章節 134: Burning the Ancestral Hall (1)

The east courtyard of the General's Mansion was naturally very lively. Guests came and went, congratulating and giving gifts. Before the banquet started, it was already filled with joy.

Old Madam Shen had always pretended to be generous in front of outsiders. Every time a girl went up to congratulate her, she would always give them some expensive gifts. Seeing this, the smiles on those ladies' faces became more sincere, but Ren Wanyun gritted her teeth.

Ren Wanyun was in charge of the money in the government. Usually, she had to settle the affairs of the three branches. The more the old madam squandered, the less money she could fill her own pockets. Moreover, Shen Gui usually needed money to socialize in the bureaucracy. In this way, she would probably be short of money in the coming days.
