Mrs. Sun said hurriedly: "Silly son, what are you talking about? Mom is here to help you take care of your children, not to enjoy the blessings. You can live anywhere, as long as there is a tile above your head!"

Daan felt even more guilty because of these words, and so did Xiaohua.

Seeing this, Yang Ruoqing spoke again: "Of course Mom and we won't be picky about how we live. Our family has survived from three thatched huts, so don't feel guilty."

When the conversation changed, she raised her finger and pointed to the east wing over there, "Is that the room where you and your wife live?"

Daan looked over there and nodded.

Yang Ruoqing said: "This kind of house design cannot protect privacy. I suggest you change this yard to a new one with two entrances."

Daan had a somewhat troubled look on his face.

"Sister, to be honest, on the one hand, I am quite busy, so I took a day off today. Secondly, the area of ​​​​the capital is really richer than we imagined. Every inch of land is valuable..."

"Silly brother, I know you live here because you are reluctant to give up money. Why are you hesitating here with your sister?"

Yang Ruoqing interrupted Daan's words with a smile.

"My sister has money, and I have even more spare time. I will settle in a little bit today, and I will go to the whole capital to look at houses early tomorrow morning!"

After lunch, the family gathered around Mr. Sun and talked about themselves for a long time.

Daan suggested: "Mom, sister, two sisters, I suggest you go back to the house in the afternoon and take a good nap. You have been traveling bumpyly for more than two months and you are tired."

"After you have rested, our family will go out to eat at night. I have booked a table of food at a restaurant on the street in front so that you can have a taste of the food outside."

…

As dusk fell and the lanterns came on, Mrs. Sun, surrounded by her son, daughter, daughter-in-law, grandson, etc., went to a private room on the second floor of a restaurant on the street outside to have dinner.

"Wow, are the dishes on this table all from the capital? They all look so novel!" Xiaojie said excitedly.

Xiaoduo said: "I'm thinking, the master who carves this roast duck is really good at cutting. He can carve a whole duck into such pieces, and it doesn't affect the appearance at all when placed on the plate. It still looks like a duck."

A complete duck lying down.”

Yang Ruoqing smiled and said: "This is Quanjude Roast Duck, a time-honored brand, very old!"

After eating and drinking, Ms. Sun looked at her grandchildren on the table with a face filled with joy.

"We enjoy the hot and spicy food here, but I don't know how your father is doing back home. Hey, it's deserted." Mrs. Sun said.

The smile on Da'an's face faded, he looked at Mrs. Sun and said with shame: "It's my son who is unfilial. My parents have reached this age, but they still let you live apart and worry about each other..."

Mrs. Sun said a little embarrassedly: "What are you talking about? I don't have any worries anymore. It's just an old couple. We can't see each other, so we just have a few more words."

Yang Ruoqing said: "My mother came here specifically for my eldest grandson, and my father also fully supports my mother's coming to the capital."

"Da'an, if you really feel sorry for yourself, just concentrate on your errands. When you have established a firm foothold in the capital, you can take your parents over to take care of you."

Daan nodded vigorously.

Mrs. Sun smiled and said: "It's right to concentrate on your errands, but if you want to bring me and your father over for a long time, let's forget about it."

"What? Isn't this capital good?" Yang Ruoqing joked,

"I remember that my mother just entered the city today and was dazzled by the things on the street. She even praised this place as a prosperous place!" she said.

Mrs. Sun smiled and said: "No matter how rich you are, it will be suitable for you to settle down and establish a career in the future, because you want to do great things."

"Your father and I still like to stay in Changping Village, where we were born and raised. We live comfortably and down-to-earth."

Everyone at the table stopped talking, but they felt all kinds of things in their hearts.

There is a curfew in the capital at night, and you are not allowed to walk around on the streets outside after the specified time.

This rule is an order issued by His Royal Highness the Prince and Regent Qi Xingyun after he took charge of government affairs.

At night, the city also arranged for troops from the five cities to patrol back and forth. Anyone who wants to travel or something must have a token.

Although this has directly affected the business of many restaurants, shops and brothels, but after experiencing the rebellion of the puppet emperor last year, everyone is now as frightened as a bird.

As long as it's stable, not chaotic, and you can make less money.

Besides, this is the order of His Highness the Crown Prince, which is the emperor’s will. Who dares to disobey it?

So, after we finished eating here, the waiter from the restaurant over there came over to ask for the bill. It was time for the restaurant to close.

Everyone gathered around Sun and returned to Daan and Xiaohua's small courtyard house in a certain alley. Daan directly called his nephew Chen'er to his small study, and the uncle and nephew went to exchange knowledge and experiences.

Xiaoduo Xiaojie had eaten and drank enough, and the sleepiness of the past few days came over her. After taking a bath, she went back to the house and fell asleep with her head covered.

Yang Ruoqing and Xiaohua helped Sun wash her face and feet, and then the three of them sat under the lamp and talked about everyday things.

Mainly, Xiaohua asked Sun about things in her hometown, and then Sun asked about Xiaohua and Daan's life in the capital during this period.

What do you eat and drink every day? What are the backgrounds of these servants in the yard? What do they do?

What's your temper like? Does it make you disobedient or something like that?

Sun asked in detail, and Xiaohua also answered in detail.

"I have never ordered servants before, and I am not used to ordering servants," Xiaohua said with some embarrassment.

"I just said I'm here to do these jobs. Isn't it just washing, cooking and cleaning the yard? I'm not tired at all,"

"But Brother Da'an wouldn't let him. He said that he wanted to hire a driver anyway, so the rough lady hired one as well."

"Then I thought that I would go shopping on the street and didn't know the way, so I bought a local maid to come over and keep me company."

"Some time ago, the doctor found out that I was pregnant, so Brother Da'an bought another maid to take care of me. Now I have really become a young mistress..."

Hearing Xiaohua's words, Sun and Yang Ruoqing looked at each other and smiled.

Yang Ruoqing gently patted the back of Xiaohua's hand and said, "I can't see that Da'an, a nerd who keeps quiet and doesn't do anything, can still be so fond of his wife in private. Mom and I, don't worry."

Xiaohua's face turned redder.

Then, they talked about pregnancy and childbirth, which was Sun's specialty and the ultimate goal of this trip to Beijing.

"Hua'er, now that my mother is here with her two younger sisters, you can resign the rough lady and the two little maids in your yard if you can. You don't have to waste the money."

"Besides, there are a few strangers like them in our yard. When my eldest grandson is born, I won't worry about asking them to help take care of the child. I think of Qian and Chen'er back then...
