Speaking of which, Wang Sanlang was lucky.

After receiving All Yu’s praise previously, he kept his words in his heart and felt that he could learn everything quickly. Therefore, he took advantage of the time when he was in school to learn languages from his classmates from some border cities.

In just a few months, he really managed to learn seven to eight daily terms that were circulated in border cities.

On this day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Emperor Minghua had the Ministry of Rites earnestly entertain the envoys from the Western Wind Kingdom. However, due to the poor ability of both interpreters from both sides, communication was somewhat hindered.

Wang Sanlang originally planned to go on the streets and buy some small gifts for his wife and Ah Yu. He did not expect to encounter the scene of two groups of people gesturing with all their might. So, he went up to help them and inadvertently assumed the role of an interpreter.

“Third Brother, you’re not bad!” Wang Liulang’s face was filled with admiration as he sighed. “You only went out to buy something and got yourself an official position. This will anger those students to death.”

“Hehe, I’m just lucky. If not for the fact that I happened to be in the right place at the right time, I wouldn’t have gotten such an official position.” Wang Sanlang also felt that he was lucky. He turned to look at Ah Yu. “I have to thank our Ah Yu.”

Ah Yu was at a loss. “Why are you thanking me?” This matter had nothing to do with her.

Wang Sanlang: “Today is your birthday, and you’re our family’s blessing. This must be because of your blessings. That’s why everything went so smoothly for me. Who else can 1 thank but you?”

“Husband is right. Ah Yu, this stroke of good luck must have been brought here by you.” Wei Qianying also smiled and continued, “In that case, Husband has to prepare an additional gift for All Yu. You didn’t come to the night banquet, so you’re lacking in sincerity.”

“Naturally, there’s something for everyone. The Imperial Attendant’s Office official who just granted me an official position immediately presented me with a badge. They said I could go to the Myriad Treasures Pavilion under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Attendant’s Office, to make purchases. If I find something I like, I can buy it freely. For our own people, the price is only half. Additionally, officials under the Imperial Attendant’s Office receive a monthly allocation of twenty taels of silver, which can be used to select a gift of equal value for free at the Myriad Treasures Pavilion. Even if the price exceeds the allocation, the remaining portion can be paid at fifty percent of the price.”

Speaking of this, the children of the Wang Family became excited. Wang Liulang did not like literature, nor did he like martial arts. He only liked to explore those interesting places. He had long heard of this Myriad Treasures Pavilion. There were rare treasures from various countries gathered inside, and there were all kinds of prices. He had long wanted to see it.

Therefore, Wang Liulang pestered Wang Sanlang for the badge, only thinking that it would be more convenient to buy some of his favorite trinkets.

Now, the Wang Family’s monthly allowance had increased a few times, but Wang Liulang was not married yet and was still considered a child. His monthly allowance was only two taels. It was enough for the daily things, but it was completely insufficient to buy the novel and fun things.

However, Wang Sanlang did not give anyone his badge. He only said, “This can’t be lent to others. If you want to buy something, I’ll accompany you. Let me make this clear first. Even the cheapest things in the Myriad Treasures Pavilion won’t be cheap. You have to save your money first.”

“I know! I’m not married now, so of course I’ll spend while I can. Otherwise, when I get married in the future, my money will have to be handed over to my wife to manage. Perhaps 1 won’t be able to buy these things anymore,” Wang Liulang said very smoothly.

“Looks like our Liulang is already thinking of getting a wife.” Wang Erlang had approached the crowd at some point and suddenly spoke, startling Wang Liulang into looking at him warily.

Ever since the Big Brothers at home became married one after another, these unmarried younger brothers were often teased. At first, they felt embarrassed, but after saying it a few times, they became more thick-skinned than anyone else. They talked about the topic of wives every day, making the elders extremely helpless.

While the few of them were fooling around, Ah Yu watched from the side. The corners of her mouth curled up and she returned.

Qin Huai looked at Ah Yu from the side and felt that Ah Yu’s face seemed to have become much more exquisite. It was as if it had been carefully carved and polished by everyone, making her look a little more delicate.

He could not help but think that no wonder All Yu liked to look at good-looking people. She was so good-looking to begin with, so it was understandable that she liked her own kind.

Chi Jia saw Qin Huai suddenly touch his cheek and nod thoughtfully. He was a little puzzled. “Young Master, are there mosquitoes?”

“Huh?” Qin Huai couldn’t understand what Chi Jia meant.

Chi Jia: “I saw that you’ve been touching your face. Were you bitten by a mosquito?”

Qin Huai:”…”

Of course, he would not tell Chi Jia that he was just suddenly indulging in a bit of vanity..
