Marrying Uncle vs 37
Yunzhu: "You're so unhappy, why did I look at you twice and you came over?" ”
If Cao Xun really wants to quarrel with her, he can come up with countless excuses until he cries at her.
What good is the little lady who is angry and crying?
It's better to say something nice, and listen to her cry in the tent later.
"After all, when you are young, you are favored by the most beautiful girl in the capital, of course, you must cherish the opportunity."
Yun Zhu glanced at him with disgust, but the corners of his lips were raised high.
Chapter 29: "Just to Hug You."
The day before the Midyear Festival, Yunzhu went back to her parents' home.
Li Yao was on an errand in front of the emperor, Li Xian was studying in the school, and only Meng came out to pick up his daughter.
Yunzhu: "Daddy is out again?" ”
Meng Shi: "No, if he hadn't dressed up every day, I would have suspected that he had raised people outside." ”
Yunzhu smiled: "If my father has that kind of thought, he still has to wait until this age, so don't make fun of him." ”
Meng Shi snorted and sighed: "I don't know what he's tossing outside, rather than suffering in vain, I'd rather him be idle at home." ”
Yunzhu: "If you don't see my father, you think, he really dangles in front of you every day, and you should annoy him again." ”
Meng Shi nodded her daughter's head: "You have only been married for a few days, and you dare to arrange me." ”
The mother and daughter quarreled for a while, and Meng Shi asked the maids to stand down, gloating: "I heard that there is already some rumor outside, saying that the Marquis of Changxing Mansion rejected the proposal of Uncle Xiaoguo." ”
Yun Zhu really didn't hear about it: "The Pan family mentioned it to Mrs. Changxing Hou in private, although the Xie family refused, but it was not publicized everywhere, and the Pan family had no face to say, how did it spread out?" ”
She and Cao Xun are not that kind of person.
Meng said with a smile: "Since you became Cao Shao's 'sister', the Pan family has been enthusiastic about the Xie family, and often praises Wen Ying in front of people, and anyone with a discerning eye can see what she means, but Fushan came back and had a stepson who has not yet married, so the Pan family did not immediately go to the Xie family to propose marriage." A few days ago, she asked Wenying's mother to go to Shangxiang, how many pairs of eyes saw along the way, can you guess? ”
Yunzhu was angry enough when she laughed in front of Pan, and now she doesn't care too much about how embarrassed Pan is: "No matter how she is, it has nothing to do with us, my mother will not mention her in the future, we will only talk about happy things." ”
Meng's heart moved, and he looked at his daughter's lower abdomen: "Got it?" ”
Yunzhu: "...... It's only been a month, so how fast? ”
Meng Shi also felt unlikely, but this topic reminded her of one thing that she was more concerned about: "Do Fushan treat you like a guest, or like glue?" ”
She was afraid that Cao Xun would marry her daughter really just for the sake of faith.
After Meng Shi finished asking, he saw his daughter's little chin raised, and said proudly: "Naturally, it is like glue, sometimes I am annoyed by him, and I can't wait for him to go to the front yard to sleep by himself." ”
Meng Shi smiled with satisfaction, sure enough, the heroes were sad about this beauty, thinking that when she first married her husband, she also wanted to stick to that handsome man every day, sometimes when she woke up in the middle of the night, she threw the etiquette, righteousness and shame of the scholarly family out of the clouds, and took the initiative to stick it on her husband, telling him to think about it if he didn't want to.
"Those who have just married are like this, don't really push Fushan out."
Yunzhu talked enough with her mother, so she went to her own school to watch her younger brother study, fourteen-year-old Li Xian, who had two civil and martial arts classes in the morning and afternoon, was busier than Yunzhu's housekeeper to read the accounts.
Yunzhu didn't go in, but stood outside the window, watching his brother and Mr. answer each other like a stream.
How his younger brother thinks about it, Yun Zhu can't help but think of the prince in the palace who has no beads, coupled with her grudge with the Pan family, Yun Zhu's dissatisfaction with the prince is even more layered. It's a pity that the prince is the prince after all, maybe even Cao Xun, the uncle in the next room, doesn't dare to discipline the prince openly, and Yunzhu won't do anything recklessly, so he scolded in his heart.
