Xicheng, Caofu, Huaiyuan.

Jade Dragonfly and other maids are in Haidian Garden, and there is only a mother-in-law here who leads a little girl who has not left a head to watch the house, so the yard is quite deserted.

Cao Song was in the room, neither sitting nor standing, and tossed all morning. Although his heart is no longer in his body, and he doesn't know where to fly for a long time, he doesn't dare to move.

Ping's decisiveness has long since disappeared, and he is a little afraid in his heart, and he doesn't know how to meet.

What if the "ugly girl" gets tired of him? What should I do if the "ugly girl" cries?

Cao Song thought that his brain hurt, and he couldn't help but tap his head a few times, not knowing whether to regret it or not. I knew this was the case, why bother in the first place, I shouldn't have bullied her all the time back then, if she had a grudge in her heart, how could it be good?

However, if she took it to heart, wouldn't it be right? That's in my heart...... Thinking of this, Cao Song smirked again.

The elder brother said that he was going to go out of Beijing with Hu, and the foreign affairs of the house would be entrusted to Mr. Zhuang, and the grandmother of the "ugly girl" was still in the yamen of the criminal department, so it was necessary to ask someone to take care of the yamen in the future.

Thinking of this, Cao Song smiled.

Although he was most impatient with such social exchanges in the past, he should learn more in the future, his brother is busy, Mr. Zhuang is already sixty people, and he is not good at being a younger brother and is always idle.

The "ugly girl" is in this house, and I don't know if she can't get used to it. Cao Song hesitated, but decided to go to Wutong Garden, ask his sister-in-law for a while, and maybe he could meet her.

As soon as I got out of the house and walked to the porch, before I got out of the yard, I saw a mother-in-law coming over and said, "Second master, second wife is back!" ”

"Mother is back?" Cao Song was surprised, and asked, "Have you entered the second gate, who did you come back with?" ”

The mother-in-law replied: "I have entered the second gate and gone to the yard of the eldest grandmother, except for the fourth girl and the fifth girl, I took a few maids and daughters-in-law in the second wife's room, and the two aunts and the third master and the fourth master did not come back!" ”

"Went to my sister-in-law's yard?" When Cao Song heard this, he only felt that his heart was hanging high, and he hurriedly walked to Wutong Garden.

*On the side of Wutong Garden, Zhao Jia's family has already taken the maid into the courtyard.

She originally went back to the Peony Courtyard to change her clothes first, but after thinking about it, she still went to Wutong Garden first. She is an aunt, and she came back specifically for her nephew and daughter-in-law, and she must let her nephew and daughter-in-law appreciate it. Therefore, she sent ** to take the fourth sister and the fifth son back to the Peony Courtyard first, and she took people to Wutong Garden by herself.

Xicai was taking the two little maids out of the table, and when she saw Zhao Jia's busy bowing down, she saluted: "Second wife! ”

Zhao Jiashi nodded, glanced at the food on the table, and asked, "Why are you eating at this hour, you are not feeling well?" ”

Xicai replied: "Gege has been a little thirsty and sleepy these two days, and he got up later in the morning. ”

Chu Yu was talking to Jinghui in the house, and was surprised to hear Zhaojia's voice in the courtyard, and got up to greet the door.

Zhao Jiashi had already arrived at the bottom of the porch, and Xicai hurriedly reached out to lift the curtain.

Zhao Jia's family entered the house, Lu Ju followed behind, and the other maids and women were waiting outside.

After the incident of the Jade Spider in Layue last year, Cao Song found a reason and attacked Mama Zhang. Zhao Jia's family was so troubled by him that he had no choice but to obey his wishes and let Mama Zhang "be raised".

Among the rest of the people, Green Ju is a duty, and although the others have different thoughts, they don't dare to make trouble. In this way, there is a lot of less-in-the-box rumors in Zhaojia's house.

As soon as Chu Yu came out of the Westinghouse, he saw that Zhao Jia's had already come in from outside, and bowed his head and said, "The second wife is back!" ”

Zhao Jiashi saw that she was wearing clothes and holding a big belly, she was really a little uneasy, so she took two steps forward, took Chu Yu's hand, and asked: "I heard that you are uncomfortable these days, I really can't rest assured, what's the matter, are you still impatient to eat all day?" ”

is accustomed to seeing the yin and yang weirdness of the Zhaojia clan, and now it is so hot, which makes Chu Yu a little unable to react.

