Reborn in the last years of Kangxi

Chapter 1089 Daughter's Happiness

In a blink of an eye, the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and there are more and more trivial matters in Cao's house.

Because there are more people visiting Cao's family this year, Wei Bai's family and Sister Gui's, Chu Yu had people prepare melons, grapes, crab mooncakes and other festive things to send over.

Not to mention the baskets of white grapes and the crisp watermelon, let’s just say that the mooncakes are baked by the masters of Daoxiang Village in the Cao Mansion. The suits are also overwhelming.It smells delicious, and it makes people unable to let go after eating it.

Wei Bai was a vulgar person, so he didn't think anything of it; Fang Cha could see that these things were even more delicate than the mooncakes prepared by Zhizaofu for festivals in the early years.Cao's family has become higher and higher, but the old ladies and ladies still treat others warmly.

Although Wei Hei and Xiangcao are attached to the Cao Mansion, their life is no worse than their second wife.Yaohui studied with Qiye Changsheng, and his food and clothing expenses were similar to those of the young masters outside.

On this day, Fang Cha and her sister-in-law Xiang Cao went to the Duke's Mansion to greet Cao Yi.

Rich in body and noble in spirit, Cao Yi's demeanor is no longer that of the third girl who came to Beijing after being frightened.

While Fang Cha is sincerely respectful, she is also ashamed of her ignorance in the past.

In Xiangcao's heart, she was also ashamed of Cao Yi, but it was different from Fangcha.A servant like her usually accompanies girls when they grow up.Back then, the girl was sympathetic to her, and she was reluctant to part with her parents, so she finally stayed in Cao's house.Vanilla is a sincere person. While feeling grateful for the kindness of the third girl, she always feels that she is selfish and has committed the crime of infidelity.

For this reason, even though she has been released all these years and shed her maidservant to become a citizen, Xiang Cao still regards Cao Yi as her master in her heart.Please stay safe during the holidays. Every year for Cao Yi’s birthday, Xiang Cao makes shoes and socks by herself.

After Cao Yi added two little elder brothers, Xiangcao came over to give them more little clothes, hats and so on.

Cao Yi grew up with her as a child, and their relationship is more intimate than ordinary people. When they speak, there is familiarity and intimacy.Even with that, he was a bit more polite to Fang Cha.He also laughed at the fact that the two of them were destined to be together when they were young, and became sisters-in-law when they grew up.

Fang Cha looked at the eyes full of wealth and wealth, and her heart became more peaceful.

Back home that night, looking at her strong husband and two sensible and filial sons, Fang Cha had a genuine smile on her face.

Although they are old couples, because of Wei Bai's age, he has always been very fond of Fang Cha, a young wife.Seeing his wife happy, Wei Bai is also in a good mood.

After dinner, he sent his son and his servants back early, sat down next to Fangcha, and said: "Grandma is tired after going out for half a day, let me rub her legs."

Seeing the husband who was five-year-old and three-year-old making gentle and small gestures, Fang Cha couldn't help but laugh, pushed him, and said, "Second master, don't make trouble, what will happen to others, this concubine can't bear it. "

Wei Bai's hand had already moved from Fang Cha's calf to her thigh, rubbing it and said, "Yao Zong is already ten years old, how about adding two little brothers to him?"

Seeing that he was being dishonest, Fang Cha grabbed his hand and said angrily, "It's not Erye who suffered, but Erye doesn't hurt his back when he speaks!"

Wei Bai knew that she wasn't really annoyed, so he licked his face and said, "If you encounter any happy event, grandma will tell you about it?"

Fang Cha grabbed Wei Bai's arm and said softly, "Second Lord, hurry up tomorrow and send someone to repair the house on the Zhuangzi in the countryside outside the city. When the eldest and second child get married, we will retire to the Zhuangzi..."

Wei Bai was stunned when he heard this.

The reason why he brought his wife and children back to Beijing, apart from being reluctant to part with his elder brother and Cao Yong, was mostly for his family, for the future of his sons, and his wife had relatives and acquaintances to move around, which was no longer as deserted as when he was in Henan.

