The main hall of the Ye family immediately became lively.
Even the guests and clan members outside gathered around the door and looked around, their faces full of envy.
"Grandpa just drinks. After drinking, the grandson can pick it up."
Ye Xinglong enjoyed the admiration and praise from everyone. He held his chest and head high, looking even more high-spirited.
This was said easily, but the meaning of showing off couldn't be more obvious.
"Haha, great, great, worthy of being my grandson, Ye Zhenxiao!"
Ye Zhenxiao was extremely happy and said three good words in a row, which showed his love for this eldest grandson.
The birthday ceremony continues.
The entire Ye family has an atmosphere of loving father and filial piety, respectful brothers, friends and brothers, and everything is prosperous in the family.
It's quite enviable.
"Third sister, grandpa loves you the most. He even gave you the position of young patriarch. I wonder if you have anything good to offer to grandpa this time?"
When Ye Xinglong took his seat, he glanced at Ye Qingcheng and Su Chen behind him, his eyes full of teasing.
Surrounding him were a group of boys and girls, all three generations of the Ye family.
Among them, Ye Deming's son, Ye Gaoyang, also sneered at this moment and said: "The third sister is in charge of the family power and has strong financial resources. You won't let us down, right?"
Ye Ling, whose Dantian was destroyed, had been staring at Ye Qingcheng and Su Chen with extremely hateful eyes, wishing to bite them.
"Ye Xinglong? This is the boy who has always wanted to seize the position of the young patriarch of Qingcheng!"
Su Chen glanced at Ye Xinglong indifferently. He looked majestic and dignified, but in fact he was just a playboy, far inferior to him before.
"The two brothers were joking. It's grandpa's birthday, so I will prepare gifts carefully!"
Ye Qingcheng said lightly and walked forward with Su Chen.
For a moment, everyone's eyes gathered.
With the pearls and jade in front of them, everyone wanted to see what kind of treasures the young patriarch of the Ye family would bring out.
"The third granddaughter Ye Qingcheng, a purple heart jade futon!"
The old housekeeper yelled.
The Purple Heart Jade Futon is also a treasure that assists in practice. Sitting on it to practice practice can not only prevent you from going crazy, but also increase your practice speed.
However, purple heart jade is extremely rare, so the price is also high. Just such a piece is worth at least 100,000 spiritual stones.
No worse than the thousand-year-old rosewood given by Ye Deyuan.
Moreover, she originally prepared a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum for Su Chen, and almost emptied her family fortune for Ye Zhenxiao's birthday.
It can be seen that Ye Qingcheng has deep feelings for Ye Zhenxiao.
However, Su Chen felt a little weird when he heard the old housekeeper's name for Ye Qingcheng.
I don't know if it's the custom here or because the old housekeeper forgot for a moment and called Ye Qingcheng the Young Patriarch.
"Purple Heart Jade Futon? I thought it was some great good thing. It's not as good as the Spring Breeze and Rain Pill I sent, let alone the Tianxin Jade Dew Tea sent by Brother Xinglong."
Ye Gaoyang sneered.
"I thought the young patriarch had some amazing treasure, but it turned out to be nothing more than that."
Ye Ling sneered.
Seeing these people grouping together to target Ye Qingcheng, Su Chen had a bad feeling in his heart.
"okay!"
Ye Zhenxiao nodded, his expression a little cold.
He just hooked his hand at Ye Qingcheng and said, "Come on, Qingcheng, come to grandpa. Grandpa has something to say to you."
Ye Qingcheng happily ran forward and introduced Ye Zhenxiao: "Grandpa, he is Su Chen, my husband, and he also has a gift for you!"
In front of Ye Zhenxiao, Ye Qingcheng rarely showed her little daughter's attitude.
"oh?"
Ye Zhenxiao looked Su Chen up and down. There was no expectation at all in his eyes, but more contempt.
Under Ye Zhenxiao's mighty lion-like gaze, Su Chen calmly took out a gift box.
What’s in the gift box is Qingming’s longevity pill!
