No matter how unwilling Fei was, she had to swallow the food. There were so many delicious foods, she had to eat more to ease her regret.

Regret? Of course, she didn't expect the Mi family to be so rich. She saw that Danniu drove the ox cart and pulled two carts of things back. If she had known this, she would have asked for more money.

People from the Mi family's old house also came. They enjoyed the free wedding banquet hosted by the Mi Lan family, but in their hearts they wanted to skin the Xun family alive. They were so rich that they could buy so many good things and have such a feast. How much silver did it cost?

The people in the Mi family’s old house felt like they had eaten and drunk them.

Liu was eating a large pork elbow, but the piece was so big that oil was dripping from her mouth.

Everyone at the same table looked at her strangely, as if she were a starving ghost.

Milan changed out of her phoenix coronet and bridal gown and put on a bright red floor-length lotus dress. Her head was covered with pearls and jade, and she had on exquisite makeup. She walked out with a smile on her face with every step.

Daniu's eyes were full of Milan. He helped her walk over and toasted at each table.

This is the difference between marrying a daughter-in-law and marrying a son-in-law. When marrying a daughter-in-law, the bride just has to wait in the bridal chamber, but when marrying a son-in-law, the bride is the head of the family and must come out to toast.

Two girls saw Milan wearing a gorgeous wedding dress and a golden headdress on her head. They were so jealous that they really wanted to go up and snatch the things on her head.

Mi Yao glanced over and took a look at the two women. They were just two envious and jealous little girls.

The toast was held at the Mi family’s old house.

When Qian saw Milan, she looked at her from head to toe and asked, "Milan, where did you get these things?"

"It has nothing to do with you." Milan said softly.

"You little Chang..." Qian was so angry that she started cursing.

"Ah!" Qian screamed, and everyone looked over, only to see a big meatball stuffed in Qian's mouth.

The meatball was as big as an adult man's fist. Qian stuffed the whole thing into her mouth. She could neither swallow it nor spit it out. She couldn't breathe and nearly suffocated to death.

"Even food can't stop you from talking." Mi Mo walked over.

"Hmph!" When Qian saw Mi Yao, she felt very panicked, especially Mi Yao's eyes. They were too scary. Although there was a smile on her lips, it made people feel creepy.

"Go to the next table. People like him are not worthy of your toast." Mi Yao said lightly, and no one in the Mi family's old house dared to say a word.

Daniu pulled Milan to the next table.

"If you want to eat, eat quietly. If you don't want to eat, get out!" Mi Yao looked at the people in the Mi family's old house. The fierce aura scared them so much that they dared not breathe. They wanted to leave but were reluctant to leave the food on the table, so they had to lower their heads.

"Wouldn't it be better if you behaved like this earlier?" Mi Yao looked at this group of Mi family members who bullied the weak and feared the strong, and turned away.

The whole banquet lasted for more than two hours. The villagers left after eating and drinking their fill, and everyone offered auspicious words.

Zhenweilou also started packing up its belongings, and Mi Yao paid the balance.

"Mom, today is Lan'er and Daniu's wedding. We will stay here tonight and I will leave tomorrow." Mi Yao said.

"Mother will listen to you." Xun now obeyed Mi Mo's words 100%.

After a night, the Mi family began to prepare to move.

In fact, there was nothing much in the house. Many of the things were originally owned by kind-hearted families.

"Mom, we are leaving today. We have borrowed this house for so long. Before we leave, let's go to express our gratitude to this kind person." Mi Yao took out six pieces of cloth, all of which were the finest Hang brocade, and some fruits, which were available in this era but not common, such as watermelon, Hami melon, grapes, and lychees. They were put in a fruit basket, and two bottles of Maotai, with the packaging changed, and two packs of the finest Dahongpao tea.

With Da Niu driving the cart, Xun took her family to the home of a kind-hearted man.

The ancestors of the philanthropist's family were officials, but they were just a branch of the side branch. They had not produced any talented people for several generations. By the time of the philanthropist's son, they finally had two scholars who became officials in other counties. There was also a younger generation who was a businessman and his business was very prosperous. Therefore, the philanthropist paid more attention to doing good and accumulating virtue.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the kind-hearted man's house was a little tense, and the story began half an hour ago.

"Good man, I am the mother-in-law of the Mi family, Ms. Qian. The Xun family has become rich, but they still occupy your house. I think they don't want to give it to you anymore. You don't know that her daughter welcomed a son-in-law yesterday. It was such a grand ceremony. Wow, you are just too kind-hearted. If you help those who really need help, they will thank you. But now in the eyes of the Xun family, your family is just fools." Seeing that the good man didn't say anything, Ms. Qian started to talk nonsense.

"Shut up." A nephew of the philanthropist saw that the philanthropist's face turned red with anger, and immediately spoke out to stop him.

"Don't think we know nothing just because we live here. It's your fault that the Xun family was driven out and left penniless. How to treat the Xun family is my uncle's business. You don't need to interfere. Please go back and show them away." The nephew of the kind-hearted man drove Mrs. Qian out.

So, several masters of the great man's house sat in the lobby to discuss the matter.

"It's just a house, just live in it." The kind-hearted man waved his hand.

"Dad, when we help people in times of danger, we are doing good deeds, but when facing those people with impure intentions, they are bullying us. Your son thinks that we should understand the situation. If the Xun family is not living well, let them continue to live there. If it is as Mrs. Qian said, then we have to talk to them." said the son of the kind-hearted man.

"Well, okay, you go and take a look later." said the kind-hearted man.

Just then, the doorman came running to report that the Xun family had arrived.

The kind man nodded.

"Dad, they..."

"Wait and see how things develop, and don't forget to make a conclusion." The kind-hearted man understood his son's thoughts, but he didn't know the other person's purpose, so it was too early to say anything.

As soon as Xun and others entered the house, the kind-hearted man discovered that the overall temperament of this family was different, one in the way they were dressed, the other in their mental outlook.

It seems that Mrs. Qian is right.

"Greetings, great man." Xun took the lead in paying respects.

"You're welcome, take a seat." The kind-hearted man said in a kind manner.

"Thank you, kind man." Xun sat down and everyone else stood.

"I wonder what brings you here, Madam Xun?" The kind-hearted man had a kind attitude, but his question sounded a little angry.

"Thank you very much for lending your house to my mother and me for so many years. Hui Niang is very grateful. My eldest daughter came to visit a few days ago and wanted to take us to her place, so I hurriedly arranged the wedding for my second daughter yesterday. We are leaving today. Before leaving, I came to visit you and prepared a small gift. I hope you won't despise it." As Xun said this, the servants brought the Xun family's things over.

As soon as the kind-hearted man and his family took a look at the cloth, they knew that these pieces of cloth would cost two hundred taels of silver. And the tea and wine were definitely not cheap goods. As for the red and green fruits in the fruit basket, except for the watermelon and grapes, he really didn't know what the other two were.
