Chapter 270: Shine on the Breeze

The two sons of the Liu family refer to Liu Heng and the Liu family. After Chu Yu came back, he knew that Tianyou vomited milk, thanks to the Liu family, he was very grateful and prepared a heavy gift.

The Liu family didn't dare to accept it, and it was not until they went home and asked their husbands that they thanked them gratefully. However, when he looked at Tianyou, his expression was very reluctant, which made people look very pitiful.

Chu Yu heard that her child died a few years ago, and she also sighed in her heart. Cao Hao heard Amethyst mention the old man "Liu Heng", and after thinking about it for a long time, he didn't remember hearing this name. After hearing Amethyst mention that the person ruined half of his handsome face, Cao Hao remembered that a person surnamed Liu came, it was the famous singer in the capital who Gege Baoya of Pingjun Wangfu fell in love with a few years ago - Liu Zidan.

It's just that now his legs and feet are inconvenient, and it's really hard to see people, whether it is Liu Zidan or someone else, so I have to determine it later.

Hearing that Chu Yu naturally regarded Liu Heng and his wife as subordinates, Cao Hao felt slightly awkward in his heart, and said with a smile: "They are not from our house, they have already given a thank you gift, where do you need our reward?" ”

Chu Yu hesitated for a while, and Fang said: "I didn't see the Liu family's look at Tianyou's eyes, although she only had a few days of hard work, but looking at her didn't seem to be fake, it really hurt in my heart." Chu Yu thought about it, Mama is getting older, and Tianyou always needs to have someone around to watch. If they are from a pure white family, it is also good to let the Liu family come to our house to do ** for Tianyou! ”

Cao Hao was surprised when he heard it, Chu Yu has always been his own milk Tianyou, how can he think about it now to find ** for Tianyou? Thinking about these two days again, it seems that I have also found the Liu family's house.

After carefully looking at Chu Yu's eyes, he found that she had applied powder, and her eye circles were a little dark, Cao Hao was a little worried, and asked, "But your body has not been in good shape recently?" This can't be delayed! As he spoke, he called Xiyun and asked her to send someone to the front yard and ask Cao Fang to send someone to invite the doctor over.

Chu Yu said "It's not in the way", but Cao Hao's face was not good-looking, and he frowned and said: "You and I are husband and wife, what else is there to hide!" You don't like to dress up, but you're not feeling well, how can you drag it out? ”

has been married for two years, and this is the first time Cao Hao has spoken loudly to Chu Yu.

Chu Yu didn't expect Cao Hao to reprimand herself, and she couldn't come back to her senses in a daze, but the heavenly blessing in her arms seemed to be gone, and she cried "wow".

For a while, Tianyou's cry was extremely loud. Cao Hao couldn't cry or laugh, could it be that his son was protecting his mother?

With the loud "wow" sound of Tianyou, Mama Ye heard the movement in the east house and hurried over. Chu Yu was holding Tianyou, coaxing, and it took a while to stop him crying.

Although I don't know why, Mama Ye also heard Cao Hao's voice here, and after coming in, she saw that the faces of the two masters were not good, so she took Tianyou from Chu Yu's hands and went back to the East House.

Looking at Chu Yu's uneasy face, Cao Hao regretted a little, what did she do? was thinking about how to apologize, when I heard Chu Yu whisper: "Don't be annoyed, Chu Yu's body is fine, it's just ...... It's just that these few days of milk are a little insufficient......" In the end, his face was already flushed, and his voice was low and inaudible.

What else can there be, it must be that I was tired of taking care of myself a few days ago. Cao Hao was very distressed, looked at Chu Yu and said, "What am I annoyed about? It's just that I can't see that you have something in your heart! I was confused and out of proportion, I can't help it! ”

Although she became a mother, Chu Yu was young and tender after all, and said with a red face: "I wanted to talk to the same forehead, but ...... But some can't tell! ”

Cao Hao thought about it for a while and said, "You are tired, wait for the doctor to come, ask him to prescribe a prescription!" If you look at the Liu family's good, let's discuss with them and see if their husband and wife are willing to enter the house! I'm really not happy, it's good to come a few more times in this period! ”

It's not that he wants a free man to become a servant of the Cao family, but it's really that his precious son is too expensive, and if he is handed over to someone outside, he really doesn't feel at ease. Although now, his son is not his lifeline, but looking at Chu Yu, he revolves around Tianyou every day, and designates it as Chu Yu's lifeline.

