Qiu Yan was slightly stunned after hearing this.
Where did he go?
Where else could he go?
Qiu Dafu: "He followed the conscription team and went to the military camp. He left quietly like that."
As he spoke, he took out five taels of silver from his pocket.
"This is the money Brother Zhao is returning to you." Knowing that Qiu Yan was busy all day, Zhao Shan entrusted Qiu Dafu to return the money to Qiu Yan.
"My uncle went to join the army?" Qiu Yanmu took the money again, momentarily incredulous.
Hearing what her second uncle said, she felt extremely depressed.
Qiu Dafu nodded: "Yes, I just came from the village."
He felt a pang of guilt; he should have come back sooner.
Thinking of his eldest brother, he had a lot to say to his fifth brother.
Qiu Yan: "He just left like that." He didn't even say goodbye, he just left.
Before I leave, I should at least see her.
As his eldest niece, she was worried about him, but as his superior, wasn't it somewhat irresponsible of him to do this?
No shopkeeper wants to have an employee like that, who leaves without even saying goodbye.
Although Qiu Yan thought this way, she was more worried about Qiu Dayu's safety.
All she wants now is for him to be safe and sound.
Her uncle was intelligent, but when he encountered a powerful person, he was no match for them.
“He’s always been like this; he does whatever comes to mind without ever consulting anyone.” Qiu Dafu knew his fifth brother quite well.
Seeing that her second uncle's expression remained somber, Qiu Yan knew he was worried about her younger uncle, so she changed the subject.
"Second Uncle, of these ten houses, aside from the ones we're keeping for ourselves, the rest will be officially put up for sale in five days. Second Uncle, what do you think is a suitable price?"
Regarding the sale of the courtyard, Qiu Yan had previously discussed it with Gu Qian, but Gu Qian entrusted the entire matter to Qiu Yan.
Qiu Dafu thought for a moment. He only knew how to build houses and was not very clear about housing prices: "You bought the pharmacy for eight hundred taels of silver. This house is worth at least as much."
"One thousand taels, is that alright?"
Qiu Yan chuckled, shook her head, and said with a smile, "Too little."
She had clearly considered the matter before selling the house.
"With so much money, will anyone buy it?" These days, Qiu Dafu has been worried about one question: whether this house can actually be sold.
"If no one buys it, I'll live in it myself."
"Can you manage living here by yourself?" Qiu Dafu was still somewhat worried, while Qiu Yan was full of confidence.
"Of course we can accommodate everyone. Ah Xu, Ling'er, Xiao Ran, my cousin, my younger cousin... we have a lot of relatives."
After listening, Qiu Dafu thought about it seriously for a moment, as if he were counting heads: "So, there are far from enough houses."
Qiu Yan's gloomy mood was cheered up by her second uncle's serious expression.
She just said it casually; of course, it would be good if it could be sold.
Qiu Dafu was very busy. After talking with Qiu Yan about Qiu Dayu and the house sale, he returned to Huaiyuan that same day.
After her second uncle left, Qiu Yan went to Xingyue Tower and had Lu Jia take over Qiu Dayu's work.
When they went to Wangyou Hall again, Xia Minrui was busy running around, helping Wangyou Hall with its tasks.
Over the next two days, in addition to teaching Xia Minrui medical knowledge, Qiu Yan...
She also took some time to visit Xingyue Tower, Bihu Inn, and Zhang Family Cloth Shop.
Wherever she went, notices were posted on the outside of the storefront.
The intention was to inform the wealthy Baiyang merchant that her house in the south of the city would be officially put up for sale in five days.
The property for sale is located in the first courtyard.