Su Chen specially obtained the precious materials from Master Xuanyang in preparation for his birthday gift.
Although he had no friendship with Ye Zhenxiao, he still prepared this generous gift for Ye Qingcheng.
"This pill is called Qingming Longevity Pill. It has no other effects. Its only function is to increase longevity for twenty years!"
Su Chen introduced lightly.
No matter what elixir treasures are available, those that can increase longevity are the most precious.
What do warriors practice for? Isn’t it just to live a few more years?
In the eyes of most people, nothing in this world is more precious than life.
Of course, the more precious something is, the rarer it is.
In the Kingdom of Dachu, treasures that can increase one's lifespan by one year are extremely rare, and those like Tianling Jade Dew Tea that can increase one's life span by three years are the best among them.
So after Su Chen finished his introduction, the scene fell silent.
"Twenty years? Humph... Are you kidding me! Where in the world can such treasures be found? Even in the capital, I have never heard of such pills!"
After a moment, Ye Xinglong's mocking voice broke the silence.
"Qingming Longevity Pill? My Ye family has been in the pill business for so many years. I know all the pills on the market, but I have never heard of Qingming Longevity Pill!"
Ye Deyuan also shook his head and smiled, his laughter full of sarcasm.
Ye Deming also sneered and said sarcastically: "Su Chen, although you are no longer the eldest son of the Su family, you are not so stingy. Just take a pill to fool me. This is the old man's 100th birthday!"
"Hmph! I see that he clearly doesn't take the old man seriously!"
Ye Delin naturally would not miss any opportunity to target Su Chen, and immediately stood up and scolded.
"snort!"
Ye Zhenxiao snorted coldly and threw it aside.
Obviously, he had never seen this kind of elixir before, and it didn't look like anything special.
And he didn't believe that Su Chen could come up with any precious pills.
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became weird.
"That's right. You've become someone's son-in-law, why are you still so stingy?"
"I know that this son-in-law's talent and cultivation have been ruined. Of course, there is nothing he can do with him."
"Then you can't cheat and kidnap, right?"
The distinguished guests in the hall, including the ordinary guests and clan members watching the excitement outside, also started talking about it.
"Grandpa doesn't dare to eat this Qingming longevity pill, so you should keep it for yourself!"
Ye Xinglong sneered, picked up the pill box and threw it directly to Su Chen.
Su Chen could tell that Ye Zhenxiao didn't like him at all, and he didn't believe that Qingming Longevity Pill could increase his life span by twenty years.
Su Chen didn't even bother to look at Ye Xinglong, let alone explain anything. He grabbed the pill box and turned around.
But when he wanted to turn around and leave, he heard Ye Zhenxiao say to Ye Qingcheng: "Qingcheng, there are so many chores during this period, have you been exhausted? Look, grandpa felt very sorry for losing so much weight before... …”
"Grandpa, this is what I should do."
Ye Qingcheng's eyes were slightly red and he said quite movedly.
"Silly boy, your grandpa knows how hard you worked, but it's better now. Grandpa has been released from prison, and you are married and have your own little family."
"So, grandpa has specially prepared a generous dowry for you. From now on, you can enjoy the glory and wealth without worrying about those trivial matters. Let Xinglong share some of the burden for you in the future, haha..."
Ye Zhenxiao still had a kind expression and said with a smile.
But between the lines, everything changed.
Su Chen finally understood. This old man was a scheming smiling tiger.
When you're done using it, throw it away!
How could he watch Ye Qingcheng being bullied? But before he could speak, Ye Qingcheng suddenly held his hand.
"It's grandpa's birthday, don't mess around!"
Ye Qingcheng's eyes were solemn and he shook his head at Su Chen: "If anything happens, we'll talk about it after the birthday party. I believe grandpa must have his reasons for doing this."
But Su Chen didn't think so. He had already seen that something was wrong.
Of course Ye Qingcheng is not stupid. She just trusts her grandfather too much and always regards him as a spiritual support. She doesn't want to think about it at all.
