I am in the world of immortal cultivation, I am taming beasts and ascending
Chapter 100 Dealing with the He Family
Now that the matter has been announced, her identity as Ye Liuyun will be clear, and there will be no need to talk about getting married for good luck anymore!
"Go! Have fun and eat more of what you like!" Mrs. Jiang signaled that she could sit back next to Shangguan Hanqing.
She nodded slightly and saluted, then walked back to her seat and sat down.
"Everyone! After three rounds of drinks, I got a new kind of good tea! Wow! It's especially fragrant! Everyone come and taste it!" Jiang Shan said.
The maid seemed to have been prepared. She put down the wine pot and replaced it with a teapot, and added half a cup of boiling hot tea to each person!
The fragrance of tea is elegant, and it is refreshing when you inhale it into your lungs along with the rising hot air!
"What good tea! This tea is definitely not ordinary! Brother Jiang is too stingy! He only gave me half a cup! Let me try it!" Zhang Tianyi grabbed the cup and wanted to drink.
"Wait a minute, brother!" Jiang Shan tried to stop him helplessly. His sworn brother was always impatient: "There's a reason why there's only half a cup of tea!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a maid came in from outside, holding a large porcelain jar on a tray in her hand. She stopped respectfully in front of each person, while another maid scooped two small ice cubes from the jar and put them into the teacup.
Except Jiangshan’s cup.
"When tea leaves in water meet ice, they are just about to open up, about to become thick but not yet clear, and the taste is excellent! Please try it!"
As he spoke, his eyes swept over the people below, memorizing every micro-expression on each person's face.
"There's actually this way of drinking! So novel! I'll try it first!" Zhang Tianyi was delighted, raised the cup to his lips and took a deep sniff: "What a nice smell!"
I took a sip and the fragrance lingered on my lips and teeth. I couldn't help but drink it all and still praised it.
"Brother Jiang, you have been hiding such good tea and not giving it to me! I am very unhappy about this!" He said with a serious smile that he was angry, but he did not look angry at all.
Everyone drank it and said it was really good tea!
But there was one person who kept his head down with a gloomy expression and never drank any water. This person was He Minzhi, the patriarch of the He family.
How could Jiangshan not notice it? After all, he was the highlight of today's banquet.
He just smiled and sounded very caring.
"Why doesn't Sect Master He taste it? This tea is extremely rare!"
He Minzhi forced a smile with difficulty and refused, "I'm not lucky enough to eat this! I've been having stomach discomfort lately!"
"Then you should taste this tea!" Jiang Shan's chief moved in front of him, held up the teacup with both hands and handed it forward: "This tea has the effect of warming the stomach and lungs! Please, Master He!"
If he did not accept Jiangshan's polite invitation, it would seem that He Minzhi was arrogant.
I hesitated for only a moment and heard some criticism.
"Thank you, Sect Master Jiang!" He Minzhi also took the cup with both hands and moved it to his mouth with a slight tremor.
Suddenly, his hand slipped and the cup fell to the ground, splashing tea all over the floor: "Oh! What a sin! Such good tea is wasted! Master Jiang, please forgive me, I really have no chance to drink this tea!"
He waved his hands and laughed at himself, constantly blaming himself for being careless for a moment and wasting Jiangshan's good intentions!
"This little tea is nothing! Someone, come! Serve more for Sect Master He!"
He said it generously, and the maid served the fragrant tea again, scooping out ice cubes and putting them into the tea.
"Please come in! Sect Master He!" Jiang Shan still politely but respectfully offered the teacup.
After this round of rejection, everyone realized that something was unusual!
In terms of friendship, these two families cannot be considered to be close friends. They are just two of the four major families!
In terms of strength, Jiang Jiading is number one!
If that's the case, why does Jiangshan have to be so polite and flattering? There must be something going on here!
Everyone inside and outside the hall was watching, waiting to see how He Minzhi would respond.
