Chapter 90: Chapter 90: Moving to a New Home

Jiang Feng invited Han Dong inside.

Han Dong suddenly came to find him.

He was quite surprised.

Chu Yuyan, who was in the alley, was stunned by the scene.

Jiang Feng turned her away but invited someone else in.

Wasn’t his home supposed to be inconvenient?

Why was it inconvenient for her but convenient for others? 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

At that moment, Chu Yuyan really wanted to ask for an explanation.

But she ultimately resisted the urge, leaving Chaoyang Alley with a very upset mood. At this point, she not only thought Jiang Feng was ungrateful but also felt he was arrogant.

If her suitors knew that she was snubbed by Jiang Feng, they might just tear him to pieces.

"Sister Dong, why didn’t you inform me in advance that you’d come here for a drink with me?"

It was summer.

The bright moon hung high.

Having a drink in the courtyard was just perfect.

Jiang Feng prepared a plate of peanuts and a dish of his homemade pickles and sat in the courtyard with Han Dong.

"Why didn’t you let Chu Yuyan in?"

Han Dong observed the courtyard and Jiang Feng’s room, noticing no signs of guests, and couldn’t help but ask curiously.

"She just came over to say thanks and left."

Jiang Feng casually replied.

Han Dong smiled without saying anything.

Chu Yuyan, as the courtesan of the Sun and Moon Building, personally came to Chaoyang Alley. It couldn’t be so simple as just saying thank you, especially since her expression wasn’t good when they brushed past each other earlier.

Han Dong was sure.

Jiang Feng turned Chu Yuyan away.

"Sister Dong, let’s have a drink."

Jiang Feng filled Han Dong’s drink.

Just as they were about to fill up, Jiang Feng felt something was off. Someone was approaching, watching them.

The opponent’s strength was high.

It was a Second-Grade Martial Artist.

"Xiao Ran!"

Jiang Feng thought to himself.

The person had followed Han Dong here.

After thinking it through, it could only be Xiao Ran.

If it were an enemy,

they would have acted as soon as Han Dong entered Chaoyang Lane.

"What’s wrong with Chu Yuyan?"

Han Dong picked up the glass, asking.

Her curiosity eventually got the better of her.

"Miss Chu is perfect in every way."

Jiang Feng sincerely evaluated.

If not for the potential trouble, Jiang Feng would have wanted to spend a beautiful night with Chu Yuyan.

"Then I’ll go call her back."

Han Dong quickly stood up.

"Sister Dong!"

Jiang Feng was startled and quickly grabbed Han Dong’s hand.

In the distance, a presence, empowered by Qi and Blood, trembled slightly.

Jiang Feng sensed something was wrong and quickly let go, realizing that although Han Dong didn’t have many followers, she did have one who was a Second-Grade Powerhouse and also the Heir of Prince Zhenbei.

"Who?"

Han Dong caught the movement.

She quickly picked up a pair of chopsticks from the table and shot them towards the northwest corner.

Since a master had ambushed her at the prison gate, Han Dong had increased her vigilance.

"Dong’Er, it’s me."

Xiao Ran hid behind the eaves, dodging the flying chopsticks. His figure moved, leaping into Jiang Feng’s courtyard.

He crossed his arms behind his back.

He glanced around Jiang Feng’s courtyard and room.

It was very simple here, with only one lantern hanging in the courtyard and basic furniture inside the room, no different than a commoner.

"Greetings to the Little Prince!"

Jiang Feng stood up and saluted.

"Please have a seat!"

He offered his seat to Xiao Ran.

"Dong’Er, if you want to drink, you can come find me. Why come to such a place to drink?"

Xiao Ran ignored Jiang Feng.

He felt that Han Dong’s attitude towards Jiang Feng was better than towards him, and this made him somewhat unbalanced.

"Are you following me?"

Han Dong’s face turned ugly.

"I’m worried about your safety."

Xiao Ran said.

