Fall In Love with the Technology Tree

Chapter 29: Hu's daughter

    Hu was sitting in the ox cart, holding a jade in his hand.

    It is a chore for the bride. Her wet nurse, Mrs. Chang, followed her in the dowry, and sat next to Mrs. Hu weeping: "What kind of marriage is this? The eunuch's house is nothing, but the house is filled! The previous lady has left two direct sons, we are dignified. Family…”

    "A mother rests for a while, the boat is done and cannot be changed."

    Mom Chang wiped her tears and got out of the car to get water for Hu. It was the turn of summer and autumn, and the weather was still a little hot, and I couldn't stand it without drinking water.

    She got out of the car, and Hu's tears slid down. The concubine's daughter-in-law, and the concubine's daughter-in-law, are all cheap marriage victims. The Hu family needed to marry Feitinghou Mansion, and she was selected in the blind lottery. Taiwei Hu Guang directly ordered, her parents, her uncle, and her grandfather had no room to resist.

    She was also pampered by her family and grew up. She never touches the sun, and dreams that her future husband can be a handsome young man. Who knew that in the end, it was a thirty-year-old man with five children.

    "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid." Hu Shi encouraged himself, "Although he started as an eunuch, the Cao family is very wealthy and has no worries about food and clothing. And the stepsons are still young, the oldest is only four years old. You can't raise a big one. If you can raise your heart, it shouldn't be difficult to raise it. The most important thing is to seize the opportunity to give birth to one by yourself, and not be too different from the older brother's age, so as to be able to compete ."

    That's right, the Hu family wants to fight.

    Although she came from a prosperous family, she also has a family arrogance. A child born by a daughter from an aristocratic family cannot inherit the family business of the eunuch's family, and it would be shameful for her to speak out. Originally, I consciously married lowly, and my heart was full of anger. Everyone is a direct wife and direct son, so how can she be worse than the local wealthy Ding Shi.

    In the Eastern Han Dynasty, luxury weddings were common, and the dowry of the Hu family formed a long motorcade.

    They walked like this for more than a month before entering the Luoyang realm.

    In the ninth month of the lunar calendar, the weather turns cold, but the farmland on both sides of Luoshui that should be harvested is a little listless. There was another insect plague this summer. It was not as big as last year, but it was enough to make the farmers who depended on the sky for food to cry without tears. The dark river water turned upside down, slapping against the yellowed reeds on the bank.

    In the bleak autumn wind, Hu looked at Luoyang's tall city wall and bit his lower lip tightly. She felt that it was not a good time, and all she saw was ominous. It was not until she entered the inner city and saw the bustling streets and the tall golden ginkgo trees at the entrance of the Taiwei's Mansion that she finally let go of the heart she had been holding.

    Her backer is the Taiwei, one of the three princes, and she wants to marry into the Houfu of the capital. Just looking at glory and material enjoyment, this is a step that the girls in Nanjun could not imagine.

    The first time Hu saw Hu Guang, this old man is the pillar and glory of the whole family, and he is as far away as a star for the children of the concubine.

    Hu Guang also felt unfamiliar with his cousin who came from afar. "The current situation is delicate. If you get married as soon as possible, the dust will settle as soon as possible. Fei Tinghou and I can also feel at ease as soon as possible."

    Hu dared not look him in the eyes: "No."

    "Marriage is the best way to have two surnames. You have to remember, be in harmony with your husband, serve your elders, and raise your youngest son."

    "No."

    "Cao Song's first son has the name of early wisdom. Even if you can't give birth, you can have good results if you have good causes."

    "...no."

    He said yes, but Hu was actually puzzled. If the direct son in front of Cao Song is so good that the three princes will miss him, why should he let him marry him? The two surnames are so good, shouldn't the ultimate goal be to let the children of Hu's blood inherit the Cao family business? The first son in front is good, but they can't compete, so why marry?

    The limitation of vision made Hu's thought of watching and helping each other in the coup d'etat. In her life experience, there are no female relatives who can provide her with reference.

    In this way, the bride stepped into the gate of Cao Mansion with anxiety and doubts.

    The main courtyard has been newly decorated, and there is no trace of Ding's left, and Hu is still very satisfied. No matter how reasonable a woman is, once she fills the house, she will mind the existence of her original partner.

    The Hu family originally thought that the loyal servants of the former madam would beat him, but never thought that all the new servants assigned to her by the Cao family, the body deed and the resume were sent to her, so clean thorough. Old servants have to worry about their old masters and backgrounds, but if they are all new people, it will not work well. Putting aside the problem of the newcomers being incapable of doing things, even if they are all talented and smart, but they don't have connections, they won't be able to perform well in the back house. She wanted to inquire about something old, but all the servants asked, and she felt like she was deaf and blind.

    Hu's brows furrowed slightly, this is probably a different kind of disgrace.

    It's really annoying.

    Before Hu's displeasure was over, Cao Song entered the new house. After taking good care of the 30-year-old Uncle Mei, he looked only 27 or 8 years old, far exceeding Hu's expectations.