In fact, in his heart, there is still an idea, that is, to send Tianyou to Jiangning, so as to save the Li family and Cao Yin from being lonely in their later years. However, now that the child is young, he can't bear to let Chu Yu be separated from his son. I have been calculating in my heart, thinking that Cao Quan's filial piety period is over, Chu Yu is eighteen years old, if she can get pregnant as soon as possible, and when she gives birth to a second child, she will send her eldest son to Jiangning.

Thinking of these, Cao Hao was also conflicted, not only wanting his parents to not be lonely at night, but also unwilling for Chu Yu to suffer from childbirth. Fortunately, there is still more than half a year of filial piety, how to choose, and now there is no need to have a headache.

After a while, the doctor invited him, and Amethyst also got a letter.

Chu Yu is not simply tired, according to the doctor, it is because of "fright" that there is less milk. If you want milk, you need to carefully adjust for a while, in addition to prescribing a soothing prescription, the doctor also prescribed two medicinal diets that benefit milk.

When Amethyst and Mama Ye heard this, they knew that the ** blessed by God could not be found, but they didn't know whether the masters wanted to use the Liu family, or find another one outside.

After the doctor left, Cao Hao also thought about this problem, if he really let the Liu family enter the mansion, then the details of "Liu Heng" should be known.

I have also sent people to inquire in the past few days, but I have no gain, I only know the Yizhou accent of the Liu family, and I came back with my husband last year. Although I don't know the identity of "Liu Heng", I look at the Liu family very respectful to him. The husband and wife can also be regarded as love.

It seems that it is necessary to see the first. Cao Hao took the idea and asked someone to find two family members in front of him and carry him to the front yard. Chu Yu and Amethyst both persuaded him to come here if he wanted to see anyone.

Cao Hao was thinking about the affairs in the yamen, Mr. Zhuang had not come back in Mengyin, and there was no one in charge, so he had accumulated more than half a month of official duties. Just taking advantage of the meeting guests, I took care of the official food over there, and I still went to the front.

Chu Yu was afraid that the room in front of him would not be warm, so he found a big wool cloak and tied it to Cao Hao, and asked someone to send a charcoal basin to the front yard.

* When he arrived in the front yard, Cao Hao sat in the study and called Cao Fang to bring a post to invite "Liu Heng", and if the other party agreed, he invited the other party to Daotai Mansion for tea; If the other party shirks, don't be reluctant, try to find an opportunity to ask the details.

Cao Fang responded, and went down to ask someone not to mention it.

Cao Hao flipped through the court newspaper on the case, because of the heavy snow this winter and the inconvenience of the road, what he is reading now is still sent down in the middle of the month.

First of all, in November (the fourth day of the first month), Zhang Chunnu, the martyr of Shandong, was not disgraced, and died tragically, and gave Yinjianfang as an example. Cao Hao had also heard about this, and when he arrived at Jinan Mansion on the tenth day of the first month, the will of this table also arrived, and when they entered the city, they saw the people of the yamen blowing and beating, beating gongs and drums to Zhang Chun's house. Hundreds of people heard the sound and came out to see the excitement, all saying that the Zhang family was decent, the ancestors were virtuous, and there were martyrs.

It's really boring, Cao Hao doesn't know what Kangxi thinks, although he is very protective of the Han people and Han Chen, but he admires Confucian culture to the extreme. not only treated the descendants of Confucius well, but also under the guise of "benevolence and filial piety" to govern the country, and also demanded extra strict requirements for the hundred officials of the clan.

The next one is Yiyou (the sixth day of the first month) Langzhong Ming'an of the Ministry of Promotion for the left deputy capital of the Imperial History, looking at the name of "Ming'an", Cao Hao couldn't help but be stunned. Ming'an is Ning Chun's boss, who was originally in the post of Wailang, and went to Baoding last spring to drill wells to fight drought, and made a meritorious contribution and was promoted to Langzhong.

It's only been a year and a half, and he has been promoted from Langzhong of the fifth grade to the left deputy capital of the Imperial Palace of the Metropolitan Inspection Institute of the third grade, and the promotion speed is really faster.

