Chapter Seventy-Nine: Madame, It's Late at Night
Cai Yan was picked up by Cao Cao from Si Li a few years ago.
At the beginning, she had just married Wei Zhongdao, but soon after, the latter died of tuberculosis, and even she was dismissed by the Wei family.
Originally, Cai Yan wanted to spend this life with his father Cai Yong like this.
Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, after Dong Zhuo's death, Wang Yun couldn't get used to his father and put him to death.
Since then, Cai Yan has been living in a relative's house.
It's just that such a day is a little difficult after all, and after the turmoil in Chang'an, even her relatives are not having a good time.
Later, Cao Cao did not know where to receive the news.
Someone took the initiative to take her to Yanzhou.
Knowing that it was Cao Cao who came to the door, Cai Yan did not choose to refuse.
The Cai family and the Cao family are also more or less world friends, and she even calls Cao Cao her brother.
In order not to drag down his relatives, Cai Yan followed him to Yanzhou.
I thought that Yanzhou was probably the same situation as Chang'an, but I didn't think that after coming to Yanzhou, Cai Yan knew that Dahan still had a place in Shengping.
And immediately after, she knew that now Yanzhou can have such a scene, except for Cao Cao, the person who is inseparable is Xi Yu.
This is also the first time that the name Xi Yu has been heard by Cai Yan.
Later, after learning about the other party's series of policies, Cai Yan somewhat admired Xi Yu.
In this era, there are too few people who can still do things for the people wholeheartedly.
Today, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, Cai Yan, who lives in Cao's house, naturally accompanies Mrs. Ding and others.
Until, she heard that Xi Yu's wife also came over.
Cai Yan, who was holding the Jiao Weiqin, raised his head slightly when he heard the voice.
What caught my eye was a woman dressed in plain palace clothes, with a woman's hair in a bun on her head, and her eyebrows seemed to contain starlight.
When Cai Yan looked at Ganmei, Ganmei was also looking at the woman in front of her.
The woman wears a pale green skirt and also holds the woman's hair in a bun on top of her head.
"I've seen my sister!"
Gan Mei took the initiative to say hello to the other party, which made Cai Yan couldn't help but be a little flustered.
"I, I'm not ......"
"My sister misunderstood, Zhao Ji is living in my house!"
Mrs. Bian on the side saw that Gan Mei seemed to have misunderstood, and hurriedly stepped forward to explain Cai Yan's origin.
After hearing the reason, Ganmei's eyes couldn't help but feel some pity.
I never thought that such a bright woman in front of me would have such a tortuous experience.
Cai Yan had already seen his own experience, and after explaining, he took the initiative to play the piano for everyone.
……
The sun is setting in the west.
Xi Yu accompanied the old lady to stay at Cao's house for a whole day, until Xun Yu and Xi Zhicai had already taken the initiative to leave, and the old lady still pulled Xi Yu to prevent the other party from leaving.
In desperation, Xi Yu could only stay at Cao's house for dinner, which was regarded as making up for the fact that he did not go to the banquet last night.
is obviously a family banquet for the Cao family, but the old lady values Xi Yu more than anyone else.
"Fengyi, you won't be worried about your wife, will you?"
Cao Cao looked at Xi Yu's frowning appearance, and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Regarding the fact that Xi Yu attaches importance to his wife, Cao Cao is very concerned.
When he learned that Xi Yu had never been married, he always took it to heart.
Later, Cai Yan was picked up by Cao Cao, partly because of the drama.
But later, Xi Yu valued Ganmei, and Cao Cao put Cai Yan on hold for the time being.
Seeing Xi Yu frowning from time to time, Cao Cao thought that the other party was worried about his wife.
On the side, Cao Song, who heard this, also raised his head.
"Fengyi is a family-friendly character!"
Cao Song praised again, and when Xi Yu heard the old lady's praise, people were already somewhat adapted.
In this kung fu, everyone was full of wine and food, and Cao Cao patted the shoulder of the filmmaker.
"Fengyi, come with me to the backyard to pick up your wife!"
"By the way, I've already arranged a guest room for you tonight, and I'll stay at my house at night!"
Hearing that Cao Cao had arranged everything, Xi Yu didn't refuse.
After saying hello to the old lady, Xi Yu followed Cao Cao all the way to the direction of the back house.
