Chapter 433: Feast (Part 1)

Because today was the joy of the full moon for my niece, Cao Shuo and Cao Xiang brothers both rushed back from Haidian. Seeing Cao Yong coming back from Rehe, both of them were also a little happy.

Seeing the gift from Wanyan's family, Cao Song remembered Li Wei's visit, and quietly told Cao Yong, and mentioned the 500 taels of silver.

When Cao Yong heard that it was Li Wei coming to visit, he asked carefully and was very curious about him. Looking at the age of the same temper, Li Wei really has a chivalrous character. Maybe he was the "model governor" of the Yongzheng Dynasty.

I heard that Dong E Jinghui and his grandson lived in a difficult life, but Cao Yong did not care about the money Cao Song took to help. But with Jue Luo's temper, he might not be willing to be helped.

Cao Yong patted Cao Song on the shoulder and said, "The title of Jinghui's ancestor has been changed. Now it is just a family of ordinary people. Their grandparents and grandchildren have no resources. I am afraid that if you want to ask for this marriage, the second aunt will have greater resistance. After all, there is a difference between men and women. Before the status is determined, you should act more properly. Don't leave any words to destroy Jinghui's reputation."

Cao Song looked embarrassed, but he couldn't speak.

Seeing that Cao Yong's face was a little pale, Cao Song was afraid that his brother would be tired, so he asked Cao Yong to sit in the front hall and to bring his two brothers to welcome guests in the yard.

There were many guests coming to the front hall. Cao Yong nodded. Before he could go to the front hall, someone laughed and said, "Furuo? You are really back, it's a coincidence that I'm here!"

However, the Taipu Temple Shaoqing Yidu stood up. He turned over and dismounted, handed the reins to the servant, took two steps forward, looked Cao Yong up and down, nodded and said, "Fortunately, I just saw that I was clearer and I was full of energy!"

Cao Song, Cao Shuo, and Cao Xiang brothers stood behind Cao Yong. When they saw Yiduli, they hurriedly greeted him: "Sixth uncle!"

Yiduli's legitimate wife was Zhaojia's cousin and Ma Erhan's six daughters. In other words, he was the cousin of Cao Song's brothers.

Yiduli waved his hands at Cao Song and the others, signaled them to get up, and smiled and said to Cao Song: "I heard your aunt say that when you are filial, your mother will tell you to be married. Haha, I am twenty years old, and I am still the age to marry a wife."

Cao Song's face was red, and he lowered his head and grunted, not knowing what he was muttering.

Yiduli turned around and entered the yard with Cao Yong, saying, "I thought you hadn't come back yet, so I just sent your aunt to congratulate you. In the morning, I saw people from your mansion go to the yamen to get the newspaper, and I realized that you had arrived in Beijing yesterday." Speaking of this, with a little concern, he lowered his voice: "What's going on? I have two cousins ​​who are also following the entourage of Rehe. When I wrote this, I had different opinions. Furuo offended people?"

Cao Yong glanced at Yi Duli, but he couldn't understand it. Is Yi Duli related to the Thirteenth Prince or the Fourteenth Prince? Seeing that he usually laughed and laughed, he was very intimate with anyone.

Therefore, he also vaguely said, "It's just a bad luck. He was dragged to the siege by Master Sixteen, otherwise he wouldn't have been stuck in this place."

While they were talking, the two of them arrived in the hall. Most of the houses were young people. Not everyone knew about Cao Yong's return to Beijing, so there were more male guests than female guests.

After talking about the gossip, Yi Duli remembered that he had not congratulated him yet, and said to Cao Yong with a smile: "Fruo is the age of twentieth crown, and now he has both children. He is really envious!"

When Fengde and Fengche brothers saw that their uncle came, they all stood up and saluted and greeted each other.

When he arrived in front of several young princes of Prince Chun's mansion, Yiduli came to take the tribute...

*

Not to mention the male guest in the front yard, but also the female guest in the second gate. After seeing the child at Wutongyuan, the older and higher generations would go to Zhaojia’s Shaoyuan to talk, while the younger and lower generations would stay in Wutongyuan to accompany Chuyu.

Except for the Chun County Prince's Mansion and the Prince's Mansion who received a letter earlier, and knew that the child's eyes were a little unfavorable, the others were all surprised when they saw Tianhui.

Although they were saying auspicious words in their mouths, many people looked a little stiff.

Chu Yu smiled and accompanied the guest, only thinking that he didn't know.

