The birthday banquet of Shopkeeper Cheng was quite lively.
Xu Qing met many familiar faces that seemed vaguely recognizable; most of these people were descendants of old neighborhood friends. Although he hadn't seen some of them before, based on the hereditary looks, he could still distinguish which family they belonged to.
"Are you from the Li Si family?"
Li Xian Gui, who had managed the broker for many years, was visibly surprised. Xu Qing chuckled and said, "Your grandfather and I were old acquaintances. When I first arrived in the Jin Sect, I often interacted with Li Si."
"I even held you back when your parents took you to pay their respects at Ziyun Mountain!"
"..."
Li Xian Gui hurriedly bowed and greeted: "May I ask who the old gentleman is?"
Only then did Xu Qing remember that he hadn't visited the broker in decades, and the funeral business was managed by his disciples or the Funeral House staff on his behalf.
