Chapter 1172 Complete

Qingyuan City, Governor's Office, inner house.

"Residence in Shengjing?" Li asked with some confusion, "The prince of the royal family, can he leave Beijing for so long?"

Cao Jia came to his family and mentioned that he had sacrificed his ancestors with Nersu, and lived in the old palace of Shengjing, and returned to Beijing later. He also brought a lot of specialties outside the pass, most of which were mountain delicacies and wild game.

Li thought something was wrong. If the royal family stayed outside the pass during the early emperor, and then went to Rehe to welcome the emperor's lord, and followed the entourage to escape the summer heat. Now this emperor is not only very diligent, but also has a very hard life.

He was reluctant to let him take more than 100,000 people and spend millions of money to escape the summer heat outside the pass every year.

"My brother-in-law is hereditary. Unlike ordinary royal princes, she has a grant of a mansion in Shengjing. The two concubines of the old prince were retired in Shengjing's palace. Now the eldest prince has become the prince and someone in the palace is in charge of the prince. Sister, brother-in-law is naturally willing to be free outside for a few days." Cao Yong said.

Chu Yu also said: "The royal family is always encircled in Beijing. If you have the opportunity to breathe outside, of course you are reluctant to come back."

After hearing this, Li nodded and smiled, "This is the reason. It's better to be calm and comfortable outside than to be calm and comfortable when you are in Beijing."

Cao Yong and Chu Yu sat with each other for a while before returning to Wutongyuan.

The couple lost their relaxed and smiles on their faces, and Cao Jia's letter also mentioned something.

He said that it was Nersu's intention and wanted to tell Fuxiu that he was close to him. Cao Jia was determined to let Tianhui be his wife, and for the last time he mentioned this matter to his younger brother and sister-in-law.

If the couple still refuse to agree, they must choose another lady.

The couple is not dissatisfied with Fu Xiu's engagement.

Even if the couple refuses to "get kinship" for their daughter's sake, how can it not make people feel guilty if they let down Cao Jia, who has always loved Tianhui?

Cao Yong has already talked about the harm of getting married in close relatives, and Chu Yu would not foolishly ask her husband if he could change his mind.

In fact, Cao Yong did not feel uncomfortable about getting engaged to Fuxiu, but because Cao Jia asked his younger brother in his letter to find what kind of family he wanted to find for Tianhui.

Instead of promising it to the Lord's House, a wealthy family, and being a trembling bride, where can I marry into the royal palace and my aunt become a mother-in-law.

What kind of family should I choose for my daughter?

Cao Yong felt uncomfortable when he thought of this problem. The ethics of men in this era are really worrying.

"Sister, my brother-in-law is probably going to stay for a long time this time, so I asked people to prepare more things and send them over earlier." Cao Yong said.

Chu Yu nodded and said, "Okay, the second aunt and the prince came out of Beijing in the name of going out to worship, and the things they brought may not be complete. With this yuzi, it is just right for people to give more things..."

The couple were talking when they heard whispers coming from the yard.

Then, a maid replied at the door: "Master, Madam, the girl is here..."

Chu Yu hurriedly called in, and Tianhui, dressed in pink and blue flag costume, came in openly.

Seeing the pretty little face of her baby daughter, Cao Yong and Chu Yu's mood also improved a little.

"Father, mother!" Tian Hui said with great blessing.

Chu Yu waved at her, called her to her side, and said, "It's so happy that you've received a good thing, tell us."

Tianhui carefully took out a pair of colorful bracelets from her purse and gave them to Chu Yu.

Chu Yu felt heavy, and Cao Yong had already recognized it: "Huh? It's this pair of bracelets."

It is a diamond-set bracelet with five-color diamonds inlaid on it, each diamond is the size of a peanut. Although diamonds today are not as valuable as they will be three hundred years later, they are far more expensive than other gems due to their scarcity.

This pair of bracelets was one of the dowries that Cao Jia had put in. The bracelets were made by foreign craftsmen who Cao Yin sent someone to Guangzhou. At that time, all kinds of gem bracelets and collars were made of boxes, and this bracelet was the most exquisite and precious.

Cao Yong once read it back then and was amazed. He thought diamonds were from foreign countries, so the price was expensive. He let his sister laugh at him for a long time and showed him a geography book. He realized that China also produces diamonds.

However, the pair of bracelets like Cao Jia are rare, and they can be worth at least 18,000 taels of silver.

At this moment, Chu Yu also recognized that this was the bracelet that Cao Jia had once brought. He glanced at her husband and said, "This is too expensive."

"This is my aunt's favorite, and my daughter dare not accept it at will." Tianhui's face did not have the joy of receiving the gift, but instead added a little solemnity.

Chu Yu put the bracelet aside with a mat, and asked, "Did the second aunt ever say that she would give you this bracelet?"

When Tianhui heard this, she felt a little uncomfortable on her little face, lowered her head and said softly: "Auntie once said that when her daughter grows up, she will give her this pair of bracelets to her daughter..." At this point, she raised her little face, her eyes couldn't hide her worries, and asked: "Father, mother, did your aunt encounter difficulties... Why did this diamond bracelet be given as soon as she said it? Although my aunt didn't say anything in the letter, her daughter always felt uneasy."

She was thirteen years old and half of her life. She lived in the Pingwang Mansion for more than half a year. She had a deep relationship with Cao Jia's aunt and nephew, and was not inferior to her biological mother and daughter.

