The door pushed open, and the aroma of an old-fashioned courtyard wafted toward her.

Inside was indeed a courtyard, and it was not small.

The house was arranged in a single line, half of it a small building.

Chiang Xiao sensed something amiss and immediately asked, "But what? Is there a problem with the house?"
