Dongjiang Rice Lane, Chunjun Palace.

Although it was the New Year, several Fujin also had smiles on their faces, but the atmosphere in the room was a little depressing, and they couldn't really see joy.

Especially the side Fu Jin Na La, his expression was the most stiff, and the whole person was reduced, looking like he was a few years older.

The eldest brother Hongshu added a sister-in-law half a month ago, and because of the weakness in the womb, he has not cut off the decoction since he landed.

Now, although the little brother has not yet reached the full moon, listening to the meaning of the imperial doctor, he can only do his best and obey the destiny of heaven.

Nala has been looking forward to this grandson for several years, and now he is not holding it hot in his hands, just like that, how can he not be sad?

After all, it is the eldest grandson of the palace, and even the grandmother of Chunwang Fujin is a little unbearable, but there is no other way. Now, I can only ask for medical advice everywhere, hoping for some hope.

Seeing that Cao Hao came to pay New Year's greetings, and did not bring his grandson over, King Chun Fujin and Fang Fujin Nala were a little worried.

After Cao Hao gave everyone a New Year's greeting, King Chun Fujin hurriedly asked, "What about the little brothers?" Why didn't you bring it back? ”

Although Hengsheng is not from Chu Yu, he has followed Chu Yu back to the palace twice before, and King Chun Fujin is also very rare to this grandson.

For Tianyou's own grandson, it is needless to say.

Cao Hao replied: "Because I thought that the two of them would come back with Chu Yu in the sixth year of junior high school, I didn't bring it over today." ”

King Chun Fujin was overjoyed when he heard this, and this sixth day is usually the day when the girl who went out went out returned to her parents' house.

Although she was also pinching her fingers and looking forward to it, because Cao Yin and his wife had spent the New Year in Beijing for the first time in these years, Chu Yu, as a daughter-in-law, was naturally much busier, so she didn't have much hope in her heart.

Now listening to Cao Hao's meaning, Da Gege returned to the province on the sixth day of the first month, and several Fujin brought out a little joy.

Even when the seventh elder brother heard this, his originally tense expression was also relieved......

After the ceremony, Cao Hao accepted the rewards of the elders and accompanied the seventh elder brother to the study in the front yard to speak.

The seventh elder brother sat down by himself, pointed to a chair, asked Cao Hao to sit too, and said, "A few days ago, the medicinal materials you sent to someone have already been used by your nephew. It's hard for you to bother for the New Year. As he spoke, he was a little tired.

Seeing him like this, Cao Hao also felt quite sad in his heart.

Among the several brothers-in-law in King Chun's Mansion, because Hongshu is older, he has the most contact with Cao Hao, and the relationship between the two is particularly close. For this kind-hearted brother-in-law with a generous surname, Cao Hao has always been treated as a younger brother.

I remember that when Tianhui was full moon, Hongshu also said that Cao Hao didn't have to worry about his daughter's future and could be his daughter-in-law.

A few days ago, when his son just landed, Hongshu was also happy, and went over to report the good news to his sister and brother-in-law in person. In front of Cao Hao, he also talked about the feeling of being Amma.

This is only half a month's work, but it is full of waves, and a good child is about to be saved...... After the seventh elder brother finished speaking, he felt that something was wrong. For the New Year, what to do about these things is just uncomfortable.

He rubbed his forehead and said to Cao Hao, "Are your parents okay?" I thought that there would be a banquet in the first month to invite them over, but now that there are more things in the house, I can't take care of this, so you can wait for me to say hello to my in-laws! ”

Cao Hao responded, and the seventh elder brother asked a few more words about his New Year's arrangements.

I heard that there was a "group worship" in Taifu Temple, and the seventh elder brother glanced at the clock placed on the bookcase and said, "Since you are busy, you will go back first." Da Gege and the children, the sixth day of the royal palace will send someone to pick them up. If there's something in your house that isn't cheap, send someone over and tell you about it. ”

"I know, father-in-law, the son-in-law will go back first, and come back to greet his father-in-law in two days." Cao Hao saw that the time was not early, so he took advantage of the situation and said goodbye to the seventh elder brother.

The seventh elder brother was just about to call someone to call the housekeeper so that he could send Cao Hao out, when he heard the little guy outside the door return, and Hongshu came back.

Hongshu didn't look at it much, and smiled and saw it with his brother-in-law.

He ran outside for a long time, and visited his father-in-law's house and his uncle's house before returning.

Cao Hao wanted to go to the Xidan archway, and said a few words to Hongshu, so he didn't stay for a long time and came out of the palace.

