Chapter 1035: Visiting the Kids (Part 1)

Seeing Sun Wencheng like this, Cao Yong comforted him: "My second cousin is only in his thirties, and it is when he is used. He is so steady and sensible. It is better to have a cousin to be at ease."

Sun Wencheng smiled bitterly and talked to Cao Yong about the funeral of the First Emperor: "I originally thought of kowtowing on both sides of the imperial road and kneeling to see the First Emperor, but I was afraid that it would fall into the eyes of others, so I said I was pretending, so I just kowtowed to the imperial city in the yard."

After hearing this, Cao Yong briefly mentioned a few words about when the coffin will arrive in Jingling. The emperor was so sad and the scene was so solemn.

After hearing this, Sun Wencheng looked ashamed and said, "It's all my incompetence that I lost my official position and failed the grace of the late emperor."

Although Hangzhou Weaving is an official of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and is only a fifth-rank official, since Cao Yin went north and Li Xu fell out of favor, he was responsible for the secret letter of Jiangnan.

The king and his subjects are also considered to be in harmony.

In weaving this rich yamen, I have been the chief official for more than 20 years, and the account is only a few thousand taels of silver.

There is a farm in the capital, and two in Hangzhou, one is a royal gift, and the other is only added in recent years. Although there is no one who has not been given a single piece of paper, it is impossible to have the word "Qing", but even Cao Yong has to admire such ethics.

In the officialdom, it is even more difficult to gain a foothold without being greedy, especially in the officialdom in Jiangnan. How many people have been lost? Sun Wencheng has been a man with his tail between his legs and has been in business for more than 20 years, and has been consistent.

Cao Yong took out the land deed from his sleeve, pushed it to Sun Wencheng, and said, "If the cousin left a little decent for his nephew, he would accept this. This is a little filial piety of his nephew..." As he spoke, he asked someone to bring the silver over: "There are still some silver for my second cousin. He was originally prepared for silver notes, but he was afraid of causing suspicion for his cousin, so he sent the silver over directly. He also asked his cousin and second cousin not to be vulgar."

The Sun family was dismissed from office for a shortfall just a few months ago. If someone saw him going to the bank to exchange silver for money, he would be suspected of having hidden wealth.

Seeing Cao Yong like this, Sun Wencheng changed his face, waved his hand quickly and said, "I can't stand it, I can't stand it, it's not as good as this. My nephew's kindness, I appreciate it, I'll take it back!"

Cao Yong continued, "Cousin, after the provincial examination, the Ministry of Internal Affairs will recruit the examination. I heard that my second cousin is well-educated, and I think it is impossible to make a mistake. A few days ago, Master Sixteen asked... If you get a job, there are many social places for colleagues and bosses, so you must have some money. I have seen my second cousin with him few times, and I don't know what to give to my cousin's wishes, so I can only give the money directly. If my cousin dislikes his nephew, his nephew will be annoyed."

Sun Wencheng blushed and looked at Cao Yong unable to speak. He was not angry, but he didn't expect Cao Yong to be like this.

Speaking of which, the Sun family and the Cao family were originally alienated. As early as when Cao Yin was alive, the Sun family and the Cao family were no longer close.

Just as Cao Yin thought that Li Xu was so arrogant that he could easily cause trouble, in Sun Wencheng's eyes, the Cao family's fire was cooked, which made people feel terrified.

He has always been a timid, so he didn't care about others saying that he was "ungrateful" and alienated his relationship with the Cao family. When Cao Yin died of illness and Cao Yong was in charge of the family, the relationship between the two families became even weaker.

In his opinion, it would be good for the Cao family to protect Sun Li and his sister. After all, they were nephews of the Cao family. With the Cao family, the grandson's career and granddaughter's marriage were all cheaper.

This is also a selfish selfishness that is not open and easy. It is also a bit of a bargain, but also wants to avoid being implicated and causing trouble.

The Li family participated in the battle for the throne and violated the royal taboo. Seeing Cao Yong stand by and watch him, he felt sad, but he could understand. Because if it were him, he would make the same choice as Cao Yong.

Because of this, he never thought that Cao Yong would take the initiative to help his family. The Sixteenth Prince is the pride of heaven. If Cao Yong had not made any suggestions, how could he have thought of the Sun family's illegitimate son?

When Cao Yong saw Sun Wencheng not speaking, he just pretended that he agreed and said, "Cousin, if it is cheap, my nephew wants to meet his elder sister."

Sun Wencheng then woke up from his surprise. Looking at the wooden box containing silver, he still shook his head and said, "Nephew, you really don't have to do this. If you have a difficult life, I will speak with my nephew..."

Cao Yong was firm in his attitude and said, "Cousin, I said it was prepared for my second cousin. How can my nephew get close to my second cousin in the future?"

After hearing this, Sun Wencheng felt aroused, and he stood up and bowed, "I feel ashamed of this!"

Cao Yong stood up and avoided it, saying, "Cousin does not need to be a heretic."

Seeing that he was like this, Sun Wenzheng stopped talking and just called a servant to invite his eldest grandmother Cao Ying over.

The two of them said a few more things. After a while, they saw Cao Ying bringing two maids over, first asking Sun Wencheng for peace, and then meeting Cao Yong later.

Cao Ying was wearing a cheongsam that was fresh and bright after the rain. Her hair was combed smoothly and she was wearing two velvet flowers. Except for a pair of jade earrings on her ears, there was no jewelry around her body.

Looking at the two maids behind her, they were all dressed in old clothes and did not have the dignity of a maid from the house.

Sun Wencheng looked at the outfits of the master and servant, sighed and said to Cao Ying: "Your brother is a rare trip, please talk with me." After that, he said to Cao Yong: "Sit for a moment, I will have tea with you later."

Cao Yong stood up and said, "Cousin, let's rest. My nephew will say a few words to my sister and then reply. I won't have to wait until I get back."

Sun Wencheng was confused at this moment, nodded and said, "In this way, I won't give it to my nephew. I'll ask your cousin to give it to you later."

Cao Yong agreed and watched Sun Wencheng leave.

Cao Ying was a little afraid of this cousin. Seeing that he had a very familiar relationship with his father-in-law, she ignored it in her heart.

Cao Yong looked at her carefully for a few seconds, his face was thinner than ten months ago, and his eyes were blue and black. Thinking of the "Fu Shou Paste" mentioned by Chu Yu, he couldn't help but frown.

Seeing his cold eyes, Cao Ying couldn't help but say embarrassedly: "How can Brother Yong come here for free? I think I'm tired when I go back and forth to the imperial tomb. It's better to take a few more days off."
