Chapter 440: Gradual

On the way home, Cao Hao and Chu Yu had their own thoughts. Cao Hao took Chu Yu's hand, very satisfied. Although men are willing to look at beautiful women twice, how can the blessings of Qi people be so enjoyable?

Iduri wants to send his wife back to the house to settle down, and he has to go back to comfort the outer room, I'm afraid I'll have to be busy.

Chu Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time was a little more grateful to Cao Hao. Although she has been married for four years, she has also been worried and cranky, but now that she has Tianhui, she has gradually returned to calm.

Thinking of her past worries, she couldn't help but feel a little ashamed, why couldn't she trust her husband, and put on a jealous posture? If the husband really has that thought, do you have to wait until now?

This farce of wives and concubines made the young husband and wife have their own understandings.

I really didn't expect that the farce outside didn't start, but the house began to make a fuss.

As soon as he entered the gate, he saw that the chief housekeeper Cao Zhongzheng sent someone to send a car, saying that Zhaojia's was sick and wanted to pick up the imperial doctor.

Cao Hao and Chu Yu were both startled, before the little couple went out this morning, they had also been to the Peony Courtyard, and Zhao Jia's looked fine at that time, how can this be said to be sick?

Because it was a matter in the inner house, Cao Zhong didn't know it really here, and only said that it was the green chrysanthemum girl in the second wife's house who made people go to the second door.

This is strange again, although I won't look for Amethyst because of the matter in the second room of the stove, but there are still Cao Song and Cao Shuo and their brothers, why is it a girl to ask for a doctor?

Cao Hao and Chu Yu hurriedly entered the second gate and went to the Peony Courtyard.

The room was a mess, with vase fragments all over the floor, and hair that had been scattered half on the ground, and Green Ju was cleaning it up with a broom. Zhao Jia's face was pale, lying on the kang with a bun on his head. Seeing Cao Hao and his wife come in, she struggled and wanted to get up.

Chu Yu glanced at the hair on the ground in surprise, stepped forward to help Zhao Jia's, and asked with concern, "Second aunt, why is this uncomfortable?" It's good to get up early, and the front yard has already sent someone to pick up the doctor, and it will be there in a while. ”

Zhao Jiashi listened to Chu Yu's question, his lips trembled twice, tears were already left in his eyes, and he choked up: "I really don't have a bad heart!" If I can't tolerate people, won't I send it away early after the old man breathes? Will she keep her for the lord for three years? It's just that it's almost time for the old man to be filial, so I asked casually, and I didn't force her to remarry immediately, but she wanted to twist her hair and keep the festival. ”

These words had no beginning or end, and Cao Hao and Chu Yu began to hear it for a while.

At the end, the little couple realized that they were talking about Cao Quan's two concubines.

Among the two, Aunt Baodie gave birth to a son, so she naturally has to guard her son, there is no reason to leave the house, and the rest is Aunt Jade.

Jade is the son of the Cao family, and her brother's brother is an errand boy in Jiangning's house.

This is a private matter between the wives and concubines of the second room, and it is not easy for Chu Yu and Cao Hao to talk about it.

In fact, the little couple of them are still a little confused. Even if Jade wants to observe the festival, it won't make Zhao Jia's look like a mourner?

After Zhao Jia's crying, seeing that Chu Yu was silent, he grabbed her hand and said, "Nephew and daughter-in-law, tell me, I just asked, is it a big sin?" Baodie's mother and son came to me, crying and begging, Song'er's muddy boy, dared to throw my face...... said that I wiped his face, and in the future he supported the door, and his aunt came to feed him, so I didn't need to worry about it...... What are these words? Is it not that he was born to me, and there is not a word of this to my ......?"

But the more he talked, the more aggrieved he became, tears fell in a stream, and Zhao Jiashi was already whimpering and speechless.

Cao Hao saw that the typhoon in the house was passing through, and it was not easy for him, as a nephew, to directly ask Zhao Jia's details. Therefore, he motioned to Chu Yu to take good care of Zhao Jia's family, and he turned around and went out to find Cao Song.

Zhao Jia's words are endless, but Cao Hao can be regarded as understanding.

