It was at the last minute that Su Juanjuan finally got everything done and passed it to Aunt Su.

Aunt Su's palm sank, and she saw the smallest speaker that Su Heiya mentioned.

Sure enough, it was not even as big as her palm and looked like a children's toy.

Such a small thing cost her 8,500 yuan of happiness!

Before Aunt Su could finish feeling the pain, the screen went black and the call ended.

Aunt Su used her cell phone to light it up and figured out how to use this small speaker.

Seeing that there was a pair of headphones plugged into the small speaker, Aunt Su's eyes lit up and she tried to turn on the speaker.

There is no need to be afraid this time. If there is a sudden loud noise, it will alarm outsiders, right?

As soon as it was turned on, there was indeed a squeaking sound in the earphones. Aunt Su turned down the volume and plugged them into her ears...

Ah! This intoxicating drumbeat and this soulful and beautiful singing voice!

I haven't listened to it for several months. Why is it so fascinating when I suddenly listen to it?

The next day, Aunt Su asked someone to call the servant who could play the flute over.

This man's surname is He. His parents were both concubines of Old Madam Su. He was the second of three children in the family.

His elder brother and younger sister, one can work, and the other is good at embroidery.

Only he, the second child in the middle, was unsuccessful in anything. However, when he was a child, he somehow managed to save some money, and then went to the street to buy a broken flute from an old man selling musical instruments. He then learned a few notes from him, and by figuring things out on his own, he was able to play the flute.

He's father and mother looked down on him. What's the use of being able to play the flute?

They were the old lady's companions. In the mansion, if the masters wanted to listen to a piece of music, wouldn't they go and call a proper troupe of actors? Would they listen to him?

The one singing on the street was also playing the huqin, not the flute, right?

But he didn't expect that the old lady's Mid-Autumn Lantern Festival would reveal him.

Now that they have a stage, everyone has discovered that the second son of the He family is indeed quite talented!

How come the breathing is so even, and the sound of the flute is so melodious and joyful?

After the Mid-Autumn Lantern Festival, the second son of the He family received rewards from the old lady, including silver ingots, fine cloth and red silk. The second son of the He family's wife was very proud for a long time. Before the fine cloth was even warm in her hands, she made clothes for her own child, who was seen walking around in the clothes... I have never seen anyone who can show off like that!

So everyone thought, no matter how much you show off at the Mid-Autumn Lantern Festival, it only comes once a year, and you can only show off this once a year.

But no one expected that after the old lady organized the Mid-Autumn Lantern Festival, she would also organize a Double Ninth Festival party!

When He Laoer was called away by the old lady, everyone was still envious and jealous.

"I should have learned a musical instrument earlier!"

"Why didn't you learn? When you were a kid, didn't you get an erhu and want to learn from the blind man who played the erhu at the corner of the street? But the sound you made was so scary that the blind man was scared away. From then on, he never played the erhu at the corner of the back street of the Bo's Mansion again!"

Once the truth was revealed, the air was immediately filled with a joyful atmosphere.

After He Laoer came back from the old lady's place, he was in a daze.

When others saw him, they asked him, "He Laoer, the old lady asked you to go, but did she choose the music to be used for the Double Ninth Festival?"

Although He Laoer can play music, fortunately he has never learned it seriously. The only tunes he can play are those that everyone often hears at weddings and funerals... Otherwise, if he could play everything, wouldn't everyone be jealous to death?

He Laoer nodded blankly, then shook his head.

"What does it mean by nodding and shaking your head?"

He Laoer glanced at everyone and said, "The old lady asked me to listen to two pieces of music and told me to play according to those pieces of music."

He still doesn't understand where that song came from.

Why is it so strange?

It's definitely not a song that can be played in the mortal world!

Everyone was stunned.

"The old lady asked you to listen to two pieces of music? Where did those pieces of music come from?"

The old lady can’t play any music either!

He Lao Er glanced at everyone and raised his head, "It came from the sky!"

You mortals!

How can I understand?

Just when everyone in Sujiazhuang was secretly counting the days and looking forward to the Double Ninth Festival, Aunt Su received two visiting cards.

These two visiting cards were sent from the landlords and gentry in the neighboring village.

One family’s surname is Dong and the other’s surname is Qi.

Both visiting cards were very polite, and the general meaning was that they heard that Sujiazhuang was going to hold a Double Ninth Festival party.

The elderly in their family are over fifty years old. After hearing about the excitement, they really want to come and see it. They don’t know whether Old Madam Su will allow it. If she does, they will come in their own carriages. They don’t need Old Madam Su to entertain them. They will just watch the Chongyang Festival Gala and leave...

Of course, in addition to the visiting card, there were also two gifts.

The gifts are also quite standard, including homemade bacon and sausages, homemade fermented rice wine, dairy sheep, chickens, ducks and the like.

Aunt Su looked at the gift lists and nodded secretly.

These two are quite real.

He greeted the visitor, said a few polite words, expressed his welcome, and made sure to reserve a few good seats for the other party. Then he gave two boxes of homemade snacks in return and sent the person away.

The servants brought up the gifts that the other party had brought.

Aunt Su went forward to take a look.

As an experienced person who often goes to the vegetable market, she can tell the quality of sausages and smoked meats at a glance.

After Aunt Su finished reading it, she had it sent to the kitchen.

As for the living creatures, they were all sent to the newly built farm on the village.

The reason why these two families sent these over was probably because they knew that Sujiazhuang had just built a farm and were buying seedlings everywhere.

After dealing with the gifts, Aunt Su called Su Zhong's family over and asked about the situation of the two families.

"Madam, the Qi family is the landlord of Qijiazhuang. Half of the farmland in Qijiazhuang belongs to them. Their family has been gentry for generations. I heard that they also opened a grain store in Tongcheng. Their family is very wealthy, but their sons have no talent for studying and can't even pass the examination for Tongsheng. Therefore, after two or three generations, they are still ordinary gentry."

"The Dong family has quite a background. I heard that the old man of the Dong family used to work for a nobleman's mansion in the capital. He was considered a well-known figure. The grandson of the Dong family was also a famous teacher invited by the old man from the capital. He was quite promising. He passed the imperial examination and was appointed as an official. He is now a county magistrate in another place."

Although the situations of these two companies are different, they are relatively honest in the local area and have never had any bad reputations.

Aunt Su nodded after hearing this.

"In that case, I feel relieved."

As a retired person, she doesn't want to get involved with those rich but unkind people who bring disaster to the people.
