Liu Yan has always felt like she has no home since she was nine years old.
Although Cao Cao stopped beating and scolding her five years ago, she still had no sense of belonging and no sense of security in the Cao family. She didn't know when she would be kicked out by the Cao family.
And now, this is her home.
Very good!
From then on, he also had a maid to take care of him, and he had no worries about food and clothing, and he had fine clothes and delicious food.
If she can give birth to a son in the future, she will be the mistress of this family.
hehe!
~~
Liu Yan was so excited that she cried like rain.
Cao Cao stood up, raised his sleeves, and wiped away her tears.
Then, he turned around and took out a hundred gold coins and a thousand iron coins from his package, and said to Liu Yan: "Tomorrow, I will ask the housekeeper to send someone to escort you back to your parents' home. You can take these gold and money back to your hometown." Here, improve the lives of your family members, let them build a house or buy a small wine shop in the city or in Kyoto, and then stop farming in the countryside."
Liu Yan exclaimed: "A hundred pieces of gold? Oh my God!"
Her eyes instantly widened.
She reached out and picked up some gold, held it to her beautiful little cherry mouth, closed her eyes, and took a deep breath.
In the past, she often saw the Cao family's gold coming in and out.
But she has never had a piece of gold of her own.
Now, she suddenly had a hundred gold.
She was moved to tears again.
She really doubts life now, wondering if she is dreaming?
~~
Cao Cao has not spent much money in the past two years.
Before he so-called ran away from home, Cao Mai gave him a hundred gold coins and a thousand iron coins from the accountant.
Later, Yuan Shao presented another hundred gold pieces to Cao Cao.
However, when Cao Cao arrived at Cai Yong's house, he had no need for money.
Cai Yong is too noble and does not want his money.
Cao Cao just spent a little money to buy some rice noodles to replenish the Cai family's rice vat. In addition, Cao Cao went to Yuan's house in Runan.
It didn't cost much to go back and forth.
When he went there, he stayed in a small inn.
When he came back, he lived in the mountains and forests.
Tomorrow, he has to go to Shuofang County. He doesn't know if his father agrees or not.
If he doesn't agree, the cashier will definitely not give him money.
Because of the matter with the Zhenyuan Escort Bureau today, he didn't go.
He is back home now. Before going out, he must first report to his father.
~~
As he grew older, Cao Cao understood more and more that his father was his god.
The sky cannot fall!
In the future, if I want to recruit troops, my father will have to pay for it!
Otherwise, the father and son are at loggerheads. If the father doesn't give him any money, how can he get so much money?
~~
But no matter what, he had to find Cai Yong's whereabouts and Cai Wenji. There were always thousands of reasons for leaving home.
What if my father doesn’t give me money?
Therefore, Cao Cao had to keep a hundred golds aside.
Not every time, Cao Mai can get him a hundred golds.
It's a long way to go to Shuofang County, so we have to spend some money. We also need to find out where Cai Yong is serving his sentence. Do we need to spend money to redeem Cai Wenji?
~~
Thinking that Cai Wenji was still young and had to serve the sentence with his father, Cao Cao felt heartbroken and suddenly burst into tears.
At this moment, he was really afraid that Cai Wenji would also be punished as a slave.
If that is the case, then I will be embarrassed. It may take a lot of money to redeem Cai Wenji. How can I have this ability now?
Perhaps, no matter how much money is spent, Cai Wenji cannot be redeemed.
At that point, force will need to be used.
But what if you have to use force and your identity is recognized?
From now on, I can no longer be an official.
If your reputation is ruined, who will follow you in raising an army?
Cao Cao was overwhelmed with thoughts and cried again.
However, he did not dare to let Liu Yan see it.
Fortunately, Liu Yan was counting money and gold at this time.
~~
Cao Cao took the opportunity to turn around and raised his sleeves to wipe away tears.
He has a master-servant relationship with Liu Yan, but no love.
The matter between the two of them happened on his whim.
He tormented Liu Yan as if she had grown up to be Cai Wenji.
However, the deal is now done.
He also had to give Liu Yan a title and be responsible for her life.
~~
Cao Cao wiped away his tears, turned around, hugged Liu Yan and said, "Okay, no need to count. One hundred gold, one thousand iron coins. In the future, you will have a lot of money, so pretend to be ready and go out first." Eat. After dinner, I have to go to the Yuan family and ask Yuan Benchu to give me an amulet to overcome the problem of the Cai family being convicted. Because I am Cai Yong's disciple, I want to save my mentor and prevent myself from being involved. "
Liu Yan also heard about this matter.
She hurriedly put down the gold, turned to give Cao Cao a sip, and said charmingly: "My husband is really a smart man! Let's go eat."
Cao Cao then took Liu Yan's hand and came to the banquet hall.
He ordered his servants to serve food for the two of them.
~~
One afternoon, Cao Cao was sleeping with Liu Yan, and this matter had spread to the ears of everyone in the Cao family.
Those servants did not dare to treat Liu Yan as a servant.
Moreover, Cao Cao came holding Liu Yan's hand at this time.
The servants quickly bowed to Liu Yan and left as ordered.
~~
While Cao Cao and Liu Yan were having dinner, their younger brothers Xiahou Dun, Xia Houyuan, Xia Houen, and Cao Hong came, and they all looked frightened.
No need to ask, Cao Cao also knew that they were causing trouble outside.
~~
Xia Houdun, courtesy name: Yuan Rang, was a native of Qiao County, Pei State. He was Xia Houyuan's clan brother. He practiced martial arts since he was a child. In the first two years, he successfully practiced martial arts and studied literature under his teacher.
