Dugu Jingyao is reborn as Li Chu's beloved

After a sumptuous breakfast, everyone got up and returned to their own courtyards according to their respective arrangements.

Before long, the two Chu brothers sat bored in the courtyard, their eyes wandering from place to place. Finally, Chu Xingchen, unable to contain his inner annoyance, reached out and pulled Chu Xinghan beside him, asking expectantly, "Brother, this is so boring! How about we ask Father to take us to see the new house together?"

In reality, Chu Xinghan also agreed with this idea, but as the elder brother, he still deliberately put on airs, pretending to be steady and said, "How can you be so impatient, kid? You just run outside all day long? Be careful of getting scolded by your father!"

Hearing this, Chu Xingchen couldn't help but mutter in his heart: Humph, it's obviously boring! Besides, I don't believe that you don't want to go!

Then, Chu Xingchen tightly grasped Chu Xinghan's sleeve, shaking him and coquettishly saying, "Please, brother~ Think about it carefully, that's the mansion we will live in in the future! Although we haven't been to Chang'an many times, every time we come, we have to stay in the post station or stay in other people's homes. If we have a place of our own, we won't have to suffer these grievances in the future. Since it has such a close relationship with us, of course we have to go and take a look and check it out in person!"

Chu Xinghan's heart rippled after hearing what Chu Xingchen said, and his once resolute heart seemed to waver. He cleared his throat and said softly, "Ahem... Well, you do have a point. Well, if that's the case, let's go together and discuss it with Father, and ask him to take us along." Before he finished speaking, the two of them walked side by side, heading towards Mo Yuxuan, where Chu Xiaoyi lived.

However, fate is full of coincidences. Just as they were about to reach the entrance of Mo Yuxuan, they unexpectedly ran into Chu Xiaoyi, who was about to leave. If Chu Xinghan and Chu Xingchen had arrived a moment later, they would have missed this chance encounter.

The two brothers hurriedly bowed to Chu Xiaoyi and shouted in unison: "Greetings, father!"

Chu Xiaoyi was preoccupied with inspecting the house as quickly as possible so he could enter the palace to see his wife and daughter. Therefore, he seemed a little absent-minded. He waved his hand casually and replied perfunctorily, "Get up! What do you want from me?"

Seeing Chu Xiaoyi in such a hurry, Chu Xinghan knew that this opportunity was too good to miss, so he simply stopped beating around the bush and directly explained the reason for his visit: "Father, could you take us to visit that house together?"

Chu Xiaoyi didn't want to take them with him, but he wanted to go out quickly. Because he wanted to enter the palace earlier, he asked Xunfeng to change the time for visiting the house to the morning.

He said to the two of them, "Okay, if you two have nothing to do, follow me!"

After getting Chu Xiaoyi's permission, the two brothers were naturally very happy, but they did not show it on the surface. They just quickly followed Chu Xiaoyi's pace and got on the carriage together.

We soon arrived at the first house, which was located at the end of East Street. Although it was far from the palace, it had the advantage of being quiet and peaceful.

After getting off the carriage, they saw the owner of the house waiting at the door. After exchanging pleasantries, they followed the owner into the house to explore.

The gate of the house is made of heavy wood and inlaid with copper nails, giving it a solemn and simple appearance. Entering the gate, there is a spacious front yard with bluestone paved on the ground and several osmanthus trees planted on both sides. Every autumn, the osmanthus flowers bloom and the fragrance is overflowing.

Passing through the front yard, one enters the first courtyard, home to the main hall and study. The main hall, furnished with a suite of rustic furniture and decorated with several famous calligraphy and paintings on the walls, appears particularly elegant. The study, overflowing with books and antiques, reveals the owner's erudition and taste.

The second courtyard is the dining room and kitchen. There is a large round table in the dining room that can accommodate more than a dozen people dining at the same time.

The third courtyard is home to the guest rooms and bathroom. The guest rooms are cozy and comfortable, with soft bedding on the bed, allowing guests to fully rest. The bathroom is equipped with a large bathtub, allowing guests to wash away the day's fatigue.

The fourth courtyard is a garden and pond. The garden is filled with various flowers and plants, allowing people to feel the beauty of nature. In the pond, there are several goldfish, allowing people to enjoy the fish playing.

The last yard is the backyard, which is the owner's residence. The whole house has a reasonable layout and exquisite decoration, which makes people feel the owner's care and taste.

After wandering around the mansion for about two incense sticks of time, Chu Xiaoyi finally spoke up and said that he needed to think it over again.

The owner of the mansion was obviously a sensible person. He knew very well that it was impossible to make a decision easily on such an important matter by only looking at one company.

So, with a smile on his face, he politely said to Chu Xiaoyi and the others, "No problem. If you have any further needs or ideas, please feel free to contact me." As soon as he finished speaking, he stood still, watching the group board the carriage with a gentle gaze and slowly depart...

Afterwards, they boarded the carriage again and headed towards the next house. When they arrived at their destination, they immediately noticed the difference between this place and the previous one - it was obviously much more lively!

It is located in the bustling downtown area and is relatively close to the imperial palace, making it extremely convenient for daily travel and for going to the palace to do business.

Led by the owner, they began to carefully tour the house. After observing it for a while, Chu Xiaoyi thought to himself, "No wonder the price here is higher than other places. You really get what you pay for! Just from the location and overall layout, it's already superior. And the space inside this house seems to be more spacious and open. This makes it a really good choice!" Thinking of this, Chu Xiaoyi couldn't help but feel a little more favorable towards this house.

Then they boarded the carriage and headed towards the Guangping Prince's Palace...

In the car, Chu Xiaoyi thought for a moment and then asked, "What do you two think of these two houses?"

Chu Xingchen expressed his opinion first: "Father, I think this house is superior in terms of both its geographical location and spatial layout. It's just a little more expensive, but it's worth it!"

Chu Xinghan had a different opinion: "Father, I think that house a little further away is more suitable. After all, we won't be living in Chang'an for long, so we don't need to spend so much money to buy a house. Besides, it's not that far away. It only takes about two incense sticks to drive to the palace."

After listening to his two sons' analysis, Chu Xiaoyi had a rough idea in his mind. If they didn't live there all the time, there was no need to buy such an expensive house. Just look at his eldest brother Dugu. His family was still a royal palace, but they only bought a house with five courtyards as their residence. He shouldn't be too extravagant at home...
