After the banquet officially began, the old couple of the Song family and Song Zhiguo and his wife went on stage to speak. Song Zhiguo asked Ling Dawei and Tian Mei to come on stage, but the couple refused to go up, so they had to give up.
Ling Ju watched his grandfather take out a speech manuscript from the pocket of his Zhongshan suit, and was shocked in his heart. The old man really came prepared!
As expected, the old man spoke for a full fifteen minutes before finishing his speech, which was undoubtedly to thank relatives and friends for coming to his great-grandson's first birthday party, and to thank Ling Ju and the Ling family for their contributions.
Then he wished his eldest grandson a happy and healthy growth, and finally gave Song Lingchen a gift, which was the sword that the old man had used to kill countless Japanese on the front line.
The gift was very meaningful. Ling Ju took it and felt it was heavy. She immediately said that she would keep it well and tell Song Lingchen this story when he grew up.
Song Zhiguo's speech was almost the same as Song Qiangjun's. Ling Ju suspected that her father-in-law was plagiarizing her grandfather's speech and even secretly told Song Xin about it.
The two girls thought of the same thing.
Finally, there is a family photo and a group photo with relatives and friends.
Chen Chun specially arranged for people from the photo studio to come and take a lot of photos.
Song Xin also took Song Wei's camera and took pictures here and there, leaving behind many memorable moments.
Although we don't accept gifts today, almost everyone who comes brings some gifts, mostly toys, food, and clothes for children.
The Song family's reputation was here, so Ling Ju just took a quick glance at the gifts and found that they were all good stuff.
Just as the birthday party was coming to an end, Ling Ju saw Chen Yun and Qian Yuan whispering something at the door from afar. She was about to ask Zhen Zhen if she knew what was going on when she saw Song Wei also stand up and walk out.
After a while, Ling Ju heard a commotion in the hall, and a voice that was both familiar and unfamiliar rang out, "Master Song! Please! Just consider it a good deed for the child and let our Xiao family go!"
Ling Ju frowned, put down his chopsticks and quickly pulled Song Qi, "Song Qi, that Xiao Li seems to be causing trouble. I heard his voice."
Song Qi quickly stood up and comforted her, "You sit down first, I'll go out and take a look."
Ling Ju also stood up, "I'll go with you."
Ling Ju handed the child to Song Xin, who was closest to her, and whispered a few instructions. Song Xin made an OK gesture, and then Ling Ju went out with peace of mind.
As soon as the two walked out of the banquet hall, they saw two people kneeling in the lobby, Xiao Li and his youngest son Xiao Qiang.
Song Wei stood aside, smoking a cigarette, and did not let Qian Yuan and Chen Yun catch them.
The other people in charge of security also listened to Song Wei's orders obediently and did not move.
Song Qi approached and asked, "What's going on?"
As soon as Xiao Li saw Song Qi and Ling Ju coming out, he quickly crawled to Song Qi's legs, "Second Young Master Song! Please spare my life! Consider it a good deed for the child!"
Song Qi directly extended his right hand and lifted Xiao Li up, his tone very unhappy, "Xiao, my child is blessed with a long life, and there is no need for you, a traitor, to talk about accumulating virtue. If it is accumulating virtue, then you should do some. Now, this is the retribution for your lack of virtue."
Xiao Li didn't expect that Song Qi would not treat him well at all.
However, with so many people here today, Ling Ju had already guessed that he must have come here on purpose to cause trouble.
Song Qi did not throw Xiao Li aside, but directly picked up Xiao Li and put him on the sofa on the side, and asked Qian Yuan to pick up Xiao Qiang as well.
The Xiao father and son sat on the sofa, looking at the several strong men surrounding them.
But they showed no fear at all. This meant that someone must have spread rumors and deliberately made them come to cause trouble.
The purpose is to make the Song family lose face.
Just as Ling Ju was about to ask Song Wei and the others to take the people away for processing, the door of the banquet hall opened and groups of people came out, preparing to leave the hall.
Xiao Li, who was surrounded, saw Shen Chun coming out, and rushed out with all his strength, kneeling at Shen Chun's feet, which scared Shen Chun.
"Boss Shen, Boss Shen, please let us go! Please, let us go! I will work like a slave for the rest of my life to repay you! Please let us go!"
Xiao Li knelt down and began to kowtow. Seeing his father rushing out, Xiao Qiang also wanted to rush out, but was held down by Chen Yun.
But everyone who came out of the banquet hall saw this scene.
Chen Chun took a few steps back, "Who are you? Why are you kneeling? Stand up and talk!"
Xiao Li was still kneeling and kowtowing, "I am Xiao Li, Mr. Shen. I was wrong to you back then. Please spare our Xiao family's life! Mr. Shen!"
Chen Chun finally reacted, his tone a little cold, "Today is my grandson's first birthday party! Did you come here just to disrupt it?"
Xiao Li shook his head and was helped up by Chen Yun and Qian Yuan to make way for the people behind him.
Everyone who came out saw this scene: a man in his fifties or sixties kowtowed to Chen Chun. They were all officials, and seeing such a scene, it was impossible not to be curious.
Suddenly a group of people gathered around, seemingly asking about each other's well-being, but actually just watching the fun.
Song Wei said coldly, "Director Xiao, I haven't done anything to the Xiao Corporation yet, and you've come to my nephew's first birthday party to disrupt things. I don't think you want us to spare you, but I need you to spare me!"
The people around were also discussing in low voices.
"Yeah, if you have something to say, just talk it out. Kneeling and kowtowing doesn't prove you're weak!"
"Hey, is that the youngest son of the Xiao family who was in the newspapers earlier this year for molesting a woman? I think his name is Xiao Qiang?"
"Yes, yes, that's him. Oh, how dare he come here and disturb the Song family's grandson's first birthday party! How shameless!"
