In recent years, the Liu family has developed quite well. They have managed their shop without expanding but have accumulated a considerable family fortune.
They have acquired real estate in the town, leading a stable life.
Last year, the Qian couple became grandparents. With their wealth, they are preparing to become great-grandparents this year, as their daughter-in-law is expecting.
Shopkeeper Tong of Jingtai Restaurant also invested in real estate and handed over the restaurant to his son as he aged.
The emperor and empress, considering themselves guests, actively host guests.
Except for Mayor Qian, no one else knew their true identities.
In a few years, this couple managed to lure the emperor and empress back home for the New Year, a feat unimaginable to others.
On the second day of the New Year, Qiao Mai entertained the Liu family. On the third day, Madam Qiao Lu from Lihua Village passed away.
