Chapter 203: The Human Heart

Cao Song heard that this person was still angry, so he hurriedly said to Mo Shu: "Go, help him onto the horse, I don't know who hit him with a bad conscience, and I don't say to come down to check it out!" ”

When Mo Shu heard this, he was about to get off the horse, when he saw Wei Hei waving his hand, and said to Cao Song with a smile: "Since the second son is kind, why don't you save people to the end, what is the meaning of this fake hand to others!" ”

Cao Hao saw that Wei Hei was smiling strangely, and when he heard this, this person didn't look like he was seriously injured, so he took a closer look at the "little guy" face. He gradually knew in his heart, although he knew that it was inconvenient, but now was not the time to pay attention to this, so he didn't say anything and watched Cao Song react.

Cao Song scratched his head, jumped off the horse, and said to Wei Hei with a smile: "Brother Wei, why are you laughing like this, were you hooked up by the little lady just now, and you have to think about it when you see a kid?" ”

Wei Hei was so blocked by his words that he couldn't speak, he laughed dryly twice, and hugged his arms to watch Cao Song's actions.

Although Cao Song has always been careless, this time he is fine, pulling and pulling the arms and legs of the "little guy", looking at no injuries, it should just be bleeding on his forehead, so he is relieved a lot. He wiped the blood from the man's face with his sleeve, then clamped the "little guy" around the waist with his arm, and returned to the horse like this.

Cao Hao and Wei Hei saw it and bluffed, for fear that Cao Song would throw this person again. Fortunately, Cao Song still knew to be careful, and helped the man onto the horse safely, and the two breathed a sigh of relief.

As soon as I entered the city, I saw a standard soldier at the city gate, and the word "governor" was written on the soldier's number, which seemed to be the governor of the governor's palace. Together with the officers and soldiers guarding the gate, they checked the people who left the city, and inevitably touched a piece of silver or something in the middle. Although the people cursed in a low voice, who would dare in front of them? Naturally, I was careful and dealt with carefully.

As for those who entered the city, these soldiers did not care. When Cao Hao saw it, he couldn't help frowning, he didn't see these superintendents when he went out of the city, what kind of singing is this?

Seeing Cao Hao's expression, Xiao Man took out a few copper plates from his arms, bought a few cakes from a sister-in-law who sold fried cakes not far from the city gate, and asked by the way.

This sister-in-law can't say why, but it's not uncommon to say this, and she always has to do it a few times a month. It's not just that it's not easy for the people who go out of the city, but it's also not easy for them to be small businessmen. If anyone dares to say a word, they will be thrown out of the stall immediately, and they will be beaten and kicked if they don't say it well.

Cao Hao shook his head, but "if God wants to make him die, he must first make him crazy", and I don't know where Kali is so big to rely on, dare to act so recklessly? He had heard his father mention that the rise in grain prices in Jiangnan last spring seemed to be the work of Kali. The Kali colluded with the pirates to transport the grain out of Fufu for huge profits. When Zhang Boxing heard some rumors, he went all out to arrest the bandits, and if he drew his salary from the bottom of the kettle, he would completely pull down the big moth of Kali. This made Kali tremble and was bent on getting rid of Zhang Boxing.

Because there is no evidence, Cao Yin is not easy to report casually, and Zhang Boxing is indeed suspected of "forming a party" in Jiangnan, but this party has nothing to do with the throne and is a "Hanchen" party.

Kangxi issued an order to apply for punishment several times, and he was wary of Zhang Boxing. Although Cao Yin is a banner person, he is Han after all, and he knows Kangxi's evasion, and in the dispute between Kali and Zhang Boxing, it is not good to speak for Zhang Boxing, so he can only choose to stand by and watch.

According to Cao Song's meaning, he wanted to send the "little guy" to the hospital. Cao Hao thought about it, shook his head, and said, "Since Brother Wei said that it won't be in the way, let's take it back to the house first!" Ask the doctor in the house to help you take a look, and then ask someone outside! ”

Cao Song felt that his brother was right, so he nodded and agreed.

Cao Hao was a little embarrassed, looked at Wei Hei, and saw Wei Hei nodding, Fang relieved himself.

Back at the weaving house, it was past noon.

