Chapter 116 Xibao Dispels the Haze
The old lady spoke weakly: "This child has always been raised in the town. According to her, she has never helped out at the dumpling shop, and she has never been in contact with people of all kinds. How did she grow crooked?"

Mrs. Cao Er snorted softly: "Mother, you just recovered your body, but now that girl ruined it, so don't worry about her affairs."

"Lie down and rest first, me, go out and send the invited guests out."

Seeing the old lady's sick face again, Mrs. Cao's heart panicked with worry.

If the old lady collapses again, she can no longer go out to play. Who wants to wait on the old man in front of the hospital bed every day?

The endless sickness is really tiresome.

Second Madam Cao hated Chang Xiuzhu a long time ago, she walked out of the courtyard and cursed in a low voice: "This Chang Xiuzhu is really not a good one!"

As he walked, he scolded Chang Xiuzhu from the bottom of his heart, and he changed into a smiling face when he walked to the main room of the banquet.

The eldest lady who stayed in front of the sick bed tucked her quilt for her mother-in-law before speaking.

"Hey, seeing how troublesome this matter is, if I had known that the banquet would make my mother robbed, I shouldn't have done it."

"It's really a waste of money, I'm busy with things, and it drags you down."

Mrs. Cao couldn't help but sigh with emotion, the faces of the people in the room were not good-looking, and the old mother looked at her master worriedly.

Mrs. Cao went away, Mrs. Cao said while pulling her eldest daughter-in-law.

"Thanks to Miss Xi being here today. If she hadn't been clever and quick-witted and came up with a lot of ways, I'm afraid Chang Xiuzhu would really have to take advantage of the chaos to escape."

Mrs. Cao echoed: "Yes, it must be Chang Xiuzhu who is deliberately trying to harm people today."

"At first I greeted the guests at the door, and I thought it was strange to see the village head's wife coming alone."

"Thinking about it now, I'm afraid Chang Xiuzhu was out collecting poison, so she came late."

"At such a young age, he has such vicious thoughts. It's scary to think about it. It's really a human being."

"After the incident happened, no one thought about her, thanks to Xi girl and Brother Jing."

Speaking of Da Furen, she patted her chest, feeling like she was alive after a catastrophe, even more flustered than the suffering old madam.

The old mama had just fed the decoction and talked for a while, watching the master's fatigue from the side.

"Hey, don't think about it, old lady, this old servant will take care of you and rest first."

Tilting his head slightly, this signaled that the lady should leave.

There were guests outside, and the eldest lady sat down for a while, then got up, and there was another person outside the door.

"Grandma, are you feeling better?"

Cao Jingxiu is free to enter and exit every courtyard at home, and no servants will stop him, so he broke in at a trot all the way.

She was still holding Chang Xi's hand tightly, originally Chang Xi didn't come here voluntarily, she always felt that it was inappropriate to come to visit suddenly without being invited.

But Cao Jingxiu said there was nothing inappropriate, she was the village doctor's apprentice, and it was convenient for girls to go in and out of the backyard.

He dragged her away if he didn't agree with each other, and now he was standing in front of Mrs. Cao and Mrs. Chang Xi could only salute and say hello.

"Grandma Cao."

"Are you here?" Seeing Chang Xi and Cao Jingxiu coming in, everyone in the room relaxed their mouths, and their tense faces eased.

The eldest lady said with a smile on her face.

"Xi girl is really thanks to you today, and you will be shocked even thinking about it. I will open the warehouse and get you some nourishing medicinal materials to go back to the soothing soup."

What medicinal materials need to be locked in the warehouse for collection, it must be precious medicinal materials.

As soon as Chang Xi guessed it was ginseng, she quickly waved her hand to decline the offer.

"No, no, leave it to Grandma Cao, she needs it more than me."

"Besides, I'm a child. I'll take a shower at home and sleep well. Nothing will happen the next day."

"Ma'am, you don't have to spoil me with good things."

Mrs. Cao heard the words, and deliberately put on a straight face: "You will call me Aunt Cao from now on, and you will be born if you call me Mrs. Cao again."

Chang Xi smiled and nodded in response, in fact she was not used to it, but she was afraid that the ancients would taboo on verbal etiquette, and was afraid that others would misunderstand her as impolite.Now there is no need to call Da Furen, she is also happy and at ease.

She called out crisply: "Aunt Cao."

Mrs. Cao nodded in satisfaction, but she was still educating: "How can I call it a waste of the medicinal materials I gave you to nourish your body."

"Little girls should be raised carefully. If only I had a cute and smart daughter like you."

She was a little regretful, and she had a son with Master Cao, and her stomach didn't move.

Now his own son is ten years old, he was sent to the mountains to learn martial arts early, and he can't see him two or three times a year.

Seeing that the child grows up day by day, she doesn't just surround the adults all day long, she just feels that the surrounding is quiet, without the laughter of the child.

When she saw Wen Furong a few times, she somewhat envied her for having children by her side.

Now that Chang Xi has helped the Cao family several times, didn't he treat Chang Xi as his half daughter out of selfishness?
Chang Xi felt the kindness from the Cao family, and also saw the love for herself in Mrs. Cao's gentle eyes.

She suddenly burst out laughing: "Auntie wants to have a daughter, isn't that easy?"

"Auntie went to the Taoist temple to invite a grandson to come home, and pay homage, wouldn't it be enough?"

"Auntie is so beautiful, your daughter must be beautiful too."

Chang Xi's words made everyone in the room laugh.

"Do you know how old I am? I'm already 30 years old. How can it be so easy to conceive?"

The eldest lady laughed and burst into tears. She was thinking about having a baby, but she had never seen a 30-year-old woman who was still pregnant.

She was just looking forward to it in her heart, and she always felt that it was unrealistic, so she didn't take action for a long time.

Chang Xi was suspicious: "So Auntie is so young?"

For future generations, the age of 30 is the beginning of youth and has just entered the next stage of life.

There are still many people who are not married, let alone have children. Auntie Cao wants to have a second child. Isn't that an easy thing?
Chang Xi immediately relieved and said: "Don't worry, Auntie, you will definitely conceive a daughter when you are still young, maybe we will be able to drink full moon wine next year."

The eldest lady smiled, and the old lady Cao also smiled when she heard it. She doesn't pay attention to boys and girls, as long as they are of the blood of the Cao family, she treats them the same.

If the eldest daughter-in-law can conceive again and have another daughter, it will be a great joy for the Cao family in the past two years.

Thinking of this, she was still looking forward to it. The Cao family hadn't held a wedding for a long time, and a full moon wine was just what she wanted.

The masters were chatting and laughing, and the servants also pursed their lips and smiled. There was a bit of oppressive atmosphere in the bedroom just now, but it disappeared in an instant.

Mrs. Cao coughed and coughed twice: "Okay, our family will borrow Xi girl's auspicious words to change that the eldest daughter-in-law will take some time to go to the Taoist temple to ask for a descendant to come back and worship."

The eldest lady did not expect that the person who responded most positively was her mother-in-law.
