Wen Wan and her group were still offering incense in the treasure hall when Xu Jia returned. Mrs. Xu was donating incense money.
Xu Jia saw that her mother was giving large silver notes, totaling several thousand taels.
Xu Jia was momentarily surprised.
Though her mother was not stingy, she was usually not so extravagant, always considering the household expenses. Donating so much at once today, it seemed she was in a good mood because of her daughter's affair.
Collecting her thoughts, Xu Jia approached and called out to her mother.
Mrs. Xu turned and saw her daughter's rosy cheeks and vibrant demeanor, immediately realizing the marriage was settled. Her eyes lit up, "Jiajia..."
Xu Jia glanced up at the solemn Buddha statue ahead, clasped her hands together, and said to Mrs. Xu, "In front of the Buddha is not a place for talking. Let's go to the guest courtyard and talk slowly later."
