That day, Gu Qingyao was arranging things when Ji Mingyue came looking for her with a mysterious air. She was filled with envy when she saw Gu Qingyao’s little courtyard.

“Yao Yao, is the entire courtyard yours?”

Gu Qingyao nodded. “That’s right! My grandparents will be staying here in the future, and my parents will be staying here often. So I’m also staying here!”

Ji Mingyue was deeply envious. “My God! It’s so beautiful. You’re like the pampered young ladies in ancient times, who had their own courtyards. Oh, you need a few handmaidens, then the resemblance will be complete. Hahaha!”

Gu Qingyao could not help but laugh. “Forget about handmaidens. The house is so big, and there are so many people living here, all busy with their jobs. We will certainly need to hire a few servants.”

Ji Mingyue smiled. “Of course!”

She cocked her head and looked at the little courtyard. She felt really envious.

The Ji family was fairly well-off, but no more than that.

The Ji family had only begun to prosper a few decades ago, and they did not have much wealth. In the previous era, they had been on par, but now that freedom had returned, their economic powers created a gap between them.

Ji Mingyue lived in a family where everyone squeezed together in a few rooms, and she was filled with envy to see that Gu Qingyao could afford her own compound when she was just a young girl.

Gu Jinhang, who had come with her, saw that Ji Mingyue’s eyes were filled with envy and said, “Do you like it?”

Ji Mingyue turned to look at him. She did not really understand what he was getting at.

“I… I do!”

Gu Jinhang smiled. “Then I’ll buy a house like that in the future. If you marry me, you can live in a little courtyard with me.”

Ji Mingyue was startled, then immediately blushed. She looked at Gu Qingyao and Mo Beihan, who were both laughing, and shot a vicious glare at Gu Jinhang.

“I… I didn’t say I want a courtyard like that. This house is so big, it must be very expensive! And your family already has a house!”

Gu Jinhang was now the Gu family’s successor. Second Uncle Gu was so capable, and this son was practically his heir. The Gu house would certainly go to Gu Jinhang one day. They would never permit him to buy a house and live independently!

Gu Jinhang smiled. “The house belongs to my parents, not to me. Besides, my parents are still young! They don’t need me by their side every day. When I get married, it’s entirely possible for me to have my own place. When my parents grow old, and they need me to take care of them, I’ll move back!

“I’m still young. I should enjoy my own life.”

Ji Mingyue was tempted. She had to admit that that was what she wanted too.

Gu Qingyao looked at Gu Jinhang, then looked at Ji Mingyue. She smiled as she added to her Second Cousin’s argument.

“Second Cousin is right. Everyone is still young, you obviously should have your own house. When people get married, they form a new family. Both the man and the woman have to leave their families to form their own little family unit. When they’re young, they can live by themselves. When their parents need help, they can live together to take care of their parents.

“A traditional courtyard house like this one is very quiet. Second Cousin can buy one as his own little home after marriage.”

“Mingyue, which kind do you like? You can go and choose, and when you find one that you like, you can ask Second Cousin to buy it.”

Ji Mingyue was immediately embarrassed. “No… no need. It’s too expensive!”

Although Gu Jinhang was very rich, as far as Ji Mingyue knew, he was not so rich that he could buy a house.. Traditional courtyard houses were not cheap either.
