Chapter 947: Early Spring
Matsuin, upper room.
"Brother wants to play chess?" Hengsheng stared at his brother in front of him with wide eyes, and said ignorantly: "Chess? The next five ways? Or is it a game of chess? Where am I my brother's opponent? Except for my aunt, my brother is the most powerful. ”
Tianyou originally came to relieve his younger brother, saying that he wanted to play chess with his younger brother but by his son.
Seeing him say this now, Tianyou showed a little tiredness and said: "Then don't go down, it's too boring to read continuously." ”
"Brother tired? Then I'll give my eldest brother a slap on the shoulder? Hengsheng said, already got up, walked around behind Tianyou, waved his small fist, and hammered his shoulder.
Because when Cao Hao was tired, Hengsheng often beat his father's shoulder with his legs, so this set of movements was very smooth.
Tianyou only felt comfortable, squinting his eyes, and had the majesty of "eldest brother like father".
A maid came in at the door and said with a smile: "Second master, the hot book has been prepared." ”
She is Le Zi, who used to be an errand boy in Wutong Garden, and is now waiting for Hengsheng to live in Songyuan.
Hearing what she said, Hengsheng stopped and said, "Brother, I just went to the school field, I was sweating, so I went to bathe and change clothes first." ”
Tianyou waved his hand and told him to go by himself, and then left Le Zi and asked, "How are the two second masters in their mood?" Is there something wrong? ”
Le Zi was stunned when she heard this, thought about it for a while, and replied: "The slave is in a good mood when she sees the second master, but because the uncle lives with the uncle and the second master Cheng are busy with schoolwork, the second master is unwilling to spare the master to study, and he will stay on the school field for a longer time." I think it took a lot of effort, and the two meals were two bowls more than usual. ”
When Tianyou heard this, he couldn't help frowning, and said, "Two more bowls?" Why do you give him so much to eat, and what if he has accumulated food? ”
Le Zi had long known that his two masters had a good relationship, and after being assigned to Songyuan on an errand, he felt the same way.
The two brothers have lived and eaten together for as long as they can remember, and they did not separate until this year. Although he is only one year old, Tianyou is not at ease with this younger brother, and he has to ask about it from food to housing. It doesn't look like he's an older brother, but like a father.
"Back to the uncle's words, the old lady asked yesterday, and the later imperial doctor showed the second master, saying that it was okay, and the second master was when he was growing tall." Le Zi replied.
She is the son of the Cao family, and before she entered Wutong Garden on an errand, she had heard about the two masters. One is the eldest son, the other is the adopted son, and among the people of Cao Fu, they know who the son of Allah is. Although no one dared to snub Hengsheng openly, there was no respect in private, only sighing that his life was good.
After entering Wutong Garden, she realized that everyone's guesses were in vain. Hengsheng, the second master, is no less favored than the uncle.
When Tianyou heard that his younger brother was fine, he relieved himself and said, "Who has been on duty lately?" The second master sleeps and kicks the quilt, and it is cold in spring, so people should pay attention. ”
"If you go back to your uncle, it is the slave and maid who are on duty with Qin Ying at night. The old lady gave the eiderdown mattress, and the second master said that it was okay directly, only saying that it was not cold at all. Le Zi said.
As the two were talking, they saw someone say, "Sister Le Zi, the girl from Xiaolou in Kwai Courtyard is here to deliver something......
Le Zi looked at Tianyou, and Tianyou said, "I asked her to ask for the kitchen for the dumpling......"
Seeing this, Le Zi went out to welcome Xiaolou in.
Although according to the rank, Le Zi is a big girl and Xiao Lou is a little girl, but because she was given by the Li family, her appearance and character are outstanding, and Tianyou also "treats her differently", so Le Zi is not easy to support.
Under the corridor, the small building is slim, followed by a mother-in-law who carries a food box.
"I'm tired of my mother running away." Le Zi touched a copper coin, stuffed it into the hands of the mother-in-law who carried the food box, and sent her down, and then personally carried the food box and entertained Xiaolou to the upper room.
"Big ...... Uncle ...... "Seeing Tianyou looking at himself, Xiaolou was a little hesitant at his feet.
Tianyou glanced at her, and he didn't miss the light sweat on her forehead.
"What kind of bait are they?" He spoke.
"Rose cake, date cake, almond cake and gold cake." Xiaolou replied.
When Tianyou heard this, he frowned and said, "Why is it all sweet?" Grandmother and Aunt Tian both like to eat sweets, you can go to the kitchen in a while to prepare two more servings and send them to these two places. ”
When Xiao Lou heard this, his body shook straight, but his face was still white.
Tianyou looked at her back, but felt that she was a little bored, why was she angry with a little girl.
turned around and said to Le Lan that she should send her to needlework and thread, so as to sway less in the yard, so as not to stalk her neck all day and make people uncomfortable...... It turned out that Tianyou was able to support Xiaolou these few times, and the purpose was not as good as he said, but he was deliberately angry for Xiaoxie.
Xiaoxie is fifteen, short in stature, and has a baby face, so the newcomer Xiaolou only thinks that she is similar to herself, and she is a little less respectful. Just let Tianyou see it, and he was a little displeased.
But it was not good to attack in front of Le Lan and Xiao Xie, so he began to look for various opportunities to call Xiao Lou.
In this way, he himself found it boring.
Xiaolou came out of the pine courtyard, only to feel that the soles of his feet were hot, and it hurt and hurt.
Although she has been a slave for several years, she has not let go of her feet before entering Cao's Mansion. It wasn't until she entered Cao's Mansion that the girls here were all Tianzu, and she began to put her feet.
The little feet that have been wrapped for seven or eight years, even if they are released, are not good at walking.
