Reborn in the last years of Kangxi

Chapter 974 "Hilarious"

If it is the sixteenth day, Cao Yong is not sure whether it will be possible to make the trip; if it is the sixth day, it is really urgent.

After all, it was a major event in Jiang Jian's life, Cao Yong didn't want to push it too far, so he said: "It's also good in the middle of the month, let Wu Sheng arrange the trivial matters such as banquets and sedan chairs, and you just wait to be the groom's official."

Jiang Jian has been in Cao's mansion for several years, but he is also different from Cao Yong's heretics. He bowed and clasped his fists and said: "In this case, the student thanked the adults."

Cao Fu was at the side, seeing that the date was almost fixed, he said with a smile: "Mr. Jiang has set a wedding date, but before the bridal chamber, there will be a meal of wine, but you have to eat. Otherwise, you will be timid when the time comes, and the bride will not follow you carefully. "

Seeing his strange smile, Jiang Jian raised his eyebrows, and while his mind was turning, he already understood what Cao Fu was referring to.

He has always been pure-hearted and ascetic, and he is very indifferent to the matter of men and women, because he is embarrassed to marry a young wife; he has never paid attention to other women, and when Cao Fu mentioned this, he was neither ashamed nor annoyed , replied with a smile: "The fifth master is an official, even if the students want to drink, they don't dare to be the fifth master's company. The fifth master wants red sleeves, don't use the students as rafts, the students can't afford it."

"Okay, old Jiang, is this an opening, isn't it? It's not kind to throw the master aside before it's time to get serious." Cao Fu snorted when he saw that he was teasing himself in turn. road.

Several people were talking, when Cao Yuan came in and said, "Master, the sixteenth master and the seventeenth master are here."

After hearing this, all the people got up and went out to meet them.

Just a few steps out of the hall door, I saw the sixteenth elder brother and the seventeenth elder brother turning around the screen wall.

This has seen each other, and then Cao Yong welcomed the two into the living room.

Cao Yong glanced at the clock, it was not yet time: "The two masters came out without waiting for the feast at the fourth master's house?"

Elder Sixteen nodded and said: "You came out early, you didn't watch it, the commotion over there was raging, even if the banquet was held, people might not be able to eat it. Brother Seventeen and I made an excuse to go out of the city to Nanyuan, I avoided it first, and I couldn’t go out of the city hungry, so I came to you for a meal.”

Cao Fu and Jiang Jian were curious after hearing this.The fourth elder brother has always spoken and laughed freely, and is known as the "cold-faced prince". Who would have the courage to go to his house to make trouble?
Cao Yong paid his respects to his birthday in the morning, and when he came back, he happened to see Long Kedo, and he probably felt that Li Si'er was causing the commotion in his heart.

"It just happened that there were fresh vegetables sent by Changping Zhuangzi. I remember that the sixteenth master likes choy sum the most, and the seventeenth master likes radish sprouts. I asked someone to order the kitchen to add these two dishes." Cao Yong said.

Brother Sixteen saw that Cao Yong had diverted his conversation, glanced at him, and said: "Looking at Fu Ruo's appearance, I probably guess why it's so lively?"

Cao Yong smiled wryly and said: "When I came back, I happened to meet the carriage of Tong Mansion. Lord Long wanted me to visit my family members, so it was very difficult for me to get out."

Brother Sixteen heard this, frowned and said: "Looking at him, he usually understands, why did he get confused with this woman? Fortunately, you pushed, otherwise, maybe someone will take their anger on you."

Cao Yong thought to himself that the princes and grandsons who could go to the palace to pay their respects were all the juniors of Longkodo.If the seniority is orderly, no one will risk the reputation of disobeying the respected relatives and head-to-head with Longkodo.

Among the other clan kings, only Prince Zhuang and Prince Jian have the highest status. One of these two loves money, the other is lustful, and they may not have the leisure to care about Longkodo's family affairs.

After all, if there is a dispute, it is still in the inner court.

Si Fujin's temperament is notoriously generous, and the fourth elder brother regards Longkoduo as his uncle. Even if Sifujin despises Li Si'er, he will not touch Longkoduo's inverse scales. face.

With her in front, the other female family members of the palace have no room to speak; the one who is going to make a fuss must be a female guest who is going to celebrate her birthday.

"Which Fujin couldn't bear the attack?" Cao Yong asked.

Elder Sixteen replied: "Don't bother about Longkodo's face, and don't be afraid of the blame from the fourth brother. Besides the eighth sister-in-law, who else? I have always admired her. She said one thing and said another, and she was free. Li The fourth son was scolded and cried, and threw himself in front of Longkodo to die and live. Look at his face."

Speaking of this, he paused: "I just didn't expect that Prince Jane Fujin, who is usually not well-known, is also a rigid woman. Hearing that Li Si'er went there, the fourth sister-in-law had no choice but to arrange her under Prince Jane Fujin. Prince Jian Fujin immediately got up and left the table, and moved to other seats. Li Si'er couldn't get his face down, and his mouth was a little out of tune. The eighth sister-in-law was annoyed, so she pointed at her nose and scolded her severely This Li Si'er complained to Longkoduo crying. Longkoduo couldn't see the two Fujins, so he confronted Prince Jane. Who is Yaerjiang? It's just that everyone looks good, so they deal with Longkoduo In a word, how can he be allowed to push his nose in the face? If it is not for the sake of the fourth brother, I am afraid that he will turn his face on the spot. "

"Prince Jian Fujin, is Brother Yongqing's younger sister and third sister's old friend?" Cao Fu asked in a low voice.

