Mrs. An, having decided to find a concubine for her son, began the search.
Now, everyone knew that Zuixiang Restaurant was the largest tavern in town. Upon hearing that Mrs. An wanted to choose a concubine for Gu Ya, many people eagerly sent their daughters to her.
Mrs. An selected a few whose looks and figures were outstanding, believing that no man would dislike those she chose.
Her son Gu Ya was also a man. No matter how much he liked Su Yunjin, after a long period, any couple would grow tired of each other; unlike these attractive new faces that entice.
Joyfully, Mrs. An noted down the names of the girls she had chosen, planning to send them to the Gu Residence once her son Gu Ya agreed.
Mrs. An knew that Gu Ya's father would surely not approve of this; so her plans to find a concubine for Gu Ya were all carried out in secrecy, behind Gu Chengxiang's back.
