Chapter 376: Queen Guo and Trainer Bu, accepting disciples
Hedong County.
Wei Mansion.
Today is the birth party for Wei Cheng's two children.
According to different customs in various places, in some places, guests are invited to have dinner together during the full moon.
In some places, it is about half a month. Generally, it is fourteen days for boys and fifteen days for girls, but there are differences.
The Wei family followed the fourteen-day custom, and a large number of cooks started busy early in the morning.
All the restaurant chefs in the city were invited to help cook today, and they would be happy to be invited by the Wei family. You must know that this is a capital to show off. If they go back and shout in the store, they will definitely be able to cook for the Wei family.
Attracting many gourmet diners.
Dongyuan.
Aunt Niu came over with a large vegetable basket, which contained freshly picked fruits and vegetables. Regardless of appearance or size, they were all carefully selected.
"Madam, would you like to wash the tomatoes you just picked and try them?"
Cai Yan is in confinement. She eats a lot of greasy and tonic food on weekdays. Occasionally she eats some fruits and vegetables to relieve her tiredness.
Especially tomatoes, which are sour and sweet, Cai Yan likes them very much.
Wei Cheng was coaxing Erbao when he heard this and said: "Aunt Niu, please wash it and cut it open, and mix it with some icing sugar."
Aunt Niu was used to the courtesy of Wei Cheng and his wife, so she nodded and went to the kitchen to prepare with a smile.
Cai Yan, who was half leaning on the soft couch, raised his head and teased Wei Cheng, "My husband is always so picky about food."
Wei Cheng was stunned and said in a funny tone: "Isn't it normal to eat tomatoes mixed with sugar? If this is considered picky, then there is no simple food in the world."
Cai Yan pouted her little mouth and explained angrily: "Husband, you know what I mean. I mean the icing is too delicate and expensive. My aunt said that the icing outside is sold by two, and one tael costs 300 yuan.
.”
After Wei Cheng heard this, he walked to the bedside with Erbao in his arms and sat down. With one free hand, he touched Cai Yan's greasy hair and said in a gentle tone: "No matter how expensive it is outside, it's just not enough for me.
So, it’s just icing, as long as you like to eat it, no matter how expensive it is, you don’t have to worry about it.”
Cai Yan's pretty face instantly turned hot, and her face, which had a little baby fat due to pregnancy, seemed to have two red clouds hanging on it.
"Oh, don't touch my hair. It hasn't been washed for more than ten days. It's very dirty."
Cai Yan came to his senses and hurriedly turned his head to avoid Wei Cheng's head-touching attack.
I don’t know what the rules are, but mothers who are in confinement cannot wash their hair or take a bath. The only way to clean them on weekdays is to have someone wipe their whole body with a hot towel. Of course, Mr. Wei is happy to do it, but unfortunately, the house
There are too many maids, and there is nothing to do without him.
Wei Cheng retracted his hand, looked at it, smiled, and wiped all the oil in his hand on Dabao's face in Cai Yan's arms.
This brat is really good at eating it, so he didn’t know how to leave some for your father to try.
The second child is still good, just eat three meals a day, and basically sleep the rest of the time.
It is said that as the facial features of the two children gradually grew, Wei Cheng was surprised to find that his twin sons did not seem to look much alike. They were probably so-called fraternal twins. The eldest child looked a bit like Wei Cheng, and the second child looked like
Cai Yan has a round face and is very delicate.
Wei Cheng even doubted whether Erbao was a girl, but when she lowered her head and opened the swaddling clothes, she saw that little Ding Ding, well, it was a boy.
Erbao, who was unswaddled by Wei Qing, thought Wei Qing was playing with him, and kicked his short legs back and forth desperately, with a naive smile on his lips.
When Wei Cheng saw this, he laughed with Cai Yan and said, "Yan'er, look, Erbao's little short legs are quite strong."
Cai Yan was so angry and funny. This husband was simply not upright. How could he call his child short-legged?
"Second Master, the guests have almost arrived. The master of the house asked me to come and let you know."
The voice of the housekeeper Wei Mu came from the yard. Wei Cheng heard the words and put the second baby on the crib.
"Yan'er, you watch first. I'll be back with you in a moment."
Cai Yan shook his head, carefully covered Erbao's belly with a small blanket, and said, "Husband, it's important to entertain the guests. There's no need to come back in a hurry. My aunt and sister-in-law will definitely be here soon. I just need them to accompany me."
Wei Teng nodded slightly and said, "That's okay, I just have something to deal with. I'll ask Hao Niang and Chan'er to accompany you later."
While he was talking, there was a burst of laughter and footsteps in the yard.
The visitors were none other than the wives of the Wei family, as well as women from several aristocratic families such as the Cai family. The eldest aunt Wei Min, the younger aunt Wei Ning, and the elder sister-in-law were also accompanying them.
