Gu Xinian, who was very observant, naturally saw that Ye Chengli was moved, and smiled and analyzed for Ye Chengli: "Although the Ministry of Industry is rich in oil and water, it has the lowest status among the six ministries. The Ministry of War is a faction of military commanders. As my uncle was a Jinshi, go to
There is no use for it. The Ministry of Justice is hard and tiring, and it is a job that can easily offend people, so we can ignore it for now. The remaining ones are the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Husbandry. My nephew is appointed as the Minister of the Ministry of Husbandry and wants to join the Ministry of Husbandry.
It would be easiest to find a job. However, this is definitely not my uncle's ambition. It would be better to find a vacancy in the Ministry of Personnel or the Ministry of Rites."
In fact, the household department was the best choice. However, it is not a pleasant thing for the father-in-law to work under the son-in-law, and it is easy to cause gossip.
Ye Chengli also understood this truth well, and nodded reservedly: "My nephew is right. It would be more appropriate to go to the Ministry of Personnel or the Ministry of Rites."
According to his wishes, he would naturally prefer to go to the Ministry of Personnel. The Ministry of Personnel is the head of the six departments. It is responsible for the assessment and promotion of officials below the third rank, and is also the target of the officials. Serving in the Ministry of Personnel is definitely a good thing that has both face and dignity.
.But because of this, the Ministry of Civil Affairs is also the most sought-after place, and it is not something you can get into just by getting in.
In comparison, the Ministry of Etiquette is a little more relaxed. The errands are free. Come to think of it, the position Gu Xinian plans to find for him is the errand of the Ministry of Etiquette...
Thinking of this, Ye Chengli immediately smiled and said, "If my nephew has any acquaintances in the Rites Department, please say hello for me."
Gu Xinian raised his eyebrows and suddenly smiled and said, "This is a bit difficult to handle."
Ye Chengli's heart sank: "If it's troublesome, forget it..."
"Uncle misunderstood." Gu Xinian smiled leisurely: "Ding You, the Li doctor in the Ministry of official affairs, returned home, and there happened to be a vacancy. My nephew thought that his uncle would deliberately create this vacancy, so he had already informed Xie Shangshu in advance and left quietly.
.”
Doctor of the Ministry of Personnel? This is a dignified official position of the fifth rank! He was originally only a sixth-rank official. If he became a doctor of the Ministry of Personnel, he would have been promoted by one level! Generally speaking, people who are transferred from local officials to Beijing
As an official, it would be good if you can keep your original rank, but getting promoted is simply impossible!
Ye Chengli was completely struck by this sudden happiness and was speechless for a long time.
Gu Xinian was not in a hurry. He sat aside with a smile and said nothing. With such a big gift, he didn't have to worry about Ye Chengli not being moved...
After waiting for a moment, Ye Chengli responded. He looked at Gu Xinian with a look that was more affectionate than looking at his own son: "Then there is nephew Lao Xian. Just tell me how much it will cost."
Gu Xinian immediately laughed and said, "My uncle is just slapping me in the face when he says such things. These small expenses are not worth mentioning. As long as my uncle is satisfied and happy, it will make my nephew happier than anything else."
The comfort in Ye Chengli's heart cannot be described in words at all.
After this incident, Ye Chengli could not be more satisfied with his future son-in-law. Naturally, it was inconvenient to tell his father and two brothers about this kind of thing. After returning, he kept the good news in his heart for several days.
When Ye Chengli saw Ye Qinglan again, he felt more and more that he had given birth to a good daughter, and he was so gentle when talking to Ye Qinglan. Not only Mr. Xue, but also Ye Qingfu felt sour.
Ye Qinglan also secretly felt strange. Ye Chengli was usually gentle to her, but to say he was a loving father would be an exaggeration. How could he suddenly be so nice to her these days?
Of course, Ye Qinglan never imagined that Gu Xinian had secretly acted...
At the family dinner five days later, when Uncle Chang Yuan inadvertently mentioned the return of Ding You, a member of the civil service staff, Li Langzhong, Ye Chengli gave a vague hint: "I've heard about it too."
Ye Sheng was quite surprised. This matter hadn't spread yet, and even brothers Ye Chengren and Ye Chengyi didn't know about it. How did Ye Chengli know about it?
Brothers Ye Chengren and Ye Chengyi also looked over at the same time.
In such eyes, Ye Chengli felt a sense of superiority and self-confidence that he had never experienced before, and was really relieved. He pretended to smile casually and said: "When I went to the Ministry of Personnel to report on my work a few days ago, I met Gu Shilang.
I heard him mention it."
…
Everyone here has been involved in official circles for many years, how can they not understand the meaning behind the words? Their expressions are a little subtle, especially the two brothers Ye Chengren, whose eyes clearly reveal some other meaning.
Ye Sheng thought for a moment and then asked in a low voice: "Did he say anything else?"
