Reborn in the last years of Kangxi

Chapter 1076 The Thousand and Seventy-nine
Nianfu, the residence of the old man.

The old man was wearing clothes, sitting on the kang, his expression was full of indifference: "This is my Nian's family affairs, I will not bother the general to worry about it." Speaking of this, he glanced at the young man standing next to him, and said: "Nian Bin, see off the guests!"

In the chair on the ground sat a middle-aged man in his forties, his face flushed red upon hearing this.

The old man didn't want to say any more, he turned two jasper balls in his hand, closed his eyes and stopped looking at people.

The middle-aged man showed embarrassment, stood up, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Master-in-law, it's not that the younger generation is rude, but brother-in-law is short of manpower, so brother-in-law sent the younger generation back to pick up Brother Fu."

The old man didn't intend to argue with him, and he didn't open his eyes. The room was very depressed, only the sound of jade balls rubbing against each other.

It was because the old manager who was standing next to him gave Nian Bin a wink, Nian Bin came out bravely, and said to the middle-aged man: "Uncle just returned to Beijing, and I'm tired after thinking about it, why don't you go back and rest first, in two days Come back for a drink."

The middle-aged man knew that this was a tactful rhetoric, and he had already become a bad guest.I spent a long time talking about myself, and the old man had already shown mercy by not asking someone to kick him out, let alone eating wine or not eating.

Just looking at the old man like this, the lingering anger is still there, if the family law really punishes the old man, he really can't explain it to his sister.

But the current situation is hard to say, otherwise it will be even worse.

He could only squeeze out a few smiles, and said goodbye first.

Watching him go out, the jade ball in the old man's hand has stopped.

The old man opened his eyes, with a look of despair on his face, he sighed, and said: "The tiger's poison doesn't eat its offspring, so he is very ruthless. If you don't ask Xi'er about it, you are afraid that you will offend that young rich young man." brute!"

The old housekeeper listened and persuaded: "Master, please calm down, maybe the second wife has made up her own mind. The second wife loves the third young master, and the old master knows."

The old man snorted coldly, and said: "If there is no acquiescence from him, that wicked woman would dare to ask someone to please an old man like me!"

Not to mention that the old man was furious, but the middle-aged man slowed down after walking out of the old man's courtyard, and said to Nian Bin, "You know that your mother loves Brother Fu the most, otherwise she wouldn't have found someone in a hurry. Send us back. What the old man said is that I am an outsider after all, so I can’t say too much. Now that you are back, take care of Brother Fu and beg for mercy in front of the old man. Nian Xi was not healthy enough when he was young, so this time it is considered a dispute between brothers , it’s not good to blame the rich man.” At the end, thinking about the honesty of the old man, he also complained a bit: “The old man is really, if you really want to have a tuberculosis grandson, you have to force Kill another grandson?"

Nian Bin just listened obediently, and sent the middle-aged man outside the gate, but happened to meet Cao Yong and his party.

Seeing that Cao Yong was dressed in extraordinary clothes, and the accompanying carriage was not an ordinary carriage, Nian Bin and the middle-aged man stopped and looked over.

Cao Yong did not dismount in a hurry, but signaled Zhang Yi to come forward and hand over the post.I came here in a hurry today, and I didn't mention to send a post to the mansion last year, so I was considered an "uninvited guest".

Although Nian Bin and the middle-aged man were standing at the door, Zhang Yi didn't intend to hand over the post to them.Because these two people are busy, they are more like guests.

He bowed to the two, and then said to the concierge: "Please tell me, my master and wife are here to visit the princess."

The concierge heard that he was a guest of his eldest mistress, so he quickly bowed to meet him.

The whole family came to see their sister-in-law?Nian Bin was a little curious, but he didn't ask much about it.

If it's a serious guest, it's fine, but if it's for the name of Wangfu Gege to fight the autumn wind, if you take the initiative to step forward, you will lose your status.

Anyone else, seeing Chu Yu's carriage, should know that the owner of the carriage is the princess of the imperial clan, not a poor relative of Da Qiufeng.

