Chapter 516: Father Cao's Teachings
(Today's Valentine's Day, everyone's wishes come true!!) )
Although she wanted to go back to see her father and mother, Cao Xin stayed in the Wei Mansion for two days before she told Yu Ji that she wanted to go to the Cao Mansion to have a look.
These two days were definitely the happiest two days of the year, and they were also the two days when she smiled the most. Although she was a little reluctant to let Cao Xin leave, she was not an unreasonable person, so she was still relieved to go back to her parents' house.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Cao Mansion, Cao Rui and his wife, who had just had breakfast, were scattered in the small courtyard at this time, and the ice and snow had melted at this time, so it was a good time to come out and take a walk.
"Husband, I heard Cao Jun say that Xin'er went back to Wu'an, but it's been two days, why hasn't she come home to take a look!" Cao Xin's mother, Chen, complained.
Although Cao Rui was also concerned about his daughter, he comforted: "My daughters are already married to women, so they should abide by the corresponding rules, don't forget...... You taught her these rules. β
Chen was still unhappy, and complained: "There is only one person in the Wei Mansion, and I don't know what to treat!" β
Cao Rui was a little unhappy when he heard this, and then reprimanded: "What do you know, the prince and concubine are also the ones we can call by name?" What's more, Xin'er is someone's daughter-in-law! β
Cao Rui is a man after all, and he is not as concerned about his daughter as his son, but this remark aroused Chen's dissatisfaction, and he only listened to her: "Look at your husband, you are careful, if it weren't for the good son born by the Na Tan family, the concubine would never agree to marry her daughter to her as a daughter-in-law!" β
It's just that Cao Rui didn't want to delve into this topic, so he said: "Okay, for the husband and official business, you can transfer it yourself!" β
Just when Chen was about to save two sentences, he heard someone from outside report from outside: "Old lady, Miss is back!" β
Suddenly, Cao Rui, who was going to the Yamen, immediately stopped, and then looked at his wife, and the two of them smiled at the same time.
I only heard Cao Rui ask, "Where is Xin'er?" Come with me to meet you! β
Then the steward smiled and said, "Presumably, the young lady has entered the mansion now, and is now waiting for the old lady in the main hall!" β
Cao Rui didn't say more, and after making a look at his wife, the two rushed to the main hall in the front yard at the same time.
At this time, as the steward said, Cao Xin was already standing in the main hall, waiting for her father and mother to come out.
Originally, she also wanted to go directly to the back hall to find Cao Rui and the others as she did at the beginning, and casually turn around the home where she had lived for more than ten years.
But now that he is Wei Wuji's wife after all, his words and deeds are bound by invisible rules and regulations, and he can no longer be as naΓ―ve and reckless as he was at the beginning.
In this main hall, Cao Xin looked around...... Growing up, she had seen her grandfather and father host countless guests, and now she was one of the guests to come.
It didn't take long for footsteps to sound in the direction of the back hall, and Cao Xin could roughly guess that this was her father and mother.
Sure enough, just as Cao Xin's thought fell, she saw her mother coming out of the side door of the back hall, and the smile on her face couldn't be stopped at all.
"Father and mother......" Cao Xin immediately called, but the words that were originally going to be said were forgotten in Java at this time.
I haven't seen her for a year, for Cao Xin, it's like ten years of absence, and now looking at her father and mother, she even feels a lot older than she did at the beginning.
For this reason, Cao Xin shed tears of excitement, although she is now Mrs. Shangqing, and her status is much higher than her parents, but it seems that she is back to the beginning, and she has become the little girl who likes to cry in front of her mother.
Or Chen understands his daughter, after all, she came over like this at the beginning, and her daughter is undoubtedly more difficult than herself.
"What are you crying about, it's all big girls, cry again...... Be careful that your mother slaps you! As he spoke, even the Chen clan fell.
However, Cao Rui remained normal, and said slowly: "It's a good thing to be reunited after a long absence, it's not good for you to cry like this!" β
As soon as Cao Rui said this, the mother and daughter gradually stopped, and tidied up each other's clothes that had just been messed up.
