Chapter 597 - 302 Helping Outsiders_2
If Wu Qingshu’s vacancy is found, then let Wu Zuzhi enjoy life with his son and stop serving as an aide to Sun Tongzhi. Being an aide or an Old Master sounds decent, but it’s nothing more than pandering to others and begging for food, hardly better than being a servant.
During dinner, several people were still excitedly discussing Wu Qingshu’s wait for an official post.
Lady Wu smiled and said, "It would be best to secure an Official of Capital City so that brother and his family could live in Capital City too."
Old man Qian sneered, "Such naïveté of a woman. You think an Official of Capital City is as easy to pick up as cabbage on the street? That’s directly managed by the Emperor, under the watch of the entire Great Qian Kingdom. Do you think it’s so easily attainable?"
His words embarrassed Lady Wu to a flushed face and also made father and son Wu Zuzhi deeply uncomfortable. Qian Manjiang hastily laughed it off to smooth things over.
After dinner, Lady Wu took father and son Wu Zuzhi to Guixiang Courtyard to rest, while everyone else returned to their own quarters. However, Father Jiang kept Qian Yixiu behind. It turned out he and Grandfather Sangui wanted to discuss how to secure a position for Wu Qingshu.
Pan Yue didn’t want to go back alone and was pulled aside by Qian Manjiang, who coaxed her with a few words. Mingming secretly peeked through a gap in the door curtain and whispered to Qian Yixiu, "Sister, Daddy kissed again..."
Qian Yixiu quickly covered his little mouth and held back Jingjing, who also wanted to peek through the curtain.
Shortly after, Pan Yue, with her eyes curved in smiles, left the side room leading the two children back first.
