Situ Yongjie had been staying in Mo Family Village for some days, and the buzz was extraordinary all around the neighborhood; every day, there were village heads, accompanied by village representatives or Elders, arriving with gifts of all shapes and sizes.
In front of the Xie Residence, it was bustling every day with a constant stream of carriages and horses, but Situ Yongjie paid no attention, hiding inside every day, playing chess and drinking tea with the county magistrate, enjoying a carefree and jubilant life.
The village head was running back and forth tending to the two of them.
Madam Xie, meanwhile, was incessantly busy in front of the gate, getting her hands cramped from accepting so many gifts every day.
