Chapter 61
Ling Zhu was enshrined as a baron by the emperor, and now he lives in this three-entry mansion, which seems a bit small.There are no suitable houses around Ling Zhu's house for expansion, and Ling Zhu really doesn't want to get too close to Ling Cheng's family, which will only increase trouble, so after discussing with Mrs. Dong and Qi Luo, they decided to find another house and move. it is good.Qi Luo likes the plum blossoms in his yard very much, so he proposed that the new house should also have plum blossoms.Mrs. Dong didn't have any other requirements, but this house was the first stop of their family's visit to ancient times, so they were a little bit reluctant.Ling Zhu comforted her, this house is not for sale, just treat it as another house.Ling Zhu knew that if he drew a line with Ling Cheng's family as soon as he became prosperous, it would be very controversial and harmful to him in the future in the Qing Dynasty, which emphasized loyalty, filial piety and etiquette.No one can pick out anything from a small house move, but the fourth elder brother should understand it because he is shrewd and meticulous.

Ling Zhu's family also went to Ling Cheng's mansion to greet the old lady in person, and explained to her the reason for moving. The old lady was very dissatisfied, but she knew she couldn't stop it, so she just repeatedly emphasized that more To help Ling Cheng, the brothers worked together to restore the glory of the family.Ling Zhu just dealt with it, the old lady was getting older, if she got angry with her, the trouble would be even bigger.Although Ling Cheng tried his best to win over Ling Zhu by taking advantage of this opportunity, Ling Zhu blocked them all.No matter what Ling Cheng said, Ling Zhu always emphasized that he only obeyed the emperor's orders.Looking at Ling Zhu who was so resolute, Ling Cheng couldn't help cursing secretly, what a piece of wood.But the eighth elder brother didn't fully hope that he could hold Ling Zhu, but he just hoped that Ling Zhu could lean a little bit towards the eighth elder brother.Ling Cheng wanted to wait for the eighth elder brother to ascend to the position of crown prince, would Ling Zhu still be disobedient?

It is good to have many friends. Before Dong Shi and Qi Luo could sort out their things, Ling Zhu's friends found a new house.The new house is a bit far away, but it is very close to the home of Ling Zhu's best friends Fu Cha Guangjin and Jue Luo Shuyi, and this alone makes Ling Zhu very satisfied.The new house is a five-entry house with a neat courtyard, and its structure and decoration meet the requirements of Ling Zhu's family.Ling Zhu took Dong Shi and Qi Luo Qihuan to inspect the new home, and everyone was very satisfied.Qi Luo was even more satisfied with a courtyard full of plum blossoms, and immediately decided that this courtyard belonged to him. Ling Zhu and the others looked at Qi Luo who was excitedly running around under the plum tree, and couldn't help smiling indulgently. nod.

The courtyards of Qi Huan and Liu Shi are also much larger than before, and the decorations are much more beautiful. Knowing that Qi Huan is a sensible child, Dong Shi gave him 1000 taels of silver to let him and Liu Shi choose their favorite furniture to decorate their own. courtyard.No matter what, my aunt did not treat their mother and son badly, and coupled with the deep affection between my Ama and my aunt, Qi Huan and Liu Shi also gave up. Now Liu Shi only hopes that Qi Huan can live up to his expectations. You can also have a good support.

Although everything is fine in the new house, it still needs a little renovation.In addition, it still takes a little time for Mrs. Dong to organize things, so there is no rush, and try to be as perfect as possible.

Due to Ling Zhu's promotion and title, the number of official documents he communicated increased, and the classical Chinese seemed to Ling Zhu's head to be very big, let alone writing the official documents by himself.It seems that I have to find an aide.The staff is very important to Ling Zhu, and they must not be sloppy and deal with.But it's really hard to find someone who suits you. No matter how talented you are, loyalty is a must.Ling Zhu tried several times and was not satisfied.Qi Luo looked at Ling Zhu who was frowning, and couldn't help suggesting, "Ama, what do you think of my teacher Yu Duo?"

"Yu Duo, his temper is quite compatible with mine, but I don't think he has any intention of being an official. Otherwise, with his talent and learning, he would not be an official until now, and make a living by teaching students." Ling Zhu thought about it.

Thinking of Yu Duo's high-minded and calm appearance and rich and colorful knowledge in his mind, Qi Luo couldn't help but say, "Mr. , That’s why he took the method of evasion, but I can see from his speech and demeanor in lectures that he has a sincere heart. A person like him is still very suitable to be an aide, the most important thing is that we understand him.”

Ling Zhu nodded and said, "What you said is also reasonable, but we still have to ask his opinion. But what should you do with your future courses? It's not easy to find a teacher that suits you."

"I have been taking lessons for a long time, and I have already solved the basic things. The most important thing now is to practice for a long time. Teacher Yu Duo's wife is also a talented woman. She can't help being knowledgeable, and she plays Guzheng very well. Good, very good, I can ask her for advice. Besides, you are the most important thing now, and it doesn’t matter what I study.” Yu Duo has already brought his family to the capital, and Yu Duo has only one wife and one son. The population is very simple. In addition, Mrs. Dong liked Mrs. Yu's gentleness and elegance very much, so she arranged for them to live in the mansion.Through understanding, Qi Luo knew that Mrs. Yu was actually a talented woman, so she often talked to her about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Mrs. Yu liked Qi Luo very much and answered her questions like a daughter, so the relationship between them was very good.Yu Duo once joked that his wife took away all his students.

