Reborn in the last years of Kangxi

Chapter 1192

After talking with Zuo Zhu and Zuo Cheng for a while, a servant girl came to pass the word that the third aunt had arrived at the gate of the house.

After hearing this, Tianyou hurriedly greeted Zuo Zhu and Zuo Cheng to get up, and the three greeted them out together.

As soon as he arrived at the second gate, he saw Cao Yi holding the maid's hand and getting off the carriage.San Xiao hurriedly stepped forward to greet Cao Yi.

Cao Yixu screamed, and then said to Tianyou with a smile: "Today is your good day, aunt is here to beg for a bowl of noodles."

Tianyou took two steps forward, replaced the girl next to Cao Yi, gently supported Cao Yi's arm, and said in a low voice: "My aunt uses her nephew as a cover, who doesn't know that my aunt uses her son to return home because of the old lady's return?" Not only my aunt misses the old lady, but the old lady also misses my aunt all the time. To be disrespectful, even for my second aunt and father, I have never seen the old lady so concerned about her.”

Cao Yi smiled, and said angrily: "What are you talking about, what is the old lady worried about, and why can't you report it to your grandson?"

Tianyou smiled and stopped talking.

Cao Yi turned his head, looked at Zuo Zhu and Zuo Cheng, and said, "I heard that I will be hired by the Ma family and the Zhu family, have you booked a date?"

Zuo Zhu blushed and said, "Ma's family has set a date for the 28th of this month, and Zhu's family has to wait for the return of foster father and foster mother before setting the date."

Although Cao Yi is a female family member of the inner house, but because she cares about her elder brother, she also knows something about Zhu's family.Seeing that Zuo Cheng's face was normal and not uncomfortable, she nodded secretly in her heart, and said in a different way: "Finally, you will be dragged up, and the daughter-in-law will also come in. It is not in vain for your mother to guard all these years."

As soon as he spoke, the crowd had already surrounded Cao Yi and arrived at the Orchid Courtyard.

Standing on the porch, Mrs. Li felt a little excited when she saw Cao Yi.

Seeing this, Cao Yi stepped forward, leaned over and said, "Old lady."

Mrs. Li supported her, took her hand, sized her up carefully, frowned and said, "Why did you lose weight again? Useless the food tonic prescription that your sister-in-law sent back at the beginning of the year?"

"I'm eating, it's just that the seasons change these days, and there are so many chores in the house, so it's a little easier." Cao Yi said coquettishly.

Mrs. Li patted her hand, and the two entered the upper room.

Seeing this, Tianyou, Zuo Zhu and Zuo Cheng all turned their heads to look in the direction of Dongfu.

Today is God Bless's birthday, Cao Yi is returning to the province, and the second old lady will inevitably come.At that time, I'm afraid it will be sour again.

"This means that nurturing kindness is greater than parental kindness!" Tianyou whispered to himself.

Hearing this, Zuo Zhu nodded hurriedly, and said, "That's right, that's right, in my heart, only the old lady is the grandmother, and the seven uncles in the East Mansion are the uncles; the one over there always feels that there is something separated."

Zuo Cheng didn't speak, but it could be seen from his expression that he strongly agreed with his brother's words.

When Tianyou heard the words, he said solemnly: "Whether you like it or not, you still have to do what you should do. If you talk about it outside, you won't talk about it. We are juniors, with the word 'filial piety' on top of our heads, there is not much. room for words."

The three brothers talked in a low voice outside for a while, and then entered the house after Momo Li and Cao Yi finished talking privately.

Mrs. Li told the little brother to sit down, then called a woman, and ordered to go to Dongfu to invite the second old lady, the fourth wife, and the fourth girl to come over for lunch.

At this time, Mao Zedong brought Tianbao in to greet Cao Yi.

Cao Yi hugged him, got closer, and put an amber pendant in his hand before letting go.

The amber is light yellow, transparent all over, and there is a colorful beetle inside, which is lifelike.

