On the seventh day of the seventh month, the wind disperses the sound of cicadas, ushering in autumn among myriad trees.
Today, Linjiang County is exceptionally lively. County Magistrate Chen, along with numerous wealthy merchants and esteemed gentry, have come to the City God Temple to observe and worship.
The Pear Garden Theater has erected two stages in total. One is at the northern vegetable market, built on the spacious execution platform, while the other is outside the City God Temple in the south, which is dedicated to the Eight Banner Marshals, perfectly accommodating the citizens from both the north and the south.
Initially, Chen Guangrui thought the theater's charity performance might be lively, but he never expected it to be even more bustling than the Baishui Temple fair in the Jin Sect.
People have flocked here not only from the county but also from the Jinmen Prefecture and other counties.
