Chapter 379: Can That Young Man Afford to Mess With You?
Old Madam Cao also shook her head with a meaningful smile, she really couldn't imagine that this kid was actually the disciple of the Dream Confusion Master that her son often talked about. Who is the Master of Dream Confusion, and the relationship between him and his son, how can Mrs. Cao not know?
However, for a younger generation of young people like Duan Shaojun, Mrs. Cao really can't have the slightest sense of evil, and more importantly, this kid is clever and intelligent, and even his scheming son makes him dizzy, and he feels more and more interesting about this kid.
At this time, Cao Zhongde finally came back. excitedly carrying a wine jar of about seven or eight catties, he said excitedly. "Auntie, what do you see I've found? This is a grape wine from the Western Regions, and I heard from the person who guarded the wine kiln that this thing was a gift from the Persian envoys of the Western Regions to Emperor Mingzong thirty years ago, and it was only selected by the Son of Heaven the year before last and given to his cousin. ”
"You kid, drink as much as you want, but don't be crazy with the old man, otherwise, don't blame the old man for throwing you to the kiln to sober up." Mrs. Cao had a headache for her nephew, who was an alcoholic, but when she saw him like that, she couldn't bear to disturb his interest, so she ordered her to prepare dishes to accompany the wine.
"By the way, don't forget to get the glass jar, if this wine is not served in the glazed jar, it is a big pity." Cao Zhongde hurriedly shouted after him, and then sat down beside Duan Shaojun with the wine jar, and said with a smug face.
"Old lady, you can drink some too." Duan Shaojun looked at Cao Zhongde and opened the jar, a sweet and sour aroma of wine came to his nose, which made people smoky, and the ancient wine didn't make any ghosts dry red, Duan Shaojun actually likes to drink wine, but he really can't stand the kind of bottled dry red and white that has to get rid of the sugar.
On the contrary, I like the kind of home-brewed wine with a bit of sweetness, which is really called the original taste.
"Can an old man drink?" Old Madam Cao glanced at Duan Shaojun with some surprise, and said in her heart that she had seen through this kid's careful thoughts, this thing wanted to kill people with a knife and kill her own life, right?
"You can drink a little, not more than this small cup a day." Duan Shaojun brought a small cup from the side, this small cup was originally used to hold spices, and it could probably hold about one or two liquids.
"If you allowed my aunt and grandmother to drink, why can't you drink more?" Cao Zhongde next to him asked curiously.
"Presumably the old lady must have heard the old saying that food is wasted because of choking, right?" Duan Shaojun ignored this drunkard, but looked at the old lady Cao with a suspicious face and said earnestly.
Old Madam Cao bowed slightly. "According to the little brother, what do you mean, if you drink less of this thing, it will be beneficial to the body?"
Duan Shaojun nodded and said. "Yes, but you can only drink this wine, or the flower carving of Jiangnan, or other wines, forget it. And even if it is these two kinds of wine, drinking less, will have certain benefits and health care for the old lady's body, but if you drink too much, it will be harmful and inappropriate. ”
"Because the substances contained in the grapes can be ...... Well, in short, it can soften blood vessels, have the effect of invigorating blood and removing stasis, in addition, grapes also have many effects such as replenishing qi and blood, benefiting the liver and kidneys, strengthening muscles and bones, relieving cough and removing annoyance, replenishing qi and blood, and facilitating urination...... If the old lady usually has grapes, she eats three or four taels every day, and if there are no grapes in the season, then drink such a cup, which is good for your body recovery. Duan Shaojun didn't dare to talk about resveratrol proanthocyanidins, but fortunately, now that he understands Chinese medicine, he can say a set.
Old Madam Cao nodded thoughtfully. "Since Brother Duan thinks that the old body can drink a little, then it is a drink. Ah Fei, you have to remember, every day, let the old body drink such a small cup of wine, understand? ”
"Don't worry, old lady, we have made a note." The servants and maids next to him nodded in agreement.
"Alas...... To be honest, this wine is really good, smelling it, it feels like tasting grapes, but it is really sweet......" Mrs. Cao carefully picked up the small cup that had been cleaned and poured into the wine, and sniffed lightly, with an intoxicated face.
