"Yes, my subordinates know."
The six nights were planned to respond to the words and salute, and Aunt Liang was shocked, these people were just afraid that they were not ordinary guards.Aunt Liang returned to the house full of concern, but in front of Cao Mo, she couldn't say anything.Well, I'll have to pick a time to talk to Aunt Zhu later, and see what is going on with these six guards.Outside the house, a little girl reported: "Master, Sister Lanyue from Xifu is here." ”Cao Mo said: "Let her in." ”He turned his head and said to Ruoyi: "Lan Yue is the big girl next to the fifth aunt. ”Lan Yue came in, bent her knees, and replied with a smile on her face: "I've seen the fifth master, the fifth grandmother."
The old man came back and said that he was inviting the master and the fifth grandmother to the main hall of Xifu. ”Ruoyi understood that this was for her to confess.Aunt Liang took out all the gifts she had prepared early in the morning and let Zao'er Xing'er take them.Ruoyi got up, Cao Mo reached out to pull her, she didn't hide, she didn't care about other people's eyes at all, and followed Cao Mo hand in hand to the main hall of Xifu with a big grin.When Ruo Yi and Cao Mo arrived at the main hall of Xifu together, the people of the Cao family had already arrived one after another.The grandmother guarding the door watched with surprise as Cao Mo helped Ruoyi get out of the soft sedan chair, walked over side by side, and was stunned before hurriedly going in to report.The main hall was already full of people, except for Aunt Cao, Fourth Uncle Cao and his wife, all the elders of the Cao family were seated.These elders were sent back to their hometown by Cao Ningcheng before they saw the bride last time, and they also knew that the new fifth grandmother was a little special, so they left without saying much.Later, because of rumors of collaborating with the enemy, they hurried into Beijing to see what was going on.On the chair to the left of the main hall sat an old man in a bronze robe.On the chair on the right sat Mrs.
Cao, Mrs.
Cao Si and Mrs.
Cao Si, Cao Ningcheng and Mrs.
Five, and Cao Ji and two young girls.On the chairs on the left sat two middle-aged men in their forties and two young men in their twenties.There was no one in the whole hall to speak, and it was so serious that it made people feel a little chilled.It stands to reason that recognizing relatives is mainly to know all the people in a room, mainly to give tea to the elders.It stands to reason that the Cao family has long been separated, and Cao Mo's parents are dead, and there are no regular elders on it, so there is no need for tea at all.Otherwise, Cao Mo would not be able to fool around on the second day of the wedding.But the relatives are here, and the family recognizes their faces, which is also how it should be.This recognition is not very formal in the first place, and the position is not too particular.The right side is arranged according to the ranking of Cao Ningcheng's brothers, while the left side is arranged according to the importance of the Cao family.Among the men seated, except for Master Cao Si and young Cao Ji, the others are the core figures of the real Cao family, and they determine the direction and future of the Cao family.Hearing the loud voice of the grandmother under the corridor, everyone in the main hall turned their heads to look at the door.In front of him, Cao Mo gently helped Ruoyi up the steps, and the two came in side by side, their eyes full of surprise.Especially Mrs.
Cao, a trace of coldness flashed in her eyes."
There are no rules, the woman actually walked side by side with her husband."
Miss Cao San couldn't help but mutter.Miss Cao Er hurriedly pulled her, and she shut up unhappily.Cao Mo took Ruo Yi to the old man and introduced Ruo Yi softly: "This is the third grandfather. ”His grandfather's younger brother is also the oldest surviving member of the Cao family, and the current patriarch.It was also this old man who came to Kyoto to accompany him for five years, so that he could put an end to the thoughts of those relatives who wanted to wipe him clean.Such an old man deserves her respect.Ruoyi picked up the teacup in Aunt Liang's tray, bent her knees, and prepared to make a big salute to the tea.Old lady Cao San held Ruoyi's elbow with a hand, held her in steadily, and took the teacup in her hand.It stands to reason that he, as a patriarch and an ancestor, can afford the gift of a junior.But he didn't want Ruo Yi to kneel down for him to serve tea, so he didn't even prepare a futon, so how could Ruo Yi really kneel down.Old lady Cao San took the teacup and didn't drink it immediately, squinting and staring at Ruoyi's eyes for a while, Ruoyi was not shocked or annoyed, and let him see.The third old lady showed a smile, took a sip of tea, put the teacup on the small table next to him, raised his finger slightly, and waited next to an old servant with white hair, bowed down and handed the tray in his hand to the old man, the old man uncovered the red cloth on the tray, picked up a piece of inky black Panlong ancient jade pendant and handed it to Ruoyi: "You have to live a good life." ”There was no reprimand, no teaching, just an ordinary sentence, which contained the old man's sincerity to Cao Mo."
Niece, granddaughter-in-law, thank you, third grandfather."
Ruo Yi took it directly and stuffed Cao Mo's hand in front of the person: "You help me keep it." ”Cao Mo smiled and took the jade pendant into his arms, and led Ruoyi to give tea to the two cousins.Joe got two more nice gifts.Ruo Yi followed Cao Mo to Mrs.
Cao and sent the tea.Mrs.
Cao didn't want to take this cup of tea at all, she didn't expect that the things she had calculated for ten years would be cut off by such a stupid girl.Ruoyi didn't wait, and directly put the tea on the small table next to Mrs.
Cao.Mrs.
Cao's face was gloomy, and her tone was a little cold: "This Changle County Lord is really unusual. ”The corners of Ruoyi's mouth curled, "Thank you for the compliment." ”Mrs.
Cao was stunned, she was obviously not complimenting her."
Hmm."
Old lady Cao San muffled dissatisfiedly.Mrs.
Cao shuddered slightly, and heard a little warning.She has been married into the Cao family for more than 20 years, and she knows too well that everything that can be related to the style, unity, and interests of the Cao family is not a half-step wrong.It is true that the Cao family is a scholarly family, but the men of the Cao family are not old-fashioned and pedantic people, and they never think that the backyard is just a matter of women's dependents, and men should not interfere.If she continues to embarrass Cao Mo's wife, she is afraid that the third uncle will punish her to go to the ancestral hall of the clan to cultivate her mind.She hurriedly took a half-new red gold plum hairpin from the girl's hand and gave it to Ruoyi.Ruoyi took it silently, and handed it to Qingyu.That cup of tea seemed to have been forgotten by everyone.The fourth master and the fourth lady were originally from the concubine, and they separated from the family early to live alone, and they have never been in the limelight, honest and duty-oriented, and the affairs of the family have never been chaotic, so they closed the yard and lived their own small life.It's a pity that the girl was raised a little unbelievably thick, so he didn't come to Beijing with a shy face to beg his younger siblings to choose someone for his girl.They originally asked Cao Ningcheng for help, so why would they make any more small moves to annoy people.The fourth old man took the tea and gave a red envelope, the fourth lady took a sip, put down the cup, and gave a set of red gold full of Chi Jiao's distractions, although the appearance is a little old, but it has been fried again, and it looks like there are five taels, which should be carefully selected.Ruoyi took it with both hands and thanked him.t1706231537:
