Cao Mansion, Aoi Courtyard, Wing Room.

Xu is words were in a hurry, Amethyst bowed up, and couldn't help coughing. Cao Hao was just about to step forward to help her pat, but she saw that there were a lot of white hair in her bun.

Cao Hao only felt a sour feeling in his heart, his hand stopped in mid-air, and muttered, "You ......"

The daughter is fleeting, even if she is still delicate, the years will leave traces on her body. Even so, at the age of twenty-eight, it is really appalling to have these gray hairs.

Amethyst had already stopped coughing, leaned back on the chair, and looked at Cao Hao with a smile on her face.

Cao Hao feigned anger and said, "Are you still laughing? Even if you don't want to alarm Chu Yu, you can ask someone to ask for a doctor in the front yard, but you want to toss yourself like this! ”

Seeing Cao Hao's appearance, Amethyst couldn't help but chuckle, her eyes became softer and softer, and she said: "Because the second master and the third master are here, the uncle is more and more stable, and he looks like a young master!" ”

This tone, as if he was an elder, Cao Hao was a little uncomfortable when he listened, touched the mattress on the kang and said, "Since the wind is blowing, I will find a thick futon to come out." Although it is said that it is the beginning of summer, the wind is hard in the end! ”

"Well, well, the slave can save it!" Amethyst still laughs.

Cao Hao couldn't help but have an illusion, just like when he was in Xuanrui Hall more than ten years ago, he was just a seven-year-old child. In Amethyst's eyes, how can there be "love"?

"Amethyst!" Cao Hao looked at the white hair in her bun, looked at her desireless, clear eyes like water, and said, "In this life, what do you want?" You know, in my heart, you are family. To live, you have to be a little rushed. Like me, my goal is to make you all feel comfortable. Amethyst ......" Speaking of this, he paused and said, "What is your head?" What are your concerns? ”

Amethyst heard Cao Hao mention this, her body trembled, and her eyes were already red. She smiled, and instead of answering immediately, she turned her head to look at the shrine offered on the west kang.

"Don't tell me, it's a god and Buddha, you are a smart person, you should know that a mud tire is just a mud tire!" If it were someone else, Cao Hao would not want to visit someone**, but because it was Amethyst, he wanted her to live happily and comfortably.

Amethyst's gaze shifted from the shrine to Cao Hao's face, and his gaze became a little blurred, as if he was talking to himself, and as if he was whispering to Cao Hao: "It was thirty-seven years, the slave's father was beheaded, the mother was sick with the epidemic, and the slave was twelve...... The slave maid entered the Cao Mansion...... Over the years, slaves and maids have seen a lot of life and death, and they feel more and more that the world is impermanent, some of them can't be begged, and some can't be begged......"

Listening to her gloomy words, Cao Hao only felt panicked in his heart, and said: "Amethyst, everyone is born and knows that they will die in the end, and immortality is just a joke." In this way, not to live? Even if you have experienced ups and downs in your youth, haven't you been better over the years? You don't want to have a child of your own and a small family? Usually you love children so much, if you have a child born by yourself, call you mother, call you mother, your life will be lively! ”

It was a heavy topic, although Cao Hao knew that he was a little verbose, but he couldn't bear to be so lonely and old like Amethyst.

Amethyst listened quietly, and when she heard the end, she smiled and said, "Isn't Uncle just a child?" The slave and maid watched the uncle grow up, and now, I want to watch the little master grow up on the ground, and the slave and maid are happy in their hearts! ”

Cao Hao couldn't help but see her oil and salt, so he rubbed his feet vigorously and said, "Amethyst, I'm serious!" ”

Amethyst nodded, and said with a warm face: "Uncle's kindness, the slave can save it." The uncle doesn't like trouble, and the slave doesn't like to be lively, which is good in the house. When the day comes, the uncle and grandmother will not need the slave and maid, or the slave and the maid will be old, and the uncle will send the slave and maid to the south. In the end, there was a bit of silence in his voice.

"Say what?" Cao Hao stood up and said, "What's the use, whether to send it or not?" You have to save, whether you want to go out or stay in the house, feel free, as long as you can live comfortably. I persuaded you many times, but you didn't listen, but this time I didn't persuade you, and now I started to change my words! You are my family, my child's aunt, and Caofu's aunt! As long as I live, you can live whatever kind of life you want. If you want to be quiet, you can be quiet, if you want to toss, let's toss! ”

In the end, Cao Hao's eyes were also red.