"Young, Yan'er, you are still here. There were many people in front of you. I thought you had already passed, so I called the female guest to come over and see Yan'er and the two children." Wei Min said when he saw Wei Cheng.
Wei Cheng bowed his hands to everyone and responded with a smile: "I'm going over there right now, and you just happened to be here, so Yan'er will be left in the care of the aunts."
The women bowed and saluted, and when they heard this, they all said with envy: "Mr. Wei, you are a good husband. I remember when I was in confinement, my stupid head only knew how to drink and have fun, and he never cared about my child.
"
Wei Cheng chuckled, cupped his hands and said, "You guys are so complimentary."
···
When Wei Cheng came to the front hall, the huge banquet hall was already full.
Today, almost all the people who can be present are here, especially the several aristocratic families that are attached to the Wei family, and the heads of their families are also present in person.
Because there is another program today, which is to choose wives for Dabao and Erbao.
There is nothing wrong with choosing a virgin who is three to six years older than Dabao and Erbao as the future head wife, which can also be said to be a child bride.
Because once selected, the two virgins will stay directly with the Wei family and help Cai Yan take care of the two future husbands.
Wei Cheng was not very interested in this custom and wanted to refuse it, but I heard that he had done it when he was a child, and that anyone from a wealthy family would do this, so after thinking about it, he decided not to do it.
If you think about it from another perspective, it would be easier for your future daughter-in-law to enter the house early, so that you can cultivate relationships and avoid not knowing how to respect your elders in the future.
As for why the girl he loved when he was a child didn't marry him later, Wei Cheng also asked about this, and the answer he got was that the girl's family had offended He Jin and was executed by the whole family.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Regarding this, Wei Cheng could only mourn silently in his heart, mainly because he had no memory of his predecessor, so he didn't feel very sad.
Seeing Wei Cheng arriving, everyone present stood up one after another.
"I've met Lord Wei!"
Except for the people from the Wei family, everyone present bowed to him at the same time. The scene was quite shocking.
Wei Teng bowed in return, then walked up to the eldest old man Xie, helped him up with his own hands, and said: "Mr.
Old Master Xie laughed and said: "If you can't bear it, then I'm afraid there's nothing in the world that can make me bend down."
Wei Cheng chuckled, helped him sit down, walked to the chief seat, and sat down next to his father Wei Hao.
"Let's have a banquet." Wei Cheng ordered the butler Wei Mu on the side.
Wei Mu handed over and left. After a while, various delicacies were presented to him.
Drinking fine wine and eating delicious food, all the guests chatted with each other. The main topic was which girl from the family Wei Qing would choose as his daughter-in-law today. If a daughter from his own family could be chosen, wouldn't it mean that one person would succeed? Chickens and dogs ascend to heaven, etc.
Of course, these are all small aristocratic families and wealthy businessmen, but the real big aristocratic families are too indifferent. Several patriarchs headed by Old Master Xie are silent on this matter. They believe that the Wei family has already chosen. It's useless to say more.
After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.
Finally the most exciting moment came.
Wei Hao smiled and said, "Everyone, let's get started."
After hearing this, all the guests looked forward to it.
Outside the door, little girls were lining up and walking in. The oldest among them was only seven or eight years old, and the youngest still needed a maid to hold her hand before she could follow the line.
Wei Cheng sighed quietly, why should he choose that one more? Is this really good?
In fact, what Wei Cheng didn't know was that these little girls had been screened one after another. If all the girls sent by wealthy businessmen from aristocratic families were called, the banquet hall might not even be able to accommodate them.
First, the experienced nuns felt the bones to judge the body shape, and eliminated a batch first.
Then, people from the Wei Family Friendship Hall conducted home visits and eliminated another group.
Finally, I asked people to check their birth dates, which eliminated many people.
At present, these twenty-odd little girls can be said to have been carefully selected. No matter their family background, appearance, or character, they are all top-notch. Only then can they be selected and reach the fourth round.
At this time, Wei Min, who was sitting next to Wei Cheng, looked over and said: "Cheng'er, of the three women you named, we only found two. One of them was Zhang Chunhua. We asked all the Zhang families in Hanoi County. Human, there is no such woman."
Wei Qing nodded slightly. He also asked his second uncle to try his luck. After all, she was a strange woman recorded in the Three Kingdoms. If she could be found to be his son's wife, that would be good, but there was nothing she could do if she couldn't find her.
"What about the other two?" Wei Cheng asked immediately.
Wei Min pointed to the two little girls in the team.
Wei Cheng raised his eyes and couldn't help but his eyes lit up.
Wei Min said: "This is the daughter of the Bu family in Huaiyin County. The ancestor of the Bu family is Bu Shucheng, one of the seventy-two disciples of Confucius. It is a pity that this daughter is only a concubine. It would be better if she is a direct descendant."
