Jiang Sanlang knocked on the wooden gate. "Uncle."

Jiang Sanlang stepped into the yard and asked, "Uncle, has your place been attacked by bandits?"

"Ah? No." Grandpa Jiang gestured for Jiang Sanlang to come inside. "I've heard about the bandits though. Were you attacked?"

Jiang Sanlang nodded, paused, and said, "Uncle, we have just escaped the bandits and would like to stay here temporarily if it doesn't inconvenience you too much."

Grandpa Jiang snorted remarking, "What inconvenience would it mean? You are my nephew! Stay as long as you need to. Now let's get your cousin to clear some rooms out for you."
