Reborn: All beasts recognize their master, dig up the divine bones
Chapter 2233 Is there a Beggars' Gang here too?
Although everyone was complaining in their hearts, they spoke words of blessing and presented the gifts they had prepared.
During the banquet, Mr. Long Erye's mouth was raised the whole time, which made the Second Lady sitting next to him feel like she was in a very mixed mood.
"Ms. Nangong has facilitated such a good thing, didn't you prepare any gifts?" The Second Lady couldn't help but complain when she saw Nangong Xi was only focused on eating the food in front of her.
"Gifts? Of course there are." Nangong Xi said as he took out six golden lotus seeds and six longevity locks from the space.
"This is a gift from me. I wish the six brides to have babies soon." Nangong Xi said as she placed the gift on the tray that she signaled the servants to bring.
"Thank you, Miss Nangong." The six brides stood up together to express their gratitude.
The Second Lady gnashed her teeth when she saw this scene. She found that everything Nangong Xi did was causing trouble for her.
"Thank you, Xier." Uncle Long also bowed to Nangong Xi to express his gratitude.
"Uncle Long, you're welcome." Nangong Xi smiled and shook her head.
She couldn't help but feel a little ashamed. It seemed that Uncle Long had been enduring for a long time, and this time taking a concubine really satisfied his wishes.
What a sin, what a sin!
“Xixi, you actually saved those six girls in disguise. After all, with their backgrounds, if they were not sold to subsidize their families, they would just marry into any random family. Not only would they not have enough food or warm clothes, they might even be beaten to death and have no way to seek justice.” Long Chenluo, who was standing aside, spoke up when he saw Nangong Xi’s expression.
"They are not without cultivation, so why are they living such a miserable life?" Nangong Xi was full of surprise.
"Their cultivation is low, so they have no value in the eyes of their families." Long Chenluo explained.
"So that's how it is. No wonder so many girls came forward when they heard that the Long family was recruiting concubines." Nangong Xi sighed.
"These are the lotus seeds of the Red Fire Golden Lotus. They can be used to strengthen the body." Someone exclaimed after seeing the lotus seeds that Nangong Xi sent out.
The eyes of several concubines lit up when they heard this. After all, with these lotus seeds, their children would be able to have their bodies tempered and their talents would not be too bad.
"Thank you, Miss Nangong." The six concubines walked up to Nangong Xi and knelt down in front of her.
"Today is your big day, get up quickly." Nangong Xi looked at them with a smile.
The six concubines nodded and turned back to their seats.
The Second Madam's face became even gloomier when she saw this. She looked at the lotus seeds of the Red Fire Golden Lotus on the tray.
If I had lotus seeds, my Hua'er and Yang'er would be able to change their physiques.
She began to think about how to snatch the Red Fire Golden Lotus seeds from these concubines.
As the banquet continued, it was time for the concubine to offer tea to the second wife, the main wife.
The second wife looked at the six beautiful concubines kneeling in front of her, her face as gloomy as water.
"Are you just going to send me away with a cup of tea?" The Second Lady couldn't help but glance at Lianzi.
When everyone saw this, they immediately understood what she meant.
It seems that the second lady can't wait to snatch the treasure.
The six concubines looked at each other when they heard this.
"Of course not. Serving tea is basic etiquette. We have also prepared a gift for the Madam." After the six concubines said this, they took out the gifts they had prepared.
They were all made by the six concubines themselves, including clothes, shoes, hats, outer robes, and sachets...
When everyone present saw this, they all praised the six concubines for their thoughtfulness.
When the second wife saw the things in the hands of these concubines, her face became even gloomier.
What she wanted was their lotus seeds. Who wanted those worthless things they made?
"Madam, this is a little gift from us. I hope you don't mind it." Seeing that the Second Madam remained silent, the concubines quickly spoke up.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were on her, the second wife had no choice but to order people to take the things away.
"We don't think we can keep the lotus seeds and the golden lock. I wonder if Grandpa would be willing to keep them for us first and give them to us when our child is born?" Aunt Jiang, who was personally chosen by Uncle Long, suddenly spoke up.
"Okay." Old Master Long was a righteous man, so he agreed without thinking.
"Thank you, old man." The concubines' eyes lit up when they heard this. They naturally trusted Old Man Long.
Old Master Long walked to the tray and put the red fire golden lotus seeds and golden lock on it into his own space.
"Dad, we don't know if they have children yet, but Yang'er and Hua'er need to change their physiques, so why not..."
"This is the wedding gift Xier gave to them. It belongs to them, not to you, so don't think about it." Grandpa Long said unhappily when he heard this.
Upon hearing this, the Second Lady didn't dare to say anything more.
Nangong Xi: ...
I didn't expect that the lotus seeds that I picked casually from the space were treasures in the eyes of these people.
"Miss Nangong, do you have any lotus seeds of the Red Fire Golden Lotus? My grandson has been weak since birth, could you sell me one?" An old man with several holes in his clothes walked up to Nangong Xi.
Nangong Xi felt a little embarrassed when she saw him like this.
Is there a Beggars' Gang here too?
However, this old man has a pure soul and a sincere attitude, and he is not a bad person.
"Grandpa, I see that it's not easy for you. I have one lotus seed left and I'll give it to you." Nangong Xi took out a lotus seed and handed it to him.
Nangong Xi knew that some strong men devoted themselves to cultivation and regarded money as dirt. Although they were powerful, they might not even have a single gold coin on them.
For people like this, I am willing to lend a helping hand.
The old man was startled when he heard this, and then he looked at his ragged clothes and felt a little embarrassed.
It seems that the little girl misunderstood.
What a kind girl she is. She must have thought that she was having a hard time because she saw all the holes in her clothes.
"Well... the reason I look like this is because the alchemy furnace exploded just now and I didn't have time to change clothes before I rushed over to see... attend the banquet. It's not because I'm poor." The old man explained.
Nangong Xi: ...
It seems that the old man is in a hurry to watch the show. Who would be so anxious to attend a banquet?
"Little girl, I know you are kind, but it is not easy to get a treasure. Here is 100 million, take it." After the old man said this, he stuffed a gold coin card into Nangong Xi's hand.
Nangong Xi: ...
It was so embarrassing that I actually mistook the rich old man for a pauper.
"Grandpa, you gave me these gold coins, and I will give you a pill that can detoxify your body." After saying this, Nangong Xi took out another detoxification pill.
"Little girl, how did you know I was poisoned? Do you know medicine?" The old man was very surprised when he heard this.
"Yes, it is a little bit like that." Nangong Xi said with a smile.
"Xier, he is not an ordinary old grandfather. He is Mr. Cheng Nuo, the number one alchemist on Guiming Island." Grandpa Long pointed out the old man's identity.
