Reborn in the last years of Kangxi

Chapter 596

On the first day of the first lunar month, Kangxi went to the hall to salute.After returning to the palace, after worshiping the gods, he led the kings, Baylor, Beizi, the public, ministers of the interior, academicians, guards, and the empress dowager's palace to salute.

Afterwards, the Grand Court Meeting in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Civil and military officials below the king, foreign vassal kings, and envoys, etc. came up to express their congratulations, and stopped the banquet.

On the same day, Chu Yu put on her formal attire and entered the palace to celebrate the New Year with the Queen Mother.

As a married woman and Mrs. Uncle, Mrs. Li should also be included in the congratulations in the palace.

Because of looking after Gu Changsheng, she was afraid of bringing pox into the palace, so Mrs. Li did not enter the palace, but let Chuyu bring New Year's filial piety into the palace.

Both the married woman and the married woman arrived at the Empress Dowager's Palace, and the Empress Dowager was also full of energy to accept everyone's greetings.

She didn't see Mrs. Li, so the queen mother asked Chu Yu specifically.

In the past six months, various rumors and gossips have been passed around, making everyone curious.

When the Queen Mother asked, many people raised their ears and listened carefully.

Concubine De and Concubine Yi were sitting on the twigs on the ground, but they were smiling as usual, there was nothing unusual about it.

The queen mother asked casually, but she didn't mention it, and went to talk to a few Fujins and wives who came out of Horqin, which disappointed everyone who listened.

After Chu Yu paid homage to the Empress Dowager, she first went to the aunt's side to pay her respects in a low voice, then nodded to Cao Jiashi and Cao Yi, and then retreated to the side.

Cao Jia's family and Cao Yi's are both present. Cao Yi is the heir-in-law of the old Duke, and his filial piety has not yet expired.However, Manchu customs are not as rigorous as Han customs. As a married woman, she also needs to go to the palace to congratulate her.

The ceremony that should be seen has been seen, and the wives are ordered to leave the palace one by one.

Seventh Fujin and Nala's family are going to pay respects to the head of the harem, and Seventh Prince's birth mother becomes a concubine.Chu Yu went out of the palace with Cao Jiashi and Cao Yi.

Longevity blooms, Cao Jiashi and Cao Yi are also anxious.

Asking about the situation of the youngest brother, knowing that the flowers have already come out and the fire is over, the two feel at ease.

According to the custom, the sixth day is the day when my aunt returns home.

The Cao Jia family was restricted by the rules and couldn't be at ease; on Cao Yi's side, he was thinking about his mother and had already decided to return home.

Besides, there is still Gao Taijun here this year, and those of them who are juniors also need to pay New Year's greetings.

On Cao Jia's side, they prepared generous gifts and sent them to Cao's mansion.

She also discussed with Chuyu that when there is a good theater troupe in the palace in the first month, someone will pick up Taijun Gao to listen to the opera for two days, so that the old man will be lively.

In the past six months, there has been a lot of rumors about Li's identity in Beijing, and Cao Jia's side has also had doubts.

But the more I think about it, the more confused I become. Although the Li family's dowry had some built-in things back then, it was rare, and there were few built-in things in the family?

As long as you have been working in the Ministry of Internal Affairs for a long time, these are not rare items.

If Mrs. Li was really the daughter of the eldest princess and her cousin today, she would not marry Baoyi Cao's family to fill the house.

As long as you often walk around in the palace, you will know that the empress dowager is like a child, with very willful likes and dislikes.If you want to see something, you really treat it like a sweetheart; if you don't want to see it, you won't be perfunctory, and you don't even look at it.

Cao Yi didn't care about these things, and even felt disgusted by these rumors.

In her eyes, Li's aunt and adoptive mother are like her biological mother.

Of course she wouldn't be happy if her mother became the gossip of other women.

Once, a female family member of a close branch of the Duke's mansion, out of curiosity, wanted to explore in front of Cao Yi.

Cao Yi immediately put down his expression and got up to see off the guests.

Since then, that close family member has never stepped into the Duke's mansion again, and has been blacklisted by the Duke's mansion.

At this point, all the people knew that Cao Yi, who was always smiling, had a fierce side.

The aunts and sisters-in-law went out of the palace gate and dispersed in sedan chairs.

On Cao Yong's side, they started socializing.

Please eat it from the House of Internal Affairs, please eat from the former colleagues of the Ministry of Household Affairs, the Ministry of War, and Taipu Temple, and please eat from the foreheads of other clans.For several days, Cao Yong was rushing to dinner.

