Chapter 82: Coming Home
"Who is in charge of this Chu family?" Old Madam Cao sent someone to call Cao Jinrong over, and asked Mrs. Cao instead.
"It should be the eldest lady of the Chu family and the young grandmother of the Chu family who call the shots together." Mrs. Cao saw that Old Man Cao was going to ask her grandson in person, so she suggested to her that she should inquire again and left first.
On the way back, I happened to meet Cao Jinrong who came over, and before Mrs. Cao's smile unfolded, Cao Jinrong passed by her directly, and didn't say hello.
Mrs. Cao has become accustomed to Cao Jinrong's rudeness in marrying into the Cao family for more than ten years, and she also knows that she who has not been able to have children can only rely on Cao Jinan and them in the future, so she also learns from Master Cao, regardless of whether she asks, they make their own decisions.
returned to her yard, Mrs. Cao ordered someone to inquire about Chu Yiyao, and it happened that Master Cao came back, so she told him about it.
"What does he want to do?" Master Cao's first reaction when he heard it was that this unconscious son was going to do something to make people follow behind his ass and clean up.
"Jin Rong's age is not too young, it's not too early to get married next year, and now he mentions it himself, it's better than if we find him and are not satisfied." Mrs. Cao and Yan Dao.
"Mother, what do you say?" Master Cao sat down and looked at her and said, Cao Jinrong has been raised in Mrs. Cao's yard since he was a child, and it will not be Master Cao himself who makes the final decision.
"My mother said that Jin Rong likes it, then go and say kiss, and there is no need to be a capable maiden like Jin An's daughter-in-law, as long as Jin Rong likes it." As soon as Master Cao heard this, he had a little migraine, that is, a sentence that his son likes, from childhood to adulthood, but whatever Cao Jinrong likes, Mrs. Cao will satisfy him, but in case this family member does not agree.
"Is this Chu family the eldest lady of the Chu family in charge?" Half a ring, Master Cao asked her.
"Master, do you also know about this eldest lady of the Chu family?" Mrs. Cao was a little surprised, this should have been a matter in the house, how could the lord know that he had managed the Cao family's business all year round.
"That Chu family firm, without this eldest lady of the Chu family, I'm afraid it would have fallen long ago, how could I not know." For Master Cao, Chu Yiyao gave him the impression that there was a rumor among businessmen about collecting arrears, how could a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl get back all the money she owed for many years in front of a group of old men.
That's why Master Cao is worried that such an idea girl is not something they want to marry, and people will marry...
As expected by Master Cao, half a month later, Mrs. Cao invited someone to go to the Chu family to say goodbye, but half a day later, the person came back and told her directly that the young grandmother of the Chu family refused the marriage.
Old Mrs. Cao listened to the matchmaker for a long time, and frowned, as soon as the young grandmother of the Chu family heard that it was the third young master of the Cao family, she immediately smiled and wanted to send the matchmaker out, and she didn't say why, she just shouldn't be this family matter.
"Shuqin, you go to the Chu family in person." Old Madam Cao instructed Mrs. Cao with a slightly calm face, "Is it our lack of sincerity or do they look down on our Cao family." ”
Mrs. Cao didn't dare to say anything when she saw that Old Madam Cao's expression was wrong, so she responded, "I think it's appropriate to go over in three or five days, if you are too in a hurry, it will make the Chu family think that our Cao family has to do it." ”
"Just do as you say." Mrs. Cao squinted slightly, leaned back slightly, Mrs. Cao knew that she was tired, got up and left with the matchmaker.
When Mrs. Cao arrived outside the house, her expression was a little embarrassed, listening to the meaning of the matchmaker, the Chu family had no intention of marrying at all, and her trip would definitely be fruitless, so Mrs. Cao and the matchmaker asked, "When you went, the eldest lady of the Chu family was not there?" ”
The matchmaker shook her head, "As soon as the young grandmother of the Chu family is here, as soon as she heard that I was going to go for Cao Sangongzi, she didn't listen to me and said that they didn't have the idea of getting married." "The matchmaker and Mrs. Cao still picked up a good sound when they talked, otherwise her reputation as a matchmaker would be ruined, if it weren't for such a high matchmaker red envelope, she wouldn't have taken this tricky family matter.
"In a few days, you will go to the Chu family with me." Mrs. Cao nodded and asked the matchmaker to go back...
The Chu family, when Chu Yiyao came back in the evening, Qiao Cong'an came to Yifeng Courtyard in person and told her about the Cao family's kiss during the day, Chu Yiyao swallowed the tea and choked directly in her throat, and her cheeks were red when she coughed.
The peacock on the side hurriedly patted her on the back, and it took a while for Chu Yiyao to ease up, looking at Qiao Cong'an's eyes full of surprise, "Sister-in-law, you said that the people of the Cao family asked the matchmaker to come and tell me kiss for Cao Jinrong?" ”
"Don't talk about you, I was shocked when I heard it." Qiao Cong'an was surprised after hearing the matchmaker's intentions, they had nothing to do with the Cao family, how could the Cao family say goodbye to the Chu family.
"Then how did you refuse?" Chu Yiyao took two sips of tea and sat on the couch.
"Let's just say that we never thought about marrying such a family affair with the Cao family, Yiyao, didn't the third prince of Cao have some holidays with your cousin." Qiao Cong'an's impression of Cao Jinrong is not only a gentleman, that is, a bad reputation, in Jinling City over the years, Cao Jinrong alone can account for more than sixty percent of the ten things of the son. Such a person, even if Yi Yao doesn't say it, she won't agree to this marriage.
