Reborn in the last years of Kangxi

Chapter 83 Sisters
Cao Yong just listened to Bao Ya's words that he wanted to come here often. The palace has its own rules. Even if there is no elder control, it is not possible for a princess to stroll outside every day.

Seeing Cao Yong smiling and not answering, Bao Ya knew that he didn't take it seriously, so she didn't say much, instead she looked at Cao Yi and said, "Third sister looks very similar to sister-in-law, no wonder she is the same mother and sister!" Speaking of this, some felt that something was wrong, turned his head to Cao Yong and said: "Cao Yong, you are fifteen, and the third sister is also fifteen, so you are twins?" After asking the words, he shook his head: "No, no, just now I I asked the third sister, she was born in the twelfth lunar month, half a year younger than Cao Yong!"

Cao Yong didn't expect Bao Ya to ask this question suddenly, and he didn't know how to answer it for a while.Cao Yi's face became even paler, and the hands holding the chess pieces began to tremble slightly.

Seeing that the two brothers and sisters were silent, Bao Ya still didn't know what she said wrongly, so she still asked with doubts: "If it's not twins, then what's going on?"

The atmosphere in the room was a bit depressing. Seeing her sister's complexion, Cao Yong was a little annoyed by this unrestrained little princess, but she knew that Xiaobai had always been careless, and she would not even think of what was wrong with her if you blamed her.

Cao Yi glanced at his elder brother, then at Bao Ya who was at a loss, and suddenly showed a very faint smile, and said seriously: "I am a second-bedroom concubine, and my biological mother left early, so my mother took me to the university. I was brought up by Fang, and I am not twins with my elder brother."

Cao Yi's words hit Cao Yong's heart like a big hammer - how could this girl know this? !When did she know the truth...? !

How could Baoya care about the birth of a concubine? He just heard Cao Yi say that his biological mother died early, which aroused a bit of sympathy.She took two steps forward, held Cao Yi's hand, and said with apologetic face, "I'm really sorry for reminding my sister of something sad! My mother-in-law left early too, and we are all children without mother's love, so pitiful." !” While speaking, the circles of his eyes were already red.

For more than a month, Cao Yi was no longer used to being so close to outsiders, and when his hands trembled, he was about to pull them out, but seeing Bao Ya's appearance of crying, he couldn't help but relax his nerves again, and let her hold hands, but he didn't Agreeing with her words, she turned her face slightly and said in a low voice: "I'm not pitiful, my mother and elder brother love me!"

Baoya listened, nodded abruptly, and smiled brightly: "The third sister is absolutely right! It was Baoya who made a slip of the tongue. Baoya is not that poor person——Ama loved me the most before she was alive. In this year, I also have a good brother and sister-in-law who loves me!"

Seeing Baoya smiling and crying, Cao Yi's heart softened, and he silently took out a handkerchief from his cuff, and wiped it lightly for her.

Cao Yong was full of questions, but because he couldn't ask in front of Bao Ya, he had to suppress it.

There were chaotic footsteps outside the house, and hearing voices, it was Amethyst who had returned.

Accompanying Zijing into the house was Baoya's maid, Lingque. She was born in the capital and grew up in the palace. She also had some knowledge of the clothing materials popular among ladies in the capital, so she was invited by Zijing to help.

Seeing Cao Yong, Lingque leaned down and said, "Master Yong!" After getting up, she found that there were tears on Baoya's face. She didn't know what the master did, and she wanted to persuade her but couldn't say anything, so she stood behind the master and remained silent. In his mouth, he didn't dare to look at Cao Yong anymore.

Just now Bao Ya was crying because she thought of Ama Erniang, and now she was overexerted and a little embarrassed, rubbed her eyes, said a few polite words to Cao Yong brothers and sisters, then got up to say goodbye and leave.