Now that the decision was made, Ling Zhu and Qi Luo came to Yu Duo's courtyard. Yu Duo and his wife were a little surprised by Ling Zhu's visit, but they still warmly welcomed them. Here, do you want to play chess with me!" In the past, when Ling Zhu was free, he was always willing to find Yu Duo to play chess.

Ling Zhu smiled embarrassedly and said, "Sir, you don't know me yet. My chess strength is simply incomparable to yours. I came here today to discuss something with you. If you are wrong, please don't take it to heart. go."

"What's the matter? Master Ling Zhu, don't be too embarrassing. Our relationship is still good. We can talk about anything." Yu Duo said casually.

Ling Zhu pondered over and over in his heart what to say, and finally decided to say it straight, "Mr. Yu Duo, I want to hire you as my staff. I don't know what you want?"

Yu Duo put down his teacup and exchanged glances with his wife, then at Ling Zhu, who had a sincere and anxious face, and said slowly, "How did Master Ling think of asking me to be an aide?"

"To be honest, I'm a rough person. I'm really impatient with those official documents. I want to find someone to help me. I'm also a person who is content with the status quo and has no great ideals. I don't want to be entangled in those competing for fame and fortune. Therefore, it is really difficult to find a suitable staff member, you and I have similar tempers, and Mr. Yu is a talented person, so I am here to disturb you."

"Master Ling's military parade is very good. Besides, Master Ling has been promoted and conferred titles repeatedly. Yu Duo doesn't look like he has no ambition. If you want Yu Duo to be an aide, you have to ask Master Ling what he thinks." ?” Yu Duo asked calmly.

Ling Zhu knew that there seemed to be a reason for this matter, and he also knew that Yu Duo was not a gossip person, so he said sincerely, "I just do this to make my wife and children's life better, and Mr. Yu also knows that Qi Luo is the Eight Banners Show girl, there will be drafts in the future. In order to give Qi Luo a better choice, I also have to work hard as a father. I don’t have the great ideal of sacrificing for the country and the people. I just want to do my best Do something while threatening the safety of your own home. Now that the government is complicated and the elder brothers and princes are all entangled, I urgently need someone who understands to give me some advice."

"Lord Ling is too modest. Yu Duo saw that Master Ling handled it very well, that is, he showed his loyalty to the emperor without hurting the face of the elder brothers. This is indeed the smartest way."

Ling Zhu didn't expect Yu Duo to pay so much attention to him, so he couldn't help but said, "It took me a lot of energy to think of it. If Mr. Yu was by my side, I would be much more relaxed. I still prefer generals, I still have a headache about those articles. I wonder if Mr. Yu can give in?"

Yu Duo fell into deep thought after hearing Ling Zhu's words. He is also an ambitious man, but he is dissatisfied with the corruption in the officialdom, and he is a Han Chinese, so he escapes the world by teaching students.Ever since Yu Duo came to Ling Zhu to tutor Qi Luo, he has clearly felt the difference between their family. Ling Zhu sincerely loves his wife and children from the bottom of his heart, which makes Yu Duo very satisfied. Yu Duo likes Qi Luo's intelligence, hard work and thinking. He is mature and healthy, otherwise he would not have brought his family to the capital.Later, Yu Duo discovered that Ling Zhu was a man with ideas, and the ideas he came up with were often eye-catching. At the same time, Ling Zhu was also a cautious person who did not get entangled with the princes and brothers, which made Yu Duo very satisfied.Yu Duo himself is not young anymore, shouldn't he also think about his son's future?I am really not suitable for being an official because of my straightforward temper. It is also a good way to assist Ling Zhu to live up to my knowledge. With Ling Zhu's character, he will not cause any serious trouble.Yu Duo looked at his wife's concerned and supportive eyes again, and felt very warm in his heart. No matter what decision he made, his wife would always support him behind his back.

Yu Duo, who wanted to understand, stood up and came to bow to Ling Zhu and said, "Since Master Ling values ​​it so much, Yu Duo should be respectful rather than obey his orders. Please take care of Master Ling in the future."

Ling Zhu stepped forward and hurriedly grabbed Yu Duo, and said happily, "It's my luck, Ling Zhu, that you can be my assistant, sir. I will ask you to take care of me more in the future. If you have anything, you can tell me. People have a good temper.”

Qi Luo is also very satisfied with this ending, Yu Duo is knowledgeable, calm and wise, and is a good helper for Ling Zhu, "Ama, congratulations on finding a good staff member, but you snatched my teacher away, what do you want? Compensate me?"

Ling Zhu Yuduo and the others looked at the cute and coquettish Qi Luo, and said dotingly, "What compensation do you want?"

Qi Luo stepped forward to hold Mrs. Yu's hand and said, "Let's ask Mrs. Yu to continue teaching me. I like Mrs. Yu's gentleness and elegance. Besides, Mrs. Yu's talent and learning are not inferior to Mr. Yu's!"

Mrs. Yu looked at Qi Luo tenderly, and she really liked this little girl's intelligence and sensibility. Seeing this situation, Ling Zhu quickly said, "Mrs. Yu, since you and Qi Luo are very close, I will hand her over to you." After teaching, you should pay more attention!"

Mrs. Yu bowed to Ling Zhu and said, "Don't worry, my lord, I will definitely teach Qi Luo as much as I have learned." Yu Duo was very satisfied with this arrangement. There was a bright and cheerful little girl like Qi Luo by his wife's side, The wife can be happier too.
