There was a large mansion in the southern suburbs of Qingping Town, which had recently moved into a new family. It seemed to be a wealthy family from the south, with many housekeepers, maids, and servants. It was said that the owner's surname was Wang, and his name was Wang Million, who was in the silk business. And there was a beautiful jade lady in this family, which could be said to be a national beauty, and everyone in Qingping Town wanted to see her beauty.

On this day, the housekeeper Wang Xi posted a notice at the door, to the effect that the owner came from the south to do business, and felt that the climate here was suitable and the traffic was well connected, so he intended to settle here. There is a little daughter who is 18 years old and has not yet married, and wants to recruit relatives for her daughter. After getting married, the family wealth will belong to their young husband and wife.

Wang Xi cleared his throat and signaled for everyone to be quiet. So he said, "My miss needs to meet three conditions to recruit relatives. The first family is an official family or a business person, so that they can inherit the family business. Second, she is good at socializing and has local contacts. Third, she is filial to her parents. After speaking, two people stood out from the crowd, one was Huang Sanlang and the other is Sun Daqing. Both of them are sons of the rich man's family in Qingping Town. They are handsome and flexible.

Huang Sanlang and Sun Daqing shook hands, and the two were invited to the attic. Meiyu saw that the two of them had extraordinary temperament and were well dressed, and she liked them very much. When the guest was seated, Huang Sanlang and Sun Daqing both talked about their family business. Meiyu smiled and nodded from time to time, and Huang Sanlang and Sun Daqing could see their minds. Meiyu picked up the teacup, and the housekeeper understood that this meant sending the guest off, so he said to the two of them, "Two young masters, it's getting late, you two go back to rest and wait for good news." Huang Sanlang and Sun Daqing said goodbye to each other and went home.

Huang Sanlang sat at home for a while, only to hear a knock on the door. When he opened the door, he saw that it was Wang Xi, the housekeeper of the Wang family, and hurriedly welcomed him in: "You are here, please take a seat inside." Wang Xi didn't enter the door either, and whispered: "My Miss Meiyu is interested in you and wants to invite you to the second guard in the Wang family's backyard for a while." After saying that, he left. Huang Sanlang was secretly excited, and when he arrived at the second guard, he saw Meiyu wandering at the door of the Wang family's backyard. Huang Sanlang walked to Meiyu: "I have kept my wife waiting for a long time, and I am lucky to be favored by the girl."

Meiyu smiled and took Huang Saburo's hand, "As soon as I saw Young Master today, I knew that you were the person I was waiting for, but I didn't know how the relationship between Young Master was, so I dared to ask Young Master to come and continue." Huang Saburo said excitedly, "If you and I are married, I will love you forever and never leave." Just as the two were talking, the lights in the backyard house lit up and footsteps came. Meiyu hurriedly said to Huang Saburo, "Hurry up, maybe it's my father who's here, don't let him see it, come back tomorrow morning to visit my father, remember it's morning." Huang Saburo hurriedly left.

On the fourth watch, Sun Daqing also came to backyard of the Wang family, where Meiyu was waiting. She said the same thing to Sun Daqing: "As soon as I saw Young Master today, I knew that you were the person I was waiting for, but I didn't know how the relationship between Young Master was, so I dared ask Young Master to come and continue." Then when the two of them were glued together, the lights in the backyard lit up again, and the footsteps got closer and closer. Meiyu pushed Sun Daqing away and told him to go quickly, and asked him to come back tomorrow evening to visit his father, it must be evening.

It turned out that Meiyu asked the housekeeper to send the same message to Sun Daqing, but the meeting time was four more days.

The next morning, Huang Sanlang came to the Wang family with some gold and silver jewelry and other gifts in a box. Wang Wanwan took the gift and drank tea with Huang Sanlang, and Wang Wanwan was playing with a Wenwan walnut in his hand, which looked like it had been on the plate for some years. But Huang Sanlang knew that Wenwan walnuts were usually two pairs, but Wang Wanwan only had one in his hand. So he asked curiously, "I dare to ask why you only have one Wenwan walnut?" Meiyu next to him said, "It's good that you don't mention it. My father has been cooking Wenwan walnuts for almost ten years. A pair can be said to be priceless, but when I came a few days ago, I somehow lost it on the way. Now I am sad. If only I could find it." The three of them gossiped again and sent Huang Saburo away with tea.

The next day, before Huang Saburo went out, he heard a vendor shouting at the door, "Selling Wenwan calligraphy and painting works of art." Huang Saburo was excited, and when he opened the door, he saw that there was indeed a vendor pushing a small cart, which was filled with celebrity calligraphy and paintings, porcelain, and all kinds of Wenwan walnuts. Suddenly, Huang Saburo found a beautiful wooden box in the middle containing a single Wenwan walnut, which was almost exactly the same as the one he saw in the Wang family yesterday, because Wenwan walnuts of this quality were too hard to find and easy to identify. Huang Saburo thought that if he could buy it and give it to Wang Million, he would definitely be able to win his favor, so it would be easier to marry Meiyu.

So he asked the peddler, "How do you sell this walnut?" The peddler smiled and said, "You really have a good eye, and you can see my treasure at a glance. To tell you the truth, my Wenwan walnut is worth more than the calligraphy and painting of this car. If it is a pair, you can buy your house. No bargaining, one thousand taels of silver." Although Huang Saburo is also used to being rich, one thousand taels is almost equivalent to his annual expenses. So he wanted to get a refund: "Do you think eight hundred taels is okay?" The peddler was anxious at the time: "I didn't sell it for one thousand two hundred taels before. I just gave you this price because you talked politely. Don't pull it down." After saying that, he turned his head and left. Huang Sanlang hurriedly stopped him. Further ahead was the Wang family. If Wang Million found Wenwan walnuts, he would have no chance to offer his filial piety.

Huang Sanlang took Wenwan walnuts to the Wang family and gave them to Wang Million. The baby was lost and found, and Wang Million was overjoyed, and immediately said, "Seeing how attentive you are, I believe you will treat my daughter well. I promise to betroth my daughter to you. I will send you a gift tomorrow, and come to marry on the tenth day of September." Huang Sanlang left with satisfaction, and sent 66,000 taels of dowry the next day, only to marry ten days later.

This kind of plot was repeated on Sun Daqing, but it was only half a beat later than Huang Saburo. That afternoon, Sun Daqing went to visit Meiyu's father with a gift, but Wang Wanwan still had a Wenwan walnut. After returning, Sun Daqing met a vendor at the door of his house and found another one. He spent 2,000 taels of silver to buy it for Wang Wanwan, then Wang Wanwan promised to betroth his daughter to Sun Daqing, agreed to give a bride price of 100,000 the next day, and came to marry on the tenth day of September.

On the tenth day of September, the Huang Sanlang family and Sun Daqing's family were brightly lit, and the two teams rushed to the Wang family, only to find that something was wrong when they arrived. Seeing the Wang family's door closed, a strange man came out after knocking on the door for a long time. Huang Sanlang asked, "Where's Meiyu?" The man shook his head and said he didn't know him. Sun Daqing asked again, "Where's Wang Million?" The man suddenly realized: "You said to my tenant, he moved away a few days ago. He said he was here for a trip and rented my yard for half a month, twenty taels of silver, and I still have the bill."

Only then did everyone realize it was a complete scam.

A married woman, a pair of walnuts, cheated 170,000 snowflake silver.
