Chapter 604: Foreplay (I)

Cao Hao has two sons and a daughter under his knees, and Wang Lusheng knows that every time he prepares for the ceremony, he also has a part in the young master.

This time, he brought out four little boys, lined up in a row, and gave Wang Lusheng a gift of son and nephew.

"Brother Wang, these are the younger brother's dogs, that is the eldest son of the younger brother, Tianyou, the second son, Hengsheng, these are the two righteous sons of the younger brother, Zuozhu and Zuocheng." After Cao Hao finished speaking to Wang Lusheng, he looked at a few children and said, "Those gadgets that were distributed to you a few years ago, the little tiger made by willow weaving, were sent from Shandong by your uncle Wang, so don't hurry up and salute." ”

Several children were confused, some remembered, some didn't remember, they all responded in their mouths, bowed to Wang Lusheng and said, "My nephew has seen Uncle Wang, please say hello to Uncle Wang." ”

Wang Lusheng's face was flushed, and he didn't dare to sit still.

This is a bit of a family friendship, thinking that he is just a squire, but the Cao family is the earl's mansion. Cao Hao can do this step, how can he not make this man's heart surge?

He bowed and returned the salute, but he couldn't hide his excitement, and said: "I really don't dare to stand it, I should ask a few young masters to say goodbye." ”

He was tall, tower-like, and spoke "humming".

The others were fine, but Zuo Cheng was startled and took a step back, his face already losing blood.

Seeing this, Wang Lusheng showed a little embarrassment and apology, and said to Cao Hao: "Master Cao, I'm really sorry for this, I saw a few young masters, and I was happy in my heart, and my voice was a little loud." ”

Cao Hao waved his hand and said, "Brother Wang said that this is an outsider, but the dog is still insufficient, and it is too weak to grow in the hands of a woman." As he spoke, his gaze towards Zuo Cheng was a little reproachful.

Although Zuo Cheng was small, he also noticed that he was rude, and his body quietly turned to the left behind him, not daring to look up at Cao Hao.

Seeing this, Wang Lusheng hurriedly smiled and said to Cao Hao: "There are also people who have never seen rough people, and Cao Ye does not have to be responsible." It seems that I won't like the child anymore, and the little one in my family, although it is in swaddling clothes, is about to cry when he sees me. The little master was not scared to cry, he was already giving me face to the old king. ”

Speaking of this, he whispered to the little servants around him to present the meeting gift.

It was two small ugin daggers with ornate scabbards, without blades, but just to take a meaning; There are also two high-grade inkstones, both of which are from Yizhou.

It was only at this time that I knew that Cao Hao had added two righteous sons, and it was too late for Wang Lusheng to make temporary preparations.

If it is one for each person, there is a dagger and an inkstone, and I don't know how to distribute it.

He hesitated, glanced at Cao Hao, groaned, and said, "Master Cao, look at this ......"

The leather shell of the dagger was inlaid with gold and jade gems, and it looked very valuable; These two ends of the inkstone, looking at its appearance, but it is not ordinary.

Although Cao Hao doesn't play with the Four Treasures of the Study, Mr. Zhuang used to like to play with this, so Cao Hao knows a thing or two.

"Brother Wang broke the bill again, the children's family really ruined good things." Cao Hao said.

"Hey, Cao Ye must not say this, it's just a little filial piety, and you can't take it. It's just that I didn't think about it before, I don't know how to distribute this thing to a few young masters, and I asked Cao Ye to make up my mind. Wang Lusheng laughed twice.

Looking at the dagger and inkstone on the red suede tray, Cao Hao looked at Tianyou and said, "Since it is given by your uncle Wang, you will accept it, and you will discuss and see who picks it first." ”

A few little radish heads, you look at me, I look at yours, everyone's eyes fell on Tianyou.

Tianyou took a step forward and said, "Father, the second brother is the youngest, and the second brother will pick first." ”

When Zuo Zhu and Zuo Cheng heard this, they both nodded hard at their little heads.

Everyone looked at Hengsheng, who had already blushed, raised his head and said, "Father, the child is tall and strong, and no one dares to bully." Not to mention Brother Zuo Cheng, even Brother Zuo Zhu is not the opponent of the child. Children are not the youngest. Let's let Brother Zuo Cheng pick first. ”

Zuo Cheng had regained his composure on his face, listened to Hengsheng's words, and said in a low voice: "Brother pick first." ”

Zuo lived next to him, and also echoed, saying, "Yes, big brother picks first." ”

Looking at the children, humbled to each other like little adults, Cao Hao and Wang Lusheng couldn't help laughing.

"In the past, it was said that there were Kong Rong to let pears, and now there are several young masters who let them give gifts, and there are sons like this, Cao Ye is so blessed!" Wang Lusheng stretched out his thumb and praised repeatedly.

Cao Hao waved his hand and said, "Brother Wang has a good reputation, and he still needs to be disciplined, and he should not be praised." ”

Saying this, Cao Hao's heart couldn't help but feel a little proud, and at the same time, he was a little worried.

Will there be too many rules and constraints, so that several children lose their children's surnames.

