It was Cao Ying who came to Cao's mansion one step ahead of Li Cheng.

Although the doorman was surprised, the young master Li family came to the living room. As for the subsequent young master, he was led to the living room.

It’s really because there are too many customers coming up these days. The butler will explain to you early, and you won’t lose your etiquette in a hurry.

When Cao Ying got off the car at the second gate, Chu Yu had already received the news and came to the second gate to meet him.

Since the Sun family came to Beijing, Cao Ying has returned to Cao's mansion less often. It's not that she is alienated from her parents' home, but that there are too many parents-in-law on the side, which is not cheap.

Seeing Chu Yu coming out to greet him, Cao Ying slowed down and said with a wry smile: "I am an uninvited guest today, so don't blame me for my brother and sister."

Chu Yu smiled and said, "Grandma is a heretic. In the past two days, our old lady has been talking about my grandma and wanting to pick her up her grandma home to visit her. She just thought that Brother Li was going to prepare for the exam, but she was afraid that her grandma would not be cheap, so she didn't ask anyone to pick her up."

In the current exam, Sun Li passed the second grade and is now preparing for the Shujishi exam in the Hanlin Academy.

When Cao Ying heard about his son, he also added luster to his face and said, "Amitabha, I hope to pass the exam early. It is also heartbreaking to see Brother Li working hard all day long."

While the two of them were talking, they arrived at the gate of Lanyuan and entered the yard together.

In the upper room of Lanyuan, Li sat on the kang, with half a stack of gift lists on hand, all of which were the gifts I received these days. Before these gifts were put into the warehouse, Cao Yong and Chu Yu sent the gift list here. Li picked up the ones he liked and stayed.

Li has been used to seeing good things in his life, and there is nothing that can be seen. He only picked two Buddha statues and incense burners to send to Gao Taijun.

Seeing Cao Ying coming, Li was surprised, and smiled and asked her to sit down, and then made someone make tea and make buns.

Looking at the loving Li family and thinking about Leng Yanyu's mother-in-law who forced her to go back to her parents' home to do an errand for her brother-in-law, Cao Ying's eyes turned red and she almost burst into tears.

She quickly lowered her head and covered her up, "My aunt's house is so warm, it's very cold outside today."

Li said angrily: "Since you know that it's cold, you don't wear more clothes when you go out. Wouldn't it be fun if you're frozen?"

Cao Ying was wearing a crimson river silk gray squirrel leather robe, which was the one that Yingjie was wearing. How could it be cold? But she was so clear that she was a little old and hung on her body. She looked thin and made Li feel pity.

The room was full of glamor, Cao Ying noticed her shabby, embarrassment, blushed, and felt very uncomfortable. Fortunately, Li asked Sun Li, brothers and sisters, and turned the conversation apart, so she did not lose her composure.

Li saw that she was absent-minded, looked at her wife, and smiled and said, "Don't grind my teeth with me, the old woman. Your brother and sister have got a few good things, so you can also go and have a look. You can eat here at noon, and it just so happened that a few wild ducks were sent to the village outside the city."

Cao Ying came here and was talking to Chu Yu about Xiang. After hearing what Li said, he hurriedly stood up and said, "In this way, my niece will follow my younger brother and sister to go through the world for a long time."

Chu Yu also stood up and led Cao Ying to Wutongyuan.

Since Li said that, Chu Yu must have pointed out a few new greetings to Cao Ying.

Cao Ying praised a few words before the two sat down to have tea between the West.

Although Cao Ying is the eldest, she dare not ask for a big shot in front of Chu Yu, saying every word of the family.

After eating three bowls of tea, the color of the tea became lighter. Cao Ying let out a long sigh and stopped going around in circles, saying, "My brother and sister, I really have no choice but to come and ask for my brother and sister."

Chu Yu smiled lightly and said, "Look at what my aunt said, they are all relatives, so we are so polite. If you can help, you will just give me a command; if you can't help, you will definitely not make things difficult for us."

When Cao Ying heard this, his expression froze. After a while, he sneered a few words, swallowed the words he asked for his brother-in-law, and mentioned her husband: "It's not for our grandfather. Now that my son has passed the Jinshi and can get a salary, it's hard to be like me and eat free food at home. Brother Li and Sister Xian are also old, and they are about to get married, and they have to use silver everywhere."

Originally, she was forced by her mother-in-law and asked for help from Cao's family, but when she sat in front of Chu Yu, she felt a little sad when she remembered her situation.

Fortunately, the couple had a broken relationship, and she didn't care whether the husband was good or bad, and she only lived with her children. Now that the children are old, they are at the age of getting married, they have to worry about it.

Even if it comes from an official family, it will be difficult for a father who has lost his morality and lost his official position to get married.

The son is fine, after all, he has fame and fortune. There are two families familiar with each other in the Ministry of Internal Affairs who have made marriages through marriage; but the daughter has no reliance and no generous dowry, so it is not easy to find a good family.

Although she did not shed tears, her expression was even worse than crying.

Chu Yu couldn't bear it when he thought of the difficulties, but he also knew that this was not something he could accept. These days, many people came to recommend people, and some people who made cousins, but they all turned a lot.

