Chapter 263: Liu Xiaoli Monthly Pass)
Chapter 263 Qin Huaidao's carriage had just arrived on the road on Liu Pingzhong's mansion when he saw the two brothers Liu Xiaoyi. Qin Huaidao knew that they were coming to greet him.
"I have met Duke Hu!" Liu Xiaoyi and his brothers bowed to Qin Huaidao.
"Well, how are you doing recently? Are you reading a book?" Qin Huaidao asked with a smile.
"I read it. Recently, in addition to going to the Imperial College, I just read books in my house!" Liu Xiaoyi nodded and said,
He dared not be dissatisfied with Qin Huaidao's questions about studying. Although Qin Huaidao is younger than him, they knew Qin Huaidao's ability.
In the Imperial Academy, many people knew that the two of their brothers were Qin Huaidao's cousins, and they both looked at each other, and no one bullied them. Moreover, when it comes to Qin Huaidao, those students all had respect in their tone. After all, the books they read now were printed in Qin Huaidao's printing factory.
"That's good. Enko has been in a few months, he has to take care of himself." Qin Huaidao rode his horse, and the two of them followed by the horse.
Soon, he arrived at Liu Pingzhong's mansion. Qin Huaidao dismounted and the family soldiers next to him led the horses for Qin Huaidao. Some of the family soldiers needed to follow Qin Huaidao in.
"Please!" Liu Xiaoyi made a gesture of invitation to Qin Huaidao. Qin Huaidao nodded and walked in.
The old man inside was also a little excited at this moment. His grandson, whom he had never met, was coming to visit him today.
He also heard a lot of horse hooves coming from outside, and knew that it must be Qin Huaidao coming. Qin Huaidao stepped over the gate and bypassed the screen wall. The old man stood up, and Liu Pingzhong and his wife and Liu Xiaoli also followed him.
"Duke Hu, this is grandpa!" Liu Xiaoyi introduced to Qin Huaidao.
"Sun'er Boping has met his grandfather!" Qin Huaidao said, holding his fists and bowed deeply.
"Hey, hey, let me see, let me see!" At this moment, the old man quickly walked to Qin Huaidao's side, grabbed Qin Huaidao's arm, helped it up, and then looked at Qin Huaidao carefully, his eyes were already turbid.
"It looks like Ping'er! It looks like Ping'er!" The old man looked at Qin Huaidao and nodded constantly. Ping'er in the old man's mouth was Qin Huaidao's mother!
"The grandson is unfilial. I have not been able to see my grandfather for so many years!" Qin Huaidao said with his fists clasped again.
"I don't blame you, I don't blame you. You are still young and don't understand those things. I'm still young. It's not easy to know your affairs. It's not easy. Ping'er and Qin Qiong know about it underground, so they should be relieved." The old man grabbed Qin Huaidao's hand tightly with both hands, very excited.
"Grandmad, come on, I'll help you in!" Qin Huaidao said to the old man, feeling very moved. He thought it was just three brothers and sisters, but he didn't expect that he could see his relatives from his mother.
"Yeah!" The old man was very excited and touched his eyes with his hands.
"Dad, come, sit inside, and you will feel relieved when you see Boping." Liu Pingzhong also said while supporting Qin Huaidao,
Soon, they arrived at Liu Pingzhong's living room. The grandfather sat in the main seat, Qin Huaidao was sitting in the second seat, and Liu Pingzhong and the others sat below. Originally, Qin Huaidao's grandfather wanted Qin Huaidao to sit in the main seat,
With his grandfather here, Qin Huaidao would definitely not go to sit there. At this time, Qin Huaidao's servants also came in with the gifts outside.
"Young Master, all the gifts are brought in." A servant came to Qin Huaidao's living room and said with fists at Qin Huaidao.
"Well, okay, go down." Qin Huaidao nodded, then turned to his uncle and said, "Uncle, this time I brought some high-quality supplements and some high-quality fabrics. If you stew it for grandma, you can make some sets of clothes for grandma."
"What are you doing when I come to the mansion?" The aunt was very happy, but she still said reproachfully.
"It should be that my mother should have made the clothes, but I have not been married yet, so I can only trouble you, aunt." Qin Huaidao sat there and said to his aunt.
"Well, okay, okay, my aunt did it myself, I did it myself." The aunt nodded immediately and said.
"Well, Boping, I heard that you are the Minister of Works now? You are so young, you are the Minister of Works?" Grandpa looked at Qin Huaidao and asked.
"Yes, the Minister of Works! Also, General Yunhui and the Chief Commander of the Left Wu Guard!" Qin Huaidao said to the old man with a smile.
"This is all civil and military positions?" the old man looked at Qin Huaidao in surprise and said.
"I was originally a military general, but I know a lot about investigating things, so Your Majesty asked me to go to the Ministry of Works." Qin Huaidao said to the old man with a smile.
"Dad, Boping knows a lot of things. Yesterday, Boping said that he didn't want to be the Minister of Works, and His Majesty refused to let him go. He also said that it would be enough to let Boping go for one or two days, unlike us. He would have to ask for leave if he didn't go one day.
And I also heard that Boping doesn’t have to go to the morning court. Your Majesty attaches great importance to Boping.” Liu Pingzhong introduced to the old man.
"Oh, there is such kindness?" The old man was even happier when he heard this, and Qin Huaidao also smiled.
