After Li Qingling finished fighting with the old man, she walked into the room slowly.
The old man held Li Qingning with one hand and Liu Zhirou with the other, and followed inside with a smile.
He sat on the chair and looked at Liu Zhimo, and patted Liu Zhimo's shoulder in relief, "Good boy, I didn't disappoint Grandpa." He received a letter from Li Qingling, and when he knew Liu Zhimo's grades, he I was so happy that I didn't fall asleep all night.
This spring, as long as Liu Zhimo performs normally, he will definitely pass the Jinshi examination.
If others knew that he had such a promising grandson-in-law, how much would they be jealous of him
Especially in front of those old guys, he has even more face.
Liu Zhimo smiled, and said a word of luck modestly.
There are people outside the sky and people outside the sky. He will not let himself relax in his studies just because of such a small achievement.
He has so much to learn!
Seeing that Liu Zhimo didn't look proud and complacent, the old man nodded in satisfaction, "I'm going to prepare for these two days, grandpa will take you to visit Mr. Luo." Friendship, wanting to meet Mr. Luo is really more difficult than going to heaven.
"Grandpa, are you talking about Luo Bin, Mr. Luo?" Liu Zhimo looked at the old man excitedly. Mr. Luo is famous all over the country. Even if he can't be his disciple, he can gain a lot by giving him some advice.
The old man nodded and said, it was the world-famous Mr. Luo.
Seeing Liu Zhimo's excitement, the old man vaccinated him first, "Mr. Luo is very strict in accepting disciples. Many princes wanted to worship him as a teacher, but he directly rejected them. Zhimo, you have to be mentally prepared." "Mr. Luo is not afraid of power at all, and even the emperor can't force him to accept people who don't meet his requirements.
I heard that Mr. Luo would not have accepted the prince if the prince hadn't been talented and smart.
Liu Zhimo smiled calmly, and said that he knew it, he just wanted to see Mr. Luo, and he didn't ask for anything else.
"Okay, grandpa will post a message to Mr. Luo to see if he will be home tomorrow?"
"Thank you grandpa."
The old man waved his hand, "Why are you being polite to grandpa? Are you so out of touch?" After finishing speaking, he heard a grunting sound in his ear. He followed the sound and saw Li Qingning clutching his stomach and looking at him shyly. Laughed loudly, and patted Li Qingning's head, "It turns out that our little Ningning is hungry, blame grandpa, forget about this, bear with it, grandpa will send someone to bring the food."
Li Qingning blushed, scratched her head with her little hand, and smiled at the old man.
I really didn't eat anything today, I was already hungry.
The old man raised his voice and told the butler to ask someone to bring the food. His precious granddaughter was hungry.
"Xiao Ling, I'll tell the butler to ask Ya Xingzi to bring some people over tomorrow. You can pick them out. I thought you hadn't come yet, so I didn't make any arrangements. I'm afraid you might choose someone who doesn't suit your wishes." He and Dahe used to be the only two people in the family. , I don't want to buy so many servants to raise at home, I feel that it is a waste of money, now that Li Qingling and the others are here, this sum of money cannot be saved.
No matter how much money he spends, he can't wrong his grandchildren.
Li Qingling nodded without any objection and said yes.
Do as the Romans do, no matter how unwilling she is to be served, she has to get used to it.
"Old man, please tell me about the capital city so that I can get acquainted with it. In two days, I will find a shop and prepare to open it."
In this unfamiliar capital, she had to explore the way first.
Upon hearing this, the old man asked her what shop she wanted to open
"I originally thought about opening a roast duck restaurant, but after I came here, I thought I should do a market research first, and then think about it carefully. What kind of restaurant do I want to open?"
The capital here is more prosperous than she imagined, so she had to slow down and investigate first.
The old man frowned, and knocked on the table involuntarily with one hand.
Seeing his appearance, Li Qingling pursed her lips, "Old man, what's the matter? Is there any difficulty?" Is it still restricted to open shops here
The old man stretched out his hand to tangle his beard, glanced at Li Qingling, and cleared his throat a little embarrassedly, "Actually... Actually, I don't know much about this. I'll ask the housekeeper to tell you about it after dinner." As an imperial doctor, he is either in the Imperial Hospital, or he is helping people treat diseases. How could he have so much time to learn about the market in the capital
If you ask him about the gossip in the capital, he can tell her for three days and three nights.
Ahem... It's not his fault, he doesn't want to hear those gossips, but when he goes to someone's house to help them see a doctor, those gossips involuntarily float into his ears, and there is nothing he can do about it.
He glanced at Li Qingling again, thinking whether to tell her something about the private affairs in the back house, so that she would be more vigilant when interacting with others.
"..." Li Qingling twitched the corners of his mouth speechlessly. He thought the old man would know, but he didn't know
"Old man, you have been in the capital for so long, is it for nothing?"