Cao Hao was thinking about it, a few children had already launched the succession, it was Zuo Cheng who stepped forward, first took a dagger, and then bowed his head and thanked Wang Lusheng.

Cao Hao saw it, a little strange.

Zuo Cheng has always been loved by everyone in the house because of his poor health, and his surname is a little cowardly, not as solid as other children.

I thought he would choose an inkstone, but I didn't expect him to choose a dagger, presumably attracted by the colorful gems on the dagger sheath.

Next was Hengsheng, who touched the remaining dagger, but was a little hesitant. It wasn't until I saw that my brother was the same as Zuo Zhu, and saw that both of them shook their heads, so I happily picked it up.

The remaining two inkstones, Tianyou and the left two people are divided.

The children thanked Wang Lusheng and were taken down.

Wang Lusheng still has no words to praise, praising Cao Hao's teaching son, which can make their brothers so friendly.

Cao Hao's side, because of the two daggers, remembered that he hadn't looked for a martial artist for the children.

The brothers of the Ren family, Ren Shuyong and Ren Jiyong, have been involved in the Cao family for many years, and they are not very old, but they act safely. As the sons of the squire, they became the members of the Cao family, which was not easy.

Even if there is a heart of fame and fortune, it can be said that he is conscientious to Cao Hao.

Now the two years are not very old, and they have been training in the capital for two years, so they can be the children's martial arts masters, and after two years to make up for the shortcomings and release them, it is not in vain to follow them from Shandong to the capital.

Wang Lusheng and Cao Hao talked about the old things in Yizhou, and it was inevitable that Mr. Zhuang would be mentioned, but the atmosphere was silent.

Wang Lusheng couldn't sit still, got up and said: "Master Cao, although it is only a one-sided relationship with Master Zhuang, I have always respected learned people. It was this time that I went to Beijing, and I also made a special trip to prepare two jars of good wine, intending to worship the old master. If it's cheap, I want to go and put three pillars of incense in front of the old master's spiritual seat, can I make it? ”

Cao Hao naturally didn't have anything to say, so he sent someone to report to the Banyan Courtyard first, and then took Wang Lusheng over to pay respects.

In the main hall of the Banyan Courtyard, the spiritual seat of Mr. Zhuang is enshrined on the table in the hall.

Mr. Zhuang has no children, and both Lianqiu and Xiqiu are concubines, so it is not easy to come out to entertain guests, so only an old woman comes out holding Niuniu's hand.

Speaking of which, this is also Mr. Zhuang's regret.

For Niuniu's sake, he originally planned to straighten out Lianqiu, but before he could do it, he died.

When the news of Mr. Zhuang's death reached the south, his two married daughters just sent people to mourn, and did not mention the placement of his mother's weak sister.

Only Mr. Zhuang's brother, Zhuang Chang, sent a son to Beijing to deliver a letter, mentioning that he wanted to take Lianqiu's mother and son back to Jiangning.

Although Zhuang Chang is a serious relative, he has never known his life, and Piqiu and Xiqiu are not serious brothers and daughters-in-law, so they naturally have a lot of worries, so they still stay in Cao Mansion.

Niuniu was already like a little adult, giving Wang Lusheng a gift in return.

The appearance of this little adult made Wang Lusheng, a man, feel sad.

He gave it here, but the funeral he prepared was real, a box of pearls, which was given to Niuniu to add a dowry in the future, a box of gold bills, and a pocket flower for the two aunts.

Although the courtesy was serious, Cao Hao thanked him for his thoughtfulness, and did not talk to him, let people put it away, and then returned to the living room with Wang Lusheng.

Zheng Hu got the news and came over.

Starting from Zheng Ruixue's side, he and Wang Lusheng are in-laws.

Although he is inferior in generation, Wang Lusheng is not a formal person, and when he speaks, he is also an old friend, which makes people comfortable.

One time less, Wang Quantai also arrived.

It was the second day of the second month of February, and he thought that his uncle would not be able to catch up, but he was still anxious. Unexpectedly, it happened to arrive, which made Wang Quantai overjoyed.

Please see these in peace, there is no need to go into detail.

When he heard that Wang Lusheng was staying in an inn opened by a member of the Wang clan at Qianmen, Wang Quantai did not admit it, saying that he wanted to ask his uncle to move to his side to settle down, but Wang Lusheng politely refused.

For this bidding, Wang Lusheng wanted to see the situation and plug in.

Although Wang Quantai is a cousin, he also participated in this bidding.

Wang Lusheng was not afraid of him, but he didn't want to have a relationship with Brother's Mansion.

Regarding the fact that his cousin abandoned the Cao family and switched to the brother's mansion, Wang Lusheng has never been able to let go.

Even if Wang Quantai mentioned it in his letter, because of Cao Hao's threading of the needle, Wang Lusheng did not believe it.

Until this moment, seeing that Cao Hao treated Wang Quantai as usual, and Wang Quantai did not look weak-hearted, Wang Lusheng believed his previous statement.

For Cao Hao, only more and more grateful.

