Christian Saiger sat down next to Millie Yoxall and said softly: "Honey, I'm sorry, I was late for something." Before Millie Yoxall could speak, his mother-in-law He Yunxiang, who was sitting next to him, glanced at Christian Saiger and said with a cold face: "What's the matter? What big deal can a waste like you do? I think the bus didn't catch up! Christian Saiger, today is a big deal. It’s the patriarch’s birthday, don’t tell me that you came empty-handed!” "Mom..."Christian Saiger was prepared to explain one last time for Millie Yoxall's sake. "Don't call me mom, it's all you damn good-for-nothing who is dragging my daughter down. If it weren't for you, my daughter would have married into a wealthy family long ago. Why would I be sitting in such a remote bullshit position!?" The more Laasya Lapwood thought about it, the angrier she became. She pointed at Christian Saiger and roared: "You'd better clamp your tail tighter later and do whatever you are told. If you embarrass me again, I won't be able to whip you to death!" The scolding wasn't enough, she raised her hand high and slapped Christian Saiger hard. Christian Saiger's eyes brightened and anger grew in his heart. In the past, it was because it was hard to disobey the teacher's orders, but now that the three-year appointment has come, do you still think that he will be tempted by birds? ! He stretched out his hand and intercepted Laasya Lapwood's slap. Laasya Lapwood face turned red with anger. "I rebelled against you? You dare to stop me?" Christian Saiger eyes became colder, and Millie Yoxall smoothed things over by saying, "Mom, there are so many people here." "Hmph, wait until I get back and see how I deal with you!"Laasya Lapwood cursed and glared at Christian Saiger several times. Millie Yoxall glanced at Christian Saiger and said helplessly: "Mom is angry, so stop talking!" Millie Yoxall cold and tired voice barely suppressed the anger in Christian Saiger's heart. In recent years, Millie Yoxall has not lived better than him. There are four major families in Priaqego City, the Zheng family, the Song family, the Ouyang family, and the Sikong family. Below them are the Yao family, the Sun family, etc. Although the Yao family is not ranked among the top three in Jianghai, Millie Yoxall's name is resounding throughout Jianghai. Many leaders of listed companies, and even Hugo Slatton, the eldest son of the head of the Sikong family, have pursued Millie Yoxall. But in the end, Yao Changhe forcibly betrothed him to Christian Saiger, a strange and incompetent ordinary wild boy. In the past three years, Millie Yoxall has received as much cynicism as him! "Hey, Yunxiang, your good-for-nothing son-in-law is here. Did you bring a gift?" Just as Christian Saiger sat down, Joyce Looske , wife of Millie Yoxall Raphael Yoxall , came over with a joking look on her face. Joyce Looske dresses up in heavy makeup and has so much powder on her face that it would kill ants. She often inflicts insults on the Millie Yoxall family. "It's none of your business whether you bring a gift or not. It's my second uncle's birthday today, and I don't want to quarrel with you!"Laasya Lapwood glanced at Joyce Looske and took the lead in taking over the conversation. She wished she could slap Christian Saiger, a loser, again. "Hey, you're so angry, but it hurts your liver. Something's wrong! Who can blame you for finding a useless son-in-law?" Joyce Looske glanced at Laasya Lapwood, with a sharp tone. "Okay, today is Dad's 70th birthday party, please restrain yourself!" A man in his forties or fifties next to Joyce Looske spoke. He was Millie Yoxall's uncle, Raphael Yoxall. He had a pair of sharp long eyebrows and a formidable aura. As soon as he opened his mouth, Joyce Looske shut up in disbelief, and finally glared at Christian Saiger with disdain. Raphael Yoxall glanced at Christian Saiger with a look of disdain and said, "If you are late, you are late. What do you care about this transparent person who is dispensable?" Christian Saiger had an expressionless face and disdained to speak to these people. At this time, the head of the family , Luman Yoxall, who was sitting in the main seat, said loudly: "Thank you so much for the visit of so many distinguished guests today. It is really a blessing. Old man, I have thanked all my friends for coming to celebrate my birthday in person!" As he spoke, he stood up with a smile and raised the wine glass in his hand. Everyone at the table stood up and congratulated him. Philemen Foster also stood up and said