Rebirth: From being expelled from the imperial court to becoming a high-ranking official

Qin Yunhe discussed with Yuru and decided to send Zhuzi back home soon.

After nearly another month of travel, Qin's mother, Qin Zheng and Qin Ci were finally brought to the capital before the twelfth lunar month.

"It looks like it's not even as big as the courtyard of Xu Ning's mansion."

Qin's mother strolled around Qin Yunhe's official residence, looking around, muttering with some disappointment.

Qin Yunhe hadn't finished his duty yet. Yuru heard her mother-in-law say this and said, "Mother, this is the capital, not like a local government office. There are many officials here. Considering Yunhe's rank, this official residence is already big."

In fact, Qin's mother just felt a little disappointed that the place in Beijing was not as spacious as before. Although she still didn't understand why the place in Beijing was smaller than the place in her hometown, she didn't say anything else.

"Mom, let's go check on your house first."

"Okay, let's go take a look."

Qin Zheng and Qin Ci hadn't seen their sister for half a year. As soon as they saw Ruyi, they pestered her and were very affectionate.

Ruyi felt like an older sister when she was being pestered by her two younger brothers.

"Okay, the testimony, stop making a fuss." Ruyi said seriously, "Have you memorized the book well after my sister left?"

As soon as the topic of serious matters came up, Qin Zheng stood up straight immediately. Qin Ci knelt on the stool and leaned on the table to get closer to her sister, grinning: "Sister, what book?"

Ruyi is helpless: "When people are young——"

Qin Ci said: "…Humanity is inherently good."

"Similar in nature—"

Qin Ci frowned and thought for a long time, then suddenly gave up: "It's not fun, my ears hurt, I want to go find my mother."

As he said this, he jumped off the stool and ran away. As soon as he left the room, he started calling for his mother.

Ruyi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She looked at her older brother who was still standing beside her and said, "Zheng'er, do you want to go find mom? Sister will take you to find mom."

Qin Ci hesitated for a moment and nodded.

Ruyi led her brother out, and Qin Ci followed her sister out, hesitantly saying, "Sister, I can carry you."

Ruyi immediately perked up when she heard this: "Have you recited the certificate? Recite it for me."

"When a person is born, his nature is good. Natures are close, but habits make them different. If there is no teaching, nature will change. The way of teaching is to be focused. In the past, Meng's mother chose neighbors carefully. When her son refused to learn, she broke the loom. Dou Yanshan had a righteous method. He taught his five sons and all of them became famous. Raising a child without teaching is the fault of the father. Teaching without strictness is the laziness of the teacher."

Ruyi's eyes lit up, and he felt that his efforts were not in vain and he had a sense of accomplishment.

But I soon realized that something was wrong!

"How come Zheng'er has memorized more than I taught him?"

"Brother Kang taught me."

"Little Chen Kang will teach you how to memorize."

Qin Zheng nodded: "Brother Kang said that their teacher knows a lot and can recite any book."

When Qin Yunhe came back in the evening, he was very happy to see his mother and son.

Yuru had already asked the kitchen to prepare a table full of family favorite meals in advance. After being separated for nearly two years, the family was finally able to gather together again in a lively atmosphere.

During the day off, Qin Yunhe took his mother, wife and children to travel around the capital, bought a lot of capital-specific pastries and delicacies, and bought some small toys for his son.

On the way home, Qin's mother realized that her son's official residence was in the imperial city, a place where every inch of land was valuable, and the official residences of other departments were not so close to her own yamen.

Zhuzi understood Mother Qin's thoughts best, and said while driving: "Old Madam, you have never seen the official residences of other yamen, they are shabby and small, and much farther away.

When we first arrived in the capital, the official residence of the master here had not moved out yet, so we could only rent an official residence outside. It was still a special care of the master's classmates, and the official residence there was smaller than this one.

Among all the government offices in the capital, only the three judicial departments were so grand that they could build official residences near their own government offices.

Look at the houses around our house, they all belong to the Censorate."