It's just that Nian Bin followed his father to the post when he was a child and lived in Sichuan all the time, so he lacked a little knowledge.

The same middle-aged man, named Yu Zhu, was Nian Gengyao's brother-in-law. Although his family background was dilapidated and he lived with Nian Gengyao, he was an authentic yellow belt.

He was staring at the carriage, and after listening to what Zhang Yi and the concierge said was visiting the Princess, he had already finalized the identity of the visitor.

With a bit of hospitality, he went forward to meet Cao Yong, and said to Cao Yong: "Dare to ask your honor, is it Cao's son-in-law?"

Although Cao Yong didn't know the identity of the visitor, but seeing that he was wearing a yellow belt around his waist, he didn't want to be rude, so he got off his horse and said, "It's Cao, how dare you ask your lord?"

Yuzhu smiled and said: "But the idle clan, when Da Gege left the court in the early years, he went to Chunwang's mansion to beg for wine and food, and then went to Sichuan. I haven't seen him for many years, but Cao's son-in-law is still handsome. Last year, I heard that Cao's son-in-law was in Ganzhou , I still wanted to see her last time, but I missed it. Now that we are in-laws, we should get closer in the future."

Although he didn't bluntly say that he is Nian Gengyao's uncle, Cao Yong didn't understand when he mentioned Sichuan and Ganzhou.It is no secret that Nian Gengyao's stepwife belongs to the clan.

"It turned out to be the general, I have admired him for a long time, I have admired him for a long time!" Cao Yong did not lose his courtesy, but he did not deliberately get close.

Yuzhu didn't pick it up, and looked at the carriage behind, feeling a little puzzled.Could it be that not only the husband and wife came together, but also the young master and young lady of the Cao family?

Now that the young master of Nian's family is critically ill, and the old man of Nian's family is not in good spirits, it is inappropriate to visit the house with his family at this time, even if it is to visit his sister.

He wanted to solve his doubts, so he was not in a hurry to leave, but talked to Cao Yong one after another.

Cao Yong's heart is very tired, this jade pillar is Nian Gengyao's brother-in-law, and he is enthusiastic, but he puts on the airs of an elder, which is annoying.

However, he had no choice.

After all, starting from Qi GeGe, he has indeed become a junior.

On the contrary, Nian Bin, who came forward afterwards, did not have Nian Xi's clean-eyed eyes, nor Nian Fu's gloomy arrogance, and was somewhat calm in his humility, which made Cao Yong take a second look.

Fortunately, it didn't take long before I heard hurried footsteps.

All of a sudden, the people at the door stopped talking.

Hurrying over, it was Qigege.

She walked in a hurry, her little face was red, and beads of sweat were already dripping from the tip of her nose.

Seeing Cao Yong's figure, she was like a person who fell into the water seeing the straw, and hope bloomed in her eyes, adding a bit of brilliance to her whole body.

The fear and anxiety that had been in the past for several days seemed to be at ease all of a sudden.

She held the greeting card just now in her hand, and she didn't care to ask who the two standing beside her were, she looked at Cao Yong and said, "Big brother-in-law, big sister..."

Cao Yong turned his body sideways, pointed back and said: "Your sister is in the car...and there are distinguished guests. If it's cheaper, let them get off at the second gate."

He was talking about it, but his tone was unquestionable.

It's not that he doesn't want his wife to walk a few more steps, but because he doesn't want too many people to see Mr. Fang Zhong.

Although it is not a secret that their husband and wife brought Fang Lao here, it will be spread out in the future.But rumors are different from what they saw with their own eyes, and there is no room for hesitation.

Seeing her sister and brother-in-law approaching, Qi Gege was overjoyed; when she heard that there was another "distinguished guest", although she hadn't seen anyone yet, but thinking about what her brother-in-law said yesterday, she covered her mouth with a handkerchief and said no. speak out.

It was Cao Yongqing who coughed twice before Qi Gege woke up from the shock.

