Reborn in the last years of Kangxi

Chapter 1377 Nightshade Seeds

Yongjia is not smiling at all, but now he will frown and look more serious.

When Tianyou saw it, he was inevitably a little confused.Regarding the future father-in-law and mother-in-law in front of him, he was not so in awe of Yaerjiang, who was the prince of Heshuo, but more in awe of the taciturn Wanyan Fujin.

Even if you don't speak, just look at it lightly, it seems to be able to read people's hearts.

Regardless of whether it is the clan or the honorable family, how have there been fewer Ji Fujin and his wife?Which one is not carefully managed, but there are only a handful of people who can do Wanyan Fujin.

Others may have their natal family to help them, or have elder brothers by their side.

However, Wanyan's family began to decline within two years of Wanyan Fujin's marriage, and there was no hope at all, and there was only one child of his own.

Without a natal family to rely on, and no son to accompany him, Wanyan Fujin was able to do what Prince Fujin did so confidently, which had to be admired.

For this mother-in-law who is very different from the female elders in the family, apart from awe, Tianyou also has some admiration in his heart.

If grandma had Wanyan Fujin's tenacious and agile personality, she would share some of the burden for grandfather, and would it make him live longer?If the mother had Wanyan Fujin's temperament, would the father worry less?
Although these thoughts are somewhat disrespectful, Tianyou Xu is influenced by Niuniu and Tianhui, and doesn't like weak women very much.

Even though he knew in his heart that his grandmother was really weak and his mother was only weak in front of his father and family.

Because of paying attention to Yongjia's expression, Tianyou finished talking about the county prince's mansion, and without waiting for Yaerjiang'a to open his mouth, he took the initiative to say to Wanyan's family: "Listen to the prince, Fujin summoned the younger generation, but what are your orders?"

When Yongjia heard the words, she was surprised in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face, she just looked at Yaerjiang.

Yaerjiang's eyes widened, and then he remembered the excuse he had just pulled Tianyou out, coughed twice, and said: "Yes, what does Fujin want to do with this kid?"

With his back to Tianyou, he winked at his wife vigorously, for fear that she would expose his lies and make him lose face in front of his son-in-law.

Seeing this, Yongjia couldn't laugh or cry, and said: "I heard that your family is not peaceful, and I haven't seen you in the past few days. The prince and I are somewhat worried. We must see you with our own eyes... If you have time , just sit with the prince...there are a lot of things outside these few days, the prince is very worried about you..."

Since the person in front of him is her son-in-law, he is not an outsider, so there is no need to talk about what is not there as an excuse.

What's more, Yongjia has a delicate mind, and somewhat realizes that Tianyou is more than respectful to her father-in-law Taishan, but not close enough.

Just for the sake of Liugege, Yongjia is of course willing to get closer to the palace with Tianyou.

Wanyan Yongjia's words were plain, but Tianyou felt warm in his heart.

He thought of the sentence Yaerjiang'a said just outside the living room of Cao's mansion, which was full of protection, and he understood it in his heart, and looked at Yaerjiang'a with emotion.

After being told by his wife, Yaerjiang was very uncomfortable, and he couldn't help it. He complained: "Your father is too partial, even if the eldest son is stricter, it shouldn't be so... Now the Mid-Autumn Festival has passed, and the autumn is frosty." Heavy, how can it be fun? Do you have to torture you to get sick in order to survive?"

This is not easy for Tianyou to answer.

The news conveyed in it also made Tianyou murmur in his heart.

Seeing her husband talking wantonly, Yongjia was really annoyed.

Even if it is the biological father and son, the relationship has to be maintained and cultivated, not to mention that the Weng and the son-in-law are not their own flesh and blood.

Yaerjiang not only picked on his father face to face, but also revealed the details of his spying on Cao's mansion.

Although Tianyou was noncommittal, he could still sense the meaning of protection in Yaerjiang's words, and he only listened to what he wanted to hear, and said: "It is indeed the junior, isn't it..." At this point, he hesitated, lowered his eyes and said: "Then Later, because I thought about the next day's decision, I felt happier, so I took my second brother to get drunk..."

Such rhetoric, coupled with a slightly shy and uneasy demeanor, greatly pleased Yaerjiang.

He laughed "haha" and said: "People are refreshed on happy occasions, this is a bit like Grandpa... If Grandpa is happy, he is willing to eat two more cups..."

The aloof Prince Heshuo actually showed such a naive attitude, Tianyou couldn't help but smile, and most of the estrangement in his heart about the future father-in-law disappeared immediately.

Seeing this, Yongjia breathed a sigh of relief.

Originally, when she heard that it was Tianyou who took the initiative to take her brother to drink, she was still a little puzzled.

After all, in addition to "people feel refreshed on happy occasions", there is also the phrase "borrowing wine to relieve sorrow".

Seeing Tianyou's appearance, it doesn't seem like he has any resistance to this marriage, and he also accepts the closeness here.

