Bab 472: Chapter 253: A Leaf Blinds the Eye_1

Because of the bonds with Ming Wa and Jingjing, Cheng Yue's thoughts were no longer entirely focused on Qian Yixiu. On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Qian Yixiu finally went with Qian Yeejin to Xishan County Town to see the lanterns, having previously agreed with Cheng Yue that she would stay there and play for three days. During the day, she spent time playing at the Zhang family's place, Qian Manchuan's house, and Qianxiang House, and spent the nights at her own house in the county town.

The Qian's third wife had long bought a three-section residence in the county town, not far from the Zhang family. Back when Qian Yixiu was "singing for a living," she had passed by this place. At that time, she and the young maiden Qian Manxia envied the people who lived there. Therefore, when Qian Sangui proposed buying a large residence in the county town, Qian Yixiu chose this place without hesitation.