Holding Tianbao in his hand, it was extremely rare. He held the pendant and walked to Mrs. Li, showed it to his grandmother, and showed it to his three elder brothers.

Seeing him smiling proudly, Tianyou patted his forehead and said: "But remember carefully, although this is honey-colored, it's not sweet, so you can't put it in your mouth."

Ever since Tianbao was ill, he didn't know if it was because he suffered from taking medicine, but he began to like sweets.It's just that Mrs. Li made people stare at him, so he didn't eat his teeth.

Because of eating too many pastries, Tianbao's body is much fatter than before, and his small face is round, which is very rare to see.

Seeing his elder brother teasing him, Tianbao blushed and ran to Zuo Zhu and Zuo Cheng.

Zuo Zhu has always been patient, he leaned over to pick up Tian Bao, let him sit on his lap, and coaxed him to speak in a slow voice.

Tianbao has always been close to Zuozhu, holding the amber pendant in one hand, and the button on Zuozhu's one-piece vest with the other, looking at that posture, he wants to fasten the amber pendant to the button of Zuozhu.

He is only five years old, and he is still ignorant, and he doesn't know the difference between men's and women's clothing.Just because the pendant was untied by his aunt from the cuff of the skirt, he thought it should be in that position.

Zuo Zhu saw Tianbao's intentions, quickly grabbed Tianbao's little hand, and said, "Don't tie it on Brother Song, Tianbao can play by himself."

Tianbao was persistent, holding up the amber, and said in a childlike voice, "Brother Song got married...a gift..."

Although it is childish, it also reveals the truth.

Moved by Zuo Zhu's heart, he hugged Tianbao even tighter, tied the amber pendant around his waist, and said softly: "Brother Xinyisong took it, but it was given by the third aunt, Tianbao must be put away carefully."

Tianbao looked at Zuozhu, then turned to look at Cao Yi, his face was a little confused.

Although amber is not a rare thing, it is not common for the living things inside to be intact, and the color is beautiful and flawless.It was Cao Yi who untied it from his body again, so it can be seen that it is not vulgar.

Tianyou was afraid that Cao Yi would be unhappy, so he hurriedly said, "Young brother, it's been a while since you got married, and you always remember to give presents; today's elder brother's birthday, and you didn't see you preparing gifts?" The purse under Tianbao's waist.

Tianbao followed his gaze, looked down at his purse, took it off generously, and then jumped off on his left, and gave the purse to Tianyou.

It contained Tianbao's favorite preserved fruit. Tianyou wanted to tease the younger brother and divert his attention from Amber.Unexpectedly, although my younger brother is young, he is not as protective of food as ordinary children.

Tianyou was in a good mood, took out a candied peach from his purse, and said with a smile, "This is worthy of a congratulatory gift." Then, he tied the purse back to Tianbao.

Seeing his little grandson being so sensible, Mrs. Li narrowed her eyes with a smile.Cao Yi also praised: "After more than ten years, the relationship between their brothers is good."

After Tianbao gave his elder brother a "congratulatory gift", he remembered that Zuo Zhu had confiscated the amber pendant just now, so he ran to Zuo Zhu, dug out a candied pear from his purse, and handed it to him.

Zuo Zhu thanked him with a smile, and put the candied fruit in his mouth.A delicious expression.

"Giggle..." Tianbao laughed crisply, which immediately added a lot of anger to the room.

Although Zuo Cheng doesn't like candied fruit, it can be seen that the two elder brothers have received gifts, and they are somewhat sour, complaining in their hearts: "This brat, he forgot who bought these candied fruits for him!"

Fortunately, Tianbao felt very obedient, ran to him again, and obediently handed over a piece of red fruit.

After feeding the three elder brothers, Tianbao returned to the kang and snuggled into Li's arms.

Cao Yi had already asked someone to take out several purses and a half-foot-long box, and said to Mrs. Li: "A few days ago, I paid tribute to two boxes of amber outside. I heard that they came from the West. I picked a few pieces. Yes, I asked someone to polish a few pairs of pendants, and I brought them here today, just to distribute to my nephews. The remaining half of the box of amber is to honor the old lady, and if I can make a few strings of beads, I can give it to others directly."

