Lin Xuan Qi was discussing the details of the charity porridge drive with Sima Ye and Sima Long, if the Governor approved it, when Xue Cong, Yue Jie and Madam Sai entered back into the main hall.
"Master Lin, I'm done with my briefing for the brides." Madam Sai bowed and greeted him.
He quickly stood up and walked over to her.
"Thanks so much for all the help." Lin Xuan Qi took out a tael of silver from his sleeve pocket and passed it to her.
"Oh my, Master Lin, you shouldn't have." Madam Sai tried to push back the tael of silver, trying to be polite.
He gave a smile, and said, "You deserve it for all the hard work."
Madam Sai relented after some pushing back and forth of the tael of silver and kept it.
She wiped her face with her handkerchief and said, "I shall go back and look at the calendar for an auspicious date.
"Most likely the wedding date will be in two weeks' time."
Lin Xuan Qi nodded his head and said, "Thanks so much once again.