Cao Yi sent Baoya to the second gate according to the rules, and Baoya smiled and said that he would come again next time, and Fang left.Looking at Baoya's lonely and stubborn back, Cao Yi seemed to be thinking, and stood there silently for a long time, until Zijing softly coaxed her to go back, and then moved back to the room.

*
When Cao Yong came back from seeing off the guests, he saw Cao Yi leaning on the kang, holding his jade pendant in his hand, rubbing his jade pendant over and over again, only bowed his head and did not speak.

Cao Yong hesitated again and again, but still asked: "Ping'er, where did you hear about the second room that you just said?"

Cao Yi remained silent for a long time, then raised his head after a long time, and said speciously, "Brother, I'm hungry!"

Cao Song also happened to go back to the yard to change clothes, and when he heard Cao Yi's words, he said, "I'm hungry too!"

After Cao Song entered the mansion, he lived in Huaiyuan next door to Cao Yong. Because he was still young and didn't have so many taboos, he ate in Cao Yong's courtyard.

Cao Song sat down and said regretfully: "Originally Brother Balu was persuaded by me and agreed to stay at our house for dinner. After dinner, he could try his skills with me. He didn't want to go back because he didn't want to be so awkward. Brother Balu followed me back!" Then he became a little annoyed, "That stinky girl is really annoying, I'm not a woman, what kind of skin do you want!"

Cao Yong couldn't help smiling.

Just now Bao Ya met Cao Song in the front hall, and after knowing that he was Cao Yong's brother, she blurted out: "You are not as good-looking as your brother!"

Because Cao Yong met Bao Ya for the first time, Bao Ya also praised him for his good looks, thinking that the little girl only paid attention to these things, so she just laughed it off.

Cao Song was so angry that his face was blue, and he clenched his fists tightly, but because of the rules, and seeing that the other party was a little girl, it was not easy to collide.

He regards himself as a hero, a good player in boxing and kicking, but now he is being teased by a little girl to talk about his appearance, so he is naturally depressed. The last two sentences.

Cao Yi didn't pay attention to what they said, because he saw a shiny object hanging under Cao Song's belt, he couldn't help but take a second look.

Cao Song scolded angrily, and found that his sister was staring at the Mongolian knife that he just got from Suhebalu on his waist, took it off quickly, and handed it over with both hands: "Third sister, look, this is a real Mongolian sword." The knife, brother Balu gave it to me!"

Cao Yi took it, and tilted his head to look carefully at the decorative objects on it.

"Third Sister, isn't this treasure very good?" Cao Song asked with bright eyes, "Can I pass it on to you? Look, the small stones on it are bright enough!"

Cao Yi looked at Cao Song's serious face, smiled slightly, shook his head, and handed the Mongolian knife back: "You can only use it if you practice martial arts, so how can I use it?"

In the past half a month, Cao Song can count the number of times she has listened to her on one hand, and the total number of words is not as many as this sentence. Because he thinks she is well, he can't help being overjoyed, and he doesn't take it back, so happy Said: "Peel an apple, eat a pear, and occasionally want to do it yourself, isn't it good to use this? Also, my brother said, someday I will make us the roast leg of lamb on the grassland, use this to cut and eat Shouldn't it be inappropriate!"

Cao Yi saw that Cao Song didn't accept it, so he put the Mongolian knife on the table in front of him: "It was given to you by someone else, so it's not appropriate to pass it on to me like this!"

Cao Song hurriedly waved his hand, and pushed the knife over again: "It's okay, brother Balu is the most forthright, and he is not the kind of stingy person."

Seeing Cao Song's anxious look, Cao Yi said, "Then I won't accept this, it's too big. If you really want to give it to me, someday my second brother can buy me a small one from outside!"

Cao Song also played with Cao Yi since he was a child, and they have a good relationship. These days, because of his parents, he is always afraid that Cao Yi will not even like himself, so he wants to give her this Mongolian knife to make her happy. Seeing her now He treated himself as usual, so he relaxed, and said something else cheerfully. For a while, he didn't think about why Cao Yi's spirit was better.

