Chapter 72 Restaurant (Part 1)

Pingjun Prince's Mansion, living room.

Cao Yong talked to his brother-in-law Nersu, just asking about Cao Jia's pre- and postpartum conditions. After a while, Wen Qin came to pass the message, saying that the concubine asked Cao Yong to go over and talk.

Because Cao Yong's sister was still in confinement, he didn't plan to see her today.

When Neersu heard that his wife called Cao Yong to come over, he smiled and said, "You have been following you for the past few months and have told your sister to be very worried. You often say that you have never left the house, for fear of any mistakes. Since she is waiting, you go over and talk to her. I happened to have something to go to Kang's mansion, and we have a good drink when I come back."

"Brother-in-law, I have an old friend I met in Jiangning who passed the imperial examination and was about to leave the post outside the office. I made an appointment to arrive at the VIP building at noon this year!" Cao Yong said.

Nersu nodded: "Since that's the case, let's talk about it again. Anyway, it's not an outsider, so there is no need to make those polite tricks!"

Cao Yong smiled and thought it was, then followed Wen Qin into the inner house.

The inner courtyard of the royal palace, the main room and the warming pavilion.

Cao Jia wrapped her head in Baotou, put on her clothes, leaned against the head of the bed, looking slightly tired.

Cao Yong called out "Sister", and he felt a little distressed. He had experienced two childbirths of less than nineteen years old, which was really inhumane.

Cao Jia had no choice but to be a mother anymore, so he reached out to greet Cao Yong and sat down in front of the bed, and looked carefully: "It's much stronger than in April, but now he looks like a guard."

Cao Yong sat down and looked around: "Where is the second prince?"

"I just cried and coaxed me to sleep. I asked my breasts to be carried down and placed. This little guy is not as well-behaved as his brother. When he grows up, he must be a monkey!" Cao Jia replied with a smile, his face full of joy and pride.

The child really brings hope, and Cao Yong's mood also improved, and then he couldn't help but tease: "You guy who speaks, you guy who keeps talking, and my sister is still a big child!"

Cao Jia smiled and glanced at Cao Yong: "You think everyone is like you, and you have been spoiled by your grandmother since childhood. On the 15th and 16th, you still have to worry about your mother. Don't be proud. If Jiang Ning had not sent a letter to ask her mother to go back, your marriage would have been settled! When the bride is welcomed back, you should open your eyes and see if it is a big child or a child!"

Cao Yong couldn't help but sigh in his heart, Ouch, what's going on? Why do everyone joke about their marriage? If he is really "older", it would be fine if everyone is worried about the major marriages. He is only fifteen or sixteen now, so why are everyone making fun of it?

Seeing that Cao Yong didn't say anything, Cao Jia just thought he was shy and chuckled twice, stopping teasing him.

Because the room was not ventilated and there were several charcoal pots, Cao Yong was sitting a little stuffy. Just as he was wondering whether this method of confinement was healthy and reasonable, he heard Cao Jia solemnly ask: "Brother, you can send someone back to the south in the past two days!"

"Sister?" Cao Yong looked at Cao Jia, who was slightly solemn, and did not understand the purpose of this sentence.

"At the end of August, my mother hurriedly left Beijing, saying that it was a complicated housework and needed to go back to cook. Although she tried to cover up and asked me to wait for delivery, I saw that there was another reason and it was really hard to rest assured. But after all, I was the daughter who went out and had no reason to interfere in my parents' affairs, and there was always some rules in the royal family." Cao Jia said helplessly.

After hearing this, Cao Yong remembered that he had not received Cao Yin's letter from Jiuyue. He thought that his health had not been good in the past few years, and his heart also sank. What else could he let his mother leave her daughter who was about to give birth and rush back?

Cao Jia sighed: "My father is already fifty-two and he has heavy chores on his body, which is really unreliable."

Cao Yong remembered that when he heard Cao Yin and Li talk about what few of the ancestors of the Cao family had lived for fifty years, he felt sad. However, Cao Jia was in confinement after all, and was afraid that such worries would be of no benefit to the body. He explained it again and advised her to take good care of her before getting up and leaving.

After leaving the Prince of Pingjun Mansion, Cao Yong took out his pocket watch and looked at it. It was still a quarter of an hour before noon (eleven o'clock in the morning). It seemed that time was in a hurry. After looking back, Xiaoman, the Wei brothers, and the other two Changsui waved their hands and said, "I'm going to have a drink with my friends. There is no need for these people to follow. You can go back to the mansion first!"

Xiaoman was salivating and refused to move and said with a smile: "Uncle, there must be someone taking care of the horses, right?"

The Wei brothers refused to leave, which made the other two Changsu feel embarrassed if they should respond or what to do.

Cao Yong knew that this was the sequelae left by his last attack alone. Even in Beijing, the Wei brothers did not dare to be careless. In any case, he had good intentions. Cao Yong took out a silver note from his purse and handed it to Xiaoman, saying, "Since everyone is going to join in the fun, it's okay to go to the VIP building to see it. His signature dish is really good. I'll treat you today."

Cao Yong always had some respect for the Wei brothers. He was the most impatient and rule-bound man in the world. He joined Cao's mansion as a servant just because he repayed his master's kindness and secretly protected Cao Yong for eight years. Now he came to the capital with him. A man in his thirties is homeless and alone. Cao Yong really didn't know whether to admire the loyalty and righteousness of the two, or to scold them for being pedantic. It seems that he should find two proper people to settle down. Since they are worthy of the Cao family, the Cao family should also be worthy of their brothers.

