When Su Wan drank the soup Old Madam Lai who was watching the show heaved a sigh of relief. With such a powerful aphrodisiac it was impossible for Su Wan to escape from their grasp, of course, her actions were caught by Second Madam Lai who wished to tell her sister that she was relaxing very soon but of course, she could not say anything.
Because if she dared to say a single word against Su Wan, her secret that she had been hiding for years would come out.
So she stared at her hands that were resting in her lap and did not say a single thing out loud. Instead, she calmly drank her soup while watching Su Wan who was rather amused.
Once the soup was served, the monks started to chant inscriptions which basically meant that they were hoping and praying to the Sea God asking him to continue blessing their town such that they would not starve, while praying to Mother Nature that she would be kind to them.
As they spoke, small dishes continued to be served. Su Wan of course did not like any one of them but she learned from her grandmother that she should always finish eating what was on her table.
However, no matter what she ate, there was something added to them. Su Wan chuckled when she drank and ate, though she was not surprised she had to say that the Lai family was ruthless.
The amount of aphrodisiac that they added to the dishes was beyond anyone's limits if she had not taken the antidote that was handed to her by Lin Yu then she would have torn her clothes off and rushed to any man sitting close to her.
She was fortunate that her husband was now learning medicine from the imperial physician who was healing his broken leg.

While the monks were reciting, Second Madam Lai excused herself by saying that she had something to do and left for the resting area, when she left, Su Wan curled her lips. It looked like the show was about to start very soon, what a tragedy she was thinking of enjoying this anticipation a bit more but from the looks of it the Lai family was quite impatient.
On the other hand, when Second Madam Lai walked past the resting area, she bumped into Madam Ding who was waiting for her at the small archway which separated the male and female quarters. When Madam Ding saw Second Madam Lai, she hurriedly walked over to her and asked, " When are you going to take me to Fourth Lai?
It's already way past seven, if I don't pull him down then my husband will drag me away."
Second Madam Lai was quite unhappy with this woman. No matter what fourth Lai was her family member, how could she be happy after pushing such a woman in his arms? Not only was this woman daring but she was also shameless.
Though Second Madam Lai was dissatisfied with the woman she did not say anything to her. She took out the aphrodisiac that she had smuggled from the room of her sister and handed it to Madam Ding before saying, " This is the aphrodisiac that I brought, It is quite potent and will make anyone go crazy as long as they take a sip of it.
His face was marred with displeasure as he sneered and then said, " What are you doing here, are you upset that I did not come to look for you? Don't worry.
I understand that you are angry but in a few days when everything calms down, I will come to ask your hand in marriage." He then pushed his displeasure aside and added, " You know that my family is in trouble these days because of that county magistrate. With these things going on, how can I tell my sister-in-law that I want to marry a married woman?"
He knew that this woman wanted to marry him, but in Fourth Lai's heart, this woman was like a she toad trying to eat the cob's meat.
To think that she was actually thinking of marrying him? Why did she not stay at home and calmly take a look at herself in the mirror?
Even if he wanted to marry, he would not marry someone like Madam Ding who was like a piece of baggage. For him only someone like Su Wan was worthy who was not only beautiful but also witty with a ton of money, even if she was loose in her character, she had money to make it up for her but what about Madam Ding? What did she have?
As for the five husbands? Hehe. He was going to take care of them and then beat the sh*t out of Su Wan until she learned her place. With his fists and kicks how would that woman not learn?
When she was suppressed all her properties would belong to him, he would be the richest person in this town!
Compared to her, who was Madam Ding? How could she even compare to her?
Just thinking about the beautiful face and the voluptuous body of that woman whom he just saw, Fourth Lai could not help but blush in excitement.
Madam Ding was furious when she saw the excitement on the face of Fourth Lai. She was a woman how could she not see what was going on in Fourth Lai's mind? He was talking about this and that to her, even promising her that he was going to marry her but the truth was that he was actually dreaming of marrying Su Wan!
Just the thought alone was enough to enrage Madam Ding as she took out the moon cake that she brought with her and when Fourth Lai was lost in his thoughts, she pushed it inside his mouth. Then she pushed him against the bed such that his head was knocked against the bedpost.
Though she was a small woman, Fourth Lai was unprepared and thus he stumbled when he was pushed by Madam Ding.
His head hit the bedpost and he ended up falling unconscious.
When Madam Ding saw that he was unconscious, she cheered up and then turned around to leave. She was going to make the most of this opportunity no matter what!