Cao Jia and Cao Yi and Cao Yan are aunts, and they treat niece differently from other relatives.

Cao Jia was afraid that Chu Yu would feel uncomfortable, so he didn't know about his niece's strangeness. He picked up his niece, kissed him two times, and said with a smile: "What a handsome little look, it's only a full moon, so I can tell that he is a little beauty. Look at this little mouth pouting, our Tianhui is so ashamed!"

When Chu Yu gave birth, Cao Yi was in confinement, so he did not come to visit him. However, he also heard that the child he had been giving birth after several days. She pulled Chu Yu's hand and said, "Sister-in-law, Tianhui is protected by her brother and sister-in-law, so she should be considered a blessing."

Cao Yan is not as clever as Cao Jia and Cao Yi, so he can only smile and say, "What the third sister is saying!"

In addition to the three sisters of the Cao family, there were also the young women present, including the wife of Yongqing Qi Jia, Chuyu's sister-in-law Borjijit, and the daughter-in-law of Fengde and Fengche brothers. Zhao Jiaruhui was also there, following his two cousin-in-law and listening to everyone's talk.

Seeing everyone being careful as they spoke, Ruhui felt a little bored. She leaned over and stood beside Cao Jia, looked at Tianhui, stretched out her fingertips, touched her little face, and said, "It's the same word as my name. Go back, I'll specify to be a smart girl!"

Seeing that the child was dozing off, Cao Jia called her breasts over and waited for the child to feed her.

After hearing Ruhui's words, Cao Jia turned her head to look at her and joked: "Is this a praise of her niece or a praise of herself? I heard that her cousin's good things are coming, but in the future, she needs to change her name!"

Ruhui's face was flushed when she was said, and she whispered: "I'll go see my mother and my aunt!" Before she finished speaking, the person had already run out.

Everyone in the room laughed, and Fengde's wife smiled and said, "I'm going to say kissing, I know how to be embarrassed."

Cao Jia has heard that Zhao Jia wants to tell Cao Song about Ruhui. Although the Minister's Mansion is worthy of the Cao family, Ruhui's words and behaviors are not as quiet as ordinary ladies, and his temperament is a little bit rash, and the second wife's eldest daughter-in-law is not appropriate.

However, this is the second wife after all, and Zhao Jia is the leader, so naturally it is not her turn to speak, her married cousin.

I heard that the Minister's Mansion did not like Cao Song, but since the Minister's wife could bring her daughter to her place today, I guess she was a little willing.

Chu Yu was not in the mood to pay attention to anything else because of Tianhui’s affairs, but just forced himself to smile and listen to the crowd.

But Ruhui quickly walked out of Wutongyuan, biting her lip, feeling both embarrassed and regretful. She just felt that she was so bored in the mansion that she accompanied her mother to eat the mat.

She had no idea about her aunt's proposal. This marriage event was not as important as her own words. It wasn't it all "the orders of parents and the words of matchmakers", and who could not do it?

After all, she was thinking less. The relatives of the two families must have known that if she came to drink with her mother like this, wouldn’t she be laughed at and be shameless?

The more Ruhui thought about it, the more she became more and more embarrassed. She was already a little annoyed. She wanted to go to Shaoyuan quickly, and said that she was uncomfortable and pulled her mother back first.

Thinking of this in my heart, the faster she was going to reach the gate of Shaoyuan. Her close maid followed behind, panting. Seeing that the lady was about to hit someone, she hurriedly said, "Girl..."

But it was too late. When she heard the "Ouch" sound, Ruhui's body staggered and she sat on the ground. She felt that her ankle was so painful that tears were about to come out.

Ruhui raised her head, covering her nose and looking embarrassed. Who was not her third cousin Cao Shuo?

Ruhui immediately became angry and said angrily: "Are you blinded? Hit someone?"

Cao Shuo covered his nose, but it was not good. He and his younger brother were accompanying guests in the front yard, and he sent someone to pass on a message in the second gate, saying that it was the second wife's meaning, and asked their brothers to come to pay their respects to their aunts and aunts.

However, Cao Song heard the word "aunt" and his head became big. He sent his two younger brothers over, but he found a careless son and left it in the front yard.

Cao Shuo and Cao Xiang, one sixteen and the other fourteen, were impatient to get into the pile of female relatives. But there was no way. Since their mother had already spoken, they could only come over reluctantly.

