The Bai family, who lives in Sanqiao Lane, was lively early this morning.

The Bai family is now the largest merchant in this area, today is the sixteenth birthday of Bai Mingyuan, the youngest son of the head of the family Bai Zhen, it stands to reason that ordinary people do not have this etiquette of scattering and doing a big job, but this time the business of the Bai family is as prosperous as a vine climbing up, plus the daughter of the owner of the silk village across the two streets has the intention of marrying, so he invited many people who have business contacts to have a banquet and be a witness.

Li Huixing sat in Tang's room a little reservedly, while the maid next to her future mother-in-law was grooming herself, and at the same time secretly glanced at the things in her mother-in-law's jewelry box with her eyes, and the more she looked, the more satisfied she felt.

She remembered that her father said that a few months ago, the Bai family was just a small merchant who opened two millet shops in the East Market, but she didn't know what kind of money she borrowed, and suddenly she set up two stores on the most prosperous South Street, one was still doing the old rice shop business, and the other was in the jewelry business.

Some people thought that the Bai family was not killing themselves. It costs a lot of money to rent a storefront on South Street, and the jewelry business is controlled by the Treasure Pavilion, and a lot of offerings have to be handed over every year, so it is better to do some rice oil business. Who knows what is surprising is that this jewelry store has not only survived to this day, but also I don't know if it is because the price of the jewelry sold by the Bai family is closer to that of the common people or because the Treasure Pavilion has not taken such a small business into account for a while, and the business of this store seems to be very prosperous.

Of course, some people suspect that the Bai family has climbed some backer and ordered the shop on South Street at a low price, but after thinking about it, I think it is unlikely, what kind of backer can make Jumbo Pavilion sell face?

Therefore, this time for the birthday ceremony or engagement banquet, many merchants who do not have such a good relationship on weekdays and even have competition also took the time to see the real details of the Bai family.

The Bai family only didn't know, and greeted everyone with a smile and served as a guest.

Li Huixing's silk and satin village is also doing well, but compared with the Bai family, which is a day long, it seems a little decent.

The marriage between the two families was decided more than ten days ago, and she had been to the Bai family many times before that.

In addition to an elder brother who inherits the family business, she also has a sister-in-law and two sisters-in-law, all of whom are making trouble all day long. So she has a good temper when she was a child, she is not competitive if she doesn't pinch the tip, she is more humble when she encounters trouble, and she doesn't like to watch her sisters fight, so she pours tea and water in the upper room and serves her father.

Because her father also loves her very much, although there are many sisters, he set a rich dowry for her early on, and even his brother, who is a little stingy, didn't say anything, and even secretly gave her a title deed on the Zhuangzi on the outskirts of the city.

The future mother-in-law Tang Xing may also take a fancy to her and think that she is the best candidate for the second daughter-in-law, so every time she comes to visit, she will let her stay overnight and accompany her to say some intimate words.

Originally, it was just a trivial Tao Te Ching, but it later evolved into Tang's unilateral feelings for his second son Bai Mingyuan and trivial matters between mother and son.

She heard the clue, and after returning home, she vaguely mentioned it to her father and mother, her father carefully considered the Bai family and thought it was a good family, and saw that Bai Mingyuan was born white and handsome, very good at reading, and did not seem to be left behind in business.

Today's marriage ceremony, it stands to reason that it should be done at the woman's house, but the Li family is willing to give the Bai family this dignity, and the whole family came to live in the Bai family yesterday, and Li Huixing also lived in the Tang family's warm pavilion as always.

She's been here a lot of times, and this time she'll see some clues. In Tang's bedroom, there were a lot of things that looked very valuable, some of which she couldn't even name, and she began to secretly guess in her heart, it seems that the Bai family has a backer, otherwise Tang and Bai Zhen are both from slave origin, so there will be no such decent things.

I also knew that Tang's posing for these things was somewhat intimidating, and he was even more respectful and docile on his face, and he also had some expectations for his future life in his heart.

After all the guests presented congratulatory gifts and sat down, the master of ceremonies cleared his throat and prepared to begin the engagement ceremony.

At this time, a sharp voice slowly sounded: "Wait!"

All the guests looked back, but they were all stunned when they saw the comer.

The person who came wore a red tasseled hat, a white dust, and a red and blue satin robe, which was exactly the dress of an inner prison.

The man was also followed by several little eunuchs, holding gift boxes of different lengths and widths in their hands, with respectful expressions.

"Boom. ”

I don't know who swallowed his saliva, and it seemed extremely abrupt in this almost silent courtyard.

There was a storm in everyone's hearts, no one thought about it, and they couldn't have imagined that the Bai family's reliance was actually related to the royal family.

According to the laws of Nanming, except for Ouchi, the prince and the princess who married, the rest of the powerful people have no right to use the internal prison. Therefore, the person of the inner prison is a castrated half-human in front of the powerful, but in the hearts of ordinary people, it is a symbol of power.

These people not only appeared here, but even seemed to be here to give gifts to the little Bai family, how could they not be shocked?

After the shock, I couldn't help but start whispering.

Who could it be? Who sent these internal supervisory committees?

The head of the Bai family also came back to his senses, although he was confused, he still went up to deal with it: "I don't know if the adults come to the cold house, what advice do you have?" It was the first time he had dealt with these people, for fear that he would poke the sore spot of others if he didn't call them well.

The leader smiled and said, "Don't you dare to be called an adult in the mouth of the master, a few of us are ordered by the eldest princess of Minyuan to congratulate the second son on the joy of marriage, my surname is Cui, and the lord calls me Grandpa Cui." "The attitude is neither humble nor arrogant, although he is respectful to Bai Zhen, he does not depreciate himself.

Bai Zhen woke up like a dream and hurriedly summoned his youngest son over.

Bai Mingyuan walked over slowly, looked past Father-in-law Cui, looked at the gift box behind him, and said dryly: "Father-in-law is tired of going this way." ”

When Grandpa Cui looked at him, his eyes looked much more respectful. smiled and asked the little eunuchs with the gift box to come forward, and pointed: "These two are prepared by the eldest princess, and this one was selected by the county lord." ”

"County Lord?" Bai Mingyuan lost his mind for a moment, as if muttering to himself.

Father-in-law Cui smiled: "It is the county lord, and the son is also a good blessing, and he can be missed by the two nobles." ”

Bai Mingyuan came back to his senses after a long while, nodded, and took the three boxes with a smile.

Bai Zhen saw that the atmosphere was quite harmonious, so he mustered up the courage and said, "Father-in-law, why don't you eat some wine here, it's really embarrassing to bother you to make a trip." ”

Father-in-law Cui waved his hand: "The meaning of the eldest princess has been delivered, our family will not stay for a long time, there are other things to be busy with at hand, thank you Master Bai for your kindness." ”

Li Huixing, who happened to be helped out by the maid, watched the whole process completely, and at this time, his eyes couldn't help but shine, and he looked at Bai Mingyuan with tenderness.
