The First Immortal of Swordsmanship
Chapter 18 Birthday Banquet
Writer.
When Su Yi returned, he saw a lot of traffic outside the Wen family's mansion and a crowd of servants, making it a lively scene.
Today is the old lady's eightieth birthday, and the Wen family had started making preparations for it a few days ago.
Not only many members of the Wen family's branches will participate, but also many forces and important figures who are close to the Wen family will also come to celebrate their birthdays.
This incident has already spread throughout Guangling City and attracted attention from all directions.
Su Yi didn't take it seriously at all.
He is an unappreciated son-in-law. Whether he participates or not is destined to be ignored.
"Brother-in-law!"
As soon as Su Yi returned, he saw a handsome and graceful figure standing there, waving to him, with a smile on his pretty little face.
Wen Lingxue, a young girl in her twenties, pure and bright.
"Why are you standing here?"
Su Yi smiled.
"Of course I'm waiting for you."
Wen Lingxue stepped forward, took Su Yi's arm affectionately, and said crisply, "Brother-in-law, just now my mother said that when you come back, she wants you to attend the birthday banquet."
"I?"
Su Yi was startled.
Wen Lingxue explained: "My mother said this was my grandmother's order."
Su Yi narrowed his eyes slightly.
Wen Lingxue's grandmother was Liang Wenbi, the old lady of the Wen family. She was an old lady with a transcendent status in the Wen family. The patriarch Wen Changjing did not dare to disobey her orders.
Back then, Liang Wenbi had personally decided on his marriage to Wen Lingzhao. No matter how Wen Lingzhao's parents and other clan members opposed it, it was of no avail!
"Let's go."
Su Yi nodded.
After awakening the memory of his past life, he also thought about finding an opportunity to meet the old lady of the Wen family and ask about some things from that year.
The rows of mansions of the Wen family were extremely lively, with an endless stream of guests coming to celebrate their birthdays.
In Guangling City, the Wen family is one of the three major clans and has a good foundation. The current patriarch is Wen Changjing, and he has two younger brothers, Wen Changqing and Wen Changtai.
In addition, the Wen family has other branches. After many years of development, the Wen family now has thousands of members in total.
Today, many clan members and guests gathered together, and the scene was naturally extraordinary.
In the area where the clan hall is located, a sumptuous banquet has already been arranged.
"Lingxue is here."
When Su Yi and Wen Lingxue arrived, many boys and girls waiting outside the clan hall greeted Wen Lingxue.
These are all the younger generation of the Wen family, many of whom are similar in age to Wen Lingxue.
However, no matter who saw Su Yi, they all frowned and turned a blind eye.
A young man in brocade clothes was even more displeased and said: "Su Yi, who are you? There is no place for you here. Leave quickly and don't disturb our fun!"
Wen Shaobei.
A handsome man of the younger generation of the Wen family.
However, he was from a branch of the Wen family, and his status was not as good as that of Wen Lingxue, a descendant of the main line of the Wen family.
As soon as Wen Shaobei opened his mouth, everyone else laughed and agreed.
During this year in the Wen family, Su Yi, as a surrogate son-in-law, had always been looked down upon by the Wen family, who regarded him as a useless person. Even the servants dared to sneer at him.
Wen Lingxue said angrily: "Wen Shaobei, please listen to me. It was my grandmother who asked my brother-in-law to come to the birthday banquet! If you want to drive my brother-in-law away now, are you going against my grandmother?"
"This..." Wen Shaobei was suddenly speechless. The others were also stunned for a moment and shut up. They did not dare to disobey the old lady's order.
Wen Shaobei pretended to be cool and said: "Let's talk about our affairs and just pretend that this guy doesn't exist."
From this moment on, these young writers formed a small circle and isolated Su Yi from the outside. They ignored and ignored Su Yi.
Even Wen Lingxue, who was standing with Su Yi, was left out.
Su Yi naturally didn't care about this. He called Wen Lingxue aside and said softly: "Lingxue, after the birthday banquet is over, come to my courtyard. I have something to give you."
"Ah? What?"
Wen Lingxue was curious.
Su Yi smiled and said, "You will know then."
Just as he said this, a voice sounded——
"Cousin Jueyuan is here!"
Wen Shaobei and the boys and girls all looked over.
Even some guests and elders in the nearby area had their eyes fixed.
I saw a young man in white robe walking from a distance, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, a dignified appearance, and an outstanding appearance.
"Wen Jueyuan, the most outstanding young man of this generation of the Wen family!"
Some people lamented.
"It turns out to be cousin Jue Yuan."
Wen Lingxue also showed admiration on her pretty face.
Wen Jueyuan, the son of the patriarch Wen Changjing, entered the Songyun Sword Mansion to practice at the age of nine, and became an outer disciple of the Qinghe Sword Mansion at the age of thirteen. In just four years, he was selected as an inner disciple of the Qinghe Sword Mansion.
His cultivation has reached the fourth level of "bone refining" in the blood moving realm!
