Chapter 1027: Villagers
Editor: Henyee Translations
However, just as they finished speaking, there was a knock on the courtyard door.
Feng Daneng, who had just been ntioned, walked in with an ashad expression and said to Chen Liang, “Village Chief, I’m sorry.”
Chen Liang was stunned. “What’s wrong?”
“The large bunks are all gone.” He asked many inns, but they all said that there were no more rooms.
Not only were there no more large bunks, but there were also no more upper rooms or ordinary rooms.
Chen Liang was surprised. “There’s no room in such a huge prefectural city?” This was not the ti of famine. Why…
...
Gu Yundong had thought of it just now, but before she could say anything, Feng Daneng returned.
Looking at the anxious expressions of Chen Liang and the others, she said, “The prefectural city is currently doing cowpox vaccination, so many commoners ca after hearing the news. Not only are there no more large bunks, but I’m afraid many of the courtyards that can be rented out are also gone.”
This was inevitable. There were many county cities under the Xuanhe Prefecture. Those who heard the news would definitely rush to the prefectural city to verify if the news was true.
In particular, there were so wealthy families with many servants and guards. Most of these people lived in large bunks.
Chen Liang and the others arrived a little late, so there were naturally no rooms.
“Then what should we do? Why don’t we squeeze in dilapidated temples for the night?” Soone suggested.
There were also people who glanced at the Gu family’s small courtyard, but they were soon disappointed. This place was too small, and there were so many people in the Gu family. It was better not to think about it.
They were all from Yongfu Village and had a good relationship with the Gu family. Gu Yundong would definitely not let them stay in a dilapidated temple. That would be too deaning.
“Uncle Chen, Brother Shao and I have a courtyard at the back of our shops. There are still a few empty rooms now. If you don’t mind, you can squeeze in first.”
There were originally three rooms in the backyard of Gu’s. Zheng Gang was the shopkeeper and stayed in one. He had also prepared a room for Zhuangzi previously, but he, Jiang Bao, and the others rented a small courtyard outside. They only stayed for the night occasionally when they were on duty, so there were only simple bedding.
The other one was prepared for Chen Jinbao and the others. It was relatively large.
The backyard of Shao Qingyuan’s pharmacy was bigger. Now, Ah Zhu and the others were living there. There were also two empty rooms. There were four rooms, so there was no problem with nine people living there.
Chen Liang still felt a little apologetic. “Isn’t this too troubleso?”
“We’re from the sa village. We should help each other. Uncle Chen, you’ve helped a lot in the past. These are all small matters.”
The matter was settled. Chen Jinbao knew the location of the shop and Gu Yundong let him bring it over.
This was the first ti they had seen Gu Yundong’s shop in the prefectural city. They looked at Gu’s, which was much bigger than the county city shop, and their eyes flashed with surprise.
In the end, it was decided that the three won would stay in the empty room at Gu’s. The three of them would share a room. Chen Jinbao and Chen Liang stayed in the room that Zhuangzi occasionally stayed in.
The remaining four n took a few more steps to Shao Qingyuan’s dicine shop.
This way, it was quite spacious.
At least, it was much more comfortable than large bunks in the inn.
Chen Liang was still a little emotional. “When the Gu family’s girl first brought her mother and younger siblings to Yongfu Village, I thought that their family would probably have a difficult ti without an adult man. I didn’t expect that their family would have the best life in the entire village.”
