Reborn in the last years of Kangxi

Chapter 1370
As Yaer talked about A into the teahouse, Cao Yong couldn't help but looked up to the sky.

Could it be that the sun came out from the west, and Yaerjiang came to the government office just to invite himself to "eat tea"?
Cao Yong knew that his wife had gone to Jane's palace to discuss what had been decided, so he guessed in his heart that [-]% of them were related to the two relatives.

Yaerjiang's complexion is really not good-looking. Could it be that the day of August [-] is rushed?
Until he was introduced into the elegant room by Dr. Tea, Cao Yong hesitated, whether his decision yesterday was inappropriate.

Everyone knows that Prince Jane and his wife love Liugege very much, but the Cao family said that if the appointment is delayed, it will be postponed, and the appointment will be delayed after a few days.

If it wasn't for the fact that Prince Jian's mansion is weak, Yaerjiang is out of tune, and Yongjia is an acquaintance, would he still make such a decision?
In his bones, isn't he snobbish and shallow?

Thinking of this, Cao Yong felt a little guilty, and when facing Yaerjiang Ah, he became more polite and respectful.

Yaerjiang sat down lazily, and signaled Cao Yong to sit down again, and when Dr. Tea served tea to the two, he waved the man away.

This teahouse is not far from the six government offices, the layout is very quiet, the price of a pot of tea is not cheap, and what it does is the business of court officials.

Therefore, when facing Cao Yong's crane supplement service, Dr. Cha was respectful, but also calmly dealt with it.

But if it goes on like this... Dr. Cha's footsteps are a bit hesitant...

Seeing this, Yarjan'a couldn't help but stare.

It was Cao Yong who had been here twice and knew the rules here. He took two pieces of silver from his purse and put them on the empty tea tray on the table.

Dr. Cha took the tray, thanked him, and withdrew.

Yarjan stared at the broken silver in the tea tray until Dr. Tea went out, looked down at himself, and his face darkened immediately.

What a shame, he didn't bring a purse.There was a piece of gold and ingots tucked around his waist, and just now he rewarded the little official casually.

Because he was bored in the back garden, he went straight out of the house. Except for the small gold ingot the size of a thumb, he not only didn't have a purse, he didn't even have a jade pendant or other small items.

Don't talk about rewards now, even tea money can't be settled.

Could it be that he is old and treats guests without bringing money? What is this called?
Yarjan's frown was so frown that it could kill a fly.

In Cao Yong's heart, there is really no bottom line.

For Liu Gege, his daughter-in-law, he was very happy in his heart.

Not on the side of Prince Jian's Mansion, but on Yongqing and Yongsheng.

The two brothers have known him for more than 20 years, and they are close friends, and they have long intended to marry.

Although Cao Yong didn't marry off his daughter, but he married Wanyan's niece as his daughter-in-law, which can be regarded as a formal marriage.

In addition, Wanyan Yongjia...an old acquaintance from a young age...only Liugege's daughter, she must be reluctant to marry far away.

If Yarjiangya accuses him of being contemptuous now, he really can't defend himself.

Yaerjiang looked at Cao Yong, and said impatiently: "Cao Yong, you and Ye Fujin's two natal brothers are good friends in the family. To be honest with you, how is Wanyan's family education?"

Cao Yong was taken aback by the question, what is this called?

What happened to Yongqing and Yongsheng's family?How do you get involved with tutoring?
Cao Yong's heart suddenly hung up.

Seeing that Cao Yong didn't speak, Yaerjiang thought that Cao Yong was hesitating, and gritted his teeth: "Even the holy grandfather couldn't find fault with Wanyan's family, so he would marry one of their two concubine daughters to the prince and the other to marry him." Refers to the marriage clan, does Master Cao disapprove of the Holy Patriarch's vision, but wants to say something about it?"

Seeing him annoyed, Cao Yong hurriedly said: "My lord misunderstood, I didn't mean that... It's just that the two Shan Yu brothers are close friends of the minister, and it's not appropriate for the minister to talk behind his back..."

Talking in his mouth, how much in his heart
Yaerjiang raised his eyebrows, and said: "It is said that things of a kind gather together and people are divided into groups. Since your two brothers and uncles are close friends, you must think that they are not good at character, right?"

Cao Yong listened, nodding and shaking his head.If you nod your head, it seems to be boasting; if you shake your head, it seems that you think Brother Yongqing is not good.

Seeing Cao Yong acquiescing, Yaerjiang showed a bit of color on his face, and said: "Since the two uncles and brothers are good, then the Fujin education of the master is naturally not to be chosen, is it?"

This time, Cao Yong wanted to keep his mouth shut and pretend to be dumb.

Yaerjiang is so outrageous, asking a man to comment on his Fujin, or his future in-laws, if it is accidentally spread, it will become a big joke.

But Yaerjiang's side didn't stop, he stared at Cao Yong and said, "Why don't you respond? Could it be that you don't agree with the words of the Lord?"

Cao Yong had no choice but to avoid the seriousness and said lightly: "What the prince said is that Wanyan's family's upbringing is indeed good..."

Yaerjiang's smile was restrained, his expression became extremely solemn, he stared at Cao Yong and said, "Liugege has been taught by Fujin for more than ten years, she is the most sensible and polite, she is the best girl in the world..."

Cao Yong could recognize what Yaerjiang said earlier, but after hearing this sentence, he immediately wanted to refute.

Liugege is the best, but what about Tiantian Hui?Ming Minghui is the best.

