Being called the eldest young master is naturally the Tao family, the eldest young master of the Tao family.
The middle-aged man's name is Tao Shaozhang, the eldest son of Tao Yao, the head of the Tao family, and his official title is Shaoqing of Dali Temple.
The eldest young master of the Tao family treats a disciple with respect, so the concierge, Uncle Qin, is naturally not an ordinary person, at least not an ordinary servant.
He must be old in qualifications. Tao Yao's bookboy is proficient in boxing and has been Tao Yao's follower since he was a child. The master and servant have been together for fifty years. Qin An has watched the young masters and ladies of the Tao family grow up.
According to Qin An's qualifications, it is not a problem to be a great steward in the mansion, but not to mention a steward, even a manager needs to be knowledgeable in literature. Qin An has not read a book and cannot hold important positions, so he is equivalent to an idle staff in the mansion.
After all, the qualifications and seniority are there, and everyone in the house knows that Tao Yao treats Qin An as a "best friend", like two good brothers, so who dares to send Qin An.
But Qin An always regarded himself as a slave and had nothing to do. He would visit the door or greet guests every now and then to pass the time and make use of the remaining heat. Furthermore, there were really no servants in the Tao Mansion, just three melons and two dates.
People do everything.
Seeing Tao Shaozhang coming out, Qin An said angrily: "It's not like someone has annoyed my old servant, it's just a grandstanding person."
"Oh, grandstanding?"
Tao Shaozhang looked sideways at Chu Qing and looked him up and down.
Chu Qing couldn't bear it anymore and asked with squinting eyes: "What do you mean? After this old man said grandstanding, there are so many people, why do you look at me and the word "grandstanding" is written on my head?"
Qin An smiled and said: "It's just you two here, it doesn't matter who you look at."
Chu Qing pointed at Fu San: "Why don't you look at him?"
Fu San puffed up his chest and said, "My surname is Hua Zhong, and my name is for favor!"
Chu Qing: "..."
Tao Shaozhang raised his eyebrows slightly. When he saw Chu Qing dressed in fine clothes and carrying Fu San who looked like a member of the military, he couldn't help but ask: "What do you call this young master?"
"My surname is Chu."
Tao Shaozhang smiled: "It turns out it's Chu Shaoqing, Lord Chu..."
Chu Qing rolled his eyes and interrupted: "Not the son of Chu Shaoqing, not a relative of General Chu, and certainly not a descendant of Concubine Li. He is the son of Chu Wensheng, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, the left minister of the Ministry of Industry, yes, the left minister of the Ministry of Industry.
The son of Minister Chu Wensheng, Chu Wensheng is my father, and I am Chu Wensheng’s son!”
Tao Shaozhang looked strange: "Why are you so proud?"
"I…"
Chu Qing looked depressed. When did I become proud?
Tao Shaozhang turned to look at Qin An: "Amber, please go to the house and rest for a while. There is some stew in the kitchen..."
"Wait a minute!" Chu Qing said angrily: "Can you respect people a little bit? Why don't you just say your name and ignore me? Can you have some quality?"
Tao Shaozhang looked at Chu Qing and gave a perfunctory salute: "It turns out to be Mr. Chu. I have admired him for a long time. Walk slowly and don't see him off."
"I'm sorry..."
Fu San whispered: "Master, he doesn't treat you as a human being."
"You are with them, right?"
Chu Qing narrowed his eyes, being ignored several times, and a bit of anger rose in his chest.
Chu Qing, who looked gloomy and uncertain, finally compromised.
Cheap old man has lost his official position and made countless enemies. If he offends the Tao Mansion again, the Chu Mansion will be even more difficult to deal with. He will endure the breast hyperplasia for a while and take a step back to develop an ovarian cyst. If he is ignored, he will be ignored. Go back first and discuss it with the father.
Besides, it was a worthwhile trip. At least I bought a lot of calligraphy and paintings for zero yuan. I stopped by Qizhen Pavilion later to see if I could return the items.
Fu San saw Chu Qing angrily and persuaded him: "Master, let's go back first. Don't be impulsive. It's not worth offending Tao Mansion. Tao Mansion is just a bunch of dogs and scornful people. Go to hell and ignore them." What to do."
It has to be said that Fu San is really a qualified bodyguard. As soon as he opened his mouth, he attracted the attention of Tao Shaozhang and Qin An, who glared at each other angrily.
Chu Qing was also convinced.
