Chapter 628 Chapter 627

Granny Tian patted Qi Baoer's hand with a smile, "Okay, okay."

She was really bored. In the past, even though the old man was praying in the village, she was always away, but that was different. There were still a bunch of familiar old ladies in the village. After chatting with each other, one day passed by.

It's different here. After the old man and granddaughter are not at home, she is the only master. Although the people around her respect her and dare not neglect her, they don't dare to chat with her casually.

Moreover, in order to take care of her granddaughter's face, she has to imitate the style of the noble ladies in Beijing. To be honest, she is really uncomfortable and uncomfortable.

But she was unwilling to let her go back to her hometown.

She was afraid.

I was afraid that after returning to my hometown, I would suddenly hear that my granddaughter had disappeared, and I would wait for another nine years.

No matter how uncomfortable or uncomfortable, she just wants to follow her granddaughter, stare at her, and rely on her, even if her granddaughter has to leave one day, yes, you take me with you.

Isn't she just a lady, she still can't learn.

Qi Baoer didn't know the obsessions that Granny Tian had in her heart because of her nine years of absence. It's like 'I own this body, it's my duty to protect them. '.

Therefore, when she makes any decision, she will use the principle of 'guaranteeing the safety of Lao Qi's family and trying to make Lao Qi's family live better in the future', rather than the emotional bondage of blood and family.

The grandma and grandson walked slowly in the garden.

It has already entered October, and Qilin Country itself is generally northerly and colder. The sky in October has already entered the Mid-Autumn Festival, and there will be falling leaves in the garden from time to time.

"I don't know when your second brother will arrive."

Qi Bao'er stretched out her hands to pinch the fallen leaves that fell on her breasts, "And you have to wait, grandma, the second brother and the others are in the northwest, from receiving the news to returning to Beijing, it will take two months anyway, it still has to wait." It’s not stopping much on the road.”

Otherwise, three or four months are possible.

Mrs. Tian was a little disappointed, but it was okay, she hadn't seen her for so many years, and she didn't miss it for a month or two.

It is said that the essence of human beings is to eat melons. One second ago, they were still thinking about their children and grandchildren who were far away at the border. The next second, Granny Tian's conversation almost broke Qi Baoer's waist.

"Didn't you just ask Miss Gu, poor Miss Gu, her husband-in-law went back to the border within a few days of getting married, Miss Gu's belly was up to snuff, and she was pregnant right away, but she didn't know that her husband-in-law left I couldn't come back.

It was also a coincidence that within half a month after Second Miss Gu gave birth to her daughter, the news of her husband's death came back.

That old hag of the Li family is not a thing, no, the Li family is not a thing, they are all blood relatives, the daughter born to Miss Gu is still Li Baichang's posthumous son, the only blood, and they go around talking about that child Fate is hard, saying that Li Baichang's son was given to Ke by that child. "

Gu Linghua herself was the daughter of a military general and grew up in the border, but she didn't have the bad nature of women in Beijing who would swallow their anger for the sake of face. After Li Baichang was buried, Second Miss Gu made a big fuss at Li's house field, and then moved back to Yong'an Hou Mansion with her daughter and dowry.

"Alas~" Mrs. Tian sighed softly, "Although Miss Gu is out of anger, women are always treated unfairly in this world. She became a widow and broke up with her husband's family. The daughter heard that even the name It was all given by Marquis Yong'an, those ladies and ladies in Beijing treat her very..."

Although Mrs. Tian didn't say it clearly, Qi Bao'er still didn't understand.

It was nothing more than being arranged by those self-proclaimed noble ladies in Beijing.

Seeing that her granddaughter didn't respond, Mrs. Tian quietly glanced at her face. Well, her granddaughter has always been indifferent to emotions, and with her eyesight, she couldn't tell whether her granddaughter was happy or angry at all.

Silently, with a cautious tone that Si didn't notice, "Baby, grandma is going to invite a banquet on the [-]th day. Look, do you want to invite Second Miss Gu?"

The question was whether to invite her or not, but in Granny Tian's eyes, resistance was written brightly.

Qi Bao'er didn't think that her grandma was "bad" like those noble ladies in Beijing. After thinking about it, the old lady's concerns were understandable.

Gu Linghua broke with the Li family and moved back to Yong'an Hou Mansion after the Li family had a quarrel.

No matter how many reasons Gu Linghua had, or how many grievances she had suffered, in the eyes of outsiders, she was a junior who not only disobeyed her elders, but also broke up with her husband's family when his body was still alive.

This is both unfilial and unrighteous.

The old lady is just an ordinary person, so she naturally keeps her distance from an unfilial and unrighteous person.

Under Mrs. Tian's increasingly vigilant gaze, Qi Bao'er shook her head with a chuckle, "I'm not familiar with Miss Gu, but I've heard of her before. You mentioned Gu Shizi just now, so I just thought of it." her."

Call ~
With a breath of foul breath, the tense muscles on the old lady's conspicuous face loosened.

"You don't have much to do in the yamen today?" You usually go back to the mansion after dark, but the old man hasn't come back yet, but the granddaughter came back first.

"Yeah." The smile on Qi Baoer's face was more cheerful than before.

Although the old lady was not smart, she had an intuitive understanding of her granddaughter, and she was sure that her granddaughter was very happy at the moment, the kind of happy after playing a prank.

Indeed, as Granny Tian guessed, Qi Bao'er did a 'bad thing' in the Ministry of War.

how to say?

This matter has something to do with the bickering between the military generals and Hubu Shangshu that day.

Let me first talk about the procedure for the imperial court to distribute military salaries to each army and team.

It's not that the Ministry of Households gives the army such an order, but that each army reports first, how many people are in the army, whether there is expansion of recruitment, whether new equipment is added, and so on.

Of course, the imperial court issued military salaries on a fixed date, which was at the end of each year, and depending on the distance of each army's first team's garrison, it was divided into annual or three-year payment.

Regardless of the details, let's just talk about reporting the military salary.

Each army will report the changes in the generals or the desired changes to the Ministry of War half a year or even a year in advance, and the Ministry of War will send people to verify and review the real situation. , and then the Ministry of household accounting will issue the required military pay.

And in the past few days, Qi Baoer has several official documents that have been reviewed by the Ministry of War and are all true. After they were submitted to the Ministry of Accounts, the Ministry of Accounts rejected them for various reasons.

This matter is under the care of the servants in the Ministry of War, but it's not that the three servants are absent for various reasons, and now it belongs to her, the new servant.

Qi Bao'er was very eager to know about this matter, and he didn't even think that the military generals would fight against the Minister of the Household Department in the court.

So, on the first day, these documents were re-approved and sent to the household department.

Unexpectedly, the Ministry of Household Affairs was so disrespectful, and it was rejected again on the same day.

Even if she didn't focus on asking for military pay for the soldiers, she couldn't bear it if she focused on saving face.
