Chapter 39 The dispute over the oil bottle
The banquet in the Duan Mansion suddenly became quiet. It was the junior table where Tang Yue and Duan Yitang were sitting. Some people secretly looked at the person being ridiculed.
Tang Yue put down her chopsticks with a snap and turned directly to the young woman who said these words, "Sister, are you talking about sister Yitang and me?"
The woman was a little embarrassed. She didn't expect Tang Yue to ask so bluntly. Shouldn't most people be ashamed and angry?
She had no choice but to continue: "Who is the dragster, don't you know in your mind?"
"I really can't tell who is the dragster. Sister Yitang is from the direct lineage. My talent in cultivation is outstanding, and my future is limitless. Although my city is small, it can still support me. I came here today to get acquainted with the Duan family, not for the sake of gain."
"Is it possible that you don't know who you are? A famous distant relative who feels that he has taken advantage of the Duan family for a long time, is he going to repent in front of everyone and demean himself as a dragster? "
"You!" The young woman was a little annoyed when she heard this.
"Sister, you really don’t have to be like this. You also know that the Duan family has always been generous to relatives, and the cultivation of younger generations is also for the sake of the Duan family’s future. You really don’t have to feel too guilty, as long as you remember to repay the Duan family in the future That’s fine.”
The young woman is angry, what does it mean to be unknown? Although her cultivation level was low and her connections were far away, she was still a serious member of the Duan family. Why did Tang Yue, a person with a foreign surname, say that to her?
"How have I ever taken advantage of the Duan family?" she said angrily.
"Then what you are eating today are the wine and food you brought yourself? Sister, I am really ashamed of myself. I also want to thank the Duan family for their generous hospitality. I didn't expect that you would go further. In order not to owe The favor actually brought food and wine.”
“How could I bring food and wine?”
“Then I don’t understand. You obviously ate at the Duan family’s banquet and didn’t pay for it. Money, how can you say that you don't take advantage of it? Do you regard the Duan family as your own property?"
The other man saw that Tang Yue was getting further and further away from the topic. After going there, he answered: "Sister Yiqian didn't mean that. She has always been a person who repays every kindness she has received."
Tang Yue looked at the young man with a square face and big eyes. He doesn't look ugly. After thinking about it, he didn't remember who he was. "This brother, I don't know his name. What is his relationship with the Duan family? I am Tang Yue, from Kunwu City, and I am Elder Duan." The one she brought here is the elder from Tianwai Peak of Wuji Mountain who is sitting at the main table.”
The young man frowned, who didn’t know that she was brought by Elder Duan? Today was the wedding banquet prepared for Elder Duan. She was the eldest son of the eldest son. She had just introduced him to the two of them, but she didn't remember him?
"I am Duan Wenxuan, and my father is Duan Yingfei, the eldest son of Duan, who is also elder brother of Duan." He was afraid that Tang Yue would regard him as an unknown distant relative.
It turned out to be the eldest son’s direct grandson, no wonder he was looking for trouble. In Tang Yue's mind, there were countless novels about family fights in which the eldest son was mediocre and jealous of the talented second brother, causing trouble for the second brother and his family.
“Oh, it turns out to be Brother Wenxuan. I have a question and I would like to ask Brother Wenxuan to help me answer it.”
Duan Wenxuan was puzzled, "What is the problem?"
"Who is the oil bottler that Sister Duan said just now? I must find out today."
"Also "The white fish at today's banquet was brought by me. It is unique to Wuji Mountain. This sister Duan really ate my food and took advantage of me. I want to ask, who is the dragster? "
Duan Wenxuan has a headache. Why does this Miss Tang have such an unforgiving character? She is not gentle at all. She doesn't look like everyone's lady, and she is completely unlike her sisters.
He had no choice but to signal to Duan Yiqian and let her resolve the matter.
Duan Yiqian curled her lips. It was clearly her aunt and him who had told her to embarrass Duan Yitang, so why did she have to apologize herself. But there was no other way. She was now living in the Duan family and had to make a living at the hands of her eldest aunt, so she had no choice but to apologize.
"Sister Tang, I'm sorry. I didn't say you were a dragster just now. You misunderstood."
Tang Yue glanced at Duan Yitang, she was indeed a little insulted. expression, but okay, she knew that Sister Yitang could still bear it.
"Then you are saying that Elder Duan's only daughter, Sister Yitang, is a dragster?" With that, she took Duan Yiqian's hand and walked to Elder Duan's main table.
“Let’s ask Elder Duan if his daughter is a drag, and let Elder Duan make a judgment on your remarks.”
She hurriedly grabbed Tang Yue, "No, no, no, I didn't say Duan Yitang was a dragster, it was me, I was a dragster."
She didn't dare to come in front of Elder Duan, in case he got angry. Even if he slaps himself to death, he can't reason with him. Originally, she saw that Tang Yue and Duan Yitang spoke softly and only answered the elders' questions without taking the initiative to speak. I thought the two were timid, weak and could be bullied. He didn't dare to tell Elder Duan that he was sarcastic to them.
I didn’t expect that this young lady from Kunwu City would completely ignore her face and make a big fuss in front of others. To make it clear, she didn’t dare to continue.
"Oh, it turns out you are talking about yourself. Now I have to say something wrong with you, Sister Duan Yiqian. If you have any discouraging words, you should go back to your room and say them to your own people. You should not say them at the Duan family's banquet today. , said it in front of everyone. "
" Let others hear that the Duan family treats you harshly, which is bad for the reputation of the Duan family. This should not be your repayment. " Duan Yiqian's face turned red and she was a little embarrassed, but she could only continue to apologize, "It's not my fault. I shouldn't say frustrating words in public. The Duan family has been very good to me, and I am very grateful to them."
