Chapter 1677: Chapter 1674: Arrival

The auction banquet is set for a month later.

With the smooth running of the workshop, the number of weaving looms has been stored in abundance, and the speed has also increased.

After sending away Tang Dongfeng.

A convoy arrived outside the Chu family residence once again.

The carriages were quite ordinary, without any eye-catching decorations.

Inside the carriage.

Chu Cai looked at the towering gate and sighed, “Is this the residence of my third brother? It’s really worthy of the capital, so grand. The gates and courtyard walls are so high. This yard must be worth a lot. To build such a residence, you’d need at least a hundred craftsmen working for two or three months, and they must be skilled artisans.”

Inside the carriage, Madam Wang was also extremely surprised as she looked at the house outside, “Truly impressive.”

This time, only Chu Zhang didn’t come, as he is engaged to the county magistrate’s family.

He now needs to wait until October to marry the county magistrate’s daughter.

Chu Fu, Chu Qingyu, and Chu Boquan came along.

The three children sat in the carriage at the back. Chu Qingyu looked curiously at the street outside, at the clothes worn by the passing pedestrians, and was somewhat captivated, “What kind of fabric are these fabrics, they’re so beautiful, and the patterns on them too.”

“Sister, I heard that women in the capital don’t casually show their faces.” Chu Bo, still a bit chubby, though perhaps from the long journey he had surprisingly slimmed down a bit, also curiosity lifted part of the curtain to look outside, “It seems the storybooks were just talking nonsense.”

With a snap, Chu Bo was hit on the head. Turning, he saw his second brother and suddenly felt a bit guilty, but he hadn’t yet realized the danger.

“Second brother, why did you hit me? What if you damage my head and make me dumber?”

“Hmph, it wouldn’t matter if you got dumber.” Chu Fu looked at him disapprovingly, “When did you go buy storybooks? I remember the shops in the county wouldn’t dare sell you any storybooks.”

Chu Bo’s eyes widened, realizing he had slipped up. Weakly retreating, he waved his hand and said, “Second brother, I didn’t read any storybooks. You must have misunderstood me.”

“Haha, if you want to explain, go talk to Father.” Chu Fu closed his eyes directly, not wanting to say anything more to him.

Chu Bo instantly wilted, like a cat with its neck seized.

Still a chubby cat.

Over there, someone had already gone to knock on the big door of the Chu family residence.

In no time, the door was opened, opened halfway by the gatekeeper, who looked outside at the numerous carriages and asked, “Who are you looking for?”

“We are the servants from the Second Master’s household, all of us coming from Nanchang County this time.”

“The Second Master is here?” The gatekeeper was very surprised and quickly said, “Please wait a moment, I will go notify the lady and the housekeeper immediately.”

Saying this, he quickly ran inside.

In no time, Steward Luo came quickly, bringing a servant boy out from the main gate.

“Greetings to the Second Master.” Steward Luo greeted Chu Cai with a dignified yet respectful manner.

Chu Cai felt a bit nervous but relaxed instantly upon seeing Steward Luo, confirming he had not come to the wrong place, and smiled warmly, “Ah, Steward Luo, long time no see.”

“Second Master, you’ve had a tiring journey; please come down quickly, the lady is waiting inside the residence. These luggage items, the old servant will arrange for the servants to handle them, you needn’t worry.” Steward Luo said with a smile. After all, having known each other before, even though it had been many years since they last met, the two could be considered old acquaintances and felt quite at ease interacting after relaxing.

Backyard.

Once the message from the gatekeeper was passed over.

Ye Muyu had just sent off Tang Dongfeng and was about to take Nuanbao out for a stroll in the garden.