The housekeeper Cao Yuan was looking around the porter, and when he saw Cao Hao and Cao Song coming back, he hurriedly stepped forward to hold Cao Hao's reins: "Uncle, second master, master and wife have asked several times, and they will hold a banquet in Kaiyang Courtyard in a while, and practice it for the old lady and uncle of the in-laws!" ”

Cao Hao turned over and dismounted: "Look at me, I forgot to explain to the door, but I was worried about the housekeeper!" ”

Cao Song also dismounted, and said with a smile: "My brother and I both remember it, and we rushed back before dinner!" ”

Cao Yuan was slightly surprised when he saw that Cao Hao was still lying on his stomach immediately. Cao Song pulled the man off the horse, put him on his shoulder, and asked Cao Hao: "Brother, how is this kid placed?" ”

Cao Hao's expression was a little stiff when he saw Cao Song's action, and he couldn't help but look at Wei Hei, regretting why he let him play tricks on Cao Song. Wei Hei seemed to understand what Cao Hao was thinking, touched the short beard on his chin, and laughed twice.

"Brother......" Seeing that Cao Hao didn't respond for a while, Cao Song patted the person on the shoulder: "How can this kid be placed?" ”

Cao Hao said to Cao Yuan: "Clean up a guest room, and ask Yuan's sister-in-law to pick two sturdy servants to take care of it first!" ”

Although he saw that this "little guy" was his daughter, Cao Hao was willing to do it to save people in danger, but after all, the identity of this person was unknown, so it was better to be cautious.

Cao Yuan was confused, and he didn't understand why he had to choose a servant woman to take care of a boy, but since it was arranged by his uncle, of course he happily responded.

*Inner courtyard, in Gao Taijun's room.

Gao Taijun sat on the kang, hugged Wu'er, looked and looked, kissed and kissed, and was very relieved. Li sat on the chair with red eyes, originally she also thought that Li Ding was sick, although she was reluctant to mother, but she also knew that the old man could not rest assured that the Li family was there, and she didn't want to stop her from going back. Last night, I heard Cao Yin mention that Li Ding's illness was just a rhetoric, and now she is very embarrassed.

Li wants to explain the truth with his mother and keep his mother; I was afraid that exposing my cousin's lies like this would annoy the old lady and make the already estranged relationship between the Cao and Li families more and more tense. If you don't keep your mother, according to what your mother said before, it will be very difficult to take her over again.

Chu Yu sat under her mother-in-law, looking at the milk doll held in Gao Taijun's arms, her eyes full of envy. Although Li was very kind to her and did not ask her about her pregnancy, she still inevitably felt guilty.

There is only one Cao Hao in the Cao family's room, and Cao Yin is already old, so this matter of reproducing children and spreading branches and leaves falls on Cao Hao. Chu Yu couldn't help but feel a little gloomy, the New Year will be in ten days, and he will be seventeen.

Gao Taijun touched Wu'er's hair, and said to Li: "You and Cao's son-in-law can't talk too much about my old wife, it's the grandson and granddaughter-in-law's ......" Speaking of this, he glanced at Chu Yu and said: "It's good for the old woman to look at it, only this one, born as a motherless child, it's really distressing!" ”

When Li heard this, he faintly gave birth to some hope: "Mother is not what she said, Wu'er is really pitiful, and she points to her mother how much she cherishes and cherishes!" ”

Gao Taijun shook his head: "After all, the old woman is the Li family, and there is no reason to live in the Cao family all the time. For more than a year, to be able to reunite with you, my wife has nothing to ask for! Your aunt is old, people in their eighties, who knows how many more days you can have? You also know that our mother and sister can have today, and we all rely on your aunt's care. Although she is a concubine in name, the old woman has always respected her as a parent. This person is old, and his surname is unique, except for me, your aunt and your sister-in-law, niece and daughter-in-law can't speak. Even if Ding'er didn't get sick, I would have to go back! If you truly respect me, persuade Cao's son-in-law and grandson more so that they can get along well with the Li family. The Li family is your mother's family, even if you don't look at me, you have to read it for your sake! ”

Chu Yu listened to it with his head lowered on the side, only feeling confused, and a little strange in his heart, not to mention that Cao Hao has always been kind to people, even his father-in-law is not a mean person, how can he listen to Gao Taijun's words, like this father and son are not in harmony with the Li family?

After Gao Taijun finished the last sentence, he thought that Chu Yu was still present, but it was inappropriate to say this, frowning slightly, and swept Chu Yu away. Catching up with Chu Yu, he also looked over curiously, and the two were just facing each other.

Although Chu Yu has changed her hairstyle, learned from her mother-in-law to wear her hair in a bun, and did not comb her hair twice, because it takes a few days for the clothes on her body to be ready, she is still wearing a festive flag costume. But when this makeup fell into Gao Taijun's eyes, it still caused her to be upset for a while, and she immediately pulled down her face, her eyes were full of coldness.

