Because Huo Xiaoran and Qiao An were staying for the meal, the old man specially instructed the kitchen to make more delicious food. As the old man was in a good mood, he was much better and even asked the butler to push him out to eat together.
Although the Li family had declined, they adhered to the traditional style of many wealthy families. For example, the hierarchy between the elders and juniors was strict. When eating, the elders and juniors had to sit separately, the elders and guests sat at the top, and the women and male compatriots had to be separated. This way, it was convenient for the men to speak freely and drink to liven things up.
As the juniors were young, they did not have such a serious concept of hierarchy. They sat around randomly and chatted.
Huo Xiaoran had not married. Although he was an elder, he sat with Li Zecheng and the others. Today, the old man specially invited him to sit with his brothers.
