Whenever this matter is mentioned, Xiaocao always finds it funny and moved. The godfather, who was a big and rough man, ran to the emperor crying and crying, just to stay and watch her get married with his own eyes.
These years, godfather really treats her like a daughter-in-law. If there is any delicious food, fun things, clothing materials, jewelry and so on, he will think about her and give her a copy. Even after having Linlin, it has never changed. Sometimes, it's better to treat her than to treat her own son. The godmother also thought that she had never been an outsider, and taught her a lot in dealing with people, dealing with people, and being a housekeeper.
There is also Fang Haolin's little friend, who always thought she was his biological sister, and once competed with Xiao Shitou for favor. However, the little stone is too big, and he doesn't bother to compete with a brat. Fang Haolin has always been very close to this elder sister. When the elder sister is around, even his own mother has to stand aside. Having an extra pair of parents hurts, Xiaocao feels very happy.
If she had the choice now to go back to the 21st century or stay, she would definitely choose the latter without hesitation. Because, there are people who love her and her love here!
"Miss, Old General Zhao and General Zhao and his wife are here!" Accompanied by the sound of hurried footsteps, the little girl on the second door rushed over and replied crisply.
"Grandpa Zhao and Uncle Zhao are here? And Aunt Zhao? I have to greet her personally!" Yu Xiaocao asked Su Ran to rest on the rocking chair she used to lie down on, and hurried to the second gate by herself. Seeing that the little girl cared so much about Zhao and his son, Zhu Junyang also followed her. There is no male host at home, so he has to help entertain male guests.
However, when he saw a group of people from a distance, he knew that he was worrying too much. The godfather of the little girl was following Old General Zhao respectfully, listening to teachings at any time!
"Grandpa Zhao, Uncle Zhao, long time no see, Xiaocao misses you very much!" In front of the elders, Xiaocao has always been a sweet and lovable little girl. Although it was nearly ten years ago, seeing that familiar face made her feel like returning to Dongshan Village. When her family was in the most difficult time, Grandpa Zhao's family opened the door to her warmly and gave their family a lot of help. Sending charcoal in the snow is the most precious friendship.
"Little grass girl, you have become a big girl in a blink of an eye. At the beginning, when Grandpa Zhao left Dongshan Village, you were only so tall and pitifully thin. You finally got prey, and you were reluctant to eat them. You hid them all in our house and secretly Take it to the town and sell it. At a young age, you can pocket money, no wonder you are good at doing business!" Old General Zhao gestured towards his waist with his eyes full of jokes intimate.
"Grandpa Zhao~" Yu Xiaocao stepped forward and took his calloused hand, shaking it vigorously, with a look of reluctance, "Didn't the family be separated at that time? If you take the prey back, you won't be able to eat a bite." In my mouth, after being sold, the money will not fall into our pockets. Of course, it is the right choice to sell it and get the money!"
General Zhao also smiled and said: "I still remember, the little girl was greedy, so she took the pheasant she got, asked Auntie Zhao to help cook it, and ate it secretly like a little mouse. Eat it by yourself, and don't forget to give it to me." Parents, brothers and sisters keep some. What did I say at the beginning? Yu Hai and his wife will definitely enjoy the blessing of daughters in the future, isn't this all fulfilled?"
"Uncle Zhao, he is not like a little mouse! Have you ever seen such a beautiful and cute mouse?" Yu Xiaocao spun around, showing off her newly made goose-yellow dress, showing a very energetic look. one side.
"It's beautiful now, but back then—the mice had more meat than you!" General Zhao laughed.
Fang Fangzhen listened from the sidelines, with a distressed expression on his face: "Oh! Poor child, I was too late to go to the godfather, and I made this child suffer so much! That old woman named Zhang treated our Cao'er so harshly, Then he shouldn't have spared her so easily!"
Zhao Auntie smiled amiably at the side: "What are you doing now that you bring up the unpleasantness of the past? How can you get the fragrance of plum blossoms without going through a bit of cold? Now Xiaocao is not suffering and getting rewarding? Not only is the business booming, Many ladies competed to make friends, and even became the first female officials in the Ming Dynasty, and now they are all fourth-rank officials, maybe one day they will catch up with you."
Uncle Zhao smiled even brighter: "Then I have to work hard to avoid being surpassed by the juniors, how embarrassing it is!"
"Blue is better than blue, you should be proud of having a junior like me!" Yu Xiaocao grinned, revealing white and neat rice teeth, "By the way, I heard that Brother Han has now been promoted to President Qian ? He relied on his own strength to work it out step by step! He is much more promising than me!"
"You are only a small military officer of the sixth rank, and you just killed a few pirates. How can you do it? It's a major event that benefits the community and benefits the people!" General Zhao gave her a thumbs up.
"Uncle Zhao, let's stop complimenting each other like this! The flower hall inside has prepared high-quality tea, and the tea leaves are roasted by myself, and the taste can barely be tasted!" Yu Xiaocao took Aunt Zhao's hand and called the guests to come. Go to the living room.