"Isn't it good in the city? Why do you want to go back to the countryside?" Wei Bai asked cautiously.

Fang Cha glanced at him, and said with a smile: "Why else, thinking about those days of running dogs and cats. Although the city is good, it is not as comfortable and leisurely as the countryside. Let's say that this grape... Although it looks good, it is nothing compared to it. The fresh ones are picked from the grape rack at home. The second master likes to eat watermelon, so he will add a melon patch in Zhuangzi in the coming year. If the second master wants to eat it, he will go directly to the melon seedlings to pick it."

After hearing this, Wei Bai also thought of the life in the country, and felt a little yearning for it. "Hehe" smiled and said, "Give me a melon patch, and something for grandma?"

Fang Cha pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Chickens, ducks and geese are indispensable, so don't ask for others. In the future, in time for the festival, we will use country things to give gifts, who made us a country family."

Wei Bai took her hand and said, "You don't need to wait for the eldest and the second to marry a wife. Since grandma likes the countryside and it will be warmer next year, let's go to Zhuangzi to live in the summer. If it's cold, it's cheaper to live in the city."

Fang Cha nodded and smiled...

Cao Mansion, Orchid Courtyard, Shang Fang.

Sitting on the kang, Mrs. Li told Cao Yong what she had seen and heard about entering the palace today.Today, Mrs. Li and Chu Yu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went to the palace to visit Concubine Mi.

Just listen to Li's saying: "Concubine Mi is in the West Palace of Compassionate Ning Palace. The yard is not big, but it is elegant. Behind it is the Garden of Compassionate Palace, and the vegetation and scenery are also good. Xiangyu is working in the West Palace now, and there is a concubine Take care of her, and the conditioning is better than when she was at home. Sun Shan is also working in the Palace of Compassion, and is beside Chen Guiren. I heard that Chen Guiren got the news and asked the concubine for help. She is grateful, and her own status It's not high, but it still misses the old relationship of the Sun family." At the end of the speech, there was a bit of emotion.

Hearing what his mother said, Cao Yong thought of his cousin Chen who had lived in the Chrysanthemum Courtyard.Although she has lost her naturalness, she is an out-and-out beauty, but now she can only wait for her age to grow old in the Compassion Palace.

But think about the 21-year-old brother, who is already 14 years old this year, and in six or seven years he will be conferred a title and opened a mansion.In the form of Yongzheng's superiority to the young brothers and the respectful manner of the 21st elder brother, this title should not be too low.

At that time, Chen Guiren's mother will be able to go out of the palace to take care of her son, and her life may not be as comfortable as that of Concubine Mi.

Even raising a kitten and puppy still has feelings, not to mention that Xiangyu has lived in the Cao Mansion for so many years, and she is a cute and cute little girl.

Hearing that she and Sun Shan settled well, Cao Yong was also really happy.

One must know that there is another advantage of being an errand in the Compassionate Ning Palace. In the future, the concubines will leave the palace to take care of them, and they also have the hope of leaving the palace as soon as possible.

"Wu'er? How?" Cao Yong asked.

If he could choose, he would oppose Wu'er entering the palace.But things have come to this, he still hopes that his cousin's life will be easier.He has always had a heart of pity for the poor and the weak, and as a cousin, he, like Chu Yu, prefers Wu'er, who lost his father and mother when he was young.

"I didn't see her, but listening to the concubine, her life is going well. Although the status is not high, the empress and concubine Xi like her very much, and they often reward her." When mentioning Wu'er, Li smiled. It's a little bit reluctant.

Seeing this, Cao Yong knew that there was something else hidden, glanced at Chu Yu next to him, and diverted the conversation to the matter of the festival.

Because last year's Mid-Autumn Festival, he and Tianyou went out of Beijing, and even the house was a bit deserted for the New Year. This year, Mrs. Li's intention is to make it lively and lively.

