My husband is the villain

Chapter 104 The City Lord's Gift

Today is the official birthday.

In addition to the guests who arrived yesterday, there are also some new guests. Some of these guests came to the banquet out of courtesy for no other reason, and some of them were unable to come because of business affairs yesterday.

However, all the people who came to the banquet were from Qinglong City, except for one!
In the morning, Yu Man noticed that a special guest had come.

The guest was dressed in a brocade robe, came in low-key, gave a gift, congratulated and left in a hurry.

But the Qinglong family has special respect for this guest.

Ruan Mengjun explained that this person belonged to Emperor Dongluo, because the Qinglong family was a family in Qinglong City, and Emperor Dongluo would definitely send people to the banquet, but usually they would not stay for a long time, and would go back after giving the gifts.

"Then why don't you see other families come to give gifts?"

As famous as the Qinglong family are the Suzaku family, the Xuanwu family and the Baihu family. It is reasonable to say that they would also come to congratulate them, but they have not seen them until today.

"Of course it is the meaning of Emperor Dong Luo. If the four great families are closely related and close, it will inevitably not threaten the rule of Emperor Dong Luo. Therefore, Emperor Dong Luo has an unwritten rule for the four great families, that is : No big deal, keep silent!"

No big deal, don't make a sound!
If these four great aristocratic families join forces, Emperor Dong Luo will be emptied!
Therefore, except for necessary things, the four great families generally do not communicate with each other.

Yu Man lowered his eyebrows and thought!

After staying for a while, it was almost noon.

Yu Man finally met the legendary old man of the Qinglong family, who was also Yu Man's grandfather.

In the main hall, after all the guests were seated, the old man slowly came out.

The white-haired old man was slowly walked out with the help of his servants, and sat on the main seat. He was wearing a mighty and awe-inspiring robe with green dragon patterns, and his hair crown stood up high, which showed the grandeur of the old man back then.

However, what makes Yu Man feel wrong is that today is his birthday, but why does the old man not smile, his face is expressionless, like a puppet.

She looked at the others, and they didn't seem to react at all, and didn't feel anything unusual.

Yu Man could only temporarily suppress the doubts in his heart, and followed everyone to meet the old man.

The old man in the hall didn't say a word during the whole process, just sat upright, and the servants at hand helped to pass the message.

Yu Man became more and more suspicious, this was really weird, even if he didn't speak, there was still a mood swing, right?
But no one felt that there was anything wrong with it, as if it was all taken for granted.

Yu Man was puzzled, and Ruan Mengjun next to him explained in a low voice when he saw that Yu Man had been frowning at Old Man Qing from the moment he entered the hall, looking puzzled.

"Old man Qing is like this. He doesn't say a word at the birthday banquet every year, and he doesn't see anyone on weekdays. It doesn't matter who it is."

Yu Man's brows frowned even tighter. What's going on?

After a while, it finally came to the gift-giving link.

Facing the indifferent face of the old man, the major families put all their energy into giving gifts.

Starting with the one sitting at the front, the first one is the Santo.

I saw the city lord walking out step by step with vigorous steps.

The city lord's back was straight, and he was obviously very confident in his gift. This was the one he had been collecting everywhere in advance several months in advance.

"The lord of Qinglong City, a ninth-grade snow-veined wolf crystal, I wish the old man Qing a happy life!"

Snow Vein Wolf Crystal?Is it the ninth grade?

There was no sound in the hall, this snow-veined wolf crystal is no better than ordinary animal crystals, because of its growth environment, the spiritual energy contained in this snow-veined wolf crystal is extremely powerful, more useful than some pills, not to mention that it is still a ninth grade Yes, this is priceless in Azure Dragon City!
The city lord's gift is probably the most expensive gift among today's gifts!

Like everyone else sitting here, Yu Man was shocked when he heard it.

It's not easy to get this wolf crystal. The blood wolf can only be found in the frost and snow veins deep in the wild land. Yu Man has been there before, and that is not a place that ordinary people can go.

To obtain a ninth-grade wolf crystal, one must not only have strength, but also very good luck. It can be seen that the city lord has indeed put in a lot of effort.

The city lord took out a small exquisite box from the space ring, slowly opened it, and inside was a white transparent animal crystal, which had a very good luster.

But the old man Qing on the seat still didn't change his expression, staring straight ahead.

Everyone mourned.

The old man didn't even open his mouth. Could it be that he didn't like the city lord's gift?

The city lord seemed a little embarrassed, and after the servant accepted the gift, he stepped aside.

Qing Yuanhao and Qing Yuansi couldn't sit still, but the old man kept silent, and it was not a problem to let the city lord dry, so he hurriedly ordered the next one.

Seeing Yu Man's curious head looking left and right, Ruan Mengjun couldn't understand what this meant, so he covered his mouth and snickered again, explaining.

"Are you wondering why the city lord is a little disappointed?"

Yu Man nodded, she didn't understand why the city lord looked confident before giving the gift, but looked disappointed after giving the gift.

"Don't underestimate this gift. Whoever can impress the old man with the gift and let the old man speak will get a promise from the Qinglong family! The city lord gave such an expensive gift just now, and the old man didn't even open his mouth. He must be disappointed !"

Yu Man curled her lips. Looking at the situation, she felt that it was as difficult as going to heaven to get the master to speak up.

Ruan Mengjun looked at Yu Man's look of contempt, and felt very happy!

This little doll is really interesting.

"You don't like it. Naturally, some people are rushing to this! The promise of the Qinglong family can change the fate of many people! However, until now, no one can make the old man speak!"

"Isn't that a lie?"

"Shh-"

Ruan Mengjun's heart was in her throat, and she covered Yu Man's mouth. She looked around to see that no one noticed, so she was relieved.

Yu Man blinked and signaled that she understood, and Ruan Mengjun let her go.

Yu Man understood that maybe many people knew that they couldn't do it, but they still held the mentality of opening their mouths just in case, hoping that the old man would open their mouths.

She sighed slightly, human nature is always like this.

I saw that the next one was a young man whom Yu Man had never seen before, probably a member of a big family.

Full of confidence, this child carried out a carved flower made of spar. This spar is not a very high-grade spar, but it is not an ordinary one either.

The important thing is that this flower is one of the golden beetles that Yu Man saw yesterday. The carving is extremely complicated, with every stem and leaf extremely detailed and lifelike. Man was taken aback.

Everyone took a breath, and their eyes focused on the old man, expecting the old man's reaction.
