This time we went out in a carriage.

Li was not feeling well and did not go with them; Shulan and Zhongxing did not go either.

Bosheng is studying at home.

The rest of the people went, and they all took two carriages.

One for men and one for women.

After getting on the carriage, Liu Tangxi saw Fu Yao's eyes rolling around with curiosity on her face, so she simply pulled up the curtain so that she could see outside.

Liu Tangxi naturally knew what Wei Laosan wanted to see, so he went straight to the restaurant.

The restaurant sells breakfast in the morning and there aren't many people there. It gets crowded around noon and in the evening.

Liu Tangxi led them to the kitchen in the back.

At that moment, they left without saying anything.

Then I went to the furniture shop to take a look.

After watching it, several people separated.

Wei Hanzhou took Wei Lao San and his two brothers to see the house and the place where Bo Sheng studied. Liu Tangxi took Zhang and others in a carriage and toured several main roads in the capital.

At first, everyone was exclaiming in amazement, but later on, no one said anything.

"The capital city is so big. I've never been to a place like this before." Zhang sighed.

"Sister-in-law, me too. I never dreamed that the capital would be such a place. It's better than I thought." Zhou said.

"My sisters-in-law have just arrived here. They will gradually get familiar with the place," Liu Tangxi said with a smile.

Zhang and Zhou smiled and nodded.

When it was almost time for lunch, several people went home.

Liu Tangxi was a little tired after shopping for the whole morning, so she left the cooking to the kitchen.

When the meal was almost ready, Dongsheng suddenly came back and told Liu Tangxi, Wei Hanzhou and others that they had gone to look at houses outside Beijing and would not be back for lunch.

Liu Tangxi quickly packed some food for Dongsheng to take away.

After hearing this, Li smiled and said, "Your father is just anxious. He must want to buy a house, so he asked the third child to go with him."

Liu Tangxi smiled and said, "It just so happens that my husband is on leave today, so I'll go take a look while I have time."

Wei Hanzhou and others did not return until the evening. Not only did they return, but they had also bought the house and land.

Now, Liu Tangxi was also surprised.

After listening to them carefully, Liu Tangxi finally understood.

It turned out that Wei Hanzhou had already gone to look at houses and selected a few.

I also looked at several places.

This time, I went with Wei Laosan and others to see the place he had chosen before.

This way, it will be quicker, won't it?

Liu Tangxi thought, Wei Hanzhou was amazing. He guessed what Wei Laosan was thinking in advance and arranged everything for Wei Laosan.

He is indeed smart and knows Wei Lao San well enough.

"Han Zhou picked a good place, in a village not far from the capital. The house was originally bought by an official when he was in the capital, and he sold it after leaving the capital. It takes at most 25 minutes to get to the north gate from there. We just took a carriage and arrived in the blink of an eye. The land is also nearby, which is very convenient."

After the house and land were bought, everyone felt relieved, and a smile gradually appeared on Li's face.

"Is the house big?" Li asked with a smile.

"Big." Wei Lao San said, "But the yard is not big, not as big as our old home, but there are more rooms than our old home."

Hearing this, Zhang and Zhou looked relieved. Now that they have more children and they are older, they have to live separately. If the place is small, they will have to squeeze together. If there are more houses than in the old house, then it will definitely be enough.

"Ah? Is it too small? Can't we raise chickens?" Li asked again.

Wei Lao San said, "You can raise chickens. Although the yard is small, there is a small garden in the back, similar to Lao San's yard, but only half the size. None of us know how to appreciate it, so I'm thinking about tidying up the small garden, making it flat, planting some vegetables, and building a chicken and pig pen."

Li was really relaxed now, and he was also looking forward to it and wanted to go and take a look.

"I'll go and take a look tomorrow," said Li.

"Okay, let's go clean up together tomorrow."

Both Zhang and Zhou seemed very happy.

"Okay, let's go clean up with mom tomorrow." Zhou said with a smile.

Although the courtyard they live in now was gifted by the emperor and looks very exquisite, they always feel that they are out of place. They are much more careful in what they say and do, for fear of being laughed at by the servants or breaking something.

It’s better to live comfortably in the house I bought myself.

Liu Tangxi once again sighed in his heart that Wei Laosan's family was truly hardworking and had no intention of taking advantage of them.

