A satisfied smile appeared on Cao's face.

"Go and tell the kitchen, the second miss is eating in the main courtyard today, let them cook a few more dishes that the second miss likes to eat," Cao Shi instructed the maid next to him, and smiled at Wei Xian: "Xian'er may not have eaten with me for a long time." ”

"My daughter wants to be by her mother's side every day," Wei Xian said with a smile: "It's just that my mother manages the housework in the house, and she is already very tired, and my daughter is stupid and can't help her mother, so I can only try not to bother my mother in small things......"

Wei Ya, who was sitting next to Cao, heard this, turned her head and rolled her eyes at Wei Xian angrily.

Wei Xian smiled at Wei Ya as usual, but Wei Ya wiped her face disdainfully.

Seeing everything, Cao sighed slightly in his heart, patted Wei Ya's arm as punishment, and after saying two more words, he sent Wei Ya back to her yard to change clothes and clean her hands.

After Wei Ya left, Cao Shi did not speak, but picked up the tea cup and slowly took two sips of tea.

There was a moment of silence in the room.

Wei Xian, who stood with her head down, involuntarily clenched her fists in her sleeves.

"Xian'er, come and sit." Putting down the teacup, Cao Shi waved his hand and motioned for Wei Xian to sit on the small pestle beside her.

Wei Xian hurriedly walked over a few steps, and sat down next to the small pestle with her back straight.

Cao Shi carefully looked at Wei Xian, who was slightly restrained in front of him.

"Mother, why does mother look at her daughter like this," Wei Xian was a little uncomfortable by Cao's gaze, she touched her face, and asked with a smile, "But what is stuck to my daughter's face?" ”

"There's nothing," Cao shook his head, looked at Wei Xian's chest, squinted his eyes, and said with a smile: "Mother is a little surprised, this has just been a year, and our second miss is so beautiful." ”

Wei Xian followed Cao's gaze and looked down, and instantly understood what Cao was referring to, and her face turned red when she brushed it.

"Mother, mother actually made fun of her daughter......" Wei Xian was still very satisfied with her development, her expression was twisted and couldn't help but bring some self-satisfaction, but she didn't forget to please Cao, and murmured in a low voice: "My sister has a mother...... Better ......"

"Although you didn't come out of my belly, you also called my mother for seventeen years," Cao Shi took Wei Xian's hand and said heartily: "You must understand in your heart that your mother treats you as her own daughter, and she hopes that you will have a smooth life in the future......"

"Mother is good to Xian'er, Xian'er naturally knows," Wei Xian hurriedly stood up and said gratefully: "It is a blessing for a daughter to have a mother like you......"

After listening to some words of gratitude, Cao Shi was very satisfied, and motioned for Wei Xian to sit down beside her.

"I've heard," Cao asked seemingly casually, "Aunt Tao has been a little uncomfortable these days, is she in trouble?" ”

"This ......" Thinking of the reason why Aunt Tao was uncomfortable, Wei Xian's face was a little embarrassed, and she muttered to explain: "Auntie's body is fine, it's just that she is a little tired, just a little tired, just rest for a few days......"

Wei Xian's biological mother, Aunt Tao, has always wanted a son, but she can't conceive it, so every month when her Kwai Shui comes, she will take someone out of anger and report to Cao's mother...... This is something that everyone knows about the second room.

Seeing Wei Xian's face like this, Cao Shi showed a look of sudden understanding.

"Hey!" Cao Shi let out a long sigh, and said with some pity in his tone: "Aunt Tao is really, with such a good daughter as you by her side, why do you have to force ......?"

Wei Xian lowered her head, her right hand couldn't help but touch her left wrist, which was still a little painful, and the situation of the morning seemed to appear in front of her again: the unkempt Aunt Tao pushed her away fiercely, crying, why are you a daughter......

Wei Xian closed her eyes, she remembered that when she was young, although Aunt Tao was also looking forward to giving birth to a son, she was also really loving her only daughter, but as she grew up year by year, Aunt Tao's obsession with giving birth to a child became deeper and deeper, I don't know when it started, Aunt Tao's accumulated resentment gradually turned to her......

Wei Xian secretly clenched her fists, as if there was a fire burning in her heart, she thought, except for her background, she was no worse than anyone else, but her background was not something she could choose...... She swore in her heart that she would definitely prove it to Aunt Tao that although she was not a man, she could still seek a happy old age for Aunt Tao.

Neither of them spoke for a moment.

The maid re-served a cup of hot tea for Cao and Weixian.

The fragrant fragrance of tea lingered, and Wei Xian looked at the tea cup in her hand, her eyes flashing.

She is a daughter's family, and only if she marries a good husband, Aunt Tao will live well in the house.

However, her marriage was decided by the Cao family.

Wei Xian remembered that Feng's mother deliberately mentioned to her in the morning that the Cao family was very worried about Aunt Zhang in Xiyuan...... I thought of Cao's hint that she had grown up, intentionally or unintentionally...... There are also childless biological mothers......