"Such a fine wine, come on, come on, brother Xian, you and I wish my aunt and grandmother a long life." Cao Zhongde couldn't wait to pick up the colorful glass cup, and Chong Duan Shaojun raised the cup to invite him to drink.

"The child has seen his mother, how does his mother feel today?" The next day, after Zhao Linfu, who had just returned from the morning court, changed out of his court clothes, he went straight to Mrs. Cao's courtyard to visit her mother.
"It's good, Da Lang, come here, my mother hasn't talked to you for a few days." Old Madam Cao took Zhao Linfu's hand and looked at this filial son carefully.
Perhaps, in the eyes of others, Zhao Linfu is harmful to the country, but in the eyes of Mrs. Cao, this son of filial piety is a thousand good. But there is one bad thing, in the eyes of Mrs. Cao, her son is a little cautious.
"Mother, your complexion is getting better and better, the weather is good today, or I will walk around with my mother, didn't Duan Gongzi say that you always need to be more active?" Zhao Linfu smiled, looked at his aging mother and said.
"After a while, this mother wants to say a few words to you." Old Madam Cao smiled and motioned for the maid to leave the room before continuing. "That little brother is a disciple of Master Dream, right?"
"My mother also knows?" Zhao Linfu was slightly stunned, nodded and smiled. "That kid is indeed a disciple of Master Dream Confusion, and according to rumors, he is still a disciple of his mantle."
Old Madam Cao nodded slightly. "So, you want to deal with him?"
"Mother, what do you mean by that?" Zhao Linfu looked at his old lady and asked cautiously.
"Da Lang, that kid, my mother looks very pleasing to the eye, besides, it's just a young man who has not yet reached the age of a weak crown, the grievances between you and the master of dreams, the old body can't manage it, and I don't want to take care of it, but this kid saved my mother's life......" Speaking of this, Mrs. Cao paused deliberately and glanced at Zhao Linfu, whose face was slightly ugly. My mother doesn't want you to make me sad. ”
Zhao Linfu sighed helplessly. "Mother, how dare the child, it's just that the young gentleman is so intentional about approaching your mother, I'm afraid that it is this idea to fight, so that the child is trapped in his hands and feet, and he can't ......"
"Even if it's true, so what? A young man under twenty years old, can he still afford to provoke you, the ruler of the dynasty? Old Madam Cao said unhappily.
Zhao Linfu could only keep silent, and Mrs. Cao couldn't help but snort when she saw her son being so stubborn. "Da Lang, in short, you remember, he is my mother's life-saving benefactor, if our Zhao family will take revenge, my mother will not agree."
"Mother, ...... you" Zhao Linfu was stunned for a moment, and he was about to be persuaded again, but he was kicked out of the room by Mrs. Cao on the grounds of sleepiness.

After guarding the door for a while, but he couldn't wait for Mrs. Cao to open the door, Zhao Linfu could only smile bitterly, and after greeting him outside the door, he turned around and left.
In front of his golden silk nanmu desk, fiddling with the agarwood Guanyin ornament in his hand, Zhao Linfu fell into a deep groan, but a cloud of anger rose in his heart. My mother actually said good things for that kid, but, Duan boy, if you hurt my son, I don't care about you about this matter, and it can be regarded as thank you for saving my mother.
However, you deliberately talked about him left and right today, obviously to cover up your real purpose of entering Beijing, don't think that the old man is so easy to fool, if he is so fooled, how can the old man have the power he has today?
"Someone!" After pondering for a long time, Zhao Linfu finally made up his mind. Seeing the person standing in front of him respectfully after entering the study, Zhao Linfu commanded slowly and forcefully. "Send someone to the old man to keep an eye on that young man, no matter where he goes, what he does, or what he does, he must give the old man one by one. Also, don't let the old lady know, understand? ”
The visitor nodded understandingly. "Don't worry, the little one knows what to do, and he will definitely not worry about the old lady."
"Wait a minute, in addition, don't let Erlang do anything stupid, the old lady is very dissatisfied with him now, let him study well for the old man behind closed doors, and if something goes wrong, the old man will break his legs." Zhao Linfu finally regained the momentum and style of a dignified man.
"Well, if Xiangye doesn't have any instructions, then the little one will do it." After seeing that Zhao Linfu had no more orders, the visitors hurried away.
