Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, Mai Duoduo sent Zhou Hai to drive a horse-drawn carriage to send Liu Qing'er and Liu Xiaolan back to Xinnan Town.

  The town's Feng Juren and the militiamen finally breathed a sigh of relief. With the support of the county magistrate, they no longer had to worry about being bullied by those officials from Yunzhou's border areas!

  This year's New Year's Eve in He Garden was more lively than last year, because this year there were five quintuplets, Master Mingze and the top ten masters.

  The five little cuties are all wearing a red festive onesie today. They're so adorable! The top ten masters even fought over who gets to hold them!

  In the evening, the whole family sat down to eat the New Year's Eve dinner. Mai Duo looked at the bowl of vegetarian food in front of Master Ming Ze and said: "Master, don't pretend anymore. The pot of mutton near you is empty, but this bowl of vegetarian food in front of you is intact. Pour it away, there are no outsiders here!"

  The top ten masters looked at Master Mingze and burst out laughing, thinking to themselves: "Master, I didn't think anyone could see through your tricks so clearly!"

  Master Mingze awkwardly stroked his beard: "Then scatter it! Block the dishes for Master!"

  Liang An and Huang Shi have now gotten used to their way of interacting, and for Mai Duo Duo's certain astonishing behavior, the two only have doting tolerance!

  The lively and bustling New Year's Eve has passed, ushering in the highly anticipated first day of the Lunar New Year - the Thousand People Tug-of-War Competition!

  Today, the common people not only have to go to Nanshan Temple to burn incense early in the morning, but also have to go to the county government office to watch the tug-of-war competition organized by the wife of the county magistrate! This is the first large-scale event in the history of Nancheng County!

  In front of the county government office, there was a large open space with several big drums set up. On the ground, a long rope about 50 zhang (a unit of length) was laid out, and in the middle of the rope, a large flag was inserted. The two sides of the flag were marked with two vertical lines, known as the river boundary line. At both ends of the big rope, many small ropes were tied separately.

  One thousand civilian representatives and one thousand soldier representatives stood there with great enthusiasm.

  More and more people came to watch, so they asked Liang Zhijie to use a megaphone to introduce the contestants, rules and prizes.

  When the common people saw ten big fat pigs tied up with ropes on the ground, they all smiled secretly. The county lord's wife was really clever, and everyone was happy to reward her for the New Year.

  As the sound of gongs and drums approached, the tug-of-war competition was about to begin. The representatives of the civilians and soldiers stood at both ends of the large rope, while the outside spectators also took their positions according to their teams!

  Ouyang Qin stood in the middle of the rope and whistled, while Liang Zhijie shouted "Start!" through a miniature loudspeaker.

  Suddenly, the sound of gongs and drums filled the air, and the shouting voices echoed through the sky. The two teams thus began a tug-of-war, with neither side able to gain the upper hand for a long time. Just when the soldiers' team managed to pull ahead by a tiny bit, the civilians' team desperately pulled it back. Back and forth they went, the competition continuing in this heart-pounding manner...
