Shi Qi Shan quickly discussed what he had learned today with his confidant. In the evening, he and his wife also talked about the Lin family.

The prefectural magistrate's wife, Mrs. Shi, came from an influential family. After hearing the news, she quickly analyzed the situation with her husband. She felt that they could stand to get closer to this Lin family.

In her head, she sort through all of her interpersonal relationships and recalled that she previously had some friendly relations with the Qin family that Lin-xiaozhu's biological sister had married into. And she had also invited Mrs. Qin to attend several gatherings of upper-class women's families in Xu Province. In the future, they could start to create relations with the Lin family from this angle.

Shi Qi Shan discussed with his wife for a long time, and finally decided on what to give as a present on the day of the one-month celebration.

The following day, Shi Qi Shan invited the county head magistrate of Pei County, Du Xiang Heng, to talk with him about the Lin family.

When County Head Magistrate Du heard the news, he was also overjoyed. After all, a noble person had originated from their county. He also knew about the Lin family. The eldest child of the Lin family passed the county level imperial exam, and he had once praised him for it.

Shi Qi Shan said to County Head Magistrate Du: "This Lin family is under your jurisdiction. You should watch over them more often."

County Head Magistrate Du didn't need the prefectural magistrate to tell him twice. He promptly agreed.

Upon returning, County Head Magistrate Du immediately invited his old teacher to discuss with him. He planned to go in person to Lin Jia Wen's son's one-month celebration and present a gift.

Within a day, news that a noble person originated from Pei County spread among the upper-class families in Xu Province. All those families secretly planned to make friends with the Lin family.

In the blink of an eye, Bo Ge Er's one-month celebration day arrived. The Lin family specially invited a chef from the village who specialized in making noodles, and had six round tables set up for guests. Then they invited all the people from the village that they were familiar with to come celebrate the event.

Early in the morning, Zhou Hai's family came over to help out. The Qin family also arrived early. Mrs. Qin greeted Zhang Hui Niang in a cordial manner, and Lin Jin Er helped her mother welcome the incoming guests together.

Taking the chance before the start of the festivities, Wu-shi's mother talked to her daughter in her room.

[T/N: Reminder, Wu-shi (Wu Qiao Lan) is Lin Jia Wen's wife and Bo Ge Er's mother.]

Upon seeing Wu Qiao Lan's ruddy complexion, she knew that her daughter was well taken care of during her one-month confinement period.

"Seeing that you are living your days well, Mother is also happy for you. Your mother-in-law treats you well. In the future, you must be filial to them."

"Mother, I will..." Wu Qiao Lan replied.

Wu Qiao Lan was very happy right now. Her mother-in-law and father-in-law were kind. Her husband treated her very well and he also had ambitions to improve himself. Now, she also gave birth to a son. Everything was going well.
