Chapter 377: The Cao Family's Choice
(This chapter is for the deacon "0 Bonabaichuan 0", and only with the strong support of book friends, the author will be more passionate in creation!!) )
After that, two major events happened to the people in Shangqing's mansion.
The first is that Lan'er, who was originally a maid next to the old lady, was transferred to the son's side.
This is definitely enviable for the servants in the house, especially for those new maidservants, this is tantamount to a step to the sky.
The second is, the Shangqing Mansion ...... After making quick preparations, a dowry was sent to the Cao family, a very abrupt dowry.
This made Wu'an City can't help but have a trace of ripples.
Although the Cao family is not a prominent family in Wu'an City, it is also noteworthy to receive an appointment from Wei Wuji.
The most disappointed is Gao Yang, who has let go. He just gave up Miss Cao's family, and he was killed by Wei Wuji.
Originally, when he heard that Wei Wuji was exiled to Lingbei and was not allowed to come back, he was very happy, who knew that such a result would be.
This kind of secondary injury is even more painful.
Similarly, the Cao family, who was suddenly hired, was also in a very embarrassing situation at this time, should they agree or not?
Besides, there is no such thing at all, there is no news in advance and the hired person is directly hired, which is not according to the routine.
For the Cao family, this is really a tangled matter, according to the original intention, of course they don't want to agree, after all, Wei Wuji's reputation is "stinky".
However, after all, it is the Wei family, and it is difficult for them to refuse openly...... What's more, the other party is still Wei Wuji's "splashing skin".
Cao Yun, the great Si Nong Cheng of the Wei State, the person with the highest position in the Cao family now, is also Cao Xin's grandfather, and now he is the best man.
In a place like Wu'an, the Cao family can only be regarded as an ordinary family. Now that Wei Wuji is involved, they can't play a little bit.
"Father, we can't agree to this, otherwise we will become the public enemy of the clan......"
Speaking of this, Cao Xin's father Cao Rui continued: "It is not easy for my Cao family to prosper the family, and I must not get involved in these battles. ”
The Cao family suffered a great disaster before, and now it is very difficult to keep this title, and they are likely to have fun when they are involved in the big storm of Wei Wuji.
Titles are everything in this era, wealth and status and power, otherwise why these clans oppose the change of the law is not that they are unwilling to let more people share the cake.
If the Cao family can be rectified, there will be no loss for everyone.
Therefore, the Cao family is only afraid of both sides now, and they seem to have become the focus of the wrestling between the two sides at this time, and they are likely to be torn to pieces.
"This ...... I don't know how to be a father! Cao Yun sighed and said, it was precisely because he understood more that he knew how tricky this matter was.
And he also understood why his son was in a hurry to object, and he didn't care about the lack of a county order that the Gao family had promised......
"If we refuse directly, we are undoubtedly slapping the office in the face, so even if we follow the will of the world, we will offend the office!" Cao Yun sighed, even if Wei Hou didn't do anything on the surface, he might be dissatisfied in his heart.
In Wei Hou's opinion, no matter what other interests are entangled, if your Cao family refuses, you can't see the office clearly, because you are not qualified to refuse at all.
This can be seen from the fact that the Zongzheng Mansion can forcibly arrange for women of the clan to enter the office as wives and concubines, and the office is to give and demand from the subordinates in this regard. And the worst thing is that even if you refuse this time, according to that son's temper, I am afraid that you will be able to make the Cao family restless immediately.
"So, even if we listen to the words of the Shi clan, I'm afraid your county order won't be able to take office!" Cao Yun shook his head and said, he was undoubtedly very disappointed that his son didn't even see through this.
Now that he is in his fifties, he can't work in this position for a few years, and then the Cao family should have = who will lead him? I'm afraid my own sons and grandsons can't afford this big responsibility.
Since the future is bleak, then ...... It's better to give it a fight, he Cao Yun has never gambled in his life, so he will play a big game today.
"You go down immediately to prepare, and immediately return the gift to the princess's mansion, just say that we agreed to their proposal, and at the same time ask when they will come to greet ......" Cao Yun said solemnly, this decision was also made by him after a lot of thought.
But Cao Rui didn't understand, this was completely putting the family to death...... You must know that their Cao family is not only a few of them, but also a lot of side relatives.
This decision involves the future of a large group of people, so Cao Rui still wants to think twice about his father, so he said around the bush: "Father, at this time, let's ask Xin'er what she means!" ”
No matter what, Cao Rui will find a way to make his daughter disagree!
Cao Yun suddenly slapped the table and said, "Confused...... Don't hurry up and do as the Father wills! ”
Cao Rui had no choice but to turn around and retreat.
This will put all your life on you, Son! Cao Yun said secretly in his heart.
His gamble was undoubtedly huge, if Wei Wuji ...... One in 10,000 chance to succeed to the throne, then his Cao family will follow the fish and leap into the dragon gate.
Of course, this opportunity is really very vague, very slim, very slim, in fact...... But in Cao Yun's heart, somehow there was a trace of luck, and I don't know how he came to the judgment.
Other people were busy, but Cao Xin, as the party concerned, was sitting quietly in front of the dresser at this time, looking at herself in a daze in the bronze jian.
All this was really too sudden, she didn't expect that it had only been a few days before she received a dowry from that person...... A dowry gift sent without a proposal.
She can still remember very clearly now, the man said as if teasingly: Sister Xin'er, marry me!
Who knows, it has become a reality now, and she may really be about to marry that person.
But she was still worried at this time, because he knew that his father and grandfather might not be reluctant to agree to marry Wei Wuji.
"Miss...... The young lady ...... "At this moment, suddenly the voice of the maidservant girl came from outside.
Cao Xin woke up from deep thought, and asked the maid who came in, "Hui'er, what's the matter?" ”
The maidservant Hui'er gasped and said, "Miss, the head of the family has agreed to marry you to Wuji!" ”
Somehow, Cao Xin suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and now he felt at ease.
That's right, she asked herself in her heart, and she knew that she liked Wei Wuji, so she was happy with this result.
And she also knows that among her little sisters, there are many people who like Wei Wuji, after all, no one will dislike this kind of heroic character.
It's just that because of the will of the family, they can't make a choice for themselves. As a result, they had only heard of Wei Wuji's name, but they didn't recognize Wei Wuji when he was in front of them.
Therefore, Cao Xin still has a trace of happiness in her heart...... Because the family's decision does not conflict with her will, this is commendable.
Although she also knew in her heart that it might be bitter to follow Wei Wuji, he was also willing to suffer this hardship.
A girl may not know what love is, but the power of love has been nurtured in her heart.
This is because Wei Wuji had helped him, and the image of the wise and martial arts he created...... In line with all the girl's fantasies about her other half, Cao Xin fell in love with him unconsciously.