She couldn't help pinching her fingers to confirm that everything in front of her was true before she was engulfed in ecstasy.

"Open the middle door to welcome distinguished guests!" She puffed up her chest and raised her voice to order to the porter.

Not only the concierge was surprised, but even Nian Bin and Yuzhu next to him were stunned.

How could the middle door of a rich family be so easy to open, the old grandpa has now been prosecuted as a public house, this is a public house, except for the imperial envoys and imperial concubines visiting relatives, there are really few opportunities for the middle door to be opened.

Qigege saw that the porter was not moving, his willow eyebrows were erect, and his face was covered with frost, he was already a bit angry.

Seeing this, the gatekeepers didn't dare to be troublesome, they hurriedly opened the door bolt, and pushed the middle door open with a "squeak" sound.

Yuzhu was beside her, her face was a little hard to wipe off.

Compared with Cao Yong, he is the serious in-law of the Nian family, and he is also the uncle of the in-laws, and he is still a side door; Cao Yong is just the brother-in-law of the younger generation of the Nian family, so can he let the Nian family open the middle door?

He was a little annoyed, but he was curious about the "guest" Cao Yong said.

Looking at the carriage following behind the princess's carriage, there is no high-grade decoration, but it is slightly larger than the ordinary green cloth carriage.

But right now, no one can take care of solving his doubts with him.

Cao Yong was too lazy to deal with him, and when he saw the carriage entering the gate, he bowed his hands to him and said: "Please go ahead, General, Cao Mou will go ahead."

Yu Zhu had already left the gate of the Nian Mansion, so it was not easy to follow in with the cheek, so he had to force a smile and leave. Seeing the gate of the Nian Mansion slowly closing, Fang felt a little annoyed, and complained to Nian Bin: "My niece and daughter-in-law are younger, and she acts a little erratically. You are also confused and don't tell me who I am. Although I haven't met before, after all, there are differences between elders and younger..."

Nian Bin listened respectfully, but felt contemptuous in his heart.

Luckily, Yuzhu and Mrs. Nian had been talking for a long time before, and the sun at noon was very poisonous, so he didn't say any more, and finally rode away.

Nian Bin didn't stop for a moment, turned around and went in, and hurried to the second gate.

Outside the second door, apart from Cao Yong and his wife, Qi Gege, Fang Zhonggong, and the old man who came here on crutches after hearing the news.

He grabbed Cao Yong's arm, looked at Mr. Fang Zhong, and then at Cao Yong. He was full of tears and choked up in his mouth: "Master Cao, Master Cao..."

Seeing the old man so excited, Cao Yong was very worried.

After all, he is an old man in his 80s, don't worry about it, don't dare to let him get excited, and hurriedly said: "My wife is worried about the seventh sister and the seventh brother-in-law. Without the old man's nod, he took the liberty to invite someone over, and also invited the old man Don't blame it!"

The old man didn't bother to wipe the tears from his face, and said: "It's too late for me to thank you, so I can't say anything strange. I first thank Mr. Cao, thank you Princess... thank Doctor Fang for my poor grandson..." said In the end, his eyes fell on Fang Zhonggong, and he seemed eager to kneel down to Fang Zhonggong immediately, as long as Fang Zhonggong could cure his eldest grandson's illness.

Seeing the old man like this, Fang Zhonggong thought of his daughter and son-in-law far away, and felt a little compassion.

However, he also knew that he hadn't seen the patient yet, and he didn't know what to expect, so he couldn't give the old man too much hope, otherwise, at his age, he might not be able to bear the blow of hope being lost again.

Therefore, he thought about it, and said: "Xinglin is the head of the Taiyuan Hospital. The ability to see a doctor is better than that of the little old man. It is difficult to be the head of the Xing hospital. The little old man can only try..."

The old man's heart, which was originally boiling, suddenly sank.

That's right, Imperial Physician Xing is an imperial doctor, and he is helpless. Mr. Fang Zhong is just more famous among the people. Whether he can cure his grandson is still a question...
