Chapter 941 New Year’s Eve

When he returned to Cao's mansion, Chu Yu was worried about his biological mother's condition. Cao Yong saw that his wife was wrong and thought it was a problem with the Seventh Concubine. He felt it was difficult to interrupt, so he didn't ask too much.

For his two mother-in-law, emotionally, Cao Yong was close to the concubine, but he did not lose his respect for the seventh concubine. According to etiquette, it is almost the same in the seventh prince's mansion.

Now that Hongshu is enthroned, it is common for the Seventh Concubine to feel uncomfortable.

Chu Yu suppressed his anxiety and did not tell her husband. After all, it was the New Year soon, which made her husband worry about it in vain. She packed two good ginseng in the mansion and sent it to the royal palace. She just waited for the New Year and went back to her parents' home to serve her.

In the early years, because he was raised by his mother since childhood, Chu Yu was a little unfamiliar with his biological mother. It was not until after giving birth to Tianyou and becoming a mother that he was even more grateful for his kindness.

Li did not know why his wife was anxious, and saw that she was not mentally energetic and thought it was because of her heavy body. He asked Jinghui and Su Xin from the East Mansion to come over and ask them to prepare sacrifices and New Year's Eve dinner.

Zhao Jia was bored, so she also came to Xifu and pulled Li to talk and play cards. In her spare time, she couldn't help but nag, not only missing her eldest son who was far away in the northwest, but also complaining about her concubine's son Cao Xiang.

Last year, Cao Xiangshi took office and had no time to send New Year's goods back. This year, he originally said he wanted to send someone back. He was about to thirty years old and there was no one to come to Beijing. Zhao Jia was inevitably angry.

I didn't expect that the day before, the people sent by Cao Xiang came to Beijing the next day.

There are New Year's goods, and there are two cars in total. Zhao Jia's name asked Jinghui to read the order, but she was not happy at all, but was furious.

There is no gold or silver at all. Most of them are Henan soil rituals, only a few pieces of Nanyang jade materials, which is worth a few silver coins.

"This little ungrateful wolf has selfish intentions and saves private money..." Zhao Jia said hatefully.

Jinghui didn't have much to say, so she had to remind her mother-in-law to "happy events": "Old lady, Aunt Fourth is pregnant, should she choose a few mother-in-law to serve her? It won't be enough for the couple to go out and have insufficient staff."

Zhao Jia became more and more annoyed when she heard this.

She had been looking forward to her grandson for several years, but there was no news, but Chunhua became pregnant.

"There are insufficient staff, let them buy it themselves. They have a bad conscience and put all the money in secret, but they still have to fill it here?" Zhao Jia shook her head and said.

Jinghui didn't say much, but she knew that she could not discuss this with her mother-in-law, and she had to know about it with her brother-in-law, so that she could not come forward, so that she could not help Cao Xiang's heart and alienate her relatives.

Lu Ju is just a concubine. When she was pregnant when she was outside, the Cao family sent her to the woman. There was no reason why Chunhua, the wife of the main wife, ignored her.

Cao Yong also received letters from Cao Xiang and New Year's greetings from him.

There is nothing else in the New Year’s gift, just a few pieces of good Nanyang jade materials.

Cao Yong knew that he had not sent money to the capital and was quite at ease. Long before Cao Xiang was released, Cao Yong mentioned the danger of this political errand to him.

Although it is a decent job, if it is mixed with local corruption, it will ruin the future.

This is the way to become a master of politics. After three years of employment, you can become a Hanlin bachelor or enter the cabinet and have the qualifications.

He was not worried that his cousin would be greedy for money. He had an early experience in Luoyang Prefecture. The case of greed for the ink occurred in front of Cao Xiang, and Mr. Cao Xiang also had to think about it.

Seeing that Chunhua was pregnant in the letter, Cao Xiang was full of expectations for his upcoming son and daughter, and Cao Yong was not happy at all.

Because of the thought of Lu Ju and Tian Yang's mother and son, perhaps because of preconceived ideas, and Lu Ju used her dowry to protect Cao Xiang in her early years, Cao Yong became closer to them and their mother and son.

I remembered that in the early years, Cao Xiang gave up the imperial examination and promoted to the imperial examination. Now the couple is in harmony with each other. Lu Ju and his son are already behind. It only took several years to do so.

But this is the matter in my cousin's room. Cao Yong, who is the cousin, did not stop his younger brother and his sister-in-law from being kind.

He left his letter and asked someone to prepare 1,000 taels of silver, intending to send it to Cao Xiang after the New Year.

On the other end of Lu Ju and Tian Yang, he had to tell Chu Yu two words to ask his wife to take care of her.

Chu Yu agreed, but he was happy for Chunhua in his heart.

Chunhua looked at Jiaohan, but at a young age, he was generous and calm, which made Chu Yu treat this younger brother and sister differently. In addition, Chunhua was born in a royal family and the two of them were the same ancestors, so he treated her as a sister.

She thought in her heart that she didn't know who gave birth to Chunhua first; she also thought that Chunhua was far away in Henan, which was not as convenient as Beijing.

When they saw Jinghui, the sister-in-law and sister-in-law talked about Chunhua, they were all happy for her.

After all, the wives and concubines have different positions. In their hearts, Lu Ju is favored by Cao Xiang, she is just a maid and concubine. Only Chunhua is the serious Cao family’s daughter-in-law.

Although they were happy, Su Xin probably was afraid that she would be too concerned and would not say more in front of her.

In fact, even Jinghui is troubled by her childlessness. It’s just that her husband is in the northwest, and Zhao Jia can’t nag her...

*

In a blink of an eye, it is the 30th day of the twelfth lunar month.

