On the morning of Chinese New Year's Eve, even the newly bought servants joined the ranks of those exercising.
After the exercise had ended and a simple breakfast was eaten, the family donned their plain clothes and took with them the silver ingots and incense they had prepared in advance; it was necessary to visit the graves on New Year's Eve.
Although the main branch had severed ties, at that time they had only divided the family register and moved out of the Yang Family ancestral hall, but Yang Baiyue's grave had not been relocated from the ancestral cemetery, so they were headed to the Yang Family ancestral graves.
The Yang Family ancestral cemetery was halfway up the hillside and was mostly covered with graves.
The morning of New Year's Eve was the customary time for tomb visits, so it was inevitable to encounter other people, and everyone exchanged greetings with one another.
