Chapter 8: Birthday Celebrations

It's not that his vision is too high, these magic weapons and pills on the counter are indeed rare treasures in Baicheng, and most of the refiners are overhauled in the foundation building period, but it is far from enough to impress Li Hongdao, who is in the late stage of foundation building.

Li frowned lightly, and said suspiciously: "Brother Yuan, are you asking too much?" Although grandpa's birthday is important, my father must have prepared for the generous gift, and we, as juniors, can give gifts as long as we can fulfill our hearts. ”

Zhou Yuan shook his head and said: "No, this birthday is of great significance, uncle, they will definitely prepare a gift for Li Qingjiao, if the gift we give is bad, then the father-in-law will inevitably be said something ugly." ”

"However, if the Golden Crow Pavilion can't even be bought......" Li Qingmei said helplessly.

Zhou Yuan smiled lightly, turned his head and said to the white-robed maid beside him: "Hello, I need three catties of Chiyan stone, two catties of hundred-year-old dragon wood, and three and a half catties of chalcedony...... Can you help me get these materials ready?"

Zhou Yuan reported seven materials in one breath, and the white-robed maid was slightly shocked when she heard this, these materials added up to be worth no more than any one in the counter, but since these materials were needed, they naturally wanted to refine magic weapons, and immediately asked, "Childe wants to refine weapons?"

"Not bad. ”

After receiving an affirmative answer, the white-robed maid was even more surprised in her heart.

Dharma weapons and elixirs are essential things for cultivators, but alchemists and refiners are very few.

Alchemy and refining tools require not only talent, but also a lot of pills and practice.

And the young man in front of him, who has the ability to refine weapons at a young age, a young man with this talent, why has he never heard of her in Baicheng?

But seeing that he didn't want to say more, he had to suppress the doubts in his heart, and didn't dare to slack off on Zhou Yuan's requirements.

"With these, it should be about the same, it's just a little cheap old guy. After accepting the materials sent by the maid, Zhou Yuan smiled lightly, thinking of the grandfather who refused to even give a red envelope during the New Year, and he didn't have the slightest good feeling in his heart.

After returning to the courtyard, Zhou Yuan spent the rest of the time refining these materials in the room.

Early the next morning.

Zhou Yuan, who had been busy all night, held a piece of beautiful jade with a restrained divine light in each hand.

One of them was a gift prepared by Zhou Yuan for his grandfather.

Baicheng Li Mansion.

At this time, the Li Mansion was very lively, and the courtyard was full of eighteen tables of banquets, and all those who could participate in the birthday banquet were the big people of Baicheng.

Among them, there are some foundation building overhauls that can be discussed with Li Hongdao's peers.

But the most respected status is a young man who has a good time with Li Qingjiao, Yuan Tianhao.

The status of the City Lord's Mansion is respected, and he usually does not interact with the family of Baicheng at all.

And Yuan Tianhao is the son of the city lord, because Li Qingjiao has a good relationship with him, he specially came to support Li Qingjiao today.

His arrival undoubtedly added a lot of glory to this birthday banquet, that is, those who built the foundation and overhauled it took the initiative to salute it, and those girls who had not yet left the cabinet frequently sent autumn waves.

And Li Hongdao, who is the birthday star, is wearing a Xuanqing robe, and he accompanies Yuan Tianhao with a spring breeze, and even the wrinkles on his face have disappeared a lot.

Whether it was Li Jie, who entertained the guests at the banquet, or Li Qingjiao, who accompanied Yuan Tianhao, he was pleased.

The reason why Li Hongdao was able to retreat and practice with confidence was because Li Jie had managed the Li Mansion in an orderly manner.

Being able to have a grandson who drinks with the son of the city lord is the greatest pride in his life.

The son and grandson are so competitive, which makes his birthday so decent.

"Second Master Li, Young Master Yuan and Miss Qingmei have arrived!" Outside the gate, there was a loud singing.

Seeing Li Ao's father and son who appeared at the door, Li Hongdao looked indifferent.

The cultivators are indifferent to each other, although Li Ao is his own son, he has not been as good as Li Jie since he was a child.

Although Li Hongdao is over the age of six, the longevity of the monks in the foundation building period means that he does not have much affection for future generations.

It is enough to have an eldest son, Li Jie, to help him take care of the Li Mansion.

However, after Yuan Tianhao saw Zhou Yuan and the three of them enter the door, his eyes stayed on Li Qingmei's face for a long time, and he didn't know what to think.

Seeing that Li Hongdao did not speak, Li Jie still stood up for the sake of the innate pill that was about to be obtained, and led Li Ao and his son to take a seat.

It's just that Li Ao and the three of them, as the Li family, were not only not seated in the middle of the courtyard, but were in a seat that could be said to be a horn.

"Haha, second brother, you will be here today. I didn't expect that Young Master Tianhao of the City Lord's Mansion would come to congratulate the old man on his birthday, and the main seat would naturally be reserved for the distinguished guests of the City Lord's Mansion, so I can only ask the second brother and you and your nephews and nieces to be patient. Li Jiepi smiled and said with a smile.

These words are high-sounding, but when you think about it, they make no sense.

As members of the Li family, they had to give up their seats to outsiders at their relatives' birthday banquets.

If it is said that it is to take care of Yuan Tianhao, who was born in the city lord's mansion, it is clear that there are still many seats left in the middle of the courtyard, but Uncle Li Jie still arranges them in the most inconspicuous corner.

Li Ao's face was solemn, he knew that his relationship with his eldest brother was not good, and he did not please the old man, but he didn't expect that his eldest brother would do this.

"Second brother, be patient, take care of the overall situation. Li Jie said pretendly.

Li Ao looked at his son and daughter, and then at Li Hongdao, who was sitting on the main seat and talking happily with Yuan Tianhao, his clenched fist still loosened, and said lightly:

"Big brother, I'm saving a lot, you go get busy. ”

Today is his father's birthday after all, and as a son, no matter how much grievance he has, he can't make trouble at the birthday banquet.

He can't make his father's birthday unhappy.

He can't help it!

The banquet officially began.

"Grandpa Li, Shu'er will give you a coral stone carving, wishing you happiness like the East China Sea and longevity than Nanshan. Li Qingjiao's female companion Yuan Shu had a smile on her face and saluted with her hands.

Li Hongdao's face was flushed with a smile: "She is worthy of being the daughter of Brother Yuan's family, not only beautiful, but also polite and sensible." ”

After Yuan Shu heard the praise, he was even happier in his heart, and said some good words, which attracted the praise of all the guests.

Subsequently, Li Qingjiao's friends also congratulated him on his birthday and sent congratulatory gifts.

Li Hongdao's heart is even more happy, Xindao Qingjiao is not only as decent as his father, but also has a blue appearance in the way of making friends.

Thinking like this, Li Hong looked at Yuan Tianhao, and then at Li Qingmei, who was sitting beside Li Ao in the distance.

"If only the girl from the second family was so sensible. ”

"Brother Qingjiao, it's your turn. Yuan Shu shook Li Qingjiao's arm and urged.

Yesterday, they had already seen Li Qingjiao go to the Golden Crow Pavilion to prepare a birthday gift.

This gift, Li Qingjiao has been preparing for a long time, and it was ordered in Jinwu Pavilion a month ago, and it was not delivered to him until yesterday.

Li Qingjiao showed a smug smile, took out a jade talisman from his sleeve, and said:

"I wish my grandfather a long and happy life, and he will build to the next level. ”

Li Hongdao laughed, took the jade talisman into his hand, and injected it with a wisp of mana.

Suddenly, the light in the courtyard of the Li Mansion shone brightly.
