Outside Xihua Gate, Jueluo Mansion.

Hearing that the king of Pingjun had sent someone to invite him, Seshtu frowned slightly and glanced at his wife and mother. Because it was not easy to make people wait for a long time, Seshtu ordered someone to go to the stable to lead the horses, and he and his mother said a few more words.

When his son went out, the Hitara clan took Cao Yi's hand, sat on the side of the kang, and said worriedly: "Look at you, you have lost weight again!" Even if you are filial to your father, it is natural to keep filial piety for your father, but it is not good to spoil your body like this! In the kitchen, I asked someone to boil the bird's nest, and it will be served later, you can drink a bowl first! ”

When Cao Yi heard this, she was very moved in her heart, thinking about the love that the Xitara clan had treated her in the past two years, her heart was soft and she couldn't speak.

Hitara patted his daughter-in-law's hand, sighed, and asked, "Daughter-in-law, what do you think about talking to your mother, why do you want to talk about the second room?" ”

Cao Yi slowly lowered his head and said, "The daughter-in-law still needs to keep filial piety for her father for more than half a year, and the filial piety period has expired, and there must always be someone waiting for her." Besides, Eniang is already in the year of the sixtieth year, and it is also our blessing to add a grandson and granddaughter as soon as possible, and to be on the knees! ”

The Hitara clan looked at Cao Yi and said, "If the second room enters the door and gives birth to an heir, is there still a place for you in this family?" Daughter-in-law, E-Niang can protect you for a while, but not for a lifetime, even if you are angry with Tu'er, you shouldn't let your surname be like this, and pull other women in, otherwise it will be too late for you to regret it in the future. We women are all miserable, and we can't be as wanton as men, this is fate! ”

Cao Yi put his hand on the hand of the Hitara clan and murmured, "How good it would be if E-Niang was the daughter-in-law's mother-in-law!" As he spoke, his eyes turned red.

When the Hitara clan heard this, he said with a little disgust: "Silly child, isn't my mother-in-law also my mother-in-law?" What is the difference between being your husband's mother and your own? Although there are many evil mothers-in-law in this world, there are also mother-in-laws and daughters-in-law who are like mothers and daughters! Speaking of this, he hesitated a little and asked, "Is it Tu'er's previous foolish thing that broke your heart?" So what are you going to do? ”

Cao Yi's eyes were a little confused. yes, what do you think, how can you make yourself so embarrassed?

The Hitara clan didn't know how to enlighten their daughter-in-law, but they also knew that if they let the little couple make trouble by themselves like this, even if they didn't "reconcile" in the end, they would inevitably become a pair of resentful couples who "respected each other like ice". Therefore, she scolded Cao Yi fiercely, annoyed that she didn't put her husband in her eyes, otherwise how could she allow other women to get involved.

You know, the husband is not only the husband, but also the father of his own children in the future, how can he be worthy of his own children if he wants to give away half of his husband so easily?

Even if it is not uncommon for husband and wife to be sad because of sadness, is it possible to give up the love of the child? When the second room really enters the door, the eldest son is a concubine, and half of the family property is divided, not to mention, if he really pleases his father and bullies his younger brothers and sisters, she is surnamed Mian, where can she be the master for her children? If the second concubine is a black-hearted person, there are also murders for the son-in-law.

During this period, a few more favored concubines were intervened in the dispute between concubines and concubines, and Cao Yi's face changed again and again. She was originally in the boudoir, and there were few elders and daughters of the seventh and eighth aunts of the Cao family, where had she heard this? All I know in my life is the things of the Cao family. When I arrived at Jueluo's house, because of the strict style of the Hitara clan, the people who came and went were all very disciplined people.

On the side of the Cao family's room, a few years ago, because Cao Yin doted on her young son, her aunt Liuli was very arrogant for a while, but she didn't dare to be rude in front of the Li family. In the end, his son died, and he went crazy, which can be regarded as a miserable end.

On the second side, the Zhaojia clan has always been strong, and Cao Yi's biological mother is needless to say, just talking about the other concubines in the house, they are also arbitrary, and no one dares to refute half a point.

Cao Yi was just saddened by what her husband had done before, and wanted to arrange a concubine room for him. She is herself, so she can be clean, accompany her mother-in-law to give birth to a child, save some trouble, and send it back to her parents' house to worry her parents and brother.

