The next day, everyone from the main branch of the Chen family was home. According to their usual custom, Xu Suying would have Chen Song running ragged as the couple prepared a good meal for their sons. They had to soothe their poor stomachs, which had been miserably tormented by the food at the academy.
But not this time. Early in the morning, the whole family was heading into the county seat.
And why were they going to the county seat?
To buy a house!
That's right—the house that was selling for one hundred taels, the one belonging to the old couple.
Speaking of which, we have to mention what Chen Song accomplished the day before yesterday.
The day before yesterday, the treasure chest unearthed on Xiaoao Mountain was transported out of Qingshui County by a thousand elite soldiers.
Also on that day, Chen Song was appointed County Magistrate's Assistant and took up his post immediately.