Wei Cheng looked at the submissive little girl in the team and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if she is a direct descendant. As long as she can be my son's good wife, she will be several times better than those direct descendants."
When Wei Min heard this, he understood the same truth. Although the Bu family has a scholarly family, it is just a small aristocratic family. In the eyes of the Wei family, it is not worth mentioning at all. If Wei Cheng hadn't mentioned it by name, the Bu family would not have done it this time.
Someone is selected.
"Where's the other one?"
Wei Min pointed to a tall woman at the back of the team.
"This girl is quite generous. It is said that she is very talented. There are few girls of her age who are so eloquent."
"Is she Queen Guo?" Wei Cheng asked with interest.
Hearing this, Wei Min responded with a smile: "The queen is just a joke called by Brother Guo, but this girl is Xiuhui, and she is worthy of it."
Queen Guo's biological father, Guo Qi, was once the governor of Nanjun. He was born in Julu County, Jizhou, not far from Hedong County. He was also a good friend of Wei Min.
This time Wei Cheng was able to select Guo Qi's daughter, and Wei Min was very happy. Compared to the naive step trainer, he hoped that Queen Guo could be selected by Wei Cheng. At least he knew the truth, and the Julu Guo family was also a famous family.
.
Just when Wei Cheng was about to look away, he happened to meet Queen Guo, Guo Ai, who was looking up.
(Queen is the word.)
Wei Cheng looked at her, and she looked at Wei Cheng without any timidity. She seemed to know that Wei Cheng was the person with the most say in the whole scene, so Guo Ai, who was only six years old, showed a sweet smile to Wei Cheng,
He even bowed generously and gracefully.
Wei Cheng chuckled.
The interaction between the two naturally attracted the attention of many people, especially Guo Qi in the crowd. Although the Guo family came from a famous Julu family, they were obviously weaker than the Hedong family, so they were arranged to sit in second place.
Row.
When his daughter Guo Ai came in just now, he was worried that her daughter would cause trouble if she was too out of touch, so the whole audience watched her closely.
When he saw his daughter actually greeting Wei Cheng, he was so frightened that he gasped and almost choked to death.
Unexpectedly, Wei Cheng spoke.
"Little girl, do you know me?"
Wei Cheng waved to Guo Ai at the back of the team, gesturing for her to come forward and speak.
Guo Ai was startled at first, feeling the doubts and curiosity projected from all around. She took a deep breath, and then walked to the front row openly.
"Guo Ai has met Mr. Shijun and often heard his father say how good Mr. Shijun is. Although Guo Ai has never met Mr. Shijun, he has admired Mr. Shijun for a long time under the influence of his father's ears and eyes."
"Oh, does your father really mention me in front of you often?" Wei Cheng knew that she was greeting him, so he deliberately teased.
Seeing that the lie was exposed, Guo Ai's pretty face turned slightly hot, and she looked at her father in the crowd with a guilty conscience.
Seeing this, Guo Qi stood up with a wry smile.
"Guo Qi has met Lord Wei."
Wei Cheng looked at Guo Qi, smiled and nodded, "Brother Guo gave birth to a good daughter."
Guo Qi was startled when he heard this.
There were also exclamations in the crowd. Could it be that Wei Cheng has taken a fancy to that little girl? Isn't this too casual?
Old Master Xie and other members of the aristocratic family also frowned. This was a bit different from what they had imagined.
Wei Cheng looked at Guo Ai again and asked, "Do you know why you came today?"
Guo Ai pursed her lips, glanced at her father Guo Qi secretly, and then replied: "I know, before leaving home, my mother told me in tears that if she could be selected, it would be better for me and my Guo family."
, are all a great thing, so I want to be selected."
The smile on Wei Cheng's face gradually faded. After thinking for a moment, he asked Guo Ai: "You are very sensible, but I don't want you to make such hasty decisions about your life. How about this? I will accept you as my disciple first. What will happen next?"
, I will leave it to you to decide. When you grow up, if you fall in love with a younger brother, I will promise you to him, how about that?"
"Wow!"
All the guests were in an uproar. What was so different about this woman that Wei Cheng valued her so much?
Guo Qi in the crowd was also stunned. He knew that his daughter was beautiful and smart, but he didn't expect that Wei Cheng would pay such attention to her. He even made the decision to accept his daughter as a disciple out of respect for his daughter's wishes.
In this way, even if she cannot become Wei's wife in the future, her daughter will at least be...
Princess!
This word flashed through Guo Qi's mind, followed by excitement and excitement.
"I am willing, master, please accept my disciple's bow."
Guo Ai lived up to the reputation of Xiuhui and gave Wei Cheng a big gift without waiting for his father to say anything.
Wei Cheng smiled with satisfaction, then raised his head and looked at Trainer Xiaobu who was looking longingly at Guo Ai's back in the team.
