Chapter 8 Aunt's Letter (Ask for Collection Recommendation)
Early the next morning, the eunuchs in the palace came to the mansion of the Duke of Yiguo and sent 200 yuan and 50 horses of brocade silk, as well as a large number of snacks and seasonal vegetables.
Qin Huaidao is naturally thankful, and he can't go to the palace himself, so he can only thank the emperor here, and let the eunuchs see it!
After sending the eunuch away, the housekeeper of the family couldn't close his mouth happily, in just one month, the emperor rewarded him twice, and this time it was a year ago, which showed that the emperor had not forgotten the Qin Mansion.
"Okay, put it away, by the way, those vegetables, made in the past two days, give them to Jiao'er, I haven't eaten fresh vegetables for a while!" Qin Huaidao stood there and said with a smile,
However, Qin Huaidao couldn't figure it out in his heart, why did Li Shimin reward him and let the eunuch bring such words, was it to remind himself, or did he feel guilty in his heart? I don't do anything, I stay at home every day, and I rarely go out of the house!
Li Shimin actually said that he acted steadily, didn't he go to complain about grievances, that is, he acted steadily?
Qin Huaidao came to the martial arts training ground with his hands behind his back, picked up his father's relics, a pair of golden maces, and went to the middle of the martial arts training ground.
Qin Huaidao handed over the golden mace to the family soldiers, and immediately a maid came over to take off Qin Huaidao's clothes, the muscles all over his body, coupled with a slender figure of nearly 1.8 meters, were very symmetrical, as soon as Qin Huaidao stretched out his hand, the family soldiers next to him immediately handed over the golden mace.
"Whew~Whew~" Qin Huaidao began to practice with the golden mace, the golden mace and the golden gun, his father had personally instructed him before his death, even if he was sick, he would let his subordinates carry him to the martial arts training ground to guide him to practice, and at the same time, the Qin family's mental method, his father also taught him.
"Young master, the old man has really passed it on!" An old soldier stood there and said with tears in his eyes.
They all followed Qin Shubao's side back then, knowing how powerful Qin Shubao's martial arts were, and now seeing Qin Huaidao's heroic posture in the martial arts training field, they couldn't help but coincide with the shadow of the old man in their memory.
"Here come the guns!" Qin Huaidao threw the golden mace to the stump next to him, and the two golden maces flew over, and with a bang, the tip of the gong sank into the stump a few inches deep.
"Young Master, come on!" In the distance, a young and middle-aged soldier threw a gun to Qin Huaidao's side,
Qin Huaidao took it with a jump, waved the golden gun in the air, pointed to the ground, and after landing, the golden gun waved with a shining golden light.
After a set of marksmanship, Qin Huaidao put the tail blade of the golden gun straight into the ground, and the spear stood in the martial arts training ground.
The maid saw that Qin Huaidao had finished practicing martial arts, so she came over and wiped the sweat on Qin Huaidao's body with a towel, and then a maid put on a coat for Qin Huaidao, and Qin Huaidao went to the front yard wrapped in a coat.
At this moment, the two gentlemen invited by the family are also giving lessons to their younger brothers and sisters, Qin Huaidao stood there and watched for a while, and when the maid came over to inform him that it was time to bathe, Qin Huaidao went to the bathing room, lying there and thinking about things, and the maid was washing Qin Huaidao's body.
Those two maids, every time they washed Qin Huaidao, they were all red-faced, the maids were not very old, and they were all ashamed and loving when they saw Qin Huaidao's sturdy figure.
After Qin Huaidao finished washing, he went to the study in the front yard, and sat in the study to read and write!
"Young Master!" At this time, the housekeeper came in, with three old mothers behind him.
"Huh?" Qin Huaidao put the brush aside and saw that the three old mothers were holding new clothes in their hands.
"The new clothes of the eldest lady and the second young master are ready! Young master, do you need to take a look? The housekeeper smiled and said to Qin Huaidao, there were more smiles on the housekeeper's face during this time, and today the emperor rewarded him, and he didn't go down to the moment with that joy.
"Well, let's go, go to the side room, give them a try, how many sets have you made?" Qin Huaidao stood up with a smile as he spoke.
"Back to the young master, I have made three sets, and there is a cloak of coats, according to your instructions from the young master, the cloak of the eldest lady is made of high-quality fox white fur, this cloak is the most expensive, worth 10 yuan!" The housekeeper stood there, reporting to Qin Huaidao.
"Okay, let's go!" Qin Huaidao nodded, walked out of the study, and when he arrived at the side room, the two teaching gentlemen saw Qin Huaidao coming in with someone, and immediately stopped teaching.
"Excuse me, sir, from today to the eighth day of the first lunar month, you will have a holiday! During this time, you can stay in the house or go out of the house, by the way, butler! Qin Huaidao stretched out his hand as he spoke, and the housekeeper immediately handed over two money bags!
"This is the consistent money, as this young master, thank you for the intentions of the two teaching gentlemen, and I hope that I will continue to teach my younger brothers and sisters carefully in this house in the coming year!" Qin Huaidao said and respectfully handed the money to them.
"Thank you, young master, the young master has worked hard!" The two teaching gentlemen also said respectfully, they didn't dare to hold up in front of Qin Huaidao!
"Okay, the butler has prepared a gift too! Thank you, gentlemen! Qin Huaidao continued to speak respectfully.
"Young Master Xie, I'll leave first!" Mr. Teaching also knew that Qin Huaidao was looking for his younger brothers and sisters, and today he even said that this year's teaching was over, and they were also on vacation.
"Okay, there are two Lao!" Qin Huaidao continued to speak respectfully, waiting for them to leave.