When passing by the wisteria trellis, everyone naturally saw Su Ran dressed in white. Although his face was pale, he couldn't hide his elegance. Zhao's father and son knew that he was still seriously injured, but they didn't expect that Mr. Su dragged his sick body to attend Xiaocao Zhangluo's welcome banquet. It seems that Xiaocao's face is quite wide!
"Old General Zhao, General Zhao, I'm sorry that I'm sick, so it's inconvenient to get up to greet them." Su Ran gently apologized to them, not as cold and withdrawn as the rumors said.
"Director Su, you don't have to be polite, your body is important!" Old General Zhao also heard about Su Ran's body, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to recover, so he responded politely while regretting it.
A group of people entered the flower hall and sat down, and the mellow tea was presented, and of course the desserts made by Xiaocao were indispensable. When everyone was reminiscing about the past, they accidentally mentioned Su Ran's injury, and heard Xiaocao swear that she was sure to cure him.
Aunt Zhao said with some concern: "Xiaocao, Auntie has never regarded you as an outsider. You are still young and inexperienced. You can't talk too much, lest you be hated if you don't say anything. Mr. Su's injury, even the imperial physician You can’t do anything, even if you have a good treatment plan, you can’t do it all…”
"Aunt Zhao, thank you for your reminder. I know, you are worried about me! But don't worry, I am 100% sure that I can treat Mr. Su's body like an ordinary person." Yu Xiaocao took it A plate of fruit mousse was delivered to Auntie Zhao, with a warm glow in her eyes.
"Okay, as long as you know it in your heart!" Mrs. Zhao knew that Xiaocao was not the kind of person who would talk about it, so she smiled at her reassuringly, took a sip of the dim sum, and praised, "Xiaocao is really ingenious. The dim sum is exquisite and beautiful, making people reluctant to eat it. The taste is nothing to say!"
"Auntie, I have done a lot, you can take some back later." Yu Xiaocao snuggled up to Auntie Zhao's side, just like she was in the stone house halfway up the mountain in Dongshan Village when she was a child.
Although Old General Zhao is a general, he has a special liking for tea. At this time, he is immersed in the fragrant and mellow tea fragrance, savoring the unique taste of tea carefully. After taking two sips, he looked at Xiaocao and said, "You girl, when you were in Dongshan Village, you knew how to pick tea and make tea. After so many years, Grandpa Zhao, I have been thinking about your tea. Outside The tea I bought, even the most expensive ones, can't taste like you!"
Of course, other teas are not as good as the wild tea she roasted by herself. Because other tea masters don't have the big cheating tool of Xiaobutianshi! It's not that she brags, even the most precious Dahongpao in the palace, it's hard to compare with her tea!
"Grandpa Zhao, I have made more than ten catties of spring tea. If you don't think my wild tea is crude, you can take two catties back to drink. When spring comes next year, I will make more and have someone take it to the border for you. In the future, I will pay for all the tea you drink!" Xiaocao has always been generous to those she approves. Isn't it just tea? The dozen or so old tea trees in the back mountain of Huangzhuang are more than enough for her to make tea.
Old General Zhao nodded in satisfaction, and continued to taste the tea quietly. General Zhao asked Yu Hai who had a life-long friendship back then: "Little grass girl, is your father okay now? There is no hidden danger left by the previous injury, right? Back then, if your father hadn't been righteous, I wouldn't be here now." 'General Dragon and Tiger'!"
"Uncle Zhao, my father is now physically stronger than before. Even if he can carry more than a hundred catties of wheat seeds, he can still trot all the way! The big stall in Tanggu Farm is run by him and my brother. My father often I was thinking about you, saying that if you hadn't taught him hunting skills and let him hunt some prey from time to time to subsidize the family, maybe I, an unfavored girl, would have died of starvation and disease! At that time, if my father was in danger , Uncle Zhao, you will make the same choice. Why don’t you call him a brother?” Thinking back to the most difficult time at home, Xiaocao felt so sad. Fortunately, he took advantage of that opportunity to divide the family, otherwise he would not be able to get rid of that leech-like vampire!
"By the way, my father arrived in the capital the day after tomorrow. If he knows that you have returned from the border, he must be very happy." Yu Xiaocao suddenly remembered that the news of Grandpa Zhao and Uncle Zhao's return to Beijing seemed to have been omitted in her letter , I was annoyed for a while.
General Zhao Bufan laughed, and said: "At that time, I will have to drink a few more glasses with your father. I heard that the strong wine produced by Yuji has a unique taste and a very good sales volume. Even if you have money, you can't buy it. You, Uncle Zhao, and I have been thinking about it for a long time!"
"Don't worry, Uncle Zhao, this good bartender is sure to take care of it today! Others can't buy it, so can my family drink it?" Yu Xiaocao knew that Uncle Zhao's only hobby was to have a few drinks. Anyway, for a long time to come, Uncle Zhao will stay in the capital. With the relationship between the two families, is he still worried about not being able to drink good wine
