Powerful ministers are husbands
Chapter 55
The days passed in peace day by day, and the messenger sent back the news that Cao Lv would arrive in the imperial capital at the beginning of the month.Cao Mansion was busy again, the servants were busy decorating the facade and preparing the banquet to welcome the return of the Eighth Young Master.
On the second day of Cao Lv's expedition, Mrs. Cao went to a temple outside the city to offer incense and make a wish, praying for gods and Buddhas to bless her son's triumphant return as soon as possible.Now that the wish has come true, it is natural to go to the temple again to pay the god to fulfill the wish.
Early in the morning, all the female family members of the Cao family gathered in the main hall, talking and laughing, and four carriages lined up in front of the gate, and set off together after Madam Cao came.
"Mom, I want to go too." Cao Baochen held his mother's skirt tightly, twisting his body and acting like a baby.
Cao Fu gently pinched his son's cheek, and coaxed: "Bao'er, be good, when you grow up, mother will take you there, okay?"
Cao Baochen blinked his eyes, "When did you grow up?"
Cao Yin and Cao Rui looked at each other and smiled, thinking that the expression of the chubby Cao Baochen was very cute and funny, Cao Yin said first, "That's when you can marry a wife."
"Ah?" Cao Baochen looked at the two aunts in a daze, until seeing the little aunt stepping into the threshold, he nodded vigorously, "Oh."
"Looking at Bao'er's appearance as a big kid, do you want to be the bridegroom's official now?" Cao Rui teased him.
"No..." Cao Baochen seemed shy, yelled, spread his legs and slammed into the door like a domineering calf.
Cao Baochen thought he was short and fast, and could catch his little aunt by surprise, but Pang Miao had already noticed.
"By the way, Jinxiu..." Pang Miao knew that Cao Baochen was targeting him, so he stopped and turned to talk to Jinxiu.
But Cao Baochen just kept his head buried in the rampage. When he rushed to the door, he realized that no one was there, but he couldn't stop his steps. In the arms of Mrs. Cao who came.
"Ouch." Mrs. Cao was taken aback by such a bump, but luckily she was supported by Yu's mother before she fell down, "You little monkey, what are you making a fuss about in the early morning?!"
Cao Fu in the house heard his mother's voice, trotted out the door, took his son into his arms, and explained with a smile: "Mother, he is angry at my daughter for not taking him to the temple. Children are lively and active by nature, you Don't be as knowledgeable as him, my daughter asked the nanny to take Bao'er back." She called the nanny over, and then hugged her mother's arm affectionately, just in time to see the eighth siblings and the maid standing by the door talking, and for some reason she noticed that the baby boy seemed very not happy.
"Bao'er, you study hard at home today, and we'll bring back delicious candied fruit." Facing her naughty grandson, Mrs. Cao also had a headache.
The nanny was afraid of making Mrs. Cao unhappy and lose her job, so she picked up Young Master Sun and left.Cao Baochen lay on the nurse's arrowhead, and snorted heavily at Pang Miao, rolling his little white eyes so that his pupils were almost invisible.
Once Cao Baochen left, the main hall became much cleaner.Mrs. Cao glanced at Pang Miao, who was standing respectfully by the door, and went straight into the main hall, watching her daughter and several daughters-in-law get up and salute.
"It's getting late, let's go." Mrs. Cao said lightly.
When Cao Yin went out, she saw Pang Miao who was silent. After walking a few steps, she sighed to Cao Rui in a strange voice: "Some people, even if they fly to the branches, they are still chickens."
Cao Rui understood who she was talking about, covered her mouth and smiled lightly.
Pang Miao simply stayed at the end and didn't hang around in front of them, so as not to attract Mrs. Cao's attention by chattering.
There are four carriages in front of the gate, the first one is Madam Cao with Cao Fu and Pang Miao, the second one is the other two sisters of the Cao family, and several daughters-in-law are crowded in the third carriage, and the last one is a simple one. The older carriages are for the accompanying maids.Everyone in the Cao family boarded the carriage one by one, and Pang Miao was about to step down the steps when there was a sound of hurried footsteps behind him, like a little leopard rushing towards him.
Cao Baochen went and returned? !Pang Miao was startled, and immediately wanted to hide. Rolling down the dozen or so steps in front of the door was no joke.
"Oh, young master Sun, be careful to fall while running so fast."
The footsteps disappeared, followed by a familiar tone.
Pang Miao's heart skipped a beat, but he didn't feel the joy of having escaped a catastrophe.He turned his head slowly, and saw a kind and friendly smiling face, wearing a well-fitting and imposing dark hospital uniform, with a tall and strong figure, completely different from the frivolous and prodigal son he met before.He vaguely recalled that the Cao family was recruiting a new nursing home half a month ago... He was not allowed to think about it any longer, and he could only hear the cry of "Wuwu Yaya" beside him.
Cao Baochen was like a crab caught by someone, twisting his teeth and claws, waving his small fists and pounding on Xue Jinyi's chest.
Xue Jinyi is a martial arts practitioner, what can a child's fist do against him?
Cao Baochen yelled and yelled, but before he could scare Xue Jinyi away, he was panting from exhaustion.