"I'm very busy, how can I have time to inquire about these things?" The old man glared at Li Qingling pretending to be dissatisfied. He really didn't want to hear a good word from this girl, "Who made you ask Mine, if you had told me before, I would have helped you to inquire about it."
However, this is also what he thought was not thoughtful.
"All right, all right, I was wrong, I was wrong, I didn't tell you earlier."
"Hmph...that's about the same."
Li Qingling: "..."
At this time, the housekeeper and his servants stood outside the door with the food, and called out respectfully, "Master, the food is here."
The old man flicked his sleeves, immediately put away his arrogant look, and said in a calm voice, bring it in.
Seeing the old man's changed expression, Li Qingling twitched the corners of his mouth wordlessly, thinking that the old man was quite good at pretending, and he could fool people by pretending.
If the housekeeper and the others saw the old man's childish appearance just now, their jaws would probably drop from fright.
After putting away the ten dishes and one soup, the butler went down, and asked the servants to stand aside, ready to serve Li Qingling and the others for dinner.
The old man was afraid that Li Qingling and the others would not be used to it, so he waved his hands to let the servants go down.
As soon as the servant left, Li Qingling took a fancy to the old man and teased, "Old man, I never thought you would be so extravagant." How many of them are there? How could it be possible to finish these ten dishes and one soup
The old man knew that Li Qingling and the others were afraid of wasting it, so he explained with a smile, "It's not like this usually. Grandpa is very happy that you are here today, so I have to celebrate." He usually only eats two dishes for himself, and he won't let Many people do, "What kind of food do you like to eat in the future? Just go and tell the kitchen to cook, you know?"
Upon hearing this, Li Qingling felt a warm current in her heart, and shrugged her shoulders to the old man, "Then thank you, old man." She told the old man to grab some food, "There are so many dishes, the old man should eat more, don't waste it."
Looking at the bowls that piled up into a hill, the old man looked at Li Qingling indulgently, and said with a big smile, "Okay, grandpa, eat more, and you too, don't be polite to grandpa, eat as much as you want." Said When it was over, he buried himself in eating.
He didn't let Li Qingling and the others see his red eyes. He thought that he would end up alone in this life, but he didn't expect to meet Li Qingling and the others, so that he could enjoy the blessings of children and grandchildren when he was old.
God still treats him well.
Seeing how delicious the old man's food was, Li Qingling and the others also lowered their heads and started eating.
Li Qingling and the others were also really hungry. At this time, the dishes and soup were all done by them.
When the servants came to clean up the dishes, they were shocked when they saw it. It was unexpected that the new lady and the others had such a good appetite that they finished so many meals.
This is too scary, right
The old man slumped on the chair, touched his protruding belly, and let out a soft sigh, he was exhausted.
When he was with the children, he was so happy that he accidentally got stuffed up like this.
He looked around and saw that Li Qingling and the others were all slumped on the chairs, and there was a smile in his eyes. It wasn't just that he was full, but the children were also full.
"Walk, walk, I'm going to collapse on the chair, let's go for a walk to digest food."
The old man stood up, pulled up Li Qingning and Liu Zhirou beside him, and led them to the door.
Seeing Li Qingling and the others, they quickly stood up, followed behind, and went to the garden to eat.
"Ayan, come and tell Missy about the capital city." The old man went outside and saw the housekeeper, beckoning to him.
The housekeeper said yes, walked up behind Li Qingling respectfully, and asked what aspect of the capital Li Qingling wanted to know about
Li Qingling was not polite to the housekeeper, and asked her directly what she wanted to know.
As expected of a housekeeper, he could speak out clearly what Li Qingling asked.
After visiting the garden twice, Li Qingling had a general understanding of the capital.
She smiled and thanked the housekeeper.
The butler bowed slightly, "Miss, what else do you want to know? Just come to find the old slave, and if the old slave knows, he will tell the miss truthfully." From the conversation with Li Qingling, he found that Li Qingling was not like She was a village girl who came from the countryside. Even he couldn't help admiring her knowledge and demeanor.
Besides, the old man valued this young lady very much, and just because of this, he couldn't despise the young lady.
"Okay, thank you Uncle Housekeeper." Li Qingling could keenly feel that the housekeeper's attitude towards her was more respectful, and she smiled with the corners of her mouth pulled. Sure enough, if you want to gain a foothold quickly, you need to show proper strength .
Otherwise, others will think you are easy to bully!
The butler said that he dared not take it, and bowed his body down.
Li Qingling nodded her chin, and decided to take Zeng Tietou out for a stroll tomorrow morning, to find out for herself.
What she learned from other people was different from what she learned from herself. If she didn't know it herself, she wouldn't be able to open the shop.