When he arrived at the gate of Shaoyuan, Cao Shuo saw a girl in a flag dress bowing her head and stalking over. He didn't know whose girl it was. He was thinking about whether to lead his younger brother to avoid it, but he was hit.

Ruhui is already tall and is wearing the bottom of a flower pot. She lowers her head and just hits Cao Shuo's nose.

Cao Shuo only felt his nose sore, wet and blood was already flowing out. He was still surprised and only then did he recognize his cousin when he heard the angry curses.

When he first entered Beijing last year, Zhao Jia took his brothers to the Minister's Mansion. Although they were close relatives, there was a difference between men and women after all, so Cao Shuo had only seen this cousin.

Now, this cousin is still beautiful, but her eyebrows are straight and her eyes are so fierce. Cao Shuo only thought of one sentence in his heart, that is, "It is hard to raise a villain or a woman." Saint Kong is really not to deceive me.

However, he has read the books of sages since he was a child, and he has no reason to care about women when encountering problems, so he said embarrassedly: "Cousin..."

Ruhui only felt her ankle hurt so much. She looked up at her aunt's yard and then looked back at Wutongyuan. Now, she was full of guests, and she looked so embarrassed that she looked so embarrassed.

She took the maid's hand and wanted to stand up, but how could she stand?

She stretched out her hand, pointed at Cao Shuo, and ordered, "You, why don't you call two old ladies to lift me up? Do you want me to sit like this?"

Cao Shuo nodded quickly after hearing this, and wanted to go to Wutongyuan. Ruhui immediately shouted, "Auntie's house is full of guests. Did you intend to be shameless? Why don't you call me someone else and help me find a quiet place to see the wounded?"

Cao Shuo felt his scalp numb and was thinking about where to call people. Two women came over to the kitchen. Cao Shuo hurriedly called them and asked them to help Ruhui up.

Since he wanted to be a quiet place, Wutongyuan and Shaoyuan were not good. Cao Shuo had no choice for a moment. Ruhui was urging him tightly, so he asked the two women to support Ruhui to Kuiyuan. He and Cao Xiang didn't bother to go to his aunt first and greeted her, and went with him.

Hang Seng carried his breasts to Wutongyuan, and Wu En stayed here with his little girl to look at the house.

Seeing the two masters leading a girl in, Wu En was surprised, but he quickly greeted Cao Shuo and Cao Xiang.

After entering the room, Ruhui saw a cradle on the kang, frowned and asked, "Whose house is this?"

Cao Shuo replied: "It was originally my brother's old house, but later my fifth sister lived in it. Because my sister-in-law gave birth, Hang Seng's nephew is now in this yard."

Ruhui heard that it was her cousin’s house, so she looked better on the face.

Because she didn't know what was injured, Cao Shuo sent Wuen to invite Amethyst over.

After a while, Zi Jing hurried back and saw Cao Shuo and Cao Xiang here, saying, "Third Master, Fourth Master, the second wife has just sent several waves of people to urge the second door, and call you to go quickly." As she said that, she saw that there was still someone sitting on the kang, but she had never seen it before.

Cao Shuo was also afraid that his mother would nag, so he turned to his side and said to Zijing: "Sister Zijing, this is my uncle's cousin. It seems that he has twisted his ankle. Please send someone to an imperial physician to take a look. I will go and pay my respects to my aunts with my fourth brother."

Amethyst has also heard of Zhaojia's intention to marry her niece as her eldest daughter-in-law.

"So it's Miss Cousin!" Zi Jing said to Ru Huifu, and then said to Cao Shuo and Cao Xiang: "Second Master and Fourth Master, go quickly, so as not to make the second wife anxious. I will send someone to invite the imperial physician now, so you don't have to worry, both of you."

"Yes!" Cao Shuo and Cao Xiang both responded, and then left quickly.

Ruhui was already annoyed. She saw that Amethyst was well dressed, and Cao Shuo and Cao Xiang were so respectful, just thinking that they were relatives or something, but unexpectedly they were a slave.

If so, Cao Shuo should have introduced her to Amethyst first. Where can I introduce her to my servants first? Could it be that the slaves in the Earl's Mansion are superior and more noble than the lady in the Assistant Mansion?

Ruhui didn't know whether Cao Shuo had forgotten the etiquette in panic or deliberately humiliated her, but she felt angry and hated...

Front yard, living room.

Cao Yong was talking with Yiduli, and the butler Cao Zhong bowed in and replied: "Uncle, the 14th Prince and the Second Master are here. Just arrived at the gate. Look..."
