Because today is the full moon of his niece, Cao Shuo and Cao Xiang brothers rushed back from Haidian. Seeing Cao Hao coming back from Rehe, the two brothers were also a little happy.

After seeing the gift from the Yan family, Cao Song remembered Li Wei's visit, whispered to Cao Hao, and mentioned the five hundred taels of silver.

Cao Hao heard that it was Li Wei who was visiting, so he asked carefully, and was very curious about him. Looking at the age and temperament, this Li Wei really has a bit of chivalrous nature, maybe he is really the "model governor" of the Yongzheng Dynasty.

Hearing that Dong Ejinghui's ancestors and grandchildren were in dire straits, Cao Hao didn't care about Cao Song taking the money to help. It's just that with Jue Luo's temper, he may not be willing to be helped.

Cao Hao patted Cao Song's shoulder and said, "The title of Jinghui's ancestor has been reformed, and now it is just a family of ordinary people, and their ancestors and grandchildren have no money to spare, I am afraid that if you want to ask for this family business, the second aunt will have more resistance." In the end, there is a difference between men and women, before the name is decided, you should act more appropriately, and you must not leave any tongue behind and tarnish Jinghui's reputation. ”

Cao Song looked stunned, but he was speechless.

Seeing that Cao Hao's face was a little pale, Cao Song was afraid that his brother would be tired, so he asked Cao Hao to sit in the front hall, and he took his two brothers to greet guests in the courtyard.

There were also a lot of guests in the front hall, Cao Hao nodded, and before he could go to the front hall, he heard someone laugh and say, "Fu Ruo? You're back, and I'm just in time! ”

But it was the Shaoqing Yidu of Taifu Temple who arrived, he turned over and dismounted, handed the reins to the little guy, took two steps forward, looked Cao Hao up and down carefully, nodded and said: "It's okay, just look at the reduction, and the spirit is down!" ”

Cao Song, Cao Shuo, and Cao Xiang brothers stood behind Cao Hao, saw Yi Duli, and hurriedly greeted a thousand salutes: "Sixth Uncle An!" ”

Ituli's wife is the cousin of the Zhaojia clan and the sixth daughter of Malhan. Speaking of which, he is the cousin of the Cao Song brothers.

Yiduli waved his hand at Cao Song and them, motioned for them to get up, and said to Cao Song with a smile: "Listen to your aunt, when you show filial piety, your mother will tell you to kiss, haha, you are twenty years old, and you have reached the age of marrying a daughter-in-law." ”

Cao Song's face was red, he lowered his head and snorted, not knowing what he was muttering.

Yi Duli turned around and entered the courtyard with Cao Hao and the others, and said: "I thought that you hadn't come back yet, and only sent your aunt to congratulate me, but in the morning, I saw people from your mansion go to the yamen to get a report from the palace, and I realized that you had arrived in Beijing yesterday." Speaking of this, with a little worry, he lowered his voice and said, "What the hell is going on?" I have two cousins who are also accompanying Rehe, and they wrote to talk about it, but they said different things. ”

Cao Hao glanced at Yi Duli, and he couldn't understand in his heart, whether this Yi Duli was close to the thirteenth elder brother or the fourteenth elder brother. Look at him, he is very affectionate with everyone.

Therefore, he also vaguely said: "It's just unlucky, I happened to be pulled by the sixteenth master to go around, otherwise I wouldn't have set up this." ”

As they spoke, the two of them went to the hall. Most of the people in the room are young people, because the news of Cao Hao's return to Beijing is not known to everyone, so there are not as many male guests as female guests.

After saying the gossip, Yi Du Li remembered that he hadn't congratulated him yet, and said to Cao Hao with a smile: "Fu Ruo is the age of a weak crown, and now he has both children and daughters, he is really envious of others!" ”

When the brothers Feng De and Feng Che saw their uncle coming, they all got up and saluted.

In front of several little brothers in King Chun's Mansion, in turn, it was Yidu Li who came to perform the ceremony...... * Not to mention the male guests in the front yard, but also the female guests in the second gate, after seeing the children in Wutong Garden, the older and senior ones went to Zhaojia's Shaoyuan to talk, and the younger ones stayed in Wutong Garden to accompany Chu Yu.

Except for the Chunjun Wangfu and the Pingjun Wangfu, who got the letter earlier, knowing that the child's eyes were a little out of the way, the others were all surprised when they saw Tianhui.

Although they also said auspicious words in their mouths, many people's expressions were a little stiff.

Chu Yu smiled and accompanied the guests, but he didn't know.

Cao Jia's family, Cao Yi and Cao Yan are aunts, and they treat their nieces differently from other relatives.

