382 Chapter 382
Cao Guangqi's life can be said to have made no achievements, In the past, he could still complain that because it was a concubine, his father always didn't pay attention to it, but in this life, it seems that he can't even complain about this.
Everything is fine in the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion, but because the Marquis of Wu'an has been beheaded and the title of the other party's Marquis Mansion has been deprived, this Marquis Mansion is naturally not something they can live in anymore, and the family will fall apart immediately, Because there is no capable housewife, everyone will find their own way.
Cao Guangqi came back late, he personally used drugs to stun his father and sent him to Shangguan, speaking of which, it is equivalent to him personally sending his father to the guillotine, which is somewhat unbearable, but thinking of the previous life, why didn't this father personally send himself to the guillotine?
A drink and a peck, as if it were determined by heaven. Maybe the repetition of this life is just to give yourself such a chance.
It seems that there was a matter, and he was forgiven by the emperor, Cao Guangqi walked unhurriedly to Beijing, and when he arrived in Beijing, he learned that the Hou Mansion had been sealed, Only then did he think of his aunt, and asked his brother again, only to know that his aunt seemed to have been taken away by Cao Zhi.
"Cao Zhi?" Cao Guangqi was a little confused, Who is this name?
The elder brother's gaze was complicated and difficult to discern, and he still asked him: "Don't you even know what the stand-in for yourself is called?" He is now the master of the Royal Taoist Temple, and if something happened at that time, if it wasn't for the confession excerpt he wrote, I'm afraid we wouldn't have survived, and the Hou Mansion was sealed, and most of the people were taken away by him. โ
In fact, if it weren't for the other party's elixir, I am afraid that he would not have such a face in front of the emperor and let the emperor let them go gently.
"Just go and look for it, he won't hold a grudge against you. โ
Cao Guangqi was said to be a little embarrassed, he actually heard it, his brother was a little resentful of himself, for this brother, on the one hand, he felt that he had a clear conscience, didn't he also exchange his life with a stand-in in his previous life? Or the same stand-in, he did it, he just did the same thing, what is there to feel guilty about it?
But in this life, it's different. Anyway, he was grateful to be able to help pick up his aunt after something like that happened.
"Thank you, brother. After saying this, Cao Guangqi looked up again and saw his brother striding away, "We are going to leave the capital, I'm afraid we won't see each other in the future, so you can do it yourself." โ
Wu'an Hou's so-called family property was gone, only because when the Hou Mansion was sealed, the people who came to hinder Cao Zhi's face were polite, and they were able to have a little bit of property, but now they can't take care of others, so naturally they won't give it to Cao Guangqi.
Cao Guangqi didn't expect this for a while, he came with the team entering Beijing, and naturally he didn't have to worry about the cost of the journey as a young master on the way here, but he would live in the future...
The Royal Taoist Temple is not open to the public, but after Cao Guangqi informed his name, he saw the aunt who was sent out, and the maid who used to serve by his aunt's side.
"Son, you're back!" the aunt burst into tears when she saw him, and grabbed his arm so tightly that it hurt him.
"Our viewer said that Cao Gongzi can go by himself after picking up someone, and the viewer is no longer in the red dust, so there is no need to meet and add more troubles. Xiao Daotong said it with a straight look, and it was very cute to pretend to be serious, but this sentence was clearly a sign of grace.
Cao Guangqi was just silent when he heard it, what happened before was that he couldn't live with the other party, but at that time he didn't know that the other party was actually his brother!
Thinking like this, I feel that I haven't actually done anything, anyway, it's not me, he will also be his brother's substitute ghost, it's all the same, at least if it's himself, isn't he not dead?
My aunt was taken out, but she didn't have much money on her, all of which she had saved over the years, and it was not enough to buy property in Beijing.
The aunt from a small family wants to go back to her hometown to live, Cao Guangqi has nothing to do, he knows that with the rebellion of Wu'anhou, he, the son of Wu'anhou, will not be reused no matter what he does in the future, and the scientific examination will not be successful, it is better to be a rich man honestly.
But it is also very difficult to achieve this goal, my aunt has been away from home for many years, and there are no relatives in the countryside for a long time, knowing that they are down, they don't even have a thatched house, and between words, they are afraid of being involved with him, the son of a rebel.
Cao Guangqi has never received such treatment, even after he surrendered, those people in the army did not dare to be so disrespectful to him, but now they have to endure it one by one.
It was easy to find a dilapidated thatched hut to live in temporarily, but there were other problems in the face, bought land but couldn't farm, bought cattle and didn't know how to drive, during that time, Cao Guangqi was often the source of laughter for the naughty children in the village, and a group of children laughed at his embarrassed appearance.
Ordinary meals don't even see meat, my aunt doesn't have any discomfort with this kind of rural life, as a daughter's family before, when she never entered the Hou Mansion, she lived like this, but now she is just falling into the trap, and she has long been psychologically prepared.
Cao Guangqi couldn't stand it, and occasionally bought some useless things, which was often said by his aunt.