In the past two years, she has been running non-stop in the courtyards of the inner house.
She is not a fool, she can see the dislike of her master. It's just that she doesn't know how to beg for mercy, and she is not qualified to beg for mercy.
She stood still next to the wall, looking down at her feet. Because the shoes are small, they are all covered under the skirt, so you can't see it at all.
When her mother ignored her crying and wrapped her feet, she never thought that it was this little foot that had become her daughter's sin.
Thinking about it, she couldn't help it, squatted down, and tears fell.
At this time, I heard someone next to me: "Huh? Are you crying? ”
Xiao Lou raised his head, and recognized the person in his teary eyes, it was not someone else, it was the seventh master of Caofu.
"Didn't cry...... she quickly wiped away her tears and replied.
Changsheng looked her up and down and said, "Liar essence! ”
Xiao Lou was choked speechless, throwing out Fang Cai's chagrin and self-pity, just thinking about hurrying to complete the task and going back to the errand.
Changsheng didn't mean to let her go, took a step sideways, blocked her way, puffed out his cheeks, and said viciously: "Aren't you the girl next to the old lady?" Where did you go, I didn't see you go back to Lanyuan! ”
Xiaolou said his new errand, Changsheng cut his feet, and went to the Orchid Courtyard to ...... * Orchid Courtyard and go to the room.
Cao Hao came back from the yamen and came to talk to his mother.
Li's meaning is that he wants to offer some high incense in the temple to pray for the child in Chu Yu's womb.
"Although it is in the period of filial piety, but the double body, filial piety should also be more careful." Li chattered endlessly, and said.
For her daughter-in-law's child, she is looking forward to adding a male grandson to spread the branches for the Cao family.
She looked at her son, but she somewhat understood what the old lady did to take a concubine for her husband back then. The old lady is a person who respects the rules, and has no intention of seizing power with his daughter-in-law, and the reason why the old man does this one after another is just for the heirs of the Cao family.
If the daughter-in-law is not a noble-born county lord, she is not sure whether she will take the initiative to take Zhang Luo as a concubine for her son. Thinking of this, she looked at Cao Hao, with a bit of anger in her eyes.
Just as he was saying this, he saw Changsheng come in from outside and pounce directly on the Li family.
Li leaned over and hugged him in his arms and said, "My son, where is this coming?" Look at the sweat of the head. ”
Changsheng couldn't realize the deep love between mother and son, so he only thought that he was entrusted by Xiaolou to ask what was going on.
At this time, he saw his brother Cao Hao.
Changsheng was a little nervous, and hurriedly jumped out of Li's arms, copied his hands, and said, "Big brother." ”
For as long as he can remember, Cao Yin has passed away, and Cao Hao is also a father, so he is very respectful to this brother.
Cao Hao asked two questions about homework, and then got up and went back to Wutong Garden.
After leaving, Changsheng began to grind the Li family, with only one purpose, that is, to take Xiaolou back.
The Li family was so worn out that he had to promise him to let someone see ...... * side Fujin "Sanqi" first, and Chu Yu never returned to his parents' house.
She was sullen and did not speak, and then touched her stomach and endured her grief.
Today, Cao Hao made a special trip to discuss things with his wife, that is, this year's Halloween tribute.
This thing is paid every year, so that everyone has long lost their passion.
Chu Yu said a few casually, but Cao Hao was still not very satisfied, and wondered if he would change his name to about sixteen elder brothers and go to the Liuli Factory.
At the end of February, Cao Hao made a small fortune.
Several governors came to Beijing to see His Majesty, and they were eager to sprinkle silver in the six departments, so they had a good stutter.
Cao Hao, the deputy hall official, has a background and a future, so everyone is naturally willing to come to him.
In this mid-spring world, when the spring was shining, Cao Hao had a glimpse of what it means to be "Zhu Jiu".
Zhu Yigui and others, who were escorted to Beijing last year, were all dealt with according to the law of conspiracy against each other.
The main offender, Zhu Yi, is a noble and nine families, including the youngest son in infancy; The accomplice Li Yong and six others were sentenced to sixteen-year-old men of the three clans, and seven women were enslaved in the families of meritorious heroes.
The Zhu family slaughtered all the men, and the dead grandfather dug the grave and whipped the corpse, the reason was not "rebellion", but Zhu Yigui "pretending to be a descendant of the Ming Dynasty".
Cao Hao has no masochistic tendencies, so naturally he will not go to this bloody scene.
It's just that when his colleagues in the yamen talked about it, he was also surprised.
Hearing that the female dependents of these families have entered the families of several big officials guarding Fujian, Cao Hao became more and more determined to add a piece to the Cao family's family rules and not buy the family members of the guilty ministers.
In the blink of an eye, it was March.
Cao Hao is a little tired, and sometimes he doesn't know what he is busy with.
If your wife has children, shouldn't she have a career?
Changping's peach blossoms didn't know if they had bloomed, and as soon as this thought came out, he couldn't sit still.
finally got to Xiu Mu, so he asked the sixteenth elder brother to go out of the city together.
Because of the bright spring, this carriage out of the city to tour the spring is endless.
Seeing this, the sixteenth elder brother immediately increased his spirit. In this way, compared with Cao Hao's twilight, it is more distinct.
Seeing Cao Hao's listless appearance, the sixteenth elder brother couldn't help laughing, and said, "Fu Ruo, if you have something to say, let it go, see what Uncle Sixteen can help you?" ”
Cao Hao listened, rolled his eyes, and didn't end his words.
When he arrived in Zhuangzi, Cao Hao went to the hot springs.
In the mist, Cao Hao's originally numb heart gradually came alive......
