Today, not only did Zhang Meihua’s relatives come over, but Zhang Meihua also invited some of her old friends from when she was young and when she was old.
When one reached middle age or old age, they loved to show off how rich their so-and-so descendants were, where they bought a few houses, how many betrothal gifts they received from the man when their daughter got married, and how grand the engagement banquet and wedding were, and how rich the man was, and how well their granddaughter got married.
This was probably the thing that Zhang Meihua loved to brag about the most in her generation.
When she was young, everyone loved to brag about the things that young people did. When she was old, there were things that old people bragged about themselves. This was the path that most people had to take in their entire lives.
