Chapter 164 At the Banquet
In the morning, the Wei Mansion was filled with joy.
Inside and outside the palace, there were lights and decorations, and it looked festive.
Even the servants and maids had happy expressions on their faces.
Today is a great day for the young master to become his apprentice. Madam and the others will surely give him a lot of rewards. They have already received a portion this morning. How can they not be happy?
At this time, the guests had not arrived yet, and Ma Gu was sitting in the Youzhu courtyard, dressed neatly in gorgeous clothes.
"Master Ma, relax a little. Today is the auspicious day for you to officially accept the young master as your apprentice. You should be happy."
Seeing that Ma Gu seemed a little restless, Lu Qing comforted him.
"That's true, but I'm still a little nervous." Magu said with a wry smile.
"Anyway, no one dares to cause trouble in the Wei Mansion, and the young master really wants to take you as his master, so just relax and follow the procedures." Lu Qing said with a smile, "You even survived such a dangerous situation that day, are you still afraid of this small ceremony of taking you as a master?"
After being comforted like this, Magu's heart finally calmed down a lot.
Originally, according to the Wei family's intention, the apprenticeship ceremony should be held at the Ma family, with Wei Xinghe bringing Wei Zian to become apprentices.
But when the Ma family heard this, they immediately panicked and quickly declined.
Are you kidding? What is the status of the Wei family in the county? How dare they let Wei Xinghe, the head of the family, take such a low posture?
Moreover, they are just a small family in the county, so how can they suppress the various forces that come to congratulate them?
Finally, after discussing with the chief steward, they decided that it would be better to hold the apprenticeship ceremony at the Wei Mansion.
At least, no one dared to act wildly in the Wei Mansion.
"Master Ma Gu, Young Master Lu, the chief steward said that the auspicious time is approaching, so I am here to invite you over."
At this time, a servant came forward and informed respectfully.
"Brother Lu Qing, let's go over there."
"Okay." Lu Qing nodded, then shouted to the room, "Xiaoyan and Xiaoli, get ready to go."
"Brother, can we go out and watch the fun?"
After hearing this, the two little guys ran out of the house.
They heard the noise outside early in the morning and were very curious.
"Well, let's go out and have a big meal!"
Lu Qing picked up Xiaoyan and walked out with Ma Gu.
Xiao Li also jumped onto his shoulders and looked outside with anticipation.
As for the old doctor, he will not attend the apprenticeship ceremony, and even Wei Shanhe will not attend.
As powerful people in the innate realm, if they showed up, everyone at the banquet would be on pins and needles.
Halfway through the journey, Magu, led by his servants, went to the main house to make preparations.
Lu Qing took Xiaoyan and Xiaoli to the front yard.
When we arrived at the front yard, we saw that it was quite lively here and many guests had already arrived.
He activated his special ability and took a few looks, and found that the people who came were basically the heads of various families and forces in the city, which gave the Wei family enough face.
Xiaoyan and Xiaoli looked around with wide eyes, feeling that everything was new.
Lu Qing's arrival also triggered some changes.
The heads and leaders of various forces who were originally chatting loudly, when they saw Lu Qing, immediately stopped talking and stared at him blankly.
"Master Li, why are you silent..."
A warrior at the same table laughed and looked in the direction of Patriarch Li's gaze, then his words got stuck in his throat and he couldn't utter them.
The other guests also saw Lu Qing at this time.
As a result, the courtyard, which was originally noisy, suddenly became quiet.
Almost all the guests looked at Lu Qing with awe and dared not make any more noise.
This scene caught the eyes of several disciples from Qingyun Sword Pavilion not far away and immediately aroused their interest.
"Young Master Lu, Young Lady Lu, you are here. The head of the family has specifically instructed that your positions are here."
Wei, the chief steward who was entertaining the guests, saw Lu Qing coming and quickly led him to the most important table.
There were already a few people sitting there.
Among them, there was a couple that was quite special. They had low cultivation and looked a little reserved as they sat there.
"Thank you, Chief Steward."
Lu Qing didn't hesitate to sit down with Xiaoyan and nodded to the people sitting there.
"Let me introduce you to Mr. Lu. This is the head of the Ma family, and these two are Master Ma Gu's parents."
Chief Steward Wei knew that Lu Qing knew very little about the county, so he introduced him to it.
Lu Qing suddenly realized. He was still a little puzzled. This couple didn’t look like important people, so why could they sit in the chief seat? It turned out that they were Ma Gu’s parents.
"Hello, uncle and aunt, hello, Master Ma. My name is Lu Qing, and I am Master Ma's friend. You can just call me A Qing." Lu Qing said with a smile.
"No, no, Mr. Lu, you are really embarrassing us." The head of the Ma family said hurriedly.
Just kidding, he witnessed the fight between Lu Qing and the martial arts master with his own eyes that day.
Facing such a top warrior, how could he dare to address him in such a pretentiously high manner?
Magu's parents looked even more reserved.
Although they are honest, they are not stupid.
Judging from the changes caused by Lu Qing’s coming in just now, and the personal introduction by Chief Steward Wei, as well as the current attitude of the head of the family.
How could I not know that the young man in front of me must be some great figure?
I just don’t know when my son got to know such an important person.
To be honest, until now, Magu's parents still have some doubts, whether they are dreaming.
Although on weekdays, they are also proud of their son.
After all, he was born in a side branch, but he was able to cultivate to the muscle and bone realm and become an important pillar of the clan. Such an achievement is enough to make them proud.
But the fact that his son wanted to take the young master of the Wei Mansion as his apprentice was really too unbelievable.
Even though they had known the news for several days and were now sitting in the Wei Mansion, they still felt a little dizzy.
Seeing that the head of the Ma family was chatting with Lu Qing in a somewhat flattering manner, the guests at other tables, far from looking down on him, were a little envious and jealous.
A top warrior like Lu Qing has an even more mysterious and powerful master in the innate realm behind him. Who wouldn't want to please him?
The Ma family is really lucky. Not only is Ma Gu going to become the master of the young master of the Wei family, but now he is also getting established in a relationship with Lu Qing. I'm afraid they are really going to rise.
However, despite their jealousy, the guests did not dare to show the slightest dissatisfaction.
Because Lu Qing was there, everyone even lowered their voices when chatting, and were no longer as relaxed as before.
This aroused the interest of the Qingyun Sword Pavilion disciples even more.
"Brother Li, who is that young man? How could he be so powerful? It seems that all the guests here are in awe of him?"
One of the Qingyun Sword Pavilion disciples asked with a smile to a young man sitting at the same table.
Most of the people at their table are of similar age.
Most of them are the heads of each family, who bring the more outstanding younger generations in the family to see the world.
The young man who was asked looked confused at this time: "I don't know either. This young man looks unfamiliar. We have never seen him before."
