After successfully arranging the marriage of Qin Silong and Chen Shanshan, the year was drawing to a close, and everyone eagerly anticipated the upcoming New Year festivities.
In ancient times, it was tradition to consider the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month as the year's end, effectively marking the beginning of the new year. The local prefectural school had a customary break starting on the 20th of December.
Both Su Bin's and the Qin family were making preparations to return to the countryside for the New Year celebrations. Qin Zhenzhen's parents had already traveled to the Qin Family Village along with her grandmother, and the rest of the family members were planning to join them before the 25th.
Su Qing and Qin Sanlong were the appointed representatives responsible for the family businesses, and they were also in charge of closing things down for the holiday season.