He was far away from Gyeonggi, and he didn't know that there was a difference between the prince's brother and the prince's brother. I only know that he is a prince, his status is noble, and he is more prominent than the Cao family.

Cao Hao's move was really intended to fulfill his nephew.

People are like this, if they look pleasing to the eye, any words and deeds of the other party will be good. If it is an eyesore, then the same thing can be thought of in a different way.

This is also a "bias".

That night, the Cao family held a banquet here to pick up the wind and wash the dust for Wang Lusheng.

Everyone was so drunk that Wang Lusheng was stunned, and was sent back to the inn by Wang Quantai.

Cao Hao also drank a little too much, his head was a little heavy, and he returned to Wutong Garden to freshen up briefly, and then poured on the kang.

Chu Yu sat in front of the dresser, put down his hair, and just happened to see the two boxes of gems that had been sent by the day.

She glanced at it twice, closed the gem box, and said to Cao Hao: "E, the gift from Wang Qiye this time is very heavy. The New Year's gift of the previous year was not ordinary, and we haven't returned to the ceremony here, and we have come here again. ”

Cao Hao closed his eyes and said: "In the end, it is a family that has been handed down for hundreds of years, and his family has rich assets, so I can't complain that the people in Yizhou call him 'Wang Million'." Although he said it humbly, looking at that appearance, I am afraid that this time he also came prepared, and wanted to win a trade road. ”

Chu Yu didn't understand these things outside.

She got on the kang, went to Cao Hao's side, helped him rub his head, and said, "Speaking of business, Han Jiang's family seems to have come to mention it, looking for me to get an idea, can we Daoxiang Village participate in the trade of the Internal Affairs Bureau?" ”

Cao Hao listened, shook his head, and said, "Not to mention that I am on an errand over there, I want to avoid suspicion; Even if you don't avoid suspicion, you can't mix it. What is Daoxiang Village? That's all about eating in the mouth. Even if you only enter the palace with raw materials, if you have anything to do with it, it is not something you and I can afford. Let her rest this heart, but this bidding charter, after a while I will make someone sort out a copy with her, and go to the back shop, get a small bidding, and save those foreign stewards from making false accounts. ”

Chu Yu responded, and said with a smile: "Xu heard that Steward Zheng's sister was going to participate, which aroused her competitive spirit. She understands these truths, and she should understand them in her heart. In this way, there is no hope for it. ”

The husband and wife talked about giving the Wang family a return gift, the Wang family is rich, there is no shortage of gold and silver, it is better to give some rare things.

Just remembered that Wang Lusheng mentioned that his eldest daughter had promised to marry at the end of this year, Chu Yu had an idea: "Send something made inside, that is something that money can't buy outside." The materials for the clothes, as well as the furnishings in some of the rooms, are also decent for dowry. We don't have much else in our house, but there is no shortage of this. Picking up some things from the storeroom can be regarded as a gesture of gratitude. ”

Cao Hao listened to it and praised it repeatedly.

After finishing business, Cao Hao's hands were a little unruly.

I was already drinking, and my body was hot; Coupled with Chu Yu's little hand rubbing his forehead, it made Cao Hao a little moved.

The Internal Affairs Office is the internal yamen, and in the palace, there is a curfew, so how can anyone enter.

These days, in addition to handling Mr. Zhuang's "77" ceremony, Cao Hao is also busy arranging bidding.

The venue set up in an idle warehouse of the Ministry of Internal Affairs on the side of Mixiang in the Dongjiang River also sent posts to the merchants on the brochure of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and everything was ready, just waiting for February 2.

Cao Hao was so busy that he hit the back of his head, where did he still have the strength to Dunlun?

Count the sons, the husband and wife, and there have been several days that they have never been intimate.

Chu Yu was also hot when she was touched, but she was afraid that her husband would be tired, so she said in a low voice: "My forehead is drunk, do you want to rest earlier?" ”

Cao Hao was already moving his hands together, and his mouth responded: "Naturally, it should be earlier, lady, let's turn off the lights." ”

This is still the name of the husband and wife who listened to the drama in the early years, and laughed in the boudoir, and those who have had children in the past two years are no longer as greasy as in the morning.

Chu Yu saw him like this, so he let him do it.

Between the beds, Cao Hao worked very hard, sweating with relish, listening to the coquettish moaning under him, but he couldn't help but tremble...... * Jiubeizi Mansion, bedroom.

Although the climate is early in spring, the cold outside has not subsided, but the house is full of spring.

On the square table underground, there was smoke and ambergris.

In the red tent, Brother Jiu closed his eyes and lay down on the carved bed with the word "big". Below him, a woman with long black hair was scattered, and her mouth was the root of his life.

On top of him, another woman reached out and rubbed his chest.

Brother Jiu's feet are against the soft muscles of the beauty below; His hands were not idle, pulling off the red belly pocket of the beauty above and rubbing the nephrite jade on his chest.

Brother Jiu only felt that his whole body was full of Tai, and he couldn't stop inhaling, and he couldn't help but praise Li Xu's knowledge, and found this pair of wonderful people to send it.

This number of depression can't be swept away in this warm fragrant nephrite, tomorrow, it's the first day of February......