Chu Yu was trembling when Gao Taijun saw it, tears had already come out, but he didn't dare to squeak, so he lowered his head and said nothing.

Because Gao Taijun mentioned his aunt Li Xu's mother Wen, Li knew that he could no longer keep his mother, and he was still silently sad. When he woke up, he realized that the atmosphere was not right, and when he looked up, Gao Taijun's expression was solemn, and he was about to attack Chu Yu, and he couldn't help but hurriedly called: "Mother, ......" The tone was full of pleading.

Anyway, she has only one son and only this one daughter-in-law. After these few days of contact, I look at him as a well-behaved and sensible person, and I can't bear to let my daughter-in-law suffer any more grievances for no reason.

Gao Taijun was summoned by the Li family, Fang calmed down, turned his head, looked at the statue of Guanyin, and counted the rosary in his hand.

*Xifu, in Zhaojia's room.

Because it has to be practiced for Gao Taijun, Zhaojia's family and the children also have to pass. It was Cao Quan, who also came back from the yamen early and went over to talk to Li Xu.

Zhao Jiashi knew that Gao Taijun was a little weird, and he couldn't get used to seeing the woman's flag and makeup, but he didn't take it to heart. She is tall and tall, if she really wears the makeup of the Han family, it will be nondescript. Fortunately, the old lady is still a person who knows etiquette, and between relatives, she speaks politely.

I just hugged my sister over, this is Zhao Jia's daughter born before the Mid-Autumn Festival last year, ranked fourth among the uncles and sisters, named Cao Pre, now one and a half years old, it is the age to learn to speak, when I saw my mother, I reached out to hug her.

Zhao Jiashi was afraid of wrinkling the newly changed clothes, so he didn't take it, but took his daughter's little hand and kissed it twice: "Be good, stay at home with your grandmother, and bring you a sister back at night to play with you!" ”

The daughter left by Lu Mei has always been Zhao Jia's heart disease. In the past year or so, she thought that the root cause of these changes between their husband and wife was Wu'er. Cao Quan made his own decisions and took Wu'er to Gao Taijun to raise, which made Zhao Jia's heart very annoyed. She felt that this was really embarrassing and embarrassing, and she was afraid that those relatives would have to pay attention to themselves behind their backs.

Several times, she couldn't help but want to complain and complain to the Li family, but she couldn't let go of her identity, and she was even more afraid that her sister-in-law would look down on her, so she only poured bitter water into her stomach.

Now, when I heard that Gao Taijun was going back to the Li family, I was the happiest person than Zhaojia's family. She is a mother-in-law and wants to raise her concubine, who can pick out if it is not impossible?

In the afternoon, the dinner was placed in Kaiyang Courtyard, separated by a screen, and the women and children accompanied the old lady in the screen; The Cao Yin brothers, Cao Hao, Cao Song, and Cao Shuo accompanied Li Xu to sit outside. Because there are no foreign visitors, everyone is more casual, and relatives talk and laugh among themselves, and they look very warm.

At the wine table, Li Xu also quietly paid attention to Cao Hao's expression, and said those slightly mocking words in the morning, which he also deliberately did, wanting to see how Cao Hao's mind was.

Seeing Cao Hao's expression as usual, and he didn't see anything unusual talking to him, Li Xu couldn't help but be secretly frightened. I can't figure out who this Cao Hao's surname is, this doesn't seem to be as knowledgeable and upright as his father, nor as generous and kind as his mother, which makes Li Xu feel a little incomprehensible and intangible.

Li Xu smiled and drank a few glasses of wine with Brother Cao Yin, but his heart was full of resentment, what was his worse than Cao Yin? It's just because of Cao Yin's early wisdom that he is in line with the love of the long live lord that he has been under Cao Yin for a while in half of his life. In this way, he entered the palace to accompany him earlier than Cao Yin. Thinking of the events of his early years, he couldn't help but complain a little about his mother Wen, if he hadn't left the palace earlier, he wouldn't have let the Sun family be valued by the Lord of Long Live like this.

His heart was depressed, and before he knew it, Li Xu was a little drunk.

Cao Yin saw that he was full of old age, and personally helped him to the guest room with his son, sat on the edge of his bed, and thought about it for a long time, but finally couldn't bear to let him be so depressed. Back in the study, Cao Yin hesitated again and again, but still wrote an excerpt, tactfully pointing out Li Xu's panic, and another self-blame for his mistaken illness. Although he didn't directly intercede for the Li family, he also understood his intention to go on this excerpt.