with a smile: "Master Yao, we are going to kiss each other soon. Please take good care of us in the future." Christian Saiger sat nearby and frowned slightly when he heard the words "kiss, kiss, kiss". Just now, his mother-in-law Laasya Lapwood asked him to follow the arrangements. Could something be wrong? He couldn't help but glance at Millie Yoxall next to him, but the latter avoided his gaze unnaturally. There was a young man at the table named Vincent Yoxall. He was tall and handsome, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. He is the grandson of Luman Yoxall and the cousin of Millie Yoxall. He is also the most powerful successor candidate of the Yao family and is usually the most favored. At this time, Vincent Yoxall was holding a carefully carved jade box in his hand, with carvings of dragons and phoenixes flying on it. He stood up and said, "Grandpa, I have prepared a gift for you." When he said this, his face was filled with spring and confidence, making him look more and more prosperous. Seeing that the person standing up was Vincent Yoxall, Luman Yoxall's expression softened and he said with a smile: "My dear grandson, I'm very curious about the gift you prepared for me. What is it?" Vincent Yoxall opened the jade box in his hand and said, "It's not a precious gift, it's just a century-old wild ginseng." Everyone looked up, and even George Orwin opened his eyes that had been slightly closed. Isn’t a centuries-old wild ginseng considered precious? He actually said it as if he was giving away a Chinese cabbage! Inside the exquisitely carved, green and transparent jade box, there was a white ginseng with intact beard and hair, like a little old man, but the length of his arms was short and thick. The moment you opened the box, you could smell a refreshing ginseng fragrance. . “It’s really a century-old ginseng!” "It has a price but no market. This thing is amazing." "Vincent Yoxall is worthy of being the heir to the Yao family. He is indeed a generous person." Listening to everyone's compliments, the smile on Vincent Yoxall's face grew stronger. Vincent Yoxall is confident that his gift is definitely the most precious. For the elderly, isn't it just to live long and healthy? George Orwin took a second look, nodded and said: "Ginseng is good at replenishing the five internal organs, soothing the spirit, calming the soul, stopping panic, and eliminating evil spirits. Taking it for a long time can make you lighter and longer. It is indeed a hundred-year-old wild ginseng. It is good. Brother Yao, you You are truly blessed to have such young people who think about you.” Luman Yoxall smiled from ear to ear, "Haha, no matter what, the children of the Ouyang family are the best among people. The only one in my family, Vincent Yoxall, can barely be considered outstanding, he just knows how to be a little clever." Millie Yoxall looked at Luman Yoxall, squeezed out a smile and said, "Second Grandpa, I also picked a gift for you this time." "Oh? What kind of gift is it?" Luman Yoxall said with great interest and a kind smile. Oddly enough, Luman Yoxall's attitude towards Millie Yoxall was usually not very good and indifferent because of Christian Saiger , but today there was a 180-degree change. Millie Yoxall took out a palm-sized box made of sandalwood and handed it to Luman Yoxall with both hands. "This is a treasure I found at the Longjiang Antique Market. This is a lotus vanilla pattern snuff bottle made from ice clear water jade made by the Li family, a famous snuff bottle maker in Beijing." As he spoke, Luman Yoxall opened the sandalwood box. Immediately, a delicate and small, palm-sized snuff bottle was revealed. The bottle was transparent, green and bright, as pure and beautiful as ice. There were two jade-carved vanilla bushes carved on the left and right sides of the bottle, and a blooming lotus in the middle. It looked like Gorgeous. "Okay, okay, I'm interested." Luman Yoxall said with a smile, holding a snuff bottle in his hand and couldn't put it down. Taking advantage of the situation, everyone at the table presented gifts one after another, and various rare treasures emerged one after another, such as the ivory and jade carvings brought from the southern Yunnan border given by the real estate tycoon Niu's family, the ancient lacquerware from the Middle Ages brought back from Europe by the entertainment tycoon Hou's family, and other rare treasures. It's so dazzling. Millie Yoxall bit his red lips, looked at Xiao Shun and said, "What gift did you buy?"
