Li Chengqian's learning ability is very good, although he is much worse than Su Bai, but in the level of ordinary people, he is definitely the kind of person who can be called a genius. Li Chengqian was obviously very satisfied with his progress, Su Bai looked at him a little sunny and bright, silently added a little strength, when Li Chengqian took a bath that night, he obviously found that he had a lot of bruises on his body, fortunately, there was Su Bai's special medicinal wine, and after scrubbing a few times, the traces were obviously lightened a lot.

On the steamed bun mountain, time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was already the end of the month, and Li Chengqian was going to return to the palace tomorrow, and it was obvious that the little guy's face was a little bad, and he was reluctant to make the steamed bun mountain.

I am reluctant to get up every morning, and there are small snacks carefully prepared by the cook. I am reluctant to chat with Su Bai every day and learn martial arts. I can't bear Wang Mingzhu, the little girl who already wants to babble. I can't bear it, that group of 'martial arts masters' who have been messing around all day long

Not to mention Li Chengqian, even Gonggong Qiu's interest is not high, he thinks he is extraordinary, but this kind of mansion that does not discriminate against eunuchs from top to bottom, he is really the first time he has encountered it.

Usually when he went to other people's houses, even if they didn't say anything on the surface, they were disgusted and despised in their hearts. Father-in-law Qiu has no other skills, but the ability to guess his mind by looking at his face is not ordinary, how can Father-in-law Qiu not see their careful thoughts?

But on the Mantou Mountain, whether it is the master or the subordinate, everyone is polite to him, and the gaze that looks at him is also normal, and even the eyes of many people are a little worshipful, he is very uncomfortable with this kind of gaze, or he has never experienced this kind of gaze at all.

Later, he learned that this was also one of the criteria for accepting people in the Wushuang Marquis Mansion, and he did not want any servants who discriminated against others.

Gonggong Qiu looked at Li Chengqian and Su Bai, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that the two of them seemed to be brothers, which also reminded him of his life experience.

Father-in-law Qiu also has two younger brothers and a younger sister in his family, and his parents have died early.

Life was very hard, so bitter that they had never eaten a full meal, and Qiu's father-in-law's sister made a suggestion, she would sell herself into the Qinglou, so that she would have money to feed her three elder brothers.

Father-in-law Qiu is the eldest son, and the eldest brother is like a father! Hearing his sister say this, his heart hurt as if it was a knife! He rejected the idea outright, and he went to the dock alone to fight the bag and earn money to support his family. But as if God likes to joke with the poor, under a severe cold, the second and third children all fell ill.

Father-in-law Qiu carried his two younger brothers to the hospital, but no matter how he begged those doctors, they were unwilling to treat them, and some people said that if they wanted to be treated, they could take the money first!

Where did Grandpa Qiu get the money? After my sister saw that her two brothers were sick, she was in a hurry, and she couldn't afford to be sick, and she saw that she was getting thinner and thinner day by day.

At this time, Gonggong Qiu heard others say that as long as he went to be a eunuch, he would have a settlement fee of ten taels of silver, after all, in terms of medical conditions at that time, being a eunuch was still a relatively risky choice.

In the succession of generations, being a complete man, and three lives with his younger brothers and sisters, Father-in-law Qiu chose the former!

The old eunuch who cleansed his body was very good, and first gave him ten taels of silver and asked him to go to see a doctor for his younger brothers and sisters, because if a person is clean, he will not be able to go down to the ground for a day.

After Gonggong Qiu thanked him for his kindness, he took ten taels of silver to treat his younger brothers and sisters.

With money, all the problems before are no longer a problem, and the door of the hospital is open to them. It only cost two taels of silver, and he cured the illness of his two younger brothers and sister. At this time, Father-in-law Qiu's younger brothers and sisters didn't know what kind of price their eldest brother had paid in order to treat them!

After curing them, Father-in-law Qiu told them that he was going out for a while and might not come back until late. His younger siblings didn't ask anything, in their hearts, the eldest brother was the most mature and stable person in the world! Naturally, there is no need to worry.

When Father-in-law Qiu came back, it was already half a month later, and this farewell was almost goodbye.

I remember that it was also winter, and there was heavy snow in the sky, and Grandpa Qiu couldn't remember the last time he saw such a big snow, maybe it was the last life.