Zhao Jiashi looked at her stomach carefully, touched her slightly emaciated arm, and said, "This child eats his mother's meat!" Hurry up and rest in the house, beware of being tired! His brother sent someone to call Song'er back yesterday, but he didn't worry about the family? It's just that he knows what he knows, so he should tell me......"

Zhao Jiashi pulled Chu Yu to the West House, and said a lot of thunderbolts.

As soon as he entered the house, Zhao Jiashi saw a girl standing a little stiffly on one side, and a little maid standing behind her.

The girl was seventeen or eighteen years old, not tall, wearing a green flag suit, moon white armor, and her appearance was also considered Zhouzheng, looking at Si Swenwen.

"Visitors from the house?" Zhao Jiashi turned his head and asked Chu Yu.

Chu Yu introduced: "This is our cousin, the niece and daughter of the aunt of the Fucha family, whose nickname is Jinghui. As he spoke, he said to Jinghui: "Cousin, this is our second wife, you should call your second aunt!" ”

A flush appeared on Jinghui's face, and she squatted down like an onion, and whispered in her mouth: "Please second aunt and mother!" ”

Zhao Jia's family was surrounded by the sentence "the niece and daughter of the aunt of the Fucha family", and he couldn't figure out what kind of cousin he was. She gave her a hand and said, "Hurry up, since you are a relative, it's good to move around more, this is the first time I've seen you!" ”

As she spoke, she had already followed Chu Yu to the side of the kang and sat down. After looking at Jinghui for a long time, she reacted and said to Chu Yu: "Didn't the old man marry Ilgen Jueluo?" That's your sixth uncle's cousin. Her nephew...... The daughter of Dong E's family? ”

Chu Yu beckoned Jinghui to sit down, turned his head and said, "It's this cousin, it's hard for the second wife to remember." From this point of view, starting from the second wife's side, this relative is another layer! ”

Zhao Jiashi remembered an old thing, and said with a smile: "Remember, remember, a few years ago, the nephew of the eldest lady almost said that their daughter. All these years have passed, and I think that the girl has already married and had children, so it seems that this family matter is right, or is it not a widow to go down first? ”

One sentence made Jing Hui and Chu Yu both change their faces, Chu Yu was afraid that Jing Hui would be embarrassed, so he hurriedly diverted the conversation and said, "The second wife has only gone over to these days, why don't you stay longer?" I heard that the garden over there is better, and it is brighter than our house! ”

Zhao Jiashi nodded and said, "It's true that Changliang is cooler than in the city, but there are no elders in the mansion to take care of me, so I can't rest assured." ”

"My nephew and daughter-in-law are fine, but I don't feel at ease, but I am tired of the second wife." Chu Yu didn't expect Zhao Jia's to come back with his own idea, and thought that Cao Hao had said it, and he was still a little strange in his heart, why didn't he mention it.

Hearing Chu Yu mention Cao Hao, Zhao Jia's heart was a little dissatisfied. Even if he feels sorry for his daughter-in-law and is not worried about the house, there is no reason to open his mouth to his father-in-law's house.

If she hadn't been in Beijing as an aunt in previous years, there would indeed be no relatives to entrust; Now that she is a sister-in-law in the capital, if she still does this, it seems that her aunt is mean and refuses to take care of her pregnant nephew and daughter-in-law.

Thinking of this, Zhao Jia's expression faded a little, and said, "Uncle Ming'er is going to go out of Beijing, but everything is packed?" ”

Chu Yu nodded and said, "The first two days have been prepared, and the people who will go with you have also been chosen!" ”

Jinghui was originally sitting on a chair, listening to Chu Yu and Zhao Jia's family talk about the housework of the Cao Mansion, so she thought about finding a reason to avoid it. At this time, I heard the sound of "kicking" footsteps in the yard.

Jing Hui immediately became nervous, this is not the time for the yamen to fall, could it be that he came...... Which one is not Cao Song? It wasn't until he reached the porch that he stopped and raised his voice: "Sister-in-law, is my mother here?" ”

Chu Yu listened, glanced at Jing Hui, and said to Xiyun at the door: "Hurry up and invite the second master to come in!" ”

Xiyun answered, and Cao Song followed in, but his expression was a little stiff.

Jing Hui hurriedly got up from her seat and bowed her head to say goodbye.