Hongshu personally sent him out of the house, thinking about the scene of the little brother, Cao Hao patted Hongshu on the shoulder and said, "If you want to open some and feel uncomfortable, come to find your brother-in-law, and your brother-in-law will accompany you to drink two cups." ”

Hongshu nodded with a wry smile and said, "In the end, my brother-in-law loves me, and I really can't help it." The Chinese New Year made Ama and Eniang uneasy, which is really my blessing and sin ...... But I can only hold on, and I have to have a smiling face in front of people, otherwise if I show something, I'm afraid the Borzigit side will not be able to survive. Earlier, I didn't think that after giving birth to this child, I realized that it was not easy to be a parent. It's really restless to sleep in the middle of the night, I'm afraid of getting up early to hear bad news about my little brother......"

Raising children knows the kindness of their parents, and that's what they say.

Cao Hao has sons and daughters, and has been a "father" for several years, so he is too worried about it. Besides, there is such a thing as Tianhui, comparing his heart to his heart, he can know Hongshu's sadness.

It's a matter of life and death, flesh and blood, and no amount of comfort is empty.

In addition to sighing about the medical level of this era, Cao Hao could only sigh with Hongshu.

When the Chun Wangfu came out, Cao Hao saw that it was not early, so he urged the horse to go to the Xidan archway.

The restaurant here is set by Yidu, and Cao Hao has also been here earlier, and he found it as soon as he looked for it.

In the restaurant, Wang Jingzeng, Yi Duli, Tang Zhiyu and the subordinate officials of Taifu Temple have already arrived. Everyone was already seated, drinking tea, gossiping, and waiting for Cao Hao to come to the banquet.

Seeing that Cao Hao had finally arrived, everyone got up, threw up their sleeves to greet the New Year, gave up their hands, and did whatever they wanted.

Yi Duli added a little joy to his face, and hurriedly beckoned Xiao Er to come over and prepare for the opening of the table.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Cao Hao was a little ashamed, hugged his fists and made amends to everyone, and said: "I am entangled in family affairs and mundane affairs, and I am really sorry for you." ”

Everyone laughed and said, "Your Excellency is polite!" ”

Wang Jingzeng followed everyone to get up and greet Cao Hao, but he was a little reluctant in his heart.

Tang Zhiyu smiled and did not respond. Only Yi Duli was most familiar with Cao Hao, and said to Cao Hao with a smile: "My lord, you can't make amends with empty words." Three glasses of wine is indispensable, and you have to ......"

Speaking of this, he happened to see the offerings in front of the statue of the God of Wealth arched in the lobby of the restaurant, so he said: "I also have to come up with something real to let everyone get the joy of the New Year." Daoxiang Village's dumplings, five catties per person, the big guy said it was good? ”

In the last sentence, he asked his colleagues in the hall.

Beijing officials are poor, and low-grade Beijing officials are even poorer.

The low-grade Beijing officials who are also Qingshui Yamen have little income and large expenses, and there are no such things as "Bing Jing" and "Tan Jing", and some of them are not as solid as ordinary people.

For the dim sum in Daoxiang Village, some people have really only heard of it, but have never eaten it.

After listening to Yiduli's words, many people made amusement, and they heard a chorus of harmony.

Knowing that several chief officials were not mean, some people asked with a smile: "Is it okay to change the Lantern Festival or box dishes?" It just so happens that the Lantern Festival is the occasion to cook rice balls and eat meat! ”

Whether it is the dumplings in Daoxiang Village or the box dishes in the butcher shop, the market will not open until the sixth day of the first month. Stay at home for a few days, just enough to have a good holiday.

Yi Duli looked at Cao Hao with a smile and said, "Haha, since that's the case, everyone will pay more respect to our Lord Cao, and if it doesn't work, it will be done!" ”

Cao Hao was speechless, nodded at everyone with a smile, and said: "There are Lantern Festival, there are also box dishes, although I want to talk about my heart, but if I am reckless, I will look down on everyone." In this way, I thought of a way to see if I could find some welfare money from the yamen account. One copy in the yamen, I personally give one copy, but the yamen has not been printed fifteen years ago, and when the time comes, whether it will be sent to the house of the lords, or everyone will take it from the yamen, please take it for yourself. ”

When everyone heard this, they applauded.

Only Wang Jing was by his side, and he felt like he was left out, and he didn't feel good in his heart. He listened to the familiarity of "Daoxiang Village", and thought that it seemed to be the property of the county lord and wife of Cao Hao, and he couldn't help frowning.

Other officials originally had a shelf and were unwilling to receive the chief's salute. Now that I have heard this arrangement, I also feel that I have all the face, and I have a little sincere joy on my face.