He couldn't tell what his feelings were for Amethyst, but he felt distressed and sad about Amethyst's choice.

Amethyst's tears fell, and the corners of her mouth smiled, and she said: "Even if the uncle doesn't say this, the slave and maid will treat the uncle as a younger brother and the little masters as sons and nephews." ”

"Slave maid, slave maid?" Cao Hao clenched his fists, unable to tell whether he was sad or something else.

Seeing Cao Hao's childish appearance, Amethyst's eyes smiled like crescents, covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and couldn't help laughing.

After Cao Hao finished tossing, he also felt a little embarrassed, turned around, wandered a few steps on the ground, and said, "Why hasn't the imperial doctor come yet?" ”

At this time, I heard Amethyst say, "Slave maid...... I...... What I'm worried about, do you still want to listen to it......"

When Cao Hao heard this, he hurriedly stopped, sat down on a chair by the kang, and listened to it with a full face.

To be honest, why Amethyst insisted on not marrying, Cao Hao was also very curious. He didn't believe that it was because of the cousin who was engaged to Amethyst when he was a child, and he didn't believe that it was because of the subordinate who died of illness in the Jiangning Mansion in his early years.

Amethyst, as if living outside the crowd, always looks at the world coldly, without the slightest shackle.

Although Amethyst's face was red due to the fever, the brilliance in her eyes at the moment was unmatched.

"Many years ago, when I was a little girl, I ...... I...... I thought about getting married...... I've also thought about what it would be like to have a daughter......" she said softly, looking a little confused, as if caught in a distant memory.

"Daughter? Does Amethyst like girls? Cao Hao nodded and said, "If you have such a thought, why is it still delayed until now?" ”

Amethyst sighed and said with a wry smile: "Time has passed, slaves and maids have grown up, and they also know that it is not easy to be a woman in this world, and it is even more difficult to be a servant. ”

Cao Hao heard her say this, and knew that she was nostalgic for her life experience, and said with a little guilt: "Body, body, if I had thought about this matter a long time ago, I would have restored your identity before entering Qingliang Temple, and you would not have delayed for three years." ”

Amethyst shook her head with a smile and said, "What is the paper document, even if some things are erased, they will leave a mark in their bones." ”

"Just because of your identity, you don't want to get married?" This reason made Cao Hao feel a little surprised.

Amethyst nodded and said, "Since I live for a lifetime, I really don't want to go against my will, so living quietly like this is exactly what I want." ”

Since she is already like this, what can Cao Hao say more? looked at the white hair on her head and said, "Are you too tired, but what is the matter, the body is the most important." Ming'er makes people look for two good He Shou Wu, you can nourish and nourish well. ”

Amethyst heard it and knew that he was talking about his hair, so he touched his sideburns and said, "Ping said that it was all combed inside, and I couldn't see it." ”

As he spoke, Unn had already led the Imperial Physician over.

This Tai Doctor is in his fifties, born in a Xinglin family, works in Tai Hospital, and his surname is Chen. His father, Imperial Physician Chen, came to this house a few years ago, and in the past two years, because of his age, his son took over.

The two families have been friends for several lifetimes since the old lady.

Seeing Cao Hao here, Imperial Physician Chen hurriedly bowed his head and said, "I've seen Lord Cao!" ”

Cao Hao waved his hand and said, "Imperial Doctor Chen doesn't need to be polite, I'm really ashamed to bother you to come so late." It's just that Amethyst's body is a little uncomfortable, so I don't dare to delay, and I ask Imperial Doctor Chen not to blame it. ”

Liu Ye and Wu En were originally going to hang up the curtain, but Amethyst stopped with a smile and said, "Imperial Doctor Chen is not an outsider, and the uncle is also here, so there is no need to avoid it." ”

Because of the long time in and out of this mansion, Imperial Doctor Chen knew Amethyst, knew that it was the girl in charge of the house, and saw Cao Hao personally asking about the disease, and also took a little caution, sitting by the kang to concentrate on the pulse.

The pulse is for the Hong pulse, Imperial Doctor Chen put down his hand, looked at Amethyst's complexion, and said, "Miss Amethyst asked the old man to look at the tongue coating!" ”

When Amethyst heard this, she opened her mouth to reveal her tongue, but the tongue coating was white and yellow.