After arriving at the back house, Xi Yu raised his eyes and saw that the backyard of the Cao family was brightly lit.
As soon as I entered the courtyard, I heard the sound of warblers and swallows coming from the gazebo under the lights not far away.
Hearing this voice, Cao Cao had a smile on his face, and his whole eyes narrowed.
"Fengyi, have you ever thought about marrying a few more?"
Cao Cao raised his eyes at Xi Yu, saying that he had married several concubines so far, and his posture was a little proud.
Xi Yu pursed his lips and did not respond.
The movement of the two entering the backyard was quickly noticed by Mrs. Ding and the others.
"I've seen all the ladies!"
When he got closer, Xi Yu took the initiative to salute Mrs. Ding and others, and the latter and others also returned the salute: "I've seen Mr. Xi!" ”
"Ayu, has Fengyi's room been settled?"
Cao Cao asked Madam Bian, who nodded.
Xi Yu raised his eyes and glanced at Ganmei.
At this time, Cao Cao's wives were sitting around the stone table in the pavilion with Gan Mei and playing cards.
Noticing Xi Yu's gaze, Gan Mei's face couldn't help but turn a little red, and she was about to get up, when Mrs. Bian on the side pressed her down.
"The game invented by Fengyi is really good, we are asking our sister to teach us, Fengyi won't mind, right?"
Mrs. Bian smiled and explained to Xi Yu.
Hearing this, Xi Yu also smiled: "Mrs. Sister-in-law said that she was laughing!" ”
Gan Mei can get along well with Cao Cao's wives, which is not bad, and Xi Yu will naturally not be surprised.
At this time, Cao Cao saw several ladies playing around the cards, and seemed to be interested.
Probably because I didn't have a good time playing with the old lady before, I took the initiative to pull the other two concubines to play.
Xi Yu stood a little weird on the side.
With such a group of people, he can't directly integrate into it like Cao Cao.
After all, except for his own wife, the rest of them are Cao Cao's concubines.
Seeing the smile on Ganmei's face, Xi Yu pushed it out.
He looked up at the sky, and the moon had risen at some point.
"Is it Mr. Drama?"
When Xi Yu was looking up at the moonlight alone, he didn't know when a soft sound sounded on the side.
Hearing the voice, Xi Yu, who came back to his senses, subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound.
Not far from here, a girl holding a guqin was staring at him with her eyes raised.
"Madame?"
Xi Yu mistakenly thought that the other party was Cao Cao's concubine and was about to greet him, and the woman in front of him hurriedly waved her hand.
"I'm not the concubine of Brother Mengde, the little girl Cai Yan, I've seen Mr. Xi!"
Cai Yan?
Cai Wenji?
No, at this time, it should be Cai Zhaoji!
This is a famous talented woman in history, and it is also a famous walking library in the late Han Dynasty.
A character like Cai Zhaoji, if it is placed in martial arts, it is a proper template of Wang Yuyan.
Even if the other party has been in exile for decades, after returning, he can still sort out countless famous classics with his memory.
But!
She, why is she in Cao Cao's mansion?
According to this time, the other party should still be in Chang'an, and after the turmoil, the other party will be taken away by the Hu people.
Xi Yu thought of a lot in his thoughts.
Although Cai Yan was a little surprised to appear in Cao's mansion, he didn't think much about it after him.
Cai Yan can appear here now, but he also avoids the tragic life in the future.
For such a situation, Xi Yu is still for the other party.
"I've seen Miss Akihime!"
Xi Yu saluted the other party again, and then couldn't help but praise: "The girl is a famous man, and Xi Mou is lucky to see the girl today!" ”
"Ahh
Cai Yan didn't expect Xi Yu to hear about his reputation, and he was obviously a little surprised after hearing the other party's praise.
Xi Yu didn't pay much attention to it, and turned his head to look at the sky again.
The moon in front of him made him subconsciously think of a few lines of poetry, and he couldn't help but read them out casually.
"The hook is small, and the fan chases the Han machine group."
"The thin shadow will be round, and you can see it in a few places in the world."
"Good poetry!"
Cai Yan heard the poems read out casually by Xi Yu, and subconsciously read them in his mouth, and then couldn't help but praise them.
