As Liu's mother thought, the emperor is indeed optimistic about Liu Haoqiang, not only brave and good at fighting, brave and strategic, but also very feeling for firearms, not long after he first came into contact with the musket, he dared to put forward several suggestions for improvement to Yun Deqing.

Although Yun Deqing can also use muskets, he is not good at it, but he believes in Liu Haoqiang, because he is the person in the musket team of the Northwest Army who uses the musket to make the best in the shortest time.

Yun Deqing wrote Liu Haoqiang's suggestion and sent it back to Beijing, the emperor did not know Liu Haoqiang, but he believed Yun Deqing. The manufacture and transportation of firearms was the overall responsibility of Shujie, and the emperor also gave these suggestions to Shujie.

Shujie went to the secret base and consulted with the three master craftsmen for a night, and the masters agreed that these suggestions were very useful to help the soldiers master the skills more quickly and aim more accurately.

The emperor is overjoyed, talent! Muskets and ammunition are now manufactured in limited quantities, and the soldiers who use muskets are selected from the major armies, so it is important that they can get the most out of their muskets.

When Yun Deqing recommended Liu Haoqiang, the emperor asked Youming to investigate Liu Haoqiang's family background and various information, and then asked Yun Deqing to find a suitable opportunity to send Liu Haoqiang to Beijing (allowing him to bring his parents).

Yun Deqing knew the meaning of "bringing his parents", but Liu Haoqiang didn't know what he said (even if he heard about it, he didn't dare to think about it), Yun Deqing just told him that because of his merits, the imperial court gave him a subsidy to let him take his parents to Beijing to visit relatives (Liu Haoqiang's uncle's family is in Jincheng, close to the capital).

It wasn't until he entered the palace to meet the saint and talked for more than an hour that the emperor personally told him that he would let his parents stay in the capital and that the court would give subsidies. Liu Haoqiang dared to believe the fragmentary information and speculation he heard in the army.

Liu Haoqiang was very happy and excited. No one who has no intention of rebellion will see this as "holding hostage". will only see the glory given by the imperial court and their own development prospects.

For Liu Haoqiang, since his uncle's family moved to Jincheng, his father and mother are not very used to being in Ancheng, just because he is in Ancheng. And he is in the army, so he can't take care of his father and mother at all. Relying on his little military salary and the money earned by his father's part-time work, their life in Ancheng is not very stable.

Staying in Beijing is different, not to mention the monthly subsidy given by the imperial court. But my father and mother are all thrifty people, and it is no problem to rent a small courtyard to ensure food and clothing. His military salary was saved, and he sent it back to Beijing once a year and a half, which could also make his father and mother more comfortable. Besides, my uncle's family lives close, and I will often come over to take care of it, and from Jincheng to the capital, the carriage only takes more than three hours.

More importantly, it means that the emperor and the general trust and value him. Prepare to train and promote him. Liu Haoqiang joined the army with a dream of being a hero and a general, which good man does not have the dream of making meritorious contributions and glorifying his ancestors?

What makes Liu Haoqiang more assured is. Now General Yun insists that his father and mother live in the General's Mansion, and he is really uncomfortable living in Zhuangzi, and helping the General's Mansion to take care of Zhuangzi will offset the rental fee of the small courtyard in the Zhuang, and a small piece of land in the small courtyard will be used by them to grow vegetables for themselves.

Liu Haoqiang's family went to Zhuangzi to see, just in the suburbs, the small courtyard is not big, only three rooms, but it is enough for Liu Lao and his wife, even if his uncle comes to visit, there is also a house to live. In addition to growing vegetables in the yard, you can also raise a few chickens and one or two pigs, which makes Liu's mother very happy, such a good condition, they can save more silver, and buy a yard in the city in the future and marry a daughter-in-law.

Liu Lao Er said to his son excitedly: "The emperor and General Yun value you so much, Daqiang, you must work hard, don't worry about us, kill more Turkic devils and make more meritorious contributions, but must be extra careful to know the way?" If you have free time, don't follow those old oil soldiers to messy places, practice more, and only when you have good skills can you ensure safety and kill more enemies. ”

When he was in Ancheng, Liu Lao Er heard that many soldiers in the army went to visit the building after taking their salaries, and his son wanted to marry a daughter-in-law seriously. Now that the distance is far away, he can't keep an eye on it, so he can only remind him first.