In the midst of the bustle, the New Year's Day banquet of the Yamen of the Taifu Temple began...... * Fucha Mansion, the living room.

Fu Nai and Ilgen Jue Luo sat in the hall, looking at Cao Song with a smile. Ilgen Jue Luo said a few words of homely things, and then asked about Jinghui's current situation.

Although the sixth day of the first month is said to be the son of the married girl returning to the door, Jinghui is the new daughter-in-law, and it is when the in-law's family makes rules, and it is not easy for Ilgen to say that Luo is not good to ask someone to pick up his niece's daughter.

However, having said that, Jinghui was out of the pavilion on the sixteenth day of the lunar month, and on the third day of the first month, it was "Double Nine", and on the sixteenth day of the first month, it was to live in the "opposite month".

In this way, even if you can't pick it up on the sixth day of the new year, it's only a few days late, although Ilgen Jueluo said that he wanted his niece, but when he thought of this, he didn't feel anxious.

"Uncle, it's just over the Lantern Festival, that is, you live in the 'opposite moon', so can you send someone to pick Jinghui back? In addition to this side of the house, the old lady in Fangjia Hutong has to go back to see. After all, the old man is in his eighties, and he is worried about his granddaughter. Ilgen Jue Roche said.

Cao Song heard that it was the sixteenth day of the first month, and remembered that the uncle had separated after the fifteenth day of the first month.

After hesitating for a moment, he raised his head and said, "Father-in-law, mother-in-law, I'm afraid that the sixteenth day of the first month will not work, and the son who lives in the 'opposite month' will be pushed back for a while." ”

Ilgen Jue Luo was surprised when he heard this, and said with a little puzzlement: "Why do you want to postpone it?" Isn't it just a daughter-in-law in your house, and she is too busy to leave. ”

Cao Song did not return to Ilgenjue's question, but continued: "Father-in-law, mother-in-law, after the Lantern Festival, our family is separated, and when the time comes, we will be busy working, I am afraid that I will not be able to take care of the 'opposite moon' for a while, so the son-in-law said to see if it can be delayed." ”

Ilgen felt that Luo was already stunned, and Fu Nai was also full of surprise, and asked after a while, "What is this called?" Is it a 'separation'? ”

Cao Song squeezed out a smile and nodded easily.

Fu Nai grabbed the handle of the chair, frowned, and asked, "Why did you break up the family so much?" But what's naughty about your brother that annoys your uncle? Still is...... Or does your uncle want to save his worries, and under the pretext that your brothers are married, he proposes to split up the family......"

Cao Song listened to the front and wondered if he should nod.

When he heard that Cao Yin was involved, he waved his hand vigorously and said, "Father-in-law, don't misunderstand, it was the son-in-law who mentioned the separation." Starting a family, starting a family, I'm twenty-one years old, it's not good to rely on my uncle for a lifetime. ”

When Fu Nai heard this, his expression calmed down slightly, shook his head, and said, "That's right, it's just too reckless." The capital is not as deep as Jiangning, the water is deep, you take the risk of splitting up your family to be the head of the family, and you can't grasp the proportions, at least it is to ruin wealth and avoid disasters, and at worst it is a big sin of raiding the family and exterminating the clan. ”

Speaking of this, he looked at Cao Song and said, "It just so happens that I want to go to your house tomorrow, or I will talk to your uncle and talk about the 'separation' slowly." It's better to wait until your two little brothers are married. ”

Cao Song saw Fu Nai talking to himself, and hurriedly got up and said: "Thank you father-in-law for your heart, but in the end, it is a son-in-law's family matter, and it is not good to work too hard for your father-in-law." After the son-in-law begged repeatedly, the uncle had already nodded, and also mentioned that he wanted to ask the father-in-law and the uncle of the son-in-law to be Chinese. The son-in-law has nothing else to ask for, but only asks his father-in-law to help him share the fairness when he witnesses for the Chinese. ”

"Fair?" Fu Nai muttered, with a strange look on his face: "No, your uncle is not that kind of person, where will he treat your brothers badly?" ”

Cao Song shook his head vigorously and said, "My father-in-law misunderstood, the son-in-law is not afraid that the uncle will treat us badly, but that the uncle will be biased towards us because he pities our brother." Over the years, I have been taken care of by my uncle a lot, how can I be thick-skinned and take more of anything? ”

Hearing Cao Song's words, Fu Nai was a little moved, nodded to Cao Song, and said, "Don't be greedy for money, know how to be grateful, Jinghui didn't marry the wrong person......
