After a casual visit to the back garden, Luo Xusheng and Ling Ruonan invited everyone to sit down for lunch.
It was quite late, and both Ouyang Lingyun and Luo Liansheng were a bit embarrassed.
Luo Liansheng's embarrassment stemmed from his inadequate hospitality, as the old mansion was still undergoing repairs and was not in the best condition.
Whereas Ouyang Lingyun's embarrassment was due to their late arrival in Yuezhou, causing everyone to start lunch late.
However, the polite remarks from the two elders helped to relax the atmosphere.
Luo Ziling quickly poured wine for both elders and then filled the glasses for everyone else, offering a toast alongside Luo Liansheng, Luo Xusheng, and Ling Ruonan. While wishing everyone a Happy New Year, he also asked for their understanding for any shortcomings in their hospitality.
During the meal, though, the two old men chatted the most.