Cao Song heard Jinghui say "Second cousin An", only to feel that his body was immediately lighter, as if he had flown nine days away. For a moment, he looked at Jinghui and was speechless.

Zhao Jiashi was stunned when he saw Cao Song, and when he saw this girl for the first time, he didn't know him, and said with a smile: "Look at your stupid appearance, this is your sixth uncle's niece's daughter, the girl of the Dong E family!" ”

She didn't want to think about it, if the two didn't know each other, how could Jinghui directly say "second cousin".

This relative was originally a little far away, and now Cao Song listened to what his mother said, counting from the second room, the two are also cousins, but they were really a little surprised, grabbed their hair, laughed twice, and said: "Cousin Ann!" ”

Jing Hui had already gotten up, so she said to Chu Yu: "Cousin-in-law, you talk to your aunt and second cousin first, and your sister will go back first." ”

Zhao Jiashi saw that the guest was leaving, and just about to leave two sentences, he heard Chu Yu say: "I'm also tired of my sister, that sister will go back to the house to rest first, and let's talk again in the next day!" As he spoke, he instructed Hee-chae to send Jinghui back.

Cao Song said a few days ago, he had seen Jinghui at the temple fair, but he was far away, and he didn't see it real. Now I secretly look at her, but she is also taller, and her eyebrows and eyes are becoming more and more delicate, which is very different from the dry little girl back then.

Jing Hui listened to Chu Yu's words, don't go to Zhao Jia's family, and was about to say goodbye to Cao Song, so she happened to see him right.

Jing Hui only felt that the deer on her chest was bumping, her face was burning terribly, and she bowed her head lightly.

Cao Song saw that her cheeks were dyed red, and her heart moved, and she only felt that she was so beautiful that she wanted to go to heaven, but she was stunned and didn't know what to do. When he woke up, Jinghui had already left the house with Xicai.

Fortunately, Zhao Jia's family was full of curiosity, waiting to ask Chu Yu, and did not notice Cao Song's expression. Otherwise, there is nothing to see.

Waiting for Jinghui to go out, Zhao Jiashi asked, "What did you say?" It's not a visit, but a long-term stay? ”

There are too many involved, Chu Yu can't say it directly, so he said: "I came to visit the door, but it just so happened that Uncle Ming'er was going to go out of Beijing, and my nephew and daughter-in-law were bored, so I stayed as a companion!" ”

Zhao Jiashi shook his head disapprovingly, and said, "In the end, it is a girl's house that has not left the cabinet, and it is not a matter of staying at a relative's house like this." Fortunately, these small ones are in the garden, not in the house, otherwise they would have lost their dignity if they hadn't been in and out? ”

Chu Yu just smiled, but it was really hard to say anything. Zhao Jiashi couldn't help pursing his lips and said secretly: In the end, he is young and does not think about it thoroughly. It seems that there is no elder in this mansion staring, which is really unsettling...... But he said that Jing Hui came out of Wutong Garden, and when he remembered Cao Song's ** gaze, he was also indescribably happy in his heart. However, when I think of my grandmother still in the yamen of the criminal department, my future situation ...... She bit her lip, and there was a trace of sadness in her eyes......* Because she was leaving Beijing tomorrow, Cao Hao did not stay in the yamen for a long time today. After quickly dealing with the errand in hand, and after explaining what should be explained, he went out of the yamen and went to the Pingjun Palace.

Pingjun Wang Nersu is not on the list of followers this year, and he wants to stay in the capital. His sister-in-law Bao Yagege married Horqin the year before last, and added a little prince last spring, and is now more than a year old.

Originally, I thought that Nersu was going to follow him, and he had prepared a lot of gifts in front of the Pingwang Mansion, thinking that Bao Ya would send them when she followed her husband to meet her, but now I think it will not work. Therefore, Fu Jin sent a message to his younger brother, asking him to go out of Beijing to this palace for a while.

Cao Hao wanted to come early, but just in time for the past two days, he was able to spare time today.

