Because she unexpectedly received a dowry of 10,000 taels and the new house was just ready for a celebration, Xuexue decided to throw a big party and invite everyone from the village.
So, she went to the market to find a familiar butcher and arranged for him to slaughter two pigs and deliver them to the Mo Family Village on the day of the feast. Now, as the weather was getting progressively hotter, if the pork was bought too early, it might spoil. Having the butcher deliver it on the same day would ensure everyone could enjoy fresh pork.
"Miss Mo, it's been several days since I've seen you in town?"
Just as she entered the market, a man from a nearby meat stall came up to greet her warmly.
Normally, because he was friendly and kind to everyone and didn't care if one was rich or poor, whether one bought much or little, he always greeted with a smile. Xuexue found this comforting, so she had gotten into the habit of buying most of her meat from him.
