Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor-Chapter 354 - 352: The Articulate Ye Chuxue
Chapter 354: Chapter 352: The Articulate Ye Chuxue
Due to the numerous guests, if all were to stay in the living room, it would definitely appear very crowded.
Therefore, the coming-of-age ceremony banquet was held in Tang’s Manor.
Inside the manor, flowers bloomed in profusion, and the ground was covered with high-quality silk red carpets. Nearly a hundred long tables were neatly arranged, each adorned with fresh flowers, fruit, and special pastries from Jiangnan.
The male butlers all wore well-cut black suits, each handsome and dashing, speaking and behaving with polite and appropriately gentle manners.
The female butlers wore dresses from the Republic era, tall and slender, especially their white, long legs revealed by the high slits, a sight too dazzling to take in all at once.
Such a high-end and classily arranged banquet, not to mention other grandchildren, even the eldest legitimate son’s wedding was not comparable to this grandeur.
The younger generation of the Tang Family, especially a few granddaughters the same age as Ye Chuxue, were all resentful towards Old Lady Tang’s partiality. However, given the Old Buddha’s formidable influence, they could only grumble in their hearts and did not dare to voice their complaints.
Just as the manor was buzzing with noise, a thundering, sonorous voice suddenly came from outside.
"Sixth Grandmaster Yuann and Second Young Master of the Yuann Family have arrived!"
Hearing that the Yuann Family had come, what originally sounded like a noisy market instantly quietened down. Everyone stopped and looked towards the entrance.
They saw an elder with greying hair, leaning on a walking stick, entering slowly with the support of a young man.
Upon seeing the visitors, Grandpa Tang and Granny Tang, leading the direct descendants of the Tang Family, hurriedly went to greet them.
The elder stood firm and said with a beaming smile, "Brother Tang, how are you and your wife doing?"
Granny Tang’s face broke into a smile, wrinkles and all: "Brother Yuann the sixth, what wind has blown you here?"
After speaking, she turned her gaze to the young man beside the elder, examining him carefully.
Sixth Master Yuann said with a smile: "Yuann Hua, come and pay respects to your Grandpa Tang and Granny Tang, maybe you’ll all be family in the future!"
Yuann Hua, somewhat reluctant, gave a slight nod out of courtesy, a form of greeting. However, his brows still carried an air of arrogance; he did not seem to take the people before him seriously.
Indeed, this was hardly surprising.
In Hang City, though the Tang Family might be considered one of the leading families, placed within the whole of Huaxia, they were at most just a bit famous.
The influence of the Yuann Family had long spread across the world, not only within Huaxia but also a super family to be reckoned with globally.
Put it this way, if the Tang Family were a koi, the Yuann Family would be a great shark.
How could a shark ever take notice of a koi?
Nevertheless, the infatuated girls of the Tang Family covertly watched Yuann Hua.
If he glanced their way, they would blush with excitement, just as if they were concubines the Emperor had just selected to favor, completely overwhelmed by emotion.
In the face of these infatuated females, Yuann Hua scoffed, his pride almost reaching the sky. He thought to himself: they say that Jiangnan produces beauties, but I see they are nothing special, all just mediocre and vulgar.
Sixth Master Yuann glanced at the young women of the Yuann Family, and asked with a chuckle, "Sister-in-law, which of your granddaughters is the protagonist of today’s event?"
Granny Tang pointed towards the back courtyard and said, "She’s still changing clothes in the inner courtyard, she’ll be out soon!"
"Wan’er, go hurry her up, tell Chuxue to make it quick!"
Tang Wan’er replied respectfully and hurried towards the inner courtyard.
In no time at all, she lifted the pearl curtain and called out, "Chuxue is here!"
With the sound of her voice, Ye Chuxue stepped forward with a graceful gait, approaching leisurely.
She had changed into a waist-cinched chiffon dress, slender as a willow, unsurpassed in grace. With enchanting smiles and glances from the corners of her eyes, her face featured light eyeshadow and delicate makeup, her features picturesque and charming.
Below the hem of her dress, a pair of fair, jade-like long legs glistened in the sunlight, translucent and lustrous. Up close, she resembled a lotus, emerging pure and transcendent. From afar, she seemed like an elegant orchid in a secluded valley, standing refined and dignified.
Beautiful!
Breath-takingly beautiful!
Even the prideful Yuann Hua found himself staring, dumbfounded. He had always thought that phrases like "sinking fish and falling geese" and other such compliments were exaggerations by the ancients. Now he realized that there really were such stunningly beautiful women in the world.
Ye Chuxue stepped forward and bowed to Grandpa Tang and Granny Tang.
"Grandpa, Grandma!"
Granny Tang was extremely pleased with her granddaughter’s appearance, and she took her small hand, chuckling, "Brother Yuann the sixth, this is my granddaughter, Ye Chuxue!"
Yuann the sixth was also very satisfied with Ye Chuxue. Although the Tang Family was just average, this granddaughter was indeed a top-tier beauty, and her looks alone meant his grandson wouldn’t be at a disadvantage.
"Sister-in-law, your granddaughter is truly beautiful, like someone who has stepped out of a painting. Even Xi Shi, if alive, would probably pale in comparison."
Hearing Old Six from the Yuann Family’s praise for her granddaughter, Granny Tang’s wrinkles spread into a smile.
Having been educated in the ways of the nobility from a young age, Ye Chuxue naturally knew her manners. With a charming smile, she approached and said, "Grandpa Yuann, you flatter me!" fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
Yuann the sixth glanced at Yuann Hua by his side and, seeing no displeasure on his face, he said to Granny Tang: "Sister-in-law, your granddaughter and my grandson, a case of a talented man and a beautiful woman, seem to be made for each other by heaven. How about this, our two families could unite with this union and add to familial ties, forming a great matrimonial relationship, how does that sound?"