After dinner, we sat together and talked for a while. This time, we could clearly feel that everyone felt a lot more relaxed.

Wei Daniu and Wei Erhu talked about buying houses and land, as well as what they saw and heard on the road.

Zhang and Zhou talked about shopping. Among them, Fu Yao was the most excited and talked nonstop.

After talking for a while, everyone went back to their rooms.

Wei Hanzhou had something to do, so he went to the study.

When Liu Tangxi finished her bath and was sitting on the couch reading a book, Wei Hanzhou came back.

Wei Hanzhou was in good spirits, but his eyes stayed on Liu Tangxi for a moment. He thought of something and turned around to take a bath inside.

When the two of them turned off the lights and lay down on the bed, Liu Tangxi asked, "Is the small garden in the house difficult to improve? I'll ask the servants and maids to go over and help tomorrow?"

Wei Hanzhou turned around, hugged Liu Tangxi, and said, "No need."

"My parents have been exhausted from the journey, and my brothers and sisters-in-law probably don't feel well either. Why not get someone to help? One day will be enough."

Wei Hanzhou suddenly sniffed her scent and asked, "Did you change the incense?"

"Ah?" Wei Hanzhou changed the subject so quickly that Liu Tangxi didn't react for a moment.

After she realized what was happening, she asked, "Yes, it's changed to the scent of gardenia. Does it smell good?"

Wei Hanzhou sniffed it again and said, "Hmm, it smells good."

After that, he continued the topic just now, "There is not much work. I guess my parents, brothers and sisters-in-law want to do it themselves."

Realizing Wei Hanzhou's intention, Liu Tangxi raised his hand and pushed him, pretending to rebuke him: "You are too unfilial."

Wei Hanzhou Wensi not only did not move but also moved closer.

"My lady, you can arrange a few servants to help."

"Um."

Then, Liu Tangxi felt a warm touch on her skin, which suddenly tensed up.

"Hey, I'm telling you something serious, what are you doing?"

Hearing this, Wei Hanzhou suddenly turned over and pressed on Liu Tangxi, looked into her eyes, and said seriously: "Isn't this a serious matter?"

Hearing Wei Hanzhou's shameless words, Liu Tangxi's face suddenly turned red, and she said shyly: "You...you are so slick."

Wei Hanzhou loved her shy look. He bent down and kissed her lips, saying, "Mother probably thinks I'm not working hard enough."

Liu Tangxi blinked and asked, "Did your mother tell you just now?"

Isn't it?

Just now, Wei Hanzhou was reading in the study, and Li went over and said a few words to him.

Wei Hanzhou lowered his head and buried it in Liu Tangxi's neck again, asking a few questions one after another.

"oh?"

"It seems that mother has also told my wife?"

Liu Tangxi raised his hand and touched Wei Hanzhou's hair, saying, "I said... I said... but I didn't say it clearly."

Since arriving yesterday, Li has been staring at her belly from time to time. She also stared at her while eating. Today, she even asked Nanny Cheng privately whether she had her period this month.

"Well, there are three unfilial acts and the worst of them is not having a child. As your husband, I think having a child is the most filial thing to do." Wei Hanzhou was responding to Liu Tangxi by bringing up what she had just said about him being unfilial.

After that, no more sound of the two people talking could be heard in the room, only intermittent voices could be heard from time to time.

After a long time, the house became quiet again.

Liu Tangxi lay in Wei Hanzhou's arms, grabbed a strand of Wei Hanzhou's hair, and asked, "Do you want a child?"

Wei Hanzhou put his hand on Liu Tangxi's waist, thought for a moment, and asked, "Do you want it, madam?"

Liu Tangxi didn't hesitate and said, "Of course I do."

She has always liked children.

Besides, she also likes Wei Hanzhou very much.

She felt it would be a very happy thing if she could give birth to a child with her and Wei Hanzhou's blood flowing in his blood.

I don’t know whether the child will look like Wei Hanzhou or her.

It would be best if the boy looks like Wei Hanzhou and the girl looks like her.

Thinking of the miniature version of Wei Hanzhou with a stern face, Liu Tangxi burst out laughing.

"Hmm?" Wei Hanzhou looked at the woman in his arms puzzledly.

"Ah, nothing, nothing." Liu Tangxi stopped laughing and said, "By the way, do you want a son or a daughter?"

"All good."

