, wonderful and free of pop-ups! A group of people walked into the banquet hall, and people in the seats stood up one after another, and there was a constant stream of congratulations and birthday wishes. Although Yun Dingcheng was the birthday boy today, the throne was undoubtedly given to Yulan Emperor Lan Hao, who was accompanying him. The table on the left side of the hall is basically occupied by members of the Yun family and relatives, and the seats are naturally assigned according to the distance of friendship. Most of the people sitting on the right are Yundingcheng's best friends and life-and-death acquaintances. Perhaps knowing that the juniors were afraid of being restrained, they deliberately arranged the third generations who were similar in age together, and sat relatively outside, making it easier for them to run away if they couldn't sit still. It's a pity that such good intentions were not accepted by the juniors of the Yun family. They watched the song and dance performance in the yard and ate the dishes on the table without taste. Some of their eyes were anxious, some were nervous, some were uneasy, some were natural, and some were calm. In short, they had different expressions. Those who knew the cause expressed deep sympathy, but were helpless, and secretly prayed that the same thing would not happen to their old man on his birthday, so that they would also have to suffer the tragedy.
After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food, and the singing and dancing were coming to an end, the third generation brothers of the Yun family stood up one after another and walked into the inner hall. The next step was to send gifts to today's birthday boy. Other people's birthday gifts are just registered directly in the register. Although some have the intention to compete, Yunding Cheng is not happy with this method. Since it is a gift for him, he only needs to know whether it is good or bad and whether there is any intention. , He has no control over other thoughts in other places, but he can avoid them here. The third generation's birthday gift was all rejected by Yundingcheng on the first day they arrived, turned into a task, and became one of today's entertainment projects.
Seeing those bitter faces, Lan Hao first laughed: "You have created quite a problem for these boys!"
"No, prepare birthday gifts within three days, and the value cannot be more than one gold coin. It's not easy to stand out." Fu Songhe was in high spirits, wondering if he would also do this on his birthday. It looked quite fun. .
As the principal, Ming Songyan quite agrees: "It is also an opportunity to test their abilities. Just being able to fight and kill is not enough."
Yun Dingcheng stood up and pressed the button. The hall immediately became quiet: "Four days ago, I told the Yun family that I would not accept gifts worth more than one gold coin. But if you can prove that you relied on your own ability and did not rely on the Yun family to obtain the items, The price is no more than one gold coin, and I can accept it.”
"Actually, let me tell you, doesn't being older give you a big advantage? With their years of training, they should have more or less private goods." Lancang Xi protested the injustice on behalf of his younger cousins.
"Then why don't you think about the difficulties and dangers they encountered during their training? Both giving and receiving are relative." Lan Weian criticized.
"What good things can be bought with one gold coin in the Imperial City? And it's only three days, so there's no target to look for. Isn't this just a embarrassment?" Many people at the banquet began to whisper. Especially the Yun family, who had prepared gifts for their children and wanted to show their faces, now they just want the God of Light to protect them from being embarrassed in front of so many people. They complained in private before, and now they are even more so. We found someone to complain to.
Shui Hongxuan, who was in the corner, was shocked when he heard this. No, it couldn't be such a coincidence, or did the Duke know early on that he couldn't get the gift from Yun Tai and did it deliberately? If that were the case, he would have to give away the gift in his hand! Shui Hongxuan secretly wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve.
"Who comes first?" Just like what Lancang Xi said, in fact, Yundingcheng did not have high expectations for the birthday gifts of the younger family members. What he wanted to see were the few who stood out. What outstanding performance can you value?
"I'll go first." Yun Zhaomei stood up. He has also thought about it. He is the youngest among these people and has the weakest foundation. The later the gift becomes, the better it will be and the more contrast it will be. It is better to give it first.
"Yun Zhaomei, a member of the family, presented me with a fine steel dagger. I wish you a strong husband," Yun Zhaomei said.
"Bring it to me and have a look." When the servant handed over the dagger, everyone's eyes fell on the extremely simple dagger with a leather sheath.
The dagger was pulled out and a bright light flashed, causing the onlookers to squint their eyes.
