"Mom, these are two different things. The Xun family's lack of money does not happen in a day or two, let alone because we spend the money. Why should you use your dowry to subsidize them? Even if you do, will they be grateful to you?"Xun Yingju felt a fire in her heart, and she became rude when she spoke.

Bai was choked. She only wanted to help Xun Hongde, but she never thought about the attitude of the Xun family towards her. Maybe she had become accustomed to it in the past ten years. The attitude of the Xun family did not take this matter to heart, so they didn't think much about it. Now that their daughter mentioned it, they really felt aggrieved. They nodded and said,"That's fine, everything is up to you."

The mother and daughter reached an agreement and went back to their rooms to rest. Time passed quickly. Three days passed. On the third day, Xun Yingju got up early and started preparing for the banquet. The invitations were sent out early. Lu Shaoyuan is a good friend in the yamen.

There is also Shen Yan. Shen Yan has been staying in Qingshui County recently and has no intention of leaving, so naturally he cannot be left out. Cai Lizheng from Hongshan Village is also invited to join in the fun It was lively, and there were several neighbors with good relations with him.

Early in the morning, Cai Lizheng brought a few neighbors to the door. Xiao Shitou and Xiao He immediately greeted the visitor when they saw them. Xiao Shitou bowed and saluted:"Uncle Li Zheng, you Came here so early?"

"After all, Mr. Lu is also a big shot from our village. He is now promising. We from the same village must be more active."Cai Lizheng said with a smile.

"Uncle is right, Master Lu and our girl are the same family, so they are naturally from Hongshan Village."Xiaohe nodded in agreement.

"You two brats have grown a lot. Follow Miss Six carefully and you will benefit from it in the future."Cai Lizheng said with a smile.

The two villains naturally understood the meaning of Cai Lizheng's words, and nodded in agreement, and then invited everyone to go into the courtyard to rest. When

Xun Yingju saw Cai Lizheng, she felt grateful to him for taking care of her, and immediately stepped forward to greet her. He smiled and said,"I'm sorry to have to take a trip to my uncle today. I must have a few more drinks today.""

"Haha, this is what I want. I don’t drink wine from other people’s houses. The wine from Miss Liu’s family is unique in our Qingshui County. Many businessmen from other places come to Qingshui County just to have a sip of this wine. Naturally, I want to drink a few more glasses."Cai Lizheng burst out laughing. Then he asked a few young guys who had come with him to go down and help. Today is a great day, so they are lucky to be able to come and help.

Xun Yingju hurriedly invited people to sit down in the main hall to drink tea, and Lu Shaoyuan accompanied him. Next came Shen Yan and Chef Zhang, both of whom had a good relationship with Xun Yingju. They came without any courtesy and went to the main hall to chat with Lu Shaoyuan. Next came the officials from the Yamen and their families, and the male guests were naturally Lu Shaoyuan received the reception, and the female guest Xun Yingju welcomed her to the middle courtyard, accompanied by Mrs. Bai.

The next person surprised Xun Yingju, it was Mrs. Hu. Not only did Mrs. Hu come, she also brought Xun Yingzhu, Xun Yinglan and their two sons. Like He had planned to come here for a long time and had prepared a lot of gifts.

Xun Yingzhu was still as proud as a peacock and did not take Xun Yingju seriously at all. When he entered the yard, he started looking around, as if he wanted to understand the yard clearly. This time Xun Yinglan became more obedient and followed Hu obediently without saying a word, treating herself like air.

"It was just a small banquet, why did mother have time to come over? Xun Yingju said politely.

Mrs. Hu was embarrassed and said:"We are all one family. Mr. Lu has been promoted, so of course we need money to congratulate him.""

"Mother is too polite. Come in and talk. Many ladies from the county government have already arrived. My mother is chatting with them. You are here to calm down the crowd."Xun Yingju said with a smile

"Mr. Lu’s promotion banquet, who wouldn’t have the foresight to cause trouble here?"Ms. Hu knew that Xun Yingju was being polite, so she didn't worry about it, but she followed Xun Yingju into the middle courtyard.

Last time I went to Qingya Residence with the old lady, but I was in a hurry and didn't look at the courtyard carefully. Today I have a chance. Once again, Mr. Hu slowed down and looked at the small courtyard carefully.

It was said to be a small courtyard, but after entering the large courtyard, the overall layout was similar to that of Xun's Mansion, and the furnishings in the courtyard were much more exquisite than those of Xun's Mansion. Many things were convenient Not even the county magistrate's office, she sighed in her heart:"Sixth girl is really prosperous. Not only has she climbed up to the Shen family and started a big business, but she also has a good relationship with Lu Shaoyuan. Good times are yet to come, but it’s a pity that my bamboo is no longer so lucky."

Lu Shaoyuan's promotion this time can be said to be a meteoric rise. The county captain is only a seventh-grade official, and his official rank is on the same level as Xun Hongde. But this time he was promoted from a first-grade official to a feudal official. Even Xun Hongde was in charge. Be obedient and polite.

If Xun Yingzhu can marry Lu Shaoyuan, it will be from the wife of a first-class official. From now on, the Xun family and the Hu family can follow suit, at least no one will dare to bully him.

Unfortunately, Xun Yingzhu was lukewarm towards Lu Shaoyuan at the beginning. , I still feel a little disdainful in my heart, and I have not left a good impression on this young official. Now I can only suffer the loss of being dumb. I will start to build a good relationship from now on, and there is no chance that I will get a higher position in the future.

Naturally, Xun Yingju didn't know that Hu's mother Even if the girl knew what she was thinking, she could only sneer at it. If the Zanying family is so easy to get along with, there won't be many families that she can't marry into.

"Why is sister here free today? Come on in and sit down, we are chatting about when we can go and see you."Mr. Bai came out with a smile and said with a smile.

Regarding Ms. Bai, Ms. Hu felt very complicated. She is very reluctant to go out now, especially where Bai is. The reason is very simple. The existence of Bai It was a mockery of her.

Sure enough, after Mrs. Hu entered the main hall of the middle courtyard, the atmosphere in the room became awkward. Mrs. Hu used to be the wife of the county magistrate who was aloof, and all the wives of all the families in Qingshui County had to give her a bit of a thumbs-down. Even if he doesn't like her behavior, he can only endure it. Hu has also taken advantage of the county magistrate's wife and never shows weakness in front of these people. It's different now. There are two wives in the Xun family, and this Mrs. Bai is not only kind-hearted, but also favored by Lord Xun. More importantly, Mrs. Bai has a very capable daughter. Not only does she have a good relationship with the prefect's house, but she also has a good relationship with the second son of the Changshi family. It is impossible to say that the two of them still have a good relationship. It is a good thing to be able to form a good relationship between Qin and Jin. Therefore, many people did not take Madam Hu seriously and did not stand up to greet Madam Hu when she came in.

Seeing this scene, Ms. Bai was embarrassed. She had never walked among these ladies. However, I didn’t know their habits, and I didn’t expect them to be so unscrupulous.
