Qingchuan promotion rules in the backyard

chapter 112

"Ama, Erniang, brother." Mao Tongtong murmured to himself as he opened the letter in his hand.

Looking at the rambling words on the letter, Mao Tongtong smiled and shed tears again.

When he was at home, his elder brother loved to nag her more than Eniang, but it was Ama who just indulged her blindly.Looking at the letter now, she remembered the three years of carefree and extremely happy life in the Mao family.Those were the happiest three years in her two lifetimes.It is the most precious treasure in her memory.

After reading the letter three times over and over again, Mao Tongtong still held it in his hand and refused to put it down, so he heard a knock on the door outside.

"Ge Ge, Master asked you to come and have dinner." Qing Zhu said outside the door.

"Understood." Mao Tongtong replied.

She carefully put away the letter, put the bank note in the dark box next to the bed, and left the room.

"Oh, how come Gege's eyes are so swollen." Qingmei said.

"It's nothing, it's just going to have dinner anyway." Mao Tongtong said.

"It's not good for the master to see it." Qing Mei hesitated.

"Let's go." Mao Tongtong didn't care, and had already stepped forward.

Ba Ye had guessed that she would cry a long time ago, but seeing her red and swollen eye sockets, he still felt a little annoying, and said: "Everything in the letter made you cry like this."

"It's just commonplace." Mao Tongtong forced a smile, and said, "I made the master laugh."

"How long have you been away from home?" Eighth Master asked.

"It's been more than a year." Mao Tongtong said: "Last year, Ama and Er Niang sent their slaves to Beijing, and they lived in my uncle's house to learn the rules."

"No wonder, I haven't seen my family for more than a year, so I really think about it." Ba Ye nodded.

"Why did the fourth master bring this letter back? The servant's Ama is not a high-ranking official." Mao Tongtong said.Now that she was calmer, the more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong.I can only ask Eighth Master.Since fourth master sent a letter, he would definitely tell eighth master the reason.

Ba Ye smiled and said something briefly.Of course, the fact that Master Shi almost entered the fireworks place is skipped.

"It's something Amma would do." Mao Tongtong laughed, feeling warm again.In Mao Chengyun's heart, her daughter is more important than her future.

Ba Ye glanced at her, and said: "You, Ama, are rare. You are in the officialdom, and you don't want to be promoted."

"Ama often said that you can do as much as you can. You don't have to be a high-ranking official to be good. It's not a bad idea to be able to do a good job within your ability." Mao Tongtong said.

"Oh? You, Ama, are so different." Baye said.

"The servant feels very good." Mao Tongtong said.

In the eyes of most people, Mao Chengyun is stupid like this.But in Mao Tongtong's view, this is contentment and happiness.It's not that he doesn't seek to make progress, but he doesn't aim too high.

"You don't feel sorry for your Ama?" Eighth Master asked: "The fourth brother can promise to be promoted, at least he is from the fourth rank, maybe the fourth rank is also unknown. It is also a good thing for you."

"Ama made his own decision, which shows that he has a measure in his heart, and the servant will not feel sorry for it." Mao Tongtong said.

Ba Ye looked at Mao Tongtong in surprise.The thinking of the Mao family is really different from others.Is it because there is such an Ama that Mao's temperament is not to fight or grab?

After all, Ba Ye didn't ask what Mao Tongtong's Feng family wrote.But from the conversation with Mao Tongtong, Ba Ye also had a general understanding of Mao Chengyun.It can make the fourth brother deliver the letter so well, which shows that Mao Chengyun's character is still good.

"Master, servant girl, I have a request. I wonder if I can grant it." Mao Tongtong struggled in his heart for a while before opening his mouth.

"Want to reply?" Eighth Master asked.

"Master is really amazing, you can guess it right away." Mao Tongtong laughed, with a bit of flattery.

"Yes." Eighth Master was very straightforward this time.

"Really?" Mao Tongtong's eyes lit up instantly.

"I'm going back to Beijing in a few days. I'll write a reply when I get back to Beijing. I'll have someone send it back to you when the time comes." Ba Ye said.

"Thank you, servant!" Mao Tongtong was so happy that the trace of sadness in his brows and eyes disappeared.

When I returned to the capital, it was almost the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Mao Tongtong has been thinking about the reply to the family.Once back to the palace, Qing Zhu and Qing Mei were still busy packing their things, and Mao Tongtong couldn't wait to write the letter.

It's just that Wang Gege came in before her ink was finished.

"My sister is finally back, I really miss her." Wang Gege smiled.

Mao Tongtong had no choice but to put down the ink in his hand, raised his head and said with a smile, "Sister Wang's body is well? I haven't seen her in two months, and her complexion is indeed much better."

Wang's complexion changed slightly.If it wasn't for her sudden illness, how could Mao Tongtong have the opportunity to go to Chengde for her!

Seeing that she brought back a lot of things now, it was obvious that they caught the eyes of Eighth Master.

Originally, the two entered the palace on the same day. Although she got off to a bad start, she was luckier than Mao Tongtong later on.If she was the one who went to Chengde, where would Mao Tongtong be?

"Thank you for caring about me, my sister has already recovered." Wang Gege said with a smile on his face.She can go to bed when her body is healthy!I don't believe that Master Ba would spoil Mao Tongtong alone!

"My sister is so leisurely, will you practice calligraphy as soon as you come back?" Wang Gege glanced at the book case and said.

"Well, I let you practice." Mao Tongtong said casually.She didn't want to talk about writing family letters, lest Wang would feel unbalanced if he found out.

It's just that this sentence she answered casually made Wang Gege jealous.Not just jealous, she thought it was Mao Tongtong showing off on purpose.

"It's really enviable that my master personally urges my sister to practice calligraphy." Wang Gege still couldn't help saying sourly.

"This is not a good thing. Practicing calligraphy every day is very boring!" Mao Tongtong frowned and said, "I would rather not learn it."

Wang rolled her eyes in her heart, isn't this a typical example of being good-looking when you get cheap!
"Then I will tell my master next time, let the master teach me how to practice calligraphy, so that my sister can be freed, okay?" Wang said intentionally.

But Mao Tongtong said: "Okay! That's the best! You don't know how strict the master is! Every day I practice so that my back hurts!"

Wang's face changed.What is the waist and back pain from calligraphy practice, I am afraid that it is the back pain caused by going to bed every day!Didn't this stab her on purpose!I am too proud!
"The younger sister will not bother my sister to practice calligraphy today, and when my sister is free, my younger sister will come to visit." Wang stood up and said goodbye.Sitting down again, she really couldn't keep the smile on her face.

Mao Tongtong sent Wang Shi out with a smile, and when he turned around, the smile on his face disappeared.She is not stupid, she can't hear the jealousy and unwillingness in Wang's words.Hey, this is the tragedy of a man with multiple women.She didn't want to fight, but she couldn't avoid others from fighting with her.
