The rain in Pingjiang City had stopped for a while, and the sun peeked through. The ground showed little sign of rain. By the time Tang Wan and Jiang Jinsang got home, Zhang Liyun and Tang Mo had already arrived and were sitting in the front hall talking with the old man.

“Xiaowu, you’re here. How’s your health?” The old man quickly stood up.

“Nothing much.”

“Your things are all moved in; they’re in the East Courtyard. Don’t stay here, go and get some rest. Wanwan, take him to his room and let him have a good rest. Come back later.”

“Then I’ll go rest first.” Jiang Jinsang wasn’t foolish; the old man was obviously intentionally sending him away.

Tang Wan led him into her own courtyard. The round stone-carved arch gate was adorned with greenery, and in the middle of the courtyard was a large jar with some lotus plants, though they had withered in the onset of autumn.

Three rooms faced north and south, with two bedrooms both facing south, offering excellent lighting.

Which meant…

Their bedrooms were right next to each other.

“I live next door. If you need anything, you can find me anytime. The South House is the study and where I work. If you feel bored, feel free to sit there…”

He had just moved his things over, so he needed time to organize. Tang Wan led him to his room and briefly introduced the space before heading directly to the front hall.

Zhang Liyun and her daughter came mainly because of the incident yesterday with Tang Mo’s classmate stealing something.

“…It’s all this girl’s fault. She’s young and can’t judge people well, making some bad friends,” Zhang Liyun criticized her daughter without a hint of hesitation.

“I’ve already stopped her allowance for a while to teach her a lesson.”

“In today’s society, people’s hearts have changed. If you dare bring those unruly people home again, you’ll see what happens.”