Cao Yong shook his head and said, "There is no difficulty, don't think randomly. The Han family's etiquette is that the daughter is fifteen and the hairpin is adult; in the whole family, the girl is thirteen, and you can get out of the box. You are already thirteen this year, and you are no longer a child..."

Tianhui looked at her mother again. Chu Yu was afraid that her husband would be there, so her daughter was restrained, so she said, "There are few people wearing diamond jewelry. I didn't think it was like this bracelet now. Now I see how many of them are here. Come and see if there are any ones you like." While speaking, she led her daughter to the inner room and sat down in front of the dressing table.

Seeing his wife's actions, Cao Yong knew that his wife had something to say, so he got up and went to Dongshu.

Chu Yu opened the dressing box and found a few diamond jewelry. Two diamond rings were as big as lotus seeds, and a diamond collar buckle, which was made of a plum blossom inlaid with a diamond sized mung bean.

Tianhui took it, but was a little absent-minded and whispered: "Mother, hasn't my aunt really encountered difficulties... My uncle has been idle in the palace for two years. Is it... Is it because he blamed me in the palace..."

She was taught by Cao Jia when she was young and was much more knowledgeable about political affairs than ordinary ladies.

Chu Yu stroked her shoulders and explained, "Your uncle is the king of iron hats and has military achievements. The family is in a stable position. Now it is the time when the solar terms change and the body is prone to illness. You must not be too serious. If you really worry and hurt your body, not only will I be worried and worry about it, but your aunt knows it, but also you should care about it."

Although Tianhui was still confused, she saw that her parents were calm and worried, so she thought that even if her aunt was a little unusual and had nothing to do, otherwise her parents would be anxious.

Then she answered obediently: "My daughter knows she is wrong."

When Chu Yu saw his daughter's expression was peaceful, he felt a little worried. Cao Jia's desire to get married has not stopped for a while, and Tianhui is more sensible than children of the same age. If a few words fall into her ears, then...

She said casually: "Speaking of this, your aunt's house may have to hold a wedding again... The Fourth Prince is also at the age of getting married..."

When Tianhui heard this, she smiled slightly and said, "It's great. When my daughter was in the palace, my fourth cousin treated her the most. When my fourth cousin got married, my daughter would have to give her a generous gift."

When Chu Yu saw his daughter smiling like a flower, he also smiled and said, "It's my duty."

Tianhui joked and looked at the clock and said, "Auntie is going to do work with her daughter, so let her daughter take her back first."

"Don't hurt your eyes too much..." Chu Yu gave a few soft instructions before letting his daughter go.

When Cao Yong heard the movement, he came from the east room and thought to his wife, saying, "Tell my daughter, Fuxiu is going to say he is kissing? How about my daughter?"

Chu Yu nodded and said, "I smiled and said I would prepare a gift for Fuxiu."

"Wouldn't that be better? I'm really worried that my sister wouldn't be scruples in speaking. She would say it in front of the children, which would make them have thoughts in their minds." Cao Yong sat down and said.

It's not that he is old-fashioned, he is guarding against his daughter and nephew.

But in this era, the relationship between them was closed. In addition to family members, the outsiders Tian Huineng met were only a few cousins ​​and cousins ​​among relatives.

Chu Yu sighed and said with some concern: "Tianhui is not Xiyan's temperament, but today is much more lively than usual."

Cao Yong disliked and said, "She has been an idea since she was a child. If she really cared about Fu Xiu, she wouldn't be the only one. She would tell us directly."

Chu Yu was very dissatisfied with this.

My daughter is so frivolous that even if she is happy in other matters, she will be nervous about her worries. Who can be generous?

It’s just that the man is careless and can’t explain these words to her husband, so she won’t swear.

In the afternoon, when he asked Niu Niu to go back after finishing the needle and thread from Tianhui, Chu Yu asked someone to come over and invite Niu Niu to talk.

In recent years, Tianhui has grown up and started to learn from the female red housekeeper, and is with Niu Niu every day.

If Tianhui had any worries, maybe she could hide them from Chu Yu's mother, but she could not hide them from Niu Niu.

Chu Yu told Fu Xiu about his marriage and asked Niu Niu: "What's wrong with Tianhui going back in the morning? My sister also knew that the second aunt intended to marry Tianhui for Fu Xiu in her early years. Among the cousins ​​in the royal palace, Fu Xiu was the closest to Tianhui."

In Niu Niu's eyes, Tianhui is her niece and a girl.

It was related to Tianhui, and she also brought solemnly, saying, "I had arrived when Tianhui returned from her sister-in-law. Looking at Tianhui's expression, she felt a little sad, but she also brought a kind of relief."

Chu Yu heard this and said in surprise: "Why is this?"

"I feel strange to my sister-in-law, so I asked. Tianhui said that she was reluctant to think that Prince Fuxiu would play with others in the future. But if Prince Fuxiu didn't talk about marriage, Miss Ziyue would probably not be able to keep it and was driven out by Fujin. She is one of Prince Fuxiu's two favorite girls. If she was driven out, Prince Fuxiu would definitely be very sad. Now this is great. With Prince Fuxiu's daughter-in-law, Prince Fuxiu no longer has to be driven away for the people around her." Niuniu said.

Chu Yu did not ask more details, but he also understood the reason.

The prince of the prince's house has many maids and maids who serve him. In recent years, the blessings have become popular, and it is common for someone around him to have other thoughts.

Listening to Tianhui's words, Cao Jia once chased Fu Xiu's favorite maid.
