Su Qingshi sent the two suckling pigs and the big pig to the He family, then turned around and drove the ox cart to the market to purchase.

You can't just eat meat and no vegetables every day.

Su Xiaofei asked Zhao Chunhua to take her out to make a new dress today. The old lady of the town's richest family, the He family, is about to celebrate her birthday. Her niece Wei Lanxin brought her daughter Sun Yali from another place to celebrate the old lady's birthday, and brought her daughter out to see if there are any suitable son-in-law candidates.

Really not. The sons of the He family are handsome and elegant. Although they are businessmen, they are wealthy after all.

When Wei Lanxin arrived in the town, she held a small banquet every three days and a big banquet every five days, making friends with young talents everywhere.

After all, Mr. He is the richest man in the town, and everyone will give him some face to him.

Those who are a little bit more informed know that the He family's business has expanded to Kyoto and that they have backers in Kyoto.

Therefore, the scholars in the town, including the relatives of the county officials and clerks, would not deliberately offend the He family.

However, although face was given, it is unknown what he was thinking in his heart.

After all, it was the first banquet, and everyone thought it was really a banquet hosted by the He family, and all the ladies from various mansions attended.

As a result, it turned out that it was just a relative of the old lady who took advantage of the old lady's favoritism and instigated such a banquet.

Especially since Mrs. Mo's words implied that she did not agree with him, who could not understand that?

When the invitation was sent out the second time, Mrs. He refused to allow the use of the He family’s name.

After all, everyone knows Wei Lanxin's intentions, and Mrs. He doesn't want Wei Lanxin to take advantage of the He family's power to cause trouble.

She herself has three legitimate sons and one legitimate daughter, and none of them have been married yet.

Fortunately, the eldest son was capable and took his younger brothers and sisters to Kyoto. Otherwise, if Wei Lanxin had done this, her son and daughter would not have been able to have a good family.

There was no other choice, Wei Lanxin had to use her own invitation to hold the banquet.

Wei Lanxin thought that since these ladies were praising Madam He so much, they would probably give her some face.

Ha ha!

Think more.

After that, all the ladies with a little bit of family background in the town stopped participating.

Only some small merchants or poor scholars with ulterior motives took this opportunity to bring their children or attend the banquet in person.

After all, Wei Lanxin's purpose was too obvious.

Who doesn’t know that this is to find a son-in-law for their daughter?

Well, although the Wei family was not extremely wealthy, they still had a few shops and hundreds of acres of fertile land, so they were considered a well-off family.

However, Wei Lanxin watched her aunt marry so well, so of course she wanted her daughter to marry better too.

If you can't find a rich and powerful family, it's also okay to marry a talented poor student.

After all, officials definitely have a higher status than merchants.

How could Su Qingzhu, who is so good at scheming, miss this opportunity? Naturally, he personally brought his two sons to the banquet.

However, there were too many people who had the same idea. Su Yueli and Su Yuening could barely squeeze in front of Sun Yali, so how could they show off their talents?

Su Qingzhu thought about it and decided to take a roundabout way to save the situation. She let her daughter get close to Sun Yali first, and then become friends with Sun Yali, and then create opportunities for her son.

I have to say, this scholar's brain works very quickly.

Su Xiaofei originally looked down on Sun Yali, the daughter of a merchant family. She wanted to be rich and prosperous in the future, so how could she lower her status?

However, her father spent ten taels of silver to buy her clothes and jewelry, so she couldn't miss such an opportunity.
