Cao Yin nodded and smiled, "Your mother is talking to your wife. Tianyou is good, he is a good child."

Cao Yong remembered something and asked, "Father, does Tianyou have a name?"

Cao Yin was stunned when he heard this, then waved his hand and said, "Don't get up in a hurry, just make a reservation before entering school."

When Cao Yong heard this, he couldn't help but feel suspicious. He remembered that he had a name when he was five or six years old when he was a child. Could it be that his father was weak in naming? It wasn't he not in a hurry, but he couldn't remember what was appropriate? Following the genealogy, he used the word "Yan" with Cao Yanxiao and Cao Yanwei brothers, or did he just take one single word like Cao Xueqin in history?

However, even if his father gave Tianyou a big name, "Zan", Cao Yong would not be as nervous as before. The pillar of the Cao family is still there, and the Cao family is gradually avoiding the original historical track.

Cao Yong and Chu Yu are now living in the inner house. Now that Cao Yin and his wife are here, there is no reason to let their parents live in the side yard. Fortunately, they are empty in the east house first, so Cao Yong and his couple only live in the West Warehouse, so they don’t have to vacate the room now.

Because I had already had news that the two elders were coming, the luggage and utensils in the east house were replaced with new ones.

Li sat on the kang in the east room, hugging his eldest grandson, smiling from ear to ear. The little guy is half a year old and becomes a little moved. He always stretches out his little arms and sways, grabs everything.

Chu Yu led Wu'er and sat by the kang, talking with her. Li looked at Wu'er who was smiling and praised: "At this age, you can tell that he is a beautiful baby, and he looks handsome than her sisters!"

Although Wu'er was only two and a half years old, Xusui was four years old. He could hear good things and say no. He knew that he was praising him, so he smiled and leaned into Chuyu's arms.

Chu Yu smiled and touched Wu'er's head, saying, "Look at what my mother said, looking at my sister and third sister, I think they were not inferior to Wu'er when I was a child."

Li shook his head and said, "There are five sisters in their generation. Although the four in the front are pretty good, they look a little like your grandfather and look a little tough. There is nothing in the man's family, but the daughter's family is so strong that they may suffer from this. Looking at Wu'er, they are different from her four sisters, and their eyebrows are more like their mother, and they look softer."

After hearing this, Chu Yu thought about his elder sisters and sisters. Except for Sier, who was still young and saw him few times, he could not tell anything. The other three were different in temperament, but they were all a little stubborn, just as the mother-in-law said.

The two wives of Tian from the East Courtyard, Han Lu from the West Courtyard, and the two sisters Lianqiu from the West Courtyard, came to pay their respects to her when they heard that Li was coming.

The twins born by Tian’s family, who had landed early, are not as big as Tianyou, but they are chubby and look very strong; the one who landed late is thinner than his brother, but they have been treated with medicine these past few months, and they look like ordinary children.

Mrs. Li came here to live last year and was familiar with everyone. She smiled and gave everyone a seat and said some common words. She also asked Mrs. Xiu Lu to make up for the children's 100-day rituals and the rituals of the Zhou Dynasty for Mrs. Tian and Lian Qiu.

While speaking, Amethyst came over to ask for instructions. The kitchen mat was ready, and where to place the mat to welcome the master and his wife.

Chu Yu was not good at self-discipline and asked his mother-in-law to make the decision. Li smiled and said, "There is no outsider, just look at the arrangement!"

Chu Yu asked Tian and others to talk to her mother-in-law, and went out to set up the table with Amethyst. It was still placed in the main room like New Year's Eve. There was a table in the hall and a table in the room, but the number of people was not as high as New Year's Eve. Then he asked someone to go to the front yard to invite Cao Yong and his son and others.

The two brothers Cao Yanxiao and Cao Yanwei had a low generation and did not have the same reason to have a seat with the ancestor of the hall, so they arranged to hold a cup in the outer hall. Although Cao Yin and his son were filial, they also mean that. Mr. Zhuang and Mr. Han and Mr. Lu were accompanying him, and Wei Hei was not included. Although he was more comfortable in front of Cao Yong, he always regarded himself as a servant and naturally refused to surpass the courtesy.

At the table inside, several grandmothers, wives and concubines who came to pay tribute were kept and accompanied Li to eat the table. Chu Yu brought Amethyst to serve the dishes.

Although Li asked Chu Yu to sit with him, there were rules after all, so how could Chu Yu be ignorant? Naturally, he insisted on serving his mother-in-law for food.

This time when we went to Beijing, the Cao and Li families were traveling together, and took several large ships and walked on the waterway. After entering Yizhou, Cao Yin and his wife were about to come to pick up their son and daughter-in-law, they separated.