Liu Haoqiang is also eighteen years old, and it is inevitable to hear those things in the army, at this time, his father warned him face-to-face, and his face turned red: "What do you think, Dad, my son has to kill more enemies to repay the grace of the saint, repay the general's knowledge and kindness, how can I have the time and spirit?" Don't worry, Dad, I will send the money back to you when I have the opportunity, and I won't go to that kind of dirty place with a copper plate. ”

Liu Lao Er nodded with satisfaction: "It's good that you know it in your heart, you don't need to send it back, we are now stained with the light of the General's Mansion, your mother raises chickens and feeds pigs, I grow vegetables, and I can also weave some bamboo baskets to do some carpentry or something, and I can even save the subsidies given by the imperial court in the future." ”

As long as the son is safe, he will marry a good daughter-in-law in the future, and even the son can make more military achievements to glorify his ancestors, and their old Liu family can be regarded as an ancestor of virtue.

Liu Haoqiang accompanied his father and mother to Jincheng, and helped them open the vegetable patch in the yard, trimmed the pigsty and chicken coop, and prepared to return to Ancheng to return to the team.

Before leaving Beijing, Liu Haoqiang went to the general's mansion to resign, and he also had to take the things that the general's wife brought to the general.

Coincidentally, as soon as I arrived at the gate of the General's Mansion, I saw the carriage of the Lianghou Mansion arrive, and the carriage entered the gate, and it was Shu Yao and a girl who looked a little smaller who got off the car.

Liu Haoqiang hurriedly stepped forward to salute, Shu Yao smiled and said: "Great, Brother Daqiang, you haven't left yet, I prepared a box of standing medicine for my second uncle, and I want you to take it to the northwest, I just heard from my eldest brother in the morning that you set off today, and I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up." By the way, Xiutao, this is Brother Daqiang, how about it, you can't recognize it at all, right? ”

Show peach? Liu Haoqiang was stunned, that small, round-faced little girl back then? At that time, he and his father went to the Xia family's courtyard to pick up ginseng tablets, and a little girl of four or five years old welcomed them in, and the sweet and pleasing smile made the father and son relax a little and not be so nervous. He still remembers that a little girl in the neighborhood called her away, and he remembered the name: Xiu Tao.

Before leaving, Xiu Tao smiled at them and said, "Uncle, brother, you sit and wait a while, Sister Erniu is going to call the eldest young master and the girl." ”

Later, the family went to the summer house to say thank you and leave, and Xiutao was the first to see them welcome in, and obediently asked Hou if his mother was well.

At that time, his mother sighed with emotion, this little girl is really like his little sister who died early, with a round face and round eyes, and two round dimples, cute and pleasing.

Now, the little girl has grown up, and she will definitely not recognize it when she sees it on the road, but ......, she is still round face, round eyes, and round dimples, which are still cute and cute.

Xiu Tao reacted the same as Shu Yao that day: "Wow, Brother Daqiang, how did you become so tall?" "Shu Yao's three siblings are also tall, and she has been the shortest since she was a child, so she is really frustrated. In fact, Xiutao didn't have any image of Liu Haoqiang, she was too young back then, but when Shuyao told her that day, she vaguely remembered a black, thin, and little brother.

Liu Haoqiang smiled: "Isn't a man tall when he grows up?" Most of the girls' families are petite and delicate. "The tall ones are tall and good-looking, but he still likes to be so petite and delicate.

Liu Haoqiang was taken aback by his own thoughts, when will he think of what he likes or dislikes about other girls? Uh, it must have been after his father warned him two days ago, and he heard his father say that his daughter-in-law is not a daughter-in-law, and now his mind is messed up.

Xiu Tao pouted: "Brother Daqiang doesn't need to comfort me, my mother said that she and my father are not tall, and it is already the blessing of Sister Yao'er that I can grow up like this (since Aunt Mei officially recognized General Yun and Mrs. Yun as her father-in-law, the three brothers and sisters of Shujie will not let Xiu Tao call her uncle, second master, and girl, and change her name to brother and sister), at least higher than my mother, hehe, my mother is right, I should be content." ”

Shu Yao and the few maids who followed behind the two all laughed, and Liu Haoqiang also laughed. However, he really thinks that Xiu Tao is very good-looking like this, and she is different from the Lord of Fuxing. (To be continued......)
