Jiangning Weaving House, Kaiyang Courtyard, upper room.

Cao Fu looked at Cao Yin, who was a little staggering, hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and asked worriedly, "Uncle, are you...... Are you okay? ”

Cao Yin rubbed his temples, took a few steps back, and sat down in a chair. He looked up at Cao Fu and frowned, "Didn't you come to this courtyard?" How can you be disobedient? ”

Tianyou's voice in the inner room gradually became hoarse, and there was Li's low sobbing, Cao Fu lowered his head and whispered: "My nephew is really not at ease!" ”

Cao Yin patted him on the shoulder and said, "I know that you are a good boy, but this is not a joke, God bless one, your aunt and I are tired, do you want our old couple to worry about you?" ”

Cao Fu shook his head and said, "My nephew doesn't go into the back room, but I don't worry about Tianyou and my uncle!" ”

Cao Yin sighed and said, "Tianyou is a blessed child, it will get better!" ”

Cao Fu was a little puzzled and asked, "Uncle, didn't Tianyou plant flowers?" How do you get a pimple? ”

Cao Yin replied: "Although Tianyou said that the flowers were planted, it was smallpox and pox. Although it was also a pox this time, it was chickenpox, not a positive pox. Although it is not as dangerous as smallpox, God bless him with his young ......" In the end, he was also a little worried: "This thing will not be born once and will not be regenerated, I have given birth to your aunt earlier, you are young, you should be avoided." When you come back from this house in a while, you bathe and change your clothes and light some incense! ”

Cao Fu responded one by one, and because he was afraid that Cao Yin would be seriously injured after thinking about it, he had to persuade him again.

Cao Yin wanted to go into the house to see his grandson, but he was afraid that it would be inappropriate for his nephew to stay in this house for a long time, so he called an old adult wife and sent him back to the yard.

In the back room, Li sat on the edge of the kang, looking at "Wow Wow" crying non-stop Tianyou, and followed the tears in distress.

Tianyou's face was flushed, his face and neck were full of shiny chickenpox, and his two small hands had been tied around his body for fear of him scratching him.

Tianyou itched so much that he couldn't do it, and his whole body burned uncomfortably, so he had to cry. The small body is rickety, and it looks very pitiful.

Because he had already begun to learn to speak, Tianyou cried and called people at the same time, "grandfather", "grandmother", "uncle", and "grandmother" all shouted. The more he shouted, the more miserable he became, and finally his eyes rolled and he was already crying and convulsing.

Cao Yin also entered the house, and when he saw that the baby eldest grandson was like this, he was so anxious that he stomped his feet.

God's ** Liu family, brought the boiled Dalian Qiao soup. Seeing Tianyou like this, she never broke her tears.

Seeing that the medicine was coming, Li leaned over and coaxed: "Good grandson, let's stop crying, just drink the medicine!" ”

Where can Tianyou understand this, the two little arms were tied and couldn't move, shaking their little faces vigorously, crying: "Scratch...... Scratch ......"

Li Shi wiped Tianyou's tears with a handkerchief, and for fear of touching the blisters on his face, he carefully took a while.

The medicine was almost cold, the Li family hugged Tianyou, and the Liu family fed Tianyou with a spoon one bite at a time.

Tianyou Xu was tired of crying, and gradually stopped his voice, but his body twitched, and his little neck was straight.

The medicine of a spoon had to be spit out halfway, and several pieces of bibs were wet, and God blessed the medicine before he finished it.

After a while, the medicinal power dissipated, and Tianyou quieted down and fell into a deep sleep.

Li was busy for a long time, his face was covered with sweat, and he instructed ** to take care of Tianyou and go outside to change clothes.

Cao Yin was afraid of alarming Tianyou, so he also came out, but his expression was full of anxiety.