I don't want to, this is coming, Cao Fu was ordered to work, and along with his colleagues from the Ministry of Rites, he was working outside the examination room, so he couldn't go home for the festival.

"Bring Wenqi's mother and daughter over for the festival, so that their mother and daughter will not be deserted and the house will be more lively." Li Shi said with a smile.

Cao Yong and Chu Yu agreed naturally, and Cao Yong mentioned everyone in the Wei family.Wei Wenjie was about to end, and Aunt Gui brought Wen Zhi, Wen Qiang, mother and son to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival in Beijing for the first time, so it would be nice to take over for the festival.

Li Shixi liked Aunt Gui's loyalty and obedience, and she really liked the younger ones of the Wei family, so she was happy to pick them up.

In addition to foreign guests, people from the two prefectures can also set up a few tables and make it lively.

After talking with her son, Mrs. Li couldn't wait to go to the Shaoyuan, so that she could talk to Gao Taijun, so that the old man would not worry about Xiangyu and Wu'er.You know, apart from Xiangyu, Wu'er was also taken care of by her old man when she was a child.It's just that Wu'er had just landed at that time and was still in her infancy, so she didn't remember this matter.

Cao Yong and Chu Yu returned to Wutong Garden.

"But what's wrong with Wu'er?" Cao Yong asked, frowning.

As far as Wu'er's appearance is concerned, among the older sisters of the Cao family, they are all outstanding.In addition, she is intelligent, used to read people's faces, and behaves gently and softly.If this kind of Wu'er is still unstable in elder brother's place, it can only be said that Hongli is too picky.

Women in the palace these days are closely related to their natal families outside the palace.

If Hongli treated Wu'er badly, it would be a slap in the face of the Cao family.

"Fifth sister, maybe you suffer because you are young. The concubine didn't say anything, but I heard that there is a favored palace man next to the fourth elder brother... But the fourth elder brother also knows how to measure, and the affairs of the elder brother are now making the fifth younger sister Lead someone to cook. Fifth Younger Sister is a sensible person, she dares not be self-reliant in everything, and follows the established rules. If there is anything she doesn't understand, she will ask Empress Xi and Empress Yu for instructions, and she will never go one step further." Chu Yu said.

Others don't know, but Cao Yong knows.Gan Xiaosi is a planter, and he is famous in history for being flirtatious and lustful.

If Wu'er wants to serve others in Israel, there will always be a time when his youth will die.Qianlong lived to 88, even if Wu'er lived a long life, it is impossible for him to remain honored and favored.Harem concubines, when they reach the age of 50, they have to withdraw their green cards, and they are no longer eligible to serve in bed.

Her choice now is a safe one.The fourth elder brother's biological mother and adoptive mother are all filial, and there is still her natal family outside to support her. Even if she is not favored, she can still gain a foothold in the palace.

"In the end, the name is not correct, and the words are not smooth. Even if it is the side Fujin, it is better than the current title of Gege." Cao Yong knew that this "Gege" was a bit higher than the palace maid, and he didn't have to wait for Hongli's wedding, as long as he was married again. Pointing to the side Fujin, Wu'er will back away.

Banner people are polygamous, and this side of Fujin also has to present the jade certificate to sacrifice to the ancestors.It is not uncommon for the princely mansion of the clan to be raised by the descendant Fujin, and the side Fujin to be the director of the family.

Chu Yu smiled and said, "What's the hurry? It's still early for the fourth elder brother to open the house. When the fifth younger sister adds a younger elder brother later, maybe he will be able to lift the Fujin."

Cao Yong didn't answer the words, thinking that the emperor ordered a lot of school politics in the past two days, including Henan, so that Cao Xiang could hand over the errand and return to Beijing a year ago.

When Cao Song's brothers are successful in their careers and don't need Wu'er to give birth to a younger brother, Hongli will not treat Wu'er badly.

As the man of the Cao family, he really cannot be slack off, not only is it related to the glory of the family, but also the fate of the daughter of the Cao family.

This is the case with Wu'er now, and it will be the same with Tianhui and Nongchao in the future...
