Upon hearing Chen Erniu's determination, Xu Xiuxiu knew his mind was made up, and she didn't try to persuade him further, but her heart inexplicably filled with worry.
After the two arrived home, Xu Xiuxiu told her about the discussion she had with Fang Qinglan today.
When He Hongjuan and Li Lin learned that Fang Qinglan was willing to provide a large courtyard for free, they both seemed very happy.
This meant that a considerable amount of rent could be saved.
Although the rent in the county town wasn't high, one must not forget that a large courtyard would amass a significant annual rent!
At this moment, He Hongjuan suddenly noticed the worried expression in Xu Xiuxiu and thus asked her.
"Xu sister, what's wrong with you? Do you have some troubling matters?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Xiuxiu forced a smile, "No, what troubling matter could there be? The problem with Branch Point has been resolved; I should be happy, how could I be troubled?"
