The Thoughts of Each Family

Chu Xueqin thought of Chu Xing's admiration for Chu Heng. He replied," Alright. I'll buy some for Third Brother later."

The three of them had just exchanged a few words when Madam Qian came over with a money bag.

She stuffed the purse into Chu Xueqin's hands. "There's one tael of silver and a hundred copper coins in here. If it's not enough, you can come back and get more from me. Go now."

"Alright." Chu Xueqin did not waste any time. He went back to his room and took some money before leaving.

He wore a straw hat on his head and walked straight to the mountain.

There was a small river in front of the mountain. The river was not deep in summer. He did not take off his shoes and wade across the river like those young men. Instead, he went around the mountain.

From afar, he could see that at the location of Chu Heng's mountain, many men were distributing hoes and working at the construction site.