There are four purses in total, apart from Tianyou and Zuozhu brothers, even Hang Seng who is not in Beijing also has a share.

Tianyou and Zuozhu took it with both hands and bowed to thank them, but they were all wondering why there was no longevity.

Mrs. Li was also puzzled, Cao Yi's status was limited, he didn't have much time to return to Ning, but he cared very much for this young brother Changsheng, no less than a few nephews.

She didn't know the reason until she opened the purse left for Hang Seng and saw that there were pairs of ambers in it, mostly symbolizing yin and yang.

At this moment, a woman came to reply, saying that she had seen the second old lady, and the second old lady would arrive later.

Li's envoys took Amber away, and Zhang Jia's house sent envoys over yesterday, saying that the old lady invited them, Zuo Zhu and Zuo Cheng brothers wanted to go over and make an appointment, and they would first accuse them of their crimes and leave.

Tianyou waited for the elders from the East Mansion to come over, greeted Ann, and said a few words with him before returning to the Sunflower Courtyard.

It's fine to get up early, but it's a bit cloudy at the moment, and the wind is blowing "hoo hoo".

Only Le Qing was in the upper room, she had already found out a vest with velvet trimmed with auspicious patterns, and when Tianyou came back, she wanted to help him put it on.

Tianyou said helplessly: "It's cold everywhere, the jacket on my body is made of thick material."

Le Qing stood in front of him, and said softly: "The autumn wind is hard, and the master and wife are not in the house now, if the master is blowing and his body is uncomfortable, wouldn't it make the old lady worry?"

After hearing this, Tianyou let her put it on.

After putting it on, Le Qing stood in front of Tianyou and buttoned the front of him.

Because she has become very thin recently, blue veins appeared on the back of Le Qing's pale hands.

Looking at her hands, Tianyou felt a little frustrated, stretched out his hand, and put it on the back of Le Qing's hand.

Le Qing's hands trembled, and he raised his head, somewhat flustered.

Tianyou sighed inwardly, and said softly: "Sister, don't worry anymore, and I don't want my sister to go out to marry someone. When my mother comes back, I will report to my mother and keep my sister in this yard for a long time..."

"Master..." Le Qing couldn't help turning pale when his mind was exposed, showing a bit of panic: "Master, slave... slave..."

She shook her head desperately, but she really couldn't go against her will and say "no".In desperation, tears rolled down my face.

She is nineteen this year, and according to the rules, she will go out to be married next year at the latest.

Because the masters in the mansion do not own concubines, the wife has no intention of intervening in the intercourse of the young masters and arranging a room for the son.

Although Le Qing admired Tianyou, he didn't dare to show it at all. On the contrary, he had to follow Chu Yu's orders to prevent the girl from getting bigger and hooking up with Tianyou.

It was because Mo Zhi had other thoughts in his heart that he acted wrong, so he asked Le Qing to find an excuse, warn him, and send him out temporarily.However, this also aroused her thoughts, and these days, she has trouble sleeping and eating, and is extremely haggard.

Le Qing didn't feel happy about Tianyou's words, but only felt shame and fear.

I am ashamed that my anxiety these days has fallen into Tianyou's eyes, and I am afraid that the revelation of the matter will make my wife misunderstand that I have a bad heart...

On the official road from Qingyuan to the capital, because of the wind blowing outside, Chuyu ordered people through the curtain of the carriage to invite her husband to get into the carriage.

There are clean towels in the seat drawer.Cao Yong felt that his face was covered with dust, so he took a towel and wiped it, and then he felt better.

Thinking that there are still three or two days to go to Beijing, Chu Yu was a little excited, and said: "Before in Qingyuan, there was really no suitable family; now that we are back in Beijing, Tianhui can wait a little longer. The marriage between Tianyou and Hang Seng has to be discussed..."

Tears, monthly pass, monthly pass, waving a small book, begging for a monthly pass...