Sun Jue is too close to his relatives in the Cao Mansion and is also the eldest son-in-law of the Cao Mansion.

Not to mention whether others have a sense of character or not, just talking about his identity, it is easy to cause trouble if he puts it in the yamen. Those who want to curry favor with Cao Yong will naturally have to choose people who are close to him first.

Thinking of this, Chu Yu put down the teacup and said bluntly: "Grandma, it's not that I rude. Our grandma never allows our family to interfere in business. If our grandma has this intention, we still need to talk to our grandma directly."

It's strange to say that Chu Yu's identity is far more noble than Cao Yong, but Cao Ying is just respectful to his younger brother and sister, but fears his cousin.

Seeing Chu Yu pushing it cleanly, Cao Ying turned a blank face and said, "My brother and sister, it's just an errand for our master. It's so difficult? I heard that many people come to give gifts these days, and outsiders can arrange it. What's the point? Do you want me to prepare a generous gift before visiting the door?"

This was a bit unpleasant. Chu Yu felt a little impatient. He raised his head and ordered Le Chun: "Transfer to the second door, and then said that the eldest aunt was here, and asked the master to come over and speak."

Cao Ying saw Chu Yu's impatientness and felt annoyed. He wanted to get up and leave, but he couldn't bear to give up this opportunity, so he could only look at the decorations around to spend his time...

Front yard, living room.

The sixteenth prince has left, and Cao Yong is talking to Li Cheng.

In August, Li Cheng and Sun Li participated in the exam together. Obviously, his luck was not as good as his cousin, and he eventually failed. However, he no longer insisted on fame and fame as before, and his complexion looked much better than before.

"You can plan for your brother, and you are determined... But have you ever thought about it? Even if your brother gets an errand, he will only have an extra salary to supplement the family income. What's the point of Li Cheng?" Cao Yong thought about it after hearing what Li Cheng wanted.

After hearing Cao Yong say this, Li Cheng couldn't help but be stunned: "What does cousin mean?"

"On your brothers, only you have fame and fortune. If you want to do an errand, you should go and practice it, and it will be cheaper." Cao Yong said slowly.

"Nephew...nephew..." Li Cheng looked a little excited. After a long time of grinning, he whispered: "Nephew knows that my cousin has never liked my nephew. There is no need to make it difficult for my cousin..."

Cao Yong looked at him, and Li Xu and Li Ding and his son flashed in front of him, and the faces of Gao and Li Shi appeared again. He sighed and said, "I just don't like to plot. If a stranger is fine, he will not just plot against anyone. It's just that he ignores him if he doesn't like him. It's tiring to plot between relatives. He makes people tired. In his early years, he saw you act ruthlessly and without any room for anything, and he even thinks you are a selfish and cruel person. After all these years, you are not a heartless person, and you are much more sensible than before."

Li Cheng was ashamed and stood up, not daring to look up.

"I am not trying to support you in anything, but just giving you a chance. If you have a promising future, you can take on the Li family and avoid the old lady's concern." Cao Yong said: "Although the relatives are of a relative, I will not take too much care of you. If you do something careless or don't adapt to the officialdom, no one will indulge you."

Li Cheng was in agitation, tears fell down, and he said with a sob: "My nephew thanked me... thanked me for my cousin..."

It was not that Cao Yong was kind enough to cause trouble for himself, but because the Sun family is getting better now, but the Li family has no improvement. Li can't let go, and even if he didn't say anything in front of his son, he was worried about him when he mentioned the Li family.

Because Cao Yong was taboo about the Li family, hesitated about how to act. After listening to what the Sixteenth Prince said, he thought that he could help.

Seeing Li Cheng losing his composure, Cao Yong waved his hand and said, "No need to thank me, it's not that you can enjoy your happiness. Maybe you will have to live a hard life. If you have the will, you should be more careful in the future, and you can make a name for yourself as soon as possible..."

After all the things that should be said were said, and the two sects sent a message, so Cao Yong did not keep Li Cheng and asked the housekeeper to send him out of the mansion.

As Chu Yu expected, Cao Yong refused to accept Sun Jue into the Governor's Office, and did not think about recommending him to others.

The elders and the superiors are not just a joke. If you take on a relative who is older than you, wouldn’t you dig a hole for yourself?

Like Li Cheng, even if he is holding the name of a cousin, his nephews will have a tenacious position if there is anything wrong with him or her. If he or she is a relative or a relative, he or she will be careful of his or her words.

Seeing that his cousin refused without thinking, Cao Ying refused, and was filled with despair. He added a sad look on his face and said with a crying face: "Do you just let our grandfather be a waste at home for the rest of your life? If you don't say it's supplementary to the family, just say Brother Li and Sister Xian said he's close, but how can you introduce our grandfather together?"

Perhaps, Sun Jue is not too bad in addition to his personal morality. But unlike Li Cheng, he is a smart person. He knows when to do something, and will also grasp people's hearts and will not suffer any losses easily. However, Sun Jue is uncontrollable and cannot stand the coaxing of others.

If he had really succeeded, how could Sun Wencheng have seen his eldest son Xianfu, who was in his prime, be at home, have already arranged it for him...

Li and Gao knew that Cao Yong accepted Li Cheng and were both very happy to do the job.
