After rebirth, the Queen and I are on the run.

Chapter 624 Grandma, Go Propose Marriage

Guan Shuli smiled, took a bite of the osmanthus cake and drank a sip of osmanthus tea. In the expectant eyes of the three of them, he said the compliments they wanted to hear: "Well, the osmanthus cake is soft, sweet and fragrant, and very delicious; the osmanthus tea is fragrant and slightly astringent, which can suppress the sweet taste, and it goes well with the osmanthus cake."

After hearing this, the three little ones were happy and proud, saying, "Of course, this is made by my aunt, and even Sister Xiaomi said it's delicious!"

In their eyes, whatever Qin Xiaomi says is good is the best.

I also think that Aunt Qin is amazing because: "As soon as Sister Xiaomi says something, Aunt Qin can make the food that Sister Xiaomi says!"

As a result, they ate a lot of beautiful and delicious food.

Jiang Xiaozhu thought of something and ran to the bottom of the cabinet. After tinkering with it for a while, she took out a jar and ran towards Guan Shuli.

"Slow down, don't run, you'll fall." Guan Shuli was afraid that she would break the jar, so he hurried to catch it and put the jar weighing several kilograms on the square table: "What's the food now?"

The little girl from the Jiang family is only interested in money and food.

Jiang Xiaozhu said, "They are apricots pickled with basil. They are very delicious. If you eat two, you can eat an extra bowl of rice. Guan Shuli will take them back and eat them with Old Madam Guan."

Guan Shuli and Madam Guan were too rich and had eaten too many delicious foods, so they didn't eat much at meals and had to eat more appetizers.

"This was also made by my aunt." This is Jiang Xiaozhu.

"Brother Xiaomai's aunt will make a lot of delicious food." This is Xiao Fubao.

"Sister Xiaomi likes it, so I learned to cook it for her." This was Qin Xiaomai. She took out the bowl and chopsticks, and stood on tiptoe to pick up some basil pickled apricots for Guan Shuli.

But the square table was high, and with the jar on top, he couldn't see the apricots in the jar, so it was difficult for him to pick them up.

Seeing this, the clerk Guan picked him up, making the little guy taller than the jar, and said with a smile, "Come and hold him."

"Okay." Qin Xiaomai thought Guan Shuli was really nice, even nicer than her second uncle. She was held by Guan Shuli, and she handed him a bowl full of basil pickled apricots, saying, "Come back for more after you finish eating. We have more at home."

This?
Although it was too intimate to go to someone else's house to get pickles, the clerk couldn't refuse and smiled, "Okay, thank you very much."

Jiang Xiaozhu said: "No thanks, no thanks, this is called reciprocity. During the Mid-Autumn Festival, the clerk Guan gave us a gift."

Sister Xiaomi said that even though the Guan family didn’t give many holiday gifts, each one was very valuable…the two eight-turn eight-pattern green medicine jade lanterns alone were worth a large green brick mansion.

Therefore, Jiang Xiaozhu particularly likes Guan Shuli and his grandson. She thinks they are a gold mine that can produce gold, and she wants to curry favor with them.

"Close the clerk." Grandpa Qin hurried back after hearing the news and said to the three guys, "Go to the backyard and play. Don't run around."

"Okay, Grandpa Qin, don't worry. We can take care of ourselves." Jiang Xiaozhu patted her chest and assured him. Like an older sister, she took Xiao Fubao's hand and waved to Qin Xiaomai to leave.

The clerk Guan found it funny, but was afraid that Grandpa Qin would worry, so he immediately told him his intention: "Today, a letter came from the mountain saying that Dalang and Sanjun have joined the army, so Sanjun can no longer serve as a clerk."

Xu Sanjun didn't want to be a police officer, so he never took the exam.

"But Erjun and his men are quite capable and have helped the government a lot in the past two months. So I want to ask, Qin, Jiang, Xu, and Qiao, do you have any plans to let Xu Erjun, Qin Ying, Qin Jie, and Qiao Songguo be official government servants?"