He is not young, and even in Beijing, he should consider getting married, but his current reputation does not have any girl who wants to marry him, even the daughters of these peasants in the village that he does not look down on at all, and he will also feel that his status as the son of a sinner may hinder the progress of the next generation.
In fact, it is true, not only that he himself cannot take the imperial examination, but even his son cannot seek advancement through this, and this influence will even extend to his grandson and grandson's son.
In this case, even the farmer's family has to think more, Cao Guangqi himself is not in a hurry, but his aunt is in a hurry, and finally simply let the maid who has been following her release and let him marry the maid.
After understanding how bad his market is, Cao Guangqi did not resist, and the maid was also a familiar person, compared to the farmers in the village, how much color did he have, he knew how interesting, and he knew a few words, which was a bit talented.
He can't farm by himself, in the end he rented out the land, and he went to the town to find some work to copy, and occasionally drew two strokes to sell, and would write a few "Fu" characters during the New Year's holidays, and get a few couplets to recruit some business.
Occasionally, I would go to Beijing for a walk, and I had heard some things about Cao Zhi, and my aunt always remembered his love.
"When you did that, you really pushed people to a dead end, people are still your brothers, and they didn't hold a grudge against you for this, and they allowed me to live temporarily, but now you are safe, regardless of whether others need it or not, you always have to express your heart. โ
Because of my aunt's insistence, after they settled down and had some ability, they often bought some special products from the farmhouse and sent them to the Taoist temple, and they did not ask to meet, but only regarded them as the native products sent by the owner's family, and let the little Taoist boy accept them.
At first, Cao Guangqi was embarrassed to go, but later found that there were quite a lot of benefits of going, not to mention those valuable return gifts, seeing that he could deal with the royal Taoist temple, how many people were more tolerant of him, the son of a sinner, so that they would not have nowhere to live.
In this way, year after year, you can occasionally see the other party talking to someone, that person, in fact, is less and less like him, the resemblance in appearance has long changed because of his frustrations over the years, and the two have changed their experiences over the years, and they have long had a clear difference, and they will no longer be regarded as the same person.
Cao Zhi has not only been refining elixirs for the emperor over the years, but also published a "Collection of Herbal Medicines", the first half of which is to explain the appearance and efficacy of various herbs, along with drawings, and the second half is herbal prescriptions for various common diseases.
Cao Guangqi got such a book, it was a return gift from the other party, together with a number of body-tonifying pills, he took the pills and sold them, and it was another sum of money, so he knew how famous Cao Zhi Pharmaceutical was.
If it is only in this aspect, but the other party's alchemy said that it had found โกโก, in fact, โกโก this thing has been there for a long time, otherwise how did those fireworks work, but the other party found this kind of power is much greater, and it was the first to be adopted in the northern army, and it defeated Amo Khan that year, and almost completely pacified the border troubles.
It was still the court's ministers who said that this move would hurt the peace of the heavens, so they stopped the dream of using โกโก to dominate the world.
The other party also paid more attention to it, and as for the books on mathematics and chemistry published by the other party later, they were also listed as compulsory exams in the college.
Cao Guangqi also got a few books, and he could still understand some mathematics, but when it came to chemistry, he had a headache, but some of the things mentioned above still had some similarities with the herbal medicine collection, and he only dabbled in them a little, and some of them were indeed very useful knowledge.
For example, how water turns into steam, how it turns from steam to rain, and the principle of some discoloration reactions, although I am dizzy to see those letter formulas, but the principle is good.
Conservation of matter, when he saw this theorem, Cao Guangqi seemed to understand something, but he didn't seem to understand anything, he thought of his previous life and this life, what is the reason for the change, and what is the conservation?
"I don't know where he learned this, it really doesn't look like he was born in the countryside. Cao Guangqi sighed.
Cao Zhi's origin, and later the emperor said, naturally some people found the small village, the thatched hut far away from the village, but there is nothing special, if there is, maybe a person has the Taoist chicken dog ascended to heaven, since Cao Zhi has been valued, his original chicken and dog have also been raised in the royal Taoist temple.
Cao Guangqi has also seen that the local dog has a special Taoist boy waiting, just like the servant, it is those chickens, and there is no need to worry about being slaughtered, since someone takes care of them all day long, even the eggs they lay seem to be extraordinary, and they are touted to the price of one Baiwen, or there is no market.
A stand-in, in the end, it has come to this point, if it is himself, can he do it? Where can he be, he doesn't have such a dream fairy fate.
Cao Guangqi, who was thinking like this, seemed to have completely forgotten that he could be reborn, and for many people, he was much more powerful than Xianyuan, but it was impossible for a mediocre person to rise and forge ahead because of the twists and turns of fate, he still wasted such a rare opportunity and continued to be mediocre, maybe the children of this life around the knee is the biggest get.
The author has something to say: As the one who was left behind, is my aunt resentful? It must be resentful, but in the end, she just grabbed Cao Guangqi's arm, because this is her own son!
Poor her son only thought about running for his life at that time, and didn't think about anything else. 166 Reading Network
