The courtyard was bustling with noise and excitement. Some of the younger generation had returned to the village, and the elders liked to pull them aside to ask all sorts of questions.
"You're not getting any younger. Have you found a girlfriend yet?"
"At your age and not married? You must have saved up quite a bit of money, right?"
"You always say you have no time. Are you making big money?"
The younger ones found their drinks turning bitter upon hearing such queries. Why did these elders have to be blessed with such mouths!
Everyone was waiting for the feast to begin.