Cao Hao felt that something was wrong, if no one took care of him, how could Ming'an be promoted so quickly? But earlier in the capital, he had also seen Ming An, a man in his forties, who treated people very tactfully. Because he is Ning Chun's boss, he is also concerned about his behavior, and I have not heard of his background. Even when he was promoted from a foreigner, everyone just thought that it was the credit of fighting drought, not that someone supported it.

Although you shouldn't be suspicious of people at will, but Ning Chun's case really has no clue, and Cao Hao has to pay attention everywhere.

Thinking in his heart, Cao Hao poured some tea into the inkstone, sharpened some ink by himself, took a pen and paper to write a letter to his brother-in-law, and asked him to help pay attention to this Ming'an to see if there was anything wrong.

Cao Hao picked up the pen and wrote two sentences, and saw Cao Fang come to tell him, saying that Liu Heng had been invited and was waiting outside.

Cao Hao put down his pen and said, "Invite him in!" Cao Fang went out in response.

One time later, when Cao Fang came in again, he was followed by a gray-haired man. Amethyst only mentioned to Cao Hao that her appearance was abnormal, and she didn't say anything about her hair. Therefore, when Cao Hao saw it, he only thought wrong in front of him.

You must know that although Liu Zidan has been popular in the capital for several years, when he fled from the capital that year, he was only ten years old, and he is only in his early twenties now, where can he be so old?

However, the moment he saw Liu Heng, Cao Hao knew that he was indeed not wrong, the gray hair in front of him and half of his cheeks were scars, it was Liu Zidan.

Seeing Cao Hao sitting there, Liu Zidan hugged his fists slightly and said, "Liu Heng, the person who drifted away, has seen Cao Ye!" ”

The whole face, looking weird. Cao Hao didn't want to be rude, so he only glanced at it, then looked away, pointed to the chair in the study with a smile, and said, "Old Liu...... Mr. Liu took a seat. Meeting an old friend in a foreign country is also a happy event in life, just sit down and talk! After speaking, he called someone to show the tea to the guests.

Accidentally, I almost called out "Boss Liu", but thinking that he was now a good family, he changed his words.

As early as when he was in the Pingjun Palace, Cao Hao had met Liu Heng a few times, and his name was still Liu Zidan at that time. Because the sixteenth elder brother likes to listen to the opera, the two of them also went to the opera garden to give Liu Zidan a scene.

Because the sixteenth elder brother concealed his identity, some rewards need Cao Hao to come out, Liu Zidan once came out, served tea twice, thanked Cao Hao for his reward, and also said two scenes with the sixteenth elder brother. If it weren't for the difference in identity and the fact that he hadn't opened a mansion, I was afraid that the sixteenth elder brother would ask him to teach him quyi.

Cao Hao behaved like this, but Liu Heng was a little surprised, and after the tea was served, he sat down on the chair with a little restraint.

Although the world looked down on the actor Youling at that time, where did Cao Hao have this concept? Although he was just mediocre about listening to the play, thinking about Baoya, Cao Hao only had sympathy for him.

It's just that Youling is also a human being, with a face, Cao Hao's sympathy is only buried in his heart, but his face is not visible at all.

The guests and hosts sat down, and the atmosphere was slightly silent. Although the two have met a few times, they only say hello to An, and they have no other friendship. Now sitting together, I really can't find something to say.

As the master, Cao Hao had nothing to say, and said: "In the early years, I heard that Mr. Liu left Beijing, but I didn't expect to meet in Yizhou, which can be regarded as fate. Small...... My little cousin would be glad to know that he was here. He is a big drama fan, and he loves to listen to Mr.'s jokes the most! ”

Liu Heng thought for a while and asked, "But the young master who went to the Zhejiang Hall twice with Cao Ye?" According to the villain, that master has a loud voice and learns drama very quickly, even in the industry, there are few people so smart! ”

Aren't the goblins smart? Thinking of the grand wish that the sixteenth elder brother had said, one of which was to open the mansion and reserve the opera team, Cao Hao also had a smile on his face, and the two spoke more casually.

Although Liu Heng was born lowly, he grew up in the palace after all, and the people he saw after leaving the mansion were all powerful members of the clan, and his behavior was elegant and polite. Even if he disfigured his face and wore old clothes, he still did not look humble at all.