"There are still few people who offend him, it's been so long, he won't remember his cousin." Chu Yiyao shook her head, her and Cao Jinrong's holiday was not because of her cousin's business, seeing that her sister-in-law was puzzled, Chu Yiyao told her about the second brother and the mandarin duck from beginning to end.
"I know a little about your second brother and the mandarin duck, but I didn't expect it to have so much to do with the third son of the Cao family." Qiao Cong'an sighed, the little uncle's infatuation, it's a pity that he used the wrong person to do the wrong thing.
"If the third prince of Cao wants to marry you for this reason, it can't be said." If you can't get angry, then take revenge, don't let others have a good time, how can you directly invite someone to come to the door to say goodbye, where can such a child's play be allowed in a marriage event.
"It's probably the best way he thinks he can get revenge." Chu Yiyao snorted, marrying her into the door can directly ruin the rest of her life, doesn't this directly make her make the Chu family unhappy, and she is willing to sacrifice her life's events to retaliate against her, Chu Yiyao should feel honored, she is such a small person worthy of Cao Jinrong's attention.
"It's all rejected once, they shouldn't come again, but Yiyao, your marriage can't be delayed any longer." Qiao Cong'an was worried about her marriage, and she couldn't be dragged out because of the Chu family.
"Sister-in-law, didn't the master of the marriage temple say that I am destined to be the same person as him, he hasn't appeared yet, what am I anxious about, the third son of the Cao family will definitely not be the destined person in the master's mouth, now where do you let me find it~" Mentioning his marriage, Chu Yiyao began to play coquettish in front of Qiao Cong'an again.
Qiao Cong'an pinched her funny, "You, now use this signature to prevaricate me, even if the third son of Cao is not, the next one to kiss, you can be sure that someone is not?" ”
"Of course." Chu Yiyao nodded, and all said no, this is also certain.
"It's all about talking." Qiao Cong'an couldn't be worn by her, and Qing'er at the door shouted, "Young grandma, eldest miss, the second young master is back!" ”……
Qiao Cong'an and Chu Yiyao rushed to the front hall, Chu Duyuan stood in the front hall like a guest, dressed very plainly, and the person looked a lot haggard, when he saw Chu Yiyao, a touch of guilt flashed in his eyes, and then he dodged again, and the stubble on his chin was too late to clean up, as if he had experienced a lot of vicissitudes.
Several people stood there silently, until Chu Yingzhu ran over, entered the door and looked around to make sure that the one in the center was Chu Duyuan, ran up and hugged him, and shouted, "Second uncle, you want to kill me!" ”
"Second uncle, where have you been, how long have you been there, why don't you go home, why have you grown a beard, just like uncle, second uncle, I miss you so much, where did you go?" Chu Yingzhu's continuous questioning sounded in the front hall, and Chu Duyuan squatted down, he had really been away for a long time, and his nephews had grown so taller.
"Second uncle, why did you only come back now?" Chu Yingzhu muttered and touched his chin, his beard was a little prickly, Chu Duyuan reached out and touched his head, and his voice was a little hoarse, "Second Uncle went to a far away place and accidentally got lost, so I didn't want to come back." ”
Chu Yiyao, who was standing there, was shocked when she heard this, and a sour feeling surged in her heart, which quickly occupied her perception, and a hot mist accumulated under her eyes.
Chu Yingzhu patted Chu Duyuan's shoulder like a little adult, and said with an understanding look in an old tone, "Second Uncle doesn't know the way, don't go to such a far place next time, just get lost and come back, we're all worried about you to death." ”
Chu Yingzhu's ignorant words were like a kind of telling Chu Duanyuan, if you are lost, you still have home, it's good to come back, you find your way home, and you know that it's not too late to come back, Chu Duyuan hugged Chu Yingzhu in his arms, and choked up a little, "Well, next time the second uncle won't go so far." ”
Chu Yingzhu patted him on the back comfortingly, looked up and saw Qiao Cong'an, Qiao Cong'an nodded at him, Chu Yingzhu then broke free from Chu Duyuan's arms, asked him to stand up, took his hand and walked in front of Chu Yiyao, raised his head and asked Chu Yiyao, "Auntie, the second uncle is back, aren't you happy?" ”
Chu Yiyao was stunned and didn't know how to answer, half-loud, she shook her head gently, looked at him with a smile and said, "Auntie is happy." After speaking, he raised his head and looked at Chu Duyuan, as if he was answering Chu Yingzhu's words, and as if he was saying it to Chu Duyuan, "Your second uncle knows the way home, and my aunt is naturally happy, I think he will not make such a mistake again in the future." ”
Chu Yingzhu turned his head to look at Chu Duyuan like a little peacemaker, "Second uncle, will you still be lost in the future?" ”
"The second uncle is so old, he will definitely not be in the future." Chu Duyuan looked straight at Chu Yiyao and reassured.
"Okay, I've been out for so long and just come back, hurry up and wash the dust, if you have anything to say, there is time." Qiao Cong'an came out of the round at the right time, pulled Chu Duyuan and asked him to follow Qing'er back, and then went to pull Chu Yiyao, "You didn't rest when you just came back, go change your clothes and eat again." ”
Waiting for Chu Yiyao to leave, Chu Yingzhu ran to Qiao Cong'an and looked at her with a smile, "Mother, did you say that I said well!" ”
"That's a good thing, go wash your hands and get ready to eat." Qiao Cong'an touched his head and asked his mother to take him down to wash his hands, looked up at Huaishan, the tenderness in his eyes had not yet dissipated, and said with a smile, "Let's eat together." ”