"The gentleman's literary talent is better than that of the little woman!"
can make poems casually in combination with the situation, and even without a moment of effort, Cai Yan feels that he is still a little short of effort.
Although the poems made by Xi Yu are not in the format of Yuefu, they are also extremely rhythmic, and when read carefully, combined with the scene at this time, it is quite beautiful.
Listening to Cai Yan's extremely serious praise, Xi Yu couldn't help but feel a little complacent.
Just now, he didn't deliberately show off in front of Cai Yan, but looked at the moon in front of him, and this poem subconsciously came out of his mind.
It was a little unintentional, but he didn't expect to be praised by a famous and talented woman, which made him naturally a little happy.
"I heard about Yanzhou's policy, many of them are Mr. Mengde's brother?"
Looking at Xi Yu standing not far away, Cai Yan couldn't help but ask curiously.
Hearing this, Xi Yu raised his eyebrows.
"Don't worry, most of the strategies are the result of joint discussions by a group of strategists in Yanzhou!"
The drama was so good that he didn't directly take all the credit on himself.
Although some policies were indeed proposed by him, officials from all over Yanzhou contributed to things like improvement.
"Mr. can do things for the people like this, but Zhao Ji has some admiration!"
Cai Yan laughed.
"It's just doing what you can!"
"The world has been in turmoil for too long, not only me, but the people of the whole world probably want to restore the world to a peaceful scene!"
Xi Yu sighed casually.
The troubled times of the Three Kingdoms are an era of heroes, and perhaps for those generals and strategists, this is the best era.
But for many more people, troubled times mean it is harder to survive.
If the Han Shengping is the case, what if a woman like Cai Yan retires from the Wei family?
This era is still extremely tolerant of women, not to mention that with Cai Yong's identity, there are no longer a few people who want to get married.
"Yes, no one wants to see troubled times!"
Cai Yan's tone was leisurely, as if he thought of his father's ending because of this.
"Cai Gong's matter, please mourn!"
Cai Yong died, and the more reason was that the other party missed the friendship with Dong Zhuo.
And when it comes to Cai Yong, in fact, if it is placed in later generations, it should be a standard literati to be precise.
Cai Yong is not suitable for politics, just because Dong Zhuo recalled him to Luoyang, Cai Yong remembered Dong Zhuo's kindness.
So much so that in the end, because of this kindness, he killed himself.
Outside the gazebo, the two chatted with each other.
What Xi Yu didn't notice was that in front of the stone table in the pavilion, several pairs of eyes had already looked over.
Gan Mei naturally noticed the situation here, and seeing that her Lang Jun and the other women were talking and laughing, she didn't have any jealousy.
Mrs. Ding and Mrs. Bian on the side looked impermanent, and both of them looked at Ganmei.
Noticing that there was no jealousy in the other party's eyes, they all couldn't help but nod.
On the other side, the corners of Cao Cao's mouth couldn't help but turn up.
His eyes also looked at Xi Yu, who was chatting happily with Cai Yan.
Unexpectedly, there is a so-called unexpected joy today.
Since bringing Cai Yan back, Cao Cao is worried about how to settle Cai Yan, and he can't accept the other party himself.
In the final analysis, he doesn't like Cai Yan's type, he likes more mature ones.
Although Cai Yan has married Wei Zhongdao and can be regarded as a wife, Wei Zhongdao is a waste after all, and before he officially marries in the church, he is gone.
Because of this, Cao Cao had previously intended to bring Cai Yan back, and he originally planned to match Cai Yan and Xi Yu.
Noticing that Gan Mei's eyes kept looking in the direction of Xi Yu, Cao Cao raised his eyebrows.
"Alright, it's almost time!"
He glanced at his wife and others, and Mrs. Ding and the others naturally understood that they were not pulling Gan Mei to continue to play with the landlord.
And the quiet movement in the pavilion, Xi Yu naturally noticed it.
He didn't think much about it, said to Cai Yan, and then took the initiative to walk over to Gan Mei and the others.
"Fengyi, let Ayu take your husband and wife to the guest room!"
Cao Cao said casually to Xi Yu, and when he heard this, Xi Yu nodded.
He took Gan Mei and followed Mrs. Bian to the Cao family's guest room soon.
