After relinquishing authority, Wufu drafted an invitation and had Liu Jin deliver it to Ah Jiu, officially inviting him to a housewarming celebration.
Once Liu Jin had dispatched the invitation and returned, he informed her that the Ninth Master had accepted the request, saying, "Miss, shall we order a banquet from Huixian Tower?"
He had heard from Xiao Li that when wealthy households hosted guests, many would order banquet spreads from famous restaurants to be served at their homes.
Wufu listened to his explanation and shook her head, saying, "No need. We are not organizing a grand feast, and we are only inviting him—probably with a few of his subordinates at most. Two tables of food should be more than enough. Just have Sister-in-law Qing prepare some home-cooked dishes."
Liu Jin had no choice but to agree.