Although Li was also panicked, but seeing that in just a few days, most of her husband's hair was gray, and he was afraid that he would not be able to survive when he was old, so he persuaded him: "Master don't worry too much, no one's children are all boiled like this!" Although Tianyou is fierce, the pox poison has been released, and it will be good to scab over in a few days! ”

Cao Yin nodded and said, "I hope so!" Saying that, he looked at the Li family, and was a little uneasy, and said: "You have been watching it for several nights, and you will also take a round with the next people, it is not good to take care of your grandson and make you tired and sick again!" ”

Li Shi changed into clean clothes, wiped his face, pinched his arm, and said: "In the past, I only used to be the root of my life, but now I know that this little one is even more dead." Don't say that Tianyou is well-behaved and painful, just say that the son and daughter-in-law are willing to send the child to us, which can't tolerate the slightest mistake, or what face will there be to see the son and daughter-in-law? Speaking of this, he remembered something and asked, "Master, don't you need to write to your son and daughter-in-law?" ”

Cao Yin waved his hand and said: "This is far away, when the letter is delivered, Tianyou will be fine, let them and their husbands and wives follow and worry, or wait for Tianyou to get better, and then talk!" ”

Li thought to himself, what if one day you ...... It was not too late to deliver the letter, but she did not want to think of the inauspicious thought in her heart, so she closed her mouth and said no more.

Cao Yin sat there, remembering the letter sent by Li Xu in Suzhou, Li Ding's body had been found in Shichahai, and now it has become a mystery. The Li family whip is beyond the reach of the whip, and the only thing that can be counted on is that Cao Hao is in the capital, helping to pay attention to the surroundings.

Cao Yin glanced at his wife and did not tell her about it.

Cao Hao's family letter in Beijing was also written in these two days, mentioning the matter of purchasing sacrificial fields, and Cao Yin only felt guilty in his heart.

He, the father, really didn't take responsibility, and let his son bear everything.

* Beijing, Caofu, Wutong Garden.

Chu Yu was sick, she didn't think about eating, and when she thought of her son, she could only cry. But he couldn't say it to Cao Hao, for fear that he would think that he was unwilling to send Tianyou to his in-laws. Therefore, whenever Cao Hao asked her the reason for her discomfort, she only deduced that she was inexplicably sad.

When Cao Hao saw it, he was very helpless, but he only had good words to persuade him.

When Chu Yu was pregnant with Tianyou, there was also a period of mental instability. Cao Hao only thought that this time was like this again, and carefully coaxed, and every time he went to the yamen, he asked Amethyst to help take care of it.

There are some things that Chu Yu is not good to say to Cao Hao, but he does not hide it from Amethyst.

Amethyst listened to Chu Yu's worries, and couldn't help but persuade: "Grandma, this is really worried, not to mention that the young master is by the side of the master and wife, naturally he is also treated like a treasure, but there is really an uncomfortable, and the letter from Jiangning's side has also arrived early!" ”

Chu Yu still couldn't let go and muttered, "But, but I dreamed that a child called me 'mother'...... Crying so much......"

Amethyst said angrily: "Grandma is really, is there only one young master in my heart?" Why did you forget that you still have one in your belly? This may be a fetal dream, tell grandma in advance that you are a little master in your belly! ”

Chu Yu took Amethyst's hand, shook his head, and said with tears in his eyes: "Sister Amethyst, I really think it's Tianyou calling me...... It makes me feel so uncomfortable, and I feel so sour that I can't do it......"

Amethyst took out a handkerchief, helped Chu Yu wipe her face, and said, "If grandma is really relieved, she will send a letter to the old lady to ask." Otherwise, it's good to send the two daughters-in-law to the south to take a look, but you can't just think about yourself like this, grandma is a double body, and if she hurts her body at this time, how can the little master in her belly be good? ”

Chu Yu knew that Amethyst was right, so she collected her tears. Although she was a daughter-in-law, she didn't have the courage to write a letter to ask her father-in-law how she was doing, but she remembered that her husband had just gone to the south a few days ago to write to his family, so she waited for a reply from the south.

Although his body was not comfortable, Chu Yu had to worry about some things, so he entrusted Amethyst, including offering a longevity ceremony to the palace, preparing for the full moon ceremony of the sixteenth elder brother and concubine, and the matter of dim sum shop.

Cao Fang took people to break ground in the capital, Han Jiang sent two stewards to Suzhou to invite dim sum masters, and Cao Hao also sent a letter to Wei Xin in Guangzhou, asking him to help invite two Cantonese dim sum masters to Beijing.

Although Amethyst has always been a housekeeper, she has never asked Chu Yu's dowry because of her sense of proportion. Now, this has become an opportunity, so that Chu Yu has handed over several properties in the dowry to Amethyst.

Amethyst is busy all day, and there is less effort in chanting Buddha.

After a few days, Jiang Ning's letter arrived, and the family was safe, and there was no bad news. Chu Yu's illness was cured, and he only thought that he was too careful, and began to raise the fetus with peace of mind.

During this period, the Han Jiang clan came once, and it was Amethyst who went out to see him.