Imperial Physician Chen nodded and said, "Is Miss Amethyst 'not changing clothes' these two times?" ”

Seeing Amethyst nodding, Imperial Physician Chen knew it in his heart, and said: "Amethyst girl, this is an external heat evil, with a heavy fever, a swollen head, and a swollen throat. ”

Cao Hao was beside him, and he heard that Amethyst was fine, so he relieved himself and accompanied Imperial Doctor Chen out to serve tea.

Because it was getting late, Imperial Physician Chen wrote a prescription and got up to say goodbye.

Cao Hao called Wu En to offer the consultation money, sent Imperial Doctor Chen out, and then handed over the prescription to the housekeeper, and sent someone to grab the medicine immediately.

After this toss, Amethyst sweated on his forehead again, and Cao Hao had to give two more instructions.

Amethyst saw that the hour was not early, so she asked Cao Hao to go back first.

Cao Hao explained two more sentences to Liu Ye, and made people look at it at night, if there was anything wrong with Amethyst, he would immediately send a letter to Wutong Garden.

Liu Ye nodded in response, and Cao Hao came out of the Kwai Courtyard.

When he returned to Wutong Garden, Chu Yu had already slept on the soft couch outside. Xiyun and Xicai were in the upper room, and when they saw Cao Hao coming back, they hesitated to wake up Chu Yu.

Cao Hao made a silent movement, walked to Chu Yu's side, and saw that she was also frowning in her sleep, and felt a little distressed.

For fear of startling her, Cao Hao went to the outer hall to freshen up and asked Xiyun, "Is Chu Yu uncomfortable?" How much do you eat for dinner? ”

Gege is better today, and he didn't complain about backache anymore, but he got impatient, and walked two steps on the ground, saying that he was tired. For dinner, I used a bowl of millet porridge and ate two small dumplings. Xiyun replied.

Cao Hao rushed back from outside the city, saw Wang Mengxu again, and went to Kwai Courtyard again, before he had time for dinner. Now when it comes to eating, he is a little hungry, so he said to Xicai, look at the kitchen and get some food.

* Inside Andingmen, Prince Yong's Mansion.

The fourth elder brother sat behind a chair with a thin piece of paper in his hand. Although there are only two lines of words on it, his heart is on fire when he sees it.

"Nian Xiyao entered Jiubeizi Mansion and came out at the time of Xu", Jiubeizi Mansion, the fourth elder brother's expression was a little gloomy.

Nian's family is the most decent family among his disciples, not to mention that Nian Qianyao is the governor of Sichuan, Nian Xiyao also let go of Zhili Road last year, and he took the door of the eighth elder brother.

Is this to be a wall grass, or to find a new master? In the capital, the eyes of the people are watching, where is the secret? The Nian family does this, is it a decoration to be his master?

The fourth elder brother remembered last year's New Year's gift, raised his head, and said to Dai Jin: "Nian family...... What do you think? These dog minions are really too deceitful! At the end, there was a bit of coldness in his tone.

Dai Jin thought for a while, and said cautiously: "Fourth Master, the Nian family may not have good news, and they don't know the situation in the capital, the fourth master can mention something in the letter to Nian Qianyao, so as to save them from being confused!" ”

When the fourth elder brother heard this, he snorted coldly and said, "Is it just a mistake?" This is their heart, such a clinging face, it is disgusting! ”

Dai Jin and Nian Qianyao are both members of the Fourth Elder Brother's Mansion, and the Fourth Elder Brother can say some things, but Dai Jin can't say it.

Therefore, he couldn't say how the Nian family was doing, so he said: "Fourth master, the Nian family is like this, maybe it's because of the short time when he was attached to the fourth master's family." In fact, they are too eager, Fang Fujin has already entered the mansion, and they have already been marked with the mark of the fourth master. It's just that the fourth master has always been forbearant to the outside world, and they don't know the fourth master's mind, so they will be afraid. If Fang Fujin had given birth to Ah Gege earlier, they would have been down-to-earth! ”

When the fourth elder brother heard this, his face became more and more ugly, did he want the slave to be obedient, and he still wanted him to be the master's petty promise?

Although he was uncomfortable, he also knew that what Dai Jin said was a word of loyalty, and sighed, it seems that he will go to the yard of the sister of Qianyao in the past years......
