Reborn in the last years of Kangxi

Chapter 1315 The first thousand 310 eighth luncheon
Zuo Cheng followed his elder brother and watched the farce with cold eyes. He was even more tired of the so-called clan members, and he remembered the kindness of the elders of the Cao family even more.

At this time, the boy came to report, saying that God Bless had come, and he was waiting outside, but Zuo Cheng was concerned and confused, thinking of something bad, he rushed out in a panic, causing this false alarm.

Tianyou has a clear mind and grew up with Zuo Cheng, so he has a tacit understanding, without him saying anything, he knows why he is flustered.

When Zuo Zhu also approached, Tian Youjiu waved his hand, and sent the boy to follow behind, and he lived with Zuo Cheng and Zuo Cheng to stroll outside the alley.

While walking, Tianyou said that his father had already bought the old house of the Ning family, and told the two brothers that they no longer had to worry about how to take care of Mrs. Ning.

The two brothers, who have been worrying about this for the past two days, were overjoyed to hear such a solution.

After the joy, the brother's face sank.

Zuo Zhu looked ashamed, and said: "The adoptive father is still sick, we can't serve the bedside of the sick, but we want to make the adoptive father worry about our sake, it is really unfilial of us."

Zuo Cheng was in a daze, and he didn't wake up until Zuo Zhu pulled him.

Tianyou looked at him, shook his head, and said: "What are you thinking about? You, you can't relax your mind. If there is any difficulty, everyone discusses to find a solution. Don't think too much yourself. You are only a little old. Just like a little old man."

He raised his face, but he looked like an elder brother. Zuo Cheng respected him from the bottom of his heart, but hearing his old-fashioned words, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Brother talks and acts like a foster father more and more."

Tianyou glanced at him with a smile, and said: "The country is easy to change, and the nature is hard to change. Isn't this revealed? You have to get back every word, and you don't want to suffer in the slightest. Keep this habit in the future, don't worry too much, you can solve it." No, there are also elders, no one will watch your brothers suffer."

The news brought by Tianyou, no matter what information is behind it, but thinking about not having to move back to the iron-like house run by Mrs. Ning, Zuo Cheng's heart has been hanging for two days, and then he feels at ease.

The sky was getting darker and darker. I don't know when the north wind blew up, and it hurt people's faces when it really blew. Zuo Zhu and Zuo Cheng didn't save God, they talked to him a few words and urged him to go back.

When Tianyou passed on the word, there was nothing to worry about. He bid farewell to the two brothers and brought the servant back.

The sky was dark, and from a distance, someone from Ning's house picked up lanterns and hung them up high.

Because of every funeral, white lanterns are naturally hung, looking from a distance, it looks a bit bleak.

Zuo Zhu hesitated for a moment, and said: "Second brother, it's different now, we have moved out of the mansion, and our adoptive father and adoptive mother bought the land for you and me in the early years, is it inappropriate to take over this house now? Is it too greedy?"

He was really taken aback by the scene of tit-for-tat for money and industry just now.

Cao Yong only said that the fields and pavements bought by Tian's name in the early years were all purchased after profit from Tian's principal, and they did not enjoy the glory of Cao's family.

But one year after returning to the sect, their brothers knew more about the events of the year.

Back then, the Ning family was ruined, and the aunt's dowry jewelry was all gone.

Someone from Niu Gulu's family came to inquire, but nothing happened afterwards. The reason why they didn't pursue it again was because most of the jewelry had been pawned.

With Niu Gulu's dowry list and those death pawn bills, one can know how much Tian's gifts are.

Without the care of the adoptive father's family, let alone returning to the capital to buy real estate, it is one thing whether he can keep his money, eat and clothe himself warmly.

In the eyes of the world, the adoptive father's property should be passed on to the descendants of the Cao family, but it was distributed to their brothers and Hang Seng a lot.

Adoptive fathers and adoptive mothers regard their brothers as their own, and they also honor the same pair of biological parents.

As the eldest brother, Tianyou has always taken care of them, and they don't think they care too much, but when Tianbao, who is ten years behind them in age, grows up, will he despise them because of this?
And Chang Sheng, who is about to grow up, if there is any dissatisfaction with the separation of the family in the future, will he use their brothers' affairs to pick on the elder brother?What are you talking about, such as being richer to outsiders than to your own family?
Zuo Zhu couldn't imagine what it would be like if the younger generation of the Cao family also learned to intrigue.

Zuo Cheng heard this, stopped in his tracks, and said, "Could it be that elder brother thinks that the adoptive father bought the old house of Ning's family not to give it to you and my brother, but to keep it for himself?"

Zuo Zhu was taken aback, and said: "Yes, foster father does not lack a house. That's why..."

Zuo Cheng raised his eyebrows and said, "Why is there such a thing? Xu Shi just happened to hear that the other party was going to sell, so the adoptive father took over."

Zuo Zhu has always been his younger brother and said with a smile: "This is the so-called unintentional insertion. According to the idea of ​​the elder brother, the second younger brother has nothing to worry about."

Zuo Cheng smiled and said nothing, but his heart was sour.

The adoptive father bought the old house, but he didn't tell their brothers before, there must be a reason.

It's just that he never forgets to help their father rehabilitate, not only for the sake of being friends with their father, but also for the love and affection of their brothers.

Their brothers have already become officials, so they know the dangers in the officialdom.

That's all for now, the brothers are just writing and writing, doing odd jobs in the six departments.When their brothers were promoted, their father and grandfather's resume was conspicuous.