Because Han Jiang had already made a mistake, he became more cautious in his dealings with the Cao family, for fear that there would be any more rudeness. Although Amethyst claimed to be a descendant of the Cao family, she did not dare to slack off based on her words and demeanor.

Amethyst had heard Chu Yu mention the identity of the Han Jiang clan, and knew that she was the owner of Jiangning Liuhe Qian Zhuang, and she was a little cautious in her heart.

Because she has helped Cao Hao manage the accounts in the past few years, she also knows about the business in Guangzhou. Cao Hao bought a few pieces of land at the beginning of last year, except for helping the second house buy a small village, the rest were sent to Jiangning Liuhe Qianzhuang to repay the previous loan.

Regarding the matter of the dim sum shop, the two talked about some details of the sale, both with a bit of ability and shrewdness, and they were somewhat convinced of each other.

After coming out of Cao's Mansion, Han Jiang did not return to the house immediately, but asked the coachman to go to Qianmen Street.

She is a strong person, and she wants to do better than anything she does, so as not to make people laugh at a woman. In addition, this time she was doing business under the banner of the Cao family, and there was also her uncle's favor in the middle, and she also wanted to make some money to repay the Cao family's kindness.

Because she was wearing a face towel, she was not afraid of being seen, so she instructed the mother-in-law who followed her out, and when she saw the dim sum shop, she told her. She memorized the location of the shop by heart, and then sent her mother-in-law to buy a snack.

After looking at several shops, although there are also southern-style dim sum sold among them, but there are not many colors, and the taste is not authentic, or Beijing snacks. Han Jiang's became more and more concerned, and by the way, he followed a few southern goods shops at the front door. What is more and what is less, she also remembers it in her heart.

It was almost time to see, and Han Jiang instructed the coachman to see the carriage and rush to a shop under Chu Yu's name. According to Cao Hao's guidance, this dim sum shop should be in front of the store and the back factory, and the place should not be too narrow.

Han Jiang didn't get out of the carriage, but just followed the side curtain of the carriage and looked at the shop that was still being repaired. Although it is not a prosperous area, this place has a silver building, a silk Zhuangzi, a tavern and a tea house, and it is also a good place to go shopping.

She exhaled, thinking in her heart that it would take two or three months for this person to go to the south, coming and going, plus the words of the master looking for the master.

Fortunately, after escaping the summer heat, it will open at the end of July and early August, just in time for the Mid-Autumn Festival, and then the Chung Yeung Festival. This autumn and winter month is a good time to sell dim sum.

After staying up for a few months, it became a little famous, and at the end of the year, when the family offered gifts, this snack box became a big head again.

She had a little smile on her face, and was just about to put the curtain down, when she heard someone say, "Excuse me...... Excuse me, but is it the sister of the Jiang family? ”

Han Jiang only heard that the voice was a little familiar, and he looked at the voice, but there was a young woman standing in front of the silver building next to the dim sum shop. The young woman had just gotten out of the carriage, smiling and helping a little girl to stand still, wearing a lotus-colored shirt and azure embroidered skirt, looking very refreshing and pretty.

Although it was a little familiar, Han Jiang couldn't remember who this person was in front of him for a while.

That person was none other than Yang Ruixue, who married Yidu as an outer room a few years ago. Coincidentally, the silver building that Li Xu gave her last year happened to be next door to Chu Yu's shop.

Yang Ruixue has made up her mind to have a good time, and she is not as inattentive to the silver transaction as she used to be, and she has to come a few times a month, for fear that the shopkeepers will not care.

Today, when she passed the Silver Building, she happened to see Han Jiang's carriage.

Because the Han Jiang clan planned to stay away from the clansmen of Jiangning and settle in the capital, this time they came and brought everything they often used, including this carriage.

Although she wore a veil and sat in the carriage without seeing anyone, Yang Ruixue recognized Han Jiang's carriage.

When they were not out of the cabinet, everyone was a celebrity in Jiangning, and they had some dealings with each other. The little girl's family, when they get together, in addition to comparing their appearance and talent, this dressing up, and the identity of the family are also very competitive.

Yang Ruixue's carriage was made by her maternal grandfather, the Bai family, and it was very exquisite and gorgeous, but it was not as magnificent as the carriage of the second lady of the Jiang family of Liuhe Qianzhuang. Because of this, she also talked to her parents for several days, so she remembers it very clearly......