"Okay, okay, everyone, take your seats. The birthday banquet is about to start. Everyone must not get drunk or come home today, ah!"
Ye Zhenxiao suddenly stood up and said with a smile to the room full of guests.
The intention to change the topic and drive people away is very obvious.
Although Su Chen was unhappy, he did not want to make it difficult for Ye Qingcheng. After all, Ye Zhenxiao did not directly announce that he would abolish Ye Qingcheng's identity as the young patriarch.
He had no choice but to be pulled off the stage by Ye Qingcheng.
Behind the scenes, Ye Deyuan, Ye Xinglong and others all laughed mockingly and mockingly.
"Miss, uncle, please come this way."
As soon as they stepped off the stage, a maid came forward and actually invited them all the way out of the Ye family hall, to the corner of the square outside, where they sat with ordinary guests and ordinary tribesmen.
Soon, Lin Yun was also invited over, her face extremely ugly.
"Miss, what on earth is going on?"
Lan Xiang asked in a low voice, and the faces of Qingzhu and others were also full of doubts.
The Young Patriarch has always been the highest-ranking person in the family after the Patriarch. Logically speaking, he should sit at the top of the hall. How could he be placed in a corner outside?
"Hmph! What else could happen?"
Lin Yun snorted coldly, glanced at Su Chen and said, "He's not our good uncle. He made a big splash at the birthday ceremony. He didn't know what kind of rags he used to fool the old man. Why didn't the old man chase us away when he was angry?"
Every time she saw Su Chen being careless, she would get angry.
This time, she and her daughter were even more embarrassed.
"Mom, don't talk nonsense. This matter has nothing to do with Su Chen. It's all my problem. I made grandpa unhappy."
Ye Qingcheng quickly persuaded her, but she herself was also in a very low mood.
"Mother-in-law, don't talk nonsense! Don't you think this was premeditated by some people?"
Su Chen said in a cold tone.
"What?"
"Could it be that the patriarch..."
Lan Xiang, Qing Zhu and others were very smart and instantly heard the hidden meaning of Su Chen's words.
"Stop guessing! This matter ends here, I believe grandpa!"
Ye Qingcheng interrupted everyone, but her constantly erratic eyes showed that she was also very tangled in her heart.
Lin Yun felt sorry for her daughter and did not confront Su Chen again.
Su Chen did not provoke Ye Qingcheng any more, but secretly said in his heart: "If it's really because you dislike the gift I sent, forget it. If they really repay kindness with hatred, I won't agree!"
Just when the banquet was about to begin, an excited shout suddenly came from outside.
"City Lord Liu, come to wish me a happy birthday!"
This shout startled everyone present.
As soon as people picked up their chopsticks and wine glasses, one piece fell.
Not because of the high pitch, but because of the identity of the visitor.
Liu Qing, a master at the pinnacle of the True Martial Realm, was officially appointed as the Lord of a City by the Kingdom of Chu. He was in charge of military and political power and could be described as a Tu Emperor.
Such existences are extremely arrogant.
On weekdays, people would kneel down and beg City Lord Liu, but they still couldn't deliver the gifts just like this.
"Really or not, is City Lord Liu here in person?"
"It's impossible, right? What kind of person is City Lord Liu? I've never seen him come out to celebrate his birthday in person?"
Many people looked outside in disbelief.
Although the City Lord's Mansion also has contacts with some large and small families in Beihuang City, it is enough for these large and small families to feel honored that they can send some small gifts from their servants during the holidays, which can be regarded as reciprocity.
In the entire Beihuang City, no one is qualified to ask City Lord Liu to come forward in person to give gifts and celebrate his birthday.
In the past, when the Zhang family was still the largest family in Beihuang City, Liu Qing did not come forward personally when the head of the Zhang family celebrated his birthday.
But after a while, people saw several Ye family members enthusiastically surrounding a middle-aged man with a strong physique and a majestic face walking in.
That man was walking like a dragon and a tiger, and he was full of momentum. He was none other than City Lord Liu Qing!