After being a prisoner, it will be a big hurdle for their brothers' official career.

With the identity and popularity of the adoptive father, who else can make him helpless?
Zuo Cheng looked at the white lantern in front of him and squinted his eyes.

The emperor has passed 50 years of life. Throughout the ages, which emperor can really live forever...

The next day, the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, is the new year.

In order to get rid of illnesses and evil spirits, Chu Yu had sent people to buy several large boxes of firecrackers.

Early in the morning, when he heard the sound of firecrackers from people around him, Tianyou took Changsheng and Tianbao to the front yard to set off firecrackers.

The sound of "crackling" firecrackers lasted for half an hour.

Even in Wutong Garden, you can hear it clearly.

At noon today, there is a banquet in the mansion here.In addition to Wen Zhi and Niu Niu's couple, Cao Xiang's family from the East Mansion were entertained, and Hang Seng naturally also arrived.

If it wasn't for the sudden death of Mrs. Ning, Zuo Zhu and Zuo Cheng would also come.

According to Cao Yong's meaning, the family banquet should have been placed in the Orchid Court as usual.

Mrs. Li felt sorry for her son, knowing that he could not see the cool air, so she asked Chu Yu to arrange him in Wutong Garden.

The room in Wutongyuan was already warm.

Cao Yong led the men to talk in the east room, while the women's family members were all outside the west room.

Niu Niu has been pregnant for four months, she wears loose clothes, and her face is much rounder.

It doesn't matter who's family it's in. It's a happy event.Mrs. Li looked at Niuniu cheerfully, and only said that she was blessed.

Chuyu took Niuniu into the back room under the pretext of asking Niuniu to change her clothes, and asked her in a low voice about her daily life, sitting and sleeping these days, whether the servant girls are naughty, etc.

Although there is still Aunt Gui in Niuniu's house, Aunt Gui has never given birth.Even if there are other experienced servants around, Chu Yu is worried after all, and inevitably reminds her secretly.

Also worried that Tianhui was around, Chuyu had some words that the daughter of the boudoir could not hear, so she brought Niuniu to the inner room.

Cao Xiang and Chunhua's son-in-law, sister Min, are three years old, and they will be less than their second birthday, and they are just at the age of learning to speak.Unlike ordinary children who tend to be fussy, Sister Min is very well-behaved and honest.

He just sat obediently beside Chunhua, staring at everyone with his big eyes.

Mrs. Li was so rare that she hugged her behind her back.

Although Sister Min still speaks clumsily, she already remembers people.Let Li Shi hug her without struggling, and let Li Shi hug her honestly.

Mrs. Li groped Miss Min's back, feeling her heart was about to melt, and said to Chunhua with a smile: "Our sister Min is really sweet, I have never seen such a well-behaved child."

Mrs. Li sincerely praised her, but with Tianhui at the side, Chunhua couldn't resist responding harshly, and said with a smile: "She also has skin. But she is much more honest when she is in front of Auntie. The fourth master teased her yesterday. If he hides her cloth tiger, she will take revenge and refuse to talk to fourth master again. She will not speak again until fourth master can't bear to take out the cloth tiger. "

Sister Min seemed to hear that Chunhua was talking about herself, she was a little embarrassed, she turned around, and buried her little head in Li's arms.

Mrs. Li caressed Sister Min, her expression became more and more loving.

When she was growing up as a daughter, she was the housekeeper's wife. She had to take care of the housework and also bear the responsibility of inheriting the heir. In addition, the daughter was brought up by the old lady, and the time the mother and daughter spent together was limited.

Even if they are close relatives, the relationship between mother and daughter is more polite than close.

Later, although Cao Yong was born again, and Changsheng was added many years later, the son is different from the daughter.

The son was quite well-behaved when he was young, but he no longer clings to his mother when he gets older.

Like Chuyu and Niuniu, named sister-in-law, love each other like a mother and daughter, whispering to each other, which made Li look envious.

Among the granddaughters, Tianhui was regarded as a sweetheart by Cao Yong and his wife because of her eye disease when she was young, and Li Shi, a grandmother, couldn't get close.

For Niu Niu, Li's early viewing was a bit complicated, and after more than ten years of getting along, she gradually became harmonious.

As for Li Xiangyu, another girl who once lived in Cao's house, because she didn't want her grandson and granddaughter to think that she favored her natal family, Li didn't get too close.

It would be great if the daughter-in-law would add another granddaughter to her. Li's heart moved, and she decided to ask people to donate more sesame oil money to the temple tomorrow, and beg for one and two in front of the Buddha...

At this time, Cao Yong was sitting in the study with a cup of hot tea in his hand, listening comfortably to the homework of several children in Cao Xiang's examination school.

The ages of Tianbao and Tianyu are listed here, but they are only enlightened, and the test is three hundred thousand.

For the homework of Changsheng and Tianyang, there are a few more questions.

Except for these little ones, Tianyou and Hang Seng were not left behind.In addition to the questions in the Four Books and Five Classics, Cao Xiang also quoted scriptures and asked several sample questions from miscellaneous books.

Tianyou dealt with it calmly, Zuo Cheng pondered for a long time, Zuo Zhu and Hang Seng were talking, and after a while, they were so anxious that they were sweating profusely.

For this test result, Cao Xiang was not satisfied, and only looked at Cao Yong with a frown.

Cao Yong understood what he meant, even if Zuo Zhu gave up the imperial examinations, Zuo Zhu and the rest of them were still young, when they were young and impulsive, they knew how to be polite when they read books, and they could even smooth out his Amen temper...
