Cao Xiu was stunned when he heard this, and his hands were beaten, and then two or three drops of ink were dipped into the rice paper.

"Oh, third brother, what are you doing in a daze, look, you are stunned by the ink, and you have ruined a good painting!" Cao Tang was the first to shout.

Her appearance of stomping her feet and pouting her lips was so cute and cute, Cui Wanqing unconsciously felt tenderness in her heart, and reached out and gently stroked Cao Tang's long hair.

There was also a sigh of regret in his mouth: "It's all because I couldn't help but talk a lot just now, which disturbed my cousin's mind, and I saw that it was going to be fine soon, but it was stained with ink, which is really a pity." ”

Cao Xiu looked at his two younger sisters, and the expressions between his eyebrows were depressed.

He couldn't help frowning slightly, looking at the painting, but in a blink of an eye, he smiled, took a new pen, and used the pen to paint again.

Between Sumeru, two koi fish playing frolicking appeared in front of everyone's eyes instead of those few ink stains.

Between the lotus leaves, the two koi fish swim in it, and the artistic conception of the painting is even stronger.

Cao Tang slapped his face and smiled: "The third brother is the most powerful, draw a pair of geese for me, and I want that pair!" ”

Everyone followed her hand to look at the lake, but not far away, a pair of black swans, with their necks crossed on the water, looked so warm.

"Sixth sister, cousin Qing is a guest, let's give her this picture, catch up with the third brother to paint a swan for you, okay?" Cao Xiu said softly to Cao Tang.

As he spoke, he pinched Cao Tang's double-ring sideburns, and saw Cao Tang snap, knocking Cao Xiu's hand aside, and said angrily: "I have no opinion on Cousin Qing, but can you not take the opportunity to pinch my hair?" I'm not a kid anymore, brother! ”

Cui Wanqing couldn't help but be amused by Cao Tang's staring eyes and pretending to be an adult, "Who told you to comb your hair in such a cute bun?" I can't help it, and it makes people want to pinch it. Cui Wanqing also dragged the little tugger on Cao Tang's left and said with a smile.

Cao Tang was anxious by the two of them, jumped up to Cao Yun in two steps, grabbed Cao Yun's hand, and complained: "Second brother, third brother and cousin Qing bullied me, and their two big partners bullied me a small one, it's not authentic, you have to call the shots for me, come and help me!" ”

Cao Yun touched his nose with his hand with a smile, looked at Cui Wanqing, who was smiling, spread his hands, and sighed: "Okay, who called me your second brother?" Since you, a girl, begged your brother, what else is there to say? You say, are you asking me to mess up your cousin's bun? Or beat up your third brother? ”

Cui Wanqing covered her mouth with a handkerchief when she heard this, and her little shoulders trembled with laughter.

Cao Tang couldn't help but roll his eyes at first, and then he couldn't help laughing.

Cao Yun saw that she had turned her anger into joy, and clapped her hands and said, "Haha, you don't choose it yourself, don't complain about the second brother when the time comes, I don't make decisions for you." ”

Cao Tang could have forgotten it, but when he saw Cao Yun laughing at her like this, he felt that his face was too unsightly, so he picked up his pink fist and slammed it on Cao Yun's back.

"Okay, let's be sisters after all, and if you don't bully your brother in turn, you're not afraid of making people laugh." Cui Wanqing stretched out her hand to grab Cao Tang and persuaded softly.

Cao Xiu stood with his hands in his hands, watching his brothers and sisters laughing, feeling warm, and the expression on his face softened a little.

The wind on the lake blew gently, blowing the tips of his hair flying, and the jade robe was gently rolled up by the wind, making a rustling sound, but it made people feel that his eyebrows and eyes were more vivid.

Cui Wanqing planned to leave and go home after lunch, but she was tricked by Cao Tang, holding her arm and not losing her hand, she begged her cousin to stay longer.

Mrs. Cao Laohou saw that the two of them were tired, and said with a smile: "Since your sister is reluctant to let you go, you might as well play more, and you won't be afraid later, anyway, your cousin Xiu Mu, let the two of them send you back." ”

"Yes, granddaughter listens to you." Cui Wanqing bent her knees, turned her head to look at Cao Tang's smug look, couldn't help but glance at her, and twisted her little face.

Cao Tang looked indifferent, replied to her with a big grimace, jumped up and said to his grandmother: "Grandmother, you have to take a lunch break every day, and the granddaughters won't bother you, I'll take my cousin to my yard to play." ”

Mrs. Cao Laohou happily agreed, and sent someone to accompany the two young ladies to the courtyard of the third room.

The three rooms of the Cao family live in the Kanghe Courtyard in the east of the Hou Mansion, three before and after, close to the garden, and the three rooms are now in addition to Cao Tang and Cao Xiu, as well as the sixth son Cao Xin and the seventh lady Cao Duo.

The brothers Cao Xiu and Cao Xin both lived in the Shenqin Courtyard in the outer courtyard, which was the third courtyard of Enoch, and the third master and wife of Cao San, with Cao Tang, Cao Duo sisters, and four concubines.

As soon as the two sisters got off the sedan chair, they vaguely saw a group of people who had just walked in the gate, probably hearing the sound of the sedan car falling behind, and the people turned around to check again.

The leader who was wearing a blue arrow-sleeved robe with an ivory belt around his waist was not Master Cao San, who was it?

