Sister Chunxiang was born in the Hou Mansion but married an outsider. When she got married, the Hou Mansion was generous enough to release her contract of selling oneself. Because of her, her whole family lived in the back alley of the Hou Mansion, ensuring they had support and didn't have to worry about being exploited or beaten by government officers.

No matter how arrogant the government officers were, they wouldn't dare to cause trouble on the Hou Mansion's territory.

Sister Chunxiang's husband was a martial artist working at a security bureau. Recently, he had gone out of town with a shipment and hadn't returned yet. Their house had the same layout as the Chen family's, but with an extra wing room and an annex, which they could rent out to supplement their household income.

Previously, they mostly rented to small and medium merchants coming to the capital, but this was the first time they rented to a scholar, which was quite unusual. Sister Chunxiang, known for her loud voice, even spoke in a softer tone with a bit of a lisp, which was truly peculiar.