"If you have this plan, you have to make it up... Even though there are many vacancies in the government office now, if you don't hurry up, they will be taken up soon."

There are many half-slaves among the powerful families, and they have people in every county and town. A major spy case that has happened in Baofu County for a century has been reported to the emperor. In order to gather information, the powerful families will definitely send people to the government office.

There are also big families in this county, neighboring counties, and the prefectural capital who will try to get people into the Baofu County government office... There is no other reason, there are too few positions, and only after grabbing a position can you slowly move up. Grandpa Qin: "Thank you for the reminder, the clerk, I will tell their family about this tonight, and go to the county government tomorrow, and I will reply to you the day after tomorrow at the latest."

"Okay." Guan Shuli nodded, stood up and said goodbye, took the bowl of basil pickled apricots away, and said with a smile: "I will return the bowl to your house another day."

Grandpa Qin smiled and said, "It's okay, you don't have to return it. It's just a wooden bowl, not worth much."

The clerk insisted: "You have to return it. You can't eat the food and then keep the bowl."

After saying this, without waiting for Grandpa Qin to answer, he picked up the bowl, left the Qin family, and took Youxing and Yu who were outside the door back to the Guan family at the west entrance of the town.

"You're back." Mrs. Guan felt sorry for her grandson when she saw him. "You're so tired that your eyes are dark blue. You look several years older. Why don't you take two days off and have a good sleep?"

The clerk raised his hand and touched his face: "Am I old?"

Madam Guan narrowed her eyes and glared at him: "There's something wrong with you."

"What's wrong?" Guan Shuli looked normal, picked up a basil pickled apricot and gave it to Old Madam Guan: "The Qin family gave it to me. I ate one on the way. It's very appetizing. Grandma, try it."

Madam Guan: "Going to the Qin family again?"

Shuli Guan: "There is some serious business. It's about Xu Erjun and his men going to the government office to do their work. Shuli Lu's nephew Shen Du has officially signed up to be a clerk. If the Qin family doesn't hurry up, the positions will be taken up by others."

The nephew of Lu Shuli and the newlywed husband of Miss Lu Liu was the one who sold Shendu, a grass-pulling business last year. As he had been studying since he was young and had learned how to do public service from Lu Shuli, he was recommended by them to help in the yamen when there was a large vacancy in the yamen.

Now the help has come forward.

The family of Lu Shuli and the family of Lu Fengshou were very happy because Shen Du got this good job that would provide him with a living for the rest of his life.

The family of Patriarch Lu was also very happy. After all, he was the grandson of the Lu family. Being able to work as a clerk in the government would be a help to the Lu family.

"What are you explaining? I, an old woman, go to the streets every day to listen to gossip, how could I not know these things?" Old Madam Guan felt more and more that something was wrong with her grandson.

She wanted to ask, but the clerk Guan took the basil pickled apricots to the kitchen with an expressionless face, took out a clean jar, put the basil pickled apricots into the jar and sealed it.

Old Madam Guan found the meal boring, so she asked Nanny Chen to serve the meal earlier so that her grandson could go to bed early after eating.

The grandparents and grandchildren ate dinner in silence.

"Grandma, can you help your grandson to ask for marriage in the Qin family?"

"Oh, you are too inexperienced to try to trick me." Madam Guan sneered and continued eating, saying, "I was not fooled. I won this time."

However, Guan Shuli looked up at Old Madam Guan and said solemnly, "Grandma, I am serious... I want to get married. Please help me go to the Qin family and ask Miss Qin Shu for marriage."

Bang!

Old Madam Guan dropped the bowl in her hand in shock. She stood up suddenly, propped up the dining table with both hands, stared at the clerk Guan and asked, "You, you, are you serious?!"

Guan Shuli nodded: "My grandson would not joke about such a big thing."

but……

"When did you start to have such thoughts about Qin Shu? Why did you have such thoughts? Are you not going to live in seclusion in the mountains to practice? Are you really willing to get married and live a normal life? Are you really willing to bear the fate of your future children and grandchildren? You have to think it over carefully, don't regret it halfway and hurt the girl."
