The place where the Qiong Family and the Ning Family entertain guests is not in a tavern.
Instead, it is in a newly acquired house by the Ning Family.
The architectural style of this world is not like Baiyu's previous life, which followed one style; rather, it is a flourishing diversity. Whether it's pavilions, towers, or ancient castles and manors, all are visible.
The Ning Family sought out such a large courtyard.
This courtyard was originally a residence of the Zhong Family, one of the twelve Imperial families, but unfortunately, like the Qiong Family, their fortunes have declined, forcing them to sell off ancestral property, leading to further decline day by day.
It's even heard that the Zhong Family recently had to rely on marriage alliances through their children to get by.
Simply put.
It means selling off sons and daughters.
