"Sure!"
The villagers instantly became spirited. Their daily lives were not easy, and it was hard to maintain three meals a day. Many families would only afford to buy a little bit of meat during the holidays to indulge their cravings. Hearing that Xuexue was going to set up a banquet, they knew there would be plenty of meat and fish, and they became exceedingly excited, suddenly erupting into cheering that rose and fell in waves.
The arrival of high officials from the Capital was originally a joyous occasion, and now with Xuexue planning to host a feast, their happiness was even greater, rivaling, if not exceeding, the New Year celebrations.
So, everyone spread the news, and Mo Family Village was immersed in a chorus of cheers.
General Situ, the county magistrate, and the village head heard the noisy commotion at the door and came out to see what was happening.
"Daughter, why are they so happy? What happened?" General Situ asked Xuexue with a smile as she stood by the door.
