In Ping'an Square east of Qingshan County Town, within a modest small courtyard.
The courtyard was compact but complete, equipped with a well, cooking stove, vegetable patch, and a pigsty.
Early in the morning, old Liu lay in his rocking chair, lazily staring at the sun shrouded in fog that looked just like a fluorescent light.
"Old age, it's ultimately about getting old. But bustling about for half a month, it's as tiring as if it could cost me my life. I'm getting less and less energetic," he couldn't help but squint his eyes.
"Finally settled down."
"Once the fog clears, I'll go find the matchmaker, Zhang."
The dreadful foggy day still couldn't dampen his good mood.
"To find a concubine to warm my bed. That would be enough satisfaction for this lifetime."
"Also, I need to go ask around to see if any family has children they can't afford to keep. They can't be too old, otherwise, after I raise them, they'll still belong to someone else."
