Qiu Ruhai couldn't help but smile when she saw her mother like this, Qiu Ruhai became more and more strange, and asked her sister with her eyes.

Qiu Ruyi's phoenix eyes were slightly raised, and Qiu Ruhai teased: "You are really a nerd, don't you know what day it is?"

Qiu Ruhai was puzzled, and after thinking about it for a long time, he still couldn't think of a reason, so he had to soften his tone and said: "Good sister, don't play dumb riddles anymore, my brother's mind is not as smart as you, so you can tell my brother clearly." ”

When Qiu Ruyi heard this, he put his hand on his chin quite proudly and made a twist shape, shook his head and said, "Sure enough, the son can be taught!"

When Yu Shi saw it, he scolded his daughter and said: "Stand up and speak honestly, it seems that you really have to let Mama Su teach you some rules, otherwise your father will come back and complain that your mother is too indulgent to you." ”

When Qiu Ruhai heard this, he couldn't help but shout: "It turns out that another ten days have passed, and it is time for my father to rest, how can time pass so quickly." ”

Qiu Ruhai's words caused Yu Shi to shake his head and frown, but Qiu Ruyi hid his mouth and snickered: "The second brother is really unfilial, how can anyone not be happy that his father will go home to reunite and share his family? I am not afraid of my father coming back." If the mother is worried that the father will come back and find fault with her daughter, and the daughter can't afford to provoke her, can't she still hide? However, the second brother can't hide, only for the sake of training, so I hope that the eldest brother will not come back, otherwise the two of them can say that the second brother has a cocoon in his ears. ”

Qiu Ruhai immediately grimaced and lowered his head, and when Yu saw it, he comforted: "You learned to manage the inside and outside with the outside housekeeper, and your father nodded and agreed, and he will never talk about you for not liking to read." ”

Qiu Ruhai thought about it and felt that it made sense, and heard his mother say that the eldest brother didn't go home with his father this time, and it was a blessing to have one less person to talk in his ear, so he settled down.

It turns out that since the end of the war, under the wise governance of the first emperor and the new emperor, the world has become more and more prosperous, and the capital is even more prosperous, and it is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, the powerful gathered, and the house is every inch of land.

Although the DPRK and China provided official quarters for officials, they were relatively small, and most of them had wives and children, so they were crowded together, which was a little inconvenient.

Although many of them rented houses in the capital, there were still a considerable number of people who went to the suburbs of the capital to rent or buy a house for their families to live in in order to save living expenses.

Fortunately, the first emperor was a benevolent king, and he was very aware of the people's feelings and public opinions, and thought that it would be contrary to the peace of heaven to prevent the officials from reuniting their families, so he changed the officials' one day off every ten days to two days off, so that the officials could have more time with their families, husbands and wives.

Qiu Jing and Qiu Rong entered Beijing as officials one after another, but they gritted their teeth and bought a mansion each, firstly, their family could come up with this silver, and secondly, as the children of the Qiu family, they could not smash the signboard of the old ancestral family.

However, Song and Yu made an appointment, and neither went with them to serve their husbands.

The Song family has old and young, and has to manage a large family, so they have to send two concubines to serve their husbands, and send another henchman to take care of them in the capital.

The Yu family can't completely let go of the family, but Qiu Rong's family started with Yu's dowry, and in order to show respect and gratitude, Qiu Rong did not take concubines, so there were only a few old family members who served with ease.

Qiu Ruyuan made friends with his teacher and also lived in the capital with his father.

Therefore, every day of rest, the three brothers, uncles and nephews will travel together for half a day to return to Shunyang City to reunite with their families.

Later, Qiu Ruyuan married Wang Qiaoer, the daughter of Qiu Rong's colleague, and the house in the capital was temporarily handed over to Wang Qiaoer to take care of.

At this time, Qiu Ruyuan and his wife were blending oil like glue, so they often used the excuse of visiting teachers and friends to discuss articles, and only once in three or five times did they have to go home.

Yu also strongly agreed with the eldest son to go home less, not because he didn't want to see his son, but he wanted to see his grandson even more, so he only said that the capital house was inseparable from people, and his body and bones were very good, so he didn't let his daughter-in-law come to serve him, and it was good that his son and wife didn't go home often, so as not to be tired of traveling and not being conducive to pregnancy.

And every time Qiu Rong comes back, it is when the two Qiu Ruhai brothers and sisters are sad.

Qiu Rong has always thought that his wife is too indulgent of her daughter, but it is the mother's responsibility to teach her daughter, so although she muttered two sentences behind her back, when facing her daughter, she was also kind and pleasant, but she never pretended to her second son.

As a descendant of the Qiu family, Qiu Rong is also ambitious, he hopes that the ancestral family business can be revived in his own hands, but his qualifications are limited, and after so many years, he is still only an inconsequential six-rank official in the Hanlin Academy.

Qiu Rong couldn't help pinning his hopes on his son, but fortunately, the eldest son was quite talented and middle-class, which made him proud.

When facing the second son who likes to broker mundane things, he can't help but lament the misfortune of leaving the house in his heart, so he always wants to break Qiu Ruhai to the right path of official career, so every time Qiu Ruhai sees his father, he is like a mouse seeing a cat.

But today, with the comfort of his mother, Qiu Ruhai is indeed a lot more relieved, and he is not as scared as before.

At two o'clock, Qiu Rong sent someone to the house first to say that he had entered the city.

Yu hurriedly led everyone to greet him in front of the door, and Qiu Ruhai's brother and sister followed behind their mother.

As soon as Qiu Rong entered the second door, he saw his wife and children greeting him, but his nose was sour for no reason, and his heart was sad.

Yu Shi couldn't help but be shocked when she saw that her husband had no joy on his face but a sad look, but he was just hindered by everyone asking carefully, and he kept looking at her husband.

Qiu Rong and Yu's husband and wife for more than 20 years, at a glance, knowing that his wife thought too much, he smiled and walked to the middle of his wife and children, and said: "There is nothing in this world that is more joyful than a safe reunion of a family. ”

When Yu heard his words and heard his voice, he knew that her husband must have seen the fate of Fang Jin's family, so he sighed in his heart, but it was a matter in the court, in order to prevent people from talking too much, it was inconvenient to deal with it, so he smiled and said: "Yuan'er is doing serious things, and it is nothing if he doesn't go home by chance, and it is not for the New Year." ”

When Qiu Ruhai heard this, he lowered his body hard behind his mother, which attracted Qiu Rong's attention, and Qiu Rong looked at Qiu Ruhai.

Worried that Qiu Rong would teach his son a lesson again and destroy the rare harmonious atmosphere, Yu was about to open his mouth to play a round, but he didn't expect Qiu Rong to look at Qiu Ruhai and nodded: "I heard that these days, things inside and outside the family, you have been busy with the work, and you have shared a lot of hard work for your mother, very good, you are a filial piety, you are also older, learn more about some family affairs, I and your brother are in the capital, and the affairs of this family will be handed over to you." ”

Qiu Ruhai hurriedly agreed, at first he thought he was dreaming, but then when he saw the bright sun shining in the courtyard, he knew that his father was praising himself, and his heart suddenly blossomed.