Pang Miao knew that Cao Baochen's character followed his mother's. The last incident in the garden plus the loss of revenge in the flower hall some time ago, he deliberately said that the clay figurines were made by sisters An's family. Cao Fu must have taught his son a lesson. Such hatred has accumulated. Naturally, he will come to revenge when he sees the opportunity.
But now is not the time to be reasonable, he gave Xue Jinyi a look to make him let go of Cao Baochen, at the same time, the curtain of the first carriage was lifted, and Cao Fu poked his head out.
"Eight...Bao'er, why did you run out again?" She looked strangely at the smiling Pang Miao holding the blushing Cao Baochen, as if she saw a ghost, "Who are you?"
Pang Miao hurriedly said, "Sister, Bao'er has something to say to you."
"Hmph." Cao Baochen shook off Pang Miao's hand ungratefully, rushed to the front of the carriage, and said softly to his mother, "Mother, remember to bring me plum candy."
Cao Fu smiled, stretched out his hand and rubbed the top of his son's head, "Mum, remember, stay at home obediently and wait for us to come back."
Pang Miao hurried over, boarded the carriage, and before getting into the carriage, he turned his head to look at the gate, Xue Jinyi was smiling and waving to a person, but that person seemed to have not seen him, staring straight ahead, like Pines and cypresses stand still.
"Zhang Mu?" Pang Miao was slightly surprised, but Mrs. Cao's gaze did not allow him to think too much, so he quickly got into the carriage and sat down obediently.
A group of carriages left Cao's mansion under the escort of the guards. Two young men dressed as coolies squatted at the foot of the wall on the street, quickly glanced at the passing carriages, and then lowered their heads.
The Huguo Temple located on the outskirts of the city is the largest temple around the imperial capital, so there are many pilgrims, coming and going like a tide, the smoke billows in front of the Daxiong Hall, the sound of praying and wishing, a long queue forms in front of the lottery booth, and there are also people under the wishing tree. Surrounded by a large group of people, the red ribbons on the tree fluttered in the wind, like bright red flowers, very lively.
A group of guards trotted into the temple, drove the crowd in front of the Daxiong Hall to both sides, and cleared a road enough for two people to pass side by side, so that the female family members of the Cao family could avoid the crowding and come to the Daxiong Hall unimpeded.The host walked slowly out of the palace gate and waited for the female family members of the Cao family on the steps.
Mrs. Cao walked in front, leading the crowd through the crowd, and entered the Great Hall of the Great Hero, which had been cleared away.
The statue of Buddha is solemn and the incense is burning. There are monks sitting cross-legged on both sides, chanting scriptures silently.After burning incense, Mrs. Cao knelt down first, and the others knelt on the cushions one by one.
Looking up at the Buddha statue, Pang Miao couldn't help clasping his hands together under the gaze of the solemn but benevolent eyes of the golden statue.
His wish is very simple, he hopes that his family will be safe and his revenge will be avenged.In addition, if there is any wish...
"I hope Cao Lv will be happy in the future." He said silently, and kowtowed to the Buddha together with others.
Mrs. Cao donated a large sum of money for sesame oil, and had a laughing chat with the host for a while, and then everyone was taken to the back room by the monks, and prepared to eat vegetarian food after a rest.
The three sisters of the Cao family surrounded their mother, talking and laughing enthusiastically, while the sisters-in-law sat silently beside her.Pang Miao excused that he had never been to Huguo Temple and wanted to go out for a stroll, so he was able to leave the wing.After walking a few steps, Zhang Mu reminded behind him, "The second young lady is coming."
Pang Miao and Zhang Mu got into the nearby bamboo forest path, turned a few turns and threw away Guo Miao.
The bamboo forest is verdant, quiet and peaceful, and it is a good place to breathe and relax.Pang Miao walked a few steps, noticed Zhang Mu who was silent behind him, and remembered the look in Xue Jinyi's eyes before he left.
Fanatical love... This slutty playboy finally has a new goal?Chasers all chased to the mansion to serve as a nursing home?
"You know Xue Shilang's only son?" He decided to find out.
Zhang Mu was stunned for a moment, and a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes, "Young Madam met him when she ordered me to monitor the former Ministry of King Yan. He also noticed that there was something wrong with the two people brought by Tong Guanshi, so he came to check."
Pang Miao stopped, nodded and said, "He is quite chivalrous and courageous." But other than that, he was annoying.He took two steps, and asked again: "Is it likely that I want to be friends with you?"
"Indeed." Zhang Mu replied simply, never saying a word.
Seeing that Zhang Mu was not interested in Xue Jinyi, Pang Miao couldn't ask any more questions. He planned to let Xue Jinyi leave the Cao Mansion if he had the chance. His martial arts skills and righteousness are indeed good advantages, but staying in the Cao Mansion would do more harm than good. With such a restless person around, there was no telling what trouble it might cause.
Almost distracted, Pang Miao looked at the time and returned to the wing room. Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the door, he saw the members of the Cao family busy packing up and leaving the Huguo Temple.
Guo Miao looked happy, and said first: "Eighth brother and sister, good news! Eighth brother returned to Beijing ahead of schedule, and has already entered the city."
On the second day of Cao Lv's expedition, Mrs. Cao went to a temple outside the city to offer incense and make a wish, praying for gods and Buddhas to bless her son's triumphant return as soon as possible.Now that the wish has come true, it is natural to go to the temple again to pay the god to fulfill the wish.
