The banquet in the Duan Mansion suddenly became quiet. It was the junior table where Tang Yue and Duan Yitang were sitting. Some people secretly looked at the person who was being ridiculed. Tang Yue put down his chopsticks with a "pop" and turned directly to the person who said these words.
The young woman asked, "Sister, are you referring to me and Sister Yitang?"
The woman was a little embarrassed. She didn't expect Tang Yue to ask so bluntly. Shouldn't most people be embarrassed and angry?
She had no choice but to continue: "Who is the procrastinator? Don't you know it in your heart?"
"I really can't tell who is the loser. Sister Yitang comes from a direct lineage and has outstanding talent for cultivation. Her future is limitless. Although my Kunwu City is small, it can still afford to support me. I came here today to become acquainted with the Duan family.
, not for the sake of gain."
"Is it possible that as an unknown distant relative, you have felt that you have taken advantage of the Duan family for a long time, and you want to repent in front of everyone today, devaluing yourself as a supporter?"
"You!" The young woman was a little offended when she heard what she said.
"Sister, you really don't have to be like this. You also know that the Duan family has always treated relatives with generosity and cultivated the younger generation for the sake of the Duan family's future. You really don't have to feel too guilty, as long as you remember to repay the Duan family in the future."
A young woman is angry. What does it mean to be unknown? Although she has a high level of cultivation and distant connections, she is still a serious member of the Duan family. Why does Tang Yue, a person with a foreign surname, say that to her?
"How have I ever taken advantage of the Duan family?" she said angrily.
"Then what you are eating today are the wine and food you brought yourself? Sister, I am really ashamed of myself. I also want to thank the Duan family for their generous hospitality. I didn't expect that you would go further and bring your own wine and food in order not to owe any favors.
"
"Why would I bring my own food and wine?"
"Then I don't understand. You clearly ate at the Duan family's banquet and didn't pay for it. How could you say you didn't take advantage? Could it be that you regarded the Duan family as your own private property?"
Another man saw that Tang Yue was getting further and further away from the topic, so he answered: "Sister Yiqian doesn't mean that. She has always been a person who repays every drop of kindness with a spring of water."
Tang Yue looked at this young man. He had a square face and big eyes, but he was not ugly. After thinking about it, he couldn't remember who he was. "This brother, I don't know his name. What is his relationship with the Duan family?"
I am Tang Yue, from Kunwu City, brought here by Elder Duan, the elder from Tianwai Peak of Wuji Mountain who is sitting at the main table now."
The young man frowned. Who didn't know that she was brought by Elder Duan? Today was a wedding banquet prepared for Elder Duan. He was the eldest son of the eldest son. He had just introduced him to the two of them, but she didn't remember him?
"I am Duan Wenxuan, and my father is Duan Yingfei, the eldest son of Duan, who is also elder brother of Duan." He was afraid that Tang Yue would regard him as an unknown distant relative.
It turns out that he is the eldest son's direct grandson, so no wonder he is looking for trouble. Tang Yue's Alarm Clock has appeared in countless novels about family fights in which the eldest son is mediocre and jealous of the genius second brother, causing trouble for the second eldest son and his family.
"Oh, it turns out to be Brother Wenxuan. I have a question and I would like to ask Brother Wenxuan to help me answer it."
Duan Wenxuan was confused, "What's the problem?"
"Excuse me, who is the oil bottle that Sister Duan mentioned just now? I have to find out today."
"Also, the white fish at today's banquet was brought by me. It is unique to Wuji Mountain. This sister Duan really ate my food and took advantage of me. I want to ask, who is the troll?
bottle?"
Duan Wenxuan had a headache. Why did this Miss Tang have such an unforgiving character? She was not gentle at all. She didn't look like everyone's lady, and she didn't look like her sisters at all.
He had no choice but to signal to Duan Yiqian and let her resolve the matter.
Duan Yiqian curled her lips. It was clearly her aunt who had asked her to embarrass Duan Yitang, so why did she have to apologize? But there was no other way. She was now living in the Duan family and had to make a living from her aunt, so she had no choice but to apologize.
"Sister Tang, I'm sorry. I didn't say you were a jerk just now. You misunderstood."
Tang Yue glanced at Duan Yitang. She did have a somewhat humiliated expression, but luckily, she knew that Sister Yitang could still bear it.
"Then are you going to say that Elder Duan's only daughter, Sister Yitang, is a slut?" With that, she took Duan Yiqian's hand and walked to Elder Duan's main table.
"Let's ask Elder Duan if his daughter is a liar, and let Elder Duan make a judgment on your remarks."
She hurriedly grabbed Tang Yue, "No, no, no, I didn't say Duan Yitang was a dragster, it was me, I was a dragster."
She didn't dare to go in front of Elder Duan. If he slapped her to death in anger, she wouldn't be able to reason with her. Originally, she saw Tang Yue and Duan Yitang speaking softly and only answered the elder's questions without taking the initiative to speak. She thought that the two
I am timid and weak and can be bullied. I dare not tell Elder Duan when I ridicule them.
Unexpectedly, this young lady from Kunwu City completely ignored her face and made a big fuss in front of others. She made it clear that she did not dare to continue.
"Oh, it turns out I'm talking about yourself. I'm going to say something wrong with you, Sister Duan Yiqian. If you have any frustrating words, you should go back to your room and say them to your own people. You shouldn't say them in front of everyone at the Duan family's banquet today.
Say it."