Such martial arts achievements, even in Guangling City, are enough to make some big shots feel incomparable!
Among the younger generation of the Wen family, Wen Jueyuan is like a leader.
"Today is my grandma's birthday. You all should behave well and don't let outsiders see our Wen family's jokes."
After Wen Jueyuan came over, he looked at Wen Lingxue, Wen Jueyuan and others, and gave a gentle warning.
As for Su Yi, he was also ignored by him.
"yes."
Everyone agreed quickly.
Wen Jueyuan nodded, went straight into the clan hall and sat down without saying anything more.
At this birthday banquet, only seniors in high positions or top figures of the younger generation are eligible to sit in the clan hall!
And people like Wen Lingxue and Wen Shaobei are not qualified yet.
This made them look at Wen Jueyuan with a hint of envy. When will they be able to do this?
"If sister is here, it will definitely be okay."
Wen Lingxue said with some regret.
No one refuted this statement.
Wen Lingzhao is now a disciple of Tianyuan Academy!
Just this status is enough to be on an equal footing with the big shots in the clan.
"As far as I know, this birthday banquet is extraordinary and extremely important to our Wen family."
Suddenly, a woman next to Wen Shaobei said softly.
"I also heard from my father that in recent years, rumors that are detrimental to our Wen family have been circulating in Guangling City, saying that within ten years, our Wen family will be removed from the three major clans in Guangling."
Another young man mused, "This birthday banquet is to resolve this matter. The more important people attending the birthday banquet today, the better it will be for our Wen family, and the criticisms and rumors in the city will be self-defeating." "
Wen Shaobei said: "Then it depends on the abilities of the eldest uncle and the second uncle. As for the third uncle, haha..."
He glanced at Wen Lingxue who was not far away and said no more.
In the main line of the Wen family, Wen Changjing is the patriarch, with great power and the widest network of contacts. There are many dignitaries and celebrities among the guests.
Wen Changqing is the second elder of the Wen family. He is in charge of various industries under the Wen family and also has very deep connections.
Only Wen Changtai, although he is the third elder of the main lineage, has an honest and mediocre temperament, coupled with his mediocre cultivation, he has almost no social interactions. His status in the Wen family is not high either.
If he were not the younger brother of Wen Changjing and Wen Changqing, he would probably be looked down upon even more.
Although Wen Shaobei did not continue what he said, how could Wen Lingxue not hear the underlying meaning?
Her pretty face sank. This guy had ridiculed Su Yi before, and now he was making fun of her father Wen Changtai. How could she not be angry?
But unfortunately, she couldn't refute.
She also knew that her father... was indeed too mediocre...
Thinking of this, Wen Lingxue felt a tightness filling her chest, and her mood became depressed.
A big hand patted her shoulder gently, and then Su Yi's voice sounded in her ears:
"Lingxue, in life, you will inevitably encounter cold looks and ridicule. If you are not strong enough, there is no harm in being patient. But if you have the ability to fight back, blindly forbearing and shrinking will only encourage others' arrogance."
Wen Lingxue thought for a moment, then took a deep breath and said, "Brother-in-law, I understand."
Finished.
She stepped forward to Wen Shaobei and said coldly: "Apologise."
The girl's expression was cold and her tone was as cold as ice, which made Wen Shaobei and others who were chatting in low voices stunned.
"Lingxue, what do you mean? Everyone is chatting, how have I offended you?"
Wen Shaobei frowned.
Wen Lingxue looked extremely strong at this moment, staring at Wen Shaobei with clear eyes like lightning, and said word by word:
"If you don't apologize, I will tell my uncle and them word for word what you just said. I want to see if they will forgive you!"
"I……"
Wen Shaobei's face looked uncertain.
Everyone around him kept their mouths shut and did not dare to get involved.
In any case, Wen Lingxue is from the main clan!
Her father is the third elder of the main lineage and the younger brother of the clan leader Wen Changjing. In terms of status, they are incomparable to the collateral clan members.
And Wen Lingxue's sister Wen Lingzhao is now a disciple of Tianyuan Academy, and even the clan leaders value her very much!
Under such circumstances, if Wen Lingxue revealed the matter, there would be no need to think about it. Wen Shaobei would definitely be the one to suffer.
"I say it again, apologize!"
Seeing Wen Shaobei's expression change and he remained silent for a long time, Wen Lingxue's expression became colder and colder. The sixteen-year-old girl actually gave people great oppression once she got angry.
Wen Shaobei lowered his head with difficulty and said in a voice like a mosquito: "I... was wrong..."
Wen Lingxue suddenly felt indescribable joy in her heart, and she said coldly: "Speak louder, I didn't hear you."
Wen Shaobei looked as if he had been defeated. He looked slumped and said in a bitter voice: "Wen Xue, I was wrong. I hope you won't care about it."
Looking at the others, they were all as silent as a cicada.
Seeing all this in his eyes, Su Yi couldn't help but nodded secretly.
People all need to grow.

ps: I found that there were a lot of messages from girls in Longtaolou, which felt so prestigious...
