The Wei family does not return to the capital all the year round, and there was originally a three-entry house that was only used by the Wei family to come to the capital for a short time, which was relatively small and dilapidated, and it was not suitable for a large family, nor did it conform to the current identity, so Wei Qiuniang wanted to buy another house for the Wei family.

"I wanted to buy and expand the houses around there, but there were so many people that they might not want to sell. Wei Qiuniang said.

"Mother," Cui Zhiwei said after hearing this, "Then it's better to buy it." I don't know how much it will cost or how much time it will take to expand the yard and renovate it, so it's not cost-effective at all. Isn't my grandfather's family going back to Beijing soon, it must be too late. ”

"Yes, I think the same way, but your father and I have seen each other several times, and none of them have met. Either the location is biased, or the house is dilapidated, or it is small. ”

"Mother, buying a house is very important, in addition to what you said, it also depends on feng shui. Let's not be in a hurry, I'll accompany you to find it slowly in two days. It's really not possible, let my grandfather's family live with us first, and let them move when they find a house. "Buying a house is a big deal, and you can't make a hasty decision.

"This ......" Wei Qiuniang hesitated for a moment, "It's really not good, let your grandfather live in the Zhuangzi outside my city first." "In these years, there is really no one whose mother's family lives in their daughter's house, and it is not good for both families to spread it.

Cui Jin doesn't care, Wei Qiuniang has always been in charge of family affairs. Qi is also a generous and enlightened person, "It's inconvenient to go in and out of the city, let my in-laws live there first, and I'm idle there." ”

"Thank you, mother, I really can't think about living with you anymore. Although Wei Qiuniang thanked the Qi family, she thought that it was best to live in the Qi family's house. After all, it was specially given to his mother-in-law by the emperor, and there were royal guards guarding and reporting to the emperor at any time, so it was inconvenient for even their family to live.

The next few days were very busy. Cui Zhili is only thirteen this year, and he wants to find a college for him to continue studying. Cui Zhiyi is eighteen years old, and he is already the eldest at a considerable age, so he has to find some errands for him to do so that he can say goodbye. He doesn't like to read, so he likes to practice martial arts, and besides, he prefers to do business.

"You won't be able to inherit the title in the future, and if you're just a white person, you won't be able to say a good family thing. After listening to his thoughts, Cui Jin, Wei Qiuniang, and the Qi family didn't quite agree.

But my son really doesn't like to read. ”

"Why don't you go to take a martial arts exam?" Cui Jin proposed.

"It's not impossible to take the martial arts exam, but my son doesn't like to be restrained, he just likes to do business. Over the years, he has been helping to take care of the Cui family's chores in Xuyang, and he has a lot of experience. But those industries belong to the family after all, and he still wants to have his own separate business, and he doesn't want to take advantage of the family. He also wants to rely on his own ability to raise a small family that belongs to him in the future.

"It's really not good, the old body will go and ask the emperor for a favor. "You can't really let your grandson be a white ding, and you will have to bow down at every turn when you see people in the future.

"Mother, you just asked for a spare job for your second uncle, isn't it okay to ask for Zhiyi?" The relationship between the Qi family and Cui Jin's mother and son has already eased over the years, and Cui Jin is reluctant to ask the Qi family to always ask for Suzong, which will make it seem that his son is very incompetent.

"It's not bad this time. Qi Shi smiled, "The old body is not in a hurry to ask for it, and it is not too late to wait for a suitable opportunity." ”

"Grandmother," Cui Zhiwei said, "your idea is indeed right. Don't worry, it's not too late to wait for the second brother to make some achievements for Daxi or the imperial court. ”

Her second uncle has contributed a lot to the supply of grain, grass, soldiers and horses at the border over the years, so it is natural for her grandmother to ask for a half-official position for her second uncle. Now her second brother is only in the capital, and she has not contributed half of her efforts to the country and the court, even if her grandmother asks for it, she can't ask for a good official position.

Favors are used once thin, and they must be used on the blade. Li Ruosu once criticized their family members, saying that they would be rich and noble in the future. She also opened her eyes to check the family, although the deduction from her family was not accurate, but it was definitely not too bad. So she believes that the second brother will definitely have an opportunity for him.

"Then wait for now. Qi nodded, "However, Zhiyi can't stay like this, it's better to help your father take care of the family affairs as before in Xuyang." "Their family has more and more industries over the years, even if Cui Jin has found a gentleman to teach him and help him deal with things over the years, but he is not very good at it after all, and it is very difficult to do. However, his progress is obvious to all, and it has also brought a good start to his family.

"Okay grandmother," Cui Zhiyi bowed down, "Grandchild will help Dad take care of the family chores first." ”

"Good. Qi nodded, "A family can only get better and better if they work together." Each of you has your own strengths, don't be presumptuous, just do your own thing. She never thought that every grandchild could be as knowledgeable as her eldest grandson, she was a native of the country, as long as her children and grandchildren could live a good life.

As for Cui Zhiwei, she can't stay at home at her age, and she has to go to a girls' school.

Hearing the news, Cui Zhiwei almost cried, "Why do I have to go to school too!"

"You learned those bad words before, and you can't get on the stage. Wei Qiuniang said honestly, "We don't expect you to learn anything if you let you go to women's school, it's good to make more handkerchiefs, and you can also have some people to move around after you get married in the future." ”

"Mother, don't think about things for so long, right?" She's only thirteen now, isn't it a little early to mention this?

"Who didn't come here at this time? You're going to the girls' school much later than anyone else. ”

"Oh well. Cui Zhi nodded sadly, "But I can explain first, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, knitting and female red, don't expect me to be better than others, it's good that I can know more or less." ”

"Your mother and I won't do any of this, and I didn't delay marrying a good man like your father. So my mother really didn't expect anything from you. ”

Cui Zhiwei secretly had fun, or nodded solemnly, "That's good." "She's just a pastime, and it's not fun to stay home all day.

"By the way," Qi suddenly remembered something, "The queen asked you when you would come back a few days ago, saying that she missed you and wanted to see you." In the past two days, the old man has handed a fold to the palace, and when the time comes, our ancestors and grandchildren will go to the palace for a visit. ”

"Good grandmother. Cui Zhiwei nodded obediently, "I miss the queen too." It would be better if I could meet the prince's brother, I haven't seen him for many years, and I don't know how his health is now?"
