"Yes," everyone answered in unison.
"Alright, you all should go and rest early. Everyone will need to get up early tomorrow, and it will be a tiring day." The old master Xia looked at them and after he finished speaking, he and his wife stood up, left the living room, and with the matron's accompaniment, returned to their courtyard.
"The rest of you young ones should not stay up too late tonight, as you will need to wake up around five or six in the morning. Let's head back too;" Xia Linyao, with his wife in tow, directed at the younger family members, and then left himself.
Seeing their eldest brother leave, Xia Linsong and Xia Linjun also took their wives and retired to their rooms.
Song Qin wanted to say something before she left, but remained silent.
"When did I ever say that I wanted to guide guests at the front? I wasn't there when you were all discussing that," Xia Qing announced once the adults had left.
"Xia Qing, watch your tone," Xia Tian sternly ordered.
