Li Shuzhen didn't want to avoid anything at all. She rushed to the stage in a few steps, took Chen Tianhua's hand and murmured affectionately, wishing she could hug him and take a bite.

"This is what the former pastor taught me, haha... there are many things you didn't expect." Chen Tianhua said with a smile.

Naturally, he was talking about the fictitious priest.

If someone sums up the various abilities that Chen Tianhua said about this priest, it is not difficult to find that the priest he mentioned is knowledgeable about astronomy and geography, proficient in martial arts, knows people and people, understands Yin and Yang Bagua, and knows Qimen.

Dunjia.

In fact, he is an omnipotent god who knows everything before he knows what he is doing.

This was both a joke and a reminder.

At this time, Li Pinzhang, Li Shuying, Tang Jishao, Shibuya Ichiro and others all looked livid and dejected.

They never dreamed that these hands, which had been fishing for fish and shrimp for a long time and had a strong smell, could play such high-level piano music.

It's really unbelievable.

If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, you wouldn't believe it.

This time, they were really being tortured on their own, and they originally wanted to show off, hit each other, and save their own face.

I never thought that I would lose so badly that I would even take off my underwear to hide my shame.

Li Pinzhang was annoyed and slapped himself hard several times. He really wanted to run into the toilet, cry loudly, and kill the counting ball.

Li Pinzhang stared at Chen Tianhua with gloomy eyes for a moment, then left the hall alone without saying a word.

He vowed that he would never let Chen Tianhua have an easy time.

This piece of piano music by Chen Tianhua has undoubtedly become the best highlight of today's birthday banquet, and it is also the perfect ending to today's entertainment program.

The golden couple Chen Tianhua and Li Shuzhen standing in front of the stage naturally became the focus of everyone in the hall.

"This girl is the third Miss of the Li family. Who is that boy? I haven't heard Brother Cunzhi mention it before?"

"Looking at this posture, they should be a pair of lovers, but at this Li's birthday banquet..."

"..."

There are more than a hundred people, men, women, old and young, in the hall, but they are all from Hangzhou City and even Zhejiang Province.

Reputable figures who play a decisive role in the political and military circles, as well as their families.

Li Cunzhi did not expect that such a ridiculous family farce would appear at his birthday party.

He always believed that Li Pinzhang's purpose today was to avenge his mother Zhong's family status in the Li family.

Fortunately, all of this was miraculously covered up by Chen Tianhua, and instead Li Cunzhi gained face for him. It was a natural and perfect birthday celebration program.

The black mole on his right cheek trembled proudly twice inadvertently.

Originally, Li Cunzhi planned to hold an engagement ceremony on a certain date before officially announcing the relationship between Chen Tianhua and his daughter Qianhua.

But if today's scene is not made public, it will be very passive. A lot of rumors will appear in Hangzhou City overnight, which will be detrimental to the reputation of Li Mansion.

"Everyone, my relatives and friends... I have a happy event at home. I would like to take the opportunity of my birthday party to announce it."

With that said, Li Cunzhi stood up from the Grand Master's chair in the front row, turned to face the people in the hall and said loudly:

"This young man's name is Chen Tianhua, also known as Huazhi. He fell in love with his daughter Qianhua and became lovers. However, both of them are new-school people who advocate new things and new things, so as elders, they don't have to do it reluctantly."

"Today, let Li announce to everyone that from now on, Chen Tianhua, who is born late, will be the third uncle of the Li family and the third son-in-law of me, Li Cunzhi. Please give more care to these two young people. Li would like to thank you in advance."

After speaking, Li Cunzhi clasped his fists and bowed to everyone.

"Well...Congratulations to Mr. Li on your double happiness, and getting a ride with an outstanding talent."

Long Kuai’s son-in-law.”

"Brother Cunzhi has good eyesight, this young man is really outstanding."

"..."

Chen Tianhua and Li Shuzhen held hands and bowed to all the guests in the hall.

Everyone came forward to congratulate him.

Everyone knows that today's birthday banquet has been temporarily expanded by Li Cunzhi into an engagement banquet between Chen Tianhua and Li Shuzhen.

It is also possible to have two banquets.

"Hua Zhi, you have to toast more today. Many of the people here are your elders, so I have to toast them one by one." Bai Suling came over from the side and whispered to Chen Tianhua and Li Shuzhen.

"Auntie, please rest assured, I will go all out and do my best." Chen Tianhua was unprepared for the sudden situation, so he had to deal with it calmly.

Li Shuzhen looked happy. She sincerely thanked her parents for being reasonable and making her dreams come true.

In the hall, props began to be removed, tables were placed, and a large group of guards, servants, servants, and maids were all busy.

The guests stood in small groups at the edge of the hall or in the garden outside, waiting for the tables and chairs to be arranged and the food and wine to be served so that they could take their seats.

In just half an hour, the tables and benches for the banquet were all arranged, with birthday boy Li Cunzhi at the head, and everyone filed in.

There are only ten tables arranged in the entire hall, all with large round tables. This is the main banquet, and each table has ten people.

All the guests' entourage, guards, grooms, etc. were arranged in the east and west side courtyards, where there were also ten tables.

After a while of humility and busyness, under the arrangements of Sun Yong, Butler Ding and others, everyone sat down in their seats.

The palace lanterns around the hall were all lit, and in the center of the hall was a group of five large three-tiered candle lanterns, making the entire hall awash in light.

Chen Tianhua, who came from later generations, can easily find that the perspective and clarity in this hall are not very high, and there are candlelight and darkness everywhere.

Under this kind of light, people feel a little dazed.

Without electric lights, large-scale night banquets would probably be like this nowadays. With this condition, it is much better than a kerosene lamp in the countryside.

The table at the top of the hall is of course the table where Li Cunzhi himself is serving. He is surrounded by the governor's yamen, prefect's yamen, patrol camp and other related chief officials, or the chief officials' important staff.

The wives and concubines of the noble families were accompanied by the second wife Zhong and his wife Bai Suling, and the young ladies were accompanied by Li Shuying.

As members of the Li family, Chen Pinzhang and Tang Jishao also sat separately to keep company.

Today, only Chen Tianhua and Li Shuzhen had special status and did not attend the banquet. They also became the protagonists of the banquet.

Get engaged.

The two of them were currently being combed and tidied by Xiao Yu'er, Xiao Cui, and several maids in the next room. They each put on more festive dresses, each with a red flower tied on their chest to show their style.

After the birthday banquet started, they went out to toast the head of the house, Li Cunzhi, and the guests at the table, and then went to the next table to toast.

The dishes on the table are almost ready, the wine glasses are filled with wine, and several maids are standing at each dining table with their hands hanging down.

Sun Yong came to Li Cunzhi and whispered in Li Cunzhi's ear:

"Sir, all the dishes in the kitchen have been served, and the chef is preparing the finale soon. The banquet can begin."

Li Cunzhi smiled knowingly, picked up his wine glass and said loudly:

"Dear relatives, friends, and colleagues, prepare a little wine tonight. Thank you for coming to Li's fiftieth birthday party and attending my daughter's engagement party. Please raise a toast together and rejoice together."

"cheers…"

"Dry…"

"..."

"Everyone eat the vegetables first. They will be cold in a while. You can drink the wine slowly."

As a result, everyone in the hall began to exchange glasses and taste the delicacies, and the scene immediately became lively.
Chapter completed!
