Bab 124: 125_1

"We'll go hunting up the mountains again tomorrow, to stock up on meat for the Spring Festival," Brother Ye said.

"What about the first to the tenth day? The Spring Festival lasts ten days."

"We'll go and roam around," Brother Ye said.

"Oh."

It was now Nan Quanyou's turn to hold the ancestral worship, so he called Nan Feng over, and she said to Brother Ye: "I'll go to worship the ancestors first."

"Go ahead," Brother Ye replied nonchalantly.

...

After worshiping the ancestors, they came back at dusk. Nan Quanyou slaughtered a chicken, and Nan Feng cleaned up the house.

Just before dinner, the Clan Chief really came.

The Clan Chief's name was Nan Meng, who was in his forties. He ran a shoe sole business in town and didn't come back to the village often. The villagers regarded him remarkable because few people in the village run a business in town, so they usually respect him.
