บท 643: Chapter 641

It was Mrs. Liu Lin's birthday, bringing together many attendees, including the wives of local officials and prominent merchants and landlords alike.

Originally, Mrs. Tan, the Magistrate's wife, and the wife of the local magistrate only planned on sending gifts, but when they heard that Marquis Shengping's wife and the Lady of Rui'an County were personally congratulating Mrs. Liu Lin, they too hurried over.

Outside, where the chill of winter held sway, the inside of the room was kept toastily warm by the underfloor heating system, creating a feeling as comforting as spring.

Mrs. Tan was already well-acquainted with these ladies. After all, her husband owns a furniture shop, and everyone had daughters to marry off and sons to wed. In the hope of obtaining quality dowries or new room furnishings, they were all willing to make a friend of Mrs. Tan.

Moreover, Mrs. Tan was backed by the Marquis Shengping's wife and the Lady of Rui'an County.