Cao Quan was not born on the tenth day of June in the fifty-first year of Kangxi, although it is said that Zhaojia and the children have to keep filial piety for three years, but in fact, according to the etiquette law, they only need to keep it for twenty-seven months.

Originally, it was supposed to be removed from filial piety on the tenth day of September this year, but because last year was a leap month, it was removed from filial piety on the tenth day of August this year.

Today is July 26, and there is only half a month left.

Zhao Jia's family somehow remembered to send Jade, after all, she was just a concubine, and she had no children, and she didn't have the reason to be widowed all the time. Jade seems to be dry, and even her hair is twisted.

Because Zhaojia's family has always been domineering in the second room, it must have scared Baodie's mother and son, but she couldn't accommodate the concubine, so she had to be sent away, so she came to the Shaoyuan to plead.

I don't know how Cao Song came out and what he said, making decisions for his mother and brothers, so he made Zhaojia angry.

When I entered the Huaiyuan, I saw the jade dragon standing under the porch, with a little worry on her face.

Seeing Cao Hao coming in, Jade Dragon leaned over to salute, and then opened his mouth through the bamboo curtain to say: "Second master......"

Before the words "uncle is here" were spoken, Cao Song was heard shouting in the room: "It's all said, I'm fine, you have nothing to do and go and rest, what are you talking about?" ”

Jade Dragon bit her lip and didn't say anything more.

Cao Hao waved his hand at the jade dragon, sent her down, picked up the curtain by himself, and entered the house.

On the West House kang, Cao Song sat cross-legged, but there was a wine jar and a tea cup at hand. His face was gloomy, and he didn't know what to think, so he poured himself a glass, pondered for a while, and drank it all with his neck up; Then pour another glass, and it will be the same.

Cao Hao stood at the door and watched for a long time, but Cao Song didn't look this way.

Cao Hao saw his brother drinking like this, afraid that he would hurt his body, so he stepped forward and said, "It's just some housework, which makes you worry like this?" ”

Cao Song found out that Cao Hao was coming, I don't know if he was drunk, or he was sentimental, his eyes were red, and he muttered: "Brother! ”

Cao Hao sat on the side of the kang, Cao Song was full of wine, and he must have drunk a lot.

Cao Hao stretched out his hand and slipped down the wine jar, this is a five-pound bottle, and now it has gone down halfway, although the degree of this wine is not as high as that of later generations, but after all, drinking too much will hurt the body.

"How old are you, and you still don't care about it like this, what problem can you solve by drinking these wines? Let the junior and senior laugh at you for being your brother's nest. Cao Hao frowned and said.

Cao Song pursed his face, looked at Cao Hao, and said, "Brother, my brother doesn't want to take the martial arts test!" ”

Cao Hao listened, raised his eyebrows, and asked, "If you don't take the martial arts test, do you want to be an errand?" Speaking of this, he thought for a while and said, "Are you afraid that you will be admitted and you won't be able to stay in the capital, and you won't be able to see Jinghui and their grandchildren?" ”

Cao Song nodded and said, "Well, it's also this, and it's not all this." Elder brother, younger brother wants to find an errand to earn a share of silver and rice, and it is good to eat white food at home, but it is not good to use the money of his brother and sister-in-law to do favors. ”

Silver is just a number for Cao Hao. He didn't take it to heart, and naturally he wouldn't worry about Cao Song. However, Cao Song was still very happy to think of this.

In the past two years, he has regretted a little, and he shouldn't have indulged in the second big deal in the past few years. It is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift, he doesn't want to get used to it because he loves his younger brother.

Cao Song is already twenty, and he is not too young to be on an errand now. Speaking of which, Cao Hao was reluctant to leave his eyes.

Although Cao Song's child's surname is in his heart, Cao Hao can't borrow any strength from him, but the two brothers have been close since childhood. Speaking of which, in Cao Hao's heart, his feelings for Cao Song are deeper than those for his blood-related brother Cao Shun.

Seeing that he wanted to be on an errand, Cao Hao nodded and agreed, thinking about the relationship between these people and seeing if he could make up for it to the guards. If the guard can't make up for it, there will be the guard camp and the pioneer camp.