"It would be best to have two, a son and a daughter," said Liu Tangxi.

It's good enough like Bosheng and Shulan, Fuyao and Zhongxing.

"Well, I will work hard in the future." Wei Hanzhou said to her teasingly.

However, Liu Tangxi was not teased. Instead, she suddenly had an idea and remembered what Yin often talked about.

Yin always felt that something was not right between her and Wei Hanzhou. She either suspected that they were not truly in love, or that there was something wrong with their health, otherwise they would not have had no children after three years of marriage.

Although Liu Tangxi understood that it was normal for them not to have children as they had only been married for more than half a year, at this moment he could not help but think along the lines of Yin's thoughts.

Speaking of which, Wei Goudan has been working very hard over the past six months, and they have sex quite a few times every month.

She didn't take any contraceptive measures, so why is there no movement in her stomach yet?

"Sometimes it takes more than just hard work to accomplish this." Liu Tangxi suddenly said in a depressing tone.

After saying that, he looked at Wei Hanzhou with a strange look.

Wei Hanzhou really didn't want to understand what Liu Tangxi meant, but he had no choice but to understand, because Liu Tangxi made it clear next.

"How about I ask the doctor to check your pulse tomorrow when I see mom?"

Wei Hanzhou narrowed his eyes slightly.

"If you don't believe in the doctor's ability, why don't you go to the Imperial Hospital to check it out yourself?" Liu Tangxi suggested again.

After she finished speaking, she saw Wei Hanzhou staring at her with a strange look. Liu Tangxi said, "Why are you looking at me like that? I'm absolutely fine. The imperial physician checked my pulse before. We've been together for more than half a year. If there's any problem, it's yours."

Hearing this, Wei Hanzhou could no longer bear it, so he turned over and pressed forward again, and asked with a sullen face: "Madam, do you think there is something wrong with your husband?"

Liu Tangxi was frightened by Wei Hanzhou's cold eyes and whispered, "Well, it doesn't mean that there is something wrong with you. Why don't you check it out early? If there is no problem, we can all rest assured, right?"

Oh.

It seems that my wife is not tired enough and still has the mind to think about these things.

Next, Liu Tangxi deeply regretted the flash of inspiration that had just come to his mind.

"Husband, I...I was wrong." Liu Tangxi began to beg for mercy.

"What's wrong?"

"Well...well, the child is the destiny of the parents. There is absolutely no problem with you. It's just that the time has not come yet." Liu Tangxi said with a tearful face.

"Will you tell me again in the future?"

"No...I won't say it anymore."

Although he admitted his mistake, the punishment he deserved was still the same.

Liu Tangxi cursed Wei Goudan harshly in his heart.

I cursed a few times but still didn't feel better.

He grabbed his arm, opened his mouth and bit it hard.

However, Wei Hanzhou had thick skin and tough flesh, so not only did he fail to bite, he even got his teeth stuck.

Liu Tangxi was so angry that she shook off his arm, turned over and went to sleep inside.

Wei Hanzhou came over and held her in his arms.

Liu Tangxi shook him off a few times, but she was really out of strength, so she stopped shaking him off and gradually fell asleep.

Early the next morning, Wei Hanzhou went to court early.

Although Liu Tangxi woke up, she ignored him, didn't cook for him, and continued to sleep.

Nanny Cheng knew that their wife must have been tired last night and would not be able to cook this morning, so she asked the kitchen to do it.

I heard that almost everyone at the Li family's place has gotten up, and Liu Tangxi has also gotten up.

After getting up, rubbing his aching waist, Liu Tangxi secretly cursed Wei Hanzhou a few words.

After dinner, the group went to a house in the suburbs of Beijing.

This house is indeed not small and is divided into two parts.

The front part is square. As soon as you enter the door, you will see the front wall. After you go around it, you will see a very small courtyard, or patio. The front wall of the main entrance is the main house, which has three rooms in a row. There is a hanging flower gate on each side. The left and right side courtyards are symmetrical, with three rooms on each side. However, the side courtyard is even smaller. There is a tree planted in the courtyard, and nothing else.

Zhang and Zhou were very satisfied.

This is equivalent to having your own small yard.

And there are three rooms in total, enough for the children.

The back part is irregular, that is, a small garden full of flowers, plants and trees, and paved with goose-warm stone paths.

