Chu Mu glanced around his house and, without hesitation, strode forward to open the courtyard gate.
Inspectors rushed through the streets, and there were plenty of onlookers craning their necks to see the commotion. Chu Mu looked toward the source of the noise. Just as he'd thought, it was happening near his house.
It was very close, in fact—just two doors down. If Chu Mu remembered correctly, the owner of that house was an Old Child Scholar.
Though the Old Child Scholar was advanced in years, his ambition for scholarly honor hadn't faded in the slightest. He could often be seen studying diligently at the Chang Mansion's private school.
Of course, what left the deepest impression on Chu Mu wasn't the Old Child Scholar himself, but his three daughters.
Strictly speaking, it was only after seeing the Old Child Scholar's three daughters that Chu Mu even learned who the old man was.
