Crackle——!
In Qiushan County, the Su Family's residence was brightly decorated with lanterns, and the courtyard was filled with the sound of firecrackers and red paper. Crowds thronged at the entrance, children playfully chasing the Su Family members, sweet-talking them for candied jujubes and preserved fruits.
"Master Chang, two thousand taels!"
"Gasp, two thousand taels, which family is hosting the celebration?"
"Haven't you heard? Today is the Su Family's housewarming celebration. They moved to our county town a year ago, and it's said that this Su Family is somehow connected to a prominent family in the Ancient County. That's why all the county's officials and gentlemen are here today."
Most of the people outside the Su Mansion were eagerly peering inside, not because they didn't want to go in for a toast, but because attending the feast required money—at least a hundred taels to start.