Under the heavy snow, Father-in-law Qiu returned home, and when the younger brothers and sisters saw that the eldest brother was back, they were all excitedly surrounded, and the younger sister even took the vegetable basket and walked out, looking like she was going to buy vegetables.

The second brother shouted in the back, "Go buy some meat and come back, buy some wine", the little sister glared back at him, snorted and walked out of the door.

The third child's mind is much more delicate than the second, and seeing that Father-in-law Qiu's face is wrong, he can't help asking, "Big brother, why is your face so white?" Where have you been for the past half month? The second child also smiled and asked, "That's it, big brother, where are you going to go for so long, and you won't let the two of us follow."

Gonggong Qiu raised his head and smiled bitterly, and then said softly, "Second and third, I came back this time to say goodbye to you."

"Farewell?" The two brothers said in unison.

Gonggong Qiu nodded, took out another ten taels of silver in his arms, pushed it in front of the two and said, "Here are ten taels of silver, plus the eight taels of silver that were given to you before, a total of eighteen taels, you can use it to do some small business, and when the little sister gets married in the future, it will be good to have some dowry."

As soon as the third child heard Father-in-law Qiu's words, he felt that something was wrong, how could he feel like he was explaining what was going on? The second child is no matter how big his nerves are, and he understands at this time, the eldest brother is leaving.

At the moment, he grabbed Gonggong Qiu's shoulder in a hurry and said, "Big brother, what are you talking about?" The third child also hurriedly said, "That's it, big brother, what happened?" Where did all this money come from? ”

Gonggong Qiu smiled bitterly, silently looked in the direction of the palace, and said softly, "My name, I can't enter the ancestral hall now", the second child's reaction was slower, but the third child's face instantly turned pale!

There are only three kinds of people who can't enter the ancestral hall, the rebel thief, the son-in-law, and the eunuch! The third child forced himself to be calm, desperately comforted himself, and gave himself psychological hints, wanting to convince himself that his eldest brother was going to be a son-in-law.

Reluctantly pulled out a smile and said, "Big brother, you are really, such a good thing as being a son-in-law, who can hide it from your own brother?" Could it be that our brothers will be like outsiders, looking down on their sons-in-law? ”

The second child also understood a little at this time, so he stared at Gonggong Qiu quietly.

Father-in-law Qiu smiled bitterly and said, "I don't have the life to be a son-in-law."

The third child cried out as soon as he heard the wow, and the second child was taken aback, reached out and gently patted the third child's shoulder, seemingly wanting to comfort the third child, but was thrown away by the third child.

The third child knelt on the ground on his knees, kowtowed to Father-in-law Qiu with a bang, and said while kowtowing, "Brother, I'm sorry for you!" It's all my fault! It's all my fault! Brother! I'm sorry for you! ”

The second child didn't understand it at first, but after seeing the appearance of the third child, why couldn't he understand it? As I said before, there are only three kinds of people who can't enter the ancestral hall, since he is not a son-in-law, and he doesn't have the courage and ability to be a thief, what else can he be?

Only eunuchs!

The second brother also cried out with a wow, the eldest brother is like a father! Over the years, no matter what it was, his eldest brother was always at the forefront, doing the most tiring work and eating the worst meals, just to be able to pull their brothers and sisters up.

Finally, the brothers and sisters have grown up, but the eldest brother became a eunuch in order to treat them. The third child was crying, and he couldn't cry anymore, and the second child couldn't care about comforting the third child, and just like him, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

Gonggong Qiu wants to support his two younger brothers, but he has just been clean for half a month, where does he get the strength?

When Qiu Xiaomei returned home, she saw that the eldest brother was in tears, the second brother and the third brother's eyes were red and swollen, and there was still a blood stain on the forehead. What's wrong with this? It was all right."

No one answered her, and the three brothers just shed tears silently.

Gonggong Qiu took a deep breath, stood up and said, "I should go!" When Qiu Xiaomei heard this, she didn't wipe the wounds of the two brothers, and hurriedly said, "Big brother, I've bought all the dishes, and I'm in a hurry for a while, let's leave after eating."