Since giving birth to Xiao Gege, Cao Jia's body is a little plump, and it is not yet May, he is a little afraid of heat, and he holds a fan in his hand and does not leave his hand.

followed his brother and said a few words to bring things to Baoya, Cao Jiashi couldn't help but sigh a little, and said to Cao Hao: "Speaking carefully, the girls in this palace are not as comfortable as the girls of ordinary people." Even if we say that we are poorer, we don't have to take these and those responsibilities. The man who loves the Xinjueluo family is easy to do, but the daughter of the Aixinjueluo family is really embarrassed. Every time I think of Baoya, I was such a comfortable person at the beginning, and the palace decreed that it was not to adopt a surname, but to immediately assume the responsibility of the daughter of the sect. Thinking about it now, I don't think there's anything to be happy about adding a big gege. If she grows up Chengren, she will be like her aunt, then I can't bear it in my heart, and I can only slap her hard, as if I never gave birth to this daughter! ”

Cao Hao saw that her words were sentimental, and couldn't help but persuade: "Sister thinks farther!" In the various prefectures in the capital, not every royal mansion went to Mongolia. Even if you really marry Mongolia, it's nothing, isn't there still a lot of money left in Beijing? Bao Gege refers to a county king who has a fief in Mongolia, which is impossible. ”

Cao Jiashi was just scratching his hair, and he had to say it, and asked a few more questions about the situation of Chu Yu and everyone in the second room. Hearing that Zhao Jia's family went to Haidian Garden, Cao Jia's expression was a little strange, and said: "My younger brother and sister were born in less than two months, and the second wife didn't say that she would help take care of it?" ”

Cao Hao said about the separation of the two rooms, Cao Jiashi couldn't help frowning when he heard it, and said: "Brother, I know that you and your younger brother and sister have been married since they became married, and this person is afraid that it is not cheap." However, in the end, it depends on the face of the second uncle, don't make trouble and make my father sad. ”

Speaking of this, Cao Jia's family carefully looked at the actions of the Zhaojia family, shook his head, and said: "I said it wrong, as far as the surname of the younger brother and sister is concerned, if I can propose to divide the stove, I think it must be that the second wife's side is not authentic." Despite this, you are still more aggrieved than the juniors. There is still a father above, don't make it difficult for your father and mother to follow, and don't affect your good reputation and make people poke your backbone in the back. ”

"Well, I know all this, so don't worry, sister!" Seeing Cao Jia's chattering teaching, Cao Hao said with a smile: "How old am I, I still need my sister to explain these again." ”

Because he still had to go to Jueluo Mansion to visit Cao Yi, Cao Hao did not stay in Pingwangfu for a long time. Cao Jiashi heard that he was going to visit his sister, so he ordered someone to fetch a few clothes and materials for Cao Hao to carry over.

Because she was afraid of heat, she thought that she was even more afraid of heat when she had a body, so she deliberately found these yarns, planning to give two horses to each of her sister and brother and daughter-in-law.

Cao Hao didn't take the share given to Chu Yu, and asked the steward of the palace to send it directly to the Cao Mansion along with the gift he brought to Bao Yagege.

He rode his own horse, let Xiaoman hold things, and went to Jueluo Mansion outside Xihua Gate to ...... * Goldfish Hutong, Thirteen Elder Brothers' Mansion, and the front hall.

Seeing that the fourth elder brother was tired, the thirteenth elder brother said: "The fourth elder brother is tired, so he should go back to the house early to rest, why do you still come here?" ”

The fourth elder brother rubbed his forehead and said, "It's okay, it's just that I haven't slept much recently, and I'm a little unenergetic." As he spoke, he looked at the thirteenth elder brother carefully and said, "Looking at the thirteenth brother's complexion, it seems that he looks richer than last month!" ”

"Huh!" The thirteenth elder brother touched his chin and said, "Isn't it, my younger brother himself thinks that there is fat on this body, I'm afraid that in two years, I won't be able to draw a bow or shoot an arrow!" ”

The thirteenth elder brother was born in the twenty-fifth year of Kangxi, and now he is only twenty-nine, and he is in the prime of life, but he is so gloomy at the moment. When the fourth elder brother saw it, he felt really uncomfortable.

After pondering for a moment, the fourth elder brother said with a straight face: "Thirteenth brother, you can give Huang Ama a greeting!" The holy driver is about to leave Beijing, and you, as a son, should be safe. ”

The thirteenth elder brother shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Fourth brother, although my younger brother is detained in this mansion, he is not deaf. What is the situation of starlings now? If my younger brother is on the invitation to break the son, Huang Ama will only hide my evil intentions ......"

The fourth elder brother was speechless, the father and son were suspicious of each other to such an extent, how could it not make people tremble and walk on thin ice.
