Chapter 43: Father's Ambition

They say good news invigorates the spirit, and Li Dazhi's face was aglow with happiness, evidently having encountered something delightful.

"I pay my respects to Great-Ancestor."

"Ah, this is all wrong!"

Li Dazhi hurriedly returned the salute, his eyes searching for Li Ping'an as he spoke,

"You are Ping'an's master, we should just each call our own... Where is Ping'an?"

"Cooking..."

Li Dazhi squinted, his smile broadening.

He knew his son's culinary skills;

They were, without doubt, explosive even by the old Li family's standards.
