There were also red fruits and yellow and beautiful oranges. Usually, these were not something that ordinary people like them could eat.

These fruits were cheaper than two years ago, but no matter how cheap they were, they couldn’t afford them.

How could they be willing to pay more than ten taels per catty?

But now, these things that were only enjoyed by rich families were enjoyed in Lin Yiwei’s house.

It was really too extravagant!

However, they were lucky!

Anyone who came to Lin Yiwei’s house for the banquet would be attracted by the things on the table the moment they entered the courtyard.

However, before the banquet began, they did not dare to touch the food on the table. Even if they wanted to eat until they drooled or the children clamoured to eat, they were all held back by the adults!

This was no ordinary banquet.

This was Lin Mingqings Scholar’s Banquet. It meant that he could become a government official.

Besides, everyone in the surrounding villages knew that Lin Yiwei’s family had the best relationship with Princess Gu, Lin Yuelan. If they offended Lin Mingqing, it was fine. After all, they were fellow villagers. They would just turn a blind eye.

However, it would be terrible if they offended the princess of Guguo because of this. After all, these things were hers.

It was said that the villagers of Lin Family Village were beheaded just because they gossiped about the princess of Guguo. Their corpses were not even sent back home. They had to wander the outside world as lonely ghosts. They were very pitiful.

To them, not being able to find a place to live after death and becoming a lonely ghost was something more terrifying than being beheaded.

Therefore, the High Scholar’s family had given them face and invited them over for a banquet. They could not do anything rash because of this, right?

“Congratulations, congratulations!” Every guest would congratulate Lin Yiwei and the others who were standing at the door to welcome them.” Congratulations, High Scholar Old Master!”

Since Lin Mingqing was now a High Scholar, as the High Scholar’s father, Lin Yiwei was naturally the High Scholar Old Master.

Lin Yiwei said happily,” Thank you, thank you. Please come in!”

Guests from all the villages came to Lin Yiwei’s house early.

As for the villagers, each household sent a representative to help, such as washing the vegetables, cleaning the dishes, moving the tables and stools, and so on.

Of course, there were also a few families who did not come to help because they hated Lin Yiwei’s family. They only came to eat, take their things, and leave.

“High Scholar Old Master, when will the High Schola arrive home?”

According to the customs of their county, the banquet had to be held on the day the High Scholar returned home.

Of course, the meaning of this was to congratulate him and also to welcome him.

Lin Yiwei chuckled.” Yesterday, Mingqing sent a letter saying that he would arrive at noon.”

“Congratulations!” After the guest congratulated him again, he entered the courtyard.

Seeing the guests arrive one after another, Lin Yiwei looked at the time. It was almost noon.

It was a quarter to four in the afternoon, which meant that the banquet would be held around 12 noon.

Lin Yiwei’s wife was dressed very happily today. She was dressed in red, silk, and cotton, with a gold hairpin, a pair of gold earrings, and a gold bracelet. For a rural woman, such a dress was the wealth they dreamed of.

Mrs Lin had brought out all her jewellery for her son’s banquet.

Their life was not bad, to begin with, and in the past two years, it had become even better. Lin Yiwei was not stingy with buying gold jewellery for his wife.

Not only Madam Lin but the women in the house also had some new jewellery, either silver or gold.

This time, for such a grand banquet, all the women naturally brought out the gold and silver jewellery that these men bought for them.

When the other women saw this, they were really envious. They thought that after they went back this time, they would force their men to buy some accessories for them no matter what.

Even if it weren’t gold, silver would do!

“He’s back. He’s back…

It was already noon. The people guarding the village entrance immediately

ran back to report.

“The High Scholar is back, the High Scholar is back!” a young man said.

“Changqing, is Mingqing really back?” Lin Yiwei asked excitedly.

“Yes, uncle.” Lin Changqing replied with a smile,” Brother Mingqing is really impressive. He rode a horse. He’s rushing home.. Oh, the county magistrate is following behind! They’re almost at the village entrance now! “
