"Brother."

    "Asheng."

    The twins spoke in unison, then looked at each other. They had just sent Cao Song away at this time, and followed Cao Chi and Cao Yin on the way back.

    "You speak first."

    "You speak first."

    A Sheng blinked, and Cao Cao blinked at her.

     Cao Chi on the side couldn't hold back anymore, he laughed and said to his brother, "Oh, twins are so fun. I will have a pair in the future."

    Cao Yin was more gentle. Instead of laughing at them unkindly, he gave a rationalized suggestion: "Why don't you talk about it together."

    Yes, let’s talk together.

    "Is my great-uncle our biological grandfather?"

    "Are the fifth and sixth uncles our own uncles?"

    The voice is crisp, the articulation is clear and uniform. Cao Chi and Cao Yin stood in place as if struck by lightning. The clever twins knew the truth by looking at their expressions, nodded relative to each other, and said in unison: "It seems to be true."

    Cao Yin didn't know what to do with his hands and feet: "You...oh...how about you..."

    "How do we know?" Cao Cao raised his head and giggled, "Isn't this obvious? Sixth Uncle—"

    A Sheng nodded and said, "You call your father eldest brother. Since it's not the cousins ​​who are ranked together, it is the third house's own ranking."

    Cao Cao chased after the victory, caught the more immature and honest Cao Yin, and began to say: "Sixth uncle, in fact, we have already heard that my father had a hard time under his stepmother when he was young, so he simply adopted it. The grandfather is the heir."

    "Hey, hey." Cao Yin looked like he was about to cry, "It's not what you think. It's not... oh, how can I tell you... Brother, brother, save me ."

    A Sheng's eyes and hands are quick, and he and Cao Cao hold Cao Yin's sleeves: "Uncle Six, what are you doing to see Uncle Fifth? Tell us, tell us."

    After the incident, Cao Cao and Cao Sheng each received a bamboo stick three times on their buttocks. But in the end it was they who figured out the truth.

    Cao Song is really the son of Cao Bao and his first wife.

    And Cao Chi and Cao Yin were born of that powerful stepmother.

    This is also the reason why Cao Chi and Cao Yin feel guilty for the elder brother who has passed out, but Cao Song is honest with them both.

    The surname of Cao Song, who was passed down wildly in later generations, was not groundless. Because Cao Bao's two main wives are all from the Xiahou family of Pei.

      This big tree is already high enough to be able to marry the concubine of the Xiahou family.

    By the time Cao Bao wanted to resume the string, the situation had already undergone a 180-degree reversal. Cao Teng became the Great Changqiu, and Cao Bao himself had washed the mud on his legs and guarded the side. So, the one who entered the door behind was the young daughter of the Xiahou family who grew up with thousands of pets.

    Imagine, as a direct daughter, she has to perform a concubine ceremony on the tablet of her concubine sister who could be called to and fro, and her concubine sister's son still pressed **** his own son's head superior. How could the little princess, who has been carefree since she was a child, have been able to swallow such a breath?

    The young Cao Song became a punching bag for her stepmother and aunt.

    However, the filth between the concubines and sisters is something that men never expected. They only thought of maintaining the in-law relationship between the Cao family and the Xiahou family, and they happily thought that the sisters of the same family were naturally thicker than water, and that having an aunt as a stepmother would of course treat their children well.

    Cao Song once cried to the elders several times, but unfortunately no one believed it. Cao Bao's back house was once again covered by the powerful little Mrs. Xiahou, and there was not even a servant who dared to tell the truth for Cao Song. It was not until Cao Song entered Cao Teng's eyes that he was found with multiple bruises on his body when he was taking a bath.

    The two were shocked.

    Even the father and brother of Sister Xiahou were speechless.

    The Cao family made a fortune too quickly, and this is the first time everyone has encountered such a case of a concubine being a concubine. What else can be done? Naturally, he had to adopt Cao Song to Cao Teng. It's good for everyone to separate the stepmother and son.

    As for Mrs. Xiahou, well, as the marriage bond between the Cao family and the Xiahou family, no one dares to do anything to her. The matter of Cao Song was suppressed, and the public only announced that because of political differences, the three houses were moved to another place and no longer communicated. She continued to be her first lady until she died of illness eight years ago.

    As the older generation passed away one after another, until now, not many people even know that Cao Song was the son of the third wife. Cao Song didn't say it, and the people in the third family didn't say it. Cao Kun, who was older in the same generation, was not a talkative person. If the twins hadn't guessed it this time, maybe none of the younger generation of Cao's family would have known that year. of twists and turns.

    "In short, the father of the second brother is the fourth uncle." Cao Yin finally concluded, "As juniors, we should not gossip about the elders. But the fact is that the fourth uncle saved the second brother's life. "

    "I see." Cao Cao nodded.

    "What do you know?" Cao Bao scolded him, "What does the grudge between the elders have to do with your juniors? We are a clan that suddenly emerged. They will be crushed and squeezed out, and they will be beaten back to their original shape.”

    Cao Cao quickly finished his words: "Although I don't meet much, I like the fifth uncle and the sixth uncle. It must be because of the closeness of the blood itself. I am talking about this."

    "That's right." Ah Sheng helped his brother, "Uncles three and four are not as close as uncles five and six. This is what I say wherever I put them."

