Wu Yuan was a driver who often traveled long distances. Being a daring man, he frequently exploited his position to transport goods between the south and the north, earning a profit from the price differences.
The side income he earned in a single year exceeded his official salary.
The Wu family was wealthy and had spared no expense when building their house. Not only were the main rooms constructed with blue bricks and sturdy tiles, but even the side wings, the pigsty, the chicken coop, and the courtyard walls were built of blue brick. If it weren't for the village rumors that the house was unlucky and possessed poor feng shui—leading to the deaths of everyone in the Wu family except for the original owner—Father and Mother Tang would have moved in long ago.