Even if others have never been drinking too much, but after all, it is the first month, and everyone will inevitably exchange drinks.As a man, it's not easy to push it away, so I can only drink with him in moderation.

In addition to socializing with colleagues, it is also New Year greetings from relatives and family friends.

Speaking of it, it is so cumbersome. Obviously, the New Year's gift was given before next year, and there will be another New Year's greeting in the first month.Ordinary people, Cao Yong went to make a point by himself, and for those who were closer, Cao Yong had to take his two sons with him.

The two brothers, Tianyou and Hang Seng, were brand new from beginning to end.

Although there is a year difference between them, Hang Seng is strong and about the same height as his elder brother.Coupled with their similar clothes, they look like twins.

Because they were too young to ride a horse, the mansion prepared a carriage.

When the two of them were tired, they would sleep in the carriage, and get up again when they arrived at the people who needed New Year's greetings.

All kinds of purses, including small gold and silver locks.

The two brothers couldn't be happier, their little mouths became sweeter, and after a word of instruction, they kept saying "grandparents, uncles and uncles".

Cao Yong saw it beside him, but he couldn't help laughing.The son followed him and liked it.

However, they are also afraid that they will become snobbish and snobbish.Since years ago, the two brothers have been saving money, and they even know how to use the money from their praises to buy gifts for Chu Yu.

On the return trip, Cao Yong did not ride a horse, but got into a carriage and was with his sons.

As expected, in the carriage compartment, Tianyou and Hang Seng were sitting loosely, smiling and counting the little cats on the carpet.

"One, two, three..." As Tianyou counted, he used his little hand to put the counted zizi aside.

Hang Seng tilted his head and counted with Tianyou, but he forgot after counting two sentences.

Seeing Cao Yong coming in, the two children put away the smiles on their faces, and kowtowed to their father in a well-behaved manner.

"Do you still want to give it to Niu Niu?" Cao Yong asked, pointing to the golden scorpion on the carpet.

Hang Seng looked at his brother, just pursed his lips and smiled, and didn't respond.

Tianyou shook his head, and said: "No, Niuniu's has already been given away. These are reserved for the monk uncle to recite scriptures, so that the little uncle and cousin can get better sooner."

The two of them are now in Sunflower Courtyard, it seems that they are deeply influenced by Amethyst, and they even know such things as practicing rituals.

Bai Shan filial piety is the first, although the two brothers are a little greedy for money, but not to buy food toys for themselves, this is quite gratifying to Cao Yong.

He stretched out his hand to touch his sons, and asked, "Who said he wanted to do something? I told you to listen."

Tianyou and Hang Seng, you look at me, I look at you, but they both shut up.The small chest is straight, but the eyes are a little drifting.

Until Cao Yong said "Yes" and asked again, Tianyou blushed and said: "It's not what others said, it's what my sons think."

This is a lie. Although children may be well-intentioned, Cao Yong does not want them to develop bad habits when they are young.

Although I have no idea that my son must be successful and successful, but to be an upright and kind person is a basic requirement of a father for his sons.

It seems that in the future, we should spend more time with our sons in order to discover their potential.

Whether they are sensible or loyal, they all have the thoughtfulness and femininity of women.

Needless to say, Cao Yong is always busy; Cao Yin's side, since he entered Beijing, has also been busy with socializing and socializing, and seldom has the time to entertain his grandchildren.

Tianyou and Hangsheng are either in Lanyuan, Wutongyuan, or Kuiyuan, and occasionally go to Tian's courtyard.

The female relatives in the Piansheng Mansion are all submissive, and under the influence of what they hear and see, the boys are also a bit less masculine.

However, right now he doesn't want to preach on this matter too much, after the Lantern Festival, the master will enter the mansion.At that time, these two little guys can't be so naughty.

He also reminded himself to spend more time with his sons in the future.After two years, when they are older, they will be moved out of the inner house, so as not to get more fat and powdery.

While speaking, the carriage had already returned to Cao Mansion.directly into the yard.

Cao Yong gets off the car and asks someone to send Tianyou and Hang Seng to the second gate.

But the housekeeper came to report, the third girl and the third uncle came, and the uncle was talking with Cao Yin in the living room.

Before going out in the morning, Mrs. Li had already mentioned that Cao Yi and his wife would come back today, so Cao Yong came back early...