"I don’t need your concern."

Han Dong’s figure moved swiftly, leaving Jiang Feng’s courtyard and flying towards the alley exit.

"Dong’Er!"

Xiao Ran hurriedly followed.

He stomped on a clay brick on Jiang Feng’s courtyard wall, leaving a huge gap, and chased after Han Dong, quickly disappearing from Jiang Feng’s sight.

Jiang Feng looked at the gap.

The entire courtyard seemed to have an extra door.

"Sigh! Sycophants are unreasonable."

He shook his head helplessly.

"Looks like it’ll be hard to live here any longer."

Jiang Feng decided to move house.

Firstly, this place was indeed a bit too simple.

There wasn’t even a private toilet. Each time he needed to go, he had to use the one in the middle of the alley.

Secondly, Chu Yuyan and Xiao Ran arrived one after the other.

There’s no telling if the next occurrence would be a nightmare.

Especially with Chu Yuyan.

If her suitors came rushing in, each taking a spit, they might drown Jiang Feng directly.

As for Xiao Ran,

Jiang Feng thought the gap in the courtyard wall was Xiao Ran’s warning. As long as he kept a distance from Han Dong, Xiao Ran wouldn’t act against him.

So in the following days,

Jiang Feng took a leave of absence.

He went to the nearby alleys to look for a good courtyard and finally found a siheyuan in Uncle Huo’s Willow Alley.

It had an independent latrine.

With a complete drainage system, it wouldn’t flood the courtyard during rain.

In the kitchen, there were three earthen stoves.

He could set up a large table.

After cooking, he could enjoy some drinks; it was very comfortable.

Except for the loose tiles on the roof, broken window paper, and several areas needing repairs, Jiang Feng liked the small courtyard more and more. It was much better than his previous clay courtyard.

He spent ten taels of silver to get the courtyard.

And spent a bit over one tael of silver to hire two workers to repair the courtyard.

On the third day, he moved from Chaoyang Lane to Willow Alley.

On the day of the move, Jiang Feng kept it very simple.

He only invited Uncle Huo.

He went to the market and bought three pounds of braised pork head, a pound of peanuts, half a pound of dried radish, and five jugs of yellow rice wine to entertain Uncle Huo.

It turned out Uncle Huo brought his whole family.

They gifted Jiang Feng a set of furniture.

It was three stools woven from vines by Uncle Huo’s wife.

Little Huowa cried in the courtyard.

Jiang Feng went out again to buy some candied haws and three pounds of tofu, brought out his homemade pickles, and with Uncle Huo’s family, gathered around the fire in the hot summer, eating hotpot with pickled vegetables and white tofu.

And that three pounds of braised pork head was already half-eaten by Uncle Huo’s eldest and second children when Jiang Feng went out to buy tofu. Jiang Feng poured the remaining meat into the pot, and everyone dipped it to eat.

Since they were in the same alley,

after eating and drinking, Uncle Huo asked his wife to take the kids home first. He then wandered around Jiang Feng’s courtyard and, under the influence of alcohol, said, "Xiao Jiang, your Kitchen God’s spot is misplaced. Let me move it."

"Why did you move it outside the kitchen?"

Jiang Feng looked troubled.

Watching Uncle Huo run around the courtyard with the Kitchen God.

Chaoyang Alley.

Chu Yuyan was still harboring resentment about being turned away by Jiang Feng.

Finally, she couldn’t hold it in any longer.

Today, she personally brought her maid Ah Bi over again.

She wanted to see how Jiang Feng would block her out tonight.

"Miss, there’s no one inside."

Ah Bi knocked on the door for a long time.

Without seeing Jiang Feng come out.

Frustrated, she kicked the courtyard door open and went inside to take a look.

As Chu Yuyan’s close maid, she knew some martial arts and had good eyesight. She looked carefully and found that not only were there no people, but even pots and pans were gone.

So she shouted, "Miss, he moved away."
