Chapter 258

The master of ceremonies called out, "A pair of hundred-year-old fleeceflower flowers, a pair of hundred-year-old ginseng …"

Although there weren't many things, no gold, silver, jewels, jade or antiques, but the celestial path had been destroyed for ten thousand years, the Qi of heaven and earth was thin, even the quality of medicinal herbs had declined. Normally, it was rare to see things that were decades old, but this guy actually raised his hand and brought out hundred-year-old medicinal herbs, and they were even mature, how could it not shock everyone?

How could it make Old Master Ma and the master of ceremonies lose their composure?

These things couldn't be exchanged with banknotes, even if they were presented with banknotes of equal value, how could it be so captivating?

No wonder Kong Rang was in a difficult position.

There were some things that couldn't be bought even with banknotes.

Old Master Ma beside Ma Rulong, although he was full of vigor, at this moment, his expression was not normal, everyone thought that the old man was overjoyed, but he himself had unspeakable bitterness.

His own status in Jianghu, his heart was like a mirror, how could he be worthy of the Righteous Alliance's generosity, the reason why they offered such generous gifts, of course, they hoped that he would return the favor, but how should he decide, how could he choose with just a generous gift?

Qiu Xidao took out a folding fan out of nowhere, gently waving it, proudly listening to the master of ceremonies' slightly trembling shout, quite like an elegant young master in the chaotic world. Actually, Qiu Xidao was indeed worthy of being the fourth son, not to mention that he was handsome and elegant, just the fact that he could marry Old Master Ma's direct granddaughter, and be able to become the disciple of the Righteous Alliance's ninth deputy chief, Chang Xin, no one dared to say anything.

Unfortunately, while Qiu Xidao enjoyed bathing in the admiring, jealous, and surprised gazes of the crowd, he keenly sensed that something was different in a certain direction. In the distance, Mr. Qin's disdainful gaze, Ying Fei's ridiculing gaze, and Zhang Xiaohua's soulless expression, who was sitting on an inferior horse with a blank expression, seemed to have nothing to do with Qiu Xidao. All of these were like sharp thorns that pierced into his proud heart.

However, Qiu Xidao still remembered his status, and the master of ceremonies was also very far away, he couldn't vent his anger on him for no reason, so with a "shua" sound, he closed his folding fan and prepared to walk inside.

Speaking of which, this action was quite disrespectful. Your Big Grandfather was still standing, giving you face and listening to your gift list, yet you wanted to move first.

What kind of person was Ma Rulong?

He immediately said, "My dear grandson-in-law, are you tired?

Why don't you go in and rest for a while? When the banquet starts, I'll call you out to meet the guests. "

Qiu Xidao smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, Grandfather. I am indeed a bit tired."

Ma Rulong said, "Let's go. I've already asked the servants to clean up Yajing's room. You'll be satisfied."

After saying that, he gave way to Qiu Xidao. How could Qiu Xidao be willing to go first?

Seeing this, Ma Rulong felt relieved and walked into the courtyard first. Qiu Xidao followed closely behind.

However, as soon as they passed through the corridor, Qiu Xidao seemed to have thought of something. Looking at the chrysanthemums planted in the courtyard, he exclaimed, "Grandpa, look, your chrysanthemums are really good!"

Ma Rulong was stunned. He stopped walking and muttered in his heart. These chrysanthemums were just casually planted by the servants. What was there to praise? Could it be that there was a hidden meaning in his words?

Therefore, she also walked to the chrysanthemum flower bed and accompanied Qiu Xidao to admire the chrysanthemums.

As they admired the chrysanthemums, they also tried to sound him out, not knowing what Qiu Xidao meant.

Qiu Xidao's ears were listening outside. His eyes also occasionally glanced outside the door. He only casually responded to Ma Rulong's probing, causing Ma Rulong to be confused.

There were many people who came to the Ma Manor to celebrate the birthday. It was not an exaggeration to say that there was an endless stream of horses and carriages. Moreover, everyone brought many gifts. The Master of Ceremonies had to sing a little more and it took a lot of time. When Ying Fei brought Lord Qin to the manor, Qiu Xidao was already waiting impatiently inside.

According to Ying Fei's thoughts, with his lord and his family's status, there was no need for them to line up here. If they directly rushed into the Ma Manor, then wouldn't Ma Rulong bow and welcome them?

However, Lord Qin knew that the current situation was not the same as before. The gifts from the Righteous Alliance said a lot. He was still willing to hide at the side and watch and listen.

Sometimes, it was very interesting to go incognito.

However, he did not think about it. With a head full of white hair, he would be eye-catching wherever he went. How could he hide from the Ma Family's eyes?

Moreover …

The Master of Ceremonies looked at the luxuriously dressed but ordinary-looking person in front of him and was very surprised. He asked again, "Hero, are you sure you are here to celebrate the birthday?"

"Yes, I am sure, I am sure, and I am sure!"

"You did not send an invitation, nor did you prepare a gift. You …"

See, Lord Qin's dream of going incognito was immediately shattered!

Let's not talk about your white hair or your ostentatious behavior. At the very least, you should prepare a 'meager gift'. Un, let's just say that you don't have any banknotes. You're relying on your 'admiration' of Old Master Ma's reputation to come and pay your respects. At the very least, you should have a name card. Coming to pay your respects empty-handed, let's not talk about your status. Anyone would label you as an 'idiot' or 'freeloader'.