The smile on He Minzhi's face had long disappeared, and he even took the teacup with some panic. He moved his trembling hands to his lips, and when he was about to open his mouth, he suddenly looked up at Jiang Shan in front of him.
Jiang Shan still had a smile on his face, and looked at him with a warm and gentle look, but his eyes were extremely cold!
"Bang!" He Minzhi smashed the cup to the ground, jumped into the hall with an angry look on his face, stared at Jiang Shan and cursed,
"You are such a jerk! We came here to congratulate you, but you poisoned us! You are so crazy! All clan leaders! There is a worm poison in the tea just now! Everyone, spit it out!"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked!
The fact that Jiang Bai was infected with a poisonous insect was no secret at all, so at this moment they were skeptical and looked at Jiang Shan in fear and horror!
"Strange!" His strange eyes fell on He Minzhi inquiringly: "How can Sect Master He know so much?"
"Why do you care why I know? Everyone here, just vomit it out!" He did not want to answer Jiangshan's question directly, but instead urged everyone else to vomit quickly.
"Bang." The sound of porcelain pieces breaking came from the women's seat behind the screen, and a woman stood up tremblingly.
"Dad!" There was fear in her voice and she looked at He Minzhi for help, calling out softly.
"Xiu Lian? Xiu Lian!" He Minzhi was attracted by the voice at first, but when he saw the person clearly, he panicked as if he had just woken up from a dream: "You drank too?"
"Of course!" Jiang Shan answered for him, "Men and women are treated equally, how can we differentiate between them?"
"Jiangshan, you are such a devil, how dare you use such means on other people's innocent children!"
He was so angry that his eyes were bloodshot and he wished he could eat him alive!
"Hmm!" Jiang Shan was quite satisfied with his current state of mind: "Speaking of children, what has my son Jiang Bai done wrong?"
"What do you mean?" He Minzhi suddenly became alert, as if he realized something.
"Dad!" He Xiu Lian also felt that the atmosphere was wrong. This was obviously directed at their He family. She was anxious and wanted to rush over.
But it was not that easy. Two maids came up from behind and held her down, but they couldn't hold her down! They were in a mess.
Shangguan Hanqing's handsome face darkened, but his identity made it difficult for him to get things done.
There was a muffled "clang" sound, and a snow-white sword with black flames burning on it accurately brushed He Xiu Lian's toes, and sank into the wooden board along with her skirt.
There was an instant silence from the female members of the family. He Xiu Lian didn't dare to move and was pressed to the ground obediently!
"Thank you!" Shangguan Hanqing whispered to Liuyun.
She took a bite of dessert and said cheerfully, "Sister Hanqing, just let me eat more dessert!"
He Minzhi naturally saw what happened and was extremely anxious, because this was the only child in their He family!
Many guests were worried and uneasy. Although they wanted to know what the grudge between the Jiang and He families was, they wanted to know more whether the tea today was really as He Minzhi said.
There were crowds of people, and everyone was talking among themselves, and they finally became restless!
"What the hell are you arguing about?!" Zhang Tianyi stood up impatiently, snatched the teapot from the maid's hand, poured himself half a cup, picked up two pieces of ice from the jar and put them into the cup in public, shook it twice, and drank it all in one gulp.
After finishing, I picked up a piece and put it in my mouth, still not satisfied.
"I believe everything else, but I won't believe that my brother Jiang is harming people for no reason, even if you kill me! Today I will fight this ice cube!"
His generous character and unconditional trust calmed everyone down.
Jiangshan walked to the end of the hall, picked up someone's cup, put ice in the tea, tilted his head back to drink it all, and then showed the bottom of the cup to others.
He walked up to He Minzhi, narrowed his eyes slightly, and stared at him meaningfully.
"What is an insect poison? What is the relationship between ice and insect poison? Sect Master He, you seem to know a lot of things that we don't know?!"
His words were pointed and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
He Minzhi was forced to step back under this oppressive and suffocating gaze.