Gonggong Qiu shook his head and said with a forced smile: "The owner is urging tightly, the eldest brother will leave first!" The second and third children cried silently, stretched out their hands to stop them, but couldn't say a word, Qiu Xiaomei seemed to feel something, and stared at the eldest brother who walked out of the yard in the snowstorm. By the time she came back to her senses, Gonggong Qiu's figure had already disappeared.

Since then, she has never seen her eldest brother again, but her family's life is getting better and better, the second brother and the third brother used the remaining silver to open a tea stall, the business is not bad, and over time it has also been counted as a little family foundation.

Qiu Xiaomei also found a mother-in-law three years later, the man is a groom, although he is five or six years older than Qiu Xiaomei, but such a man knows that he is distressed. Qiu Xiaomei's only regret is that the eldest brother did not come back on the day she got married.

Over the years, she even wondered if her eldest brother had an accident, otherwise why didn't she come back to see herself for so long, and a year later, Qiu Xiaomei gave birth to a big fat boy for her husband's family, and on the same day, a person who looked like an outsider handed over a high-quality mutton fat jade pendant to his husband's family, and said that it was given by the old man in the past!

The front of the jade pendant is carved with a gourd, and the back is engraved with Ruyi, and the carving is a little worse, and the good material is blind.

When Qiu Xiaomei saw the jade pendant, she cried silently, when she was young, her eldest brother often carved some gourds, ruyi, swords and other gadgets for her to play, this jade pendant was not given by her eldest brother, who else could it be?

But no matter how much she inquired, she couldn't find the slightest trace of her eldest brother, and over the years, she had some dead hearts.

The second and third have also become families over the years, and the words have become less and less, even when they are with her, they have nothing to say, as if they have some heavy heart, and she also understands that the second and third brothers are worried about the eldest brother.

She also had a big quarrel with the second and third brothers for the first time in her life, and she also wanted to know where the eldest brother went, what the eldest brother did, and why she didn't come home to see herself all these years! The two brothers were silent, didn't say a word, she slammed the door hard, and she was angry.

On the third day, she received news that her two brothers had sold the teahouse, took the money to the location closest to Suzaku Street, bought a small storefront, and started a new business.

She was angry, thinking that the two brothers were confused, who were the people on Suzaku Street? Who would come to your little broken teahouse for tea? She wanted to dissuade her two brothers, but what was the use? It's already happening.

The idea of the second and third is very simple, here, close to his eldest brother.

Father-in-law Qiu was stunned, his mind was full of things from his youth, intrigues, intrigues, intrigues, and intrigues, Father-in-law Qiu can live to this day, and can stand firmly by Li Chengqian's side, relying on not only luck, but also his younger brothers and sisters who support him to survive!

The second and third are already grandfathers, and I haven't dared to see them for so many years, hey, even if I go, I'm afraid they won't recognize themselves, eunuchs, the old ones are always much faster than ordinary people.

I am only fifty years old this year, but I am already as old as seventy or eighty years old.

He thought now, when he is older and the prince doesn't need himself, see if he can discuss with Wushuang Hou, come over to be the porter for Wushuang Hou, and he doesn't have much to eat, as long as he dies, he can have a straw mat to wrap himself.

Presumably, if you can die in such an environment, you can also smile at Jiuquan.

"Mr. Qiu, Mr. Qiu, tell us the story of the palace again."

Just as Father-in-law Qiu was reminiscing about his youth, a crisp childish voice sounded beside him, and when he looked up, he saw three little ones standing on his lap. The three little ones are all four or five years old. These three little guys are frequent visitors to the house, and they like to come to play on Manbun Mountain whenever they have time, and they have seen no less than seven or eight sides in the past half a month.

The eldest one is five years old this year, and the other two are four years old, and the faces of the three little ones are very similar, obviously from a family, and they are not afraid to see themselves, let alone outside, but they seem to be extraordinarily affectionate.

"Haha, it's you three little guys, you came just in time, the old man will go back to the palace tomorrow, even if he wants to tell you a story in the future, I'm afraid he won't be able to tell it."

When the three little guys heard this, they immediately became anxious, and the two younger grades were even more wow and crying, although the eldest child was also red, but he was still holding up, and said stiffly, "Don't cry!" ”

Father-in-law Qiu couldn't help but be stunned when he saw his small appearance, what a familiar picture
