, picked up a bottle of wine, waved to Han Qiuyun, and walked out of his door.

"Shengli, if you really can't do it, then don't go." Han Qiuyun was still worried that Li Shengli would suffer a loss, so she tried to persuade him. "That won't work. Before, Yi Zhonghai just said a few words, but this time he actually killed him. I can't stand this." Li Shengli rejected Han Qiuyun's proposal.

Before, whether Yi Zhonghai wanted him to help the widow or act as a peacemaker and help the Jia family, he could have refused. It would not have affected him, and at most he would have been in a bad mood for the time being. But this time, Yi Zhonghai really touched Li Shengli's reverse scale.

If Li Shengli was sent to jail for hooliganism, what would happen to Han Qiuyun? What would happen to the three children? The lives of the three children would be ruined. With the speed at which gossip spreads on the streets, everyone would know that the three of them are the children of a hooligan.

"The fluttering flags sway in the purple smoke, the sharp spears and halberds shine in the blue sky. The Hongmen people made three plans to kill Liu Bang during the banquet." Li Shengli started humming as he walked out of his house. The lines he sang at this moment fit the scene perfectly.

Yan Bugui, who lived next door, was curious when he heard Li Shengli's voice. He watched Li Shengli stretch out his hand and make gestures commonly used in Peking Opera, and then listened to the lines Li Shengli was singing.

Wow, wow, it’s the Hongmen Banquet.

"Shengli, where are you going? Why are you still singing?" As the most educated person of the older generation in the entire courtyard, Yan Bugui knows quite a bit about Peking Opera.

"Just sing it, why are you singing about the Hongmen Feast?"

Yan Bugui's face was full of confusion. What was the meaning of singing the Hongmen Banquet at this time? Who was Xiang Yu and who was Liu Bang in this courtyard?

"Teacher Yan." Li Shengli stopped humming and greeted Yan Bugui, "I'm going to the Intermediate Court. He Yuzhu wants to treat me to a meal."

"Wow, I was wondering why Qin Huairu bought so many dishes today. It turns out that Sha Zhu wants to treat us." Yan Bugui exclaimed, "Wow." He originally thought that the Jia family had some good news, so they bought so many dishes.

And from what Qin Huairu said, it was Yi Zhonghai who asked her to buy these dishes. Yan Bugui probably guessed that Yi Zhonghai wanted to invite Li Shengli to dinner, but Yan Bugui didn't understand what Yi Zhonghai's purpose was.

"Why would Sha Zhu invite you to dinner?" Yi Zhonghai paid Qin Huairu to buy groceries and then invited Li Shengli to dinner in Sha Zhu's name. Oh my god, could it be that Old Yi is planning to ease the relationship between Li Shengli and the Jia family?

But there is no need to do so. The Jia family did not ease relations with Li Shengli when they were in trouble before. Now that the Jia family's life is already very good, what is the point of easing relations now? Yan Bugui's mind was working very quickly.

"Teacher Yan, do you want to go together?" Li Shengli was delighted to see Yan Bugui taking the initiative to talk to him. This was a perfect shield, so Li Shengli invited Yan Bugui.

The abacus in Yan Bugui's mind was jingling.

"No, they invited you to dinner, why should I go." Yan Bugui thought for a long time and finally rejected Li Shengli's proposal. This Yi Zhonghai must have something to do, and he didn't invite him, it would not be good for him to go to his house. Yan Bugui claimed to be a scholar, he could plan, but begging was not okay, if he went to someone who didn't invite him, that would be begging, Yan Bugui still had some integrity.

Seeing that Yan Bugui did not agree, Li Shengli sighed in his heart and felt a little regretful. It would have been great if Yan Bugui had gone with him.

"Then Teacher Yan, I'll go first." Seeing that Yan Bugui was not going to go with him, Li Shengli could only sigh inwardly. What a good shield was gone now. How could this stingy Yan, who usually loved to take advantage of others, be so cowardly now?