After saying that, there is no embarrassment of Fang Cai. Cao Hao sighed and extinguished the idea of letting the Liu family and his wife enter the mansion. Not to mention, the other party seems to be a proud person, not like he is willing to be a servant; is thinking about his young age, but he has been despised and despised for half his life. Now that he is a little common man, it is also his blessing.

Unexpectedly, after a few words of gossip, Liu Heng took the initiative to speak: "Master Cao, the villain is cheeky and comes to the door, and he really has something to ask for!" ”

Cao Hao thought of what Cao Fang said, thought about it in his heart, and said, "Mr. Liu, let's talk about it!" If it is within Cao's ability, he will do his best! ”

Because I heard Cao Fang mention it before, according to the previous visit, Liu Heng was seriously injured because he offended people, and he was raised for several months, which made his livelihood difficult and his son died. Come to think of it, this should be the case.

Liu Heng heard that Cao Hao had no intention of shirking, stood up, bowed down and said, "Thank you Cao Ye for being generous!" If Cao Ye doesn't think the villain is humble and lowly, the villain is willing to vote under Cao Ye! ”

Cao Hao looked at him, and did not immediately agree or refuse, and was a little hesitant in his heart.

Even if he wanted them to enter the mansion, it was just to see that his wife had a fate with Tianyou, but he couldn't think about Liu Heng's placement. His identity is sensitive and he should not be seen in front of people; But how can this body be a rough servant? The housekeeper's account room and other servants are all born to the Cao family.

Liu Heng seemed to be really in trouble, and when he saw that Cao Hao didn't respond, he bent his knees and wanted to kneel.

Cao Hao hurriedly said: "Wait! ”

But it didn't stop, Liu Heng still knelt. Cao Hao didn't like to be like this, so he turned sideways and slightly avoided to the side, and asked Zhengse: "Mr. Liu, please get up!" I don't know why Mr. Liu has this idea? You and I are just general friends, and it is too hasty to hand over the surname to Cao like this! ”

Liu Heng smiled bitterly: "If the villain cleverly says that it is to repay his kindness, it is estimated that Cao Ye will only treat it as a joke." But the villain is indeed blessed a lot by Cao Ye! Last year, when the epidemic occurred, I was unfortunately infected, but fortunately, there was a prescription that spread early, and I escaped the catastrophe; Yizhou is short of grain this spring, just when the insiders are producing, a family of three, but relying on the villain to make some money as a buddy in the study, where can I afford to buy rice grain? It is still thanks to Cao Ye's blessing, which stabilized the price of food, so that there are a few fewer starving ghosts in this world; At the beginning of the month, the family stopped cooking, and it was thanks to the soup kitchen and rice gifts from the Daotai Mansion that the villain and Neiko barely made ends meet. In this way, although I didn't have to see Cao Ye in person, it was a real life-saving grace to go back. Speaking of this, he paused and said: "If there is no matter of the little young master looking for a nursing mother, even if the villain remembers the kindness of Cao Ye in his heart, but he is humble and humble, and he still has no shame to seek refuge!" Because the villain is already a wasted person, Neiko is just an orphan girl who had no intention of helping each other years ago, and she is vulgar and unbearable. Now, not only can I follow Cao Ye to eat well, but I can also do my best, and I will be cheeky in the future! ”

Cao Hao waved his hand and said, "No matter what, you get up and speak first." It's so uncomfortable! ”

Seeing Liu Heng get up, Cao Hao glanced at him and asked, "Since you want to come to my door, there are some private matters, so I have to ask carefully first!" ”

Liu Heng was very obedient and said: "Cao Ye has asked something, and the villain doesn't dare to hide it!" ”

Cao Hao said: "Although I have no intention of peeping at people's privacy, Cao still wants to figure out the reason why you left Beijing." ”

Liu Heng sighed and talked about the past two years ago.

Among them, Cao Hao listened to the secrets of the palace, and only felt cold in his body. But after all, it's someone else's story, and I don't pay much attention to it. It's just that when I heard Liu Heng say that he was seriously injured and became a waste person who was neither male nor female, and he didn't want to stay in the capital anymore, when Fang ran out, he felt a little wrong and asked, "Mrs. Zun......"

"It's just a nominal husband and wife, she is also a hard-working person!" Liu Heng said, "I was an orphan girl, I was bullied, I was pregnant, I was afraid of being punished by my clansmen, so I ran out!"