Cao Yong nodded, and the shadow of Yongjia appeared in front of his eyes.

That is indeed a woman full of arrogance in her bones. It seems that the ten years of living in the palace have not damaged this woman's pride...

Prince Yong's Mansion, inner courtyard, flower hall.

Holding the teacup, Yongjia looked at the light yellow tea soup inside and smelled the refreshing tea fragrance, his expression was very peaceful.

Fourteen Fujin stared at her for a while, then lowered his volume, and asked, "Why bother with her? Just pretend you didn't see her. What kind of identity is my sister, what is her identity? If you get mixed up, you will lose it." Honorable."

Yongjia's expression remained unchanged, and said: "The taste is too strong."

Fourteen Fujin was confused by this nonsense sentence, and Ba Fujin was beside him, already covering his mouth with a handkerchief, and laughed out loud: "Yongjia is right, that Li Sier, I am afraid that others will smell it." Her cheap smell, I don't know how much powder has been applied, is enough to suffocate people."

Yongjia put down the teacup and didn't answer.

A few other female members of the clan followed the Eight Fujin to find fault with Li Si'er.

Most of them passed the draft and pointed to the clan to be their regular wives.Those who have sons-in-law are okay, but they are more stubborn in the inner house; those who don't have sons-in-law, they have to get angry with the concubine's room.

Longkodo's first wife, Hesheli, died for no apparent reason. Li Si'er was just a lowly concubine who was born as a maidservant. Who could look down on her?
With Ba Fujin taking the lead, everyone laughed and felt much happier.

In addition to these four sons, before being with Longkodo, he had served other men, taking up the word "prostitution", and these noble ladies were even more shameless.

The words became more and more ugly, not only Yongjia frowned, but even the cheerful Bafujin couldn't stand it anymore, and said: "Okay, let's talk about what she is doing, so I don't have to dirty everyone's mouths! I haven't touched a domino for a long time Yes, today I’m thinking about everyone’s pockets.”

While talking, Sifujin sent Li Sier away to turn around.

Seeing that everyone was chatting and laughing, and not embarrassed by the dispute not long ago, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile on her face: "The eighth brother and sister are addicted to cards, the big guys just wait to win money, she is famous. Wealth boy."

Ba Fujin said coquettishly: "Okay, Sisao is here to plot against me too! I was hoping to take advantage of Sisao's blessing to win a few cosmetic money, but Sisao took me as a favor."

The two mansions are separated by a street, and the sister-in-law has always been a little closer than others.

Seeing that Bafujin was showing her little girlishness, Sifujin stepped forward, supported her by the shoulder and said, "Okay, my son, I love you. Let's go to the feast first, and I'll ask someone to give you money in a while. You won." It counts as the eighth sibling, and if you lose, it counts as mine."

No one asked Li Si'er how he was, as if this person had never been here, he went to the table with a smile...

Outside Prince Yong's mansion, Tong's carriage gradually drifted away.

The rouge on Li Si'er's face was washed out of shape by tears, and he looked very messy.

Long Kedo was worried about his concubine, and got into a carriage with her. Seeing her crying, he felt his heart burning.Thinking of Prince Jane's unfaltering look, and the half-smile expressions of the other princes, he felt monstrous anger.

"Si'er, you have been wronged!" He suppressed his anger and comforted Li Si'er in a low voice.

Li Si'er raised his head, choked with sobs and said: "It's all about the concubine's poor background, her humble background, making people look down on her, and embarrassing the master."

Long Kedo shook his head and said: "I don't do your business, it's because of my husband that I hurt you. In the early years, I used to protect the eighth elder brother, but later I didn't participate in these matters of taking the heirloom. The eighth Fujin was jealous of me, so it happened to you Head. Stop crying."

In the past two years, Li Si'er has regarded himself as a wife, and is also ostentatious, but most of them are in the uncle's house.Today, in front of these Fujins and wives, she realized that even with the name of the uncle's mansion, others look down on her.

Thinking of this, she lost interest, and said with tears: "I didn't have a good baby, so I can't add color to the master. I'm just a girl, and it's my luck that the master can tolerate me; if I can't tolerate me, I will do it for the master." Old lady, it’s just that Yuzhu and his brother and sister will be tolerated by the rich and powerful because of me.”

For this beloved concubine, it was not easy to get it, but Longko took it from Yue's family through various means.From the day you get it, it is regarded as a treasure, and you will not get tired of it for 20 years in a blink of an eye.

Apart from Si'er's astonishing beauty, it was this watery temperament that held Long Kedo in check.

Long Keduo held her in his arms and said: "What are you talking about? What kind of girl is not a girl? You are the wife of the master, and I have invited you all, but Nanyuan is busy with errands these days. Don't care about the Ministry of Rites to take care of it. Don't worry, I will definitely not miss your banquet on the fifth day of the new year. When you see it, who dares to underestimate you and see if the master doesn't deal with him!"

Li Si'er twisted his body, and muttered in a low voice: "What is the identity of the family, what is the identity of the concubine? Even if I become the master's wife, the concubine does not have a decent family. Others look down on me, so who can say anything?"

Longkodo said with a bit of distress: "You, you, you have only been raised for a few days, and you are thinking about this again. The master knows, and I will find a good relative to give you a good face..."