Cao Jiashi was afraid that Chu Yu would be uncomfortable, so he didn't know about his niece's strange appearance, hugged his niece, kissed her twice, and said with a smile: "What a handsome little appearance, this is only the full moon, and I can see that she is a little beauty." Look at this little mouth pouting, we Tianhui are ashamed! ”

When Chu Yu gave birth, Cao Yi was in confinement, so she didn't come to visit, but I also heard that it was a child who was born after a few days of tossing. She took Chu Yu's hand and said, "Sister-in-law, Tianhui should be blessed to have her brother and sister-in-law to protect her." ”

Cao Yan is not as eloquent as Cao Jia's and Cao Yi, so he can only smile and say, "The third sister is right!" ”

Several young women present, in addition to the three sisters of the Cao family, there are also Yongqing's wife Qi Jia, Chu Yu's younger daughter-in-law Borzigit, and the daughter-in-law of the brothers Fengde and Fengche. Zhaojia Ruhui was also there, following the two sisters-in-law, listening to everyone's conversation.

Seeing that everyone was cautious when they spoke, Ruhui felt a little bored, leaned over, stood beside Cao Jiashi, looked at Tianhui, stretched out the tips of her fingers, touched her little face, and said: "It's the same word as my name, in the future, it is designated as a smart female doll!" ”

Cao Jiashi saw that the child had dozed off, so he called ** over and waited for the child to breastfeed.

After listening to Ruhui's words, Cao Jiashi turned his head to look at her, and quipped: "Is this praising your niece and nephew, or praising yourself?" I heard that my cousin's good things are coming, but I have to change my name in the future! ”

Ruhui's face was flushed when she was said, and she said in a low voice: "I'll go and see my mother and aunt!" Before the words were spoken, the people had already rushed out.

Everyone in the room laughed, and Fengde's daughter-in-law smiled and said, "This is to say kiss, I know it." ”

Cao Jia's family has heard that Zhao Jia's family wants to tell Cao Song about Ruhui. Although the Shilang Mansion is worthy of the Cao family, this Ruhui speech and demeanor are not as quiet as ordinary ladies, the surname is a little jumpy, and the second room eldest daughter-in-law is not appropriate.

It's just that, after all, this is a matter of the second room, and with the Zhaojia clan in charge, it is naturally not her turn to speak as a married cousin.

I heard that the Shilang Mansion didn't take a fancy to Cao Song, but now that Mrs. Shilang can bring her daughter over, she must have a little bit of willingness in her heart.

Chu Yu was in no mood to pay attention to anything else because of Tianhui's affairs, but just forced a smile to listen to everyone.

But he said that Ruhui came out of Wutong Garden quickly, biting her lip, feeling ashamed and regretful. It's just that she was suffocated in the house, so she accompanied her mother to dinner.

She didn't have any idea about her aunt's proposal. In this marriage event, where can she have her own words, isn't it all "the order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker", who can be self-sufficient?

In the end, she thinks less, the relatives of the two families must have already known about their relationship, wouldn't she be laughed at and cheeky when she came to eat and drink with her mother like this?

The more Ruhui thought about it, the more ashamed she became, and she was already a little annoyed in her heart, thinking about going to the Peony Courtyard quickly, so she said that she was not feeling well, and pulled her mother back first.

Thinking like this in her heart, the faster her steps became, and she was about to reach the gate of the Peony Courtyard. Her personal maid followed behind, already out of breath, seeing that the young lady was about to hit someone, she hurriedly said: "Girl......"

But it was already late, so I heard the sound of "oops", and Ruhui stumbled and sat on the ground. She only felt that her ankle was intently hurting, and tears were about to come out.

Ruhui raised her head, the one who was covering her nose and looking sneered, which one was not the third cousin Cao Shuo?

Ruhui immediately became angry in her heart, and said angrily: "Are you blind, hit people? ”

Cao Shuo covered his nose, but it was not comfortable. He was supposed to accompany the guests in the front yard with his younger brother, and the second door sent a message that the second wife meant, and asked their brothers to come and greet their aunts and aunts.

Cao Song heard the word "aunt", his head was big, and he sent his two younger brothers over, but he found a reason for chaos and stayed in the front yard.

Cao Shuo and Cao Xiang, one sixteen, one fourteen, were also impatient to get together with the female dependents. But there is no way, even if the mother has spoken, then they can only come over reluctantly.

When he arrived at the gate of the Shaoyuan, Cao Shuo saw a girl in a flag costume walking over with her head down, and she didn't know whose girl it was, and she thought about whether to lead her younger brother to avoid it, but she was bumped into her arms.