As Wei Hanzhou said, there weren't many things, just some small trivial matters.

What they have to do today is to tidy up the small garden, pull out the useless flowers and plants, use the bricks here to build a pigpen and chicken coop, turn the soil over, and prepare to plant vegetables.

However, although there is not much work, it is not easy to do.

Everyone rolled up their sleeves and got to work.

Liu Tangxi also wore a cotton dress today, intending to do some work with them.

She also does housework at home on weekdays and doesn't think it's a big deal.

However, just as he was about to squat down to work, he was stopped by Li.

"Hey, Third Brother's wife, stop working and go take a rest over there."

Liu Tangxi was very surprised and looked at Li with confusion on his face.

Li didn't say much, her face was full of smiles.

"It's okay. I'll just pull some weeds. It won't be tiring."

"You really don't need to do anything. There are so many people here. You can just watch from the side."

Zhou seemed to understand something and advised Liu Tangxi to stop doing it.

Liu Tangxi was really confused.

"Aren't there a few servants here that you brought with you? This place is small and there's not enough room for so many people to move around. Just sit here and watch."

Liu Tangxi was indeed a little tired last night. There were many people working here and her strength was limited. Seeing that Li was determined not to let her work, she sat aside.

Seeing her sit down, Li seemed to show a relieved look on her face.

and--

The eyes seemed to glance at her belly.

Could it be that Wei Hanzhou said something to Li?

After Liu Tangxi sat here and watched for a while, he went to the front to see the maids cleaning.

Seeing that it was almost noon and Li and the others had no plans to go back, Liu Tangxi asked someone to go to the capital to buy food.

Because there were so many people, by the evening, everything inside and outside had been cleaned up.

Seeing the once beautiful little garden now empty, everyone had a look of relief on their faces.

Liu Tangxi wondered how the previous owner of the house would feel if he knew that the garden he had spent a lot of money to build had become like this.

Although it has been cleaned, the house has not been occupied for a long time and cannot be lived in now.

So, everyone returned to the capital at night.

As soon as the carriage got off, another carriage came from behind.

Liu Tangxi was very familiar with the carriage, it was from the mansion next door. He thought the carriage would pass by, but unexpectedly, it stopped at their door.

As soon as the car stopped, the curtain was lifted from the inside.

"Mrs. Wei."

Liu Tangxi took a look and said, "Madam Li."

Although the surname of the Huang Mansion Minister is Huang, he has two wives in his mansion. He usually addresses her by the surnames of the two wives to distinguish them. After all, if he calls her Madam Huang, the original wife will probably be unhappy. If he calls her the original wife, she will be unhappy too.

"Oh, there are so many people here. Are they Lord Wei's relatives?" There was contempt in Mrs. Li's eyes.

Liu Tangxi could clearly sense the discomfort of Li, Zhang and others.

"They are not relatives, they are my family," said Liu Tangxi.

How could Madam Li not know the identities of these people? This place is so small, and the residences are close to each other, so if there is any big movement in someone's house, the neighbors will know about it.

"Then your house will be bustling." Mrs. Li's words had hidden meaning, and her eyes were full of schadenfreude as she looked at Liu Tangxi.

Liu Tangxi really disliked this girl from the Shaoqing Mansion of the Dali Temple.

Her first impression was not good, and when she found out about her identity and tried to curry favor with her, her impression of her became even worse. Later, as the prince's power gradually grew, he began to show off his power.

"Speaking of liveliness, it's not as lively as your mansion. It was ok for you to fight and quarrel in the past, but now we have old people and children in our house, so I hope the two ladies and the adults can be more peaceful." Liu Tangxi said with a straight face.

Although Wei Hanzhou's official position was not high, she was born into a marquis's family.

Normally, I would give Mrs. Li face by talking to her. But now that she doesn't want face, I won't give it to her.

After saying that, Liu Tangxi ignored her and helped Li walk towards the mansion.

Although Mrs. Li felt utterly ashamed, she did not dare to sneer back at Liu Tangxi after seeing his expression.

However, looking at the people from the countryside around Liu Tangxi, Mrs. Li snorted heavily, waiting to see Liu Tangxi laugh.

She just couldn't believe that she, the legitimate daughter of a marquis's family, could get along well with these people.

Thinking of this, she felt better and lowered the car curtains to go back home.