"If other people hear it, they will think that the Duan family treats you harshly, which is bad for the reputation of the Duan family. This should not be your repayment."
Duan Yiqian's face turned red and she was a little embarrassed, but she could only continue to apologize, "It's not my fault. I shouldn't say frustrating words in public. The Duan family has been very good to me, and I am very grateful to them."
After talking for a long time, Tang Yue finally decided to let her go. The juniors at their table looked at each other, knowing that this girl with a foreign surname was not easy to bully, so they gave up their intention to bully the student.
Duan Wenxuan was a little unhappy. In the past, others supported him and followed him. After all, he was the eldest grandson of the Duan family and was very likely to become the head of the family in the future. How could he be directly criticized in the face like today?
Moreover, he was very dissatisfied with the attitude of everyone in the Duan family towards Uncle Duan. When he returned home today, his relatives and elders seemed to be celebrating the Year of Jiazi.
The monks dislike celebrating the New Year every year as a waste of time, so they celebrate the New Year every sixty years. This shows how happy the Duan family is to the return of Elder Duan.
Obviously his father is the eldest son, and it is not his second uncle who wants to inherit the family business, but the Duan family is so looking forward to his second uncle's return home. Even though his grandparents still complained about his second uncle, in fact they happily held a banquet and called it "
Important uncles and aunts in the clan came to attend.
Duan Wenxuan and Xiu Fumei felt threatened, so they asked Duan Yiqian to make Duan Yitang look bad and make her feel uncomfortable.
It would be best if Duan Yitang is psychologically fragile. After hearing this, if he gets sick again or dies, the second uncle will suffer a heavy blow and will no longer be able to compete with his father for the position of the head of the Duan family. His position as the young master will be saved.
Already.
He still couldn't hold back and provoked: "Sister Duan has been ill for a long time. Uncle Duan must have regretted that he could not have a healthy daughter. Now that she is better, he has a healthy daughter."
Duan Yitang spoke on his own, "Cousin, I have undergone the rejuvenation formation to reshape my body. Not to say it is perfect, it is also excellent. This body is better than yours. Now my father has two healthy daughters. Naturally, we
We will find the right path as soon as possible and make our father proud of us."
Duan Wenxuan felt heartbroken when he thought of Duan Yingda's waste of genius treasures on Duan Yitang. If these things were used for himself, he might have been the youngest golden elixir monk in Liuzhou Continent, and he would have achieved elixir earlier than Chu Tianshu.
But he couldn't say it directly, so he reluctantly said: "Uncle Duan has worked hard, but fortunately it was not in vain."
Duan Yitang smiled at him and said, "That's natural. My father only has me as his daughter. Thanks to the Rejuvenation Formation, now I also have the qualification of Tianpin Fire Spirit Root. I will practice hard and won't let his hard work be in vain."
Duan Wenxuan was a little stimulated and took a sip of the fruit drink. He had the same qualifications as his father, which was not good. He had a middle-grade earth-fire spirit root.
Elder Duan, who was sitting in the middle seat, smiled slightly. He was always observing the junior table with his mind. He was worried that Yitang and Ayue would be bullied, but he did not expect that they would handle it well.
When Xiufumei saw her second brother smiling, she felt strange. Her cultivation level was not as high as Elder Duan's, so she didn't look around in a distracted manner when all the elders in the family were present, so as not to bump into the elders. Naturally, she didn't know what her second brother was laughing at.
He just said: "Second brother, please have a good heart."
Elder Duan laughed and said, "My daughter is now in good health and has outstanding qualifications. I have another adopted daughter who is eloquent. Of course I am in a good mood."
"Then congratulations to the second brother." The second brother is happy, but she is not happy at all.
When she returned to her courtyard and communicated with her son and niece, she realized that the two of them had been squeezed by the two women at the banquet, and they almost couldn't hold their heads up.
He said with hatred: "A childless woman with a foreign surname is so arrogant."
Duan Wenxuan worriedly said: "Mom, my second uncle is famous and Duan Yitang's qualifications are so high. Will the Duan family let my second uncle and her inherit in the future?"
Xiufumei was silent for a while, "I will never let this happen. I have paid so much, and the Duan family must be yours."
The ceremony for entering the ancestral hall of the Duan family was completed smoothly on the second day. Tang Yue had experience of entering the ancestral hall in Xuanwu Town. This time he was familiar with the process and was able to teach Duan Yitang some etiquette procedures.
In fact, this morning Xiu Fumei also mentioned that Duan Yiqian should be admitted to the ancestral hall. She is from a separate family and has not yet entered the ancestral hall at such an old age. It happened to be that the ancestral hall opened today, so she was included in the ancestral hall.
He was ruthlessly rejected by the Duan family head and Mrs. Xiu. Only those with meritorious service or heirs can enter the ancestral hall. Not everyone can enter.
Duan Yiqian watched the three people leaving reluctantly, and her expression fell into Xiufumei's eyes.
Entering the ancestral hall means that the Duan family members are recognized by the ancestors of the Duan family and are blessed by the Suzaku God. They are treated differently from the Duan family members who have not entered the ancestral hall. Duan Yiqian went to the ancestral hall and tried her best to please Xiufumei and her son, just to get a chance to enter the ancestral hall.
The ancestral hall is an opportunity to be recognized as a member of the Duan family.
Unexpectedly, it has been almost three years since she came here and nothing has come true. However, Duan Yitang and Tang Yue became recognized as Duan family members as soon as they arrived. One has a good father and the other has a good life.