Eating at home at noon, Yunzhu wanted to wait for his father, but after a while, he found that his father had not returned, coupled with his mother's urging, Yunzhu had to go back to the Dingguo Mansion.
She had just changed her clothes when Cao Xun came back.
Yun Zhuqi said: "Why is it so early today? ”
Cao Xun: "Tomorrow in the middle of the Yuan, the emperor will allow the courtiers to return home early to prepare for the worship of their ancestors." ”
Yunzhu said sincerely: "The emperor is really considerate. ”
Seeing Cao Xun sitting on the couch in the second room, Yunzhu also walked over, and when she took off her embroidered shoes, Cao Xun was already comfortably lying on a Suzhou embroidered cushion with a pink bottom.
Yun Zhu said in disgust: "You are so heavy, you have flattened my cushions." ”
Cao Xun: "I'm pillowing my head, not sitting up, how much can it weigh?" ”
Yunzhu moved to his side, and grabbed the corner of the cushion with both hands: "No matter, you lie down on the side, or ask someone to bring one for you from the front yard." ”
It's all her love.
Forsythia and pomegranate retreated playfully.
Cao Xun directly grabbed the little lady's arm and pulled the whole person to himself: "In this way, it can be regarded as a pillow together." ”
The sun was still shining outside the window, Yun Zhu refused to mess around with him, his hands were on both sides of him and wanted to move away, seeing that he was going to succeed, Cao Xun pressed her back with both hands, and Yun Zhu fell back to his broad chest. One wants to escape and the other is not allowed, pulling and pulling, Cao Xun wants to lift Yunzhu's skirt.
Yun Zhu didn't dare to move anymore, and glared at him: "You know that you are worried about this every day." ”
Cao Xun: "If you lie still on your stomach, I won't be caught up in the fire by you." ”
Yunzhu bit her lip: "Then I won't move now, don't mess around?" ”
Cao Xun arranged her skirt cooperatively.
Yun Zhu lay down, his head resting on his broad, strong chest, and through the two layers of silk clothing, he heard his powerful heartbeat.
Cao Xun touched her head: "Just went out?" ”
Yunzhu: "Well, I went back to our house, but unfortunately I didn't see my father." ”
Cao Xun: "What has my father-in-law been busy with lately?" ”
Yunzhu shook her head, not wanting him to know that her father was trying to find an opportunity to become an official errand.
Cao Xun looked at her lightly fanned eyelashes and said, "If my father-in-law wants to take a shortcut, it will work for him to ask the emperor to intercede for him, so I didn't make my own decisions." ”
Yunzhu glared at him: "I know, I married you just to shut up those who laughed at me, but I didn't want you to help my mother's family anything." ”
The Li family doesn't need it, his father can't do it, and his brother and brother have not yet fallen to the pitiful point of needing Cao Xun's support.
Cao Xun: "When I should help, I still have to help, who made me the son-in-law of the Li family." ”
Yun Zhu smiled, supported his shoulders with both hands, and looked down at him: "Seriously, do you look down on my father in your heart?" ”
Cao Xun's eyes were open: "No." The poor people may have been forced to go to the battlefield by military service, and the father-in-law was able to give up the wealth of the capital and take the initiative to ask for help, which shows his enthusiasm to serve the country. ”
Yunzhu snorted: "You'd better really think so, so that I can find out that you just said nice things to coax me, I ......"
Cao Xun suddenly raised his head and kissed the sweet mouth.
.
Early in the morning of the Midyear Festival, Cao Xun first took his family to the ancestral hall to worship his ancestors.
This is also the first time that Yunzhu has seen him after Cao Shao's agreement to agree to the proposal was rejected again.
Uncle Xiaoguo seemed to be a little thinner, wearing a blue brocade robe, still with a face like a crown of jade, as if he had been waiting for a long time, Yun Zhu just looked at it, and bumped into his eyes full of love.