The inner courtyard of the Prince of Pingjun's Mansion is much more lively than usual. Even Cao Jia's face was full of laughter and joy because Fu Peng returned to the palace from the palace to celebrate New Year's Eve.

Prince Ping was not here, and his eldest son, the royal family, had to socialize everywhere on behalf of his father during the first lunar month, and did not return to the palace until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

A palace wall is separated by, and the number of times we meet each other can be seen clearly. How can Cao Jia not be happy about the reunion of flesh and blood in half a month?

Although he gave birth to four sons, he still had different feelings for his mother.

She knew that what she could rely on in her life was not her husband's favor, but her eldest son.

After Neersu went to the northwest for four years, how could he have no one to serve him?

Although it is not allowed to take women in the army, it is not a secret that local officials are smart and buying a house with foreign houses.

Cao Jia had already received the news and knew that her husband had taken two people to serve.

It was a little sour at first, but then she thought about it and could only let go.

My husband was just over thirty years old and could not be allowed to be a monk. Moreover, he has been frugal since childhood, and has been spoiled and not withstand the bitter cold in the northwest.

When he left Beijing, he made a special trip to bring the chef from the royal palace.

It is a dream to expect someone who can't even stop his desire to abstinence for a few years.

However, even if you take two, you will be like a family member even if you take them to the capital. If you give birth to a son, you will not be able to go to the four legitimate sons of the royal palace.

In Nersu's letter, this matter was never mentioned, and Cao Jia only did not know. It would be boring if he talked about it. Men sometimes had to give him some face.

Fu Peng was fifteen years later. In front of his three younger brothers, he already had the aura of his elder brother. He asked about his younger brothers’ homework and commented a few.

Seeing Cao Jia suddenly realized that when she remembered the scene when she first saw her husband in her early years, she didn't know what it felt like.

Fu Peng has developed a pair of golden eyes in the palace for four years. He can see his mother's sentimentality and comfort him in a low voice: "My mother, listen to the fourteenth uncle's meaning. Ama should be able to return to Beijing at the end of next year, at the beginning of next year. Junggar is seeking peace, and the battle is almost done."

Cao Jia nodded and said, "It would be better to come back earlier. It just delayed you. If you were in Beijing, you might have chosen a wife for you this year's talent show."

In front of the younger brothers, Fu Peng was a little shy and hurriedly said, "No hurry, my son is still young."

When the draft was released three years later, Fu Peng Shiqi was just right to get married.

Cao Jia sighed in her heart. Three years later, Tianhui Eleven was still too young. Her little selfishness might not be able to do what she wished...

Cao Mansion, ancestral hall.

After the Cao family sacrificed their ancestors' tablets, they went to the Lanyuan where Li was to have the New Year's Eve dinner.

Because Chu Yu had a big belly, there were arrangements for this New Year’s Eve dinner.

According to previous years, women have two tables and men have one table.

The seven-year-old Changsheng and Tianhu both sat with the Cao Yong brothers.

Cao Yong didn't feel anything. Cao looked at his little head halfway up, but his heart was sore.

I didn't think that the child was good in my early years. I hoped that my wife would give birth to a child soon, but I just couldn't bear to be criticized by her mother.

When the big night was around, he looked at Tianyou and his "fathers" and "adopted fathers" around his cousin. He was only alone, which made people feel very desolate.

He sat down with his nephew Tiangu, sitting honestly on the chair, watching everyone talking.

Seeing this, Cao Fu felt soft and touched his nephew's head and made a decision.

When the children finished their meal and went out to set off fireworks, and there were only cousins ​​left on the seats, Cao Feng said, "Brother, protect the heavens for me! After all, he is a child, so what if he keeps the door to support the Third Brother? It is always better to have parents to take care of. Even if he is my son, he can still offer incense to the Third Brother."

Tianhu is Cao Shuo's only son. According to the rules, when the East Mansion splits, he will replace the dead Cao Shuo and divide the family property with his uncles and uncles.

If he was adopted by Cao Fu, he would be Cao Fu's son in name and would no longer have the same property.

Cao Yong heard this and said, "Fifth brother, you know that cherishing your nephew is a good thing, but if you don't act like this, it depends on your brother and sister. You don't have to worry about it. You will talk about it when you discuss it with your brother and sister."

When Cao Song was so kind to Tianhu that he wanted to keep his name, but Jinghui was unhappy and left it alone.

This adopted nephew is different from a concubine, and he wants to be raised in the name of a legitimate son. Cao Song is the head of the Eastern Palace and has a title. Jinghui has selfish thoughts and is understandable.

Cao Fu is the youngest son, and he has no titles on his body, so he has a smaller relationship with him.

However, raising children means raising a cat or a dog. If Cao Fu enthusiastically adopts his nephew and has a biological child in the future, it will be a matter of wrongdoing if he doesn't handle it well.

Seeing that his cousin did not nod, Cao Feng's eyes were red. After a while, he whispered: "Brother... I have a hidden secret... I'm afraid that the descendants will have something to do..."

After hearing this, Cao Yong opened his mouth. After a while, he stood up and said, "This is not a place to speak. Follow me to the study to talk."

The two brothers walked to the study room in front yard in silence.

"When did you know? I asked Mr. Fang to check a few days ago? Don't be misdiagnosed, please invite a few good and good doctors to take a look!" Cao Yong asked with concern.

Is it impotence? Or premature ejaculation?

My fifth brother has always been cleansing himself. He didn’t even have a room before getting married. Why did he get this hidden disease?

For men, this is a big problem. At the least, it hurts self-esteem and loses confidence; at the worst, it is tyrannical and unable to recover.

Although he was a cousin, Cao Fu still blushed in this private topic and was embarrassed to say more.
