Chapter 938: Happy Reunion
"Ma'am...... The slave doesn't want to leave the house......" Walnut snorted for a long time, and finally said this.
Chu Yu listened, nodded, and said, "You are a girl's family, if there is anything bad to say to me, discuss it with the Cao Man family." If you think it's appropriate, just let me know. I'll keep an eye on it for you. ”
Walnut responded with a red face, and while the two were talking, they heard Le Chun pick up the curtain and come in and say, "Madam, Sister Xiyun is back, and she is asking to see Mrs. in the courtyard." ”
"Huh?" When Chu Yu heard this, he stood up and said busily: "Xiyun? Quickly pass ......" said, but he couldn't wait, and stepped out.
Under the corridor, there stood a little daughter-in-law dressed in Han costume. The upper body is a wide-brimmed women's jacket with a foundation and a pleated skirt with a blue satin bottom, faintly revealing purple satin embroidered shoes.
She wore her hair in a bun on her head, two golden hairpins inserted into it, a pair of ears exposed, a gold gourd pendant set with precious stones, three gold pieces on her chest, and two jeweled tweezers on her hands.
Although this dress may not be much richer than when she was a big girl in Wutong Garden, it is an authentic Han family dress.
When Le Chun and Le Xia saw it, they all felt novel. They were made up from the little maid in Wutong Garden, and they knew that Xiyun's identity was different, and their attitude was also respectful. Like Le Qing and Le Hong, they made up for it outside, but they felt strange.
Where can Chu Yu care about Xiyun's dress, when he saw Xiyun's face, his eyes were already red.
Xiyun and Xicai grew up with her as a child, and married to the Cao family with her. Unexpectedly, although she married someone from Cao's house, she went out of Beijing with her husband.
Xiyun couldn't stand it either, she already knelt down, and choked up: "Gege, the slave is back!" ”
When Zhang Yi and his wife went out of Beijing with Wei Xin, Chu Yu thought that they would be able to turn around in two or three years, but he didn't expect that this would be two or three years.
"Get up quickly, talk in the house." Chu Yu leaned over, helped her up, and said with a forced smile: "It's finally back, when you are happy." ”
The master and servant entered the house hand in hand, and Walnut had already retreated to Le Chun's side.
Xiyun had already seen the walnut, dressed it up as a girl, was slightly stunned, and nodded in greeting; Looking at other people, some of them are familiar, some of them have raw faces, and they feel like they are in transit.
"How many of us? Didn't you say you couldn't catch up before the year? Entering the room, Chu Yu asked.
"As soon as she arrived, the slave really wanted to be Gege, so she came directly to greet Gege. The slave maid's family is now talking to the uncle in the front yard. When I was at the door, I happened to meet the uncle returning home. Xiyun lowered his head and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and replied with a smile: "Because I came out of Guangdong late, I couldn't get to Beijing in time a year ago, but the slave maid's family was worried about the New Year's goods in the house, and they hurried along the way, and finally arrived a year ago." ”
"What about the child, why didn't you bring it here?" Chu Yu asked.
Because he was in a hurry, he caught a cold and didn't dare to come. I was afraid that I would be sick and give Gege, so I asked people to take them back and settle them first. Gege is a double body, and the slave should not come directly. "Xiyun Road.
"How can it be so expensive, even if you don't come, I know that you are back, and I have to go over to see you." Chu Yu said with a smile.
The master and servant have been separated for several years, and they have a stomach to say.
Le Chun personally served the tea, and then exited the door.
Walnut was familiar with Xiyun, but he couldn't speak at the moment, so he said hello to Lechun and went back to Kwai Yuan first.
In the front yard, Cao Hao and Zhang Yi were also talking.
Originally, according to Cao Hao's plan, Zhang Yi and his wife should have returned to Beijing last winter. But there were some mistakes in the business in Guangzhou, and Zhang Yi was stranded for more than half a year and only came back this year.
"Fan Shishen swallowed the Fan family?" Cao Hao was not surprised by this news. Because the Cao family pulled Fan Shishen at that time, it meant to add fuel to the fire, but I didn't expect it to be so fast. originally thought that with the qualifications of the Fan family, even if he lost, he would have to work hard for a few years.
Fan Shishen is a very ambitious young man, as can be seen from his desperate gamble and partnership with the Cao family to do business.
"You can't blame him all, it's really his brother who is unkind. I can't see him well, obviously the two have nothing to do with each other, and I don't leave him a way to live. Fan Er really had no choice, so he had to join forces with the second girl of the Ai family and eat the Fan family's fleet. Now those clan elders are counting on him to feed, and no one dares to say anything bad. Zhang Yi said.
"The rest of the Ai family didn't say anything?" Cao Hao raised his eyebrows and asked.
Zhang Yi said with a smile: "The Ai family's forces in Guangzhou are all in the hands of Ida, and others say that it is useless. Besides, she promised herself to Fan Er, and she was right. The two are already engaged, and they are waiting for Fan Er to get married next year. As he spoke, Zhang Yi took out a box from his sleeve and sent it to Cao Hao: "Master, this is the real estate title deed in Guangzhou, and there is also a letter of approval for the forty percent shares of Fanjia Shipbuilding." The small one is explained by the master, and it only costs three points, but Fan Er is considered sensible, so he gave forty percent. Of the remaining sixty percent, he left forty percent for himself, and twenty percent for the second girl of the Ai family. The second girl of the Ai family was also cheerful, and directly wrote these two into her nephew's name. ”
The nephew of Gina, the second girl of the Ai family, is Wei Jiali, the son of Wei Xin and Ada.
"Fan Shishen is so bold that he has a little courage!" Cao Hao said.
