Chapter 585: Sacrifice
"What are you doing! It's broad daylight! ”
Cao Xi used all his strength to finally push Guo Jiaren away. Well, by the time this happened, neither of them knew how long it had been mouth-to-mouth.
"Do you need to feed it again?" Guo Jia asked.
"No need, I'll drink it myself!" Cao Xi hurriedly said, after all, it is an ancient woman, in broad daylight, where is it embarrassing to do such a shameless thing, turn off the lights, and the black light is almost the same, phew. In short, how could Cao Xi stand this kind of thing, what if someone suddenly broke in and saw it. Even if no one broke in, with such a bright light, just looking at Guo Jia, Cao Xi would be shy.
"Do you need to reheat it up?" Guo Jia asked, not reluctantly.
"There's no need, it's just right to drink it cold." Cao Xi said, yes, now that Cao Xi is blushing and his heart is beating, he naturally feels good when he drinks cold.
After Cao Xi drank the medicine in one go, Guo Jia spoke,
"Today is actually your eldest brother's 100 days."
As I said before, if it weren't for today's special day, Guo Jia wouldn't know when he would be able to think of Cao Xi. It turned out that today was the 100th day after Cao Ang's death, and according to tradition, it was natural to hold a memorial ceremony. In this way, Guo Jiacai suddenly remembered Cao Xilai, and also reacted that it was very inappropriate to confine Cao Xi at such a time. Then last night, Guo Jia came to find Cao Xi, and it was not until that moment that Guo Jia knew that Cao Xi was really seriously ill and did not deceive him with bitter tricks. And the reason why Cao Xi fell ill, Guo Jia can now imagine. Therefore, Guo Jia is also a rare gentleness. Just stayed by the side and guarded Cao Xi.
As for the memorial service, though. It's not that Cao Ang has not been commemorated before, but there has definitely been no formal memorial. For example, during the first seven. Cao Cao was still fighting outside and didn't come back, and later after returning to Xudu, there was still Liu Bei's matter, Cao Cao also had to eliminate dissidents and restrict the right to sacrifice the emperor, these are all big things, Cao Cao can't not care, he was busy for a while, and where could he find time to pay tribute to Cao Ang.
So. It wasn't until today's 100 days that the memorial ceremony for Cao Ang and others really began, and because it had not been organized before, the scale of this time was definitely huge. Perhaps, Cao Cao also wanted to take this opportunity to give Emperor Xian his power. It's like a military exercise, let Emperor Xian see how many people and how powerful he is under Cao Cao, so as to warn Emperor Xian not to act rashly like before.
"I'll be at home with you today, and we'll build a platform by ourselves......"
Because Cao Xi is seriously ill, he has not recovered. So Guo Jia decided to set up a platform at home, do a relatively small ceremony, and simply pay tribute to Cao Ang, there is no need to go out and fight with so many people.
But. Before Guo Jia finished speaking, Cao Xi looked directly at Guo Jia and said,
"I want to go."
There was a hint of pleading in his tone. Because Cao Xi knows that it is not only the cause of illness. She is still locked up now, and it is definitely not her willfulness. If you want to go, you can go in the end.
“…… All right. Wear more clothes and don't get cold from the wind. Guo Jia really couldn't find any reason to refuse Cao Xi, perhaps, he didn't let Cao Xi go for Cao Xi's health, but did he want to make Cao Xi miserable for the rest of his life? People are not machines, it is impossible to choose everything reasonably, everything must be the best, people have feelings, even if they do something that they know is wrong, as long as they have a clear conscience and do not regret it!
"Husband!" Cao Xi burst into tears, and hurriedly turned his head away, "Hmph! That's what you're supposed to do. ”
"Yes, that's what I'm supposed to do."
Guo Jiaying and Dao. When Cao Xi is angry, even most of the time, he calls Guo Jia's name directly, called "Guo Jia", under what circumstances will Cao Xi subconsciously call him "husband", this kind of thing, Guo Jia himself is not clear!
Due to Cao Xi's illness, when Guo Jia and Cao Xi arrived at the scene, the memorial ceremony had already begun. The reason why she was late was not that Cao Xi was delayed on the road for a long time, on a day like today, no matter how sick Cao Xi was, she couldn't delay, she could only say that Cao Xi woke up too late, and when she woke up, she was actually late.
"Fengxiao, you can be regarded as here."
Guo Jia and Cao Xi had just arrived outside, and Xun Yu greeted him and said.
"What? Is something wrong? Guo Jia hurriedly asked, he didn't believe that without him today, this memorial ceremony would not be able to continue.
"The lord and Mrs. Ding quarreled inside, and we were a little hard to talk about next to us, so let's go in and persuade you quickly." Xun Yu said.
Guo Jia's heart moved, and he immediately guessed some clues.
"Ahem, how did my father and mother quarrel?" Cao Xi immediately asked beside him.
"This ...... Hey, it's actually very difficult for the lord to do, in short, just go in and know. Xun Yu shook his head and sighed.
Needless to say, Guo Jia could also guess that it was obvious that Cao Cao once again "ignored" Cao Ang and began to cry. Just like Xun Yu said, Cao Cao is actually really embarrassed, Cao Cao may not care about his son? You must know that Cao Ang is Cao Cao's eldest son, and he is also a very good successor.
If the time is staggered, then it's easy to do, cry Cao Ang when you should cry Cao Ang, cry Dian Wei when you should cry Dian Wei, but Cao Ang and Dian Wei died on the same day, today is Cao Ang's 100 days, yes, but it is also Dian Wei's 100 days! This is also why, in addition to the people of the Cao family, "outsiders" such as Xun Yu will also come to participate in the memorial.
In such a situation, Cao Cao is the lord, and there are subordinates present, can Cao Cao just care about Cao Ang and Dian Wei? That Cao Cao said at the beginning, "I fold my eldest son and my beloved nephew, and there is no deep pain, and I cry for my sole name!" "Is it farting?! As for the separate memorials or something, if you treat them differently like this, you will definitely be talked about again.
As described in the romance: Later, Cao Cao's march passed through his hometown, and he still couldn't help crying, and immediately ordered the military horses to be stopped, a large sacrificial feast, the soul of Dian Wei, and personally poured incense and cried and worshipped, and sacrificed to his nephew and eldest son.
Therefore, Cao Cao also decided to do the same today, first to pay tribute to Dian Wei, and after it was over, to pay tribute to his son Cao Ang and nephew Cao Anmin. Cao Cao's behavior, in the eyes of Mrs. Ding, naturally became "ignoring" her son Cao Ang.
In fact, Mrs. Ding is definitely a sensible person, which is the same as Cai Wenji, but the loss of her son is too sad, and Mrs. Ding's sustenance for so many years disappeared all of a sudden, and she is naturally a little abnormal. But even so, Mrs. Ding was just quarreling with Cao Cao, asking Cao Cao to return her son, blaming Cao Cao for killing her son, and didn't blame Dian Wei at all, and didn't say that Cao Cao was an outsider, but she didn't care about her own son at all. In this way, it can also be seen that Mrs. Ding is indeed not an ordinary woman. (To be continued......)