Now, listening to the bloody talk of the Xitara clan, Cao Yi's heart was in turmoil, and he muttered: "Eniang, are you there?" Where did it get to this? ”

Hitara shook his head and said, "How many more years can I be hard?" After two years, I will be paralyzed and gone, where can I compare to you young people! Even if it's still there, both sides are my daughters-in-law and my grandsons, and there is no reason to be biased to one end! ”

Cao Yi felt cold in his heart when he heard this, and said, "Isn't my daughter-in-law a sister-in-law?" What about the rules? What about etiquette? ”

The Hitara clan said: "Don't say it's a small family like us, it's the royal family, the one who was deposed a few days ago was born by Queen Yuan, and he can't be a grandson anymore, so what?" Rules and etiquette are just decorations, if you want to live a comfortable life, you can't count on the kindness of others! ”

Cao Yi remembered her mother's earnest teachings before she got married, and listened to her mother-in-law's words at this time, and her mind was a little confused.

Hitara said, "Your husband is yours, and this home is yours." Do you want to watch others live lovingly with your husband and make your own decorations? Or be a veritable hostess and gather your husband's heart into the palm of your own hand, it's up to you! I won't persuade you to say these words again in the future, if you really make up your mind to be a 'virtuous' person who takes the initiative to take concubines for your husband, then I don't bother to say more. It's just that I'm used to being pure, and I can't stand the excitement of this wife and concubine's 'harmony and beauty', so I will ask someone to pack up their luggage and go back to the old house to live. Whether you are making trouble here, whether it is affection or affection, the old woman is too lazy to pay attention to it! ”

"E-niang!" Cao Yi heard that her mother-in-law was annoyed, and hurriedly said: "Eniang, it's the daughter-in-law who is troublesome!" Otherwise, let the master go. Whether it is a concubine or a room, the daughter-in-law is filial piety in front of her mother-in-law. Mother-in-law, don't leave your daughter-in-law alone, okay? As he spoke, there was a look of supplication in his eyes.

The Xitara clan remembered the reason why Cao Yi was raised in the big house that he had heard from Seshtu a few days ago, and he felt very sorry in his heart, and he also knew that his daughter-in-law was really filial to her mother, but in order to cure her surname, who was afraid to deal with things, she still said with a cold face: "Nonsense, how old are you, just say such things!" Do you want to follow the old woman to eat fasting and chant Buddha, and keep living and widowed! If you really treat Tu'er with no affection, and you don't even have the idea of reconciling with your husband and wife, then my wife will call the shots and let him write a 'wife' document to make you 'reconcile'! ”

Cao Yi entered the door for two years, and it was the first time he suffered from the face of the Xitara clan, and when he saw that even "Heli" came out in the words, he was panicked for a while, stretched out his hand and pulled the sleeve of the Xitara clan, and was so anxious that he couldn't speak.

Xitara shook his sleeves, turned his head, didn't look at Cao Yi, and said with a little melancholy: "Speaking of which, my wife is not blessed, when I saw you for the first time, I was close to my heart, I liked it, I thought that if I could ask to be a daughter-in-law, then my wife has nothing else to look forward to!" I don't want to be such a bastard, I made a fuss twice or three times, don't say that you are cold, even the old woman is cold when she looks at it! After all, it's my fault, he Ama went early, and I, who is a mother, didn't discipline me well! Now, there is no face left for you! ”

Cao Yi burst into tears, shook his head and said, "It's not like this, it's not like this, it's all because the daughter-in-law is not good, and it makes you angry!" Lord...... It's just that the daughter-in-law is stingy, and although she is generous, she expects her to only be good to her daughter-in-law...... Unexpectedly, there was a sudden incident with Qiu Xuan, and the child in her belly was gone, and her daughter-in-law felt so wronged...... "Speaking of this, I was already crying."

The Hitara clan breathed a sigh of relief, took Cao Yilou in his arms, and let her cry. I've been holding this breath for a year, crying and making trouble, it should be more comfortable.

*Where are the people from the Pingjun Palace? The one who came to find Rosseshtu was one of his younger brothers, Lumubu, who was in the guard camp.

