The Bai family's residence was swiftly completed; at noon on the day of its completion, Manbao and her classmates didn't eat at school but instead followed Bai Shanbao into the new house for their meal.
Old Madam Bai, Ms. Liu was exceptionally generous, hiring a cook from the county town and inviting many villagers to help, specifically arranging a day-long banquet.
All guests were welcomed to join the feast without the need for gifts.
As Qili Village's most prominent figure, Mr. Zhuang was naturally on the invite list, and of course, Manbao and her classmates were called over as well.
From the village, everyone who could walk, from sixty-year-old women to babies old enough to eat solid food, all attended.
