Ms. Wang couldn't help but break into a radiant smile as she laid eyes on the approaching carriage.
However, at this moment…
Her life had surpassed even the joy she experienced when Third Yan was still present. How could she not revel in happiness and contentment?
"Mom, everything is prepared; we can commence tomorrow," Gu Chaoyan exclaimed, leaping down.
"Alright, alright, alright," Ms. Wang responded with sheer delight.
The following day, those eager to showcase their culinary skills gathered. Upon their arrival, they beheld the Yan family's carriage, sparking envy and admiration. Their thoughts already wandered to the day when they too could enter the city, following their family's carriage.
The Tian family had arrived early.
Auntie Lianhua, Tian Jiu's father, and his two robust brothers exuded an air of authority. Everyone treated them with respect, hesitant to provoke them.
The midday banquet was on the verge of commencing.