Speaking of this, Ye Chengli had nothing to hide. He repeated what Gu Xinian said that day and added a few more words at the end: "... He only said that he would do something for me. Specific information, but also...
We’ll have to wait until after the new year.”
There was another moment of silence.
This time, even Ye Sheng looked at Ye Chengli a little differently. The doctor of the Ministry of official affairs is a serious official of the fifth rank. Such a hot position is not something ordinary people can get by looking for it. To be honest, I would like to say that
, even if he took action in person, it would not have such weight. But Gu Xinian actually made such a promise so easily!
As expected, he is a popular person in the eyes of His Royal Highness the Prince and the Queen, and his actions are extraordinary!
Ye Chengren and Ye Chengyi thought at the same time. One of them is now in the fourth-grade official position, and the other is in the fifth-grade. They are not jealous of Ye Chengli. But the condescending sense of superiority they had before has also put away a lot at this time.
.
With such a son-in-law with superb skills and a proud background, Ye Chengli's status has invisibly risen.
Ye Sheng said jokingly: "If that's the case, then I don't have to worry about your affairs." Even if he tried harder, he would never be able to get a better official position than this.
Ye Chengli smiled, not knowing what to say for a moment, and moved the topic away vaguely. The suffocation in his heart that had been held in for many years was relieved for a long time.
At this moment, a maid with delicate features hurriedly walked in, blessed everyone, and then reported with a joyful face: "Third Master, Miss Hongqiao has begun to suffer from abdominal pain."
Ye Chengli perked up: "Has the child been born yet?"
The maid smiled and said: "The labor pains have just begun. I heard from the midwives that if it is fast, the baby can be born tonight. If it is slow, it may not be until tomorrow! However, the lady said that such good news should be the first to come.
Just report it to the master, so I have the courage to come and report it."
Only then did Ye Chengli recognize that the face was Ruixue, the maid next to Ye Qinglan, and his expression became much gentler: "Sister Lan has thought very carefully, and you are also smart. When Hongxiao gives birth to the child safely, your reward will be indispensable.
"
Ruixue smiled quickly and thanked her.
After this episode, Ye Chengli had no intention of drinking any more. He took a few hasty bites and then retreated to Hefengyuan.
At this time, in Hefeng Courtyard, Ms. Xue was sitting leisurely in the main hall drinking tea, and sisters Ye Qingfu and Ye Qinglan were also accompanying her.
Listening to the faint cry of pain, Ye Qingfu couldn't sit still and muttered: "Is giving birth so painful?"
Mrs.
It was a waste of time." There was still anger in his words, and he was obviously still brooding over the complaint a few days ago.
Ye Qingfu immediately fell silent.
Mrs.
At that time, there was another difficult delivery, and the child died in the mother's womb. Later, one body and two lives were lost. It's very sad to think about it!"
Is this a sigh of relief? It’s just a cat crying and a mouse pretending to be compassionate! Bi Rong’s death back then was most likely the result of Xue’s secret handiwork. Now it’s so pretentious and pretentious, it’s really disgusting!
Ye Qinglan also sighed and responded with a sad expression: "This is because my aunt is not blessed. However, Hongxiao is healthy and strong, and she is young, so she will be able to give birth to the child safely. Mother does not have to worry.
"
Mrs.
At this moment, Ye Chengli stepped in.
Mrs.
Ye Chengli smiled and said, "I heard from the maid that Hongxiao is about to give birth, so I came back early."
Mrs. Xue's smile did not diminish, but her eyes turned cold. She didn't ask the maid next to her to announce the good news at all. Who sent the maid to deliver the letter?
Before she could finish her thoughts, she heard Ye Chengli praise her gently and lovingly: "Sister Lan is really thoughtful and considerate."
Ye Qinglan pursed her lips and smiled: "My daughter also hopes that Hongxiao can safely give birth to the child in her belly, preferably a big fat boy. My daughter will have a younger brother."
These words were in line with Ye Chengli's wishes, and Ye Chengli immediately smiled with satisfaction.
Mrs.
What was even more annoying was still behind. Ye Qinglan smiled and suggested: "Waiting here, I don't know what is going on in the delivery room, why don't I go over with my father and have a look."
"No!" Mrs. Xue objected without thinking. What if Ye Chengli goes and those midwives don't dare to take action? Of course, this reason must not be spoken out, so it is better to find a more reasonable excuse: "There is no blood in the delivery room."
Geely, men are not allowed to enter the delivery room."
Ye Qinglan responded obediently: "What mother said is that father should not enter the delivery room." Before Xue could breathe a sigh of relief, Ye Qinglan raised her obedient and cute smile and said: "However, my daughter knows that father must also be worried about Hongxiao.
How about this, the father is waiting outside the delivery room, and the daughter goes into the delivery room for her father to accompany her." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations, monthly votes, and your support is my greatest support.
