The modern Dongzhi festival varies every year, but in Great Chu, Dongzhi has always been on the ninth day of the eleventh month since ancient times. Nine is the extreme number, which people of Great Chu are particularly fond of, and they love it deeply.
On the eighth, Third Grandpa, Third Grandma, and everyone from the Qi Family stayed in the inn, getting ready for the grand opening the next day.
On the ninth, while it was still dark, several families got up.
Mrs. Cui and Gu Jinxiu had taken out their new clothes to wear today, so everyone could dress as soon as they got up.
Gu Dashan did not go to the workshop today. He had already entrusted Mu Tong yesterday, and Mu Tong would help with the tofu workshop and the spice workshop's shipments.
After he got up, he went to check on the mules in the backyard shed. After feeding the mules fresh fodder, he went to the kitchen to help Mrs. Cui make breakfast.
