Bab 105: New Year

New Year's Eve finally arrived. After breakfast, Ji Yuxian and Ji Ze brought Su Jiu, the Second Mistress, Madame Xie, and the others to the ancestral hall to pay their respects.

Ji Ze wore a yellowish-white robe. Set against his beautiful eyes, he emitted the aura of a scholar. Ji Yuxian followed directly behind. From the looks of it, he seemed to admire his older brother genuinely.

After the Second Mistress offered incense, she kneeled on the ground to pray, "I pray that the ancestors watch over and bless the Ji family's business. I pray that Yuxian and the Young Mistress live a long and prosperous life. I pray that Ji Ze passes the imperial examination this spring."

The imperial examinations, which Ji Ze was going to sit for, were taking place this spring in the third month.

Su Jiu brought Madame Xie, Madame Ren, and Madame Chen as they stepped forward to offer incense separately.