Unlike Jueluo Seshtu, Lu Mubu is not only a clan, but also a close branch, and is the nephew of Emperor Kangxi, whose father is Gongbei Le Haishan, and his ancestor is Prince Gong Changning.

Although in his early years, Seshtu was just a red belt in the middle of the family, and Lu Mubu was from a prominent background, but it did not hinder the two from intersecting.

Now, there is some meaning of feng shui turning. Ten days earlier, Lumubu's father, Dorobel Haishan, had been dismissed on charges of conniving with his chamberlains in various places and refusing to tell the truth, and the title of Beylor was taken by Lumubu's second brother, Mandu.

According to the rules, a clan like Lu Mubu must be knighted when he reaches the age of twenty. It's just that although he is the second son, his brother died early and became the only son of Baylor House, and he has long been regarded as an heir to inherit his father's title. Therefore, although he is twenty years old, he does not have a knighthood.

Unexpectedly, now that his father has been dismissed, even his future is uncertain, and I am afraid that it is delusional to want the lowest general Bong'en.

Lu Mubu's heart was in a mess, and he had to pretend not to care at home, take care of his parents, and comfort his wife and children. Yesterday I had moved out of Baylor House, and a family of about 100 people was crammed into another house that was not very spacious.

He was really depressed in his heart, so he came to Seshtu to drink, knowing that Seshtu had little entertainment recently, and he was afraid that he would scruple about coming to his home, so he used the signboard of Pingjun Wangfu to cover him up.

Seeing Seshtu come out, Lu Mubu laughed twice and said, "It's not easy to see you now, how come you are now promoted, but you are not as comfortable as before, but your sister-in-law has set rules for you?" ”

Seshtu couldn't help but give him a punch, and scolded with a smile: "You guy, just say that you are looking for me, can I still not come out, and use such a lie?" ”

Lu Mubu was inadvertently touched, and a wry smile appeared on his face. After Seshtu finished speaking, Fang remembered the current situation of the Lu Mubu family, regretted his words, but pretended not to know on his face, and said casually: "Seeing that it is entering the winter moon, the weather is strangely cold, whether you want to drink or go to the play, there must be a charter, right?" ”

Lu Mubu was impatient and lively, just wanted to find a quiet place, drink a few cups with old friends, and feel happy, so he squeezed his eyes and said: "Last month, Chongshan's birthday, my brother didn't come, everyone went to a secret door in Xinjiekou, all of them are girls from the south, not to mention, it is wine and food, and it is also authentic Huaiyang cuisine, which is authentic." Why don't we send someone to ask, and if the place is still empty, let's go there and have a drink!" ”

Seshtu was worried about the woman's affairs, and he really didn't have any interest in looking for flowers and asking willows, so he patted Lu Mubu on the shoulder and said, "Those dirty places, you don't go in the future, if people use the crime of 'misconduct' to sue the Zongren Mansion, where will there be good fruits to eat?" In these years, people's hearts are difficult to fathom, there are few charcoal in the snow, and many stones fall into the well. Now, even if you Ama is dismissed, it's not a big deal. In recent years, are there still few people who have been dismissed and reinstated in the capital? Even if there is no hope of reinstatement for a while, you are a close branch of Tianhuang, and you are on an errand in front of the emperor, and you will be 'entitled' and 'merit-sealed' in the future, which way can you go? If someone grabs their pigtails and splashes you with dirty water, who else can you rely on to go to this room? ”

These words were said sincerely, and Lu Mubu listened with his head down. Seshtu knew that he was uncomfortable, so he said: "There is a 'casserole house' in Nanchizi, his sauerkraut and white meat are the most authentic, and the wine is also good!" It's weird cold this day, and it's appropriate to eat that! ”

While talking, the two got on the horse, and took only the two small servants to the south pool.

On the other side of the alley, Cao Hao had a calm face and galloped with Wei Hei and Xiaoman. When he arrived at the gate of Jueluo's house, Cao Hao jumped off his horse and squinted at the plaque on the gate.

When the porter heard the movement, he came out to ask, recognized Cao Haolai, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Hey, uncle, the slave has greeted you!" ”

Cao Hao waved his hand, told the man to get up, and said, "I'm tired of passing the word, I have something to see you...... Big Granny! "I originally wanted to see Seshtu first, but after all, I was worried about my sister, so I held back my anger and visited Ping'er first.

