In the blink of an eye, two days passed and the Mid-Autumn Festival arrived.
The village began to stir with excitement, as each family prepared for the festival and the burning of paper offerings.
The Wang family went all out by inviting a drama troupe over for entertainment; by the morning, the stage was already set up in Old Wang's courtyard.
Performers donned in colorful costumes and painted faces appeared at the Wang family's place, drawing the village folks over to watch the spectacle.
The paper burning was different from the Qingming Festival; the living didn't need to go to the graveyard, they only needed to prepare incense, paper, and candles at home. Being able to invite a drama troupe like the Wang family was a matter of great prestige.
Unfortunately, there were few wealthy families in the village but many poor ones.
