General, the lady escaped again

Chapter 258 Night Banquet (1)

"Why didn't you wake me up!" Ji Xiaomu blushed when she thought that everyone was waiting for her.

"You are the eldest sister-in-law, it is only natural for them to wait for you." Fang Chen smiled, "Okay, don't be angry."

"I'll settle the score with you when I get home." Mother Ji glared at Fang Chen fiercely and hurried to wash up.

When Ji Xiaowu and Fang Chen opened the door, the butler who had been waiting outside for a long time came to greet them. "Hello, distinguished guests. The master has been waiting for a long time. Please follow me to the banquet hall."

"Old Lu, long time no see." Fang Chen greeted the butler when he saw him.

"Lord Fang still remembers this old servant." Steward Lu didn't expect that Fang Chen still remembered him, and he was a little touched.

"You have protected him a lot. If it weren't for you, he would have suffered a lot." What Fang Chen remembers most vividly is that Li Hong was bullied by servants when he was young. After Butler Lu found out, he severely punished them for Li Hong. It can be said that without Butler Lu, Li Hong would have no good life at all.

Even though he was protecting Li Hong in public, and those people would not do anything to Li Hong in public for his sake, but behind the scenes, there were always some unknown means that he could not interfere with.

For example, those people deliberately gave Li Hong the evil slaves.

"The master has grown up." He can now fight back on his own.

Butler Lu smiled with satisfaction. He had been by Li Hong's side for more than ten years and witnessed the young man's rise from hardship. He could remember every step of his life clearly.

"He is lucky to have you." Fang Chen affirmed.

"It is the master's fortune to meet Lord Fang." Steward Lu shook his head. He was just a servant who was only loyal to his master.

While the two were talking, Butler Lu had already brought them to the banquet hall. Li Hong just walked out and saw them. He immediately said, "Brother, sister-in-law, you are finally here."

"Old Lu, it's just right. Please bring me my favorite wine. I won't go home until my brother and I are drunk." Li Hong saw Butler Lu and said to him while greeting Fang Chen and Ji Xiaomu.

"Master, the wine has been prepared." The butler said with a smile.

"You, Lao Lu, really understand me." Li Hong said happily, pulling Fang Chen to the main seat.

"Brother, sister-in-law." Seeing Ji Xiaou and Fang Chen, Yang Hua and other brothers stood up and called out.

This uniform shouting made Ji Xiaowu shudder all over. For a moment, she felt like she was in a military camp on a battlefield. Fang Chen nodded to his brothers, as if he was already used to it. "Sit down."

The uniform movements and loud voices made Li Hong and Ji Xiaomu feel the same way. The solemn and tense atmosphere was like a meeting in a military camp, which made people nervous.

Ji Xiaomu couldn't help feeling a little nervous and straightened her back.

Under the table, Fang Chen secretly squeezed Ji Xiaomu's hand. Ji Xiaomu raised her head and saw Lin Feng, the twelfth man opposite her, winking at her.

Ji Xiaomu was stunned, and suddenly realized that her brothers were doing this for Li Hong to see, so she remained silent.

"Brother, there's no need to be so nervous. Let's just have a normal gathering with brothers." Li Hong said nervously. No wonder his brother didn't want him to go to the military camp. He really couldn't stand this kind of restriction as he was used to freedom.

Seeing the beautiful and graceful maids bringing up the dishes, Yang Hua and the others looked straight ahead without even looking at them. The maids looked at each other, having never encountered such a situation before. But seeing that their master did not say anything, the maids withdrew.

"Let's eat!" Fang Chen spoke after seeing the maids leave.
