Today is a festival, and such a big decision was made, so the old patriarch was in a very good mood. He told Mrs. Chen and the others to hurry up and cook the meal; the old patriarch wanted to drink a couple of glasses of wine. "Wife, it's almost noon now, get the meal ready quickly. We should have a lively noon today, I am feeling very happy and want to drink a bit."
The old lady also had a face full of joy and quickly got to her feet, "Alright, you wait, us women will get busy right away." Saying so, she went out. Mrs. Xue and Mrs. Zhu hurried out after her, all going to help with the cooking.
The few servant girls also had sharp eyes; seeing the situation, they naturally hurried out to help with the chores.
