The Old Master of the Burton family twirled his beard and said nonchalantly,
“Our surnames are Burton. We were one family 500 years ago. It’s normal for Chief Burton to give our family face.” Why did he care so much? As long as the person came, it was fine!
Daniel shook his head again. “I keep feeling that something is amiss. That Chief
Burton is someone who doesn’t even give face to the higher-ups.”
Old Madam of the Burton family glared at him. “Daniel Burton, what do you mean? Do you not want to see our family doing well? Why can’t Chief Burton wish me a happy birthday?” Their family was the family of a first-class meritorious official. Shouldn’t he wish her a happy birthday?
The Burton family’s eldest son also said with a serious expression, “Daniel, you just came to Beijing. There are many things you don’t know. Don’t make wild guesses.”
Daniel immediately shut up. He felt that he could not reason with the Burton family. This family was all idiots. They were just lucky to have occupied Eldest Granduncle’s honor when he was alive. If Eldest Granduncle’s honor had fallen on him, he would have long led the Burton family to a meteoric rise!
The grandson of the Burton family, Chester Burton, rolled his eyes. He had taken the national civil service examination several times, but he had never been able to pass. He knew that this cousin of his, Chester, who lived in their house, was a capable person, so he pondered for a moment and pretended to say, “Grandpa, I also think that it’s a little strange for Chief Burton to suddenly agree to attend the birthday banquet. It’s better to be more cautious.”
When Old Master of the Burton family saw his grandson Chester speak, he immediately felt that it made sense. He said, “Then second son, go and investigate.”
The second son of the Burton family nodded in agreement. It was unknown how many layers of connections he had used and how many pairs of shoes he had worn out before he finally found out that the war god, Alex Burton, was from the Burton family!
The Burton family was stunned by this news! Old Master Burton said with a trembling voice, “Alex is my eldest brother’s grandson, which means he’s my grandson. Our Burton family has become successful, very successful!”
The Old Madam of the Burton family was so excited that her face turned red. “No wonder. No wonder he’s coming. He wants to celebrate his Grandma’s birthday! ”
The eldest son of the Burton family came to a realization. “Chief Burton agreed to come to celebrate your birthday but didn’t say why. He wants to give us a
surprise!”
Daniel: ” If he remembered correctly, Alex wasn’t the biological grandson of this family, right? At most, he was a cousin. He felt that something wasn’t right, but he didn’t say anything else to remind them.
The Burton family excitedly began to decorate for the birthday banquet. All sorts of red lanterns were hung up, and bright red longevity words were pasted on them. Even the invitations to the birthday banquet were gilded! The Old Master of the Burton family liked to collect antiques. He took out all the antiques that he usually treasured and could not bear to take out!
The Old Master of the Burton family was excited and gratified. “We’ve been in Buffalo for five years. Our family is finally going to make another leap!” The war god of America was the highest commander of the military. No one could invite him, but he was from the Burton family! What did this mean? It meant that they would be the number one family in Buffalo in the future!
When the Burton family’s invitations were sent out, they covered the sky and earth. All the families, big and small, and celebrities were invited. The butler of the Burton family told everyone that the military’s supreme commander, the number one war god in America, was their Old Master’s grandson. When he said that, he was overjoyed.
The moment this news came out, everyone was alarmed and tried to build a good relationship with the Burton family in advance. The Burton family’s Old Madam’s nose was raised to the sky. She was so arrogant. In the past, they had used all sorts of connections. Now, it was finally the other way around. It felt great to be curried favor with!
At the Walton residence, Old Master Walton was reading in the garden when he received the Burton family’s invitation. Amelia was drawing on a stone table at the side. When she saw a guest, she subconsciously greeted politely, “Good morning, Uncle.” However, when she looked up, she recognized that this was the butler of the Burton family who had not treated her eldest uncle well the day before.
Amelia immediately turned around and ran to the side. The butler of the Burton family glanced at Amelia, his eyes flashing with displeasure. This child was so rude! Thinking about how this child had come to the house to acknowledge the Burton family two days ago, he spat in his heart. Fortunately, they didn’t acknowledge her. Their Burton family now had a war god in the family. The Walton family couldn’t reach him at all.
“Old Master Walton, all the celebrities in Buffalo have been invited to our Old Madam’s birthday. I’m here to give you one too,” the Burton family’s butler said.
Old Master Walton glanced at him coldly. “Just put it down. If there’s nothing else, I won’t send you off..”
