While Qu Jing was busy gnawing on a corn cob, Qin Huai took a stroll around the village.
Qin Huai's current range of activity was within a 20-meter radius centered around Qu Jing, which was a decent amount of space. Qu Jing's physical condition was good, but her teeth were that of an average human. Gnawing on a corn cob was quite challenging; even if a tooth chipped, she might not manage to get a few pieces off.
The 20-meter range was enough for Qin Huai to thoroughly visit the village chief's house and the neighbor's house next door.
Overall, the conditions at the village chief's house were quite decent. The house was made of red brick, and inside there was large furniture that immediately revealed the carpenter's usual craftsmanship, a firewood room, a pigsty, and a yard.
In the pigsty were two little piglets, and in the yard, there were seven or eight chickens and two geese, economically far ahead of the neighboring houses.
The neighboring houses were all made of adobe.