"Okay." Fu Songhe couldn't help but slap the table. Although the materials used for this dagger are not top-notch, it can be seen that the craftsman who made this dagger is definitely a rare expert.
"One gold coin? How much do you have? The second uncle will ask for it." Yun Zhi looked at the child of Xiaoliu's family sympathetically. She wanted to challenge the old man's authority from the very beginning.
"I spent one gold coin. If the second uncle goes, it will be hard to tell." Yun Zhaomei said with a look on her face.
"Zhaomei, why are you talking?" Yun Diao at the table next to him glared.
Yun Zhaomei immediately shrank: "I'm sorry, second uncle."
"Where did it come from?" Lan Hao asked, playing with the dagger.
"..."
"Say it." Yun Zhaomei's mother was surprised. The gift has been given away, could it be said that the gift has not come from the right way? Her son can't be so brainless.
"This is Yun Taiqing's inventory, sold to me at a low price." Seeing that her father was about to fall out, Yun Zhaomei hurriedly hid behind her mother, and then helped her mother slap her shoulder in a very stupid way: "Mom, your My filial son has not forgotten you. I also took out a very delicate little golden bell. It not only has complicated hollow carvings, but also has a wind magic circle. As long as there is a little wind, this bell can play a complete piece of music. . It’s only ten gold coins. You’ll know it when you see it. The carving alone is worth it.”
"Really?" Yun Diao still didn't believe it.
"Of course it's true." Yun Zhaomei called out to Tianqu, "Lanyun Demonic Martial Arts Academy usually doesn't let people out of the school. Brother Yi and Brother Hao are going to participate in the Demon Fighting Competition again. How can I dare to win? This kind of thing bothers them. And grandpa doesn’t allow us to use the Yun family’s brand. After much deliberation, we can only try our luck at Yun Tai’s place. After all, she has also been on the battlefield, so she should have some trophies. "
Trophies? If others hadn't reacted yet, the eyes of the generals who had been on the battlefield became subtle. How could they not know what Yun Tai had been doing in the army for the past two years? Where else could her loot come from? It was ripped off a dead person! No matter how good this thing is, it cannot be given as a birthday gift! Yun Diao no longer cared about birthday banquets or etiquette, and began to roll up his sleeves...
This time, even his mother didn't protect him anymore. Yun Zhaomei ran away with her head in her arms. In the eyes of others, it was 'should'!
"Yun Diao, stop it and let Zhao Mei speak for herself." Yun Dingcheng knew that his grandson was not such an unreliable person.
"Yun Tai bought the dagger at the border market." Seeing her mother glaring at him, Yun Zhaomei quickly added, "So did Jin Ling."
"Border market?" Those who are not stationed at the border all year round naturally have no idea about this matter.
"It's gone now, and it won't be there again."
This counts as death without proof?
"Pange City is gone, how can there be a market?" Yun Zhaomei retorted confidently.
"This kid seems to be a lot more lively after arriving at Lanyun." Yun Zhi sighed. In his memory, this boy was very dull when he was a child. Every time he was bullied, he would not fight back and asked his brothers to help him regain his dignity.
"I think it's better to be more lively. It's enough to have facial muscle necrosis in the family. If there are a few more, people might think it's a hereditary disease in our family."
Yunying's words received a meaningful look from his eldest brother, and bursts of snickers from the others.
Loot clearance inventory? The other disciples of the Yun family were jealous. They didn't have much money, and their pocket money usually had a limit. Yun Zhaomei didn't tell them about such a good opportunity. It's a shame that they helped him teach those people a lesson when they were young. Where is the bastard who bullied him!
Yuntai is even more angry, Yun Zhaomei is so unjust! He said he had no contact with Yun Tai before, but now he gave the things he picked up from Yun Tai as gifts!
Yun Yi was also making calculations, and he directly set his sights on high-end trophies such as hover cars. He felt that it was necessary to remind Yun Tai later that if there were extra things and felt that they were taking up space, it would be best to inform their brothers, who had the financial resources, so that they would not lose too much.
"Okay. Zhaomei's gift is considered acceptable. Grandpa likes it very much." Yundingcheng agreed. Then his eyes scanned those disciples, and his meaning was obvious.
who is the next?
