Chapter 333: Chapter 333 Moving Out

Having heard that Wufu had actively sought help, Ah Jiu didn’t hesitate to have someone accompany Liu Jin to find an intermediary, and they quickly found a small residence with two courtyards. The place wasn’t large and the asking price wasn’t high either, but it was enough for Wufu’s family to live in.

After the transfer documents were signed, there were people arranged to clean the house. Liu Jin kowtowed several times to Ah Jiu, and then called for a carriage to go back to Wozi Village to move. Joining them were Xiao Li and two or three guards.

In Ah Jiu’s words, if you’re going to help, help all the way. He brought a few people to help tidy up, so they could quickly settle down in the county town.

A procession with several carriages grandly entered Wozi Village, attracting the gaze of many villagers.

Which of the nobility has arrived?

Watching the carriages head up to the small house on the mountain, everyone was abuzz with speculation. Could it be that Zhou Yingmei’s man had returned, ready to take her and her daughter to enjoy the good life?

This news spread, and people ran over to see the commotion, mindful that Zhou Yingmei and her mother had been alone for over a decade now. This was the first time they had seen such a spectacle of visitors.

Madam Zhou was still very weak, and Wufu didn’t want to burden her with worry. Watching Liu Jin and the others return, he quickly arranged a carriage for Madam Zhou, settled her in it with Hongyu attending to her, and slowly made their way to the residence in the county, to avoid discomfort from rushing on the road.

Madam Zhou, supporting herself on the carriage door, looked tearfully at the house, lips pressed tightly together. This was where she had lived for more than ten years, and now she was leaving.

Father, your daughter is leaving.

Madam Zhou’s tears fell like pearls, streaming down until Hongyu finally managed to console her, and she got on the carriage.

She was still wrapped in a white cloth on her head. When someone saw it and bravely stepped forward to ask what was going on and where they were going.

Madam Zhou didn’t respond to any of it.

As the carriage left, Wufu exhaled deeply, glanced at the onlookers, and instructed Liu Jin, "Make sure everything is packed up properly, we’re moving out now."

"Yes."

So they were moving, huh? Where to, I wonder!

Among those who came to gawk were people from the village head’s and Zhang family’s households. Hearing this, they immediately sought Wufu to inquire why she was moving so suddenly and what would become of the home site in the eastern part of the village?

"I also meant to talk to you about this, village head. We don’t want that land anymore, so we won’t be building on it. We’ll just give it to the Zhang family," said Wufu. The silver was spent, but since they didn’t need the land anymore, giving it to the Zhang family compensated for their help in searching for timber and such these past days.

Zhang Facai was stunned, "Not, not building anymore?"

"That’s right. We are moving." Wufu said, "The land is yours now, as compensation."

"This..." Zhang Facai rubbed his hands, looking toward the village head.

It was certainly good for him to have it, after all, it was a sizable piece of land, but wasn’t she at a loss?

"Are you really sure?" asked the village head, also looking at Wufu.

Wufu nodded, "The timber and other materials you prepared, I don’t need anymore. Consider it compensation for your trouble and losses."

Zhang Facai was an honest man. He scratched his head and said, "There isn’t much loss, it can be returned, or it can be kept..."

After all, the timber and such wouldn’t rot any time soon. If she no longer needed it, it could be kept or sold to someone else.

The pity was not earning the labor fee and such, but if there was a piece of land in compensation, it was practically a windfall.

"Then that’s settled!" Wufu smiled generously.

Watching the comings and goings of people moving items, the village head couldn’t help asking, "This is all so sudden. You all, where are you moving to? Not coming back?"

"For now, we’re moving to the county. In the future, we’ll see!" said Wufu casually.

The village head sighed softly, uttered a few wishes for their well-being, and didn’t say more.
