The steward came to ask Ren Shimin for his decision. After some thought, Ren Shimin decided to go to Yunyang City himself to take a look. After all, he would be living there for quite a while. Master Ren San was a man of high aspirations, and he was picky about the environment.
However, Master Ren San rejected the courtyard that was very close to Prince Xian's family without thinking. He only went to see the second courtyard closest to the academy and the last third courtyard.
Mr. Ren San didn't like his uncle's family, so he didn't want to have anything to do with them.
Ren Yaoqi didn't say anything after knowing this. It was actually better for the people of Prince Xian's Mansion and the Ren family not to have contact with each other. It was okay if they lived a little far away from each other, because even if they lived next door, they couldn't always run to their grandparents' house for no reason.
Master Ren San planned to take Ren Yaoqi to Yunyang City to look at courtyards. After all, when it came to aesthetics, father and daughter had similar tastes and could easily communicate. If they finally decided on a courtyard, they could discuss any renovations that needed to be arranged.
Ren Yaoqi took Ren Yaohua with him as usual. Ren Yaohua had nothing to do at home, so he thought about it and agreed.
However, when the father, daughter and their two daughters went to say goodbye to Old Lady Ren, Old Lady Ren asked Ren Shimin to take Ren Yaoying, who was in her room at the time, with him.
Old Mrs. Ren smiled and said, "Let's go and take a look. We're all going to live together in the future anyway."
Ren Shimin didn't like this concubine's daughter very much, but he didn't say anything after the old lady gave the order. It doesn't matter if he takes two or three, so let's go together.
Ren Yaoying was very happy. She thanked Old Lady Ren and Ren Shimin, and smiled gently at Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua.
Ren Yaoqi was fine, but Ren Yaohua turned his head away with a cold face without even looking at her.
Ren Yaoying didn't care. She just blinked her eyes and asked the old lady obediently, "Grandma, when the time comes, will my brother, my aunt, and I also go to Yunyang City with father to live?"
Old Madam Ren has been very kind to Ren Yaoying recently, and always invites her to her yard to relieve her boredom. Hearing this, she smiled and said, "Didn't you say before that you like Yunyang City? If you like it, let's go together." Many times, Old Madam Ren would act very nice and talk to you, as long as she was willing to pamper you and give you face.
Now the granddaughters who hold the most reputation in front of Old Lady Ren are Ren Yaohua and Ren Yaoqi. Perhaps soon Ren Yaoying will be added to the list as well. They are all daughters of the third wife.
Ren Shimin frowned and said calmly, "You and Yihong can go, but your aunt has to stay at the Ren family."
Ren Yaoying subconsciously asked, "Why can't Auntie go?"
Ren Shimin said unhappily, "I'm going to Yunyang Academy to teach, not to travel. Bringing a concubine with me is ridiculous! Are you going to make a fool of yourself? If you want to go with me, you must be obedient in front of my stepmother. Otherwise, it's better for you to stay in the Ren family."
Ren Yaoying bit her lower lip, tears already welling up in her eyes.
Old Mrs. Ren tried to smooth things over, saying, "Okay, okay, this is what I meant. Why are you taking your anger out on a child?"
Ren Shimin said: "Mother, even if Aunt Fang goes to Yunyang City with us, she can only stay in the house and cannot go out. It is better for her to stay in the Ren family, a familiar place. I will take Yihong and Yaoying with me." Master Ren San, who was very concerned about his reputation, insisted on this point. He would not joke about his reputation in front of his students and friends.
