After three rounds of drinks, except for a few young ladies accompanying the party, everyone else was more or less tipsy.
The Second Young Master Song from Chai Market, eyes bleary, said to Bai Qi:
"Brother Bai, we truly envy you for joining Tongwen Hall and becoming the Instructor's apprentice.
Being born in Black River County, trying to break into Yihai Prefecture is no easy feat.
The splendor of small towns ultimately can't compare with making a name for yourself in the city, bringing honor to your ancestors—it's something to aspire to!"
Bai Qi curled his lips; these young noblemen have their noses in the air, never treating the mud-stained pants folk as humans.
Every day they feast on fish and meat, lacking nothing, served and managed by servants, yet they still complain it's not enough.
Little do they know, what they experience is something common folk would dream of for generations, laboring like cattle and horses.
