When he heard about the disturbance, Wan Zhongyuan’s expression imdiately darkened. Those four unfilial sons... He knew them all too well. If not for Qin Mu, truly no one else could control them! And this ti, it was also Qin Mu who had stepped in and had Jiang Daping and his three companions carried away. Jiang Daping and his group were behaving shalessly at the wedding venue, almost ruining their retirent ho’s major publicity plans!
However, how were there so many court officials at the scene? And hundreds of lawyers? Wan Zhongyuan swallowed hard, surprised and confused. A proper wedding would have family and friends as guests. But Zhang Qingyuan’s wedding... it seed everyone invited was connected to the judiciary or were legal professionals! Four people were even directly taken away at the wedding!
It was said that lawyers’ business cards were scattered all over the place, and the retirent ho’s cleaning staff had been sweeping for half a day. They represented nearly half of Jin City’s legal circle.
It’s probably related to Qin Mu... Wan Zhongyuan took a deep breath, quickly pinpointing the source. Apart from Qin Mu, no one else could have such extensive influence. What he couldn’t understand was how people from other professions saw Qin Mu as a fearso tiger, avoiding him at all costs, while those within the legal circle treated him like a deity, flocking to him eagerly. It was utterly ludicrous!
「Evening.」
In the retirent ho dormitory.
This dormitory room was decorated very festively, covered with red ’happiness’ characters everywhere. Two red candles were even lit.
At this mont, Zhang Qingyuan and Feng Cuihua were sitting opposite each other, counting red packets. After a busy day, they had both returned to their "wedding room." As for consummating the marriage, they were both too exhausted and didn’t have any thoughts about it.
"One hundred thirty-seven, one hundred thirty-eight, one hundred thirty-nine..."
Both of them had their heads bowed, hands clutching a thick stack of red bills, counting continuously. They counted for a full hour before finally finishing the tally of the red packets they had received.
"Zhang... Brother Zhang... did we just collect three hundred thousand in gifts?" Feng Cuihua looked at the mountain-like pile of red bills in front of her, unable to resist swallowing.
This money had all co from the guests attending the banquet today. So gave one or two hundred, others eight or nine hundred. But on average, from eighty tables, the total gift money reached three hundred thousand!
For the two of them, it was undoubtedly a huge sum!
Moreover, the banquet was catered by the retirent ho, so the food, drinks, and venue fees had nothing to do with them. They had no costs. It was as if by getting married this ti, they had directly made three hundred thousand!
"Zhang... Brother Zhang, how is your network in Jin City so extensive?" Feng Cuihua looked at Zhang Qingyuan, full of admiration, her eyes twinkling with little stars.
The majority of this money, naturally, ca from the lawyers who attended the wedding. These lawyers seed to understand social etiquette very well, as they all gave generous amounts of gift money. This truly showed Zhang Qingyuan’s influence.
"Humph!" Zhang Qingyuan stood tall and proud, proudly stating, "Naturally, have you forgotten how many trials I’ve been part of? The court officials owe so favors, and these lawyers are no exception!"
"You don’t know? The legendary ’Half City Zhang’ of Jin City—that’s !"
"When I stamp my foot, Jin City trembles!"
Being praised by Feng Cuihua like this, he got carried away. In front of his beloved, he couldn’t help but boast a bit more.
And so, one dared to claim, and the other dared to believe.
Feng Cuihua’s gaze towards Zhang Qingyuan beca even more worshipful.
As for her four sons, after this series of events and Zhang Qingyuan’s guidance, she no longer dwelled on the matter. She had spent her life toiling for her sons; it was ti to live for herself.
Moreover, this case involved serious illegal activities committed during a probationary period. Even if she wanted to forgive them, she was powerless to do so. The court would pass its judgnt regardless.
With this gift money, their lives would be greatly improved. At least they wouldn’t be so destitute anymore.
