"Uncle, Dad, we're back! The matter has been resolved, and the Fan family has apologized in public!"
"Okay, that's good. Everyone must be hungry, come and eat."
Jiang's mother prepared the meal, thinking that everyone had gotten up early and was hungry.
"Sister-in-law Xin, we're full. Shuyun's family is taking us to Shuwen's place for a meal."
"That's good, I was worried you'd be hungry if you rushed back."
Jiang's mother knew that her second daughter-in-law wouldn't let everyone come back hungry, but she was afraid that Jiang Qin and his brother would bring people back directly.
"Father, Mother, I'm back."
Jiang Shuwen was busy getting everyone to carry the pork when he entered the yard a little late.
"Shuwen, why are you back? Isn't the shop busy?"

"Ziwen, take the meat to the ancestral hall later and stew it in the open space over there. Let the ancestors of the Jiang family smell it and know that our Jiang family has made something of itself."
"Okay, I'll do as Uncle says."
Jiang's father asked Shuwen to go along and make arrangements, which was the best approach, since there were few people in the family and it would be too much work for them to manage.
The Jiang clan members were overjoyed as they prepared to stew the meat. Half a pig must weigh about 180 jin!
People of other surnames looked at the Jiang family with envy, wondering when their own clans would produce such a member.