Cao Song saw his brother nodding, but his face did not show joy, but hesitated for a moment, and said, "Brother, if I give up the title to the junior, will my mother still force me to marry my cousin?" ”

Cao Hao listened to this, but it was wrong. It is true that the title of this family is inherited by the eldest son, but it is not only the title that is inherited, but also the responsibilities of the family and the obligations of the parents.

Cao Hao was also against the marriage of the Shilang Mansion in his heart, so he also acquiesced in Cao Song's overtures to Jinghui. However, if for the sake of the girl he likes, he even shirks the responsibility of taking his family and eldest son and eldest brother, which is not what Cao Hao wants.

"What do you mean by that? Want to get out of the house, want to be a son-in-law? Cao Hao faintly felt a little angry, if Xiao Er was so irresponsible, then he would want to kick him twice.

Cao Song listened, shook his head hurriedly, and said, "I don't mean that!" I'm thinking about my mother's always thinking about finding me a high-ranking daughter-in-law, which has something to do with my father's title. If the title is given to the junior, then my daughter-in-law is from a low background, so I'm afraid I will let it go. ”

Cao Hao saw that Cao Song said simply, angrily, and funny, and said, "If you give up the title, you are not your mother's son?" Isn't it the eldest brother of the junior and fourth? Thinking about something, even if it is an idea, you should think of something reliable. ”

Cao Song bowed his head and said, "There aren't many days left, aren't you in a hurry?" ”

Cao Hao remembered the fragments of the vase he had just seen in the upper room of the Peony Courtyard, and said, "Why are you honest now?" I heard that you just showed your might. ”

Cao Song looked stunned and asked, "Brother knows, is my mother still angry?" ”

"Let your sister-in-law take care of it over there, and I've already sent someone to take over the doctor!" Cao Hao replied.

"Imperial Doctor?" Cao Song's face was a little more worried, and said, "Mother is okay, right?" ”

Cao Hao glared at him and said, "If there is something to do, I will only know until the doctor comes to see it." You too, even if you have a long waist, you have to be more leisurely. In the end, you are old, if you are really angry, you will regret that there will be no place to take the medicine! ”

Cao Song stretched out his hand, touched his neck, and said, "I saw my aunt crying pitifully, and my mother was really too much when she talked about this!" ”

Although Cao Song has been kind-hearted since he was a child, he is sympathetic to the weak, which Cao Hao is very pleased with. But for his reckless behavior, Cao Hao disagreed.

This intensifies the conflict, and in the future, Zhaojia's family will only get along with the two aunts, and they will only become more and more uncomfortable.

But one side is a strong biological mother, and the other side is a weak mother-in-law, how to mediate, Cao Hao himself can't say.

However, he disagreed with the matter of making a knight.

Let's not talk about whether the title and the obligations of the eldest son are transferred to Cao Shuo, whether it is a good thing or a bad thing for Cao Shuo. Let's just say that Cao Song will be at home in the future, with the name of the eldest son, but not the fact of the eldest son, and there will be problems when brothers get along with each other in the future, isn't there nothing to look for?

Cao Song was able to think about Jinghui a lot, and Cao Hao was also a little moved in his heart.

Thinking of Yi Duli's wife who met today, Cao Hao said: "Either you go to the second aunt first and tell the truth, even if you don't want to marry your cousin, let the second aunt know that you have talents in your heart." Jinghui is the niece of your sixth aunt, and she chatters with her second aunt first, so that she has a bottom in her heart. Jinghui's parents and uncle are gone, but there are still many dignitaries in the clan. It's really not good, let's spend some money and look for good relatives for Jinghui from the Dong E clan. ”

Cao Song listened, raised his head and said, "Brother......"

Cao Hao thought about it for a while, and said: "Brother can help you as much as he wants, the key depends on yourself." The second aunt wanted to persuade and coax, but she couldn't make too much trouble and hurt the relationship between mother and son. Filial piety comes first, if you forget your parents' kindness, how is it different from animals? Although it is said that you are marrying a daughter-in-law, it should be your heart. But this inner house is a place for mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to get along, and it is not a fault for the second aunt to find a suitable daughter-in-law for herself. But there is one thing, you have to know, whether you can live a peaceful life in the end depends on your own dedication. The daughter-in-law must be painful, and the mother must be filial, even if she is a little tired and tired, since she is a man, she must be responsible. Don't say anything in the future, or I'll really kick you! ”
