In the afternoon, a horse carriage stopped at the entrance of the Tan Family's Door, attracting many onlookers. Those who could afford a horse carriage were certainly not country bumpkins.
Sure enough, a lavishly dressed woman alighted from the carriage, followed by a small Maid.
"Look at those silk garments, she must be from a wealthy family!"
"Father, just look at that fine horse, don't you know? Its size and vigor speak for it, could it possibly be cheap?"
"What do you think she's doing at the Tan Family's place?"
They had never heard of the Tan Family having such wealthy relatives, nor were there any unmarried girls or lads. They truly couldn't think of a reason.
The crowd buzzed with speculation, each person craning their necks to get a better look inside.
Although the carriage was luxurious, they were more curious to know what business it brought to the Tan Family.
Maybe it was the Tan Family's lucky break, perhaps heralding a wealthy future.
