Leaving Cao Cao's study, Cao Shuo took Cai Ji and went straight to Ding Yao's residence.

I haven't seen Ding Yao for a long time, and Cao Shuo really misses this mother very much.

Ever since he was accepted into the room by Ding Yao and became her son, Cao Shuo felt different from what he used to be with Mrs. Bian.

Although Mrs. Bian is also quite passable to him, compared to Cao Pi, Cao Zhang and Cao Zhi, Cao Shuo's life is not so comfortable.

Fortunately, the memories of that time were only fragments of his memories before he came to this era, and his feelings were not particularly deep.

Especially after Cao Shuo knew that he was not in good health in the past, it was probably because someone gave him chronic poison, and his good impression of Mrs. Bian did not exist at all.

came to the door of Ding Yao's residence, and before the door was called, a maid walked out of the courtyard.

Cao Shuo recognized her as Ding Yao's personal maid.

With a bow, Cao Shuo asked, "Dare to ask my sister, is my mother there?" ”

"When Madame heard that Childe had returned, she was already waiting in the house." The maid replied: "Not only have I prepared the preserved fruits that my son likes to eat, but even the dinner has been prepared." ”

"It's still my mother who loves me." Cao Shuo grinned and said to the maid: "I haven't seen you for a few days, and my sister is much better looking than before." ”

was praised by Cao Shuo, the maid's cheeks flushed, she lowered her head and said, "Son, please come with the servant, don't let the lady wait for a long time." ”

followed the maid into the small courtyard and came to the door of Ding Yao's room, Cao Shuo stopped.

The maid stepped forward to the house and said, "Mrs. Qiyu, the son is back!" ”

Cao Shuo didn't hear Ding Yao calling him into the house, but heard a rush of footsteps.

When the footsteps stopped, he saw Ding Yao appear at the door.

Looking at Cao Shuo, Ding Yao said with a smile on his face but red eyes: "Zirong...... You're back......"

"Mother!" Cao Shuo stepped forward to hold Ding Yao's hands and said to her, "I'm back." ”

"Quick, come in and talk." Holding Cao Shuo, Ding Yao led him into the house.

On the table in the room were Cao Shuo's favorite preserved fruits every time he came here, in addition to a pot of tea.

Leading Cao Shuo to sit down at the table, Ding Yao looked him up and down, although he had a smile on his face, his eyes were even redder.

"What's wrong with Mother?" Looking up at Ding Yao standing in front of him, Cao Shuo asked, "Did someone wronged my mother?" ”

"Silly boy, what are you talking about?" Ding Yao said angrily: "I am the mother of the queen house of the Cao family, besides you, who else can make me feel wronged?" ”

"What did I do wrong, and I ask my mother to make it clear." Cao Shuo hurriedly stood up, bowed to Ding Yao and said, "Annoying my mother, it's really a crime that deserves death!" ”

"Talking nonsense again." Ding Yao said angrily: "How can a person who leads troops to fight a war hang that word on his lips all day long? Don't talk nonsense in the future. ”

"I know it's wrong." Cao Shuo asked, "How did I annoy my mother?" I also asked my mother to tell me that I would never do it again. ”

"You're not wrong, it's just that my mother misses you too much...... "Holding Cao Shuo's hands, Ding Yao stared into his eyes and asked, "How long will you stay in Xu Capital this time?" ”

"It probably won't be long." Cao Shuo said: "The short is more than ten days, and the long is a month. I met my father just now, and he said that Yuan Xianfu sent people to Xiliang and Hetao to ask for help from Ma Teng, Han Sui and the Huns. ”

"Still asking the Huns for help?" Ding Yao was stunned: "What did your father say?" ”

"I have asked my father to fight, and I will lead the army against the Huns." Cao Shuo said: "When Li Dao and Guo Yan were in trouble in the Central Plains, the Huns had come. How many good men did they kill, and how many Han women did they rob? Even the young lady of Cai Yong's family was robbed by the Huns. This time they're coming, and I certainly can't let them go too freely. ”

"The Huns are different from what you've dealt with before." Ding Yao said: "There are so many generals in the Cao family, and so is the husband, how can I make you ......?"

"Mother, don't worry." Cao Shuo said: "My father didn't plan to let me go, I invited the battle myself, and my mother must not blame him." ”

Ding Yao sighed, and said to Cao Shuo with some grievances: "You kid, what I'm most afraid of is that you go to the battlefield, but you are good, obviously it has nothing to do with you, but you want to find something for yourself." ”

"Someone has to go to the battlefield after all." Cao Shuo said: "I have a way to deal with the Huns, so why let others go?" ”

Cao Shuo said so, and Ding Yao couldn't blame him anymore.

Mother and son were talking, and the maid walked in.

She bowed and said to Ding Yao: "Mrs. Qiqi, Mrs. Gan and Mrs. Mi have come to ask to see you." ”

"They're really good at timing." Hearing that Mrs. Gan and Mrs. Mi were coming, Ding Yao said to Cao Shuo: "I heard that you would come back a few days ago, and they had already told me that as soon as you arrived, they would come to pay a visit. I didn't have anyone to invite them, but they came first. ”

"The two ladies have a good relationship with their mother." Cao Shuo asked.

"When you weren't in Xudu, thanks to the two of them coming to see me often." Ding Yao said: "The two of them will also say good things about you in front of Cao Gong, and praise you like a flower." ”

Talking to Cao Shuo, Ding Yao instructed the maid, "Please invite the two ladies to come in and talk." ”

The maid bowed and withdrew.

A moment later, she led Mrs. Gan and Mrs. Mi in.

In front of Ding Yao and Cao Shuo, the two ladies saluted, and Mrs. Gan said: "Madame, forgive me, I heard that the son is back, and we really can't help but come to thank you. ”

"Just now I was talking to Zirong that when he was not in Xudu, fortunately the two ladies accompanied me to talk." Ding Yao smiled sweetly and said to Mrs. Gan and Mrs. Mi: "You and I are sisters, and there are no outsiders here in me, so there is no need for so many courtesies." ”

"That being said, the number of courtesies is still needed." Madame Gan said to the maid who followed her, "Present me the gift we gave to the son." ”

A maid approached with a tray in her hand.

Cao Shuo smiled and asked, "The two ladies also prepared a gift for me?" ”

"The gift is vulgar, don't laugh at the child." Mrs. Gan said.

The maid held the tray and came to Cao Shuo.

Mrs. Gan said: "The gift is not suitable for us to unveil, or the son unveils it to take a look." ”

The contents of the tray were covered with red silk and looked like a sword that was neither short nor long.

Cao Shuo lifted a corner of the red silk and removed the silk.

Sure enough, on the tray was a short sword with a scabbard inlaid with gold, but the shape of the short sword was a little peculiar, and it didn't look like an item from the Central Plains.

Picking up the short sword, Cao Shuo pulled it out, and a cold light flashed on the sword body, and his eyes almost didn't open.