Although it looks like he has suffered a loss, he has given up sixty percent of his ancestral property, but he has tied the Cao family, the Ai family and the Fan family together. The Cao family is a powerful person in the capital, so that people can say hello, and the local government will also give some face; The Ai family has a very high status in Nanyang, and the Fan family can't catch up.
"I don't know, the second girl of the Ai family is getting more and more stylish. Looking at that posture, maybe in two years, he will eat the Ai family as a dowry for himself. Fan Er's two shares are not lost. Zhang Yidao.
The real estate and title deeds in Guangzhou were not purchased in the name of the Cao family. He was in Macao for a few years, and through the second girl of the Ai family, he got a Macao household registration, and the real estate and land deeds in Guangzhou were purchased under that pseudonym.
Cao Hao asked him to arrange these and control the fleet, but he just held the idea of three holes in the cunning rabbit, which was the last way back.
In fact, even if the sea is dangerous, as long as it is not mixed with rebellion, there are few people who raid their homes and exterminate their families. Cao Hao is like this, just to ask for peace of mind.
Even if he didn't like officialdom, Cao Hao didn't have the courage to move his family to the West.
People are cheap when they leave their hometowns, not to mention the sea routes that are life-threatening.
Looking at Zhang Yi's dusty and dull face, Cao Hao talked to him for a while, then sent him down to familiarize himself with the change of clothes, and said, "I will give you the wind at night, and we will talk about it in detail." ”
Zhang Yi went down, Cao Hao took the box in front of him and the previous Mongolian knife in his arms, took it back to Wutong Garden, and told Chu Yu to put it away.
It's good to say that this Mongolian knife is very entangled in Chu Yu.
After knowing that it was a token left by Ge Keyan Pile to Hengsheng, her originally cheerful mood also fell silent: "Do you really want to take Hengsheng?" ”
Seeing her like this, Cao Hao explained: "There are still more than ten years of hard work, what do you want to do?" Maybe he won't let someone pick it up when the time comes, and you still feel wronged. ”
For Hengsheng, the adopted son, although the two of them love each other as parents and children, there is always something that cannot be given. For example, titles and power.
Even if Hengsheng is not an adopted son, he is a descendant of Chu Yu, but because of Xing Er, he is not eligible to inherit the title.
The promise left by Ge Keyan Pile was the banner lord of the Mongol Khan, and the king of the county of the imperial court, and the number of titles among the vassal kings of Outer Mongolia.
Hearing her husband say this, Chu Yu sighed and said, "If he really inherits the prince, I would rather stay in the capital and be the lord of Hengsheng, than go to Mongolia to eat sand." ”
Cao Hao didn't answer, if Hengsheng was really a goshawk soaring high in the sky, he would not bind him to stay in the capital because of his father's love; If Hang Seng had pursued a sound of peace, he would not have let the powerful drag his son into the water.
The atmosphere in the room was a little silent, and the two brothers Tianyou and Hengsheng came.
Cao Hao said a few words with his sons, and when he heard that they wanted to go to Prince Yong's mansion, he thought that he would be free in two days, so he asked someone to hand over the post.
In Chu Yu's hand, there is also the New Year's goods list left by Xiyun.
Chu Yu picked out a few novelties from them and added them to the gift list for Sifujin. In this way, even if this year's New Year's gift is a little thicker than in previous years, it is not eye-catching because of the gift to Sifujin.
Otherwise, the tide will rise, and the ceremonies of other royal palaces will also be thickened.
That night, Cao Hao set up a table of wine in the front hall, called Wei Hei, Zheng Hu, Wu Mao, Xiaoman and others to pick up Zhang Yi.
As for Bala and China, who were newly admitted to the house, Cao Hao directly asked the housekeeper to arrange a courtyard, which was the same treatment as the middle nursing home in the house.
They are going to be subordinates to Hengsheng, and Cao Hao doesn't plan to hold them. The Mongols treated their slaves with cruelty and cruelty, and sometimes they were no match for sheep and horses.
Cao Hao will not treat Bala and China like this, but he will not let them develop a surname that is not inferior. Even if it is a tiger or a wolf, it has to pull out its claws and teeth before it can rest assured by his son's side.
Speaking of which, Zhang Yi is also counted by Cao Hao's side. In the past few years, he has been in charge of the south alone, and he is also decent in the eyes of outsiders, but he is not much worse than Zhao Tong's Qipinzhi County.
Now, the errand in Guangzhou is taken over by Cao Fang, and Zhang Yi can be regarded as returning from the errand.
Cao Hao was afraid that everyone would be restrained, so he ate a few cups with him, so he withdrew first.
Everyone was in high spirits, and they had to raise their wine cups to salute Zhang Yi.
Zhang Yi thought about the big guy who was a long-term follower by the master's side in the early years, and he was also a little abrupt...... Cao Hao came down from the banquet and did not go back to Wutong Garden directly, but went to the courtyard next door to Bala and China, where Cao Jia, Cao Yi and others lived.
Cao Jia and Cao Yi were all there, and they listened to Cao Hao talk about Bala and China, but they were a little curious.
It is common for people who practice martial arts to have more strength, but it is not easy to really kill a horse with a few fists or a wolf king with a hand.
The reason why Cao Hao explained was just to let them know that they would go to the bottom first, and then decide whether to go to Hengsheng's side after observing and observing the behavior of these two people.
If Hang Seng has a big companion by his side, Tianyou should also have it by his side. Cao Hao asked Cao Jia and Cao Yi to help select people to see who was right.
The two of them are going to enter the White Flag Official School next year, and they should also start to prepare.
Speaking of these, there are also Zuo Zhu and Zuo Cheng brothers, the Tian family has begun to buy servants one after another, but the male servants are limited, and there are still not enough people, so they also need to add people......
