In the afternoon, Chen Pingan and Edwards called Chen Shaohua at 4:30 and asked him to arrange for the manor's car to come to the company to pick up people.
Not only the 9 people from the company had to be picked up, but also the 6 people from the calligraphy and painting academy had to be picked up.
Chen Shaohua was not vague and directly asked Dicket and others to arrange 8 cars to go to the company to follow Chen Pingan's arrangements.

Liu Qing had already ordered to roast the sheep.
On the lawn next to the parking area of ββthe manor, dozens of temporary tables were lined up in two rows, and the tables were filled with wine and fruits.
The kitchen was not idle either.
Bulma and Lind went to pick up Delma, and Brianna helped in the kitchen.
At five o'clock, Chen Pingan and Edwards arranged for the company's 9 people to get on 5 cars and go directly to the manor, which had been arranged.
After everyone left, he and Edwards took the remaining cars to the hotel where Tao Zhixing and his friends were staying, and waited in the lobby like last time.
They arrived a little early.
Tao Zhixing brought Lanxiang and the others into the hotel dragging boxes from outside and was a little surprised when they saw him.
"Mr. Chen, you are really early!"
Tao Zhixing pointed to the boxes they were dragging and said, "Why don't you wait a moment? We need to send the brushes and paints back to the room first, and maybe change clothes or something..."
Chen Pingan smiled and nodded, "It's okay, I came early.
The company's group of people have already gone to the manor, and we have nothing to do in the company, so we came here to wait for you."
Lanxiang and others followed Tao Zhixing and greeted him and Edwards and went upstairs.
Chen Pingan looked at Lanxiang's graceful back and smiled silently.
Edwards whispered beside him, "Good figure!"
This time Chen Pingan couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Okay, we can go back after they come down. I wonder how many delicious foods my mom and Anna have prepared.
To be honest, I haven't had a big meal for a long time."
The two waited for a full twenty minutes downstairs. Tao Zhixing came down first, carrying a large paper bag.
"I also prepared a few gifts for your family. I don't know how many people there are, so I prepared 5."
Chen Pingan took it and handed it to the Scorpion man with a smile, "Dean Tao, you are polite."
Not long after, Zheng Guang and Lanxiang came down, and they all carried some gifts.
Chen Pingan smiled and asked the bodyguard to take the gifts they were going to give, but he didn't touch his personal bag.
"Okay, since we are all here, please ask Dean Tao to get in the car. The family has prepared it."
It was six o'clock and it was already dark.
Tao Zhixing got in the car of Chen Pingan and Edwards.
Others sat casually.
The convoy slowly accelerated after leaving the hotel and leaving the city.
It has to be said that the scenery in Europe is indeed unique. Although each has its own beauty, the exotic customs are always relatively more attractive.
Along the way, Chen Pingan and Tao Zhixing talked about life here, and they arrived unknowingly.
After the car turned into a small road, a light could be seen in front of the straight road.
The distance was actually not too far.
After about a few kilometers, the car stopped in front of a gate. As the door opened inward, the convoy drove straight in.
At this time, the building complex about 300 meters away could be seen.
The lawn on the side was brightly lit, and dozens of people were already talking and laughing there.
Tao Zhixing was a little shocked when he came in.
To be honest, he was just an ordinary civil servant. Although his rank was at the department level, he was not really a rich man.
This kind of scene has only been seen in film and television works. When you really see it with your own eyes, the shock is really very impactful.
After the convoy stopped, everyone got off the car.
Hu Xianmei said with envy: "It's really a manor!"
Lanxiang looked at the main building. The architectural style is not a magnificent castle, but a typical local building, but it occupies a larger area.
The building should be three stories high. There are lights on inside and the surrounding lights are sufficient. It looks pretty good.
The noise on the other side was much lower. Chen Shaohua, Liu Qing, Brianna and Chen Shuhui all came over.
Deerma and Chen Yangyang were eating and didn't come over.
After Chen Shaohua came over, he stretched out his hand to Tao Zhixing and said: "Welcome, Dean Tao, Ping'an told me that you were coming, and I made some simple preparations. I hope you can have a pleasant night here."
Liu Qing followed beside him, and his eyes began to look at Lanxiang seriously.
Tao Zhixing shook Chen Shaohua's hand and said with a smile on his face: "We are abrupt."
After the introduction of the staff, everyone walked towards the table together.
It is indeed a bit abnormal to do this outside in the winter, but there is no way.
There is no such a large hall in the manor!
Everyone is wearing down jackets.
And it hasn't snowed recently. Although it's a bit cold, Scorpion and his team have put up white tarpaulins around them, so there's not much wind. There's a fire basket about every three meters behind them.
The firewood is burning inside, emitting enough heat so that everyone doesn't feel cold.
After seeing more Chinese faces, Tao Zhixing finally relaxed.
Huang Yuchen came up and said, "Hello, Dean Tao!"
Chen Pingan also came over. After some introductions, Huang Yuchen automatically joined Lanxiang and Hu Xianmei. Not only that, Brianna, Chen Shuhui, Chen Yangyang and Xiao Deerma also sat here, in addition to the women and children from Scorpion.
The women and children occupied a row of tables.
Liu Qing had to serve the dishes according to domestic customs, and she turned and went to the kitchen again.
As the head of the family, Chen Shaohua took the other men to the other side.
This side was full of men.
There were dozens of boxes of various beers and foreign wines piled on the ground.
Maozi and red wine were piled on the table.
After Tao Zhixing's people figured out the specific departments in Beijing where Chen Pingan's company came from, they immediately became much more enthusiastic.
After Chen Shaohua said that everyone could eat and drink as they pleased from now on.
"The rooms are ready. Two people per room. Don't think it's crowded!
Today, we invite you to come here to celebrate the New Year in advance. If you want to come during the New Year, just call us in advance. It will be very convenient to prepare here.
Now please relax and enjoy the drinks and food.
But if you want music, there is no orchestra in the manor."
Everyone laughed.
Chen Ping'an and Edwards started roasting the whole lamb at the same time.
They set an example, and others naturally started to roast it.
Two lambs were arranged for the women, and seven lambs were arranged for the men. All of them were roasted.
There were more than 20 or nearly 30 men, so the lambs should not be enough, but it's okay.
There were also beef, chicken and various barbecues.
Besides, the kitchen was still boiling soup, which was Liu Qing's specialty!
Huang Yuchen, Lanxiang and Hu Xianmei were not fools.
After seeing that almost all the women and children were very respectful to Huihui, Yangyang and Deerma, they naturally knew their identities.
Out of gratitude to Chen Pingan, Huang Yuchen kept introducing Lanxiang and Hu Xianmei to them.
