After a round of feasting, everyone was in high spirits. Not to mention Seventh Aunt, who loved a lively atmosphere the most, even Aunt Zhang, who usually had a troubled mind, seemed to be lifted by the mood and relaxed from her worries.
As a Ghost Walker, she rarely interacted with others; even when invited by villagers or those she had helped, she often sat alone at a table or had the food delivered to her home. This experience of sitting at a lively table was rare for her, but her face flushed as she lifted her glass.
She solemnly toasted Hu Ma and Seventh Aunt, thanking them for saving her life.
Hu Ma laughed and said, "We're family, no need for formalities. Aunt Zhang is a respectable person. Feel free to visit the Manor when you have time, and when trouble arises, lending a hand is essential to getting through."
