The lady may not be human

When the two arrived at the Cao Mansion, the Cao Mansion had already hung up beaming red lanterns, and the maidservants and servants were also smiling.

Seeing Dong Nuan coming, the servants greeted them, and the maidservant beside Mrs. Cao took Dong Nuan and them to the table.

At this moment, the banquet has not officially started, and almost none of the elders came over. The family's posture is relatively relaxed, not so tense.

Moreover, today the people in the mansion are all their own people, and there are no outsiders around, so they are relatively more at ease.

Seeing Dong Nuan's young couple come in, Qiao Shi took the initiative to stand up, and Cao Cheng also stood up, carefully supporting Qiao Shi.

Qiao's belly is not small, and her due date is in February of the new year, a month or so later than Zheng's.

The two of them have big stomachs now, and the roads are slippery in winter. Recently, they walked around the house and seldom went out for fear of accidents.

Seeing her standing up, Dongnuan took off her cloak and jacket, handed them to the servants, walked quickly, and supported Qiao with a smile: "Sister-in-law is like this, but I will be shocked."

"Oh, Sixth Sister is really good, she's used to teasing me." Compared to Zheng Shi's nervousness, Qiao Shi, who had already given birth to a child, didn't have too many scruples.

Now being teased by Dong Nuan, she is not angry, but only laughs and jokes.

Cao Cheng laughed and laughed, and it was inconvenient for Mrs. Zheng to stand up, so Cao Feng took the initiative to stand up, and Cao Kun and Cao Zhuo also stood up to greet them.

After exchanging greetings for a while, everyone entered the table.

When the elders didn't come, the younger generation chatted relatively easily.

Most of the conversations between Hanjianglou and the Cao family brothers were about knowledge, and now the brothers of the Cao family are all focusing on the Chinese New Year exam.

Cao Kun and Cao Feng failed the rankings, and now they have to stare at the remaining two in the family who are already qualified to participate.

"I heard that old Mr. Wei will return to Beijing during the New Year's Eve. If I can get his advice, I think it will definitely benefit me a lot."

"I also heard that my grandmother said that my grandfather had some friendship with him. If he comes back before the exam, he will definitely come to ask for advice. You should also show more."

……

The first one to speak was naturally the eldest brother Cao Cheng and the others. He was from the past and knew a lot.

After that, there were Cao Feng and Cao Kun who failed the rankings. They still had great hopes for the two of them.

Maybe for a moment, there will still be jealousy or envy in my heart.

But it will converge soon.

After all, one prospers all, one loses all.

They are brothers from the same family, and when the others are promising, they will definitely bring them along.

Moreover, they are still young and have infinite possibilities.

The men chatted about knowledge, people's livelihood, officialdom and other things.

And the women talk about things like parents' short stories and children's livelihood.

Qiao Shi held Dong Nuan's hand, laughed and joked, "You don't want a child?"

Dongnuan and Hanjianglou have been married for more than a year, but they still have no children. The two of them are not in a hurry. Qiao Shi and Zheng Shi were quite worried at first.

But seeing that the two of them were not in a hurry, they slowly calmed down.

Afterwards, I heard that Dong Nuan said that I don’t plan to ask for it for the time being, because if I pass the Hanjiang Building’s exam, Hanjiang Building wants to put it outside. Children, it is really not easy to take care of.

I know that they are not in a hurry, but it is a habit to make this kind of thing happen.

When we met, I thought about asking a few more questions.

"Don't worry, you are still young." Dong Nuan is not in her twenties now, so she is really not in a hurry.

So, when Mrs. Qiao asked, Dongnuan smiled obediently, and at the same time raised her hand to touch Mrs. Qiao's belly: "Sister-in-law, you have to take good care of yourself. I will see your husband's lovely children, and I will give birth to you later." , maybe with good luck, the birth will be fast and good."

The level of Dong Nuan Dian Shui is not bad, so after talking to Mrs. Qiao, I don't forget to turn my head and say a few similar words to Mrs. Zheng, and promise to do it, so as to coax the two sister-in-laws well.

After all, Mrs. Zheng was the first child, so she was relatively cautious. At this time, her emotions were a little tense.

In fact, Qiao Shi said that this is not good for her, and she should calm down and relax.

But Mrs. Zheng is nervous. After all, she is still young and her first child. Mrs. Qiao also understands this kind of thinking.

Among the unmarried girls in the family, only the fifth girl, Cao Xinru, was left, but she was a concubine, and on such occasions, she would generally reduce her sense of existence.

While talking, Qiao Shi felt a little uncomfortable in her stomach, so she went to the toilet after saying a word.

Mrs. Zheng watched from the side, pursed her lips, and said in a low voice: "A few days ago, my sister-in-law gave Fang Zhu beside her a face and lifted my aunt."

This is to remind Dongnuan, don't talk about it, lest Qiao's heart will be sad after listening to it.

After hearing this, Dong Nuan was indeed taken aback for a moment, she looked back at Qiao Shi, and asked in a low voice, "Didn't you lift an aunt before?"

Dong Nuan remembered that Cao Cheng had an aunt.

When Mrs. Qiao was pregnant with her first child, she took a room.

Why is this added now?

She remembered that the Cao Mansion was not a flirtatious person.

How could it be possible that he has mutated in the son's generation?

Regarding Dongnuan's confusion, Mrs. Zheng just shook her head lightly, and said in a low voice: "Aunt Liu was pregnant for more than four months, and she couldn't take care of elder brother, so my sister-in-law thought about it and carried one up. "

Zheng thought of herself after she finished speaking, and felt sad. Although Cao Feng did not agree with her proposal to lift up his aunt because of his studies, and at the same time, his mother-in-law was far away in Liangzhou, so she couldn't control her own affairs too much. It's hard to say too much about one room.

However, Zheng's mother's family is under a lot of pressure. They keep saying that she is pregnant and can't serve her husband, so she should think about him more.

Instead of letting Xianggong mess around outside, it's better to lift up the people around him early in the morning, so that he can control him better.

Mrs. Zheng is actually unwilling. The young couple have only been married for a year, so they are not willing to give up their husband to other women.

Mrs. Zheng has been under a lot of pressure recently, especially after Mrs. Qiao finished lifting, she is now in a difficult situation.

Even though Cao Feng kept saying that he didn't need it, let her not worry too much.

However, if she was really promoted, Cao Feng would not object much.

Most of the dignitaries' mansions in Beijing were like this, and Mrs. Zheng felt that she couldn't resist.

However, at this time, she couldn't help but envy Dong Nuan.

Hanjianglou really treats her wholeheartedly, and there is no one else in his eyes.

Even though Hanjianglou used to be from a low family background, but now he has suffered enough, what a happy life.

Thinking of this, Zheng felt a little uncomfortable, and didn't want people to see the joke, so she held back her tears and said in a low voice: "I'll come as soon as I go."

After finishing speaking, she left in a hurry. Dong Nuan's sharp eyes saw that her eyes were red, and she probably felt uncomfortable.

Dongnuan really didn't understand why Zheng was sad at first.

However, he soon thought of the matter of taking concubines, and suddenly became aware again.
