Unfortunately, by the time Liu Ji arrived, Zhen Yubai had already left.
He had just come to ask the scholars to write an inspiring poem for the schoolchildren and left as soon as he got it.
Liu Ji, who never wasted time, spent an entire day consumed by his own thoughts, suspicious and lethargic.
In the evening, the children returned from the county with news that the Song Family would visit Liu Family Village for a few days.
Last time Song Zhang said he'd come was before Mid-Autumn Festival, but he didn't make it.
Unexpectedly, now that the weather has cooled down, he has time to visit.
Qin Yao asked Ah Wang, "Did they say how long they're staying?"
Ah Wang replied, "They didn't specify, but it should be three to five days. I noticed the Song Family servants bought a lot of things in town today, so they might be staying a while."
Liu Ji was excited, eagerly discussing with Qin Yao, "Should we prepare anything? How about I go and tidy up the Song Family's courtyard?"