Wei Xian picked up the teacup, took a sip, paused, and praised sincerely: "Mother's Biluochun here is really refreshing, and the aftertaste is endless. ”

"Oh, you like it?" Cao Shi smiled and said, "This is not a rare thing, since you like it?" Later, I'll ask the maid to pack some for you and take home. ”

"No, no, where did my daughter use such expensive tea, it would only spoil her mother's good things in vain......" Wei Xian knew that this Biluochun was Cao's beloved thing, so she hurriedly excused herself, and said with a smile: "However, my mother can give some to Aunt Zhang's grandmother, and my daughter thinks that her old man will definitely like it." ”

"Oh?" Hearing that Wei Xian finally took the initiative to mention Aunt Zhang, the smile on Cao's face couldn't help but deepen, and she said with some surprise: "Do you know that Aunt Zhang, like me, likes Biluochun?" ”

"My daughter didn't know it before," Wei Xian said with a smile: "Just now in Xiyuan, I happened to meet Mother Tao, and when my daughter saw Mother Tao's hurried look, she first thought that her grandmother had something to order, so she asked more, but she didn't want to, Mother Tao was looking for a good Biluochun for Aunt Zhang in the small Buddha Hall...... Mother, you know, grandmother's favorite tea is Junshan silver needle, in Xi Garden, there is no shortage of top Junshan silver needle, but there is no good Biluochun...... Aunt Zhang naturally can't get used to it......"

Even the use of tea is so particular, and she also instructed the most powerful mother Tao in Xiyuan to go to Zhang Luo in person......

Wei Xian's original intention was to inform the Cao family that Aunt Zhang and Grandma Zhang had the care of Mother Tao in Xi Garden, and her life was no worse than in her own yard, so that the Cao family did not have to worry about Aunt Zhang.

It's just that these words, listening to Cao's ears, made her have other thoughts in her heart.

Xiyuan's mother Tao is also the mother of Aunt Tao in the second room.

Aunt Tao was in a bad mood, so she dared to lie and take leave and not go to the main courtyard to ask for peace, Wei Xian is a concubine, but she is so face-saving in front of the Cao family...... In the final analysis, the biggest reason for Cao's tolerance is because of Xiyuan's Tao mother.

The relationship between Tao's mother and Aunt Zhang's grandmother is good, that is, Aunt Tao has a good relationship with Aunt Zhang's grandmother, and the second grandfather Weijie is a person who respects his biological mother......

In Cao's heart, he naturally didn't want the relationship between Tao's mother and Aunt Zhang's grandmother to be "special" good......

"And such a thing! Oh, how can these bother Mother Tao......" Cao's face was surprised, and then he said to Wei Xian with a discussion: "Otherwise, I'll go to Xiyuan to send some to Aunt Zhang......"

Mrs. Tai's small Buddha hall, to put it bluntly, is a punishment room set up by Mrs. Tai for the concubines of the old marquis in her early years, the so-called copying of scriptures, but according to the severity of the mistake, Mrs. Tai decides whether the person should stand and copy, or kneel to copy, or kneel and copy......

Since it's a punishment, how can you send something for entertainment and go against Mrs. Tai.

Wei Xian looked at Cao's burning gaze and smiled.

"Mother has a lot of things, and such a small thing as delivering tea is not worth doing in person...... Besides, Aunt Zhang's grandmother was copying scriptures in the small Buddha hall, and Mrs. Tai didn't want anyone to disturb her...... Mother knows that Mother Tao and Aunt Zhang have a friendship when they were young, and they should help as much as they can......" Wei Xian's clear analysis to Cao's listen, seeing Cao's gaze change several times, and said with a flattering smile: "If the mother trusts her daughter, she can hand over this matter to her daughter, and the daughter found an opportunity to ask Tao's mother to transfer the tea to Aunt Zhang...... Aunt Zhang will definitely read her mother's good ......"

Cao Shi's face showed a pleased smile, held Wei Xian's hand, and praised: "Our second young lady has really grown up, and she can share her mother's worries." ”

"These are just some of my daughter's superficial thoughts," Wei Xian's face showed a look of excitement and shyness, and she said with a little blush: "It is a blessing for a daughter to be able to enter her mother's ears......"

"In the future, I have to come to talk to my mother often, and there is a lack of caring people like you around my mother......" praised Wei Xian a few words, and Cao said with some concern: "Your father went out to meet friends, and he still doesn't know about Aunt Zhang's grandmother, hey!" If he knew this, he would definitely be in a hurry again......" glanced at Wei Xian, and sighed suspiciously: "You said, Aunt Zhang's grandmother went to the small Buddha hall in Xiyuan to copy scriptures, and this time, I don't know what Aunt Zhang did......

In the years when Cao and the second master Wei Jie got married, because the second master was not motivated, Mrs. Tai angrily punished Aunt Zhang and grandma Zhang to copy scriptures in the small Buddha hall, because of the filial piety of the second master Wei Jie to Aunt Zhang, every time Aunt Zhang was punished, the second master could also be detained for a period of time...... In recent years, Mrs. Tai has stopped caring about the affairs of the second master, and Aunt Zhang has coaxed Mrs. Tai very well......

Cao was asking Wei Xian if she knew the reason why Mrs. Tai punished Aunt Zhang's grandmother.

"This, my daughter has heard some news......" Wei Xian pondered for a moment, and then considered: "My daughter doesn't know if it's true or not, she said that Aunt Zhang was punished and had something to do with the third sister......