    When they said this, they moved Cao Chi and Cao Yin to tears. All day long, I was looking for something delicious or fun, and I was about to support my two little ancestors. Even Ah Sheng found the sense of sight of his childhood in his previous life from this unprincipled doting.

    The month she spent in Cao Mansion in Yingchuan was the happiest day since she traveled.

    It was probably caused by Mrs. Xiao Xiahou's psychological shadow. The three-bedroom Cao family was so innocent that it seemed that they did not have the same Y chromosome as Cao Song. There is only one old bachelor, two young bachelors and two children in the simple mansion, and life is naturally comfortable.

    In a blink of an eye, it's the last festival.

    The day of the spring opening ceremony was also the day to find a master for the twins.

      Aristocratic families, big and small, have to give him a face. Cao Bao held a literary meeting next to Yingshui, and there were hundreds of people, many of whom came from various counties.

    Headed them were the four largest families in Yingchuan: Chen, Zhong, Xun, and Han.

    Of course, many people disagree with this ranking. For example, the Yu family, the Fang family, and the Xu family are also big families, and there are countless lesser families like the Guo family.

    However, population and wealth are not the most important reference factors for family rankings, but official positions and talents. More than 20 years ago, Yingchuan was known as the "Four Chiefs of Yingchuan", referring to the four people Zhong Hao, Chen Yu, Xun Shu, and Han Shao. This kind of name is not passed on casually. Naturally, the most powerful family picks out representatives and puts them together to bundle and complement public opinion resources.

    Is there no one in Yingchuan with higher rank and talent than these four people?

    Of course there are, but none of them belong to top families.

    So, in general, Yingchuan at this time, led by Chen, Zhong, Xun, and Han, is relatively credible.

    Xun Shu and Zhong Hao passed away a few years ago, but their sons are also celebrities. The Xun family has "eight dragons", and the eldest son of the Zhong family is the head of Yingchuan County.

    Chen Yu and Han Shao are not young anymore. One is a private school in his hometown, and the other is an official in a foreign country.

    Apart from Chen Yu, most of the people who arrived at the venue today were young and middle-aged people from various families. From Ah Sheng's point of view, it was the group of people who were about the same age as Cao Song: officials, students, and private students.

    Cao Bao took Cao Cao Asheng, sat on the master seat, and said hello to all kinds of people. Ah Sheng's hands and feet were about to be numb from the frequent salutes, and when everyone was seated, the musicians played the sound of silk and bamboo, and celebrities began to show their tea-making skills in the center of the venue. Ignoring the odd smell of onion, ginger, and orange peel, it's also a delight to the eye.

    A round of tea.

    Two rounds of dim sum.

    Three rounds of drumming to pass the flower shop wine order.

    At this time, Cao Bao revealed that he wanted to find a mentor for the children at home. Of course, it was impossible for him to directly ask "Who of you would like to be a teacher for my grandson" at the table, which is rude and embarrassing. What Cao Bao did was to deliberately manipulate the wine order and let Cao Cao receive it.

     Poems and Fus.

    Forty years later, Cao Cao is very good at it, but at this time, his skill points in this area are obviously not lit. I have to say that Cao Bao is also an old fox, and he has already figured out the twins' skills and talents. Arithmetic is shocking, and his knowledge of the art of war is good. Even the Analects of Confucius and the Book of Songs cannot be beaten. The biggest shortcoming is in literary creation, chess, calligraphy and painting.

    A Sheng and Cao Cao thought about it for a long time before they came up with a poem.

    Children's poems are also one of the pleasures of drinking. Later, when Wang Xianzhi was about ten years old, he also played Qushui Liujing with his parents (Note [1]), but he could not compose poetry and had to drink alcohol. According to the age of the twins, they have been able to drink a glass or two of wine, so it is okay for them to participate in the wine order, and no one expects them to be able to make famous articles.

    But since the poem is finished, everyone will join in and share it with each other.

    At this time, ancient style poetry and Yuefu poetry are popular. The requirements for the number of flat and flat characters are not as high as those of Tang poetry, but they can't have no rhyme at all. It was the first time that the Cao brothers and sisters wrote poems, and naturally they could be picked out by others. But there are still many people who praise the age.

    "The words are all written correctly, and the meaning is smooth."

    "Which is smooth? The first half is still four characters, the latter becomes five characters, and finally comes a seven-character sentence."

    "Hey, don't stick to the number of words, the meaning is smooth."

    "Hahaha, it's not bad for a child's work."

    "No rhyme."

    "It's well written, good arm strength!"

    …

    Cao Cao couldn't understand what was true or false. So he got up and said loudly: "If you can't pass, I will punish you with drinking. You are all celebrities, don't shield me because I am young."

    A Sheng also got up: "I am punished with my brother."

    The adults laughed. Chen Hao personally filled an empty cup and motioned to the maid to bring it over: "Xiao Langjun is so bold and graceful, and please punish him for drinking."

    The twins drank the peach blossom wine separately.

    There was another round of applause on the field.

    Cao Bao took the opportunity to humbly said: "Even if they are young and their talents are shallow, they will not be criticized. I heard that even the beautiful jade of He's family cannot bloom without being carved. The brilliance. If people want to achieve something, they should seize the time to study and live up to the time.”

      Whether or not to take this job is different for everyone.
