"Dad, are you going to participate?"

Li Qicheng asked his father respectfully.

"I appreciate your kind offer, but I've already made plans to go fishing with my old friend, so I'm afraid I won't be able to go."

The old man of the Li family declined in a calm tone, saying, "The children shouldn't go either, especially those few Calabash Brothers. They're too noisy and will only cause trouble for the engagement ceremony!"

"Okay, I understand."

Li Qicheng nodded knowingly, without saying anything more.

“It wouldn’t be appropriate for none of us to go. Besides the eldest son and his family, it would be best to arrange for a few representatives to go.”

The old lady of the Li family said thoughtfully, "We haven't really fallen out with the Liang family yet. They've already sent us an invitation, so we should give them the face they deserve."

"Then just send two people!"

The old man of the Li family waved his hand casually, not wanting to argue with the old lady over such a trivial matter, and casually asked his second son, Li Qiwen, and third son, Li Qicheng:

"Second brother, third brother, which of you two is free that day?"

"Dad, I have to accompany Wanran to a dance competition abroad. One of her students has successfully advanced to the finals," Li Qiwen said apologetically.

Li Qicheng quickly replied, "I happen to be free, I'll go!"

As soon as the words were spoken, a soft, sweet, baby voice rang out.

"Dad, Yan Yan wants to go too!"

Little Yanbao raised his two little hands high and expressed his excitement.

Upon hearing the sound, everyone's attention turned to the little boy.

The old master of the Li family was surprised for a moment, then smiled kindly and asked gently, "Yanbao, why do you want to go?"

The little boy's eyes crinkled into crescents, and without hesitation, he answered in his sweet, childish voice:

"Because Yan Yan wants to attend the banquet!"