At such a young age, he leads people with tolerance and generosity, which is almost the same as that of Cao Yong when he was young. He really complied with the saying "Like a father, like a son"...

Although there was a lot of fun in the hall, Tianyou was worried about the family, so he politely declined the kindness of his future father-in-law and did not stay here for dinner.

After all, he was brought here directly by Yaerjiang A, and he stayed without telling his parents, and he will think about it over there.

However, when he saw Yaerjiang Ala's face down, Tianyou took the initiative to mention several jars of old wine in the cellar at home. If the prince is free, he will come back from duty in the palace tomorrow afternoon and come to drink with Yaerjiang Ala.

Only then did Yaerjiang's face relax, and he said, "Okay, okay, since that's the case, then I'll wait for your good wine!"

Tianyou is a junior, so there is no need for Yaerjiang Ah to see him off in person.

Seeing him get up to leave, Yaerjiang called someone and ordered Tianyou to be sent out of the mansion.

It was only a few days before Tianyou came to make a decision, and the servants of the palace knew that this was the son-in-law of Prince Fujin, bowed his body, and sent him out with a bit of flattery...

After a while, Yong Jiafang asked: "Didn't the master go to visit the sick, why did he call someone for my concubine?"

Yaerjiang A sneered and said: "Where the words are rushing to talk, use Fujin as a cover, Fujin don't be angry..." He said, with anger: "I really don't like it, Cao Yong ordered our six foreheads to humiliate you three times and four times. Yanhuang's apologetic appearance... I don't believe it, he really can treat his adopted son more seriously than his eldest son. It's just that he is afraid of getting a reputation for being lax in discipline, so he pushes the sixth son-in-law to top the vat..."

Yongjia shook his head, and said: "Didn't the Lord say last month that Mr. Cao is a solid person and doesn't take outsiders' compliments to heart..."

Yaerjiang couldn't help being dumb, he hesitated for a while and said: "Could it be that the six foreheads were too happy for a while and forgot the importance? Looking at his usual stable appearance, he doesn't look like this..."

He was really full of doubts and inexplicable, he thought in his heart that tomorrow he would drink with his forehead, so he must ask the truth...

When Tianyou returned to his gate, Cao Yong happened to send Yanhuang out.

Tianyou had to follow behind his father, watching Yanhuang ride away on horseback.

The father and son turned back to the mansion, Cao Yong asked: "Why did Prince Jian Fujin seek you?"

"Hearing the wind outside, I was a little worried, so I called my son over to ask about it..." Tianyou replied honestly.

Cao Yong nodded and said: "It's normal to be worried. You and Liu Gege will postpone the date. If the wedding is delayed, it will be bad... There are too many things at home this year. I only hope that my wife will come in soon... Your mother has worked hard for many years, so she should take a rest and enjoy the blessings of her son and daughter-in-law..."

After hearing this, Tianyou felt a little sore in his heart, and said, "Mother has been too tired for the past two years, should I ask the imperial physician to prescribe two more prescriptions to make up for it..."

Cao Yong thought for a while and said: "The medicine is three-point poisonous. Can you not take medicine or not take medicine... When the matter of your brother and sister's marriage is over, let your mother have a good rest... As for your seventh uncle... , can delay for a few more years..."

After saying this, the father and son entered the inner house.

At the gate of Jiuru Courtyard, Cao Yong stopped and whispered a few words to Tianyou.

In the yard, Cao Yong went directly to the upper room, while Tianyou went to the west wing room.

Hang Seng was sitting on the Kang, looking towards the window in a daze.

Tianyou followed his gaze and saw only the windows of the East Wing through the glass window. He couldn't help asking curiously, "What are you looking at?"

Only then did Hang Seng wake up, and was about to turn over and get off the kang, but was held down by Tianyou.

When he was young, he liked to dance with guns and clubs, and his body was always strong. Even though he was seriously ill that day, his fever has subsided, and after these few days of recuperation, his condition has mostly recovered.

It was just the first murder, and Hang Seng felt uneasy after all, and couldn't sleep well at night, the circles under his eyes were black and blue, and he looked sluggish and haggard.

Coupled with the youthful enthusiasm, Ben has a bit of curiosity and longing for the bed, and only because of his cleanliness, he did not try it lightly.

This is the first time in a humiliating situation. Would it be strange if there was no shadow left in my heart?
Tianyou knows his nature best, how can he not understand his knot?

Hearing Tianyou's question, Hang Seng shook his head and said: "I didn't look at anything, I just wondered if I should move it out...Yesterday, Lord Zhuang came, and today Prince Xian is here, and I don't know who will come tomorrow. Those who come and go are, in the end, their fathers and mothers." Yard, too cheap..."

Tianyou nodded and said, "It's a bit inconvenient, so just move it out..."

When Hang Seng heard this, his heart tightened.

