The ground was slick and muddy from the recent rain and snow, and the carriage left shallow ruts as it passed.
Sunx Yi lifted the carriage curtain and looked out at the street.
"Sis."
He pointed to a street vendor:
"Look! That person's clay figurines look just like real people."
"Sunx Yi." Sunx Youshan frowned.
"You're not a child anymore. Stop making a fuss over every little thing like one. You should be thinking more about our family."
"Oh." Sunx Yi pouted and sullenly drew his gaze back inside.
"Who all is coming today?"
"All the more well-known members of the younger generation in Leping County were invited." Sunx Youshan sat up straight and said,
"Hua Wenhua of the Hua Family, Hex Leshan of the Hex Family, Wan Jing of the Wan Family, and Leng Xing of the Leng Family…"
"Brother Leng is coming too?" Sunx Yi smiled.
"At least there'll be someone I know."