    She blushed suddenly: "Lang Jun."

    Cao Song was very kind to her young wife, holding her hand and saying, "What's wrong?"

    Hu Shi suddenly did not know how to answer. Undesirable, of course there are, and a box that is still hot is unpleasant. But she didn't know whether to play virtuous, or to ask her husband for an old servant who was familiar with the situation.

    Such a shallow city, even Cao Song could see through it at a glance. He hugged Mrs Hu with a laugh and pulled her to the couch. "If you don't think about it, tell it tomorrow. Tell me, or tell your mother."

    The candle lit all night.

    In the early morning of the second day, there was a routine recognition meeting. The Cao family has a small population, so it is more casual, just outside the spacious room. The plum garden is covered with seats and utensils, and a small mud stove is set up in the center. Tea soup is being boiled on the stove.

    Cao Teng and Wu Shi both met at their wedding yesterday evening, but now they can recognize their faces more clearly in the sunlight. The focus is also on Cao Teng's children. The two leading little beanies with burlap strips inlaid on their coats came by themselves, and their temperament looked very atmospheric. The remaining three small, but also let the nursing mother hold.

    Qing Bo stood in front of Hu and introduced her.

    "This is Dalang Acao, and this is Erlang Asheng. The two of them are twins, born by the first wife."

    A Sheng smiled before saying a word. It is a basic etiquette to look good and brush the face value card. "Ah Sheng sees his mother." After speaking, he secretly hit the brother next to him with his elbow.

    Cao Cao was observing the new lady with a straight face, but he smiled when reminded by Ah Sheng. Mouth full of small white teeth is particularly obvious due to the contrast of skin color. "Meet Mother. Mother looks so young."

    Hu was praised by Cao Cao and covered his lips with his sleeves. "You just looked at me like that because you thought I was young?"

    Cao Cao nodded vigorously: "Younger than me and Ah Sheng's biological mother."

    He speaks candidly, even when it comes to sensitive topics, it is not annoying. No matter how unwilling the Hu family is, he has to admit that the twins are quite likable. She picked out a gift from her wet nurse, Chang Shi, and gave it to her two children—a white jade pendant for Cao Cao and a green jade hairpin for Cao Sheng.

    A Sheng didn't pick it up and pushed the jade hairpin back. "I shouldn't have turned down the gift from my mother. However, I want to ask my mother for a jade pendant."

    Hu was stunned: "Asheng is good, there are differences between men and women..."

    "Cough!" Cao Teng coughed.

    Qing Bo responded with a laugh: "Madam, please promise Erlang." He emphasized the word "Erlang".

    Chang's reacted before Hu's, and quickly picked out a white jade pendant of almost perfect quality and gave it to Ah Sheng. Ah Sheng took it and tied it to the belt. "Thank you mother."

    The twins saluted and sat down on their seats before Hu could figure out the situation. The next person who walked up to her was Cao De.

    Cao De is one and a half years old. He can barely walk and shout. But he seemed to be a shy child. After being teased by the nurse several times, he called out in a low voice, "Mother."

    "Madam, this is Saburo Ade. From the side room, Mrs. Zhang."

     

    Although Cao Daya was a little bigger than Cao Yu, she was last. She wore the simplest clothes, with no accessories all over her body, her eyes were black and shining, and she stumbled on the ground to salute Hu, without saying a word. Her wet nurse apologized apologetically: "The little girl has never learned to speak, please forgive me." Even though Cao Daya was lying on the ground, she didn't dare to help.

    Qingbo also got stuck here: "This... this is a little girl, and she has not been named yet."

    Hu: ...Well, she saw that this little girl was not favored. Is there such a big difference between the girls' descendants?

    That's the difference!

    Cao Sheng's food and clothing expenses, etiquette and education are the same as those of his brother. Normally, because of the issue of inheritance rights, the treatment of the eldest son and the second son is obviously different; but in the Cao family, because the second child is a girl who cannot inherit the title, she can enjoy the same treatment as the boss. .

    Hus had tea and lunch in the plum garden, and when he returned to the main courtyard, he couldn't bear it any longer. "Er...Is Erlang a boy and a girl? Or is he really a girl?" She doubted her eyes now.

    Cao Song held her hand: "This should have been known to you. Erlang is weak in the womb, and some alchemists said that she was destined to overcome Yin, and she must be raised as a man to be safe."

    Hu frowned: "The alchemists are mixed, and their words cannot be trusted."

    Cao Song said with a smile: "This is natural. However, my father asked Tai Di fortune-telling several times to take advantage of good and bad luck. Erlang is getting healthier and better, so it's right to be raised as a boy."

    Hu lowered his head and stopped talking. But when Cao Song left, she complained to the servant girl brought by the dowry: "The Cao family does not understand etiquette, and Yin and Yang can be confused. And she is a beautiful girl who thinks she is a man. If you don’t learn silkworm and mulberry weaving, and don’t know how to serve your husband, you will be ridiculed in the future.”
