Chapter 1114 Xiyingmen

Beijing, Cao Mansion, Lanyuan, Shangfang.

Li was wearing homely clothes, sitting by the kang, holding a gift list in his hand, and said in surprise: "So many?"

On two small stools beside the kang, Niu Niu and Tianhui were sitting.

Niu Niu is wearing a silver-red flag suit, with slender eyebrows, smiles at the corners of her mouth, a bit sensual and playful, and she looks like a big girl; Tianhui is a little smaller in size, wearing a lotus-colored flag suit, and a lilac colored one, which is much quieter than children of the same age.

The gift list was compiled by Niu Niu and Tianhui. Seeing Li ask, Niu Niu smiled and replied, "No, the gifts are 50% more than in previous years. Not to mention the new gifts, they say that there are old ones in the mansion. Except for a few close relatives and in previous years, the birthday gifts of other families are much more expensive."

After hearing this, Li left the gift list and said, "The relationship between people is the most complicated. You can't be neglected at all, otherwise it will easily make people laugh. Collect a copy of these new gift lists to your brother and sister-in-law to send them to you, and ask them if they have any instructions."

Niu Niu stood up and responded. Li looked at her lovingly and said to herself: "Shuping is so capable, I don't know if that kid is lucky?"

It has been more than half a month since Cao Yong and his wife left Beijing. Niu Niu brought Tianhui's housework to the house. She was well organized and did not make any mistakes. In addition to the strict rules in the house, it is also related to Niu Niu's cleverness and ability.

In the past two years, everyone has mentioned the marriage between Niu Niu and it is not once or twice.

Because Niu Niu is a son and his wife takes care of her elders, Li Shi couldn't say anything. She was originally optimistic about Wen Jie of the Wei family, but later she was left alone.

Niu Niu was stared at her and felt unsure. She touched her face and said, "Old lady, is there something wrong with the niece?"

Li smiled and shook his head, saying, "No, I think of your second sister-in-law. After suffering hard for all these years, there was finally some movement. I hope she will give birth to a fat boy this time."

Jinghui is gentle and friendly, and Niu Niu and Tianhui are very close to her.

After hearing this, Niu Niu and Tianhui were both eager to try.

"Grandmother, granddaughter and aunt have not yet congratulated their second aunt. It just so happened that I haven't seen my fourth aunt for a while. Let's let us go to the East Mansion tomorrow." Tianhui said.

Li thought for a while and said, "Well, the 'Send to Guanyin' I asked someone to send me this time. Let's go and have a look tomorrow morning."

He had nothing to say all night, and after breakfast the next day, Li sent someone to report to the East Mansion, and then took Niu Niu and Tianhui to the East Mansion.

Because the two houses were separated by horn doors, Li was impatient to make a carriage, so he took everyone to walk there.

The snow had been swept away on the bluestone road. Even so, Niu Niu and Tianhui were still worried that the road would slip and fell to Li, one left and one right, carefully supporting him.

It made Li laugh and said, "Look at your aunt and nephew, you are so careful."

While talking and joking, the group had already arrived at the East Mansion.

Jinghui and Chunhua, Su Xin's sister-in-law, followed by a few maids and mothers, and stood at the corner gate to greet each other. When they saw Li, they bowed their knees and greeted each other.

Seeing this, Li hurriedly stepped forward, supported Jinghui and said, "You are heavy, don't do this." Then he said, and said to Chunhua and Su Xin again, "Didn't I say, don't disturb your sister-in-law?"

Chunhua and Su Xin were not easy to argue, so Jinghui helped Li's arm and said, "I know my aunt loves me, but these few steps, why are you tired of your niece again?"

In the early years, after Jinghui gave birth to her second daughter, she had some irregular menstruation.

In the past two years of Cao Song's return, it is better than in the past, and there are times when menstruation is delayed. Last year, due to the delay of menstruation, Cao Song thought she was pregnant, and everyone was so happy in vain.

This time I got pregnant, Jinghui was a little unsure. It was not until March that she had a strong morning sickness reaction that she invited the imperial physician to come. Fortunately, she really did this time.

Li's eyes moved to her face from her belly, shook her head and said, "No matter what, it's better to be careful."

Jinghui responded with a smile, and met Niu Niu and Tianhui again. Everyone surrounded Li and went to Zhaojia's room.

The eldest daughter-in-law was pregnant, and Zhao Jia was also happy. Looking at the "Send a Son" invited by Li, she thanked her happily.

Li was afraid that Jinghui would be affected, and worried that Zhao Jia would speak uncontrollably. He said something that hurt Su Xin, so he sent them to speak by themselves.

"I just hope to have a fat grandson, so I can close my eyes." Zhao Jia said.

Li gave her a blank look and said, "Don't mention one, Brother Song and the others are still young, and they are still in the room. I'm afraid that you will be a grandmother and you will be quarrel!"

"Borrow your good words from my sister-in-law." Zhao Jia said with a smile.

The sister-in-law and sister-in-law were talking when they heard footsteps coming from outside, and then Cao Song's voice: "Is the big old lady here?"

Then, someone replied in a low voice.

At this moment, Cao Song had already picked up the curtain, served in the guards, and was covered in cold air, so he invited Li and Zhao Jia.

Seeing this, Zhao Jia was shocked and said, "Didn't you go back at noon? Why did you get home so early?"

Cao Song was full of joy, and couldn't stop talking, and smiled: "Mother, the emperor summoned his son just now... and ordered his son to be the general of Jiangning!"