The porter was also surprised, this uncle was sent by the king of Pingjun to find him, and at this time, the uncle who was an official in Shandong came to the door again. Thinking of the gossip he had heard recently, he also knew in his heart that this was the eldest grandmother's family who came to ask for the guilt, for fear of being unjustifiably harmed, and his attitude was very respectful. Nodding his head, he led Cao Hao to the living room, and went to the second door to report the news.

In the main room, Cao Yi was almost crying, thinking that her mother-in-law had made a mistake for herself this year, and she felt very guilty. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law said a lot of confidant words.

Hearing the words of the subordinates, the uncle of the Cao family came to see the grandmother. The Xitara clan's expression froze, and then he smiled and instructed Cao Yi: "It seems that the uncle of the in-laws is returning to Beijing on business, you go and take a look, don't let the guests wait for a long time!" ”

"Brother is back?" Cao Yiyuan thought that he had heard it wrong, and his mind was a little trance-like, and where he was still thinking, there was still that family surnamed Cao among his in-laws.

Hearing her mother-in-law's instructions, Cao Yifang woke up and knew that it was really her brother who had returned, and her face was full of joy.

Xitara took out a handkerchief, pulled Cao Yi to her side, wiped the tears on her face for her, and said with love: "Quickly put away the tears, or the uncle of the family will see it, and how many grievances the sister has suffered, I am afraid that I will die of distress!" ”

Although Cao Yi was in a hurry to see her brother, she also knew that her mother-in-law was right, wiped away all the tears, and took a little girl to the front yard.

When he arrived in the front hall and saw his brother, Cao Yigang wanted to greet him with a smile, but when he saw the plain clothes on his body, he couldn't help but feel a little sad when he thought of the deceased Cao Quan, and choked up and said, "Brother......"

Cao Hao saw her sister come in, stood up on the seat, and saw that her face was pale, her eyes were red, and her clothes were empty.

"Brother, second uncle...... Can the second uncle go safely? Even though he complained a little about his father's dishonesty, Cao Yi couldn't help but ask, but the word "father" couldn't be said anyway.

Cao Hao didn't answer, and said very calmly: "Ping'er, do you miss your father and mother?" My brother asked someone to send you back to Jiangning, okay? Otherwise, I will go to Shandong with my brother, God bless the full moon, and the appearance is very cute! ”

Cao Yi's face showed doubts, and then he thought of the meaning of his words, his little face suddenly turned pale, and his eyes widened and said, "Brother? ”

Cao Hao touched her head and said, "If my brother lives for a day, he will not allow Ping'er to be wronged; Even if my brother dies, there will still be Cao Song and them, and God bless! ”

Cao Yi thought that there was no news of his brother going to Beijing before, and couldn't help but wonder: "Brother, my brother made a special trip back to Beijing for Ping'er?" ”

Before Cao Hao could reply, he heard a chaos outside, and the steward ran over panting, and said, "Grandma, it's not good, the master has an accident, and he is covered in blood!" ”

Cao Yi was startled, glanced at his brother, and hurriedly followed. Cao Hao thought about Wei Hei and Xiao Man waiting outside, could it be the two of them?

At the gate, a panicked Lu Mubu helped Seshtu, who was covered in blood, to walk in the door. Cao Yi hurriedly greeted her, seeing her husband's eyes closed and his face flushed, she couldn't help but exclaim: "This ...... This ......"

Lu Mubu had come to Jueluo's house before, and he had seen Cao Yi, and when he saw her as if he had met a savior, he hurriedly said: "Sister-in-law, quickly ask someone to close the door, I don't know where to hit a madman, and gave my brother a brick!" Chase and fight again! As he spoke, he hurriedly beckoned the people on the side to close the door and close the latch.

Cao Hao originally came after Cao Yi, and he was already thinking that no matter what, he would beat Seshtu first. Unexpectedly, when I saw him looking like he was immortal, I heard someone outside the gate shouting and scolding: "Seshtu, fuck your uncle, you turtle grandson, get out of here!" ”

In a word, Cao Hao and Cao Yi were stunned when they heard it, this, it's not Cao Song, or which one!
