The Second Lang couple also came for the Xie Family Fish Pond.
Earlier, when Song Yuanbao was reporting the news from the Capital to Aunt Xie in the main room, Song Erlang and his wife were contemplating in their own room.
The Second Lang's wife had long given up hope on her mother-in-law, knowing that even if the Third Son passed the advanced scholar exam and became an official, bringing Yuanbao to fetch people, it would not be their second household's turn, so she didn't bother to flatter and embarrass herself. She discussed with her husband that, if the Xie Family wanted to go to Beijing, they should spend some money to take over their fish pond.
The surrounding relatives, whether becoming officials or doing business, were all living prosperous lives, each better than the last.
When the Second Lang's wife compared, she found that their family was the most insignificant, neither having a son nor having silver.