Last time on the bridge, Cao Shao looked at her with this kind of look, Yun Zhu was a little emotional, this time, she already knew that those deep feelings were fake, or duckweed on the water, although they existed, they were easy to drift away with the wind, Yun Zhu's heart was like water, and there were no superfluous thoughts at all.
She followed Cao Xun and kowtowed to the ancestors of the Cao family as the daughter-in-law of the Cao family.
After the worship was over, the four of them went to breakfast together.
Pan Shi lost a big face in front of Yunzhu, and when there were no outsiders, she didn't even bother to pretend to be a loving mother, she kept a straight face and only talked to Cao Shao.
Cao Shao looked at his brother in embarrassment.
Cao Xun said with his eyes that it was okay.
After the meal, when the brothers were alone, Cao Shao apologized to his brother: "Because my marriage was frustrated, my mother was unhappy, and I asked my eldest brother and sister-in-law to take care of me more." ”
Cao Xun: "Human nature, how can we worry about our mother, the second brother doesn't have to worry too much, but you, what are your plans next?" ”
Cao Shao looked back at the direction of the ancestral hall, swept away the previous gloom, and his eyebrows were cheerful: "I want to follow the example of the eldest brother, start a business first and then start a family." When I prove again that I have corrected my previous shortcomings, and I am also a son of the Cao family, there will naturally be a lady who is willing to marry me. Yunzhu won't look down on him either.
Cao Xun said with relief: "Well said, this is like our Cao family's children, the eldest brother is waiting for you to rise to the top." ”
Cao Shao smiled humbly: "I made an appointment with a few classmates to go to the temple today to see the monks doing things, if the eldest brother didn't send it, I would leave first?" ”
Cao Xun bowed his head, and when the young man was far away, he went back to the back house to find Yunzhu.
Yunzhu was in the study, and on the desk was the lamp paper she had ordered someone to bring back from the temple in advance.
She asked Cao Xun, "Do you know how to make river lanterns?" ”
Cao Xun nodded.
Yun Zhu was surprised: "You still like to do this?" ”
Cao Xun didn't explain anything, walked up to her and accompanied her to cut the light paper.
The river lantern has to be written on the sacrificial text, the two sit face to face on the east and west sides of the table, Yunzhu wants to sacrifice her grandfather and grandmother, after writing, she raised her head and found that Cao Xun has not stopped, Yunzhu gently put down her river lantern and went around to Cao Xun's side.
The river lantern of the nine-petal lotus, Cao Xun actually planned to inscribe words on each lotus petal.
Yunzhu saw "mother" in the string of titles at the beginning of the sacrificial text.
Yunzhu suddenly remembered Cao Xun's life experience, and now the high-ranking and powerful uncle of the country actually lost his mother when he was only half a year old, and was almost raised by his father.
Yunzhu has been pampered by her parents since she was a child, she can't imagine how she would grow up without her mother, and Cao Xun can't even remember what his mother looked like.
I made a river lantern, and of course I had to put it at night.
For Yunzhu, the fun of releasing river lanterns is more than the meaning of memorials, she likes to watch the river lanterns light up the night and go down the river, and she also likes the silly appearance of Cao Shao and other young men who used to surround her and stare at her stupidly. In other words, any festival where boys and girls can gather and play, Yunzhu likes it, she is the bright moon that loves to be the stars holding the moon.
Tonight, the young men are gone, and they are replaced by Cao Xun, her rightful husband.
Cao Xun deliberately chose a quiet section of the river, and a rather old thick tree cast mottled shadows, almost blocking the bluestone port.
Cao Xun helped Yunzhu down the stairs.
Coming to the bottom stone steps, Yun Zhu slowly squatted down, looked at the river lantern in his hand, and then looked at Cao Xun, and quipped: "The river lantern that has been put on for so many years, tonight is the most deserted." ”
Cao Xun looked at her and said, "Yes, it's the most lively one for me." ”
Yun Zhu was stunned for a moment before he reacted, he should have been put alone before, but tonight there was one more her.
"Forget it, it's cheap for you."
Cao Xun smiled, took two breaths behind her, put the river lantern in his hand on the water, and followed her floating wave away.
Gradually, other river lanterns floated upstream, and more and more.