"By the way, filial piety, filial piety!" The old man said and saw Liu Xiaoli standing behind him. Liu Xiaoli immediately stepped forward.
"This child is so honest. I have never seen Duke Hu!" The old man said when he saw that he was a little shy.
"Liu Xiaoli has met Duke Hu!" Liu Xiaoli said and bowed to Qin Huaidao to the end.
"Hey, get up!" Qin Huaidao stood up, knowing that this must be his cousin.
"Boping, he is your uncle's son. Your uncle has delayed his future because he has to take care of me. This child has also suffered with me. He is already twenty years old this year.
I thought that it had delayed his father and could not continue to delay him, so I wanted him to go to the capital and defect to his second uncle to see if he could do an errand in the capital!" The old man said to Qin Huaidao.
"Oh!" Qin Huaidao nodded, then looked at Liu Xiaoli carefully and found that this person was very shy, but his eyes were clear, his facial features were very upright, and his face was full of righteousness.
"Is there any study?" Qin Huaidao asked as he looked at Liu Xiaoli.
"I have read a few books when I go back to Duke Hu, but my father is mainly helping with family affairs because his legs are inconvenient." Liu Xiaoli bowed to Qin Huaidao and answered, a little nervous, but he still answered appropriately.
"Well, okay, but what do you think?" Qin Huaidao asked with a smile.
"No. This time I thought I was going to escort my grandfather to the capital, but I didn't expect that my grandfather wanted me to stay in Beijing. I was not prepared at all, and the insiders at home didn't know." Liu Xiaoli said with a shy smile.
"Why is this kid so honest? Alas, Boping, my grandfather just hopes that he can come to the capital to see the world. He can't stay in Yingchuan all the time!" When my grandfather heard him say this, he explained to Qin Huaidao.
"Well, I have no idea! If I arrived in the capital, your life was very hard in the past few years, and your salary was barely enough for you to live in a small family. Are you willing to come?" Qin Huaidao had a good first impression of Liu Xiaoli, so he thought, if you can help, please help a little.
"Ah? Really come?" Liu Xiaoli was a little surprised at this moment. The old man was so anxious next to him. Why is this child so unmotivated?
"Well, really come, are you willing?" Qin Huaidao continued to ask with a smile.
"I am willing, but my grandfather is in Yingchuan, and my father is also in Yingchuan. My father is the only child. If I am not by my side, I will not feel at ease!" Liu Xiaoli hesitated for a moment and said to Qin Huaidao.
"Haha~" Qin Huaidao laughed after hearing this. He was still very satisfied with Liu Xiaoli's filial piety.
"Grandpa is under your control, and there are so many servants in the house. In the future, if you want to make a fortune, you can also take your father to your side." The old man was anxious and said to him.
"Yes, yes, but my hometown is hard to leave. My father is almost forty years old this year. It is probably impossible to ask him to leave Yingchuan." Liu Xiaoli looked at the old man and argued.
"You don't need to be in charge of your father. The servants in the mansion will do it. As long as you have a good start, your future is enough. If your father knows that you give up the opportunity to stay in Beijing, you will be beaten to death!" The old man was so angry that he pointed at Liu Xiaoli and said, "Liu Xiaoli bowed his head and said nothing at this moment.
"Xiaoli, it may not be better to stay in Beijing than to be in Yingchuan, but if there are any difficulties, my uncle will also help. For so many years, it has been all due to the subsidies from our elder brother to make our family live a good life. Now that you are in the capital, the second uncle will definitely help." Liu Pingzhong also said sincerely to Liu Xiaoli.
"I know, my father said that the second and third uncles will definitely help me! Okay, I'll stay in Beijing! When my father is older, I can resign and go home!" Liu Xiaoli looked up and looked at Qin Huaidao and said firmly!
"Okay, I'll go to the Ministry of Works with me later. I'll arrange it. This time you serve as the Ministry of Works. You are a prosecutor of the Ministry of Works. You are a prosecutor of the eighth rank. You are in the Ministry of Works and will help me handle government affairs!" Qin Huaidao looked at Liu Xiaoli and said,
Liu Xiaoli looked at Qin Huaidao with some incomprehension when he heard this, while Liu Pingzhong looked at Qin Huaidao in shock, then stood up, bowed to Qin Huaidao and said, "Thank you, Duke Hu!"
Qin Huaidao nodded with a smile, but the people in the entire hall did not understand why Liu Pingzhong was so solemn.
However, they were also a little surprised to hear that Liu Xiaoli was an official, even if he was a senior official.
"Filial piety, do it well. Your cousin will take you personally. When your cousin is promoted, you can at least be upgraded to the sixth rank. Giving Shilang is a discontinued position. However, among the officials below the fifth rank, Giving Shilang is the most promising position. You can learn directly from the Assistant Minister. This is a position to train intermediate officials." Liu Pingzhong said to Liu Xiaoli.
"Ah? Thank you Duke Hu!" Liu Xiaoli bowed to Qin Huaidao this time.
"Well, you need to work hard. The Ministry of Works has many things and many people connect with other departments. I am lazy, so you will connect with you at that time! But you need to exercise your abilities, and read more books!" Qin Huaidao nodded to Liu Xiaoli with a smile,
He has been looking for someone like this, who has to be at ease and has some ability. Qin Huaidao feels that Liu Xiaoli is good, much more pragmatic than the brothers Liu Xiaoliang and Liu Xiaoyi.