Ruhui was already tall and tall, and she was wearing the bottom of a flower pot, and she lowered her head and just hit the bridge of Cao Shuo's nose.

Cao Shuo only felt that his nose was sore, wet and wet, and blood was already flowing out. He was still startled, and when he heard the angry scolding, he recognized it as his cousin.

When they first entered Beijing last year, Zhao Jia took a few of their brothers to Shilang's Mansion. Although they are close relatives, after all, there are differences between men and women, so Cao Shuo has only seen this cousin.

Now, this cousin is still beautiful, but her eyebrows are raised, and she is vicious, Cao Shuo only thinks of one sentence in his heart, that is, "Only villains and women are difficult to raise", and Sage Kong does not deceive me.

However, he has read the books of sages since he was a child, and he has no reason to deal with women in trouble, so he sneered: "Cousin ......"

Ruhui only felt that her ankle was painful, raised her head to look at her aunt's yard, and then looked back at Wutong Garden. Now, both of them are guests, and her embarrassed appearance is very embarrassing.

She held the maid's hand and wanted to stand up, but where could she stand?

She stretched out her hand, pointed at Cao Shuo, and commanded, "You, why don't you call the two mothers-in-law to carry me, do you want me to sit like this?" ”

Cao Shuo nodded hurriedly when he heard this, and was about to go to Wutong Garden, but was immediately stopped by Ruhui and said, "My aunt's house is full of guests, do you want me to have no face?" Why don't you call someone else and help me find a quiet place to see the injury? ”

Cao Shuo only felt that his scalp was numb, and he was thinking about where to call someone, when two mothers-in-law came over from the kitchen. Cao Shuo hurriedly shouted over and asked them to help Ruhui up.

Since it is a quiet place, the Wutong Garden and the Peony Courtyard are not good, Cao Shuo couldn't do it for a while, Ruhui urged him to hurry, so he let the two mothers-in-law take Ruhui to the Kwai Courtyard. He and Cao Xiang didn't care about going to his aunt and aunt to say goodbye first, and they also went with him.

Hengsheng went to Wutong Garden by **, and Wu En stayed here with a little girl to watch the house.

Seeing that the two masters brought a girl in, although Wu En was surprised, he hurriedly gave Cao Shuo and Cao Xiang a salute.

When he entered the upper room, Ruhui saw that there was a cradle on the kang, frowned and asked, "Whose house is this?" ”

Cao Shuo replied: "It was my brother's old house, and then my fifth sister lived there. Because of the birth of his sister-in-law, Hengsheng's nephew is now also in this yard. ”

Ruhui heard that it was her cousin's house, so she looked good.

Since he didn't know what her injuries were, Cao Shuo sent Unn to ask Amethyst to come over.

After a while, Amethyst came back in a hurry, saw Cao Shuo and Cao Xiang here, and said: "Third master, fourth master, the second wife has sent several waves of people to the second gate, calling you to go quickly." As she spoke, she saw that there was still a person sitting on the kang, but she had never seen it.

Cao Shuo was also afraid of his mother's nagging, so he turned sideways and said to Amethyst: "Sister Amethyst, this is my cousin of my uncle's family, it seems that I twisted my ankle, please ask my sister to send someone to invite a doctor to take a look, and I will go with my fourth brother to greet my aunts and uncles." ”

Regarding Zhao Jia's desire to ask to marry his niece as the eldest daughter-in-law, Amethyst has also heard of it.

"It turned out to be Miss Table!" Amethyst blessed Ruhui, and then said to Cao Shuo and Cao Xiang: "The third master and the fourth master should go quickly, so as not to make the second wife wait in a hurry, the slave will send someone to ask for the imperial doctor, and the two masters don't have to worry." ”

"Yes!" Cao Shuo and Cao Xiang both responded with each other, and said goodbye to Ruhui before walking away.

Ruhui was already annoyed, originally saw that Amethyst was dressed well, Cao Shuo and Cao Xiang were so respectful, they were just relatives or something, but they didn't expect it to be a slave.

If this is the case, Cao Shuo should have introduced Amethyst to her first, where is the reason to introduce her to the slave first? Could it be that the slaves and maids of the Earl's Mansion are superior to others, and they are even more noble than her, the young lady of the Servant's Mansion?

Ruhui didn't know if Cao Shuo forgot the etiquette in a panic, or deliberately humiliated her, but she felt angry and hateful ...... * front yard, living room.

Cao Hao was talking with Yi Duli, and the chief housekeeper Cao Zhong bowed in and replied: "Uncle, the fourteenth elder brother Tongsheng and the second master are here, just arrived at the gate, look at ......"

Yongsheng is not unusual, why is he still following a fourteenth elder brother......
