Chapter 228: This Guy Came for Food

"This is my subordinate, Mentor Liu!"

"This subordinate pays respects to Master Yuan and Madam Yuan."

He then placed the gift box he held on the table at the head of the room.

Qiao Mai smirked, "Just call me Madam Qiao. It's more fitting. My husband married into my family, so he should take my family name, not the other way around."

County Governor Zhu had to cover his mouth to suppress a laugh; Madam Qiao was entertaining. Yuan Jiaqi didn't seem offended either.

"My wife is correct. According to Ming Dynasty laws, it should be this way. I willingly married into the family."

They explained it formally, making County Governor Zhu a bit awkward.

"Alright, Mentor Liu, please give red envelopes to the children."

The children immediately stepped forward and bowed. "Happy New Year, uncles!"

"Oh, your children are all so handsome and charming, especially this little girl. She's like a fairy. Their future is limitless."
