Shao Yi initially wanted to tell Shen Qinglan about Duan Yunfei having already moved out, but he feared mentioning something inappropriate in front of the Shen Family, so he chose to remain silent for the moment.
What kind of person was Shen Qinglan? As soon as she saw his hesitant expression, she knew he had something to say to her.
She slowed down a bit, noticing that the other members of the Shen Family were walking while looking around, not paying attention to them. She then softly said, "Uncle Shao, is there something you need to tell me?"
Shao Yi, hearing her, hurriedly stepped forward and whispered, "That young master has already moved out."
"Moved out?" Shen Qinglan sighed in relief upon hearing this.
She had been worried about how to explain Duan Yunfei’s residency to the Shen Family, but now she didn’t have to rack her brains to come up with an excuse.
Shao Yi said, "Since the young lady already knows, I’ll be heading back!"
He usually lived in the back quarters, making it convenient to open the door for others.
When it was mealtime, Mrs. Yang would bring food to him. When there was no one around, he would return to the rear wing to eat with Mrs. Yang.
Shen Qinglan nodded. Once Shao Yi turned around, she quickly caught up with the Shen Family.
Shen Qingzhu excitedly said, "Third Sister, this house is so big and beautiful!"
As they entered the inner courtyard, Dong Yao and Shen Shan were also somewhat surprised.
Shen Shan said, "This house is only two hundred taels of silver; Shopkeeper Tang sold it to you cheap!" Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝✶𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖✶𝕟𝕖𝕥
Shen Qinglan nodded, "Hmm!"
Dong Yao, with tears in her eyes, said, "I really didn’t expect that one day, our family could live in such a large house!"
Shen Qingju laughed, "If He Qiutian finds out that our family has such a large house, she will surely be furious."
"Why?" Shen Qinglan asked.
"Of course it’s because of jealousy," Shen Qingju said, "You don’t even know, that girl flaunted her family living in the town. Every time she saw me and cousin, she looked down on us. Once, she even called us village girls."
As she spoke, Shen Qingju took a deep breath and said, "If it weren’t for Grandpa He’s sake, I would have taught her a lesson long ago. She talks as if living in town for a few years makes her a town resident."
Shen Qinglan tugged at the corners of her mouth and said no more.
"Oh my, the master, madam, and all the young masters and ladies have come!"
Mrs. Yang hurriedly came up to call out.
Shen Qinglan introduced to Shen Shan and Dong Yao, "This is Aunt Yang, she is Uncle Shao’s wife."
Upon hearing this, Dong Yao hurriedly said, "So it’s Mrs. Shao!"
"I don’t deserve such a title!" Mrs. Yang took a step back and said, "If the master and madam don’t mind, you can call me Du Juan. The young lady and two young masters can call me Aunt Yang just like the young lady does."
Shen Qinglan had only learned today that Uncle Shao’s name was Shao Yi and Aunt Yang’s name was Yang Dujuan.
The three members of the Shen family obediently called out once.
"Hey~ Is everyone hungry?"
Mrs. Yang said, "Lunch will be ready soon, you all can sit for a while!"
Since the main house had not been tidied up yet, and the East Wing where Duan Yunfei had stayed might still have lingering smells of herbal medicine, Shen Qinglan led everyone to the West Wing.
"These tables and chairs look quite nice, probably cost a lot when bought?" Shen Shan asked.
Shen Qinglan said, "No cost, these were originally here, given by Shopkeeper Tang."
"Your shopkeeper is really nice!" Shen Qingzhu asked, "Can I work at your place?"
Shen Shan also felt that Shopkeeper Tang was truly commendable.
Shen Qinglan said, "Mom and Dad can stay in the main house tonight. The beds there are new, which I recently bought, and after some tidying up, you can settle in."
"Second Brother and Qingping can stay in the East and West side rooms. There are many rooms, you two can stay together if you want."
After speaking, Shen Qinglan turned to Shen Qingju and said, "Eldest Sister, you stay here, I will stay in the East Wing."
