Chapter 238 - 238 Banquet238 Banquet
Before the birthday banquet began, all the guests gave gifts to Old Master Ning.
The gift was not particularly expensive, but the guests had put in a lot of effort to prepare them.
On this day, Old Master Ning kept smiling. He was sincerely happy. Apart from the lively birthday banquet, it was also because of Ning Yue.
He was very happy and gratified to have a sensible granddaughter like Ning Yue.
The birthday banquet began in the evening and ended after dinner. Old Master Ning received a lot of gifts. With a wave of his hand, he distributed the gifts to his sons.

“Hahaha, Father, don’t worry. How can we not prepare a gift for your birthday? There were many people just now. We planned to give you this gift after they left.” The eldest son of the Ning family first took out a large box.
He and his wife had gone to town to buy this gift. It was a winter set.
This winter outfit was exquisitely made. There were also a few auspicious clouds on it. Old Master Ning liked it very much.
“Father, the next one is mine. I’m a boor. I don’t know what you like, but I thought of this.” Ning Chen also took out a box.
This box seemed to be very heavy. Ning Chen did not hand it directly to Old Master Ning. Instead, he placed it on the table.
Old Master Ning opened it and was almost dazzled by the golden light. It was filled with gold! It was neatly arranged and looked to be about fifty taels of gold.
Although Old Master Ning was not short of money to spend now, this was his son’s kindness. Old Master Ning was extremely happy.
Then, it was the third son of the Ning family who gave Old Master Ning a tea set. When Old Master Ning was free, he liked to drink tea the most. He went to town to buy a Yixing clay teapot set.
In the end, it was Ning Guang’s turn. He was Old Master Ning’s youngest son. Originally, he was stupid and had been cured by Gu Yu and Ning Yue. Now, he even went to school with the children. The teacher praised Ning Guang for being studious and smart.
He had bought a riding suit for Old Master Ning in town. Ever since he escaped from the wilderness, Old Master Ning had never ridden a horse again.
When he was young, he had traveled extensively and loved riding clothes the most. There was even a riding whip on the riding clothes. Old Master Ning could not bear to part with this gift.
“Old Master, this is my gift to you. It’s a poison prevention bead that can ward off all kinds of poisons. One is an antidote pill. If you eat it when you’re poisoned, it can cure all kinds of poisons. The other is a life-saving pill. If you eat it when your life is in danger, it can save your life.”
Gu Yu smiled and handed the three small bottles to Old Master Ning. As Old Master Ning was his disciple’s grandfather, he naturally had to put in effort.

“Grandpa, I prepared this.” Jiang Ying handed a seal to Old Master Ning. “This seal represents my identity. As long as it’s in my father’s fief, take out the seal. Those officials will kneel down when they see you and be at your disposal.”
“This!” Old Master Ning stood up. Each gift was more valuable than the last!
“I’m old. Yueyue, keep this gift for me. It’s too valuable. It won’t be good if I drop it.” As he spoke, Old Master Ning handed the gift to Ning Yue without hesitation.
Ning Yue looked at Jiang Ying, who smiled at her.
Whether this seal was given to Ning Yue or Old Master Ning, it was the same. In any case, they would be family in the future.
Ning Yue thought for a moment. “Alright, I’ll help Grandpa put it away first. If Grandpa needs it, you can ask me for it.”
In the end, Ning Yue gave Old Master Ning a gift. “Grandpa, I spent a lot of effort preparing this. Grandpa, you have to keep it well.”
Ning Yue smiled and handed a box to Old Master Ning. Old Master Ning opened it and smiled even wider.
There was a fist-sized jade raw stone and a jade ring. The ring itself was well-made. He liked this jade ring very much!
There was also the jade raw stone. He could use this raw stone to make a style he liked. “Yueyue, that’s thoughtful.”
