Tianyu Alchemy Lord
Chapter 56 The birthday banquet begins
The two of them were practicing, but they didn't pay attention. In the woods not far away from the yard, a figure flashed away.
"Okay, let me tell you why she refuses to marry into the Wang family. It turns out that she had an affair with her cousin a long time ago!" Jiang Minghao looked at the scene of the two people practicing together in the yard with a cold expression. , there was a sneer in his eyes, "If the Wang family knew about this, the scene would be quite exciting, right?"
"However, I won't expose this matter for now. I will expose it again at the critical moment and give this couple a fatal blow!" Jiang Minghao thought proudly as he disappeared into the woods.
…
The next day.
When the sky was just getting dark, the entire Jiang family was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, making it very lively.
Because today is Mrs. Jiang’s seventieth birthday!
Early in the morning, Su Chen jumped out of the bathtub of the body quenching bath and put on his clothes. If someone were present, they would be able to see that his exposed skin was as smooth as jade, flawless, and even looked a little crystal clear under the reflection of the morning light.
"In five more days, the body quenching bath will be completely completed!" Su Chen's eyes were bright and he was full of confidence.
Pushing the door open and going out, he saw Xu Yin and Jiang Tingyi, mother and daughter, already dressed in costumes, waiting for him outside.
"Xiao Chen, we are ready."
Next to Xu Yin, a servant was holding two boxes. The boxes contained obviously birthday gifts that Xu Yin and Jiang Tingyi were going to present to the old lady of the Jiang family.
Su Chen just glanced at it and looked away without interest. He did not prepare any birthday gifts for the old lady of the Jiang family. She was not related to him and had never given him a good look in her previous life. Naturally, he would not waste any energy or money on her.
"Xiaochen, at the birthday banquet later..." Xu Yin took a deep breath, with a bit of nervousness on her face.
"Auntie, don't worry!" Seeing her like this, Su Chen said, "The spot in Tianyue College should have gone to my cousin, and no one can take it away."
Xu Yin nodded, the nervousness on her face was gradually suppressed, she smiled again, nodded and said: "Let's go!"
The three of them set off for the Jiang family banquet hall.
At this moment, the banquet hall was already decorated with lights and colorful gongs and drums.
The banquet hall was filled with rare and valuable furnishings and furniture, making it look magnificent and luxurious.
"The head of the Wang family has arrived!"
"The head of the Ye family has arrived!"
"The head of the Zhou family has arrived!"
"The head of the Situ family has arrived!"
"Shopkeeper Wan of Guibaolou is here!"
"Master Liu of Tianying Martial Arts School has arrived!"
The Jiang family's butler, wearing a festive red robe, stood outside the door of the banquet hall, loudly announcing the origins and names of each group of guests.
Today's Jiang family can be said to have earned enough face. The other two heads of the three major families in Qinghe City, as well as dozens of other heads of martial arts families and representatives of other forces, nearly a hundred people, all came to participate. The birthday banquet of the old lady of the Jiang family.
Normally, if these people stamped their feet together, the entire Qinghe City would be turned upside down. But now, they are gathering together to congratulate the old lady of the Jiang family on her birthday.
"The Jiang family is really generous this time. The birthday banquet is really extravagant. I heard that we have booked the banquet in the private room of Zuixianju. Zuixianju will send someone to deliver the banquet in person."
"Not only that, it seems that the official alchemist of the Alchemy Guild was also invited to celebrate the birthday banquet. You know that the official alchemist has a respected status, and he usually doesn't even bother to attend these banquets."
"Hey, you don't know what these are. Today's birthday banquet will be attended by teachers from Tianyue College. They are distinguished guests from the imperial capital."
"The Jiang family is really embarrassed this time."
When Su Chen and his party approached the banquet hall, they heard such discussions.
The banquet hall was already full of people and beaming with joy.
In the middle of the banquet hall, a stage decorated with flowers was set up. A purple wood chair was placed firmly on the stage, and sitting on it was today's birthday girl, the old lady of the Jiang family.
The old lady of the Jiang family was wearing a bright red phoenix crown and colorful clothes. She was sitting upright on a chair. Her black hair was tied up high and there were only a few wrinkles on her face. She was extremely well-maintained. From a distance, she does not look like a seventy-year-old birthday star, but looks like a lady in her forties who still has charm.
This old lady of the Jiang family is also a legend. In the past, she was just a minor concubine of the Wang family. After marrying the old Patriarch Jiang, the old Patriarch Jiang stood out in the fierce competition and inherited the position of the head of the Jiang family. The old lady of the Jiang family also rose with the tide and became the wife of the head of the family.
Now, she has a family full of children and grandchildren, holds the position of an old lady, and enjoys all the glory and wealth.
At this time, Jiang Mingxuan and Jiang Minghao were on one side, accompanying Mrs. Jiang. From time to time, the two of them joked about something, making Mrs. Jiang laugh from ear to ear.
Jiang Shan and Jiang He, on the other hand, stood aside and greeted the guests with glowing faces.
"Second Madam, Miss Tingyi, Young Master Su Chen is here!"
Following this loud announcement, the smiles on Jiang Shan's and Jiang He's faces froze.
The name Su Chen sounded extremely harsh to their ears at the moment, making them feel uncomfortable.
Mrs. Jiang, who was smiling just now, suddenly lost her smile and her face turned cold.
As we all know, Mrs. Jiang has always disliked seeing her two non-biological sons, namely Jiang Hai and Jiang Feng. He even disliked Jiang Hai's wife and daughter.
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became subtle.
Xu Yin had long been used to it, and her face didn't even change at this moment. She walked to the front of the stage, knelt down and saluted Mrs. Jiang calmly, and said: "My daughter-in-law wishes the old lady to be as blessed as the East China Sea and live as long as the Southern Mountains."
Mrs. Jiang casually said "Hmm", frowned in disgust, and waved her hand as if to ward off flies: "Go and sit down!"
Jiang He chuckled: "Minghao, why don't you take your second aunt and cousin to sit down?"
Jiang Minghao lazily walked down from the stage, rolled his eyes, and said, "Follow me!"
Jiang Minghao first placed Xu Yin at the table belonging to the elders of the Jiang family, and then took Jiang Tingyi and Su Chen to the table belonging to the juniors.
"What is the background of this young cousin, Su Chen?"
"I don't know, maybe he's a relative of the Jiang family."
"Hush, I heard that Su Chen is extremely talented in martial arts and defeated two direct descendants of the Jiang family, Jiang Minghao and Jiang Mingxuan, in succession!"
"I heard that Su Chen is very talented in alchemy and is highly praised by Alchemist Qian."
Jiang Minghao's expression became increasingly uglier when he heard everyone's murmurings. He pointed angrily at the two empty seats on the junior table and said to Su Chen and Jiang Tingyi, "That's where you two sit!"
The two empty seats were in the middle of a group of Wang family children.
Among them, Wang Teng and others were also included.
