Chapter 253: Toad?

Feeling that Alice was frightened by his actions, Gervais didn't dare to wave, and stopped approaching, after all, now he has received a lot of jealous eyes, and he has reached a small peak of life, in case he goes too far, it is not good to be happy and sad.

Following Alice's graceful steps, Gervais and Alice followed the path pushed by the crowd to the high platform at the front of the hall.

Once on the high platform, Alice gracefully pulled out the slender jade hand that was on Gervais's arm.

"Thank you so much for coming to my birthday party!"

"Let me introduce you to my husband, this is my husband - Gervais Gale!"

"Because of the rush of the wedding, I didn't invite everyone to attend last time, so I apologize to everyone and hope that today's dinner will satisfy everyone! Now the banquet has officially begun! ”

Bang Bang Bang ~

As Alice's words fell, the guests in the hall raised their hands and applauded enthusiastically, and the musicians on the sidelines also began to play beautiful music after Alice's words fell.

Although the banquet had begun, the guests did not start moving immediately, but took out the gifts they had prepared and prepared to give them to Alice on stage.

This is also the reason why Gervais cares about choosing a gift for Alice, because the birthday party customs in this world are too uncomfortable for a poor person like Gervais.

Birthday gifts must be given in front of everyone, the more precious the gift is, the stronger it means that the stronger their own strength, the more face they have, of course, the gift given can suppress others, in addition to being able to get face, there are substantial benefits.

In order to show the host's return for the gift to the guest, the host of the birthday party will dance the first dance of the banquet or ball with the person with the most precious gift, the first dance at the banquet dance is always the most important, and the person who can dance the first dance with the host is definitely the most beautiful boy tonight.

And the host of today's birthday party is Alice, the goddess of coldness, if whoever gives the most precious gift tonight, then he can dance this first dance with Alice, even Gervais can't stop it, this is the rule of this world.

"Evelyn! What gift did you bring today? Can you show me? ”

"You show me your gift first."

On the sidelines, seven or eight gorgeously dressed young men and women gathered together, several of them were Alice's classmates, and they came from the royal capital, except for two of the women, several young men all had thoughts about Alice, and today they finally seized such a good opportunity, of course they will not let it go.

"What's the use of you arguing over it, maybe Alice's husband can come up with a better gift!"

The two girls saw that the young men beside them were all focused on Alice, completely ignoring the results of their elaborate grooming today, and suddenly poured cold water on them and said.

"Haha! Celia, don't worry! We still have faith in our gifts! ”

Several young men scoffed at the girl's words, and Gervais was lucky enough to be married to Alice, they were envious, jealous and hateful, but when it came to power and wealth, these people were confident that they could not continue to let Gervais continue.

……

At this moment, Gervais saw that many young people in the field were eager to try, and his eyes revealed anticipation and nervousness, and his heart was tired.

Since it is dancing, it is indispensable to hug the waist and shoulders, and they have been waiting for such an opportunity for many years, but even their own legitimate husband has not hugged Alice's little waist, and they have to be hugged by other groping pigs, how to make Gervais feel good.

In the past, Alice's birthday basically did not hold a ball, because of this kind of thing, only a grand ball was held in the year of Alice's coming-of-age ceremony, but at that banquet, Alice's first dance partner was the old earl, and no one had any opinion on this, after all, the old earl was not only Alice's father, but also the golden peak knight.

But today is different, the old earl is missing, and Gervais is the second son of a baron, so he will never be able to give a gift that suppresses the audience, after all, the value of the gift cannot be faked in front of everyone's eyes.

This is the best opportunity for the young people present who want to get close to Fangze.

The wolves in the audience looked around, and Gervais wanted to go down and beat up all the young people present.

It's a pity that at this moment, there are all people in the principality, even if Gervais is not afraid of offending them, but he can't let the Jones family become the target of public criticism, among the people present, except for the representatives of the counts, others were invited to participate, which shows that even if they are not allies of the Jones family, they are also neutral roles.

Just when Gervais's thoughts were flying, a young man finally came up from the audience, this young man was extremely well-dressed, his hair was combed shiny, and he looked polite, and at this moment he was holding a delicate silver box in his hand.

"Beautiful Alice! Happy birthday congratulations! This string of black pearls from the Bobo West Coast is a gift from me that I have specially prepared for you, I hope you will enjoy it! ”

When the young man walked up to the stage, his eyes were full of strange light, and he looked very gentlemanly and saluted Alice, and then opened the silver box in his hand as he spoke, revealing a beautiful pearl necklace in the silver box that exuded a moving luster, the pearls on this necklace were not large, only the size of a red bean, small and delicate just for a young woman like Alice to wear.

"It's a black pearl! Oh my God, that's worth at least 60 gold coins, right? ”

"Poof! You really don't know, the more than 60 gold coins you mentioned are black pearls from the coast of our principality. Did you see the surface of the pearl in the man's silver box? The black pearl of the Bobosi coast is undoubted. Pearls on the Boboxi Coast will have a peculiar halo on the surface, and this effect can be seen wherever there is a bright light. And the black pearls of our principality will not have such a halo, and the production of Bobosi black pearls is scarce, so this string of pearls is worth at least more than 100 gold coins! ”

"I think it's more than that, you see that each of those black pearls is very round and even, and the condition is excellent among Bobosi black pearls, at least it is a lot more gold than the usual Boboxi black pearls."

"Shhh Who was that young man who could give such an expensive gift? ”

"He's from the royal capital, and the Laurel Chamber of Commerce is the ...... his father opened"

At this moment, many nobles in the field began to talk about the gifts given by the young man, and these discussions also reached the ears of the young man and Gervais, and the young man heard the discussion in the field, and naturally raised his head with more momentum, and looked at Alice's eyes faintly expecting Alice's appreciation.

And Gervais heard the price of this string of pearls, but the corners of his mouth twitched, a string of pearls was worth hundreds of gold coins, could it be that he lived in the deep mountains and old forests some time ago, and the gold coins were so worthless!

Continuing to look at the necklace in the young man's silver box, Gervais remembered those rare props in the online game in his previous life, because those rare props will have their own light effects, and the black pearl necklace in the silver box in front of him is exactly like this, although the pearl is black, but the surface is flowing with a halo, soft and mysterious.

Gervais had to admit that if Alice wore this chain around her neck, it would be an absolute match, and it would highlight Alice's goddess posture even more.

This made Gervais even more worried, compared to the Bobosi Black Pearl given by the young man, how he should take out the necklace worth 10 gold coins in the ordinary copper box in his pocket.

When Gervais was struggling with whether he could give his gift, Alice also made a move!
