Chapter 283, on the line

No wonder those merchants were arranged by her to such a table. They were still so leisurely even though they knew the disaster was coming. It turned out that they had a backer.

Humph, fortunately she will kill the chicken to warn the monkey in a while, so that those ignorant locals can see how powerful they are, they are people from the capital.

These rural guys still want to underestimate her husband, no way!

Mrs. Mu decided to take the initiative and start with Su Huan, and then take action with the people who watched her lively that day. She gave face to the gentry and only used those few merchants to establish their authority. I believe they could understand her meaning, knowing that she let them go this time and respect her husband and her in the future.

The gentry in the small county town has no way to compare with the major families in the capital. How dare you not accept her kindness?

"Madam Liu, are you ready?"

“It’s good to wait for the banquet to begin.”

…………

Lord Shangguan handled the chats of all the local gentry. Seeing that the time was almost over, he also found that his wife had arranged for the servants at home to remove the dried tea, fruits and melon seeds on the table and put them on hot dishes. He couldn't help but feel relieved.

This was the first time that his wife had to arrange a banquet. He was inevitably worried that the hospitality would be inadequate. Fortunately, although she was willful and stupid, she was still quite indifferent to these major matters.

Lord Shangguan was kind and invited everyone to sit down, raise their glasses toast, everyone stood up and returned them.

The banquet began.

After Lord Shangguan took his seat, he turned his head and suddenly found that there was a table in front of him that was not full. He couldn't help but wonder, could anyone not give him face and join forces? Otherwise, why did four people sit at that table?

Moreover, there is a little girl among them.

How is the seat arranged?

Lord Shangguan was full of doubts and looked at Mrs. Mu, but the middle was blocked by a screen. The surrounding squire was really enthusiastic, so he could not go over and ask directly.

At this moment, Lord Shangguan was shocked again. What did he see?

He was not the only one who was surprised. Many of them were local celebrities, and they were considered people who had seen big scenes.

But what is the situation?

Everyone's tables were filled with food, but the long servants lined up, and there were probably thirty people who counted them. Each of them had two plates in their hands. Looking around, the dishes on the plate were different. It was obvious that they only served that table and would not serve the dishes separately to the people on the other tables.

Is there a big shot sitting at that table?

Lu'e walked out from behind the screen with her eyebrows down and walked to the table where Su Hua was. She raised her eyebrows and said proudly to Su Hua, "Miss Su, are you satisfied with these dishes? If it is not enough, you can continue to serve."

Boss Ji, Boss Cao, and Boss Yang put down his chopsticks and looked at Su Huan, all with "coming here is here" in his eyes.

Su Hua put down his chopsticks and looked smiling, "That's good, please thank Mrs. Mu for my kindness."

Lu'e, who was waiting for this sentence, said, "How can I do this for you? Miss Su should come over and thank my wife in person."

It really made me feel like I couldn't afford these foods, but seeing so many dishes, Su Hua was really not angry. She glanced at the dishes and said, "Today, she was invited by Mrs. Mu to attend the newly appointed banquet of Lord Shangguan. Caomin is honored. Thank you to the wife, I have to be grateful. But today, it is natural that I take the matter of the adults as the most important thing. Let Caomin give the gift I prepared for the adults first."

Lu'e didn't care about the gift that Su Hua said at all. What gift can a country girl give that can attract the eyes of the master and his wife?

No matter what others thought, Su Huan bent down and lifted the cloth in her backpack and took out a square wooden paint box from it.

Everyone recognizes this box as a snack box for Guangjuxuan to deliver takeout and pastries.

"Miss Su, you bought a box of pastries in Guangjuxuan and gave it to my elders?" Lu'e burst out laughing. Because of this new laughing stock, she did not pursue Su Hua's previous rank of his wife behind the master.

Su Hua was not angry and said extremely seriously, "This thing can be eaten, but it cannot be eaten yet."

Lu'e asked again, her task was to embarrass Su Hua, "Why can't you eat now?"

Su Hua was still slow and said politely, "Would you please give me a gift to your master first?"

After knowing it was food, Lu'e was not polite. "The gifts given to the master must be inspected. If you don't reveal them, how can I know if the things inside can be elegant, especially the food, even more so."

Su Huan could not helplessly handed the wooden box to Lu'e's eyes, "Then please ask Miss Lu'e to check it out."

Lu'e opened the lid of the lacquer box, endured the hilarious impulse in her heart, and scolded with grievance, "What, Miss Su, is there any gift you give like this? It's okay if you give food, our family doesn't lack such a bite. How can we give raw tofu cubes and a few clay-covered green onions as gifts? Not only are you not sincere, but you are even slapping my wife in the face. Are you still holding a grudge against my wife for the day?"

Su Huan hurriedly explained in a low voice, "No, I don't mean that, Miss Lu'er listen to my explanation."

Lu'e didn't want to hear Su Hua's explanation. She finally got her face back to her wife, so she wouldn't let her go. "My wife thinks that your family is poor, and you have a big appetite and can't eat enough. She also feels that you have to save enough money to send your younger brother to the academy to study. So she pitys you and invites you to have a delicious meal. The lady doesn't expect you to give you any gifts. Your kindness to treat your wife like this is so annoying."

"Luai, stop talking!" Mrs. Mu, who was shaped into a kind and kind person by Luai, spoke in time behind the screen to stop Luai's nonsense.

Mu Wanling said generously, "The past is over. Just accept this gift and take it down. No matter what gift it is, it is always the heart of Miss Su Huan. Do we not know that we are not despised as poor and rich?"

Tsk, Mu Wanling is not really that stupid, but she is still stupid when she does this at the banquet where her husband takes office.

Lu'e nodded respectfully, turned around and glared at Su Huan, "Look, how kind, Madam is, can you still eat these delicacies? A country girl who doesn't understand the rules, it's a blessing that Madam is so kind to you, and I forgive you. If you don't give gifts, Madam won't say you or something, give me the things."