In fact, it wasn't that Yingfei or Lord Qin didn't have experience in Jianghu and didn't know the ways of the world. It was just that with their reputation, wherever they went, they would be respected and flattered. This Ma Mansion couldn't even flatter them. How could they give up their pride and give a congratulatory gift to the "servant" in their eyes?

If Zhang Xiaohua did not concentrate on comprehending the 《Earth Evasion Technique》, she would naturally remind him. Coming empty-handed was also a laughingstock in the countryside.

As for the name card, Ying Fei, as the messenger of the Heavenly Sect, this identity was a supreme name card. Why would he prepare one?

However, the master of the ceremony had seen a lot of the world. Moreover, the Ma Family had told him in advance that there were many heroes in the wilderness. There were some who were unconventional and some who were independent. He did not know what kind of background everyone had. The purpose of the birthday celebration was to have a lively atmosphere. Anyway, the Ma Family did not lack food and wine, so there was no harm in eating and drinking for free.

Therefore, the master of the ceremony smiled and asked, "Old Master Ma is the most forthright. He is very willing to make friends with a nameless hero like you. However, please tell me your name so that I can record your name in this grand occasion. It is possible that your name will go down in history in the future."

"Pfft!" Ying Fei almost spat out. He looked back at Lord Qin and said, "Okay, just because you said that I will go down in history, I will let you know that the lord behind me is Qin Shiyue, Lord Qin. My name is Ying Fei."

The master of the ceremony said, "I know. If the one riding behind is a servant of your family, then you don't have to tell me your name."

In fact, the master of the ceremony was also puzzled. If it was a servant, then it would be natural for him to come before Ying Fei. However, if it was not a servant, then this young man's clothes were not as good as the other two and the horse he was riding was also inferior. Therefore, he asked.

Ying Fei thought for a while and said, "This young man is not a servant. He just came with us to see the world. His name is Ren Xiaoyao."

The master of the ceremony smiled and said, "I know, Lord Ying."

Then, he shouted, "Qin Shiyue, Ying Fei, Ren Xiaoyao, these three heroes are here to congratulate Old Master Ma on his birthday!"

As soon as the master of the ceremony finished, a shadow shot out of the courtyard. Before the person arrived, his voice was heard, "Haha, so you are here to take advantage of me. You still have the face to tell me your name. Qin Shiyue, Ying Fei, and what Ren Xiaoyao. How come I have never heard of these names in Jianghu?

You still call yourself a hero. You don't deserve any honor! "

When everyone looked over, they saw that it was Young Master Qiu Xidao who had already entered the courtyard.

Qiu Xidao's arrival was sudden and his voice was loud. Everyone turned to look at him. Even Zhang Xiaohua stopped and looked at him in confusion.

Qiu Xidao walked forward and said to Lord Qin with a sneer, "This brother with extraordinary skills, is your name Qin Shiyue?

Your name is not bad, but it is not famous. Where is Brother Qin going to make a living?

If you are not happy, you can come to the Righteous Alliance. I am not talented, but I can find a good job for Brother Qin. At least, the next time Brother Qin goes to a senior's place to congratulate them, you can't go there for nothing. You will lose face, right? "

Qin Shiyue was being pointed at and lectured. His face was even warmer. He only smiled and did not speak. It was rare for him to have self-restraint. Zhang Xiaohua beside him did not think so. From what she knew these two days, Qin Shiyue usually had an amiable appearance. If he frowned or was angry, it meant that it was normal. However, the more he smiled and the warmer he was, it meant that it was not good. At least when he sealed Zhang Xiaohua's acupoints and tortured her, his face was like a spring breeze.

Zhang Xiaohua knew that things were not good. Looking at Qiu Xidao's good appearance, she felt that it was a pity. She said anxiously, "You young master, you are really unreasonable. How is my master unbearable as you say?

It's just that he admires Old Master Ma very much. He was in a hurry and forgot about it. In a while, when he pays a visit to Old Master Ma, I will come out and help my master complete the etiquette. "

Qin Shiyue glanced at Zhang Xiaohua. He had a good impression of her.

That was because no one was willing to be pointed at and lectured, even if he already had the intention to kill.

Ying Fei also laughed and said, "Who are you?

Is there any place for you to speak in the Ma mansion? "

Qiu Xidao was greatly amused, he said, "I knew you are ignorant and inexperienced. Let me tell you, Xiao Ye is the husband of Ma Laoyezi's eldest granddaughter. Tell me, do you think I have the right to speak in this Ma Mansion?"

Ying Fei said again, "Although Old Master Ma is old, there are many uncles in the Ma mansion. There is no place for you to speak."

Qiu Xidao smiled and said, "The people of Jianghu are in charge of Jianghu matters. My teacher is one of the nine Alliance Leaders of the Righteous Alliance, Nan Fengyun. You tell me, do I have the right to speak in the Ma mansion?"

In Qiu Xidao's expectations, once Nan Fengyun's name was brought out, wouldn't these three idiots of Jianghu be scared witless?

Even if they did not know Nan Fengyun's name, as long as they were people of Jianghu, how could they not know about the Righteous Alliance?

And of these three people, two of them were wearing bright clothes and had good horses. They should know about the Righteous Alliance and would not not give him face.

Unfortunately …
