A small-scale banquet started at noon and ended by evening.
The gorgeous sunset dyed half the sky red, enveloping the entire traditional courtyard in a layer of orange glow, adding a touch of romantic haze.
Old Master Lu, who claimed to have quit drinking for years, picked up his wine glass the moment Lu Changchuan and Ye Wan toasted him, then boldly declared he would make an exception today.
Not stopping there, Old Master Lu also asked the old butler to fetch that barrel of Houer wine from his cellar, which he usually just sniffed but never drank.
A barrel of Houer wine was shared among Old Master Lu, Old Qin, Elder Luo, and Boss Dai, praising the accomplished descendants, lamenting over the less successful ones, reminiscing about the past, and drinking to the point of bliss.
