The room, usually spacious and empty, suddenly flooded with people, making it feel packed. The girls chatted non-stop around Nan Feng: "Feng, there are so many things for sale in the alley outside, it's way more convenient in the city than in the village. You can buy anything you want."
"Feng, how much is the rent here? Pretty expensive, right? But the house is really nice, better than our rural ones."
"The houses here are just average, you haven't seen the massive mansions we passed by. They had stone lions and large lanterns, even doorkeepers."
Of course, the information about the mansions was passed onto them by their local friend, as none of them could read.
Nan Feng imagined their friend surrounded by a group of women firing questions. She thought it was hilarious, but knowing his good nature, he would surely answer them.
