White Jade Village is not far from the Western Capital, and they arrived shortly after setting out. After inquiring the villagers, they quickly found Sister-in-law Wu's home.
It turned out to be the most ordinary farmhouse, appearing somewhat dilapidated. A temporary mourning shed in the courtyard had yet to be dismantled, with the mourning flags gently fluttering in the breeze overhead.
Mr. Yao was a bit surprised to see Jiang Yu arrive with Xu Jing but, considering the relationship between Jiang San and Jiang Yu, he said nothing and walked straight into the farmhouse ahead. Just as he was about to call out, a slender, pale young man suddenly came out, and seeing all the people in the courtyard, he was visibly startled and stammered, "Who... who are you people? Could you be from the government office in the Western Capital?"
As a scholar who had passed the imperial exam, he quickly recognized Mr. Yao and his companions.
