Chapter 247 A Lively County Town

  Chu Ziluo was covering her mouth to hide the smile on her face. She had known for a long time that her father was the most gentle when she saw her mother, and it was over when her brother interrupted.

   This episode passed quickly.

   "Third Brother, we're here."

   Chu Lin shouted outside.

  Lu Chuan, who was driving the car in front, jumped down first. Chu Heng lifted the curtain and saw that it was the back door of Chu Lin's shop in the county.

  When Chu Lin bought the yard, he thought it was inconvenient to separate the shop from the yard, but now he took advantage of it. The shop was rented out to others, and the yard could be rented out separately.

  However, some time ago, the merchant who rented the yard left, and now he can rest.

  The door of the backyard has been opened, because there are many people on the street, and the three families did not waste time, so Mrs. Zhang entered the yard and led the way.

  Ye Muyu is here for the first time.

  At first, she thought that the yard would not be too big, but when she entered, she found that it looked small, but it had all internal organs.

  The courtyard with two entrances is paved with boulders in the middle of the front, and the two sides are soil. Maybe it is still a little wet because of the rain.

  There are wing rooms on both sides. Although they are a bit old, they are kept very clean, but maybe because they are close to the river, they seem a little damp.

  After entering the inner hall, it is the main room.

   There are four back halls at the back. A well is drilled in the yard of the back hall. It is very convenient to drink water without going to the public well.

  The wing rooms on both sides were packed up to live in.

   One of the back halls was used as a woodshed.

   There are a total of six rooms, and now five rooms can accommodate people. Although it is a little narrow, it is already very good to be able to buy a house in the county.

   Wait until the dishes and gifts are put down.

  Mule carts and so on can be put in the temporary firewood shed.

   "Okay, hurry up and go with the stools, girls, bring your own competition tools, and let's go to Beida Street."

  For this competition, every girl needs to bring her own needlework, cloth, kitchen utensils, and teacups.

   Today was a competition of tea art, so Chu Ziluo, Chu Qingxiang, and Erfang's Chu Qingyu held their own teacups and put them in cloth bags, not daring to touch them in the slightest.

  Chu Ziluo hugged the teacup and followed Ye Muyu.

   Soon, a group of people headed for Beidajie.

  There are more people on the street.

  When I arrived at the Beidajie Yamen, there were already quite a few stools in the huge venue.

   Mrs. Zhang stood on tiptoe and looked forward: "Oh, there are too many people here. We would have come earlier if we knew about it."

   "It's nothing, the county magistrate has regulations. In the first few rows, the family members of the girls who can only compete will send an elder to sit there." Chu Heng said.

   "We can just watch outside." Chu Liu looked at so many people, and he was less interested in watching the excitement.

  However, it seems that the people are in order, and there are also county government officials guarding the surrounding area.

   It's pretty safe.

  Besides, the surrounding restaurants are already full, and those rich people are basically watching in the restaurants, and will not come down and squeeze together with the common people.

  Ye Muyu looked at the venue of the competition, and saw that although the people wanted to watch the fun, but they didn't dare to squeeze on the stage, she felt relieved.

  But I still couldn't help asking: "The girls went up to compete, how did they come down?"

   When the competition really starts, I'm afraid there will be more people, crowded together, and it is very easy to get salty hands. At that time, the reputation will be directly hindered.

  Chu Heng pointed to the house next to the place over there and said: "That is the house of a side branch of the Xie family. Although the relationship between the head of the Xie family and the county magistrate is not far or close, it does not mean that others do not want to befriend the county magistrate."