But looking at Yaerjiang's solemnity, Cao Yong seemed to understand his thoughts at once.

It is nothing more than the loving heart of parents towards their children.

Cao Yong nodded, and said without hesitation: "What the prince said is that it is the blessing of the little dog and the blessing of the Cao family to be able to marry Liu Gege..."

Yarjan Ah didn't say anything else, just sat quietly and drank a pot of tea.

When the teapot was upside down and no water dripped out, Cao Yong wanted to ask someone to add water.

Yaerjiang waved his hand and said: "The tea is almost eaten, so let's break up..."

In the end it was Cao Yong's account.

Cao Yong was in a daze until he returned to the Household Office.

It seems that Yaerjiang has said nothing, and it seems that he has said everything...

When Cao Yong came home from Luoya, Chu Yu had already received an accurate reply from Prince Jian's residence, confirming the appointment on August [-]th.

Even Hang Seng was brought back, and the whole family went to the Fuyuan Hall together to discuss the ceremony.

The betrothal gift has been prepared long ago, and according to the regulations that Cao Yong made when he went to Chunwang's mansion, the gift list is also ready-made.

Li's face was full of joy.

After the decision is made, it is time to prepare for the marriage, and the eldest grandson's daughter-in-law will enter the door.

Hang Seng and Tianhui all smiled and looked at Tianyou.

Although Tianyou had already started to take care of the housework, he really didn't intervene in the matter of the betrothal gift.The dowry gifts were prepared by Li's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, some were ready-made, and some were added successively over the past year. God Bless saw the gift list for the first time today.

When he saw that the dowry was 96, he frowned slightly, and said to the elders, "96, isn't it too ostentatious?"

After hearing this, Mrs. Li hesitated a little.

For officials in the capital, 24 and 36 are the most common dowries. Even if the other party is the palace, 64 is already a lot, but their own dowry is indeed more.

However, where can there be less?

Since Prince Jian's Mansion is married to Cao's family, shouldn't they inquire about the employment of Cao's family to Prince Chun's Mansion?

In terms of family status, the hereditary Prince Heshuojian's mansion is even more noble than the Chunjun Prince's mansion back then; the status of Liugege's descendants is also more noble than Chuyu.

Chu Yu also thought of this, shook his head and said, "Not much, there were only so many dowry gifts to the county prince's mansion back then, there is no reason why there are fewer betrothal gifts to the prince's mansion..."

Tianyou saw that both grandmother and mother wanted to follow the old rules, so he said to Cao Yong: "Father, it is different now... When my father was alone in Beijing, the holy grandfather took pity on him, and gave a lot of things to my father... The princes who were old with their father also added to the icing on the cake. There is also the second aunt and Prince Ping. I heard that they have prepared a lot of betrothal gifts for their father... Even if they are more ostentatious, others will see that it is just a gift from the Cao family. I am grateful for the marriage, all of you in Beijing have helped the Cao family with all your strength...now, it is different..."

Cao Yong also asked about the dowry gift once before, but he didn't ask again after hearing from his wife that it followed the old rules.

After listening to his son's words now, and thinking about it carefully, it is indeed a bit inappropriate.

He motioned for Tianyou to hand over the gift list, looked at it from the beginning to the end, and said: "Then carry it 64, there is no need to reduce the things, just tighten the box..."

After hearing this, Chu Yu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

She was really worried that her husband would reduce the betrothal gift, knowing that she would understand their prudence, but not knowing, she might think that her mother-in-law deliberately suppressed her daughter-in-law...

When there are only three days to prepare, there is another day for the Mid-Autumn Festival, which is a little more urgent.

Fortunately, the relevant wedding invitations, like the dowry gift, have been prepared.

During these three days, apart from notifying all the relatives and friends, he chose an auspicious day in October based on the six small days obtained from Prince Jian's Mansion.

There are also Prince Yu Guanglu and State Duke Sai Shitu, as big matchmakers, Cao Yong has to come forward to help.

Although there is no need to set up a wedding shed at home like a wedding, you still have to prepare a table to entertain relatives and friends.

Fortunately, when celebrating the ceremony, only close relatives and friends are invited, and there are no outsiders. Otherwise, it would be rude to post the post three days in advance.

Although Guanglu and Saishitu are Cao Yong's sister-in-law, but since they have become God Bless's big matchmakers, Cao Yong's brother-in-law is not easy to trust, and he needs to pay a personal visit, please.

On Chu Yu's side, they need to consider exchanging some dowry gifts.

The number of betrothal gifts is reduced, and the display needs to be more detailed, so that the Jian Palace can't pick it out.

Tianhui helped her mother cook the table.

Hang Seng wears a filial piety, so it's not easy to show his face, so he can only help with trivial matters behind the scenes.

Fortunately, there are Zuo Zhu and Wen Zhi, who got the news and came to help immediately, running errands and delivering letters, very hard.

In the rush of Cao's family, it finally came to August [-]th, and Cao's mansion paid respects to Prince Jian's mansion.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, with joy in their eyes.

However, as the invited relatives and friends came to the door one after another, the auspicious time was approaching, Cao Yong and Tianyou father and son looked at each other, and there was some worry in their eyebrows.

Hang Seng hasn't come yet.

How is this going?

With the relationship between Hang Seng and Cao's family, they will never feel that there is anything to hide when they come back.

Cao Yong was about to send someone to the county palace to have a look, when he saw China, the governor of the county palace, come over.

It is just that Hang Seng caught a cold last night, and he is not feeling well today, so he sent himself here to apologize, and he will come back tomorrow...
