Li Mai looked at her older brother.
Yun Chang exchanged a silent glance with her. "Understood. Arrange for them to move to my courtyard."
Li Mai smiled and said, "Thank you, big brother!"
“Lord An, Madam An, Chief Xu, since you came to Qing Shi Town because of me, I can’t very well ask you to stay at an inn. My elder brother’s courtyard is next door, so why don’t you rest there for the night? It’s more comfortable than staying at an inn,” Li Mai said with a smile.
"Alright, then I'll trouble Madam Zhou and Young Master Zhou." An Nanyang cupped his hands in greeting to Li Mai, and then cupped his hands in greeting to Yun Chang.
Xu Changle smiled and thanked Yun Chang, "Thank you, Young Master Li!"
She knew Li Mai's name; she had heard that he was Li Mai's older brother and assumed his surname was Li.
Yun Chang glanced at An Nanyang, then at Xu Changle, and pursed her lips. "My surname is Yun, and I am Xiaomai's sworn brother. Although I would like to have the surname Li, I am not destined for it."
He also wanted to be Xiaomai's older brother, so that she would be closer to him!
"Ahem, I'm sorry, my sister and I didn't know about your relationship with Mrs. Zhou." Xu Changhuan quickly apologized on behalf of her younger sister.
Yun Chang glanced at her, said it was nothing, then stood up and said to Zhou Quan, "I'll go back and arrange for someone to tidy up so they can stay in the east courtyard?"
The west wing of his house was occupied by the guards.
Chu Yan and Zhong Hui both lived with him in the main courtyard.
His main courtyard was larger than Li Mai's, and the west and east wing rooms were also very well-maintained. Chu Yan and Zhong Hui lived in the east and west wing rooms.
The East Wing was originally intended as a guest courtyard, in case Li Mai needed it.
His west courtyard was inhabited by guards and secret agents. Only the guards cooked for themselves in the kitchen, while he ate at Limai's place every day.
His guards did all the work in the mansion; there were no other servants.
Zhou Quan nodded, "Okay, I'll go with my brother to make the arrangements!"
Li Mai nodded. "Okay, you two find an iron cage and protect the white wolf."
Otherwise, she feared that the white wolf would howl in the middle of the night out of unease, frightening the people around it.
Zhou Quan understood, nodded, and followed Yun Chang out.
After Yun Chang left, she asked Zhou Quan, "Is there something wrong with Tianxiang Village?"
Zhou Quan nodded and told him about the history of the Xu family of Tianxiang Village.
Yun Chang fell silent. So that's how it is!
