Zheng Fan brought Fanli into the house. This residence was Zheng Fan's temporary home because although the external framework of Lord Pingye's mansion had been completed, the interior decorations like artificial rock mountains and flowing water required more time for refinement. Additionally, places like secret tunnels and basements required significant effort, so Zheng Fan hadn't moved in yet.
The residence is divided into a front and a back house. Originally, Ke lived in the back house, with her bedroom right next to Zheng Fan's. However, after Siniang arrived, Ke had to move to the front house.
Though Ke, having experienced war and displacement, was well aware that Zheng Fan was the man she needed to cling to as her true reliance for the rest of her life, she understood upon her first meeting with Siniang that this woman was not her match.