After dinner, when Cao Yong mentioned the second room with Cao Yi again, she still avoided it vaguely.Cao Yong saw that she didn't want to mention this topic, so she had to suppress her doubts in her heart.

In the early morning of the next day, King Fujin of Pingjun sent someone to Cao's mansion and took his younger brothers and sisters over.Because of Cao Yi's weak body, Fujin left her in the palace to take care of her, but Cao Yi politely rejected her—Fujin was not confinement yet, and everything was inconvenient.

Cao Yong's leave in the study room was only two days, and after the end of the leave, he began to live a two-point and one-line life.He originally wanted to write another booklet to ask for leave, but the procedures involved were complicated. Seeing that Cao Yi was getting better day by day after returning from Prince Ping's Mansion, and his face was also brighter, he was relieved, and only some confusion.

In the end, Cao Yong couldn't help it, so he went to Pingjun Wangfu after school one day, visited his sister, and asked her how to cure Cao Yi's heart disease.

Cao Jia was amazed when she heard her younger brother's questioning. It turned out that she had received a letter from Cao's mansion, and she only knew that Cao Yi was in poor health, but didn't know anything else was wrong.When Baoya came back that day, she only said that Third Sister's body was very thin, nothing else.

When Cao Yi came to pick her up, she saw that her expression was in a trance, Cao Jia thought that Cao Yi was just depressed because of Cao Shun's incident, so she couldn't help explaining it again.No one would have thought that a little Jingba could cause such a catastrophe. Fate is impermanent, so how can it be blamed on others?If it is not a dead-brained thought that it is a human sin, it is also Cao Yong's fault.Who asked him to give his sister something wrong, but this puppy!Then he said a few words to Cao Yi with a little blame, for making himself so haggard, I really feel sorry for my mother and Cao Yong.When something like this happened at home, when the daughter should comfort her parents, how could she let herself fall ill and make her parents worry?Tell her Cao Yong's hard work in the capital, let her cheer up and get better soon, don't let her brother worry about it.

In the next half day, Bao Ya took Cao Yi to play chess in her yard.As for the private conversation between the two of them, Cao Jia did not know.

After listening to what his sister said, Cao Yong vaguely understood what was going on.

Cao Yi was very anxious at first, afraid that her family would blame her for what happened to Cao Shun, but now that everyone treats her as usual, she feels more at ease.This little guy must be reflecting on himself again, thinking that he shouldn't be depressed, making his mother sad and his brother worrying.She is such a kind and considerate girl with a soft heart.

As she said a few days ago, Baoya visited frequently, and often took Cao Yi and Cao Song to wander around the capital.When encountering a good restaurant, everyone eats directly outside.Cao Song was a little dissatisfied with Baoya because Baoya picked his appearance, but later saw that Baoya was also a cool person, so he didn't care.He's quite at ease now - he didn't go to class until the first ten days of November, so he's free right now.

Although there are royal guards around Bao Ya, Cao Yong doesn't expect them to have any good skills.What they rely on is nothing more than the identity of the palace. If they encounter unscrupulous street hooligans, they may not be able to protect everyone well.Just in case, Cao Yong asked the Wei brothers to temporarily escort his younger siblings to travel.

After half a month, Cao Yi's complexion turned rosy, and his body was no longer so thin.Cao Yong looked at it, and couldn't help but want to check whether the food in the mansion is not as good as outside. He mentioned it to Zijing in private as a joke, but Zijing couldn't laugh or cry, and only said that Li Ji said "the heart is wide and the body is fat" , the ancients did not deceive me sincerely.

If life is always peaceful, there will be no so-called stories, and the peace will be broken one day.

One day, after Cao Yong left school, he saw Xiao Man, who was full of anxiety, come up to him as soon as he left Donghua Gate: "Master, it's not good, the third lady and the second master have been attacked!"