"Madame, is it okay today?"
After lying on the collapse and holding Ganmei in his arms, Xi Yu asked casually.
He was still a little worried that Gan Mei would barely blend in with Cao Cao's family for his sake.
Hearing Xi Yu's concerned question, Gan Mei shook her head decisively.
"Everything is fine, Sister Ding, they are all very good to me!"
After lying on Xi Yu's chest, Gan Mei couldn't help but ask Xi Yu after a while.
"Ah Lang had a good conversation with Sister Zhao Ji today?"
"Huh?"
Hearing Gan Mei suddenly say Cai Yan, Xi Yu's eyebrows couldn't help but pick.
Did Gan Mei notice it before?
He thought that the Nizi in his arms was a little jealous, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but chuckle.
"Cai Yan is a famous talented woman in the Han Dynasty, I have heard her reputation before, and I heard that her father's entire book house has been memorized in my mind, which is quite admirable!"
"Is it so powerful?"
Gan Mei couldn't help but be a little surprised, and then seemed to have an idea in her heart.
Xi Yu didn't think much about it, but immediately followed Ganmei's next words, which suddenly made his head a little bigger.
"Does Ah Lang like Sister Zhaohime, if you like it, I'll ask for you tomorrow!"
After saying this, the person in his arms laughed along.
However, when he heard this, his whole body stiffened.
What's the situation?
Is this Nizi really jealous, or does she really think so?
For Cai Yan, Xi Yu actually didn't have too many thoughts in his heart.
In this era, the other party can be remembered by him, more because Cai Yan's life after him is really a little miserable.
And the other party is a talented woman who has been passed down through the ages, such a woman has been sympathized with by countless people in later generations.
Xi Yu had also thought that if he had the opportunity, he would try to change the fate of the other party.
Now, the other party is in the Cao Mansion, and the original tragic fate of life has naturally changed.
However, Xi Yu never thought about marrying each other or anything like that.
If you want to say that the more famous beauties of the Three Kingdoms, in addition to Ganmei.
There are also Jiangdong Erqiao, Luoshui Goddess Zhen Mi, bowed waist Ji Sun Shangxiang, and so on......
Cai Yan is among them, and sometimes he can't be ranked at all.
Of course, if a woman like Cai Zhaoji asks him to refuse, in fact, it will be difficult for anyone to refuse!
Talented girl!
The temperament that surrounds the body can add a lot of points to the appearance.
Xi Yu stretched out his hand and helped Gan Mei in his arms up.
"Madame wasn't joking with me?"
Xi Yu stared, the face of the person in front of him was a little blushing, and his bright eyes blinked slightly.
"Ah Lang really likes Sister Zhaohime!"
As if she had seen through Xi Yu's thoughts at a glance, Gan Mei smiled lightly at the corner of her mouth.
She didn't have the slightest jealousy, perhaps because most of the women of this era were like this.
What's more, after marrying Xi Yu, Gan Mei already felt that she was too lucky, but in the few months since she was married, her stomach did not move at all.
This made Gan Mei somewhat worried.
Today, when I saw Xi Yu and Cai Yan talking and laughing, Gan Mei couldn't help but have thoughts in her heart.
At this point, Xi Yu didn't know what Gan Mei thought at all.
Seeing that the expression of the person in front of him did not seem to be fake, the corners of Xi Yu's mouth couldn't help but twitch.
I have to say that the women of this era are too considerate.
In the next life, some people's husbands glance at other women, and when they go back, they will be jumping.
Where is there now, Mrs. took the initiative to help marry a new wife for herself.
After a trace of warmth rose in his heart, Xi Yu hugged the person in his arms tighter.
"Madam, it's late at night, listening to the movement outside, it seems to be raining!"
Nothing to say all night! In the pond outside the window, the carp spits beads, and the rain hits the plantains!
The first rain of the year, from the middle of the night, quietly came, and the sound of the rain mixed with the whispering sound of nothingness passed away.
The next day, after the daylight, the rain stopped early last night.
The air after the rain became a little more comfortable, and after Xi Yu got up, he took the initiative to say goodbye to Gan Mei and Cao Fu and the others.
As for what Gan Mei said about taking the initiative to help him ask about Zhao Ji, Xi Yu didn't pay attention to it at all.