With a guard like Fu San, it is a miracle that he can survive to this day.
He was now very suspicious that the fact that he was called a living beast by the people in the capital was probably due to Fusan's contribution.
As expected, Tao Shaozhang's face was full of anger: "You are a slave who speaks evil words, who can you call a dog?"
Fu San stared at the sky, pretending that nothing had happened.
He remained silent, but Tao Shaozhang pointed his gun at Chu Qing.
"No wonder there are rumors that the son of the left minister of the Ministry of Industry spends his days flying around the fish and meat village, watching his words and knowing his actions. He is really a dandy and a bad boy. He allows his servants to say evil things in front of my Tao Mansion. Tomorrow, I will definitely be in the palace. Take a copy of your Chu family!"
Upon hearing this, Chu Qing's heart skipped a beat.
According to what Dad said, the newly-appointed emperor is trying to find ways to establish the Ministry of Industry and is worried that he can't find a reason. Moreover, the head of the Tao family is the prince's junior master. If the Tao family impeaches their father, many courtiers will definitely second the proposal. By then, It would be bad for the new king to just find an excuse to take off his father's official title.
Thinking of this joint, Chu Qing gave Fu San's butt a light kick.
"If you are asked to speak, just do so. I will punish you by chopping off both of your arms when I return home."
After teaching Fu San a lesson, Chu Qing quickly handed over to Tao Shaohua: "Master Tao, don't be angry. What does he know as a guard? He is so outspoken that he can't hold back his words. Don't mind. We are just here to give gifts, really."
Tao Shaozhang is really not a person who doesn't show mercy when he is in power. Although he was angry, he just waved his hand: "Stay away from my Tao Mansion. Don't let me see you two in the future."
Chu Qing smiled and nodded.
This kind of anger must be tolerated. If it were a different life, I would have started to spray it a long time ago.
The situation is stronger than the person. His father is the Prince's Young Master, while his own father is only a minister, and he is from the Ministry of Works. After all, he is still a left minister.
In the Chang Dynasty, the right was respected, and the right was larger than the left.
Of course, let alone the left minister, it is useless even if he is the right minister, because he is from the Ministry of Works.
Chu Qing is not a temperless person, but he knows one thing very well. In this world where status is extremely strict, it is common for a quick talk to lead to the destruction of a family.
Chu Qing cupped his hands again, and just as he was about to leave, Qin An said, "Since you brought a gift, let's keep the gift."
Tao Shaozhang's expression changed, and he glanced at Qin An slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he did not speak.
Chu Qing understood instantly.
Accepting the gift made me feel at ease. Even if this matter was revealed, the people in the Tao Mansion would not cause trouble, at least not because of today's incident.
He quickly took off the six bundles hanging on Fu San's body and placed them at Qin An's feet.
Qin An looked down at the baggage with a confused look on his face.
This baggage was originally a "gift" from the shopkeeper of Qizhen Pavilion. It was made of old cloth and was dirty.
After all, buying so many at once would take a lot of time to frame them all, and Chu Qing was not particular about details, so he took some old baggage and stuffed them all in, six of them.
Tao Shaozhang was so angry that he laughed: "Where is the gift list?"
Chu Qing shook his head: "It's just some poems and paintings. It's my first time coming to my door, so I don't know what to give."
"Poetry and painting?" Tao Shaozhang's eyes showed a hint of disdain: "There are so many poems and paintings, but they are still wrapped in a baggage?"
Chu Qing didn't answer.
You don't need to wrap it up, I'll even set it with two diamonds for you.
Tao Shaozhang's face darkened again: "Mr. Chu, are you here to humiliate my Tao family? Do you really think that I dare not impeach Chu Wensheng in the palace tomorrow for his incompetence in teaching his son!"
Chu Qing took a deep breath, and there was a hint of an explosion: "Are you sick? They say you are giving gifts. Are you looking for trouble? You are wearing jk under your robe. You really thought I didn't dare to spray you, didn't you?"
It would be fine if he just scolded himself. He kept talking about his father over and over again. Chu Qing was a "newcomer here" and he really couldn't hold back his anger.
"Okay, I'll just take a look at what gift you're giving me!"
Tao Shaozhang had already determined that Chu Qing was here to cause trouble. He bent down and opened one of the bundles, and swung it hard, scattering calligraphy and paintings all over the floor.
He was about to sneer and taunt, but when he took a closer look, Tao Shaozhang was stunned.