What happened next was exactly the same as when Cao Xin had just returned to the Wei Mansion, except that the focus of the conversation changed from Wei Wuji himself to how he treated Cao Xin.
Of course, Cao Xin said a lot of good things for Wei Wuji, but the Chen family was not easy to deceive. In her opinion, in the bitter cold land of the north, there will be as good as her daughter said.
To tell the truth, if it weren't for Wei Wuji's persecution, the Chen family would not be willing to marry his daughter to this son who is hostile to everyone.
In the following time, Chen learned about Cao Xin's life in Jingbei in detail, including the management of all affairs in the house, etc., but put Cao Rui as his father aside.
But looking at this harmonious and warm scene, Cao Rui, who usually looks majestic and upright, also slowly smiled at this time.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
After the meal, Chen was pushed aside by Cao Rui under the pretext of looking for Cao Jun, and came to the study alone with Cao Xin.
In fact, it was the first time for Cao Xin to sit with her father face-to-face like this, and she was a little unaccustomed to such a formal scene.
But Cao Xin also vaguely guessed that her father was afraid that her father had something to say to herself, or to her husband behind her, so it was not only her father who was sitting opposite at this time.
The two looked at each other without saying a word, but Cao Xin spoke first: "The father called his daughter here, there must be something to explain!" β
Seeing that his daughter guessed it, Cao Rui couldn't help but sigh in his heart, if only his son was so smart.
Cao Rui nodded, and then said: "My father does have something to tell you, and I also told the fifth son!" β
Seeing that Cao Xin had the posture of answering, Cao Rui continued: "It's just a pity that my father asked your brother to go to Jingbei before, but I couldn't convince my son, so I ...... I'd like to tell you about it today. β
Who knew that Cao Xin said: "If the husband doesn't agree, why does the father have to tell his daughter that the daughter can't change her husband's mind, besides...... The daughter also believes that her husband's decision has her own reasons. β
Seeing his daughter like this, Cao Rui felt a little bitter in his heart, he finally understood what it meant to send out the water that his daughter spilled.
But Cao Rui didn't give up and said: "Doesn't Xin'er plan to listen to it, or does Xin'er think that being a father will harm her son-in-law?" β
Seeing that her father had said everything to this point, Cao Xin could only say: "Since the father wants to say it, the daughter can only listen to it!" β
Although his daughter's reluctance made Cao Rui a little frustrated, he still told his daughter about his plan with his old father.
After listening carefully to what his father said, Cao Xin said: "Father's meaning daughter understands what she means, you want your son not to kill the world, but to win over moderately!" β
Although these words are not difficult to understand, when they come out of the mouth of a female streamer, Cao Rui still feels sorry, and secretly says that it would be better if this was his own son.
For his daughter's words, Cao Rui said: "That's true, the clan is powerful, if the son has to confront the clan, the consequences will only be a lose-lose ......."
"This world is not black and white, especially for those who are in high power, if the prince shows favor to the world after gaining the general trend, there must be a lot less trouble on the way." Cao Rui earnestly taught.
Although Cao Xin also felt that her father had some truth in what she said, she still said: "But what's the use of the father telling his daughter this, since the husband has already made a decision, could it be that the father still expects his daughter to change?" β
Cao Rui said: "Childe has the difficulties of childe, but as his wife, you should naturally help share some responsibilities......"
Seeing that her father had something to say, Cao Xin asked, "What does my father mean?" β
Cao Rui said: "Daughter, it's not easy for the son to make a move, but as his wife, you can show favor to the world, and no one must be able to say anything!" β
Cao Xin glanced at her father, and then said, "Father, is this going to let his daughter and her husband deviate from morality?" β
was questioned by his daughter like this, Cao Rui couldn't help but think a little more highly of his daughter, he didn't expect that his daughter would be able to think of this layer.
It's also strange that Cao Rui hasn't really loved someone, otherwise, he will always pay attention to what impact his words and deeds will have on the other half.
Cao Rui said: "Xin'er, what are you talking about, the matter is as serious as you said, you just need to meet your friends in the house, this is human nature......"
"In this way, you can also maintain a relationship with the clan, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds!" Cao Rui said with a smile.
