Every year, the New Year is approaching, which is the busiest time for the Shen family. The Shen family has many relatives and friends, and they are intertwined. Those who are close may be across the street, while those who are far away may be several cities apart. At this time of year, Father Shen would post a message, inviting relatives and friends from the clan to visit his home and spend the New Year together.
One after another, more and more guests came to the big house. People with families, alone, poor, rich, prominent, and withered. All kinds of people may come to the garden. This is the most lively time of the year for the Shen family. Everyone in the Shen family is busy. Young and old, each has its own division of labor. Those who prepare gifts, decorate the house and courtyard, hang lanterns, put up curtains, wear wedding coins, and prepare for the banquet early.
He sent people to the countryside to collect goods, such as dried fungi, fruits, wild poultry, finely ground white flour, etc. The small door in the backyard was full of people coming and going all day long, delivering firewood, delivering fresh fish, carrying Those who came with burdens, those who carried baskets on their backs... they were delivered in a hurry, they handed over the goods and recorded the accounts, received the money, and got the reward wearing a red string, and left happily.

One look at this formation and one knew that Mr. Ambrose planned to hand over this family business to his eldest son.