Cui Wanqing and Cao Tang looked at each other and smiled, Cao Tang was very surprised and pulled Cui Wanqing, walked quickly to his father, and smiled and bent his knees to say hello, "Didn't my father go to the Marquis Hongyao's Mansion to listen to the play?" Why did you come back so early? Could it be that Huang Ying'er didn't go today? ”

On the handsome face of Master Cao San, who is like jade, there are pieces of red glow, and a pair of eyes are also moist, obviously he came back from drinking, he frowned, pursed the corners of his mouth, and looked depressed.

Hearing his daughter's question, Master Cao San glanced at Cui Wanqing and said in a deep voice: "You go back to the room by yourself, Qing'er come with me, the third uncle has something to ask you." ”

"Yes." Cui Wanqing responded respectfully, looking at the unhappiness on her third uncle's face, she couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive in her heart, and secretly speculated what the third uncle was trying to tell herself?

Thinking of today, the seer's eldest uncle has changed from the strictness of the last time and has become more loving.

And the third uncle who will see this is the opposite, these brothers are really interesting, do you have to sing with a white face and the other with a red face?

Cui Wanqing sighed, and couldn't help but glance at Cao Tang on the side, "Don't let Cousin Tang come with me, if my cousin is here, I will have a companion anyway, in case your old man goes crazy, won't there be someone to play a round?" ”

Cao Tang seemed to see what she was thinking, and hurriedly gave her a comforting look, but in her heart, she knew that her father was angry and secretly wanted to find her mother to be a rescuer.

Cao Mu put his hands behind his back and took Cui Wanqing to his study without saying a word.

The atmosphere was very dull, and Cui Wanqing sat obediently on the official hat chair, feeling very uncomfortable.

It's really this third uncle, the two times they met, they were too different, the first time it was full of care, and it was very loving.

This time, he strained his face, frowned, sat on the couch and sulked, his fingers tapping on the desk, and it sounded quite regular.

Listening carefully, it seemed to be playing the drum, Cui Wanqing sighed secretly: "The third uncle is really a fan of drama, this casual beating has its own rhythm." ”

Master Cao San was really depressed today, and first Ming Anhou sent him out to listen to the play for some of his own thoughts.

Then, in the mansion of Marquis Hongyao, he overheard a big secret, which was also related to his niece and daughter.

This series of things, if his mood can be good, it will be strange.

These words, we have to start from the beginning, today's Hongyao Marquis Mansion invited is Cao San's favorite Qingfuchun, Huang Ying'er also sang very hard today, he was very happy to listen to, and under the great interest, he inevitably drank a few more cups.

When I went to the toilet in the middle, I was in a hurry to go back to listen to the play, so I was impatient to take the main road and copied the forest path to save time.

While walking, he heard someone talking, and the voices were two men, and after careful identification, he knew both of them.

One is Bai Guangwen, the secretary of the ministry, and the other is the one I only met during the banquet just now, Liao Yi, the capital of Jiazhou.

This Liao Yi is a military general, capable of being a fourth-grade official, and he also has a few brushes, in order not to be misunderstood, he simply leaned against a big tree nearby, closed his eyes, and dissipated his strength by the way.

"My Lord Bian intends to marry Lord Cui, but he will not be able to return to Beijing until the end of the year, so let me bring you a word first, I want you to help me be this big matchmaker, and when the time comes, I will ask Lord Shangshu to take care of it." Liao Yi's words suddenly drilled into the ears of Master Cao San.

"Isn't this Lord Cui, the head of the household, the eldest uncle of the Qing girl?" Cao Mu thought to himself.

Bai Guangwen said with a smile: "Lord Bian is already related to Second Master Cui, and it would be better to have another kiss and a kiss." I have a very good personal relationship with Lord Cui, but his eldest niece is going to enter the palace for the draft in October, and the candidate for this marriage is the fourth lady? ”

"Isn't it? In a trance, I seemed to hear what Neiko said, as if I was asking to marry Miss Nine. Liao Yi's words were full of uncertainty.

Master Cao's closed eyes suddenly opened, "Miss Nine, isn't that his niece?" This child is only ten years old, so someone wants to ask to marry? This is really a blink of an eye, it has been thousands of years! ”

Back then, his sister was going to get married when she grew up, and now, the niece she just recognized was also going to get married, Cao Mu couldn't help but feel sad and sighed.

Bai Guangwen didn't speak for a long time, and only after a while did he hear him say: "This Miss Jiu, I rarely hear people mention it, and the old man doesn't know what her character is, but looking at her ranking, she shouldn't be very old, this is not a good match for the son of the Bian family, right?" ”

"Hey, others don't know, you don't know? The fifth son of the Bian family is weak, otherwise how would he think of going to his sister's house to find his daughter-in-law? Who would send a good child to be widowed? Liao Yi deserves to be a military general, and he said this mercilessly, and all the skins of the Bian family were ruthlessly uncovered with one word.

Bai Guangwen was probably choked by this person's words, and he didn't say anything for a long time.

"Oh, feelings are a black heart of a cheating little girl, why do you want to find me?" Bai Guangwen was very reluctant in his heart.

But the large stack of silver tickets in his sleeve reminded him that the Bian family could not be offended.

Bian Tingshi is generous, and he has quite a political achievement, listening to the tone of the saint a few days ago, I am afraid that he is not far from being promoted again.

Such a character can only be befriended, how can he be offended? R1152
