Chapter 129 Receiving Gifts



"Please sit wherever you like. We just moved in and haven't had time to prepare tea to entertain the guests..." Mengqin sat sideways on the armchair, supporting her chin with one hand, revealing her arms as white as jade.

"Haha~ You're welcome, Fellow Daoist Lai. This is a little gift from me, please accept it." Park Ji presented a storage bag with both hands, his old face wrinkled with smile.

? ?t5?\k??_?zu??4 "My last name is not Lai, don't shout nonsense..." Mengqin's words directly choked Pu Ji's chrysanthemum face into a constipated face.

"This is a little gift from Liao..."

"This is a little gift from Rao..."

The other two, unwilling to be left behind, quickly handed over their storage bags and cast mocking glances at Park Ji without hesitation.

Yue Niang, who was serving in the front hall, quickly stepped forward to collect the storage bag and handed it to Meng Qin. Meng Qin waved her hand and said, "You take it first, and I'll give it to the maid later."

At this time, Qiao Laowu came outside the door and reported: "Senior Meng, Aunt Liu has brought people and is waiting outside."

"Let her wait a moment." Lai Siyu walked in from outside the door, followed by Xue Sha.

The people from the three major families quickly bowed and greeted Lai Siyu.

Lai Siyu was wearing a moon-white gauze dress with gold edges today. The double hairpins on her head had been replaced with flying fairy hairpins. With skin as white as snow and delicate and small facial features, she was also a fresh and elegant beauty.

The flutter of her feathery black eyelashes was enough to stir up a river of spring water.

Lai Siyu looked at the visitor's reaction with satisfaction, thinking that the hairstyle was indeed perfect and the temperament was noble.

It seems that the decision to change my hairstyle today was a wise one.

"Why are you here today..." Lai Siyu sat on the armchair next to Mengqin and asked.

"We are here to visit fellow Taoist and give him a gift for his new house." Liao Buqun said with a bow.

The other two nodded in agreement.

Lai Siyu sneered in her heart. If she hadn't shown off her skills in front of them yesterday and frightened them, then these people would not have come to give gifts today, but to ruin the party.

"Thank you for your courtesy. How can I accept your gifts?" Lai Siyu responded with a smile.

"It's nothing, just some worthless little gadgets!" Rao Heng said quickly.

"Yes, yes, please don't be disgusted, Brother Lai!" Park Ji also said.

"Yes, it's indeed not worth a few spirit stones." Liao Buqun also said with a smile.

Lai Siyu revealed a look of astonishment. "I see. I thought the gifts I asked the clan leaders to give me were worth at least 20,000 spirit stones, if not 10,000. Turns out they're not worth much... In that case, Yue Niang, please give the gifts to the children to play with!"

The three of them twitched their lips when they heard this. You really can't judge a person by appearance. A bandit is still a bandit. No matter how beautiful she is, she is greedy for money with a clear conscience and has no restraint at all.

"Wait a minute, fellow Daoist. Although it's not worth a few spirit stones...you should take a look first."

"Yeah, these things may not be suitable for children to play with..."

"Friend Lai, you should take a look first. Maybe you will like it."

The three of them all raised their hands to wipe the sweat off their face. This little girl was really something. Didn't she know that saying it was worthless was just a way of being modest? Did they have to tell the other two people in front of them that the gift was worth so many spirit stones?

"Is that so? Okay, Yue Niang, please keep it for me first. I'll take a look at it after the guests leave and then decide whether to reward it or not." Lai Siyu said to Yue Niang, as if the three people were invisible.

Is it reasonable to discuss how to deal with gifts in front of guests?

"The gifts have been delivered. Does anyone have anything else to say?" Lai Siyu asked again.

"Nothing, just came to see fellow Taoist..."

"Since there's nothing else, I won't keep you here..."

The three of them didn't expect Lai Siyu to send them away directly without even asking for a meal, so they had to say goodbye awkwardly.

When they saw Aunt Liu when they went out, they all gave her a look that frightened her so much that her legs trembled.

"Bring the person in so I can see him." Lai Siyu shouted in the hall.

"Hey, here they come." Aunt Liu calmed herself down and quickly led sixty young men and women with good looks and figures in.

Lai Siyu looked at the men and women standing with their heads bowed in the hall. Surprisingly, all of them had cultivation. The lowest level was the third level of Qi training, and the highest was the seventh level of Qi training.

This situation was something she had never expected.

"Sixth Aunt, I remember I told you that I wanted people with cultivation aptitude, but I didn't say I wanted people with cultivation skills?"

"Young Master, no, Clan Leader, these servants were carefully selected by us... Clan Leader may not know that in Black Cliff City, only food and elixirs are valuable, people are actually worthless... Besides, these people were given to Clan Leader by the three major families." Sixth Aunt answered carefully, her forehead covered with sweat, afraid that saying something wrong would draw Lai Siyu's wrath.

She never imagined that the little girl who came to her palace in disguise that day had such a great background.

Everyone knows what happened in Black Cliff City yesterday!

"In that case, then you can keep the person here." Lai Siyu said without thinking.

Only a fool would not want something that is delivered to his door.