"General, General Jiangning?" Zhao Jia's eyes widened: "That's a second-ranked official, isn't this a lie?"

Cao Song smiled and said, "Where is there any fake? The guard office has already handed over the office, so I just want to go to the Ministry of Personnel to go through the procedures. When I come back, I will get the money, so I have to handle one or two parties."

Zhao Jia was already crying happily, and pulled Li's sleeve and said, "I can't blame myself for dreaming about Jiangning these two months old. This is our master who gave me a dream..."

"This is a good thing, double happiness comes." Li was also happy for Cao Song.

Although the guards are idle, they can't work for the rest of their lives. Cao Xiang, the East Mansion, has a bright future, and Cao Song, the elder brother, can't stay behind his younger brother.

Cao Song was still anxious to go to the guard office, so he went to Dongqianyuan, greeted his wife, but went to the front yard account to pay some money and hurried out.

By the time of supper, the two of Cao Xiang brothers came back and gave another congratulations to their brother for their promotion.

Only Jinghui's heart can't be said to be joy or sorrow.

From the capital to Jiangning, it is thousands of miles away, and now there is no waterway. She is pregnant and cannot go with her for a while.

In the two concubines, Yulong's appearance was half-destroyed, and Zilan has never been pleased with her husband.

In a prosperous place in Jiangnan, my husband is in his prime. This time he goes on, he is in a high position and power. There must be someone to serve him. I don’t want to do so, so I can only arrange the people around me virtuously for my husband...

Compared with the Cao family's double happiness, the Sun family is covered with clouds.

Sun Wencheng's face was ashen and glared at An and said, "What the hell is going on? What did you say yesterday when you went to the Dong family? Why did the granddaughter of his relatives be replaced by a illegitimate child and even brought up the Sun Ban?"

Thinking of Dong Dianbang's lukewarm words during the day, Sun Wencheng felt his temples twitching.

An's eyes flashed, and he didn't dare to look at her husband, and muttered, "It's just that the elders and young people are orderly. Where can I not marry a wife, and my nephew says it's just that the uncle is a marriage?"

Sun Wencheng suppressed his anger and asked, "Just because of this, you are obviously the prime minister's wife, so do you think it is the prime minister's wife?"

An's eyes were red and said, "Ban's eyes are twenty years old and there are not a wife yet. There are many sons in the master. I don't feel sorry for him. Can't I feel sorry for him as a mother?"

Sun Wencheng felt that his eyes were getting dark. He was the Sun family who married the Dong family.

It was because of the grandson's success that made the Dong family look at each other. Unexpectedly, it was about to make up for such a ridiculous thing.

My grandson is a new Jinshi and has entered the Hanlin Academy. He is also worthy of being a member of the Dong family's legitimate granddaughter. His grandson is not good at studying and does not pass the exam in the inner court. He is idle at home, so how can he catch the eyes of the Dong family?

Dong Dianbang did not turn against him, but just replaced his legitimate granddaughter with a illegitimate granddaughter, which was already decent for the Sun family.

Then An heard from An, saying, "Ban'er is the legitimate son, so he can't marry a concubine's wife! If the Dong family is not happy, they will not be happy. If they find something for Ban'er, they will be..." Before he finished speaking, Sun Wencheng yelled.

Looking at the ignorant and foolish woman in front of her, Sun Wencheng was left with only sorrow and didn't even have the strength to scold her.

What else can happen now?

If you change your words, let alone marrying the Dong family, you may have to make enemies with the Dong family.

Sun Wencheng stood up, and without looking at his wife, turned around and went out.

An wanted to call someone, but he was not brave enough. Until her husband went out, he called the housekeeper He and said, "The Dong family is too bullying. If they don't want to promise their granddaughter to Baner, they will just say that, and they will still insist on giving their granddaughter to Baner..."

When Mrs. He listened, she didn't dare to say anything, and felt very distressed.

The wife is too confused. If it weren't for the friendship between Dong and Sun's families for several lifetimes, they would probably have turned against each other.

She knew that her wife didn't like her big grandmother recently, but she didn't expect her wife to do such a thing, wanting to steal her granddaughter-in-law as her daughter-in-law.

The big grandma's temper is usually gentle, but that is when it is not involved in children; whenever it involves a pair of children, it is the tigress that protects the cub.

Just like a few days ago, the old man injured the eldest son.

The eldest young master originally wanted to hide it, but there was no movement in the mansion for several days. Later, he fainted outside and was sent back by the fourth uncle of the Cao family.

The big grandmother asked in detail and knew that it was the old man who took the initiative and came out the documents of the other births and asked him to take his children out to the master.

The master feels sorry for his grandson and granddaughter, how can he be willing to obey?

In the end, the old man was sent to a village outside the city, and he accompanied two naughty concubines in the big house. Looking at it, he wanted to let the old man live outside forever.

It was precisely because of this that the wife took her anger on her grandson that she interfered when she was talking about her marriage.

But she just wanted to be happy and forgot that because the uncle and the fifth master were not competing, the master was also scolding her...

Sun Wencheng stood in the yard with his hands behind his back for a long time, and then walked to Changsun's yard.

The lights in the study were on. When Sun Wencheng went in, he saw Sun Li flipping through the notes with his left hand, and he was in a state of sensation.

"Grandfather..." Sun Li raised his head when he heard the movement, and saw his grandfather coming, and hurriedly stood up.

Due to an arm fracture, Cao Xiang asked him for a month's leave at the Hanlin Academy. He was afraid of losing his homework, so he asked his uncle to help and borrowed a note from the bachelors of the Hanlin Academy in previous years.