After talking for a long time, Tang Yue finally decided to let her go. The juniors at their table looked at each other, knowing that this girl with a foreign surname was not easy to bully, so they gave up their intention to bully the student.
Duan Wenxuan is a little unhappy. In the past, others would support him and follow him. After all, he is the eldest grandson of the Duan family and is very likely to become the head of the family in the future. How can he be directly criticized in the face like today? .
And he was very dissatisfied with the attitude of everyone in the Duan family towards Uncle Duan. When he returned home today, his relatives and elders seemed to be celebrating the Year of Jiazi.
The monks dislike celebrating the New Year every year as a waste of time, so they celebrate the New Year every sixty years. This shows how happy the Duan family is to the return of Elder Duan.
Obviously his father is the eldest son, and it is not his second uncle who wants to inherit the family business, but the Duan family is so looking forward to his second uncle's return home. Even though his grandparents still complained about his second uncle on the surface, in fact they happily held a banquet and called it " Important uncles and aunts in the clan came to attend.
Duan Wenxuan and Xiu Fumei felt a sense of threat in their hearts, so they asked Duan Yiqian to make Duan Yitang look bad and make her feel uncomfortable.
It would be better if Duan Yitang is psychologically fragile. After hearing this, if he gets sick again or dies, his second uncle will suffer a heavy blow and will no longer be able to compete with his father for the position of head of the Duan family. His The position of young master is saved.
He still couldn't hold it back and provoked: "Sister Duan has been ill for a long time. Uncle Duan must have regretted that he could not have a healthy daughter. Now that he is better, he has a healthy daughter."
Duan Yitang spoke on her own, "Cousin, I have undergone the rejuvenation formation to reshape my body. Not only is my physique perfect, it is also excellent. This body is better than yours. Now my father has two healthy daughters. , we will naturally find the road as soon as possible and make our father proud of us."
Duan Wenxuan felt heartbroken when he thought of the treasures of heaven and earth that Duan Yingda wasted on Duan Yitang. If these things were used for himself, he might already be. He is the youngest golden elixir cultivator in Liuzhou Continent. He formed elixir earlier than Chu Tianshu.
But he couldn't say it directly, so he reluctantly said: "Uncle Duan has worked hard, but fortunately it was not in vain."
Duan Yitang smiled at him, "That's natural, my father only has me. This daughter, thanks to the Rejuvenation Formation, now has the qualification of Tianpin Fire Spirit Root. I will practice hard and will not let his hard work go in vain."
Duan Wenxuan was a little stimulated and drank. After taking a sip of fruit drink, his aptitude is just like that of his father, which is not good. He is a middle-grade earth-fire spiritual root.
Elder Duan, who was sitting in the middle seat, smiled slightly. He was always observing the junior table with his mind. He was worried that Yitang and Ayue would be bullied, but he did not expect that they would handle it well.
Xiufumei felt strange when she saw her second brother smiling. Her cultivation level was not as high as that of Elder Duan, so she did not distract herself from looking around in situations like this where all the elders in the family were present, so as not to bump into the elders. Naturally, she didn't know what her second brother was laughing at.
He just said: "Second brother is in a good mood."
Elder Duan laughed, "My daughter is now in good health and has outstanding qualifications. I have another righteous daughter who is eloquent. Girl, of course I'm in a good mood."
"Congratulations to the second brother." The second brother is happy, but she is not happy.
When she returned to her courtyard and communicated with her son and niece, she realized that the two of them had been squeezed by the two women at the banquet, and they almost couldn't hold their heads up.
He said with hatred: "A woman without a mother, a girl with a foreign surname, is so arrogant."
Duan Wenxuan said worriedly: "Mother, my second uncle is famous, and Duan Yitang's qualifications are so high. , will the Duan family let her second uncle inherit it in the future?"
Xiu Fumei was silent for a while, "I will never let this happen. I paid so much, the Duan family must be. Yours.”
The Duan family’s entry into the ancestral hall was completed smoothly on the second day. Tang Yue had experience in entering the Xuanwu Town ancestral hall, so he was familiar with it this time and could teach Duan Yitang some etiquette procedures. .
In fact, this morning Xiu Fumei also mentioned that Duan Yiqian should be admitted to the ancestral hall. She is a branch of the family and has not yet entered the ancestral hall at such an old age. It happened to be that the ancestral hall opened today, so she was included in the ancestral hall.
He was ruthlessly rejected by the Duan family head and Mrs. Xiu. Only those with meritorious service or heirs can enter the ancestral hall. Not everyone can enter.
Duan Yiqian watched the three people leaving reluctantly, and her expression fell into Xiufumei's eyes.
Entering the ancestral hall means that the Duan family members are recognized by the ancestors of the Duan family and are blessed by the True God Suzaku. Their treatment is also different from that of the Duan family members who have not entered the ancestral hall. Duan Yiqian dominates the main family and tries her best to please Xiufumei and her son. Just to get a chance to enter the ancestral hall and be recognized as a member of the Duan family.
Unexpectedly, it has been almost three years since she came here, but nothing has come true. However, Duan Yitang and Tang Yue became recognized as Duan family members as soon as they arrived. One has a good father, and the other has a good life.