Two days ago, someone insulted his mentor and was killed by him.
Although this incident was well-known in the countryside, Xiahou Dun was also convicted for it.
Killing always pays with life.
Therefore, with the help of several brothers, he escaped and fled to Kyoto, where he naturally came to Cao Song's house.
Except for Cao Song, no one could help them.
~~
Xia Houyuan, courtesy name: Miaocai, was a native of Qiao County, Pei State.
Xia Houen, whose courtesy name is Ziyun, was born in Qiao County, Pei State.
Cao Hong, courtesy name: Zilian, was a native of Qiao County, Pei State.
~~
Because they were still in Qiao County, they often stayed together, and they also studied together under the Thunder Sword School of the local Kunlun Sect.
The Kunlun School originated from the period of King Wu of the Zhou Dynasty and later spawned many schools.
~~
Compared to Luoyang, Kyoto, they can be considered country people.
When they saw Cao Cao at this time, they were somewhat trembling with fear.
After all, Cao Cao was different. He had lived in Kyoto since he was a child. He was the son of a high-ranking official, and his actions and gestures were all extraordinary.
After Cao Cao asked about the situation, he asked them to sit down and have dinner together. He also ordered his servants to add more dishes and asked his servants to find Cao Mai.
But the servant said that Cao Mai had gone out to meet the young master in the afternoon, and the other party was Miss Ding Huiding from the Zhenyuan Escort Agency.
~~
Liu Yan immediately put down her bowls and chopsticks and burst into tears, her tears falling like rain, which was so touching.
She was extremely scared at this time, fearing that she would be kicked out of the Cao Mansion.
In this way, her life would be miserable.
Not only will I be homeless, but what will I do with the child in my belly in the future?
She was extremely disappointed, sad, and heartbroken.
~~
Cao Cao waved his servant away, turned to comfort Liu Yan and said: "I can't resist the orders of my parents and the words of the matchmaker. However, no matter who I marry in the future, you will also be my wife. A man has three wives and four concubines. It's normal, you know. Anyway, the house is huge. If you don't want to see anyone in the future, you can avoid it. The most important thing is that you must be able to give birth to a son, just like that Yuan Benchu. Although he was born as a commoner, his family is still prosperous and wealthy, and his followers are Far more than that Yuan Jiujiu."
Ha ha ha ha!
Brother Xiahou and Cao Hong both laughed.
Liu Yan also burst into tears and laughed, admitting this reality.
It would be nice to be a lady.
Because the wife is the head wife, she has a different status in the family. She has the highest status among the wives and concubines.
Therefore, Liu Yan smiled.
Her pear blossoms are covered with rain, and she is even more beautiful and charming.
~~
And Cao Cao also secretly competed with Yuan Shao.
After all, his father Cao Song was once a prince of the dynasty!
The family will not have less money than the Yuan family.
It is because of the fame of a eunuch that people look down upon him.
Now, in terms of appearance and wealth, I am no worse than the Yuan family. Why is he so popular?
Therefore, he wants to surpass Yuan Shao.
~~
At this time, Cao Song came over after hearing the news.
Xiahou Dun and others hurriedly knelt down and worshiped on the ground. They all said that their uncle is above them and they would like to be worshiped by their children. Cao Song asked unhappily what happened? Cao has been wiping the butt of your unscrupulous descendants all his life? It’s really not a worry.
Cao Cao hurriedly knelt down and interceded for Xiahou Dun and others, and said: "Father, the truth is not as unbearable as you imagined. Yuan Rang's brother is excusable in killing people."
Then, he told Xiahou Dun the cause of the matter, and said that he would go to Yuan's Mansion later and let Yuan Benchu handle the matter. It would be fine for sure, and asked his father to relax.
But please ask the father to reward the child with two hundred gold. The Yuan family is greedy for money, and money can make ghosts grind.
~~
Liu Yan was secretly amused. She had seen Cao Cao's tactics before.
In the past, Cao Cao often caused trouble. Although he was punished by Cao Song, he often took the opportunity to find excuses to defraud Cao Song of his money.
However, at that time, the money Cao Cao defrauded from his father would not be given to Liu Yan, but spent unknown where.
Now, Cao Cao will definitely have his own share of the money he defrauded from Cao Song.
Women, save more money.
Rich men have three wives and four concubines, and are not reliable.
Now that you have money, even if something unexpected happens to your marriage in the future, you will not be afraid of having money, and you will not have any worries about life.
The most important thing is that Cao Mai went to marry Meng De in the afternoon. I wonder how this marriage will go?
If he can succeed, then his status will still be lower than that of Miss Ding, oh, the future Mrs. Ding. Compared with Mrs. Ding's status, his status will definitely be lower. After all, she is the wife of Ming Media.
~~
This Liu Yan has been with Cao Cao for a long time, and she also has a lot of tricks in her mind.
She thinks long term.
~~
Cao Song finally relieved his anger and immediately ordered Cao Mai to go to the accountant to get money to Cao Cao. He glared at Liu Yan again and left with his hands behind his back.
Naturally, it was not Cao Song who arranged for Xiahou Dun and others to move in. Wasn't Cao Cao here? Isn't the housekeeper Cao Mai here?
Liu Yan was glared at by Cao Song, and felt uneasy again. She burst into tears again, and her heart was filled with fear.
~~
Cao Mai returned to the banquet hall and handed two packages to Cao Cao.
He whispered again, two hundred gold and three thousand iron coins, are they enough?
~~
Cao Cao nodded.
Cao Mai whispered again that the Ding family agreed to the marriage.
However, they will escort the escort out of the city tomorrow to Liangzhou.
~~
