Chapter 61: Tao Qian

It's been so many years, and it's rare to see his grandson, so Tao Qian is very happy, and the whole person is smiling.

Tao beside him saw that his old father was happy, and he also put down the shelf he had held for a long time, and accompanied Tao Qianle to get up.

"Among these grandchildren of mine, you are the youngest of your brothers, but they are talented and intelligent, with good character, and they are not contaminated with the squishy atmosphere of his elder brothers. The old man was old, and when he saw his promising grandson, he couldn't hide the joy in his heart, and hurriedly ordered the people behind him to carry out the gift he had prepared for Jiang Zhiming.

After Jiang Zhiming ordered the stone to take the box, he opened it and saw that it was a box full of Chengxin paper, and two layers of lake pens were also laid on it. The number of these Chengxin papers is definitely not small, and there should be ten knives.

Jiang Zhiming took out a piece of Chengxin paper from the box, touched it, and found that the texture was far better than the Chengxin paper that Gu Yutang gave him before, such a good Chengxin paper is already rare in the world. His grandfather gave him such a gift, which was too precious.

Seeing Jiang Zhiming's stunned look at the box of Chengxin paper, Tao smiled faintly, "The things your grandfather gave you are far more than that, and there are more to come." ”

"Mother? What else? These are valuable enough, where can I still accept so many things from my grandfather, as the so-called merit is not rewarded, please ask my grandfather to take these things back! Jiang Zhiming said, and put the piece of Chengxin paper that he had just pulled out back into the box intact.

"Silly boy, since your grandfather gave it to you, you just need to keep it carefully. Your grandfather's most painful thing is your grandson, in the future, when you are admitted to the Jinshi, when you shine on the lintel, your grandfather can also smile under the nine springs. Tao Shi said, glanced at Tao Qian, who was sitting on the high seat, and sighed several times in a row.

Tao Qian has passed the year of the sixtieth year, and the doctor came to take a look, saying that there are not many days left, so let them make plans early. That's why Tao asked Jiang Zhiming to come back to see Tao Qian, and the old man could be happy when he saw his grandson, at least before leaving.

Just as they were talking, a little maid had already walked out with a black lacquer and gold box, and then handed the box to the stone behind Jiang Zhiming, and the stone opened the box, only then did he know that the box was filled with Duan Yan, and there were a lot of them, and the workmanship looked good, and these Duan Yan on the market were worth at least a few ingots of gold.

After Jiang Zhiming took these gifts, he immediately kowtowed to Tao Qian, and then said: "Grandson thanked his grandfather for his grandson's descendants, and his grandson will definitely use these things given by his grandfather to inscribe the gold list and glorify the lintel!" ”

"If you can have a motivated heart, I will be satisfied. A few days ago, I heard your mother mention it to me, saying that she promised Mu Xiaojun of Lijiang Mu Wangfu to be your wife, but you refused to agree to anything. Is there such a thing?" Although Tao Qian was supported by two children, he was still trembling when he walked.

Tao looked at it, inevitably a little worried in his heart, and hurriedly stepped forward to help.

"My grandson doesn't like the little county lord of Lijiang Mu Wangfu, I haven't seen her or her, how do you know if she is beautiful or ugly? Is character good or bad? If we marry blindly and dumbly like this, how do we know that we will definitely be as deep as the sea? I didn't want to lose Lord Mu, so I asked my grandmother to call the shots for me. Jiang Zhiming had already been personally helped up by Tao Qian, and then said word by word to his ear.

"I know all these things, but I can only blame your mother for being too anxious for your marriage. Among these grandchildren of mine, you have not yet married, and your mother is so eager to force you to get married, the original intention is also to make me happy. But if I sacrifice my grandson's life's work to make my old man happy, I don't think it's necessary. "When I live to this age, I can naturally see everything very clearly.

Tao also knew that Tao Qian didn't have much time, so he went to Lijiang to be hired, wanting to settle Jiang Zhiming's marriage as soon as possible to make Tao Qian happy.

"Where in this world is there anything that has the best of both worlds? Although the little county lord Mu was born in the hereditary Mu Wangfu, after all, so many years have passed, and the door of the Mu Wangfu has long been crowded, and it is no longer prosperous. However, Lu Liangwei's Yang family, Ruan family, Jinping's Fan family, these three families guard the shadow seal of their ancestors, and there are so many scholars in the family, and the girls who marry are not much worse than those from the palace. ”

Although Tao Qian stayed at home, as the governor of Yunnan sent by the imperial court, he naturally had some understanding of these old families in Yunnan.

marrying these families will be of great help to Jiang Zhiming's career in the future.

"Lu Liangwei's Ruan family has long been defeated, and now they are guarding the archway of the ancestor and the first. It's the Yang family and the Fan family, but they are still in full swing over the years, but it's a pity that there are no suitable girls in these two families, even if they do, my brother Zhiming may not like it. Tao personally held a cup of tea and sent it to Tao Qian's side.

"Grandfather, I like the three girls of the Gu family, I like her as soon as I see her, if my grandfather and mother insist that I marry someone back, the person I would rather marry is the third girl of the Gu family." Before Tao Qian could drink the tea, Jiang Zhiming said everything in his heart.

He had already thought about it when he came over this time, since Gu Yutang liked to torture people so much, instead of letting him out to torture others, it was better to marry him back, so that it would be good to torture each other.

"The third girl of the Gu family? Is it the Chengjiang Gu family or the Shiping Gu family?" Tao Qian didn't know which girl Jiang Zhiming was talking about, and he knew that there were two famous Gu families in Yunnan, so he asked.

"My grandfather is Gu Yutang, the third girl of the Gu family's Gu family in Chengjiang. When I went to Punpu to meet my second grandmother a few days ago, I saw her, and as soon as I saw her, I liked her in my heart. Don't know why? When Jiang Zhiming said this, he acted like an ignorant child, amusing Tao Qian next to him, but Tao's face on the side was angry.

"Chengjiang's Gu family? That's a businessman's house! There is no one who is an official in the imperial court, you married a girl from their family, and you have no help in your career. Such an influential person is that I have lowered my standards, and I will not choose it. When Tao heard Jiang Zhiming's words, she was so angry that she was so busy drinking a cup of tea at the moment, suppressing her shock.

"The girl from the Shangjia family is not bad, if you know that Brother Ming really likes it, it is okay to marry her back and be a wife. Mrs. Yang Lin is my old acquaintance, her brother is still the Marquis of Dongchang, the Zhengding Lin family in Yunnan and the Dongchang Lin family in Xi'an are still relatives, presumably the girl taught by Mrs. Lin herself will not be so bad?" Tao Qian stood for a long time, but he couldn't stand anymore, and as soon as he sat down, he began to gasp for air.

"If she was born in the Dongchang Hou Mansion or the Zhengding Lin family, I might let her in, but she was born in the Chengjiang Gu family, which is a merchant family, how can I let my baby son marry a girl from such a family? Father, help me persuade Zhiming! Tao knew that he was not his son's opponent, so he wanted to ask Tao Qian to come forward and let Jiang Zhiming die in the name of his elders to marry the Gu family girl.

"Ruolan! You've lived so long ago, it's long overdue to put your hands down. Brother Mingming is not a child, he knows what he wants and what he doesn't want, so you don't have to force him anymore. Tao Qian looked at Tao, and there were bursts of sighs in his heart.

Tao has been married to a wife for so many years, and she is the mother of two children, and she still doesn't know the reason to let go of her children and break through.

Raised in this way, sooner or later, the child will be raised into a canary in a cage, and it will not be useful.