Front door, Dashilan, VIP building.

Because it wasn't until the meal was still there were not many guests in the lobby, only a table of scholars and a father and son.

Cao Yong dismounted his horse and handed the reins in his hand to the servants in the restaurant. The waiter raised his waist and greeted him: "Oh, please come in quickly, are you a private room upstairs or a lobby downstairs?"

After hearing this, Cao Yong looked at the Wei brothers. Wei Hei smiled and said, "Young Master, we are in the lobby, it's bright here!"

Cao Yong nodded and said to the waiter: "Find a place by the window for my family members, and have a few signature dishes, so they can order the others. In addition, a young master named Ning seemed to have ordered a seat, but I wonder if he has arrived?"

The waiter smiled and replied, "It turned out to be a distinguished guest invited by Mr. Ning. Mr. Ning has arrived and asked someone to ask about it just now!"

This waiter is so enthusiastic about hospitality. Is this one of the tricks for the prosperous business of VIP Building?

Up to the second floor, Ning Chun had already received the letter and came out: "Xiao Cao has arrived, so Shanyu is missing!" He followed Ma Jun and greeted Cao Yong again.

The three of them returned to the private room and were chatting while waiting for Yongqing. The word "Shanyu" that Ning Chun just now was the word Yongqing.

"Where is the real thing about Brother Tiancheng? I didn't catch up with the newlyweds in June. I suddenly had two sisters-in-laws, and this is a three-game!" Cao Yong said, and he really admired the memory of the ancients. It's great to use a name in a unified way, but there are rules such as font size. "Tiancheng" is the name of Ma Jun. After he passed the Jinshi, his uncle gave him.

Uncle Ma Jun’s family has no children, and Ma Jun is the only one in the two houses. According to the clan inheritance system, it is a bit like taking two houses with inheritance. In June, Ma Jun married two houses at the same time, regardless of size. One house is considered the daughter-in-law of his uncle and aunt, and the other is the daughter-in-law of Ma Jun’s parents.

Ma Jun married for more than three months and his face became thicker and thicker. He asked Cao Yong with a smile: "Xiao Cao asked what these people do, are they thinking of women? I heard that girls outside the Great Wall are very affectionate, and Xiao Cao has not been flirted with?"

Cao Yong looked at Ma Jun and couldn't help rolling his eyes. The capital was really a big dye vat. How could the young scholar who once said that "if you don't serve as a good minister, you are a good doctor" become such a virtue? It's simply a representative of bad literati. It's a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a disgrace to be a

Ning Chun poured tea for the two of them, and looked at them with a smile, looking pure and harmless.

Ma Jun couldn't see it and said, "Don't pretend to be a good person in front of Xiao Cao. You can hide your love affairs from Yu Shan and me. Your wife has not married, and I have taken several concubines, and I have a lot of fans outside. Even if you are romantic, you have to have a certain degree. You really think that your body is not good. I heard that you have been resting in Haitangyuan for several nights. Which one did you comb again this time?"

Ning Chun smiled and said nothing, and the sound of "thump" footsteps came from outside, and it was Yongqing who arrived.

Yongqing is still in filial piety, wearing a plain and moon-white robe, showing a bit of gentleness.

Cao Yong stood up: "Brother Shanyu!"

Yongqing came in with a smile and patted Cao Yong on the shoulder: "It's a little darker and stronger, and it's a bit masculine. I just regret that I can't get rid of my body when I am filial, otherwise I'll follow me to see you!"

After hearing this, Ma Jun joked: "I'm afraid you don't want to see it, but you're thinking about finding Mongolian men to compete! People in their twenties still like to fight fiercely, so they don't look like a Count's prince!"

Yongqing found a seat casually and sat down, stretched his thumbs to Ma Jun: "Those who know me are natural!" As he said that, he said to Ning Chun: "Jingming, you are going to stay in Beijing for some time this time, right? Otherwise, let's discuss with your father and let you stay in Beijing! With me and Xiao Cao, everyone has a companion!"

Ning Chun replied with a smile: "My father is just thinking about this, but his lack of money has not yet been settled, so he can't consider me for the time being! According to my Yue family's intention, I want me to stay in Beijing!"

Ning Chun's future father-in-law was a member of the Ministry of Revenue. Although his official position was not high, his family background was prominent and he was also considered a major citizen in Beijing.

Ma Jun looked around everyone and said, "Everyone is old now and they all have to work hard on their careers. I still don't know what their future achievements will be?"

Yongqing smiled heartily and said, "A person lives his whole life, just seek freedom and be as he wants!"

Ma Jun looked at Yongqing in surprise: "It's strange that you say this. Now, you and Xiao Cao are both military positions, and I and Jing Ming are both civilian positions. After ten years, we will see where the four of us can go!"

As my friends were talking, they heard noises coming downstairs and the sound of tables and chairs falling to the ground.

Ning Chun frowned, opened the door of the private room and went out, and stood on the stairs on the second floor and looked down.

"Where did the mountain village man from the emperor's feet dare to hit someone?" A man dressed in a scholar stood behind the table, covered his mouth and raised his head.

A man in his thirties looked angry: "It's your fault that I beat you, who made you spray feces all over your mouth? You're careless!"