"Big brother? Got a holiday? Qin Shandao looked at Qin Huaidao happily and asked.
"Well, it's a holiday, come, try on clothes, come on, take Jiao'er to try on clothes!" Qin Huaidao smiled and touched their heads and said.
"Thank you, big brother, is this a cloak?" Qin Jiao saw the white cloak at first sight.
"Well, it's white, it's not easy to wash if it's dirty!" Qin Huaidao smiled and nodded.
"Miss, this cloak is worth 10 yuan, but be careful!" The housekeeper also said to Qin Jiao with a smile.
"Well, thank you, big brother!" Qin Jiao's eyes narrowed happily, and her eyes were fixed on the cloak.
"Go try it and see if it fits, and the shoes!" Qin Huaidao said with a smile and touched their heads.
Soon, the two of them got dressed and came over, Qin Jiaohe deliberately put on the cloak, and there was a hat on the cloak, and Qin Jiao brought it all.
"Big brother, I like this!" Qin Jiao said and wrapped herself in a cloak.
"Okay, come here, big brother take a look!" Qin Huaidao said to Qin Jiao with a smile.
Qin Jiao ran over with a smile, Qin Huaidao looked left and right, and felt very satisfied.
"That's it, the cloak can be worn first, and the clothes inside can also be worn, and three sets are made, right?" The front was said to Qin Jiao, and the back was asked by the housekeeper.
"Yes, three sets, all washed and dried! The old slave personally stared at them and did this! The butler said very happily.
"That's good, just wear it!" Qin Huaidao looked at Qin Jiao and Qin Shandao with a smile and said.
"Thank you, big brother! Big brother, it's a holiday, can we go outside to play? Qin Shandao looked up at Qin Huaidao and asked.
"Yes, but, Jiao'er, don't get your cloak dirty, otherwise, on the first day of the new year, there will be no new cloak to wear!" Qin Huaidao told Qin Jiao and said.
"Good! Let's go, brother, let's go play! Qin Jiao happily pulled Qin Shandao and went out to play.
In a flash, it was Chinese New Year's Eve, after Qin Huaidao finished sacrificing to the ancestors this morning, the mansion began to prepare the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, in the evening, the three of them sat on the table of eight immortals, Qin Huaidao sat on the upper seat, the younger brothers and sisters sat on the left and right, a large table of dishes, Qin Huaidao also sandwiched dishes for the younger brothers and sisters,
After eating, Qin Huaidao kept vigil with his younger brothers and sisters in the wing room of the hall, and he had nothing to do, so he could only read.
After Qin Huaidao closed the door of the house, he ordered his subordinates to take his younger brothers and sisters to their own rooms to sleep, and he returned to the bedroom.
Early the next morning, Qin Huaidao still led his younger brother to worship, and then opened the middle door, today, there will be many guests to come to pay New Year's greetings,
But Qin Huaidao and his three brothers and sisters can't go to the New Year, originally according to etiquette, Qin Huaidao needs to go to the palace today to pay New Year's greetings, but because Ding Wei is at home, he can't go!
In the morning, there were a lot of guests who came, all of them were juniors from various mansions, and Qin Huaidao was also standing in the front hall to receive them, but they basically wouldn't sit for a long time, after all, Qin Huaidao was worried at home, and he couldn't drink, and they didn't feel interesting, just a cutscene, Qin Huaidao was busy until the evening!
On the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, Qin Huaidao was sitting in the study.
"Young master, young master, Princess Shu's hidden messenger has sent a letter!" At this moment, the butler rushed to him and shouted,
Princess Shu, Qin Huaidao's aunt, is Qin Qiong's only sister, married to Li Yuanming, the prince of Shu, Li Yuanming, the king of Shu, is Li Shimin's younger brother, of course, not a mother's compatriot, but born to the first emperor Li Yuan and his concubine.
"Auntie has written? What about the Messenger? When Qin Huaidao heard this, he stood up in shock,
In my memory, my aunt has not come back for five years, and King Shu migrated to Shouzhou in the eleventh year of Zhenguan, and served as the assassin of Shouzhou.
Until now, she has not returned to Chang'an for five years, even when Qin Qiong died, she did not come back, as a princess, without the imperial order, they could not leave the fiefdom.
"It's in the front yard!" The butler said happily,
Qin Huaidao walked out quickly, and saw a middle-aged man, with seven or eight subordinates, standing in the middle of the front yard.
"I've seen the young master, the young master woo woo~~" As soon as the middle-aged man saw Qin Huaidao, he immediately cried, Qin Huaidao remembered him, the old man of the Qin Mansion, who had married him back then.
"Get up, get up, how is my aunt?" Qin Huaidao went over and held the messenger.
"Okay, the princess has always been very good, but she is thinking about her family, after the lord is gone, the eldest lady bursts into tears when she thinks of the lord, every sacrifice day, the eldest lady always sacrifices in the direction of Chang'an! After the eldest lady learned about the change in her family, she was worried, so she dived me and waited for me to come back! The messenger said excitedly.
"Okay, okay, go back and tell my aunt that everything is fine in the house, don't worry!" Qin Huaidao nodded and said to the messenger.
"Young master, this is a letter from the eldest lady to you, and these, some gifts and supplements sent by the eldest lady specially sent by the young lady!" The messenger took out the letter and handed it to Qin Huaidao, while pointing to the two carriages behind him and said,
Shouzhou is in Anhui, and the news from Chang'an reaches Shouzhou, but it takes a lot of time, and it takes more than a month to send these gifts back.
"Yes, butler, good students! You wait a few days to rest and wait for me to write back to my aunt!" Qin Huai said the letter and told them to speak.