Although he didn't want to disturb the peace of his adoptive father and mother, he didn't want to move out of Cao's mansion just now; he finally moved back to live with the excuse of recuperation, and he sincerely hoped to stay longer.

Then I heard Tianyou continue to say: "It's better to move back to your yard. It's the second entrance on the East Road, just behind Qishu's yard... the other day my father sent me back to clean up your house. I just want you to live there more cheaply. As a result, parents feel sorry for you, and put you in this yard like a child..."

"My... yard..." Hang Seng murmured, "How could there be my yard?"

"Huh?" Tianyou looked at him puzzled and said, "I told you on the day of the housewarming, why didn't you remember... just because Yuan Song was there, so it's hard to say so carefully..."

Hang Seng smiled and said, "I was busy with many things that day, my brother didn't pay attention..."

Tianyou said: "It is roughly arranged according to your original yard, but my father said that we are young and don't think as much as old ladies and wives, and the furniture and furnishings have been replaced with new ones..."

Hang Seng was overjoyed in his heart, but after thinking about it, he still felt a bit reluctant, and said, "Brother, why don't I stay in my parents' yard for a few more days...how about going over there to receive foreign guests only when there are foreign guests?"

Seeing that his eyes were bright, without the confusion just now, Tianyou smiled and said: "It's up to you... Actually, there is no need to go through such troubles. Those who can enter the hall are mostly not outsiders, come here and come here..."

Hang Seng thought for a while, then shook his head and said: "No, I have to bother my wife when I meet guests here..."

In fact, Chu Yu's seniority in the clan is low, so it's hard to avoid seeing her, and most likely she has to take the initiative to say hello to her.

Tianyou pondered for a while, and it was also the same reason, and said: "Then I will clean up that side, if you want to live on both sides, you can live on both sides..." While speaking, his eyes fell on Hang Seng's blue eyes, and said: "While the second brother Now, I'll come here too, to enjoy the glory of my second brother, and spend a few days under the eyes of the master and wife..."

While talking, he heard footsteps in the yard.

Looking through the glass window, it turned out to be Chang Sheng and Tian Bao's uncle and nephew.

When they saw Tianyou standing in front of the window, they both smiled, but they didn't come to the west wing, but went to the upper room.

After half a cup of tea, I saw two uncles and nephews coming out of the upper room.

Changsheng was empty-handed, while Tianbao was holding a white agate bowl with a lid.

"Second Brother, Seventh Uncle and I have brought you some good things..." Tianbao's voice was a little cheerful.

Tianyou and Hang Seng saw Changsheng first, and then their eyes fell on the bowl held by Tianbao.

Tianbao took a bit of pride, stepped forward a few steps, put the agate bowl on the edge of the kang, lifted the lid and said, "Second brother, look..."

"This is?" Looking at the small grape-like thing inside, Hang Seng asked curiously, seeing it for the first time.

Tianbao straightened his chest, and said: "This is Tiantian, which grows in the garden. Uncle Qi and I picked it up personally. It's just for the eldest brother and the second brother to taste..."

Hang Seng was curious, took a grain and looked at it every day, Tianyou remembered something, said: "Uncle Qi, did you pick it from the northeast corner of the garden?"

Changsheng nodded, and said: "That's where... Tianbao and I were careful, and the branches and leaves were not damaged..."

Hang Seng was listening, and asked Tianyou, "Is it the master's new plant?"

Tianyou said: "It's not specially planted, but the master saw it in the garden, so he asked people to move it to a shady and cool place, and asked people to take care of it... That thing is called nightshade, and the branches and leaves are dried for medicine. Old ladies and wives use it Had nightshade soup..."

Since it is a medicine, what does the nightshade seed taste like?
Hang Seng felt his mouth astringent, but Tianbao raised his neck and looked at Hang Seng expectantly.

Holding the agate bowl, Hang Seng glanced at Tianyou who was next to him. He finally couldn't bear to let his elder brother try it, so he gritted his teeth, grabbed a few grains and threw them in his mouth.

Tianbao smiled and said: "Is it fragrant and sweet? No one else knows, but I just picked it up and ate it like grapes..."

Hearing these words, both Changsheng and Tianyou changed their expressions.

Chang Sheng frowned and said, "Didn't you say that your father allowed you to eat it?"

Tianyou looked at Tianbao with disapproval.

Tianbao said anxiously: "I ate that day, but my father saw me and didn't stop me. He just said that I had to be washed first, and told me not to eat too much..."

Changsheng and Tianyou breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing Hang Seng was puzzled, Tianyou said: "It is recorded in medical books that nightshade seeds are cold in nature, slightly sweet, and have the effect of clearing away heat and detoxification, but they are slightly poisonous, so they should not be used more..."

Hang Seng recalled his own experience, looked at the black nightshade seeds, he couldn't help feeling scared, and blamed Tianbao: "Fifth brother is getting more and more courageous, even dare to put unfamiliar things into his mouth..."
