Chapter 267 Butler Xiang is getting married today
But at least we have a home, and everyone is very content.
Village Chief Lin watched another family being picked up and left, filled with envy. He looked at the people happily packing their luggage and muttered to Gu Dasheng beside him...
I'm so happy for them!
After being away for so many days, I finally have a home.
I heard that you can also clear land and plant crops yourself. It's only the end of February now, so as long as you work hard and clear the land quickly, you can catch up with the spring planting.
Sigh! I wonder when we'll be able to have a home.
Although Mu Dasheng also looked longingly at the village chief, he calmly comforted him.
"I think Yunlu City is quite nice. Of all the towns we've passed through on our journey, only Yunlu City has been so friendly to us."
You see, people in other towns look down on us, as if we're something dirty, and nobody wants to be near us.
Moreover, Butler Gu said that his family has been arranging things for us these past few days, and once the connections are smoothed out, they will take us to apply for new household registration.
People often say that good things come to those who wait, and some things can't be rushed.
"I...I know these things can't be rushed, but I just can't help it..."
The village chief himself became embarrassed as he spoke.
But before he could finish feeling embarrassed, Mu Dasheng pointed at Gu Xiang, who was walking in from the city gate and seemed to be in a very good mood.
"Dajiang, does Butler Xiang seem to be in a good mood today?"
The village chief looked in the direction Mu Dasheng pointed and saw Gu Xiang, who had come out of the city, get off the carriage at the city gate and walk briskly and cheerfully toward the camp in Shanglin Village.
Village Chief Lin looked at Gu Xiang, who was walking this way, with a puzzled expression.
"Brother Dasheng, Butler Xiang seems to be in a really good mood today, as if he has some great joy to celebrate."
The village chief frowned, seriously wondering what happy event Steward Xiang might have. Suddenly, a brilliant idea struck him, and he turned to look at Mu Dasheng with a delighted expression.
"Brother Dasheng, do you think Butler Xiang is getting married?"
Mu Dasheng paused for a moment, then looked somewhat helplessly at Gu Xiang, who had already walked behind Village Chief Lin.
Gu Xiang overheard the village chief's words.
"Hahaha!"
Gu Xiang burst into laughter, in high spirits.
"Village Chief Lin, I've only been gone for two days and you're already asking me to find a wife?"
At his age, to be secretly talking about someone and then being overheard by the person in question—the village elder blushed and gave an awkward laugh.
"Hehe, Steward Xiang is here. I just noticed you seemed to be in a good mood today, and I thought the Prefect had helped you find a wife."
Previously, everyone called Gu Xiang "Butler Gu," but after Gu Fu appeared, there were two Butler Gus, so now everyone calls Gu Fu "Butler Fu" and Gu Xiang "Butler Xiang."
Gu Xiang laughed heartily after hearing what Village Chief Lin said.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"Village Chief Lin does have something to be happy about today, but it's not getting married."
Mu Dasheng raised an eyebrow, while Village Chief Lin looked at Steward Xiang with anticipation.
Gu Xiang didn't beat around the bush and said directly and frankly,
"Everyone will have a home from now on, in Pingchuan County, which is below Yunlu City. The place we are going to is Chuyun Village in Qingyun Town."
"Izumo Village? What a lovely name!" Shen Yuzhen, who happened to be walking by, exclaimed happily upon hearing the name Izumo Village.
Gu Xiang, in a very good mood, glanced at everyone.
"Not only does it have a nice name, but the environment is also great. It's nestled between the sea and mountains, and as the saying goes, 'those who live by the mountains live off the mountains, and those who live by the water live off the water.'"
"With our proximity to water and mountains, we'll definitely never go hungry."
we?
Mu Dasheng looked at Gu Xiang with a puzzled expression.
"Does Steward Xiang mean you're coming to Chuyun Village with us?"
"That's great! With you all here, we can look out for each other." The village chief jumped up excitedly when he heard that Gu Xiang and his group were going to Chuyun Village with everyone.
Gu Xiang smiled, nodded, and then shook his head.
"We are indeed going to Chuyun Village, but we will not stay in the village. We will stay in the manor opposite Chuyun Village. That manor is the dowry manor left by our old lady to our eldest daughter."
Although the estate was a bit remote, my young lady loved it very much. When she was little, she would often stay there for a while.
The young lady originally planned to stay at the estate to recuperate after returning this time.
When my young lady spoke to the prefect, she directly said that she wanted to settle you all near the estate.
After several days of preparation, the prefect finally got the matter settled, and everyone was accommodated in Chuyun Village, which is opposite the manor.
This village of Chuyun has only about ten households, but the area is very spacious, making it a sparsely populated place.

Gu Xiang hesitated for a moment and glanced at the village chief...
