As soon as Old Master Ning and the others arrived, everyone exchanged greetings, and the two most senior elders sat down, starting another round of conversation.
Ning Ge first presented the birthday gift for the old master. Since they had brought a gift, Old Master Cheng thought it inappropriate to inspect it right away, so he chuckled and said, "You're all in such a hurry to present your gifts; the banquet hasn't even started yet!"
"It doesn't matter when a gift is given, but from what the old master says, has someone already given their gift before me?" Ning Ge laughed and glanced at Cheng Su and the others.
"Indeed, take a look." Old Master Cheng showed off the pair of porcelain figurines like a treasure: "This is my sister and me when we were young. Back then, we didn't have any photos together, but this girl was so clever, she actually made these porcelain figures as a keepsake."
