“Wow! Sister, it’s so beautiful here!” Chuner exclaimed excitedly as she ran around the courtyard to inspect its structure after dismounting the tiger.

Mo Xiaoqiang and Madam Xie did not share the same energy, worn out from a month of continuous travel by boat and carriage.

Despite his fatigue, Mo Xiaoqiang felt a bit excited; he had never dreamed that one day he would live in the General’s Mansion. Such an event was previously unthinkable to him.

Mo Xiaoqiang: “My dear, the General’s Mansion is truly extravagant. Even the place where Xuexue will stay is so spacious.”

Madam Xie reached out to pat her own shoulder, her entire body stiff from spending over a month in a carriage: “What do you know? Xuexue is of high status; of course, she must stay in the most luxurious courtyard within the General’s Mansion.”

Perhaps Lady Tang had given instructions early on, as the maids were very diligent. As soon as they sat down, there was hot water to soak their feet and back massages to be had.

Such a high level of treatment.

Madam Xie was so startled that she jumped up. She had spent her life serving others, and to suddenly be served herself was a feeling beyond description, as if she were dreaming. It didn’t seem real at all.

Mo Xiaoqiang, on the other hand, lay back and enjoyed it with a look of utter contentment on his face.

Indeed, when he had silver in the past, he would visit the brothel every now and then to enjoy such services, so he was no stranger to them.

Having been jostled on the road for so long, Xuexue was also tired and went back to her room to rest.

Chuner, that little maid, was brimming with energy, counting the rooms one by one!

“Mom, mom, there are so many rooms here, more than a dozen!” Chuner panted as she ran to report.

Upon hearing this, Mo Xiaoqiang’s eyes widened. He stopped soaking his feet and, with his feet still dripping, slipped them into his boots, mumbling, “Chuner, is it true? Are there really so many rooms? Hurry and take daddy to choose a good one.”

With that, he eagerly stood up and pulled Chuner aside to pick out a room.

A maid sneered dismissively and muttered under her breath: “What a bunch of country bumpkins, acting as if they’ve never seen anything like this.”

Madam Xie heard this and a flicker of discomfort passed across her face, but she said nothing, pretending not to hear.

Xuexue slept until the lanterns were first lit before waking up.

This was the most comfortable sleep she had had in over a month.

As Xuexue stepped out of the room, everything outside was quiet, which she found very strange.

Chuner was usually lively and cheerful, so happy in the morning; Xuexue found it odd that it was now so quiet.

She stepped out of the room to find the courtyard pitch-dark, with not a single lantern lit.

Xuexue went back to her room, found an oil lamp and a wick by a cabinet, and then found flint to light the oil lamp.

Holding the oil lamp in her hand, she went into the main hall of the courtyard and placed the lamp on the table.

As soon as she turned around, she saw Madam Xie and Mo Xiaoqiang sitting in front of the table like puppets, silent as the grave.

“Oh! Mom, dad, you’re both grown-ups and don’t even know to light a lantern. You scared me to death!” Xuexue said, patting her chest with a look of fright on her face.

“Sister, you don’t know, while you were sleeping, someone came to bully us,” Chuner said with a pout, indignantly.

Madam Xie: “Chuner, stop talking nonsense, don’t trouble your sister.”

Chuner: “But it’s true! It’s our first day here, and we’ve already been bullied! It’s not important that Chuner feels wronged, but mom is aggrieved too, and it makes Chuner sad.”