Although it is still half a month before the Wanbao Festival, the waterway trip is slower. At most, you have to stay for another day or two before you go to the canal. The Cao family's boat is still there.

Not to mention the reunion of Cao Yin and his family, they were having fun, and Li Xu and Li Ding and his son were standing all the way north to chat about the bow of the boat.

Although the father and son were also going to the capital together, they were not as decent as the Cao family. In the early report of the imperial court, Cao Yong was not seen on the list of foreign ministers who came to the capital to celebrate their birthday, and Li Xu was just doing ordinary things.

After all, Cao Yong was young and had just been out for a year, and he had never heard of any achievements in the local area. Although he was guarding the road, now that the country is peaceful and the people are peaceful, how can he make any contributions?

However, when he went to Jiangning to meet with the Cao family and knew that Cao Yong was also in the list of foreign ministers who came to Beijing to celebrate his birthday, Li Xu felt a little uncomfortable.

Standing at the bow of the boat, looking at the canal covered by the setting sun, there was an indescribable and bleak feeling in the rippling water. Li Xu sighed and said, "The old lady is sick, it's not the time!"

Although there was only one sentence without beginning or end, Li Ding thought for a moment and knew what his father meant.

Although Li Xu was scolded by Kangxi Shen because of his relationship with the former governor of the two rivers in the past two years, Kangxi was the most nostalgic and rewarded Li Xu's mother, the old lady Wen family, during the New Year Festival.

Although Mrs. Wen has been a resident in the palace for less than that of Mrs. Sun, she has been a nanny in Kangxi after all, and she is the only one of the old men who was alive. She is over 80 years old and is still a bit decent in front of Kangxi.

Can the Cao family rely on their sons, but their own family can only rely on their grandmother? Li Ding was dissatisfied and asked: "Father, since the Cao family has already raised the flag, the Jiangning Weaving Department should be arranged by the Office of the Internal Affairs to take over. Why is the uncle of the Cao family still in office?"

Li Xu shook his head and replied, "It's not that simple. The Grand Master of the Cao family went south and brought people to build a weaving yamen. Jiangning Weaving is not only Jiangning Weaving, but Jiangning Weaving Mansion is also Cao's Mansion, which is the place where the three generations of the Cao family's grandchildren live. The Emperor of Longsheng needs the most and is favored when the old ministers are favored. Not to mention the drama of the Cao family's "payment of debts from the whole family" in the past few years made Emperor of Longsheng feel more and more gratitude. Now thinking about it, he is confused as a father, and his heart is growing more and more fame and fortune is growing, and he forgets the Emperor of Longsheng's earlier temper!"

This time, Li Ding went to Beijing, just like Cao Yong a few years ago, and he also wanted to be a staff member of the guard office. When he heard his father talk about the temper of Emperor Long Sui, he was very curious and asked, "Father, don't you say that your heart is unpredictable? Could it be that Emperor Long Sui has any other preferences and taboos that his father knows?"

After asking, Li Ding knew why. Apart from the emperor's honor, Emperor Longsheng is just an old man, and he does not have more eyes or ears than ordinary people. He has seen him in his early years, but because the atmosphere was solemn and solemn at that time, he was not as bold as he is now. He bowed his head and kowtowed to pay his respects. His impression of the emperor was just a trance remembering it.

My father was a bad guy with Emperor Long Live, and it was not rare to know that his temper and character were not rare.

Li Xu said: "I have not been in the capital for many years, and I have met Master Wansui in a few times. I just feel that Master Wansui is becoming more and more majestic. Although the king and his subjects get along with each other, they are easy-going, but they no longer see the closeness of their early years, which makes people feel panic.

I also felt panic for my father and prepared for the future of the family. But I forgot the temper of the emperor, and I was most impatient with others' greed.

The more you want to ask for something, even if he wants to give it to you, he will take it back; otherwise, the same is true.

Your Cao family uncle has been calm in the past two years, and rarely responds to officialdom, and has the desire to fade out of the political situation in Jiangnan. I am afraid that he will be reluctant to step down from the weaving position, return to Beijing to retire or go to Cao Yong to have fun with his grandchildren.

This is true for him, and Cao Yong is the same. He was not exposed when he was in the capital. Except for a few close relatives and the thirteenth prince, the sixteenth prince, and other powerful princes, they were all unrelated.

I don’t know if their father and son mean this or their personality, but they may not be able to do it.

Since loyalty is a sign of it, what remains is naturally the honor and favor of the Emperor Longsheng. How could they allow their father and son to remain so deserted? In order to protect the property of the Cao family and not be subject to strain on moving, so that your aunt and uncle have a place to retire. I am afraid that Emperor Longsheng will not let the Ministry of Internal Affairs arrange people in Jiangning."
