Not long after Evan Zhao bought a house in the south of the city, Wei Qing took out the money and cloth he had saved, plus the savings given by Wei Ai, and bought a house with a courtyard in the north of the city.
The owner of the house was originally a merchant from Chang'an. He made a fortune selling furs and bought the house he had rented. He used the front as a shop and the back as a courtyard, which was convenient for both business and living. He hired a craftsman to renovate the house and then took his parents who were living in the old house to live with him.
Because the old house was old, the tiles on the walls were damaged, the courtyard was narrow, and it was not facing the street, so it could not be rented out at a high price. Evan Zhao Zhao Ren was busy with business, and his wife was pregnant, so he could not spare much energy. He simply discussed with his parents that it would be better to sell the old house as soon as possible instead of leaving it vacant, and he could get some money.
In Chang'an, where nobles were everywhere, Wei Qing, as a guard of Weiyang Palace and a personal soldier of Evan Zhao, was still not qualified to live in a house in the south of the city.
In addition, he spent most of the month in the military camp or in the palace, and rarely stayed at home. My brother had no official position, and his family was full of women and children, so it was inconvenient for him to live in the south of the city.