"Oh, really, there are many houses of the rich people around here. So our yard is not that small after all."

When Qin's mother heard this, her thoughts changed immediately. She felt proud and thought her son was indeed promising.

When it comes to observing the mother's expression and prescribing the right medicine, it really depends on the pillar. Qin Yunhe couldn't help but laugh when he saw his mother's immediate change of mind.

Since my son has been brought to the capital, he will naturally be arranged to go to school after the new year.

".…..I asked Zhao Tang. There is a Yuxian Academy in his county, which has a good reputation. Most of the teachers in the academy are well-educated people who do not want to enter the government. There is also a Boyi Private School which is not bad. The teacher there teaches..."

"Mom, mom," Qin Ci ran over and threw himself on Yu Ru's lap: "I want to go out and play——"

Yuru stroked her son's back and said soothingly, "Mom will take you out to play later."

Qin Yunhe continued, "The Boyi Private School is a little far away, but the teacher is very patient and good at teaching children. I think it would be a good idea to send Zheng'erci there..."

Qin Ci was originally pestering his mother, but when he heard where he and his brother were going to be sent, he said, "I don't want to go. Daddy wants me to go wherever he wants."

Yuru smiled and said, "I'm not sending you anywhere, I'm sending you to school, and I'll be back after school."

Who knew that Qin Ci would immediately change his face and refuse to do anything after hearing this: "I don't want to go to school!"

"Why don't you want to go to school?" Yuru asked, "Isn't it good to go to school to learn to read and learn knowledge?"

"Brother Kang said that if you can't memorize the books in school, you will be spanked, I don't want to go..."

Qin Yunhe was speechless: "Why don't you just study hard and memorize it well?"

"Anyway, I don't want to go."

As Qin Ci spoke, he sat on the ground and hugged his mother's legs, with a tearful tone in his voice.

Qin Yunhe's forehead twitched when he saw this, and he said sternly, "How can you be so naughty sitting there? Get up."

He has watched several children grow up, but he has never met one like his youngest son.

Even though Yu Ge'er was a little more cheerful when he was young, most of the time he would speak nicely when he encountered something he didn't like.

I don’t know who Qin Ci looks like.

Thinking of this, Qin Yunhe was suddenly stunned and felt a little embarrassed: it seemed like himself when he was a child.

What a crime.

Thinking of this, Qin Yunhe softened his tone and said, "Okay, Ci'er, get up and listen to Dad."

"I don't want to listen. I don't want to go to school. I don't want to be spanked. Wuuwuwu..."

Yu Ru tried to coax and persuade him, but Qin Ci refused to give up, as if he had already been sent to the school gate. He lay on the ground and struggled, and couldn't be pulled up, not even caring about the cold ground.

Qin Yunhe was helpless and a little angry at his son's howling, and said, "If you make trouble again, I will hit your palm now."

I didn't expect this sentence to have any effect, but unexpectedly Qin Ci's crying became much quieter, and he quietly kicked the ground and moved closer to his mother.

Qin Yunhe didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and Yuru also burst out laughing.

Mother Qin also heard Qin Ci's crying and ran over: "What's wrong?"

When he came over, he heard his son saying he was going to beat his grandson. He immediately glared at his son in dissatisfaction, and said as he went to hug his grandson, "You can't talk nicely, you glare at him. Did you teach Yu Ge'er the same way?"

Qin Yunhe was speechless: "When has Brother Yu ever been so naughty and acted like a spoiled brat?"

Mother Qin had already coaxed her grandson to wake up. As she led Qin Ci out, she glared at her son again: "Then who should I follow? It's still you!"

Qin Yunhe choked and became speechless.

Yu Ru is two years younger than Qin Yunhe, so she naturally didn't have the chance to witness Qin Yunhe's feat of rolling on the ground. However, she had heard her brothers and sisters-in-law talk about it. When she heard it now, she put herself in Qin Yunhe's shoes and couldn't help laughing out loud.
